Kira saying Duwang wrote: GER could definitely beat Made in Heaven, but we saw GER failing to do anything against the World over Heaven in "Eyes of Heaven". So it probably depends the Heaven stands ability Could be that TWOH made itself immune to GER specifically, or it had some innate immunity to it, or something else weird happened. While I haven't seen the cut-scene myself yet, IIRC, Tusk Act 4 attacked at the same time, so it's remotely possible that what GER ended up doing was nullifying Tusk's attack. Or some other effect on TWOH. Kinda hard to tell, and of questionable canonicity to boot, so probably not worth considering.

While GER could beat Made in Heaven in a straight up fight, it doesn't seem to have been able to negate the whole "accelerate the universe until there's a new one" thing. Or it just didn't, because reasons. Or it did, but it just made Giorno not have to follow his predestined route. Or shoved him into a pocket dimension, or made a portal and took him through it, or stuck him in a loop, or some other explanation. It's been left unclear, and I'd love to see a short-story or WoG on the subject. Who knows, maybe he'll show up in Part 9 or something.
