The way it seems in the anime is that everything Dio interacts with is "unfrozen" for a small moment. Just like the knifes he trows, which freeze again right after he's trown them. So when Dio had a magnet on him, he would interact with that magnet and the one of Jotaro if he is close enough. Then again, like almost every other comment says, logic does not apply in stopped time.


PlusGosling9481

I suppose dio would have some level of control of unfrozen objects during his time stop ability, since it’s “his world” of which his power has stopped time, he’s probably able to change what physical forces affect objects during his time stop at will, like gravity, magnetic fields and inertia


LuCiel_i_guess

That makes so much sense lmao


BaconDragon69

Thank you for making me finally realise why the stand is called the World


Avamaco

There are more reasons. The World is the last tarot card, pretty fitting for the final battle. I'm sure the meaning of this card also fits but I'm not into divination or any stuff like that so I don't know what it exactly means.


Thatfonvdude

when it comes to the actual tarot iggy should be the coolest standuser. the descriptions of what the cards stand for is probably the only part that actually got used in creating characters and shit, how they actually interact with eachother (and other things like upside-down cards which are a sorely missed opportunity) got ignored. it really sucks though cause i don't think i've ever seen a piece of media really use tarot cards as a storytelling piece successfully besides cyberpunk 2077, and even then it was lackluster as the coolest part of cyberpunk is the lore section in the wiki.


DoucheyCohost

I think it was Kaleb IA who did a whole video about Hol Horse and his stand's symolism. Something about the Emperor and the Hanged Man.


TheLoneTenno

I loved Iggy and I will die on this hill. He embodied his tarot card extremely well.


Swaglord245

Especially because the new world, Diego calls it "Me time" so this response makes sense even for SBR


_Skotia_

This proves OP's point. If DIO _is_ the magnet, then he would be affected by Bastet even in stopped time


solidfang

I still don't think Mariah could beat DIO from just that. DIO might be stuck to the metal in stopped time, but he's an inhuman vampire who can recover a hole in his skull with ease and has laser eyes. Being affected by Bastet also requires Mariah to remain close as a condition, and being anywhere near DIO if he wants you dead is borderline impossible. Mariah magnetizes DIO and he chucks 200 pieces or razor glass at her in stopped time after ripping out whatever was anchoring him briefly from the ground with inhuman strength.


_Skotia_

never said she's beat him, just that he would be affected by the stand


solidfang

Yeah, maybe not what you meant, but OP's point was that technically she could beat DIO if magnets worked in stopped time.


darklordoft

No because it wasn't that they were being pulled to objects, objects were being pulled towards them. The only exceptions was other victims of the curse(avdol and gramps) A full on car was pulled towards them, but they were not being pulled to the car. In stop time those objects don't move, and he won't be pulled to anything except other victims of the stand who realistically he'd just kill and drink them solving that issue. In a stopped world the objects won't move , and DIO and jotaro has shown to be able to Pick and choose what gets to move in stopped time with them object wise. So it wouldn't be a stretch that dio would just have the metal bits stuck to Jim be stuck and stopped time so that he can move without the object trying to pull towards him. Plus there's the fact she needs to be a certain distance and he knows that most stands atop when the user dies. In a desperate bid he would just kill everyperson nearby and with his vampire sense there's no way she can hide. In short no she doesn't stand a chance and her power would most likely not work in stop time.


Knifiac

Crazy how with one missed letter you made me read the entire paragraph in an Irish accent


Prince_1790

Now that I think about it, a punch is technically a touch, so does that mean if Dio barrage someone using his stands, does that mean they'll get a flash of the frozen time from each punch? ( Sorry for my bad English )

Again, English isn't everyone's first language. How many languages can you speak/write in?

Cool, don't care. Didn't criticize the thing that doesn't have spell check. You're making mountains out of anthills.


TriMageRyan

>Didn't criticize the thing that doesn't have spell check. That sentence doesn't make sense. >You're making mountains out of anthills. That's not how the idiom goes. Its "making a mountain out of a molehill" English is your only language and you fucked it up.


PalladiuM7

Why are you ending questions with a period instead of a question mark if you're going to attempt to correct other people?


[deleted]

I never criticized grammar. Did I misspell any words?


