The Most Terrifying Stands: Soft & Wet 

Dude, Araki just makes the most op stands for his protagonists and somehow he makes the villain's even more op

4 characters combined one for each ball

Soft and wet has always been scary, the idea of being able to steal anything from anything or anyone just scares me. And that’s not even mentioning it’s bubbles acting like a god damn void that just deletes everything that come in contact with it. it’s one of the reasons on why it’s one of my personal favourite stands aswell.

Soft and wet can be terrifying of course, but with a shovel? A god of destruction.

Don't touch the bubble or you will be in for double the trouble when you lose your friction and go sliding into some rubble. Edit:this comment might've been a mistake.

Soft & Wet also has gotten an upgrade. Apparently the bubbles aren't bubbles...they're strands of thread moving so fast they're not even really there. Yes, it has the power of the Spin. He actually beats Wonder of U using a special bubble from his birthmark directed by the Paisley park stand...fired through the INTERNET.

Ironically the other josuke is arguably worse. One touch from cd and he can just turn you inside out, only the revive you and do it all again

2:30 Johnny couldnt stand up for the family photo, so he´s just in the corner lol

Imagine he steals your buoyancy and the grounds friction, just slides you into the ocean

Imagine if his enemy had a stand named: hard and dry👁👄👁

Josuke and Soft and wet get scarier every chapter

So you're telling me Josefumi could have grabbed any body parts to reform himself but went straight for Kira's balls? 😂

Can't imagine Josuke with Johnny's Infinite spin

Please make "The Most Terrifying Stands: Green, Green Grass Of Home"

One may say that Yoshikage Kira died of a *sheer heart attack* ?

Counterpoint: Josefumi's fourth character reference is to Joseph, not Okuyasu. The most obvious connection is their names; Joseph spoken in Japanese sounds like Josefu. Then you just add a 'mi' at the end and you have the new name. He's also (technically) the second protagonist in this universe, thus matching the two up in their order of appearances in the two chronologies. More that that, now that we know more about how Go Beyond works, that it's a spin ability that almost reaches the heights of Johnny's, this means that just like Joseph in Part 2, Josefumi is carrying on the technique of the previous protagonist and evolving it.

I’m so dissapointed that Araki hasn’t been more creative with the plunder ability. Unlike crazy diamond where Josuke left me satisfied, I feel like this stand has been underutilized.

The limits of the "Plunder" ability have no bounds so far. So technically, it is possible to steal someone's "life", making them an instant corpse.

Love Jojolion and Soft and Wet. Easily my favorite part and stand. Will have some fun watching this video METAs

!!!! the song choice is ABSOLUTELY thematically relevant. Rock humans are an anomaly walking in human skin. They seem timeless, inorganic, and indifferent to creating meaningful relationships with others. I don't want to sound like I have a PhD here, but rocks are hard, and often times dry. Then we have our man Gappy! Freshly born, wet and mushy, more human than anyone else (because of the four balls). Soft and wet is *at least* a thematic choice to how ultra human Gappy is in contrast to the rock people.

Other stands on the list: terrifying abilities Soft and wet: do not touch the goddamn bubble

The last chapters show a contrast between the name “Soft and Wet” and the “Hard and Dry” rock humans and animals.

Does soft and wet still have the plunder ability? I cant remember the last time he used it. It seems like his main ability is mainly trapping things in his bubbles now, aside from the recent spin developments.

Soft and Wet’s ability to make bubbles is also a reference to Stray Cat, making Josuke 5 characters in one

I hope the Part 9 mc gets another long range stand like Tusk or maybe even a wearable stand would actually really cool like White Album or Oasis. If it was a suit that would be pretty interesting if it was sentient and could speak to the mc or communicate with them somehow while they're wearing them and can fight within it

Give 「Bohemian Rhapsody」to someone with higher than 25iq and i would call him the scariest man in the universe.

In the English dub, rename him to "Moist & Creamy" lol

I love how the most terrifying stand gets infinitely more powerful in later chapters with the capability to damage wonder of u

Most importantly, it can use the SPIIIIIIN. If he does manage to defeat Wonder of U he'll probably be up there with being one of the most powerful JoJo's in the series

Honestly though Soft and Wet is my favorite stand and the fact that his ability is pretty much a complete opposite of Crazy Diamond is just a really nice parallel that I thought was neat when I realized it

I feel like p4 josuke’s stand ability is connected to the plunder ability in the sense that it separates parts of an object I guess

Well, I mean....it’s pretty obvious that the NEW rokakaka doesn’t just fuse Josefumi and Kira bodies, it creates a completely new person, thus a new soul that is its own thing.

