Trivia

  • A running theme in main antagonists' Stand powers have the power to manipulate time and/or space at some point (The World and The WORLD, stopping time; Killer Queen Bites The Dust, looping time; King Crimson and Epitaph, erasing time and looking into the future, respectively; Made in Heaven, accelerating the flow of time; Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap and Love Train, accessing alternate timelines and creating a gap in space, respectively; The World Over Heaven, infinitely stopping time). This pattern stems from Araki's belief that a main antagonist should be overpowered and that if one were able to control space and time they would be unstoppable
  • On the flip side, sometimes protagonists and minor characters have the power to manipulate time/space (Star Platinum, stopping time; Cream, creating a void that can erase any space; Crazy Diamond, restoring the history of people or objects; The Hand, erasing space in a limited range; Moody Blues, chronological broadcasting; Mandom, rewinding time; Joy Division, swapping things in space, and later, time).
  • In Stardust Crusaders, most of the first Stands introduced are named after the Major Arcana of the Tarot (early on, also modified by a color or metal name). Rider-Waite-Smith numbering is also used (the Justice card visual manifestation features the number eleven). Later on, the remaining Stands excluding The World, Cream, and Tenore Sax are named after Egyptian deities.
  • In Diamond Is Unbreakable, certain Stands are revealed to have emerged from contact with the Bow and Arrow.
  • In Stone Ocean, Stand Discs are introduced, bringing powers to anybody compatible with a Stand, and, as with one case, making it possible to obtain a second Stand.
  • In Steel Ball Run, Stands are only developed when somebody is affected by the Devil's Palm or makes contact with a Saint Corpse Part. Most of the Stands in this story do not overtly fight in battles, but provide their users with powers instead.