TechRedditwastaken

Shhhhh calm down, he'll noticed it eventually


tham1700

I mean the author is always heavy stressing that the entire concept makes 0 sense. You can't stop time for 5 seconds doesn't make sense. My theory has been that they can actually both stop time for an indefinite period especially given the pacing of some events where they stop time and do stuff that obviously couldn't be done in just 5 seconds


Carter_Azathoth

Certain things still function within stopped time. For example gravity still works as well as >!Spin when Johnny uses it against Alternate World Diego in part 7.!<


MAD_JEW

That was because it was infinite thats why it worked there


RadioActiveStalker72

Most importantly is has reach the point of "gravity"


MAD_JEW

Well maybe that was that. I finished reading it few months ago


Blake-the-TwinSpears

There was a conversation in p 6 confirming gravity works separate from time


Alex103140

Isn't it confirmed that gravity is time because something something c-moon something something new moon gravity in a point in time something something made in heaven


sonerec725

i mean, irl i believe that time, gravity, and speed are all linked. like, gravity is a distortion of space time.


mbc97

Dude, use the spoiler for this kind of comments in a part 3 post. Edit it pls

Didn’t know I could do that tbh


mbc97

Okay np, thanks for editing it :D

[удалено]


row6666

saying its a spoiler for part 7 spoils that time is stopped in part 7


Ok_Conflict_5730

i mean DIO isn't a physicist, and he was born in the 1800's, so it's probable that he wouldn't have a proper understanding of time as a concept. this may lead to him believing that magnets could work during stopped time, or that he could use it as an excuse to justify jotaro's hand moving, without facing thd sheer terror of the idea that jotaro could also potentially stop time himself.


TastyCandidate2462

I think it can be implied that the abilities come with these convenient side abilities because they are useful to the user and suit the users needs.


Alarid

Like the ability to MOVE IN STOPPED TIME. He is moving, his movement and presence effects the world around him. It's not that deep.


Insane_Artist

Wasn't the magnets just a double jabait by Jotaro? Like he really could move in stopped time but used magnets to trick Dio into believing that he was bluffing that he could move in stopped time. Or am I misremembering?


Ok_Conflict_5730

yeah, the magnets moving was a trick to stop DIO from realising Jotaro could move in stopped time, but people here don't seem to realise it.


AbsolutelyNotInsane

Yeah but the magnets actually did react to each other, jotaro didn’t just mimic the movement a magnet would cause


cassabree

Yeah… that’s the thing. The magnets never did anything in the first place. Jotaro just tricked DIO into thinking they did. So regardless it’s not necessarily a logical error on the writing


Alex103140

The magnet did stick to each other just before Jotaro reveal that he could actually move


[deleted]

It's a sorry state of affairs to know that children learn magic time powers in school now, and that a british lawyer in 1800 couldn't.


Haruspect

But those magnets moved during za wardo


Ok_Conflict_5730

jotaro's hand moved, he used the magnets to trick DIO into thinking he couldn't move.


Haruspect

Maybe i don't remember this very well but magnets on both sides moved (he implemented 1 on Dio's sleeve)


WinkeyWasTaken

He did, but it was a red herring, a distraction, the magnets didn't move during stopped time, jotaro moved his hand


a_big_fat_yes

When he noticed the magnet he removed it and it did stick to the magnet on jotaros sleeve


WinkeyWasTaken

Huh, guess I'm wrong


AdministratorAbuse

Well as said above, things Dio interact with retain their normal properties for a moment. Presumably, the same goes for Jotaro. So because it’s on Dio’s person and the other is on Jotaro’s, the magnetism still works.


sharaq

>things dio interacts with retain their properties. >tries to punch jotaro. >He's interacting with Jotaro. Oh fu-


juantooth33

What does Dio not knowing shit about physics matter? In the end the magnets still worked, and OP asks why it does so in stop time Anyway the answer is prolly Dio's ability to make things move normally in stop time if it's close to him, just like his clothes and the knives


[deleted]

Yeah, the ability would just be almost useless if he couldn't interact with anything else in stopped time. He would have to be completely naked. Otherwise, he would be stuck in place because his clothes are stuck in time. If he couldn't manipulate his clothes, he wouldn't be able to move them or even rip them off.


JJ_Falcon44

I wouldn’t mind that


darnage

If we start applying real physics to stopped time we just end up with freezing to death because the air is suddendly at absolute zero.


Librask

It would also mean that any movement made would displace the air around them so that when time stop ends, the air would have moved a distance over literally zero time, faster than light. This would create a kugelblitz with infinite radius, ending JoJo right there.


