JOJO: Bizarre Adventure

Seven-year-old Bobo, with his "silver chariot," doesn't have to struggle for hatred, and his family can stay by his side.

22-year-old Popovich, with his "silver chariot," has no family by his side, but his comrades will accompany him to etch glory.

25-year-old Popovich, with his "silver chariot," has seen his comrades go their separate ways, but he still possesses an excellent mind and physique.

At 36, Popovich, with his "silver tank," is riddled with wounds, yet he will not back down in the face of formidable opponents.

After that, Bobo bid farewell to his "silver chariot." The hero's soul was confined to a narrow cage, but that didn't matter. His spirit illuminated the road ahead. Oh, Frenchman who is proud of his name, fate will sing a triumphant song for him.

In this installment of our "People's Musings" series, we'll discuss:

Jean-Pierre Polnareff is the most talented Stand warrior in the JOJO world, an invincible true man in the hearts of JOJO fans, the true protagonist of BOBO's ill-fated adventure, the toilet warrior, the proud Western fencer, and one of my favorite characters in the entire series!

(Hereinafter referred to as Bobo.)

Regarding Popo, let's first talk about his abilities.

This "strength" is a concept that distinguishes between the stand and the original body. Let's talk about the original body first.

In my personal ranking of Stand users' strength, Polnareff is roughly between the upper T2 and the lower T1.

You ask why it's so low?

The reason is simple: he is a person.

Yes, it's that simple.

Human beings have limitations, and it is these limitations that restrict their development and progress.

Those who can reach the top tier are at least at the peak of human ability; Popo is one of them.

Above him are Jotaro Kujo, Dio, the peak Joseph Joestar, Rohan Kishibe, and Geralt.

Back to the topic.

Since his strength has reached the pinnacle of human capabilities, his combat prowess is beyond doubt.

His "Silver Chariot" is a Stand that relies heavily on his own combat abilities.

This is why I call him "the most talented Stand user" and "the undefeated true man in the hearts of JOJO fans".

In fact, many JoJo fans believe that Polnareff's fighting power ceiling is very high.

In the three parts, apart from cunning and unconventional opponents like Enya and Darby, even powerful figures like Anubis and Vanilla Ace ultimately fell to him.

Many even believe that if he had enough intelligence, he could have killed the boss directly and ended the fifth installment ahead of schedule.

Some even believe that such inferences are too conservative; with sufficient intelligence and preparation, he could kill Dick.

Let's discuss the feasibility of these two arguments.

First, let's talk about that radical claim, that he can kill DIO.

Can he?

It's possible, but not very likely.

Here we will discuss two plans that they did not adopt.

Everyone knows, and they all know, that DIO is a vampire.

They also know that fire, ultraviolet rays, and ripples can all subdue vampires.

That makes things simple. Just prepare some ultraviolet weapons, go to DIO's mansion in broad daylight, set it on fire, or throw a few bombs, and then wait for Dio to come out so you can shine the ultraviolet light on him.

This method has a success rate of over 50%.

Even Bobo can execute it.

Another method is to have all the Crusaders learn Ripple.

I still can't understand why the two Josephs didn't just teach them Ripple directly.

For example, when Bobo pierced Dio's head with his rapier, if he had added a little ripple, he could have melted Dio's head away and won.

For example, Jotaro's Ripple Ora Punch and Kakyoin's Ripple Emerald Splash.

It can be described as dealing 999 damage with a single strike, with every strike landing a critical hit.

We've gone a bit off-topic, let's get back to the point.

Therefore, with sufficient preparation or having learned Ripple, Popo could try to defeat Dio.

This is mainly because Dior was both too cautious and too extravagant.

Let's talk about the inference that is accepted by most people.

This refers to the theory that Popovich can solo kill the boss.

In fact, this argument is divided into two parts: the "intelligence wave theory" and the "manual silver town theory".

Let's start with the intelligence theory.

Given that both sides have equal intelligence and Popovich knows the boss's abilities, can he defeat the boss?

To sum it up, there's a high probability we won't win.

Don't rush, let's analyze it.

First, let's talk about strength. Boss has both strength and speed at A, while Bobo has strength at C and speed at A.

On the surface, it may seem that the boss has the upper hand, but that's not actually the case.

Since "Silver Chariot" is much faster than "King Crimson" and comes with a rapier as its weapon, the actual difference in the damage inflicted by the two Stands is not significant.

However, the boss's signature "chest-piercing punch" makes the two attacks similar in lethality, so in this respect they are evenly matched.

Regarding range, the tank's range is longer than the Red King's, but with the Time Deletion ability, this range issue can be easily compensated for.

Even if Bobo has found a way to detect the deletion, it won't be much easier to fight. Even in the armor-breaking state, it's difficult to keep up with the deletion's movements.

In this world, you can't defeat your opponent just by deciphering the truth. Otherwise, why would the Naples team have to lose half their members to win?

Not only did half the people die, but they also cheated.

Finally, let's talk about his own combat ability. We must admit that Popo has a strong fighting talent and his combat skills are very powerful.

But I want to ask, why does everyone think that a gangster boss who rules an entire developed country is weak in combat?

The boss is just cautious, not stupid. How could someone who can ascend the throne be incompetent?

Next, let's talk about the manual operation of the silver coin.

In conclusion, it's still highly likely that they won't win.

The simplest point is that he has already awakened the Requiem, knows the Requiem's ​​power, and also knows the Boss's power.

If he could really win, he would have done it already; why wait so long?

Furthermore, the feasibility of manually controlling the silver coin was already unknown.

Leaving aside the question of whether Requiem's ​​self-awareness might be controlled by the original entity.

The key point is that Silver Town's abilities are all passive.

The ability to reflect other people's Stand abilities shouldn't be something you can intentionally release.

So, we can't beat them, we really can't beat them.

Unrealistic.

Finally, let's talk about him as a person.

He is an optimistic person, and a very easygoing person.

But he's not a fool.

In swordsmanship, in combat, in strategy, in every aspect.

He was an unparalleled genius in swordsmanship and combat.

He can quickly discern the abilities of various opponents and counter them.

He is an adventurer in SPW who can stand on his own.

He can take on the entire Passion organization single-handedly.

He could remain hidden in enemy territory for years without being detected.

He can help Giorno transform the entire country of Italy.

He was able to assume the important role of strategist for the [Passion] organization after Giorno took over.

He appears to be a cheerful and easygoing person, but is actually quite shrewd and resourceful.

He was both intelligent and brave, and skilled in both literature and martial arts.

He was a Frenchman, and the French are proud of their names.

He is Jean-Pierre Polunarev.
