Yeah they probably made that up to make it not seem like it was for copyright. They're not gonna change arakis vision on a whim without an actual legal reason

I thought that as well for super long, I'll have to look it up again, but I don't think that's actually the case, I think it really was more of like,, a weird cultural choice of the translation team, something about them wanting to preserve the japanese version or something?? It was really weird, I'll have to see if I can find the interview again

When giorno was a kid, he still kinda had powers even though he couldnโ€™t fully manifest his stand. Maybe this was a similar situation

Regarding Mista's backstory and him not being hit even once plays into the East Asian ideas about luck as a sign that you're on the correct path in your life, following destiny - it's also why Kira was so obsessed with being lucky. Mista just instinctively went into a shootout, walked out without a scratch and went "Yep, I guess this is what I was meant to do".

Then it must've been a preemptive to avoid a copyright suit, rather than a response to a copyright suit

Actually, I'm not sure if the copyright reason that always gets brought up is the actual reason for these changes That gets mentioned a lot by fans, but I don't think I ever saw an actual source for that claim, more recently I remember seeing an interview by one of the translation directors who said it was an in-studio decision or something, a really weird situation with them apparently doing so willingly?

Mistas true stand name is Sex Pistols. Sadly, the producers were forced to change it to Six Bullets for dumb copyright reasons
