Not surprising since HxH was inspired by JoJo. That's why different nen abilities have such crazy rules much like stands. Both are equally impressive and could be insane depending on the user.
[Yoshikage_Kira] Along with: 1)Netero (100 type Guanyin Bodhisattva) 2)Chrollo (Indoor Fish) 3)Knuckle (don't remember the ability's name) 4)All of the nen beasts in the current arc 5)Kurapika's new ability in the current arc
"You work what you have with your stand". Stand arrow upgrades aside, Koichi breaks this rule and I think it has to do with a special midpoint case when the arrow cannot kill the person but also cannot give a proper stand. Koichi was supposed to die when shot by the arrow because he is not ready yet, but Josuke fixed him which results to forcefully extracting Koichi's underdeveloped stand.
Levi.JustLevi Johnny's stand is a stand that utilizes and conducts the Spin. While you still can't train and evolve a stand, Tusk evolved as Johnny improved his spin technique. The more powerful Johnny's spin became, the more powerful Tusk became
Levi.JustLevi I believe the devil palm don't kill the person if he is unworthy, only by exposure to the meteorite grants anyone a stand, maybe Johnny was just too immature and not ready for the full extent of his power. It is one of the ones I'd like to call: Forced Stands, they are imperfect but can be developed if overcome. Holly's was a forced stand, if she was say, healed by Crazy D while she was suffering, she might be able to be like Koichi, another forced stand is a stand disc user (part 6 spoiler) and Emporio is one of the people that overcame the imperfection.
nahhh everybody can develop their stand. rohan did so. he got rid of the "rule" of people having to see his work to be opened up to it and for his ability to unfold.
I feel like the argument comes down to anybody can develop nen to be stronger but the ability for a stand to develop is limited by the direct rules of the stand. Sure nen also has the memory overload thing, but I feel like this can be overcome with practice or rewritten. A stand with F developmental potential will always be E while an A is destined to develop down to E.
@Abdi-Malique Ismail Doesn't that just reiterate what the other guy said? When Polnareff became younger, he was at the age when he recently got Silver Chariot and hadn't used it for a long time. Hence, it was weak
Seah Damian the guy I am replying too said that stands do not get weaker when you age, That they only get weaker when you don’t use them often. That is not correct, it’s just your ability to use them that gets worst when you don’t use them for a long time. Jotaro not being able to stop time as long is because he doesn’t do it often.
Wait a second. "You cannot train stands" How about Polnareff? In his fight with Avdol he (Avdol) says that this ability is the one that has been well-trained for a long time or something like that.
Pink Spirit acts only happen if your stand has high growth potential while requiem happens if you shoot your self with the stand arrow and survive or shoot your stand with the arrow
Pink Spirit Stands with acts are simply stands that don't start of at peak strength and must grow into their full strength. Requiem stands are caused by the Requiem arrow forcefully altering a stand's ability to be the perfect counter to the issues the user is facing at the time. they're not a evolution of your stand, it's trading your stand for a stronger one.
So here's what I'm gonna do....1st I'm going to get a cool humanoid Stand. 2nd I'm going to learn Nen. 3rd I'm going to eat a powerful Devil Fruit. 4th I'm going to do 100 push-ups, 100 sit-ups and run 100km everyday for 3 years. 5th I'm going catch ALL the Pokemons ever. Then and ONLY then, will I be the strongest in Manga/Anime history......
You can't develop stands? What about Pucci transforming Whitesnake into C-Moon then into Made in Heaven? What about the various Acts on Echoes and Tusk?
Tony Molins Those are rare exceptions that occur under specific circumstances. Stands with acts are just stands that haven't reached their full potential and require evolution to do so, and White Snake's transformations were a matter of circumstance with him having to accomplish a specific procedure to enable the change to occur. Essentially, those are exceptions to the rule.
BuscaDiamantes 123 Joseph got Hermit Purple when Dio was pierced by the stand arrow, due to having Jonathon's body and blood, that's how all the Joestars have stands now.
trained as in get stronger via training like weight lifting or something. dev potential is just experience and stuff, sorta like learning how to use your stand better 6 months late lol
Can be development,more fighter is the user more stronger is,Kira has a stand not stronger in fight because he´s donth have fight instint,jotaro and DIO has OP because they ae literally pure fighters
@@axelguadalupe8770 dude jojo have some plot holes but not this. potential in jojo is like a person with a gun, normal shows have the person with the gun learn to be better with it. Jojo is the person exploring every thing about the gun to make it better
Santanas Kicks Remeberance Yeah Genthru's don't even make him immune to his explosions. But his other ability is kinda useful except it takes a long time to explode.
It's true but Genthru is still a very proeficient Nen user, with his speed and by using Ken/Ren/Ko he could be able to beat Kira with one hit before he could press the button or even touch him
Nen: it’s like “D&D”, you can do anything anything you want. But you will need to know the rules. Stands: when they are in the 15%, they are broken. The other 85%, you get the short end of the stick.
"You can't train a stand to get stronger" You kind of can... The duration of time stop increased with used, and atrophied when Jotaro neglected his stand.
You fucking kidding? SC counts as a stand ability because it's fast as fuck, it can take off it's armor and be faster than star platinum and it can multiply itself, that definitely counts as a stand it's really dangerous
@@homoman2825 Yeah and the fact that Star platinum is one the fastest stands and SC can out do that.... SC is underrated. Not very underrated (Magicians red and Aerosmith), but people don’t talk about it enough
Actually, even if you can control Nen, you still can't just see it by default. There's a specific Nen technique you need to learn that lets you see it. You can master everything else about it, but if you don't know that technique, ya ain't seeing it. Also, I'm pretty sure Dio trained The World to extend his time stop length. Also also, you completely forgot Nen contracts. You potentially COULD counter busted stands with this ability, since it basically involves risking, or just giving up your life, in order to get busted powers. For example, Killua can make himself extremely fast, but with a Nen contract, he could get the power to speed himself up so much that he stops time.
Not saying the stand isn't better, but that's on the rare chance that you have it. There are more people who could sacrifice themselves for a busted ability countering a single, unique stand.
Dio wasn't training to use The World, he was learning how to use it, just like Jotaro in the fight with Dio that only could stop time for an instant, but in the end of this same fight he stops time for 2 seconds. Dio always had the potential to stop time for longer periods, but at first he needed to learn how to use that ability, he needed that the time stops became something natural to him. Plus he was not at his full potential because he was not totally fused with Jonathan body. Sorry for my bad english, i can understand it very well, but writing is not my strong point.
I think learning is a better word to describe, but training fits too. My point is, he was not training The World, he was training his control over The World, He didn't make The World better in any way, The World always had the ability to stop time for 5 seconds or longer, But Dio could not do that because he didn't know how to use the ability properly.
Honestly I think it depends on the users of both nen and stands, though I kinda hate my own opinion. If you have a fight with precrusaders Jotaro and Gon, much more even a battle; Jotaro (with The World) v Gon, Gon likely loses. Switch Gon out with Netero, and then I'd say that Jotaro probably loses. Since stands and nen are made in such a way that it varies per character skill and strength, its really hard to compare the toward without having to look at the matchups alone.
TheeOk1 the thing is that nen users are more in the superhuman realm so wouldn't they be just way too fast for him but probably not for starplatinum then again gon could pull a zetsu but then again we need a clear setting for all this man this shit complicated one hit from each could be deadly since hitting a normal human body is crazy nuts and all
@@sbeve779 If you're talking about Hey Ya! then I wouldn't really say it's useless. In my opinion at least. From my perspective, I like to think that hey ya's ability is a reverse love train. It directs every luck towards Pocoloco. That or the fact that it can look into the future, sort of like epitaph
Hmm I thought it means trained in experience Like having superspeed is good and all but if u can't control it ur basicly useless and will hurt ourself more than ur enemy..... That a bad way of explaining lemme get a example Take a look at kira Killer queen have all of these op abilities but he never get experience since all he does is boom his target expect the hands Like when kira first got bites the dust he get overconfident and reveal his identity thinking he can defeat anyone So that backfires and he gets crushed by ambulance Tho this is just my entrepertation of it idk if kira actually able to use his stand to the fullest he would win basicly Welllll that's not counting how fate works in jojo verse tho
There's one important factor, you can't train stands but they can become stronger as you age around your twenties or thirties. If you already have a pretty strong stand it would become more strong as you went into your peak of age. And I don't know if this works but meditation and other mental training could also power you stand but I don't know for sure since it was really went into in the series.
You never know...There might be a nen user as broken as GER in the hunterxhunter universe. I wouldn't be surprised with how creative this power construct can get.
If Nen users could see Stands and vice versa I'd love to see Hisoka v Josuke No real reason I just want to see how Hisoka would handle Crazy Diamond's ability
Sir. Beanie if you think about it any character who can sense energy would be able to sense Stands and Nen because a stand would have energy that could be sensed same for the nen of a nenuser
@@ratedr7845 stand's aren't ghost, they're the manifestation of your mentality Reimi can't see them,she just said Rohan has weird powers Literally the spirit in the Rohan ova can't even see heaven's door
