Pretty much the entire JOJO series is a never ending stream of ass pull. A lot of you seem to take issue with petty stuff while ignoring the actual important stuff. I've read all parts years ago so I don't fully remember everything but I'll mention what I can recall.

Let's start with part 4, Jotaro's time-stop being shorter in duration because if I recall correctly "he haden't used it since his fight with Dio and he was basically rusty". This sounds like total bullshit. First off, Araki stated that stand users will be drawn to eachother (almost as if its destiny) and often times that turns into them fighting. Jotaro killed Dio who had tons of underlings who devoted their lives to him and some who were still alive. You mean to tell me that we wouldn't expect Jotaro to have to fight any of them again or new enemys duing the time between part 3-4 and that he would't use his greatest ability again during those fights? Even if it was just to practice? This sounds totally unrealistic to the point that is bullshit and Araki couldn't think of a better way to write the story with Jotaro have the time stop.

Kira. There were so many times where Kira evaded being killed and it was extremely unrealistic most of the time.

Part 5. Most of the fights were ass pull. Lets start with Fugo's fight with Illusio. Giorno infected him with PH which is supposed to kill organism within 30 seconds but yet both of them manged to survive for what clearly seems to be longer than 30 seconds. I get that he wouldn't want to kill Girono off like that but if you re-read it there is a considerable amount of dialouge and action between the time when griono first gets infected and when he heals himself. The virus only infects his hand and doesn't spread like it logically should.

Mista getting shot in the head by Prosciutto. Now I know sex pistos stopped the bullets from fully penetrating but they still punctured his head and caused a lot of blood loss. Mista was ingured long enough to likely die from all the blood loss. Yet he magically survives.

Mista surviving all the damage (gun shots, blood loss) from the fight with Ghiaccio is another ass pull,even though I like mista he should not have survived that.

Risoto vs Doppio. This is probably the biggest ass-pull in part 5 for me. During their fight, risoto forces Doppio to rip open his throat, he cuts his face in multiple places and ways and causes him to logically lose a lot of blood. After their fight he eats a frog to restore all the blood loss? This this such ridiclous ass pull. First off frogs have different blood cells from humans so their blood wouldn't help us, secondly a single frog doesn't have anywhere near enough blood to replinish the blood of someone who just pulled scissors out of thier throat and endured the damage Doppio did. Thirdly, even the the frog did have enough blood to replnish him, what about the open wounds Risoto caused? Diavolo doesn't have a healing ablility, how did he heal his riped open throat or other wounds? Just more bullshit from Araki.

Part 6. This is probably the most dissipointing part to me due to all the ass pull. Jotaro not using his time stop against Pucci to stop him from taking his stand was bullshit.

Pucci's first fight with Weather when he evades all of his attacts was unrealistic ass pull and so was his last fight. Weather should have killed him on both ocassions but Araki choose to pull bad writing out of his ass as usual.

There's a lot more but I'll end it here. I'm still a fan of JOJO but Araki isn't consistant and just does what he wants whenever he wants without any real logcical consistancy. And this often weakens the story and characters  and leads to dissipointing fights.
