[Slow pan of the Jotaro figure while “Stand Proud” plays in the background]
Yeah, I don’t really have a regular version of a Jotaro figure, but he is posted up.
Jotaro Kujo, protagonist of Stardust Crusaders, and the 3rd main Joestar, because when it
comes to fathers, these guys are just pushed out of the picture.
Jotaro is one of the strongest Joestars, but he doesn’t fight alone.
He fights with the stand of all stands, Star Platinum.
Araki regards Star Platinum as the strongest stand there is in Jojo, but the further we
go on, the more that statement goes down, but we don’t have to worry about further
parts.
This is on Jotaro and Star Platinum at their strongest, but now how strong is that.
[Stand Stats] So, in Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure, there’s
a chart for the statistics for every stand.
The statistics are based around Power, Speed, Range, Durability, Precision, and Potential.
Ranks having A as the highest, and E for the lowest.
While there’s a lot more to these charts, like how they differ for every stand or part
from the looks of it, this is just a little thing to show you exactly where Star Platinum
would be.
He has an A in everything, except for Range which he has a C. His range being C is due
his punches not being as a effective once him and his opponent are separate from each
other by a decent amount of feet.
[Strength feats] Let’s get into his strength feats to start
this off.
In Jotaro’s second fight, he fights Kakyoin, stand user of Hierophant Green.
With a finishing blow, he blows out the side of his school off of the force exerted between
Star platinum’s fist and Hierophant Green’s head, which launches Hierophant Green.
It also makes Kakyoin burst with blood.
So, this is something I had noticed when Star Platinum does consecutive punches versus when
he does finishing blows, but I’ll being over that later.
For another feat, this one is interesting.
So, with a ridiculous amount of speed, Star Platinum pulls it’s arm from the water and
punches a lot of water into the exit of a huge drain that connects to a manhole.
This is some ridiculous Archie Sonic type of thing, because I couldn’t exactly estimate
how fast you have to be to carry the water from your arm and use it in a punch.
Though it isn’t difficult to understand how it happened, it’s the same effect of
you blowing liquid out of a straw after holding it.
So, with how odd this feat was, I had gone even further with it.
Starting this off with the manhole, manhole covers are usually around 4ft in diameter.
Star Platinum punches with the water, and then it shoots out from under Rubber Soul.
With how far the water had launched him, I’d probably say that the water peaked in height
around 15ft.
Since Jotaro is 6’4, and Rubber Soul is generally around the same height.
Then the water itself doubled their height, and had a couple of extra feet on him.
Working with that information, I was able to estimate that Star Platinum had been able
to punch 1,410 gallons into that exit.
Now 4 things: One, Star Platinum’s one punched had carried water along with his whole body,
so with how fast it was going, it created some sort of continuous flow of water for
the blast.
Two, is this possible?
Most likely, no.
Through a different way, yes.
I see Boyle’s Law working in this somehow.
You could just use some sort of pump an achieve the same effects.
Three, I’m going to put the conversions on the screen here due to the me not using
the same units as the rest of the world right off the bat.
Four, you might be thinking that 1000 gallons is a lot of water and wouldn’t even be possible
in this case.
I thought the same thing, until I saw a visual interpretation of what 1000 gallons of water
looks like.
Here’s the same picture, I vividly remember that exact part of the Wet-n-wild I had gone
to.
When poured like this, the effect is almost nothing, but when it’s being forced and
concentrated through a hole that’s only four feet wide, it’s powerful.
Plus, that’s not even taking it into account that this is Star Platinum doing this with
a ridiculous amount of speed and power.
One example of power is when the Stardust Crusaders went against High Priestess.
The stand was stated to have teeth harder than diamonds, but you see Star Platinum just
running through these teeth like it’s nothing.
While diamonds are widely known as something that would be unbreakable, that’s not exactly
the case.
So, Josuke…
I don’t know what to tell you, but the pressure resistance on diamonds is ridiculous.
So, while they aren’t unbreakable, they’re crazy.
So, diamonds can withstand all around crushing pressures above 600 gigapascals.
Along with that, diamonds are the hardest minerals on the Mohs scale.
Converting over, diamonds withstand over 87 million psi.
If these teeth are anywhere as durable as diamonds, the strength of Star Platinum is
as crazy as I originally thought it was.
Now on the topic of where Star Platinum stands on levels of strength, I’d put him around
building level since he’s already proved himself on that.
Though I’m going to say that he’s probably somewhat higher than average building level.
I’m basing this off the belief that, while it doesn’t look like it, Star Platinum pulls
punches.
I’m going to be going over that right after his speed.
[Speed feats] There are a few feats putting Star Platinum’s
regular speed and reaction speed around supersonic.
We could even go back to where we were talking about the feat in the Rubber Soul fight where
he’s so fast he basically bends the physics of water to his benefit with just speed.
