>Stands are invisible to people without them

Did Araki just give up around this part

he’s special

>>287459202
Some stands are visible to regular people, this is something that's existed since part 3.
>>
Yes old news, all the rules about stands end up having 'except for when they don't' as a suffix
>>
>>287459202
Araki has never once been consistent about stands, he’s retconning and changing his mind every chapter. He’s never even followed the basic "you can only have one stand power" rule
>>
>>287459202
Anon you do realize the modus operandi of the rockmen was to overtake and steal the lives of actual humans
>>
Those are just the general rule for Stands, there are exceptions to just about all rules there are. The Wonder of U is one of those, it's an automatic stand that can be seen by ordinary people.
>>
>>287459202
same reason why he got rid of hamon: He creates a power system with rules, like one is suppose to, but then feels constrained by it. Instead of using his creativity(which he does have) to make the limitations interesting(which he can do), instead he just comes up with new powers.
And unfortunately readers suck it up, because the average shonen reader has single digits IQ

Name one character with multiple stands that wasn't a case of a transferable stand like anubis/cheap trick

Wow congratulations you've discovered that all the "rules" for any given manga don't actually exist and can be broken at any time at the writer's whim.

Even the name isn't a consistent

Yeah like that ship that was invisible to the non-stand using girl in part 3.

If that is supposed to be your IQ, I think you are overestimating yourself.

>Stands are invisible to people without them
Was that ever actually confirmed after the reboot? So many other things about them work different from SBR onwards so why not that
>>
>>287459202
The bigger lore issue is that a stand that causes everyone who wishes to see him to die is working as a doctor, and somehow hasn't been fired for medical malpractice.
>>
>>287459202
Wonder of U is like Whitesnake, but cranked up to 11, breaking every established rule and doing whatever the plot requires. Araki went off the rails after realizing how much of a mess the plot had become.

It's fiction. You're not "supposed to" do anything.
>>
>>287461832
>everyone who wishes to see him to die
Not what it does. You have to be pursuing him with an intent to harm somehow. Most people aren't attacking their doctor or suspecting him of being a psychic ghost controlled by a man made of stone.

Why do people get mindbroken by a Stand having two abilities?

Originated in Scotland actually so yes.
Japan has their own awesome version of it called karage.
Josuke is shitting on karage.
He's the shittiest jojo for that reason alone.

It's a 'mistranslation'. In 'Learn a Lot of English with JoJo's Bizarre Adventure!' the 'line' was 'translated' to 'Josuke' saying there 'wasn't' any 'Fried Chicken', instead of saying that he disliked 'Fried Chicken'.
Apparently the whole 'Riggers having no attachments to others' thing was also a translation fuck up, but I can't remember where I heard that. JoJolion was a mess but I wouldn't be surprised if a few of it's supposed fuck ups storywise were because of shitty translations.

We see visible stands for non-stand users all the time (Anubis, Strength, Love Deluxe, Super Fly), and before you say those don't count because they're bound stands, Whitesnake was a more traditional "ghostly" stand and was also visible to non-stand users; from the very start when stands were introduced, exceptions to the basic rules were also introduced. Read the manga.
