Detective Koichi can read people like a book Always wandered why Pol didnt try to contact Jotaro after he got KC'd (is this ever mentioned?)
The manga mentions that any attempt to contact Jotaro could have alerted Diavolo to his survival, so Pol had to go into hiding and cut himself off from the rest of the world to survive since Passione apparently has a ton of sway all over Italy.

this makes 0 sense after Divalvo thought he was dead though
I think that's supposed to be the point. Passione apparently has eyes everywhere, so if Pol tried to contact Jotaro, he ran the risk of Diavolo finding out that he survived. That's why he went into hiding instead.

It's not the best explanation, but it's the only excuse Araki gave us and its at least serviceable.

yeah, i'm willing to accept that. I just need to learn more about how he survived and got his legs without being able to contact the speedwagon foundation

So Polnareff's lost limbs also reflects the same for Silver Chariot?
Has it always been that way for Stands in the past?

i was gonna say wait till they tell you more, but it's as they said lol Diavolo has ears and eyes everywhere in italy

Yeah, but he makes sure a beetle will explode out of his opponent's head before he starts trash talking.

Giorno is efficient.
Can't make mistakes if you wanna run the mafia

Been that way since abbacchio was able to cut his hand to deliver the key, at least. You couldnt have dismembering in SDC cause they had no healer

Are you saying Polnareff has been reincarnated by the arrow with a fat ass this time?

Wait... is that what the 2nd arrow shot does? Booty injection? New Giorno should be nuts then.

I mean...Abbachio can't even keep his hands off him. Did you see the way he was grabbing Giorno's chin? It was like he was threatening to make out with him.
Oh yeah, he couldn't control his inner tsundere, and with the rest of the gang doing monologues about Giorno after 1 or 2 missions, i'd say Dio would be proud LOL the charisma is hereditary

I'm still laughing over people trying to figure out how King Crimson works in the last few pages. Its been so many years of the discussion and people hoped the anime would explain it much better, but nah, people still misunderstand it.

So how the fuck did Polnareff get his arm back? He clearly lost his two legs AND one arm, but in the present he has both arms. ???

I think the flesh buds are tied to whatever the fuck Jonathan's original stand was supposed to be.
I've never seen the flesh buds as anything but vampire power but it's nice to think that maybe Jonathan's Stand would've had something to do with controlling cells that are outside of his body... Kind of reminds me of Esidisi actually

I honestly think the vine stands are heavily tied to Hamon usage, which both Jonathan and Joseph were capable of with Holly probably getting a vine stand like that through hereditary reasons. It stopping at Jotaro is probably because of him having more diluted Joestar genes.

Iirc vines are the reason some people think GE is somewhat similar to what Jonathan's stand would be

Some sort of "WTF is his stand?" shenanigans. I think the flesh buds are tied to whatever the fuck Jonathan's original stand was supposed to be. Za Warudo is Dio's stand.
I'm pretty sure if those were tied to Jonathan's stand/the hetmit purple Dio is shown using once they would look like plants rather than meat. They were also destroyed by Hamon, so they're almost certainly tied to Dio's vampire abilities.

According to this wiki, it's vampiric. Remember the beginning of DiU with Okuyasu's mutated dad? Iirc, Okuyasu's bro mentioned specifically it was because DIO's genetic material in the flesh bud going crazy after he died that fucked his dad up.
