Doggy Style
Doggy Style (ドギー・スタイル, Dogī Sutairu) is the Stand of Rai Mamezuku, featured in JoJolion.
Appearance
Doggy Style takes the form of a humanoid with an elongated and almost featureless face, save for 6 small eyes and beanpod-shaped protrusions from the sides of its head. It has a heart-shaped torso, whisk-shaped appendages for arms and the kanji for "bean" (豆 mame) written on its shoulders within a circle.
Abilities
Skin Peeler: Doggy Style's full capabilities are currently unknown, however its primary ability allows Rai to "peel" his own body like an apple, unraveling his appendages into "wire rope" that he can control and manipulate.[1]
Rai first uses it while on an aerial lift to retrieve a strawberry from a bush several feet below. The most advanced usage of this ability is when Rai turns his entire arm into a makeshift crossbow, from which he fires a fork using his mouth.[2]
Rai is also able to completely unravel himself as shown when he feigns death from Poor Tom's Ozon Baby. He seemed to be able to unravel everypart of his body besides his eyes and teeth, making it look like he had been crushed to death.[3]

Trivia
- In a 2013 interview for NHK Educational TV's SWITCH Interview: Tatsujin-tachi with composer Akira Senju, Hirohiko Araki discussed how music has influenced JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, and revealed Snoop Dogg's album Doggystyle is in his music collection which he listened to when writing Vento Aureo and its gangster protagonists.[4]
- Doggy Style's ability to unravel its user's body into a string-like substance is similar to the primary ability of Stone Free.