pitou is straight up nen user with 2 stands . but i like there are so many jojo reference in hxh . both are top class . thanks god for making their creator a human . you really send divine angels with so much creativity
I love both honestly. Both are incredibly creative and complex and most of the times characters have to think their ways out instead of overpowering their opponents.
You should do a video on the mundane utility of stands. Like grabbing the remote that's out of reach, moving house made super easy with Enigma, no need for clothing or showers with Yellow Temperance, no need to worry about pockets with Stick Fingers, etc.
They are same in Bizarreness imo. But stands are more interesting because besides the cool names, they look really awesome. Example, comparing The Lock with the inflation Nen, dunno what it is even called, in terms of bizarre and creativeness they are the same but the way JoJo uses theirs is way cooler.
Made in Heaven accelerates time at such a huge rate that it ends the universe and creates a new one, King Crimson just skips time and leaves the result behind
I'd like to see more comic content too. In your powers video you mentioned something about pucci's power having to do with gravity, a video that explained the time acceleration with gravity vs how flash's powers work, going more in depth with the two would be awesome
Meruem or Netero vs Dio or Giornno or one of the other dudes with a broken ability, Rohan maybe; Who would win? it all depends on one thing: who ever plays it safer and acts quicker. There's a chance Netero/Meruem could one-tap any of those guys, but if Dio stops time even he could kill Netero but not Meruem, but Rohan could simple make Meruem kill himself (I think). Some of these fights are matchup dependent, but in most it comes down to who can think quicker. also Meruem vs Ultimate Kars is hype, but tbh I don't think either could kill the other. Actually, if Kars was creative he might be able to, then again by the same logic Meruem could probably find a weakness and possibly one-shot him. Damn that would be an interesting fight
@@erenlemmerdeur6407 turns one into a dinosaur, that one turns 2 into dinosaurs, those 2 turn 6 into dinosaurs, until everyones is a dinosaur controled by dio.
What if the Nen users got shot by the Stand arrow, there is a high chance that they will develop a stand since they have strong life force but i wonder will the stand abilities be compatible with the nen abilities or different, like Killua for example he developed electricity power nen abilities so if he developed a stand will its power be electricity also maybe like Hot Chili Pepper.
It'd be something like say Hermit Purple or Tusk in the fact that they are Stands that augment the user's abilities(Spin for Johnny and Hamon for Joseph). If anything it'd be something that represents their Nen abilities(or main nen ability) and augment it somehow. Also, inexperienced members would most likely be like Johnny who had to train himself in the art of 'Spin' before Tusk's true power was revealed
I don't know about part 7 yet, since i'm an anime watcher only, but a stand like Hermit Purple won't be useful to someone like Killua, in Joseph case he needed a Stand that can help him conduct Hamon since he can't shoot Hamon from the air, he needs to attach it to something, but for Killua it's another story, he can generate and shoot electricity on his own and even from a long distance so he doesn't need vines or wires to do that, on the other hand, Killua developed an ability called God Speed, it's a great ability but it has its drawbacks like it takes a lot of energy and stamina and doesn't last long and leave Killua weakened and out of Juice, we all saw that when he was fighting Youpi so he needs a Stand that can fill this Gap and punch really hard, i saw Hot Chili Pepper jumping around and hit Crazy Diamond the same way Killua was jumping around and hit Youpi, But Hot Chili Pepper was doing it perfectly without drawbacks that's why this Stand will be helpful to Killua and support him in battle, since from what i know about Jojo that the stand has to be useful to the user and satisfy his needs add to that Killua is an assassin so he needs his stand to be something strong, fast and stealthy and Hot Chili Pepper fits these categories.
the thing about it needing to be usefull to the user isnt true, theres this stand called purple haze. i recommend that you read the manga because it is beautifull. also, part 5 never
that is not true, killua used a yoyo and had to touch people to shock then, he never launched the electricity, but if i would create a stand to killua it would relate to being a killer and wanting to protect a friend, maybe a shadow that follows gon, and protect him and attacks anyone the tries to hurt him "the sound of silence".
Since I jus finished HxH I been thinking about this. If these were real I'm not sure which I'd rather have. Nen seems to have more options than stands. With Nen u can train and get stronger and come up with new techniques and with Stands it just is what it is and doesn't really get stronger unless requiem stands or ur luck to get an OP stand (gold experience)...but Nen requires A LOT of training n I'm lazy so I guess Stands? Keep up the great work man! I'd love to see more HxH from you
Well considering that both are a reflection of your character and you have to be an exceptional individual for both to become a user, you'd still have to work hard to some degree. Choosing not to die with an arrow through your neck takes a lot of resolve.
Silver Bean true, realistically I have no fighting spirit at all so I'd die if I got hit with the arrow which doesn't seem that bad 2 me tbh? U either get a cool punch ghost or u die pretty straight forward. The requirement to get a stand is to basically have a strongass will/fighting spirit you don't even have to be physically strong. With NEN you have to train your body and mind rigorously...and theres also the fact that if you use too much of it you could die so...yea I'll take Stands its a little LESS rigorous to get one
Polnareff had a stand that he "TRAINED"(his words not mine) to obtain and Avdul,Iggy,Kakyoin and Joseph (He had HP in BT as stated by Araki it was just that he couldn't see it) all had one before they were introduced so yeah it can happen but it's rare mainly cause Araki changed the concept in part 4,5 and 6 to make it so that most stand users were stabbed by the Arrow like how DIO stabbed his lackeys after receiving the Arrow, Morioh was playing hot potato with the Arrow so it spread like Ebola, You basically can't join the gang unless you develop a stand due to the trial, etc.
"300mph diamond shattering punches" Yeah, that is an extreme understatement. Through more raw proof he has been estimated to reach speeds faster than lightspeed. As for his reflexes against Josuke which is the only viable argument for a 300 mph average speed. Well, all I can say is Jotaro most likely underestimated Josuke. As well as who knows how long or how much his skill with star platinum became without proper practice. Since reflexes are different from a stand. To conclude no big deal I just found that difficult to ignore. Man, I miss prime Jotaro his thoughts and plans to act alone outperform any speed his opponents had. Even Dio, in the end, got played because Jotaro somehow managed to time stop after Dio before he was crushed at point-blank. Not to mention the fact Dio and the world were beating the hell out of the steam roller. To even consider the world and star platinum having near equal strength.
"Through more raw proof he has been estimated to reach speeds faster than lightspeed" Where? In a fight against Tower of Gray where he can't hit a literal bug? Or in High Priestess fight where he can't even catch up to her? Or in Angelo fight where, his stand (made of water, things with mass obviously can't go lightspeed) easily avoids his punches? In MiH arc Jotaro couldn't catch up to Pucci, he should've been faster than him if Star Platinum is "faster than light"? "Since reflexes are different from a stand" 1. 300 000 km/s vs 300 km/h... 2. Reflexes don't matter here. SP should be able to output hundreds of thousands punches per second if it was above light speed, any enemy should get obliterated the milisecond he gets close to SP
@@cccbbbccc5910 exactly. Anything moving at the speed of light would obliterate anything it touched. Especially a run-of-the-mill steam roller. At the very least it would melt metal and ignite the atmosphere.
Lyrunio They're pretty much one in the same if you think about it. Some sort of supernatural ability. If it weren't for Stands being physically manifested, there wouldn't be a difference between the two. When you boil it down, they're both just superpowers.
Talking about how good they are for writing/enjoyment purposes, not power. Nen definitely feels like Stands + Chi or whatever. Nen has the upside of a more thought out development to their power, but also has the weakness of very few fights which really feel like anyone could win. One of my fave HxH fights is Killua vs the darts siblings, because it really felt like anyone could win and the way it concluded was a really sick and clever way to solve it considering the abilities, but then I realized it’s strengths were basically any ordinary stand battle. The path towards getting nen abilities is better, but the actual battles of stands are better. Also stands look way cooler, and their powers get much crazier/creative which I’d consider a plus.
I don't think stands generally grow weaker over time, but rather can just change or the user becomes too weak mentally to be able to use the stand to its fullest potential. Part 6 Star Platinum was a good case as while its Defensive state dropped heavily from an A to an E its timestop ability was increased my three seconds, matching its original limit from the final fight of SC
Stand training is basically meditation, learning more about yourself and displaying that true self. I wonder if Stands are a similar phenomenon to Nen; the latter is created from energy emitted from living souls, basically elan-vital energy from the vital sparks of creatures, while Stands are an outward expression of this vital spark that occurs naturally or activated by the otherworldly or the Divine (Stand arrows, the Christ figure in Part 7)
serious question, who do you can hit faster Star Platinum or Netero. There are two points in time to think about for this, for his prime and another for his age when he fought Meruem since he might have slowed down a bit with age
Zayaan Nashrid i was asking because it is thought the Netero in his prime can punch near light speed with how many punches he was able to throw in such a sort amount of time, remember he just doesn't throw punch after punch be puts his hands together like is praying before each and every punch he throws. Even if Netero is slower I'm sure he could still beat Jotaro what what with the bombw planted inside his heart that took down the monster known as Meruem.
Hanako is best girl problem with that is netero can use in on his 100 type buddah, and since jotaro can't use gyo, he would be getting hit by hundreds of invisible strikes