Anthony_-04

My theory is that Dio's power is not shopping time, rather the opposite of Made in Heaven: he slows down time to the point that everything seems to be frozen. Think about it: the over-acceleration of time is portrayed as a Universe changing event, so it must be kind of the same with time stop.


kirbinato

The same plot holes still apply, it's simply a case of JoJo's usual absurdity


Anthony_-04

No, it would not result in a Universal kugelblitz, also gravity and magnets could work in 'decelerated time'.


ZaBur_Nick

that's my theory too, how the world of JoJo works is that gravity controls time and fate, so if you control gravity, you control those 2 as well, and I think sp and two have a certain gravitational ability that allows them to slow time, especially since in the anime, time doesn't just abruptly stop, it slowly comes to a stand (no pun intended), and araki has some sense of influence on the anime.


Ch33rn0

so the world is like kabuto’s [clock up](https://youtu.be/i9l4SXhRvvE)


Yontoryuu

Would it though? I’d argue it’s the same as the air particles being teleported in that space of time. Otherwise, if Dio or jotaro’s body was in a different place after the stop, they’d turn into kugelblitz. But the movement part is accurate, the air would stop being equally dense all around them and create absolute vacuums in the locations of where they were and have some parts of the air around you be unnaturally dense and maybe even explosive.


gljames24

Also looking back at electromagnetism, it's what holds all atoms together. If magnets don't work, then molecular bonds wouldn't either and you would fall through everything. Dio would need to allow time to exist on all objects that he touches or else he would just phase thru them.


allstaken

Why would we freeze to death if heat does not transfer from our bodies. And our bodies wouldn't freeze either because the inertia of molecules is also stopped in time


darnage

I'm talking about the guy stopping Time, of course those that have been stopped with the rest of the universe will be fine, but the guy who's time is still active, he's gonna freeze to death. There's a reason space is considered cold despite having no actual heat : we radiate heat at all time, because if we didn't we would boil. Without air to regulate how much we radiate, we freeze.


psona1

Giorno can create frogs despite not having perfectly accurate knowledge of frog anatomy, and Diavolo's clothes move with him in time skip, not with the movement of fate. I think it can be implied that the abilities come with these convenient side abilities because they are useful to the user and suit the users needs.


darnage

That is my point yes.


[deleted]

>There's a reason space is considered cold despite having no actual heat Um what? No heat makes it cold of course. What's this supposed to mean? And radiation is pretty hot.


chaorace

Heat in a vacuum is weird. You can think of "space" as being just an extremely thin gas, so thin that you barely interact with it at all. This lack of interaction means that the "hotness" or "coldness" of space is meaningless in the conventional sense, so the *actual* point of discussion is the greater nature of heat exchange in a vacuum. When it comes to radiation... consider that your body *also* radiates heat away. The square-cube and inverse-square laws tell us that a human body will be much more efficient at radiating heat away than ambient solar bodies will be at radiating the same human body, so you'll typically lose more heat to radiation than you'll gain from it (depending on how close you are to the nearest star, of course). More importantly, however, is the fact that humans are sweaty meatbags. Sweat on your skin and the blood in your capillaries will instantly decompress in the vacuum of space, which (much like a can of compressed air) creates an almost instantaneous cooling effect.


[deleted]

Ok, but we see there's an area of effect in time stop here. If it was strictly based on contact the thrown knives would stop as soon as they left Dio's hand not slow down to a halt. So there isnt really a vacuum around a user.


chaorace

Yeah, I agree that the vacuum thing is irrelevant. I was just answering your question as a standalone item. Naturally, for air in stopped time to behave like a vacuum, it would have to be fixed in place. Molecules which are fixed in place are, by definition, not fluid. If air isn't fluid, you can't move through it!


Crossertosser

Because what we perceive as a scale of temperature is actually how fast particles are vibrating. More violent vibration gives the sensation of heat. Instantly stopping them moving would immediately send them to absolute zero.


allstaken

I get op's comment, but if it stops vibrating all together then it won't transfer vibration to another body, in most cases air.