There’s also the fight against Strength, where his reaction time and thought process
is high when it came to acting on using the broken glass.
But, I believe that all this falls in comparison to the feat of being able to keep up with
Silver Chariot in the Anubis fight.
Silver Chariot is a stand that easily matches up and is reasonably above the speed of light.
Star Platinum also fights Silver Chariot with his shoulder opened, but this feat is anime-only
and was just another time to bring up Star finger again.
Silver Chariot having an unarmored shoulder let’s one of his arms double in speed, which
is something Star Platinum kept up with.
So, when there’s things like this, this makes me question certain numbers the manga
shows.
Star Platinum and Crazy Diamond are similar, but Josuke says that Crazy Diamond could possible
clock in above 300 kilometers an hour.
Like, I don’t think it’s possible that it’s above, I know it is.
Now since I had shown both the speed and strength of Star Platinum, I want to get into an Ora
analysis.
[Ora Ora Analyzation] About Star Platinum’s “Ora Ora”, which
is a flurry of punches he’s known for, and I call it “Ora Ora”, because that’s
all he says when he does it.
So, I believe that Star Platinum pulls his punches for most of part 3.
Well what do I mean by pulling punches, notice how all the minor enemies that die aren’t
killed by Jotaro.
Joseph has killed, and Polnareff has killed.
Jotaro doesn’t kill.
So, Jotaro has had multiple times where he beat people up, but he never actually had
any intention to kill a lot of them.
The time that Jotaro had an intention to kill, he was constantly making one shots that would
kill any other stand user, this was when he was fighting DIO.
When he wanted to kill, he left giant holes in DIO, and he beat his head so bad that his
skull was basically deconstructed.
His “Ora Ora” has potential to one shot kill all of those that he fought previously,
but the difference in this is that it’s Annoyed Jotaro Vs. Blood-lusted Jotaro.
Another extra thought is that he extends his flurry of punches just because he can, it
probably makes him feel better.
He usually ends his “Ora Ora’s” in a finishing punch, but that finishing punch
alone could’ve knocked them out.
He punches without sending them off first, but then launches them with one punch.
To finish it off, how strong is his Ora Ora when blood lusted.
You know Jotaro’s strongest “Ora Ora”, it’s not when he was punching a person,
but a thing.
[ROADA ROLLA DAH]
Jotaro is punching against three things here, if we don’t consider the force of the road
roller being thrown.
If we are, then hold that as the first thing.
There’s the weight of the road roller, the punches from The World, and the punches from
DIO. 44 thousand pounds, or 19 metric tons from the road roller.
From how well Jotaro was doing, he could punch the road roller off, but then you have DIO
and The World punching him too.
The World and Star Platinum have somewhat around the same strength, so you now equalled
out the force between the two, but now you have a road roller in the equation which puts
Jotaro on the losing side easily.
Adding on to that, you have DIO’s strength too, and we know from Jojo that vampires are
stupid strong already.
DIO in his prime was City Block level when it came to his attack potency, and DIO in
part 3 was around 25% away from being back in his prime.
Jotaro punching 22 tons off him was already a huge thing for him, but then everything
else adding onto him shows exactly where he stands.
We had multiple hints that Star Platinum was stronger than The World, but that’s just
fact at this point.
He also stops time.
Now before we finish this up, let’s run through some of these durability and precision
feats for those that plan to use Jotaro for scenario fights.
While I had already brought up his combat at light speed, he also caught a bullet at
point blank range with two fingers.
He powers through a telekinetic shotgun with his stand alone.
He captures a microscopic stand that tries to enter his ear, and doesn’t crush it immediately.
Focusing on that, Star Platinum has amazing control of his strength to not crush something
that small easily.
He’s also able to see the stand even with it being that small due to his enhanced eyesight.
To finish it off, he gets punched off of the roof of a building and Star Platinum cushions
the life out of it.
Now going over this all, the best Jotaro is when he had just came off of the fight with
DIO.
He has his time stop and he’s still at his peak strength being at that age.
Along with that, he had been using his stand constantly throughout that whole part.
Now if you guys want to see someone go up against Jotaro, put them in the comments.
Make sure that you don’t just go ahead have him go against some planet buster, because
what’s the chance or point to even cover that.
Also, I’d like you guys to comment a character to go over next, we can also go back on previous
parts if that’s the majority vote.
In my opinion, I want to go over Wamuu and some of the Stardust Crusaders before I finish
off part 1 through 3 with DIO.
Also, for those interested I have a second channel.
This channel is generally circulated around games, fan orientated things, and going over
things that wouldn't make it to a video.
So, if there's questions that don't make it into a video, I'm probably going to be going
over it over there.
I'll see you guys in the next one, until then, peace out and God speed.
So, I’ll see you guys in the next one.
