Notably, based on the abilities shown, that's something that I don't know any protagonist's stand could have done except maybe Jotaro. We know that even Crazy Diamond has difficulty even *damaging* thick steel, as shown with Superfly, so, unironically, that feat could genuinely be used to say that Jonathon is, through raw physical ability, COMPARABLE TO STAR PLATINUM IN PART 3. Like it's such an insane feat in universe that kind of just gets absolutely slept on because Araki hadn't quite found his voice as a storyteller in part 1.

@@Soulfin Brother you can see and hear The Hand using its ability. There is no energy being returned if it’s straight up being erased/teleported. Therefore it is an outlier that cannot be explained.

Jonathan: Turquoise Blue Overdrive and Scarlet Overdrive) - Both use swords (even if Jonathan only gets his quarter and halfway through his story and doesn't even use it that much) Hell, their COLORS are swapped.

Seeing the victor wanting to amend for their wrongful action by taking the choice to protect those close to the fallen with their life in their place is a rarity here. Truly should be used as it shows there is more than just a battle to be won but a meaning behind that battle.

[@ryanw5500]

I thought Jonathan or DIO's analysis would start off with how their fathers met. DIO's father, Dario Brando, was looting a crashed carriage of Jonathan's father, George Joestar, believing everyone in it died. However, George revealed he survived and so did his infant son, the same couldn't be said for his wife though. George, believing Dario saved his life, swore to pay him back one day. Eventually, Dario would have his son, Dio, take advantage of the Joestar family's debt to him and had Dio live with them.

[@crerul]

This really makes me think how dangerous Jonathan would be against the demon slayer demons. The whole touch of death thing is nasty.

[@Urd-Vidan]

He's would be a powerhouse strong enough to fight off any demon, even Muzan. Plus, Hamon is just absurb with what it can do, like superhuman strength, speed, and abilities. It can even also travel through objects like swords, meaning that Jonathan can make any sword he wields into a Demon Slaying sword, maybe even more potent than what the Demonslayers have.

[@Urd-Vidan]

@akakakakakakakakakakakakakak47 Yes and Jonathan scales to Dio. Remember, Dio he's facing is prime body Dio, when DIO in Part 3, who can't properly use his body because it's Jonathan's, was able to easily match his own Stand's attack rush, and those reach light speed Plus, his entire body literally runs on Hamon. Touching him would be like a demon letting their hand sun bathe. Jonathan also has enhanced healing, can harden his body, and output punches that can melt a legendary hero turned vampire into mush.

[@Urd-Vidan]

@akakakakakakakakakakakakakak47 Yes while the Joestar blood does boost him significantly, he's still not in his full physical form, mainly because his body is still saturated by the Hamon Jonathan has on his body. If DIO were on his full physical form, he could've used his other vampiric abilities, like his liquid eye laser or his freezing ability. Hell, even after his high, at the final battle against Jojo, DIO's healing factor wasn't as strong as it was in Phantom Blood. It mainly his boost to his stand. Also, with the reaction time, that's mainly the stands themselves rather than the stand users. In the OVA, DIO, without his stand, was able to stand rush against Star Platinum on stopped time when it was an oil tanker instead of a road roller. Plus, we could also base some feats from Joseph to Jonathan(Jonathan is known to be the physically best out of all the Joestars, not that it helps him with stands around), who is able to match the Pillar men(though, with a bit of trickery, but nonetheless is able to keep up) who are fast enough to dodge explosions and parry machine bullets, they are also stronger physically than the likes of Dio. Hell, even if you look at his own fights, he has reacted to DIO's eye rays, that are hypersonic and reaches mach 3, even his attack speed is fast enough to create after images, just like Dio/DIO.

I noticed something during the initial clash of blades. Tanjiro managed to knock Johnathan’s sword aside, and could have easily landed a fatal blow, yet he chose to defend himself instead. Most likely because he didn’t want to kill Johnathan if he didn’t have to. However, because this is Death Battle, someone had to die.

[@dark7element]

A single stab or cut wouldn't be a "fatal blow" against a tank like Jonathan. He knew he had to strike a well-aimed vital blow to decide it. Going for an easy opening like that could've gotten himself killed.

[@FSoJG28597]

Post analysis side notes: 16:32 Even if they applied kinetic energy to Tanjiro's speed feats, the results would still be inferior to those of other major JoJo feats that Jonathan scales to, such as Jolyne deflecting meteorites. 16:50 While Joseph has had superior ripple training, he was able to keep up with Pillar Men (who have also reacted to light beams) while still a novice. 17:17 Jonathan's hamon healing was also superior to Tanjiro's; while Tanjiro could merely slow bleeding, Jonathan could heal entire broken limbs.