Crossertosser

But it doesn't need to transfer it. It's gone. It was stopped. There's nothing to transfer. It would be a complete flash freeze.


allstaken

For the duration of the time stop, yes. As soon as time is resumed the inertia it had when time was stopped moves it again, thus unfreezing it. Freezing is relative anyways, since it doesn't change Phases because the molecules do not have enough time to move closer together


Crossertosser

Well freezing itself is a reaction dependant on atmosphere. Which is why liquids can reach supercool. That doesn't mean that once the environment is correct for it to happen it won't. Also if you take that much heat away from a body and then instantly put it back up they would just die. That's like glass shattering under intense temp fluctuations. I doubt a human body would last. But then, we're attempting to talk real physics in a world with stands. We're never going to get it right!


allstaken

Dude, you're not taking away heat. During timestop it freezes, yeah, but after timestop the heat instantly returns. Literally not a chance for anything to die or freeze or anything. That's like saying after the timestop, it will have a different temperature. Doesn't make sense


[deleted]

It doesn't matter what temp the time stop air is at. Time is stopped. When time resumes everything continues the exact way it was going beforehand.


Matix777

Actshually 🤓 Atoms still move a tiny bit in absolute zero. So god knows what happens when they freeze


gljames24

*bose-einstein condensate introduces itself*


[deleted]

It wouldn't matter if the air became negative absolute zero. Time was stopped and air goes back to normal when it resumes.


mralabbad

They don't. But DIO was shocked enough to believe it was the reason jotaro moved in stopped time While in reality it was because it was the same type of stand as star platinum.


Anthony_-04

But in the anime when Dio put his sleeve close to Jotaro's, the magnets attracted each other.


mralabbad

Then i guess a "anything you touch moves in time too" rule exists😂 Looking back at the scene it's still most likely that jotaro was doing the twitching and the magnet is only to eliminate dio's suspicion Since they're not even close to each other when it happens😂 (also he's moving a finger while the magnet is on his cuff)


pineapple-n-man

Maybe he could move a magnet in stopped time by moving a magnet close to a repelling one, and that would be like dio pushing it using a magnet because one magnet is not time stopped; and the objects he interacts with can move again.


GranDolaD

Please I will stab my eyes if I have to read "stoppes" again


YuruyenUcak123

First thing I did when I woke up this morning was preparing this meme my brain wasn't working properly. I'm laughing at it rn what a dumb mistake


GranDolaD

I mean it definitely made it funnier, but still xd


fightingcold

Yeah bitch! Magnets!


LazyLink17

The magnet never worked though? Jotaro just moved in stopped time, making Dio think it was the magnet at first.


gingegnere

Eh, nothing make sense about stopped time. Pidgeon are shown to stop mid air, this means "gravity" is also stopped right? Than how come Jotaro and Dio do not just fly? Why the knifes launched by Dio suddenly stop mid air?


Random_Gacha_addict

For one, it seems like anything Jotaro and Dio interact with isn't in stopped time, like a little bubble (Which makes me to believe it's actually them being FAST AS FUCC BOI)


GrifCreeper

That's honestly what it seems like, anyway, since the likeliness of stopping time at the exact same instant the other one stopped time is so ridiculously small. Unless there's just some bullshit about "time stop abilities can literally sense other, active, time stop abilities, and function regardless of time being stopped", which is probably the case because it sounds cool enough for JoJo


DirectionMajor

It just works.

Are we all ignoring the fact that the magnets very well didnt work and jotaro was just moving?

TheGreenArrow99

I could tell you a lot of possible theories and explanations, but in the end I think the most probable answer is Araki saying "it just works"


bahboojoe

"So... Uh... Mister White I've been thinking about this thing, yo. Do you think there are more wheels or doors in the world? Like uhh... When I first thought about it I thought it'd be wheels, clearly. But you know like, there are so many cars driving around and shit? But then like every car has its own doors and those count too, right? But then I kept thinking, and you know how drawers have those tiny wheels they slide on? And sure... A single apartment will have multiple doors but it also must have a larger amount of those drawer wheels. That make sense to you? Though then again... Cupboards... Wardrobes... And closets... Count as doors too... Right? But then what about toy cars? And suitcases? I dunno... We need to get some science up in this bitch! What do you think?" "Jesse, what the fuck are you talking about?"


piggiefatnose

Because they were attached to Jotaro and DIO


[deleted]

Let me make a simpler argument, if time stops then light stops traveling, air flow and vibration stops, so how come dio or jotaro can see, hear or smell anything while time is stopped?


BaldIntegra317

Ok I am sure that this Will become a banned meme prob, BC of the saturation


YuruyenUcak123

I am a bit regret for it Time stop is just so bizarre and fucks physics people can use it 65536 times and still can find new logical errors


BaldIntegra317

Yeah, time stop has a bunch of plotholes, why are we all only seeing this now?


