Well, couldn't it be that the effects didn't last after the Stand was defeated?
Just like how if you leave their range, their powers stop. Like Bruno's zippers. It seems like an effect they're actively maintaining.

He never sleeps. He never dies.
Battle doesn't need a purpose; the battle is its own purpose. You don't ask why a plague spreads or a field burns. Don't ask why I fight.
I dunno whether that applies to plain old injuries caused by Stands. Supernatural injuries and those directly related to Stand powers do require conscious effort to maintain, but for normal injuries like cuts, bruises, and breaks, I don't think that applies.

In his case, Holly did play nurse and that's when Kakyoin the MILF hunter was born.
All they have to do is flex really hard and the wounds will close on their own.

That only applies up to Part III. Afterwards...
Yeah but what's a few dabs of a hankerchief and soup going to do when you basically got the same ORA treatment that Steely Dan did lol
Anyway, it's obviously an oversight but it's fun to think about what it means for Stand powers.

He also got bandaged all over his body, but yeah, your point still stands, pun intended.
Speaking of JoJo, did the one scene with Risotto and the IT guy retcon the idea in PHF that Murolo had set La Squadra against the boss for his own amusement?
So I finally got around to seeing the latest episode. Ghiaccio's ranting was hilarious. As someone who could obsess over those kinds of dumb semantic arguments as a kid (for example, I remember once getting annoyed that iron is pronounced "I-earn" while the same letters in irony are pronounced "I-ron") I'm finding that trait weirdly relatable.
His ice-manipulating powers are kind of generic by Jojo standards (compared to "magically impregnate a woman with your enemy's DNA to create a shapeshifting mechanical baby you send out to kill them", in any case) but they're used in a way that makes for a lot of tense and interesting scenarios. As an aside, I still find it hilarious how slow to react the main characters are whenever a new enemy Stand shows up. The car's windows are covered in ice in what looks like the middle of spring or summer and Giorno just comments that he'll open a window to warm things up? Seriously?
Also, if Ghiaccio's Stand is his suit and Stands can't be seen by non-Stand users, does that mean normal people would see him skating around buck-naked? Would make for an amusing imagery in any case. And while it was obviously intended to make the scene look more dramatic and preserve the mystery of his identity, seeing Trish's dad slum it up wearing a cloak and squatting like a hobo in his own house looked pretty weird.
Hoo boy, I had completely forgot about that. Man, that seems relatively normal in retrospect compared to later on.

Frankly, it's more stylish than what we eventually get.Hoo boy, I had completely forgot about that. Man, that seems relatively normal in retrospect compared to later on.
For no reason than the nakedness in the shadow and the deep voice, my brain jumped to Dio.

I got a random question about The Grateful Dead's Ability. Let's say you are like really old, 80 or 90 give or take. Can you use the Grateful Dead's Ability to make you like young forever as Prosciutto became old but then become young again to fool Mista?
Chibi V.Sion Army go!
It doesn't seem you can become any younger than you were when GD first started aging you.

I'd have to re-read the Anubis fight to see if the theory fits, but we could headcanon it as Star Platinum being inside Jotaro and boosting his toughness.
You definitely see it stabbed into his gut with him bleeding though.

That's been my headcanon for the longest time not just for SP, but for Stand users in general.

Star could still passively enhance his resilience or prevented any vitals from getting hit...
It’s not like anime characters receiving damage that would be crippling or fatal IRL but shrugging it off is a particularly rare occurrence.
I completely forgot the little detail about how Jojo characters can squirt blood out their bodies with pinpoint accuracy.