Kevin1242 netero being speed of sound was debunked multiple times, you can even check the Calcs if you want, netero is around Mach 100, even the jotaro is faster...
I gotta say this video made a lot of good points, except for the fact that it only seems to cover stands versus enhancer types. The biggest drawback of stands is that they're solely based on what their user can perceive. Every stand in some way shape or form is direct confrontation but that's hardly the case with all nen. Time manipulation doesn't mean anything to a master of manipulation nen. Or an emitter type. Or conjurer type. Especially since it takes nen to see nen. And every OP stand essentially requires being up close and personal. Overwhelming power means nothing to better tactics.
>you can't train a stand >you can't get new abilities did you not see part 4? koichi trains his stand and Kira is basically making up powers as he goes
It would also be fun to compare both power systems in the ways they contribute to their respective narratives. Personally, I view both of them as a great tools for their respective mangakas in establishing rules for power and limitations of their characters. Also the combat is more creative than other series since it's not based on power alone, but also mind games and strategy. And finally they limit the absurd power escalation that plagues a lot of other action series. On the other hand, both Nen and Stands can get really complex with their rules and abilities, needing a ton of exposition to convey the way they work to the reader, bringing the pacing to a halt or needing supplementary information (like the stand charts).
I don't kbow if you have talked about it before but with episode 2 of the dub of Stardust Crusaders airing a couple days ago it reminded me of the abilities Kakoyin?, if that is how you spell his name I'm not sure, showed them being that painting ability ever he cut Jotaro's leg but painting a red line over a the Painting of Jotaro he had namely the leg of it as well as the possession ability. Why do you think he has never demonstrated these abilities since then.
that actually makes alot of sense. Even still you would think he would try and use to take down the man that had possessed him in the first place. Out of universe its very very likely Araki completely forgot he even had that ability. In universe it might really be the ashamed thing. As for the other comment, Kakoyin hasn't really shown the ability to cut that precisely with hierophant green has he? I mean he can cut with Emerald Splash but it is in a much wider area and Jotaro would have been cut more and surrounding things would have been cut and/or destroyed.
nice, but you can train with your stand (example: Star Platinum was weakened cuz it has not been used for a long time, meaning that you can train them and keep them at a strong state, and make them even stronger.)
I would argue Gyo could see stands. Whether nen could harm them is up for grabs but I feel like it would function similar to fighting a transmutor but with powers like a conjurer. Naturally the most insane stands win outright against what hatsu we've seen so far. requim is nuts of course as it's just the power to win. I'd certainly like to see other stuff like this!
1:40 Nah sorry this is bullshit. A stand isn't just working with what you have. It can be trained and is practically a users extra ligaments. That's what Polnareff did.
Kevin1242 Provably false. As Polnareff got younger his stand got smaller and weaker. Stands aren't like pokemon or bodyguards. The user has to be a badass for the stand to be powerful (for the most part).
Scott Mental Strength isn't IQ. It's essentially the ability to think. A child isn't thinking as much as an adult. When Polnerref became a kid, his mental strength reverted as well. Tell me how much Koichi trained btw. His stand literally evolved because his mind developed, albeit through stress and danger, but he didn't spend time training and testing Echoes abilities. He had to have a change in the way he was thinking. If Stands changed through training then Koichi makes no sense
Why is this guy saying that u can't train a stand if basically avdol, polnareff, and Johnny trained their stands... And you can train your stand by making yourself physically and mentally stronger since it's your souls physical manifestation
Nen strikes me as having far more potential than Stands. Most Stands really just have one or two tricks. Sure, there's the development potential stat, but that can't be counted on in most cases to actually be effective. If you don't get a relatively simple Stand, you're locked into the same tactic, giving your opponent time to figure out the exact counter required. With Nen, you create your own abilities and can spend time to rethink and add on to those abilities, making the fights more varied over time. Narratively, Nen is also more interesting. Stands are abilities that a character just sort of gets. There isn't training to get them and it requires little thinking to unlock powerful abilities. The only example of a villain training to make their Stand more powerful that I can think of is DIO. Nen abilities are more personal to the characters. These are powers that the characters themselves thought of and decided to create and learn to use. If an ability evolves, it isn't a Deus Ex Machina that the story needed for a character to succeed (looking at you Koichi), but rather the result of difficult training and a lot of thinking. In short, Stands make the person in Jojo, while the person makes the Nen ability in HxH
It's kinda strange how you say stands make the person after talking about Koichi. Stands are a manifestation of their user's psyche, the user does make the stand, the user just changes their fighting style to reflect that. On that note, Koichi is the worst example you could use. Out of all the actual stand Deus Ex Machinas (Looking at you Star Platinum: The World) Koichi's was to show development. Koichi's stand developed only after he was put in situations where he himself was forced to develop.
stands are miniscule in comparison to the capabilities of nen. nen beasts are far more intercate. The fact that he didn't even mention nen beasts proves this
Do the Ultimate Kars vs Meruem. I think I was the first one to ask for it. Clyde the Weaboo did a good scaling, but I think his video got removed. He should still probably know Meruem's stats. That would be a good combo video. You could also include your hypothetical Kars Stand, call it Deep Purple.
you cannot just make more abilities for your stand, bou you should've mentioned that stands tend to evolve with the user under certain circumstances, Stands can gain some sort of update, a new form, and abilities, sometimes is just learning how to use your powers in a new way, but sometimes you just unlock a new ability, wether or not that was always there or your stand just developed it out of necesity, as long as there is room to grow, a stand can change and improve. Also getting older is not the only thing weakening a stand, but not using it for a long time, if Jotaro kept practicing with Star Platinum using the timestop wouldn't have been such a hazzle later on. Stamina also seems to affect stands to a degree, but it really depends.
I would like to see a comparison with RWBY's Semblances, as they're similar to both of these powers but have some different features such as a built-in personal shield system and are by far the easiest for someone to discover.
Stands because a Nen user won't be able to see stands unless they could use Reen which is something Kurapika uses, stands can do stuff like stop time, reverse the entire universe, the power of infinity, and the power of zero which can reverse any action. the only problem is that if a Nen user hits a stand then he/she will feel the same pain
Gshiin Kars doesn't really appreciate nature, he only spared those plants and animals because he sees himself as superior, but he can't be superior to something which he doesn't belong to, such as the aforementoined animals and plants. The first thing het did when he became the Ultimate Lifeform was kill a squirell and turn his hand into a plant, wanting to show that he is now superior to them.
A few of your points would be changed around if we were to consider Stands and Nen to be "made out of" the same stuff, e.g. using Gyo, a Nen user would be able to see an enemy's Stand, while a Stand user would be able to see an enemy's Nen abilities. Nen abilities would most likely be able to interact with Stands as if they themselves were Stands, e.g. Hisoka's Bungee Gum, Gon's Jajanken, would be able to affect Stands, and vice-versa. Though I haven't seen any of JJBA, so perhaps it'd be different from what I'm imagining, I've only seen HxH.
I'm a big fan of jojo and hxh but I'm pretty sure normal people can't see nen so if netero fought jotaro or someone else he might win cause that 100 hands are pretty fast and they might not be able to see it
TheClassicWeeb - it's not very clear. Only some nen is invisible. You can't see bungee gum without Gyo for example but you can see Kurapika's chains when he isn't in emperor's time. So I guess it depends on whether it is entirely made of nen or is nen converted into a physical substance or if it is a physical substance conducting nen.
TheClassicWeeb - Yeah it's got a lot of variations. I'm watching it on Toonami so I've seen the classification stuff recently and done a lot of reading on it.
Zayaan Nashrid Kurapika is a conjuror but he's also a 1% specialist (a rare ability some conjerors and maybe manipulators can have) that means he gets one specialist power under certain conditions. As a specialist when his eyes turn red Kurapika can use all hatsu types letting his chains be invisible, giving himself healing abilities, more control over the chains etc.. That's what emperor's time, his specialist ability, does.
Kaleb I.A. noticed similarities between Stands and Nen? So I'm not crazy, as when I saw Killua's Grandfather's ned ability I immediately thought:"This seems similar to a Stand ability." I also thought the same about Bisky's ability, Pitou, and Netero's abilities too. Especially Netero who I first confused as a stand user when I saw his new ability in a gif a few years back. I then began to wonder if Togashi was inspired by Stands when he developed abilities like those of Bisky, Netero, Pitou, Pouf, and Killua's grandfather... Wouldn't surprise given how heavily inspired by Miyazaki's works he was when creating HunterxHunter.
Can we all agree that stands and nen are the most unique power systems in anime
pretty sure stands are older
And there's chakra and kai
what about a stand user thats also a nen user hmmmmmm
The Quality Crusader blood in deadman wonderland would be the most unique power since, its fcking blood.
Not surprising since HxH was inspired by JoJo. That's why different nen abilities have such crazy rules much like stands. Both are equally impressive and could be insane depending on the user.
Star Platinum sees Gon using Nen.

