Even as a big ol' pretty idiot, the only reason he didn't wipe out the crusaders was his obsession with Dio. He lost his hold on reality when he hit sand Dio, and he did it again when Polnareff was taunting him about Dio across the sunbeam.

The same goes for The Hand too. It's crazy powerful and could probably wipe out almost anything easily, but Okuyasu is too dumb and chill to use it to erase people's heads.

Is he able to use Cream to swallow things without being inside of it? He could've distracted then obliterated Polpol

If The World can affect the Pillar Men, he can just beat them to a pulp, stop them from pulling themselves together and wait till sunrise. Dio can just get a parasol while he runs for better safety, and have The World stop time to make sure the sun gets them.

Goddamnit. One episode away.

It was a lot harder to confuse the two threads back when this had no subtitle, and the subtitle's about anime now which sorta muddles it further.

To be fair, not a really bright idea to start the eternal Dio vs pillar men discussion in that thread when dio's abilities haven't been revealed yet.

Even if people are spoiled on the time stop, I think the steamroller ROAD ROLLA-DA is the more iconic surprise. Time stopping characters abound in anime; hell, DBZ had one that was the biggest chump character of the entire Frieza arc.

Well, they don't know what The World does, but, yeah, The World (and Star Platinum once Jotaro decides to actually figure out what his Stand does instead of making up abilities like suck in air and make stretchy fingers) make Pillar Men irrelevant. The more interesting part 3 Stands can take them out as well.

Just punch ghosts, well, not necessarily. After all, the Pillar Men had their own "stands" (sandstorm, slice arms, cool hair) too that they were working with that aren't all that great in the scheme of things but they're still somewhat creative with.

People in the anime thread keep going on about how the ripple could be used, and I'm just waiting for them to get chuffed when Joseph actually tries it and it doesn't work.

That supplementary chapter about stands mentioned the ripple and the stone mask as ways to get stands. Since we know that the intended purpose of the stone mask was to create the ultimate life form, could Kars's ultimate form's abilities be a stand, or caused by one?

Nope, he was just an evolved pillar man and a that's about it. No point in trying to rationalise something with something that existed after the fact when it boils down to it.

Yeah. I guess I was mostly just musing about it since the stone mask was mentioned in the stand chapter :shrug:

It's more or less a retcon to try and say "Had anybody used these to the full extent of their power then they would gain a stand from it"
