Mandom is the Stand of Ringo Roadagain, featured in Part VII: Steel Ball Run.

Appearance

Mandom takes the shape of a head as the centre of what looks like an enlarged, wrist-based item of metallic jewellery, splitting and extending at its ends into long, flowing tendrils. Dark, its face is featureless except where patterned by a number of small spheres resembling eyes; joined by lines to form a pattern of horizontally oriented lozenges.

Ability

6-Second Time Reversal: By turning a hand on his wristwatch (although he does not need to, preferring to in the manner of a psychological switch), Mandom enables Ringo to rewind time by exactly 6 seconds; replacing everything in his range to where and how it was 6 seconds ago; except for the experience/memory of the individuals also in his range.

Ringo may use this ability in any way except to reverse time beyond the last occasion.

Trivia

  • Mandom is a Japanese brand of perfumes and deodorants. Ringo and his Stand's name are likely to be inspired by their TV commercial featuring Charles Bronson and the song "Lovers of the World";[1] named "男の世界" ("True Man's World") in its Japanese release; the lyrics of which mention "living in the world of Mandom".
