See, at this point I just roll with it since the stand will dissapear in 2 episodes and never be seen again.
It's legit one of those anime at this point.

Okay so like....this is an odd one. Dragon's Dream is....is a Stand fight alright. Fighting sure is what's happening here I suppose, yup. I always thought this one was weird.
The big meme around say King Crimson was "It just works" because even though its concept was easily understood there were slight differences in how its power worked in different scenes, it was more a loosely defined power than a strictly depicted one, and the (at the time) shitty manga translations didn't help matters. So people got confused, and eventually just said "fuck it, who cares. it's cool and it works, whatever.".
Dragon's Dream however, is so much more of a "It just works" case for me personally not just because of the target concept (which yes, is pretty interesting I won't lie), but because of the fact that even after we get the exposition dump from Annasui on the general principle of Feng Shui there's still the bizarre aspect of Kenzou being able to stick his hand into the Dragon and sort of auto-attack his opponent, but the opponent is attacked themself if they do it despite the Dragon's neutrality? What???
Clearly I'm missing something here. I gotta be missing something.
Part 6 Stands, am I right?