"You work what you have with your stand". Stand arrow upgrades aside, Koichi breaks this rule and I think it has to do with a special midpoint case when the arrow cannot kill the person but also cannot give a proper stand. Koichi was supposed to die when shot by the arrow because he is not ready yet, but Josuke fixed him which results to forcefully extracting Koichi's underdeveloped stand.
Ambulance-kun How about Johnny?
Levi.JustLevi Johnny's stand is a stand that utilizes and conducts the Spin. While you still can't train and evolve a stand, Tusk evolved as Johnny improved his spin technique. The more powerful Johnny's spin became, the more powerful Tusk became
Levi.JustLevi I believe the devil palm don't kill the person if he is unworthy, only by exposure to the meteorite grants anyone a stand, maybe Johnny was just too immature and not ready for the full extent of his power. It is one of the ones I'd like to call: Forced Stands, they are imperfect but can be developed if overcome.
Holly's was a forced stand, if she was say, healed by Crazy D while she was suffering, she might be able to be like Koichi, another forced stand is a stand disc user (part 6 spoiler) and Emporio is one of the people that overcame the imperfection.
nahhh everybody can develop their stand. rohan did so. he got rid of the "rule" of people having to see his work to be opened up to it and for his ability to unfold.
I feel like the argument comes down to anybody can develop nen to be stronger but the ability for a stand to develop is limited by the direct rules of the stand. Sure nen also has the memory overload thing, but I feel like this can be overcome with practice or rewritten. A stand with F developmental potential will always be E while an A is destined to develop down to E.
"Nen would win if we eliminate all the factors that would make Stands win."

