Trivia

  • In an instagram post, Tadashi teased the two visuals for the 2018 Guide Pamphlet for the SABFA school and stated that he had "manifested the stand of hair".[4] In a later post, he explained the vision he had. He wanted to express the idea of how the women in the world could manifest the superpower to make themselves more beautiful, where the make-up brushes and lipsticks move freely as if the hair had a will of its own, as if it was a Stand. He named the Stand,「The Makeup」(ザ・メイキャップ), and also gave it stats.[5]
    • Destructive Power: A - "Beauty doesn’t need destructive power, but it’s certainly a heartbreaker."
    • Speed: A - "Speed of analysis of faces is light speed."
    • Effective Range: C - "Close range feather touch type."
