[Introduction] After I had finished the video on the antagonists
of JoJo, I basically had room to do anything after.
Since JoBros isn’t exactly optimal and I might as well just go over each group separately,
I wanted my own choice on the groups.
This video was going to be on La Squadra, but I feel like it’s something I should
be saving for the future.
So, instead I’ll be talking about the 9 Glory Gods.
[N’Doul] The first Glory God is going to be N’Doul,
so you know that I’m going about this in order of appearance.
I’m sure that I had mentioned in either my N’Doul video or favorite stands video
that Geb is one my favorite stands in Stardust Crusaders.
But why I mention that now is because as of recent I’ve been on the huge focus of stands
being the product of their users’ spirit.
It’s extremely obvious, but when looking into it, it’s extremely interesting.
Geb being like N’Doul, flowing like water and extremely deadly when he has the chance.
The flowing like water thing being a way bigger point of focus for me because of how much
I already like N’Doul, but I’m also a huge Bruce Lee fan.
I mean…
Well who isn’t in this world.
N’Doul being such a calm character and his history while not that large was interesting
to me.
To live each day without fear, but also with no direction.
To not have any fear is powerful, but for it not to be of any use is just unfortunate,
and it’s real so I love it.
Also, do you realize how strong of a stand user you have to be to be able to potentially
take out the entire Stardust Crusaders.
Kakyoin was out, Avdol couldn’t fight, Joseph couldn’t fight, Polnareff for sure had no
chance with that type of range, and if we’re being real, if we wanted to end Part 3 right
there, they all could’ve been ended there.
That’s some power and I’ll always love it.
[Oingo & Boingo] The next two gods are Oingo and Boingo.
I don’t have anything on Oingo aside from I liked what he did because it was funny.
On Boingo, I think I’m just more interested on the fact that he’s such a young stand
user in the world that he’s in and his stand is pretty cool.
I also like that so many people try connecting points with the predictions to see if they
were telling the future of the parts ahead.
I like when characters or stands give people something to talk about like that so that’s
another reason why I can say more on Boingo instead of Oingo.
Though I will say that outro made for them was great and I like that they were basically
their own entity aside from JoJo because of how they functioned.
I’m not sure if other would share my opinion on it, but I would pay for a one shot or series
to see the misadventures of Oingo and Boingo, or well, just Boingo.
[Anubis] The next character, or well…
Stand is going to be Anubis.
The concept of Anubis is cool, and I was interested with the idea of it, but I focused a lot more
on what introducing Anubis did.
There is no real reason for any of the Stardust Crusaders to start duking it out with each
other because they’re reasonably mature and competent enough not to do something like
that.
With the introduction of Anubis, we finally had access to Polnareff versus any of the
Stardust Crusaders.
I’d love to see Araki’s Jojonium excerpt on Anubis when it comes out and would want
to see if there was huge backing from the fans for Jotaro versus Polnareff.
I obviously didn’t live in that era when Stardust Crusaders was coming out and I don’t
have access to the comments that people gave Araki, but I feel like it’s something that
people would ask a lot since I remember people saw Star Platinum as the power stand instead
of the all-around stand, and Silver Chariot was the precise speedy stand.
Then you find out that Star Platinum just has all of the juice possible, especially
since he had to hold back on Polnareff since he didn’t want to hurt him at all.
Also, Egyptian gods are pretty cool to me, so seeing Anubis be what it is was massively
interesting to me.
[Mariah] The next stand user is going to Mariah.
Surprisingly, I actually did like Bastet.
I’m not 100% on the stand, but the ability to have a completely unorthodox stand like
that and be able to whoop Joseph and Avdol reasonably well is interesting.
She’s also the reason I noticed a trend in enemy stand users with tempers because
of how apparent hers is.
The one thing that I will always say though about both her and Bastet is that I wish that
we had a physical form of Bastet, the cat, not the stand.
To see Bastet emerge and tapping stuff to add the outlet to it would’ve been cool
to see off of the animation and all that, but obviously we’re not going to see that.
That’s just something I always keep in my head.
[Alessi] The next stand user is Alessi and I don’t
like Alessi, but I like Sethan.
I don’t have many enemy stand users that I just don’t like, but Alessi is definitely
on the list for me.
I also feel like this is an easily shared opinion that the fight with Sethan should’ve
involved Joseph.
The hype that people would get off of that, I can’t even imagine it.
Though kid Jotaro and kid Polnareff is cool enough for me, especially since we can’t
do anything about that.
[Daniel J. D’Arby] The next stand user is Daniel D’Arby and
he’s probably top 5 enemy stand users in all of Part 3 for me because of how large
the fight between him and the Stardust Crusaders was.
I remember how many people were confused about the fight and were talking about some “Man,
this is a poker game, what the heck.”
The stakes of the fight was one thing, but it was all about mental fortitude.
D’Arby was one of Araki’s first signs of being able to create stands like the ones
we see in Part 4 and 7 in specific.
D’Arby and Osiris bank off playing the brain game better than anything and to see a fight
that isn’t a fight really was great.
The answer isn’t as simple as find a weakness and cut it out, Poker is already an intense
game to begin with, with having this with stakes that big had it as one of the tensest
fights we see in Part 3.
I also like the design of D’Arby a lot.
[Pet Shop] The next stand user is Pet Shop.
I know without a doubt that I’ve mentioned that Horus is one of my favorite stands ever
and Pet Shop is actually Top 3 for me for enemy stand users in Part 3.
I know that I come here at talk to you all about how much I love depth of character,
personality, and things like that, but the simplicity of
Pet Shop is
probably why I love it so much.
I see a lot of characters in fiction these days and there’s so much to go about them
and it’s amazing, but with how linear Pet Shop’s motives are, I think that’s what
makes me love it so much.
Can you imagine how happy I was to see that Pet Shop is actually one of the most busted
fighting game characters of all time too?
I thought it was funny cause I thought it was just an overestimation, but it’s actually
ridiculous and now it goes down in history.
And if you do want to see me talk about fighting game characters, I have a second channel for
game analysis and all that so…
You know.
But final notes, I’d buy Pet Shop’s hat for my dog.
It has nothing to do with Pet Shop directly, this is just actually a note I had written
down for some reason.
[Telence T. D’Arby] The final Stand user is Telence T. D’Arby.
I give him credit for F-Mega and OH THAT’S A BASEBALL, but I just like more in every
aspect.
Though I do love seeing Telence’s inferiority complex and how he feels about his brother.
That’s some real stuff and it would’ve been cool to see him in other stuff, but he’s
an enemy stand user so he had an inevitable fate of getting the beat down from the Stardust
Crusaders.
Final thoughts, I love his introduction and I think it’s around top 3 introductions
from all the enemy stand users in part 3.
That’s it.
[Outro] Thank you all for watching, I’ve been thinking
about all of the stand users here for a while and wanted to get out everything I had to
say on it and I feel amazing for doing so.
Doing these videos for everyone watching is great for me, but being real, when I do make
these videos it’s way more for me if anything.
If I keep thinking about a certain character in whatever I’m getting into, I get it all
written down and can make a video off of it.
It’s the reason why I have a vault of scripts of videos I have yet to make, hopefully I’ll
get to it all in the future.
Tell me who you want to see next, I plan to finish talking about the Phantom Troupe
and then I’ll be talking about the Akatsuki, but I do want to see what’s the JoJo recommendation
from the people.
Hopefully, I’ll see you
all in the next one, until then, peace out and God speed.