Its not that getting old makes your stand weaker, its not using it over a long period of time, stands develope as the person developes
@Abdi-Malique Ismail Doesn't that just reiterate what the other guy said? When Polnareff became younger, he was at the age when he recently got Silver Chariot and hadn't used it for a long time. Hence, it was weak
Seah Damian the guy I am replying too said that stands do not get weaker when you age, That they only get weaker when you don’t use them often. That is not correct, it’s just your ability to use them that gets worst when you don’t use them for a long time. Jotaro not being able to stop time as long is because he doesn’t do it often.

SnowyTrash stands can't get stronger. You can get better using them, or more experienced.
shotgun6X how about requiems or higher acts?
Pink Spirit requeim are interesting
Pink Spirit acts only happen if your stand has high growth potential while requiem happens if you shoot your self with the stand arrow and survive or shoot your stand with the arrow
Pink Spirit
Stands with acts are simply stands that don't start of at peak strength and must grow into their full strength.
Requiem stands are caused by the Requiem arrow forcefully altering a stand's ability to be the perfect counter to the issues the user is facing at the time. they're not a evolution of your stand, it's trading your stand for a stronger one.

Tony Molins Those are rare exceptions that occur under specific circumstances.

Essentially, those are exceptions to the rule.

I thought about Kira vs. Genthru, but Killer Queen's explosive abilities are way more useful than Genthru's.
Santanas Kicks Remeberance Yeah Genthru's don't even make him immune to his explosions. But his other ability is kinda useful except it takes a long time to explode.
And they won't even know what the bomb is
It's true but Genthru is still a very proeficient Nen user, with his speed and by using Ken/Ren/Ko he could be able to beat Kira with one hit before he could press the button or even touch him
Keres 513 Yeah, except Killer Queen is invisible and could touch him without him realizing.
Keres 513 There's no way Genthru could speed blitz kira, based on power scaling killer queen is almost light speed.
Nen: it’s like “D&D”, you can do anything anything you want. But you will need to know the rules.
Stands: when they are in the 15%, they are broken. The other 85%, you get the short end of the stick.
Switch the the bad and broken ones
"You can't train a stand to get stronger" You kind of can... The duration of time stop increased with used, and atrophied when Jotaro neglected his stand.
I think he meant as in physical strength, because of course timestop was trained, and Polnareff trained Silver Chariot's abilities.
Does sliver chariot ability even count as a stand ability
You fucking kidding? SC counts as a stand ability because it's fast as fuck, it can take off it's armor and be faster than star platinum and it can multiply itself, that definitely counts as a stand it's really dangerous
@@homoman2825 Yeah and the fact that Star platinum is one the fastest stands and SC can out do that.... SC is underrated. Not very underrated (Magicians red and Aerosmith), but people don’t talk about it enough

Actually, even if you can control Nen, you still can't just see it by default. There's a specific Nen technique you need to learn that lets you see it. You can master everything else about it, but if you don't know that technique, ya ain't seeing it.
Also, I'm pretty sure Dio trained The World to extend his time stop length.
Also also, you completely forgot Nen contracts. You potentially COULD counter busted stands with this ability, since it basically involves risking, or just giving up your life, in order to get busted powers. For example, Killua can make himself extremely fast, but with a Nen contract, he could get the power to speed himself up so much that he stops time.
yeah but sacrificing your life vs just having the damn ability to do that shit.
Not saying the stand isn't better, but that's on the rare chance that you have it. There are more people who could sacrifice themselves for a busted ability countering a single, unique stand.
Dio wasn't training to use The World, he was learning how to use it, just like Jotaro in the fight with Dio that only could stop time for an instant, but in the end of this same fight he stops time for 2 seconds. Dio always had the potential to stop time for longer periods, but at first he needed to learn how to use that ability, he needed that the time stops became something natural to him.
Plus he was not at his full potential because he was not totally fused with Jonathan body.
Sorry for my bad english, i can understand it very well, but writing is not my strong point.
So, he was developing his skills with his stand trough experience.
That is literally training.
I think learning is a better word to describe, but training fits too. My point is, he was not training The World, he was training his control over The World, He didn't make The World better in any way, The World always had the ability to stop time for 5 seconds or longer, But Dio could not do that because he didn't know how to use the ability properly.
Honestly I think it depends on the users of both nen and stands, though I kinda hate my own opinion. If you have a fight with precrusaders Jotaro and Gon, much more even a battle; Jotaro (with The World) v Gon, Gon likely loses. Switch Gon out with Netero, and then I'd say that Jotaro probably loses. Since stands and nen are made in such a way that it varies per character skill and strength, its really hard to compare the toward without having to look at the matchups alone.
well unless theres the BUSTED stand like Gold Experience Requiem or the over heaven stands...
TheeOk1 the thing is that nen users are more in the superhuman realm so wouldn't they be just way too fast for him but probably not for starplatinum then again gon could pull a zetsu but then again we need a clear setting for all this man this shit complicated one hit from each could be deadly since hitting a normal human body is crazy nuts and all
I could kill nen user with a stand that enpower them.They fight me,almost kill me but I say “this is........ requiem”

It directs every luck towards Pocoloco. That or the fact that it can look into the future, sort of like epitaph
You CAN train Stands
Polnareff is the best example for this.He only got that fast because he trained chariot
Hmm I thought it means trained in experience
Like having superspeed is good and all but if u can't control it ur basicly useless and will hurt ourself more than ur enemy..... That a bad way of explaining lemme get a example
Take a look at kira
Killer queen have all of these op abilities but he never get experience since all he does is boom his target expect the hands
Like when kira first got bites the dust he get overconfident and reveal his identity thinking he can defeat anyone
So that backfires and he gets crushed by ambulance
Tho this is just my entrepertation of it idk if kira actually able to use his stand to the fullest he would win basicly Welllll that's not counting how fate works in jojo verse tho
1:42 *Polnareff disagree’s with that*
There's one important factor, you can't train stands but they can become stronger as you age around your twenties or thirties. If you already have a pretty strong stand it would become more strong as you went into your peak of age. And I don't know if this works but meditation and other mental training could also power you stand but I don't know for sure since it was really went into in the series.
They only decay with age, use of the stand and its abilities is what makes it stronger like DIO's timestop

I love both honestly. Both are incredibly creative and complex and most of the times characters have to think their ways out instead of overpowering their opponents.
You should do a video on the mundane utility of stands. Like grabbing the remote that's out of reach, moving house made super easy with Enigma, no need for clothing or showers with Yellow Temperance, no need to worry about pockets with Stick Fingers, etc.
They are same in Bizarreness imo. But stands are more interesting because besides the cool names, they look really awesome. Example, comparing The Lock with the inflation Nen, dunno what it is even called, in terms of bizarre and creativeness they are the same but the way JoJo uses theirs is way cooler.
I think netero's ability "100 hand Buddhavista" would be the best stand cuz it would get an "A" for range, power etc..
Basically anything is an A
But my man Made in heaven solos HxH. They can't win if pucchi keeps resetting time. Also do the meruem vs kars that sounds like a good idea
JunKami made in heaven doesnt reset time