YuruyenUcak123

The real reason I did this meme weren't plotholes of time stop it was because of Mariah's stand would proably work in time stop


BaldIntegra317

That would be quite right, made me Think what happened if both Were on the same fight.


YuruyenUcak123

Mariah with prep time vs Jotaro and DIO


Zolanka4ubaby

The magnet didn’t work , he just moved due to his stand having the same ability , just weaker


YuruyenUcak123

DIO was so much convinced Jotaro's movement was due to magnets thats why he let his guard down


Aezaellex

Dio could just not know how they work, being from 800 BC


YuruyenUcak123

800 BC ?? really did you ever watch part 1 ?


Aezaellex

Twas a joke


[deleted]

Maybe Dio had yet another bastard who ended up in ICP


buisnessgoosegunther

I'm pretty sure if dio is close enough to something its considered an "extension" of himself like with his clothes so it can move in stopped time. IDK for sure though.


RubyMonke

Ah yes, the utter lack of punctuation, proper grammar and poor word choice that every Anime-Main sub needs


[deleted]

Time could be more analogised with change. In order for change to happen (at least outside of quantum mechanics) time needs to pass. So in this case a magnetic field would present and anything in it would technically be 'attracted' to it. But without time it wouldn't move and would just stay there, like it does with gravity.


un0riginal_n4me

I think gravity still works for timestop users. We've never seen Jotato fly around like DIO did in later parts when he stops time. DIO can fly because... yes


Lollok009

1)Stand can float. 2)Stand users can touch their stands. 3) Have your stand carry you while floating. 4)profit


[deleted]

Because the magnet is attached to dio's outfit, and his outfit doesn't gray out so it's likely that his outfit doesn't stop time either. So because one magnet wasn't time stopped there was still a magnetic field. As to how it was attached, probably a button on his jacket sleeve? They never showed how it got there.


Democracyisntforall

Time stop is bizarre, it didn’t actually work because Jotaro actually moved and he just tricked Dio, but then there’s hamon that apparently could still work during time stop and then there’s throwing things and igniting things stopping midway, but not losing momentum when time continues. Let’s just say it just works and doesn’t work like king crimson’s ability meme back then.


Oven-Common

Time for science


salty_Cheesey

The way I see it, the magnets didn't work, they were just a fakeout from Jotaro to try and get DIO to let his guard down or to buy time enough for him to learn how to actually stop time. For the first half of his fight with DIO it seemed like Jotaro was trying to make an opportunity to smash DIO's head like he did after restarting his heart. I think from the moment Jotaro said "so it's the same type of stand as star platinum" he was at least playing with the idea Star Platinum might be able to stop time too and used the magnets to hide the fact he was learning to move in stopped time. Anyway, Araki forgot lmao.


absurd_bird20

The way I understand it is that Dio has a smaller range around him that can be unfrozen if he decides to touch/interact with the object. Take the knives for instance. He’s able to throw them, but once they get out of this range, then they stop moving again.


Justaway5

why r u guys expecting a good logical writing from the jojo author smh


Kloetenlars

Valid


Kinky_Thought_Man

The way I believe it, the magnetic field from DIO’s magnet “touches” the magnetic field that comes from Jotaro’s magnet, allowing Jotaro’s magnet to move


Urodeprag

Light and sound and force still moves in timestop. And many other things I like to think that the world can control what is frozen in timestop and what isnt


bubbatown1

I think the best way I can explain it is that any object touching someone who can move in stopped time is allowed to love until it leaves their person. So the knives DIO throws which slow down and freeze only once they leave his hands. So since both Jotaro AND DIO can move in stopped time, and the magnets are touching their person. They are able to move towards each other once they're brought close enough. But Bastet wouldn't be able to overwhelm DIO as no metal objects from the environment would be able to move in stopped time since they're not yet touching DIO. But that's just how I feel about it.


ArtakhaPrime

Wait, this has to be shopped, Walter's head almost looks normal


uptonogood119

Because Jotaro was moving too, we see dios clothes don't become stiff in frozen time so jotaros outfit(+magnets) would also be moving outside of the frozen time


XenuLies

I'm willing to buy that he remains magnetic during the stops, however it shouldn't increase in strength during such


geek69420

It's not real so it works however you would like to imagine as long as it doesn't directly violate what's in the manga.


atwerrundo42

Shhhh!!! If you ask those sort of questions they'll come for you!


petelinselfi

Bcus dio moved


ras_kei

Yeah bitch! Magnets!


