JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: 10 Strongest Stands In The Series

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure is an epic shonen/seinen series written by Hirohiko Araki. The series is divided into several parts, and each part focuses on a different protagonist and antagonist. Currently, Araki is writing part 7 or JoJolion. Though the manga isn't finished, plenty of fans still love the series for what it currently offers.

Like many popular anime, JoJo's Bizarre Adventure has its own power system. For the first two parts, Hamon was the preferred power, but Araki later changed it to what are known as Stands. Each Stand is unique, and has a distinct ability that separates them from the others. However, not all are created equal — some Stands are more powerful than others.

10 Metallica

Risotto Nero's Metallica is different from most of the Stands in the series, as it operates in colonies. The Stand has the power to manipulate iron using magnetism.

Risotto uses his stand to manipulate iron inside the target's body, creating sharp objects. Using up the iron inside the target's body causes the hemoglobin levels to plummet, resulting in a slow and agonizing death. Metallica can also turn its user invisible by sticking iron particles on their body, which causes the body to reflect light. Its versatility in various situations makes this Stand powerful.

9 Killer Queen

Killer Queen belongs to Yoshikage Kira, the main antagonist of the arc Diamond is Unbreakable. The Stand isn't the strongest in terms of physical power, but it overcomes this shortcoming with its unique ability to create bombs by touching the surface of an object or a person.

Killer Queen has two types of bombs: Sheer Heart Attack, a long-range bomb; and Bites The Dust, which Kira can plant inside the body of another individual. The latter stays inside the body of, and explodes when Kira's identity is revealed. The explosion creates a time loop, rewinding time by half an hour.

8 Notorious B.I.G

Notorious B.I.G is an autonomous Stand that can function even after its user's death. The Stand activates once the user expires, and then it feeds off energy to grow in size. It can also absorb Stand energy, which makes it immune to Stand attacks.

The Stand can be impaled and diced into smaller pieces, but due to its power of regeneration, it cannot die. Notorious B.I.G is not unbeatable, and it can be bypassed since it doesn't have a user.

7 The World

The World is the Stand belonging DIO, who has some of the most iconic poses in the anime, making him easy to identify. The Stand boasts of a very high offensive power, which gives it the edge in a 1v1.

The World is among the few stands that have the ability to stop time. DIO was able to stop time for a maximum of nine seconds in Stardust Crusaders, and he admitted that this duration would continue to increase over time. The ability to control time is immensely powerful in any universe, making this Stand hard to contend with.

6 Star Platinum

The best-known Stand in the series, Star Platinum belongs to Jotaro Kujo, one of the main characters in the show. Star Platinum outshines most other Stands in the series in terms of speed and power.

The Stand has incredible precision and eyesight, which allows it to carry out attacks that are nigh impossible for others. In addition to its incredible physical prowess, Star Platinum can also stop time for five seconds — always an incredible feat.

5 King Crimson

King Crimson is the Stand of Diavolo, Passione's former boss. The Stand has two overwhelming abilities that can end a fight in a matter of seconds. The first is Epitaph, which allows the user to predict the future, giving them an incredible advantage.

The second is its ability to erase time. With this power, Diavolo can dodge any kind of attack and immediately put himself in a position of advantage. Then, with the physical strength of the Stand, Diavolo can easily kill his opponent with one well-placed attack.

4 Weather Report

Weather Report is the Stand of Enrico Pucci's brother, Domenico Pucci. It is one of the most versatile Stands, as it provides its user an array of options both while attacking and defending. Weather Report has the ability to manipulate weather, which can prove to be a real handful in battle.

Furthermore, the Stand has another ability known as Heavy Weather. This activated when Weather regained his memories from Enrico Pucci. Heavy Weather uses the natural subliminal effect to turn people into snails. The only way to counter this wild ability is to kill Weather Report.

3 Made In Heaven

Enrico Pucci had to toil a lot in order to evolve his Whitesnake into the "ultimate" Stand, Made in Heaven. Now, this Stand has the power to control gravity, which allows it to move at astounding speeds.

Made in Heaven can speed up time, which also speeds up non-biological phenomena. This can prove fatal for people living in dangerous environments. Made in Heaven can also counter Star Platinum's time stop ability, thus effectively nullifying the latter's power.

2 Tusk Act IV

Tusk Act IV is the result of Johnny Joestar growing in power over time. It is one of the few Stands that have different acts/forms. Tusk Act IV is the strongest form of the Stand, and utilizes the Golden Spin for its attacks.

The Stand arguably has the highest offensive power, as each attack has limitless energy. In one episode, a single attack from Act IV trapped Funny Valentine, preventing him from escaping. The spin can bypass any dimensional barrier, and can bypass the time-stop ability as well.

1 Gold Experience Requiem

Gold Experience Requiem belongs to Giorno Giovanna. Giorno managed to awaken its true power after piercing his Gold Experience with the Stand Arrow, resulting in a massive boost to the Stand's power.

Gold Experience Requiem has all the abilities of Gold Experience, as well as the added capacity to revert any action that can possibly harm Giorno. This was demonstrated in the fight against Diavolo, where Diavolo tried to attack Giorno, but all of his actions were reverted to zero.