Made in Heaven accelerates time at such a huge rate that it ends the universe and creates a new one, King Crimson just skips time and leaves the result behind

Meruem or Netero vs Dio or Giornno or one of the other dudes with a broken ability, Rohan maybe;
Who would win? it all depends on one thing: who ever plays it safer and acts quicker. There's a chance Netero/Meruem could one-tap any of those guys, but if Dio stops time even he could kill Netero but not Meruem, but Rohan could simple make Meruem kill himself (I think). Some of these fights are matchup dependent, but in most it comes down to who can think quicker.
also Meruem vs Ultimate Kars is hype, but tbh I don't think either could kill the other. Actually, if Kars was creative he might be able to, then again by the same logic Meruem could probably find a weakness and possibly one-shot him. Damn that would be an interesting fight

What if the Nen users got shot by the Stand arrow, there is a high chance that they will develop a stand since they have strong life force but i wonder will the stand abilities be compatible with the nen abilities or different, like Killua for example he developed electricity power nen abilities so if he developed a stand will its power be electricity also maybe like Hot Chili Pepper.
It'd be something like say Hermit Purple or Tusk in the fact that they are Stands that augment the user's abilities(Spin for Johnny and Hamon for Joseph). If anything it'd be something that represents their Nen abilities(or main nen ability) and augment it somehow.
Also, inexperienced members would most likely be like Johnny who had to train himself in the art of 'Spin' before Tusk's true power was revealed
I don't know about part 7 yet, since i'm an anime watcher only, but a stand like Hermit Purple won't be useful to someone like Killua, in Joseph case he needed a Stand that can help him conduct Hamon since he can't shoot Hamon from the air, he needs to attach it to something, but for Killua it's another story, he can generate and shoot electricity on his own and even from a long distance so he doesn't need vines or wires to do that, on the other hand, Killua developed an ability called God Speed, it's a great ability but it has its drawbacks like it takes a lot of energy and stamina and doesn't last long and leave Killua weakened and out of Juice, we all saw that when he was fighting Youpi so he needs a Stand that can fill this Gap and punch really hard, i saw Hot Chili Pepper jumping around and hit Crazy Diamond the same way Killua was jumping around and hit Youpi, But Hot Chili Pepper was doing it perfectly without drawbacks that's why this Stand will be helpful to Killua and support him in battle, since from what i know about Jojo that the stand has to be useful to the user and satisfy his needs add to that Killua is an assassin so he needs his stand to be something strong, fast and stealthy and Hot Chili Pepper fits these categories.
the thing about it needing to be usefull to the user isnt true, theres this stand called purple haze. i recommend that you read the manga because it is beautifull. also, part 5 never
that is not true, killua used a yoyo and had to touch people to shock then, he never launched the electricity, but if i would create a stand to killua it would relate to being a killer and wanting to protect a friend, maybe a shadow that follows gon, and protect him and attacks anyone the tries to hurt him "the sound of silence".
Tiagorpg mendes he did. He used it on the rat dude and Youpi. It's an emitter type ability
i think someone like pucci can easily fight every single anime character alone
if he don't die through universe reset, he would be capable to reset every anime universe
Once he resets anime universes, nice knowing you mab
Since I jus finished HxH I been thinking about this. If these were real I'm not sure which I'd rather have. Nen seems to have more options than stands. With Nen u can train and get stronger and come up with new techniques and with Stands it just is what it is and doesn't really get stronger unless requiem stands or ur luck to get an OP stand (gold experience)...but Nen requires A LOT of training n I'm lazy so I guess Stands? Keep up the great work man! I'd love to see more HxH from you
Well considering that both are a reflection of your character and you have to be an exceptional individual for both to become a user, you'd still have to work hard to some degree. Choosing not to die with an arrow through your neck takes a lot of resolve.
Silver Bean true, realistically I have no fighting spirit at all so I'd die if I got hit with the arrow which doesn't seem that bad 2 me tbh? U either get a cool punch ghost or u die pretty straight forward. The requirement to get a stand is to basically have a strongass will/fighting spirit you don't even have to be physically strong. With NEN you have to train your body and mind rigorously...and theres also the fact that if you use too much of it you could die so...yea I'll take Stands its a little LESS rigorous to get one
Choose nen it extends your life and keeps you healthier even at it's base state. That's a great deal for a normal human.
Not only that but u can add more to your abilities with nen just look at Kurapika he has like 7 abilities
I could've swore that stands could develop in a person with Rohan being one of those few people in the series or am i memorizing this wrong?
Polnareff had a stand that he "TRAINED"(his words not mine) to obtain and Avdul,Iggy,Kakyoin and Joseph (He had HP in BT as stated by Araki it was just that he couldn't see it) all had one before they were introduced so yeah it can happen but it's rare mainly cause Araki changed the concept in part 4,5 and 6 to make it so that most stand users were stabbed by the Arrow like how DIO stabbed his lackeys after receiving the Arrow, Morioh was playing hot potato with the Arrow so it spread like Ebola, You basically can't join the gang unless you develop a stand due to the trial, etc.

Stands and Personas should be the next topic
Its the same but stands are the shape of someones willpower and personas are personification of someone i think
Francis Ivo Teodoro stands are the users soul while personas are the users mind
"300mph diamond shattering punches" Yeah, that is an extreme understatement. Through more raw proof he has been estimated to reach speeds faster than lightspeed. As for his reflexes against Josuke which is the only viable argument for a 300 mph average speed. Well, all I can say is Jotaro most likely underestimated Josuke. As well as who knows how long or how much his skill with star platinum became without proper practice. Since reflexes are different from a stand. To conclude no big deal I just found that difficult to ignore. Man, I miss prime Jotaro his thoughts and plans to act alone outperform any speed his opponents had. Even Dio, in the end, got played because Jotaro somehow managed to time stop after Dio before he was crushed at point-blank. Not to mention the fact Dio and the world were beating the hell out of the steam roller. To even consider the world and star platinum having near equal strength.
"Through more raw proof he has been estimated to reach speeds faster than lightspeed"
Where? In a fight against Tower of Gray where he can't hit a literal bug? Or in High Priestess fight where he can't even catch up to her? Or in Angelo fight where, his stand (made of water, things with mass obviously can't go lightspeed) easily avoids his punches?
In MiH arc Jotaro couldn't catch up to Pucci, he should've been faster than him if Star Platinum is "faster than light"?
"Since reflexes are different from a stand"
1. 300 000 km/s vs 300 km/h...
2. Reflexes don't matter here. SP should be able to output hundreds of thousands punches per second if it was above light speed, any enemy should get obliterated the milisecond he gets close to SP
@@cccbbbccc5910 exactly. Anything moving at the speed of light would obliterate anything it touched. Especially a run-of-the-mill steam roller. At the very least it would melt metal and ignite the atmosphere.
Quirks vs Stands?
One word
DIO
[Yoshikage_Kira] even Kira with bites the dust
Lyrunio They're pretty much one in the same if you think about it. Some sort of supernatural ability. If it weren't for Stands being physically manifested, there wouldn't be a difference between the two. When you boil it down, they're both just superpowers.
no.
Even Silver Chariot. Heck a lot of the mid tier stands could give most people a run for their money.
Talking about how good they are for writing/enjoyment purposes, not power. Nen definitely feels like Stands + Chi or whatever. Nen has the upside of a more thought out development to their power, but also has the weakness of very few fights which really feel like anyone could win. One of my fave HxH fights is Killua vs the darts siblings, because it really felt like anyone could win and the way it concluded was a really sick and clever way to solve it considering the abilities, but then I realized it’s strengths were basically any ordinary stand battle. The path towards getting nen abilities is better, but the actual battles of stands are better. Also stands look way cooler, and their powers get much crazier/creative which I’d consider a plus.
Do a video on how fast af okuyasu is
honestky both are these are in my top 3 favorite animes so this video was pretty enjoyable
please do the Meruem and Kars video
I don't think stands generally grow weaker over time, but rather can just change or the user becomes too weak mentally to be able to use the stand to its fullest potential. Part 6 Star Platinum was a good case as while its Defensive state dropped heavily from an A to an E its timestop ability was increased my three seconds, matching its original limit from the final fight of SC
Should've done Stands vs Nen Beasts for those caught up with the Dark Continent arc
Yesssss! More Hunter X Hunter content pls!
Stand training is basically meditation, learning more about yourself and displaying that true self.
I wonder if Stands are a similar phenomenon to Nen; the latter is created from energy emitted from living souls, basically elan-vital energy from the vital sparks of creatures, while Stands are an outward expression of this vital spark that occurs naturally or activated by the otherworldly or the Divine (Stand arrows, the Christ figure in Part 7)