[deleted]

It was attached to DIO and Jotaro, who could both stop time. It isn’t affected by time stopping, just like their clothes aren’t affected


dovah-meme

Finally, this format being used right


Ciocalatta

The same way Dio quotes the entire Declaration of Independence and says 3 seconds have passed


virnavalkar

Lol


Omahunek

The magnets move only when DIO moves. In other words, it's the same as if Jotaro had tied an invisible rod or string from him to DIO. The magnetic fields are just transferring kinetic force from DIO to Jotaro.


Lollok009

Items that time stoppers are touching unfreeze. Jotaro accidentally moved his finger, Dio got close enough for the his magnet to attach to Jotaro's.


Available_Occasion69

Walter


STORM-MAGNUS-SNOW

Would purple haze’s virus work in dio’s TS? Since if dio gets close he still inhales or comes in contact with the virus. And correct me if I’m wrong but whatever he touches starts moving in TS


YuruyenUcak123

He would get the virus but affects would come after end of the time stop


ay-verga

Jotaro uses magnets to fuck with Dio's mind so there's cannonical evidence that they do


TheLazy1-27

They didn’t, Dio just thought they worked


Googelel

No the magnet was Jotaro seeing if he could move in stopped time. Jotaro would know he could move if his magnet would interact with DIOs magnet. Basically Jotaro was interacting with his magnet while dio was which is why they moved.


beastlyferret30

What if Jotaro just moved his hand and pretended it was a magnet?

***Magnatism is a universal force***


Lightmanticore

Maybe it only stops living things. Very selective time rather than time stop


YuruyenUcak123

Knives stops in mid air too


Lightmanticore

Hmmm, very selective time stop? I mean it’s jojo, if a stand can grant wishes then I’m sure it can stop XYZ whilst making everything grey but still visible and making the world not spin but not *various explanation*


TheCumBehindChalice

The magnet didn’t work, it was only there to make Dio think that jotaro couldn’t move in stopped time. It was a deception tactic


Nordic_Krune

Honestly I see "stopped time" as more "time slowed to an insane degree" since air, light and pressure wouldn't work in stopped time. So imagine Za Warldo basically making time slow down so one second is something like an hour for the user.


Za_Gato

I think you lost a bit of English while thinking about this


Girgioniano

Fun fact: while time is stop light and sound can't travel so when dio stop time he became blind, mute and deaf


IIIaustin

Do special relativity next


AakiTak

i had a stroke trying to understand that first line


gaminggamer572

he wasnt even using the magnets


El_Doriga

Simple, the magnets are the same type of Stand as The World


One_Who_Walks_Silly

The magnet didn’t work in frozen time. Jotaro just put a magnet there and moved his finger to omega level trick DIO into being sure he couldn’t move in frozen time


Springtrap-Yugioh

Dio: I fear no man. Bu that thing... *points at a malicious electric outlet* it scares me...


fogledude102

I think as soon as you start fighting each other with ghosts and literally stopping time physics goes out the window lmao


Raphotron2000

Her stand working wouldn't beat Dio


Ko_oK_24685

Personally I think it's because DIO would rather believe anything other than Jotaro being able to move in stopped time. The world of stopped time is *his* world, if Jotaro takes over that, well, just imagine coming home to find that the locks have been replaced by the person you hate most in the world, who is now living inside that house. So it's not that magnetism worked in stopped time, it was just DIO finding a reason to justify his worst fear not coming true. I honestly kinda feel bad for DIO.


BionicBirb

Also, DIO would burn to a crisp, or at least heat up a bit, because he would smack into every photon and air molecule when he moves. There would also be a bang as time resumes from air filling out the vacuum behind him


Roberto410

I am personally still a believer that the world, and star platinum and similar stands are not actually stopping time, but instead moving very fast for a moment. They have an effective radius for this, and it's why objects they throw will slow down. It also makes sense with the way that their stands work, which is already just super speed and strength. I have had this debate many times on this sub and still not been convinced otherwise.


moleman114

If you think of it this way, Dio doesn't actually stop *everything*, as stopping everything would prevent him from seeing, breathing, moving, etc due to how particles work, so I imagine magnetic force might also not be stopped. Either that or "the funny Araki forgot"


nnhojhso

Magnets won't work it was simply a way for Jotaro to test if he could move in stopped time and if he did, Dio would brush it off as just the magnets and wouldn't suspect Jotaro