The MF DOOM in the beginning made me just gain a lot of respect for you. You have earned a sub. Rip MF DOOM🕊

The use of the song Soft & Wet is a parallel to Gold Experience, in that if Gold Experience is the experience of having money, then Soft & Wet is the experience of having coochie. Then if you compare Gappy and Giorno you'll find that both are a fusion of two pre-existing characters and both are looking for a balanced new identity as a new being (it's insanely subtle with Giorno). Also it's extremely fitting for both Giorno and Gappy to have Prince songs since both are in a way future kings; Giorno dethrones the crimson king and Gappy is about to evolve his stand into one that will belong with the rest of the Higashikatas, as such the naming scheme calls for a name featuring the word 'King'. I T ' S A L L C O N N E C T E D. Not to mention Gappy's overlap with the Elvis Presley song, "King Creole" which basically confirms it all. Josuke is actually the closest thing in existence to Jotaro and has even been spotted doing the Jotaro pose on a few occasions. He's literally the son of both Holy and Sadafumi Kujo (the alternative to Sadao, Jotaro's father). AALLLSoo Gappy using the spin is a thematic thing since the Spin technique comes all the way back from Jonny; Gappy using the Spin without ever learning it separately is a testament to how he has sorted his identity out and how all the bits and pieces of it are falling into place, including his family's legacy, which is what the Spin has always represented. This is especially reinforced by the imagery of the special bubble coming out of his birth mark. And yeah also just keep in mind that the bubbles have actually always used the Spin.

Ive always thought that soft and wet looks dumb but after reading part 8 it quickly become one of my favourite stands

I always liked that his explosive bubbles is an homage to the original Killer Queen and Stray Cat combo.

*Random METAs noises*

what are your thoughts on kraftwerk? imo it is actually an incredibly powerful stand that loses to nearly nothing, only held back by its user again

Jousuke is an individual person distinct from Josefumi and Kira. Stands are a reflection of your soul, so even though he did not know who he was his stand still manifested with both abilities.

“I stole your skin” causing you immense pain wherever your body is touching something

9:30 it's kinda scary thought but what if rokakaka healed kira he woke up underground and then he got cardiac arrest from shock?

Wonder if there'll be any novels about Part 8 after it ends. Maybe about Joshu? Eh. Good video!

The reason Josefumi and Kira "fully" fused was a combination between the new rokakaka fruit and the soil by the higashikata's estate which can fuse things as shown with the lemon and orange in chapter 17.

1:36 I never knew jotaros,Johnny,and gyro hats were in the store.

Because the fusion happened with both the Rokakaka and the special ground of the Higashikata estate (possibly because of the corpse), I’d say that the physical fusion was due to the fruit, but the spiritual fusion was from the ground

Great video! I’ve been showing your vids to coworkers so they can understand a lot of the characters in the shows and the manga’s! Thank you for all of these videos.

What if josuke uses “plunder” on himself ,then removes his ability to lose?

"don't touch the goddamn bubble" _5 year olds:_

The rokakaka didn't affect the stands, it was the wall eyes that made them fuse. Remember the demosntration kyo gave with the two fruits.

I think that it was not just the locacaca fruit's power but also the wall eyes where Kira and Josefumi were buried. The locacaca exchanged the damaged body parts while the wall eyes mixed them up even further. This can be seen in Josuke's eyes and is why he also has an extra set of balls. It is probably also why their stand powers mixed

I like the use of Ragchomps fan made soundtrack.

If the logic of The Hand is correct, this might mean that Josuke's Soft & Wet can even be able to stop time at some point. And the more awesome part is, Josuke's Soft & Wet might be able to use Star Figer the most OP power of all time. Don't take this seriously, I am obviously just joking. Or am I..... Araki?

"Josuke is actually four characters put into one" Well that explain how he has a lot of balls

Rokakaka being able to steal/transfer Stands reminds me of the Stand Discs from Part 6.

it is explained that the actual fusion between josefumi and yoshikage is product of them being buried in the wall eyes, the fruit only healed yoshikage with equivalent exchange from josefumi

Hell Yeah, More METAs content.

i like that josuke4 fixes things, josuke8 breaking it

Soft and wet is even more scary now, the bubbles go beyond our reality

Just stumbled across your videos today and you have earned a new subscriber! Nice work good sir.