quirk are ok but nen is better and u can do so much with nen
What about todoroki? Or bakugo?
Overhaul flexes is they get close.
Silver Bean Eh, Nen is much more versatile but there are some op quirks like Overhaul, OFA, etc
It's nice watching this after knowing what both stands and nen are.
serious question, who do you can hit faster Star Platinum or Netero. There are two points in time to think about for this, for his prime and another for his age when he fought Meruem since he might have slowed down a bit with age
If we ignore Time Stop, Jotaro's Star Platinum is Faster than Light so.........yeah. As OPed as Netero is, i don't think he's THAT fast
Zayaan Nashrid i was asking because it is thought the Netero in his prime can punch near light speed with how many punches he was able to throw in such a sort amount of time, remember he just doesn't throw punch after punch be puts his hands together like is praying before each and every punch he throws. Even if Netero is slower I'm sure he could still beat Jotaro what what with the bombw planted inside his heart that took down the monster known as Meruem.
Hanako is best girl problem with that is netero can use in on his 100 type buddah, and since jotaro can't use gyo, he would be getting hit by hundreds of invisible strikes
Kevin1242 netero being speed of sound was debunked multiple times, you can even check the Calcs if you want, netero is around Mach 100, even the jotaro is faster...
Hanako is best girl that would be more of a draw
We should also think how smart the stand user is. Like jotaro he knows how to stay calm and assess the situation and think on what the enemy will do.
In battles with Nen and stands I think you should assume stands are Hatsu and stand users are constantly using Gyo.
I gotta say this video made a lot of good points, except for the fact that it only seems to cover stands versus enhancer types. The biggest drawback of stands is that they're solely based on what their user can perceive. Every stand in some way shape or form is direct confrontation but that's hardly the case with all nen. Time manipulation doesn't mean anything to a master of manipulation nen. Or an emitter type. Or conjurer type. Especially since it takes nen to see nen. And every OP stand essentially requires being up close and personal. Overwhelming power means nothing to better tactics.

