[QUOTE=New Cidem;49024417]Hamon is so limited in its application compared to stands, so you get over it pretty quickly.[/QUOTE]
I think that is only if we look at all of the applications of all stands, compared to all applications of Hamon.
What about comparing one of the Hamon users to one of the stand users?

Well, given that the Hamon user has to be powerful beyond imagination to harm humans I would say even most low tier stands would come out on top, barring non-combat stands and stands that kill the user. Joseph, Caesar, etc. would be better off using like... a gun. The reason Hamon was dropped so early was because Araki had to keep suspending disbelief and stretching the uses of what was originally sun-powered anti-vampire electricity. Remember when electricity allowed you to remotely control humans, accelerate the healing process, project liquid as a projectile, walk on water, and make your limbs stretchy?
Besides, I don't think he could have written a justification for a power that involves [i]sending super powerful fishing lines through an interdimensional portal made out of a pan of water that is strong enough to lift thousands of pounds and yank it through a portal into a pocket dimension that exists inside of someone's mouth[/i] without using stands.

What about when [sp]Suzy Q got possessed by[/sp] Esidesi?
They needed to do something weird so she didn't get fried by the Hamon.
I don't know about the other Hamon users, but even at the start of the series when he wasn't experienced in Hamon, Joseph was able to take hits from Santana who supposedly hit harder than most rifles.

I was only arguing about the previous thing, this makes sense.

I thought the implication was that the Hamon would [sp]kill her because the vampire mind control shit is in her? I dunno.[/sp]
Also that description isn't even the most convoluted premise for a stand in the series.
Something about positive and negative hamon nullifying the negative effects?

Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan Episode 7 is coming December 4th
Reposting from the SU thread-
[QUOTE=Magikoopa24;49047559]Amethyst uses a whip, is purple, and once attempted to become a hermit with Steven. She's goddamn Joseph's Stand. I knew the writers were nerds, but I didn't expect anything more than the extremely close DBZ references.[/QUOTE]
In other news I just finished up episode 7 of Stardust- [sp]I suspected the orangutan would have factored in later, but I didn't expect the naked shower scene with the 13 year old. Oh, Japan, you never cease to creep me the fuck out.[/sp] Personally, I liked the fight with The Moon stand the most, probably because of how they discover the user and the fight after that Jotaro has. Gonna try and binge more as the week goes on.

Just wait until part 7, when [sp]Funny Valentine, the President of the United States, attempts to rape a 15 year old![/sp]

I know you have a lower legal age Japan, that doesn't mean you should make your damsels in distress young![/sp]

[sp]Child nudity[/sp]is seen as innocent, not creepy there. Which is true, it's only sexy if you're a[sp]pedophile.[/sp]

I actually kinda liked the scene because it was just one giant homage to the famous shower scene in Psycho.
Psycho but with [sp]a rapist ape[/sp]

Funny, later on there is a shower scene [i]with[/i] a psycho.
Bruno, Trish and Diavolo[sp]and Doppio?[/sp]confirmed as playable characters

Any ideas on why Doppio is here?
Is he going to be playable? Assist character?
Who cares about new characters, Heavenly Dio sealed the deal for me
I really can't care much about eyes of heaven because it's a style of game I'm not super into, why can't it just be a normal fighting game?
I don't remember when Trish's hair changed from the rectangular thingy it was to the pointy thingy that most people know her by.
I went through the whole part without noticing that

While I'd like a proper ASB 2 (since HFTF2 probably won't happen), Eyes of Heaven's gameplay probably allows more freedom on how stands work.

I don't know, and the camera angle also makes it a lot harder to see the crazy poses people are making from what I've seen. there's also just the fact I don't think arena fighters like this are very fun.
[QUOTE=Limed00d;49054003]Who cares about new characters, Heavenly Dio sealed the deal for me[/QUOTE]
A part crossover story overseen by Araki himself is what did it for me.
I doubt the story would be any good.
Would it be interesting and entertaining? Highly likely

Araki oc do not steal
[QUOTE=Oldaveragejoe;49056677]Araki oc do not steal[/QUOTE]
My OC is like Dio but also is actually Sephiroth?
My OC is Noriaki Blakyoin, he's like Kakyoin but he's black and he has heterochromia. His stand Hierophant Green Requiem shoots black cherries that can stop time.
More cutscenes