Now it's even more scary as s&w go beyond is a thing

"Josuk8 has the most overpowered stand by far" Golden Experience would like to have a word with you

But for some reason Gappy gives me Giorno vibes Going against a organization with violent brutal intentions and both having stands name after prince

I like how he said never cross the rock humans, they will fuck your shit up

Soft and wet is just terrifying it's like killer queen but buffed like with a new ability and like able to make a person explode from a distance instead of needing to touch them

Okuyasu with a brain:Hold my beer

1:30 you can see Gyro, Johnny and Kira's hat in the background

Been watching your vids for a min and just realized I wasn’t subscribed, love your in depth detailed dives into jojo stands. I draw a lot and your explanation kinda give me inspiration to draw

I really want you to cover the hand with this series. Like, he's only under recognized because okuyasu was a little slow, but it's while concept really fucking terrifies me.

kinda sad that josuke 8 didn't get a killer queen type ability, know he's a spin user and he can so some bullshit now but explosion are badass as fuck

Actually... Wonder of U made the bubbles to erase things, Wonder of U's calamity can have the ability to retcon a users soul? As shown in 103, Jousuke got affected by his own bubbles showing that Wonder of U can retcon abilities. With it's high probability manipulation i think its possible that Wonder of U can do that.

Even though theres more disturbing stand names Soft and wet disturbs me

9:25 no lol, it's made clear that the new Rokakaka only have the ability of "different body transplant", and it's made clear that the merge of soul is caused by the holy ground they were burried at which is caused by both Saint corpse and Act 4's power which can effects souls

this vid only has 240 views this is so good so i think it sould have so much more views

Josuke can put bubbles in his own body and it doesnt affect him, like tusk can punch himself with an inf rotation so he can invade any world, example timestop, d4c (maybe timeskip and bites the dust)

it's scary since the plunder ability could take away a person's gravity or ability to stand. it could possibly take ability to move and bombard them with bubbles of bombs.

Bro these thumbnails are fire 🔥🔥

his second ability should be called STRAY CATTO

Josuke(8) being made up of four people makes sense. He has four balls. One for each character

His abilities are legit Killer Queen mixed with Crazy Diamond. The reason why I'm saying this is because CD can heal/fix/restore things for whatever it touches, but here S&W destroys or takes things, while KQ on the other hand can detonate bombs like SHA or by touching someone/something and detonate it by pressing down his thumb but S&W can throw bubble moms at people and store stuff in them, or touch the person and place bubbles on them to explode the person. It's such cool writing and I just learnt this while writing this comment, so that's good writing and convenient names for the characters.

Great video like always, But apart from that have you ever noticed how similar Ticket to Ride is to Wonder of U

The bad thing is that he’s got even more terrifying with his Go Beyond ability

Also soft and wet was explained that soft and wett doesnt have bubbles but its hair that spins abnormally fast to make it look like a bubble

"it steals something from the target" Me about to remove my enemy's ability to exist: I like this one

If he wanted to heal something, he could make a bubble contact an object and say “I took the damage Away.” Boom! Crazy Diamond mixed with Stray Cat!

Go Beyond is more terrifying than anything The Hand could ever do No disrespect to The Hand but Go Beyond is just busted

He is 4 characters 1 for each testicle

Soft and wet go beyond is stated to surpass calamities and all understanding and reasoning with its go beyong ability. And he can steal anything from someone or something. Wild

This is probably a bit of a stretch, but the name Soft and Wet makes me think of laundry detergent, and something soapy like that would make bubbles. Ok honestly writing it out makes it sound like even more of a stretch but that's just what I first thought of when I heard the name lol. Haven't listened to the song yet though.

This channel is criminaly underrated

Golden Experience Requiem is the most terrifying. To be going through death for eternity is just sick.

the new bubble ability is also similar to that one dude from stardust crusaders whom dio turns vampire, the stand that ate itself into a black hole tht destroys anything it makes contact with

I just love how plunder Is really only limited by the users brain. Like you could use it too steal someone's stand or even could steal concepts like steal someone's life from you

Josuke Can literally go to giorno and tell him "I'm taking the requiem of your stand"

Soap bubbles x Spin x C.r.e.a.m Fucking ggs.

S&W and Gold Experience are the quintessential „Oh shit I need to nerf that… Nevermind make it op again but in a more boring way“ stands

I think Soft and Wet can be a viable counter to Ultimate Kars as long as Gappy can steal something like conductivity from Kars' brain.

both josuke's have to most terrifying stands out of all the joestars. Josuke could turn you into a book, or a rock or anything and you couldn't do a single thing about it. You'd be practically a statue. Josuk8 can steal anything thing from you. all your sense so you wouldn't even know where you were and is the perfect torture device.

Imagine if Josuke can just plunder consciousness, stand powers, or literal stands themselves from the stand users body.

The meta knight in the end makes me very happy

The intro's trippy af lmao. Nicely done.