It would also be fun to compare both power systems in the ways they contribute to their respective narratives. Personally, I view both of them as a great tools for their respective mangakas in establishing rules for power and limitations of their characters.
Also the combat is more creative than other series since it's not based on power alone, but also mind games and strategy.
And finally they limit the absurd power escalation that plagues a lot of other action series.
On the other hand, both Nen and Stands can get really complex with their rules and abilities, needing a ton of exposition to convey the way they work to the reader, bringing the pacing to a halt or needing supplementary information (like the stand charts).
I don't kbow if you have talked about it before but with episode 2 of the dub of Stardust Crusaders airing a couple days ago it reminded me of the abilities Kakoyin?, if that is how you spell his name I'm not sure, showed them being that painting ability ever he cut Jotaro's leg but painting a red line over a the Painting of Jotaro he had namely the leg of it as well as the possession ability. Why do you think he has never demonstrated these abilities since then.
i think is just show off and kakoyin just cut jotaro leg whit hierofant green tentacles
Hanako is best girl It almost seemed like he was ashamed to use it after being possessed by dio for some reason
that actually makes alot of sense. Even still you would think he would try and use to take down the man that had possessed him in the first place.
Out of universe its very very likely Araki completely forgot he even had that ability.
In universe it might really be the ashamed thing.
As for the other comment, Kakoyin hasn't really shown the ability to cut that precisely with hierophant green has he? I mean he can cut with Emerald Splash but it is in a much wider area and Jotaro would have been cut more and surrounding things would have been cut and/or destroyed.
Yes imgur.com/zRPZvuQ
nice, but you can train with your stand (example: Star Platinum was weakened cuz it has not been used for a long time, meaning that you can train them and keep them at a strong state, and make them even stronger.)
dude holy shit i literally thought about this today morning
I would argue Gyo could see stands. Whether nen could harm them is up for grabs but I feel like it would function similar to fighting a transmutor but with powers like a conjurer. Naturally the most insane stands win outright against what hatsu we've seen so far. requim is nuts of course as it's just the power to win.
I'd certainly like to see other stuff like this!
Both HXH and JOJO Fan :D
Same here
👍
YES! A Kaleb I.A video that isn't completely jojo
not completely
Yes but JoJo wins
1:40 Nah sorry this is bullshit. A stand isn't just working with what you have. It can be trained and is practically a users extra ligaments. That's what Polnareff did.
Kevin1242 Provably false. As Polnareff got younger his stand got smaller and weaker. Stands aren't like pokemon or bodyguards. The user has to be a badass for the stand to be powerful (for the most part).
Kevin1242 FFS Stand Power isn't just based on IQ. There is a warrior element to it.
Scott Mental Strength isn't IQ. It's essentially the ability to think. A child isn't thinking as much as an adult. When Polnerref became a kid, his mental strength reverted as well.
Tell me how much Koichi trained btw. His stand literally evolved because his mind developed, albeit through stress and danger, but he didn't spend time training and testing Echoes abilities. He had to have a change in the way he was thinking. If Stands changed through training then Koichi makes no sense
And Johnny Joestar's stand developed with his mastery of the spin. It's a combination of gained attributes that strengthen a stand.
Kevin1242 I said its a variety of factors.
Why is this guy saying that u can't train a stand if basically avdol, polnareff, and Johnny trained their stands... And you can train your stand by making yourself physically and mentally stronger since it's your souls physical manifestation
Nen strikes me as having far more potential than Stands. Most Stands really just have one or two tricks. Sure, there's the development potential stat, but that can't be counted on in most cases to actually be effective. If you don't get a relatively simple Stand, you're locked into the same tactic, giving your opponent time to figure out the exact counter required. With Nen, you create your own abilities and can spend time to rethink and add on to those abilities, making the fights more varied over time. Narratively, Nen is also more interesting. Stands are abilities that a character just sort of gets. There isn't training to get them and it requires little thinking to unlock powerful abilities. The only example of a villain training to make their Stand more powerful that I can think of is DIO. Nen abilities are more personal to the characters. These are powers that the characters themselves thought of and decided to create and learn to use. If an ability evolves, it isn't a Deus Ex Machina that the story needed for a character to succeed (looking at you Koichi), but rather the result of difficult training and a lot of thinking. In short, Stands make the person in Jojo, while the person makes the Nen ability in HxH
Polnareff trained his Stand too
It's kinda strange how you say stands make the person after talking about Koichi. Stands are a manifestation of their user's psyche, the user does make the stand, the user just changes their fighting style to reflect that. On that note, Koichi is the worst example you could use. Out of all the actual stand Deus Ex Machinas (Looking at you Star Platinum: The World) Koichi's was to show development. Koichi's stand developed only after he was put in situations where he himself was forced to develop.
Elias Haworth you comment is a biased
Don't forget, how creatively you use the stand. Like in DIU when joske made tracking bullets against kira, or even the ass-pulls that every jojo does.
stands are miniscule in comparison to the capabilities of nen. nen beasts are far more intercate. The fact that he didn't even mention nen beasts proves this
@@-Datboijj- tw over heaven, made in heaven, heaven's door, d4c, WONDER OF U.. yeah no
my two favorite anime
👍
Do the Ultimate Kars vs Meruem. I think I was the first one to ask for it. Clyde the Weaboo did a good scaling, but I think his video got removed. He should still probably know Meruem's stats. That would be a good combo video. You could also include your hypothetical Kars Stand, call it Deep Purple.
you cannot just make more abilities for your stand, bou you should've mentioned that stands tend to evolve with the user under certain circumstances, Stands can gain some sort of update, a new form, and abilities, sometimes is just learning how to use your powers in a new way, but sometimes you just unlock a new ability, wether or not that was always there or your stand just developed it out of necesity, as long as there is room to grow, a stand can change and improve. Also getting older is not the only thing weakening a stand, but not using it for a long time, if Jotaro kept practicing with Star Platinum using the timestop wouldn't have been such a hazzle later on. Stamina also seems to affect stands to a degree, but it really depends.
If we add the stands that basically level up including the non canon ones then that would change things, cause we got GER TWOH and SCR
Killua vs Red hot chili pepper
Who would win?
Some random power ups
Some random punchie bois
What about Stands Vs Personas
Wasn't the creator of Persona and Araki friends? So they made (kind of) the same concept?
No
stands vs personas is just stands vs stands or personas vs personas, they are the same thing basically
Holy shit! my two favorite animes together in one video?
*There is a God!*
T!Tookz Of course there is. Didn't you see part 7?
Needs more Chrollo!
Interesting Idea, Next up maybe Stands vs Zanpakutos??
What if Hamon is just underdeveloped Nen
Wa- wa- wa-
Hearing "New Mutation" While seeing Jojo Manga Caps is something I could only dream of.
Stands are ur fighting spirit while nen is life energy so therfore they cant see each other
I would like to see a comparison with RWBY's Semblances, as they're similar to both of these powers but have some different features such as a built-in personal shield system and are by far the easiest for someone to discover.
more hxh content please, its interesting
Stands because a Nen user won't be able to see stands unless they could use Reen which is something Kurapika uses, stands can do stuff like stop time, reverse the entire universe, the power of infinity, and the power of zero which can reverse any action. the only problem is that if a Nen user hits a stand then he/she will feel the same pain
Make a video of why ultimate kars vs that other thibg wouldnt work.
Tidal Grunt Ultimate Kars vs Meruem
Kars would learn how to use Nen by seeing it(like he did with Hamon), master it and wreck Meruem's ass........i think.
But Nen can't be seen by non Nen users.
meruem wouldnt even want to fight Kars, and Kars appreciates nature too much to kill Meruem
Gshiin Kars doesn't really appreciate nature, he only spared those plants and animals because he sees himself as superior, but he can't be superior to something which he doesn't belong to, such as the aforementoined animals and plants. The first thing het did when he became the Ultimate Lifeform was kill a squirell and turn his hand into a plant, wanting to show that he is now superior to them.
A few of your points would be changed around if we were to consider Stands and Nen to be "made out of" the same stuff, e.g. using Gyo, a Nen user would be able to see an enemy's Stand, while a Stand user would be able to see an enemy's Nen abilities. Nen abilities would most likely be able to interact with Stands as if they themselves were Stands, e.g. Hisoka's Bungee Gum, Gon's Jajanken, would be able to affect Stands, and vice-versa.
Though I haven't seen any of JJBA, so perhaps it'd be different from what I'm imagining, I've only seen HxH.
I'm a big fan of jojo and hxh but I'm pretty sure normal people can't see nen so if netero fought jotaro or someone else he might win cause that 100 hands are pretty fast and they might not be able to see it
TheClassicWeeb - it's not very clear. Only some nen is invisible. You can't see bungee gum without Gyo for example but you can see Kurapika's chains when he isn't in emperor's time. So I guess it depends on whether it is entirely made of nen or is nen converted into a physical substance or if it is a physical substance conducting nen.
But Kurapika is a Conjurer right? Isn't their whole shtick to conjure items that thye would use like normal?
Matthew Coyle oh well I finished hxh a year ago so I can forget things especially about nen thanks for clearing that up for me
TheClassicWeeb - Yeah it's got a lot of variations. I'm watching it on Toonami so I've seen the classification stuff recently and done a lot of reading on it.
Zayaan Nashrid Kurapika is a conjuror but he's also a 1% specialist (a rare ability some conjerors and maybe manipulators can have) that means he gets one specialist power under certain conditions. As a specialist when his eyes turn red Kurapika can use all hatsu types letting his chains be invisible, giving himself healing abilities, more control over the chains etc.. That's what emperor's time, his specialist ability, does.
Kaleb I.A. noticed similarities between Stands and Nen? So I'm not crazy, as when I saw Killua's Grandfather's ned ability I immediately thought:"This seems similar to a Stand ability." I also thought the same about Bisky's ability, Pitou, and Netero's abilities too. Especially Netero who I first confused as a stand user when I saw his new ability in a gif a few years back.
I then began to wonder if Togashi was inspired by Stands when he developed abilities like those of Bisky, Netero, Pitou, Pouf, and Killua's grandfather... Wouldn't surprise given how heavily inspired by Miyazaki's works he was when creating HunterxHunter.
Petshop and Avdol vs Todoroki
Todoroki lose cuz he's bad at using his attacks
Petshop can destroy a human into pieces casually at basically light speed.
Petshop and Avdol no diffs this easily ._.
ghiaccio solos class 1-A i think
Anything is fine bro, peace out and god speed
Is there a hamon vs nen Video? Because i would like to see it.
It's a stomp towards Nen but Hamon and Nen combined would be dope
@@Sun-cg6lv hamon is better than nen
@@EatDatButt445 hamon is most DEFINITLY not better than nen what
I always considered Hamon and Nen basics similar, while Stands are basically Guardian Nen Beasts.
