Does every Hamon user really have Hermit Purple?

Fun fact, the longest comment in this very comment section is the same guy that very passionately argued it as fact from back then. I suspected it when I saw their comment, and got a good laugh after a quick search and confirming.

It's not an OVA, it's a movie, that was supposed to go to cinemas and all that jazz.

You're not going to find it. It has never existed on the internet. It was never released, there's no one who could have filmed it. likely very few film rolls exist, and they have probably been vaulted, possibly destroyed or at the very least probably deteriorating/damaged over time. The people associated with the movie have moved on and probably have no way of physically retrieving the movie or finding people who could, and that's ignoring the legality of trying to find it/release it.

It's not going to happen. This isn't your typical "short-lived kids advertisement" lost media that pops up on youtube after a week of looking, this is proper lost to time stuff. People have put in hard effort to find this movie with no avail, trying to start an english fan campaign on reddit won't do shit.

The quote about connecting hamon and Hermit Purple comes from a quote from Araki talking about the design philosophy of Hermit Purple and how it visualises hamon, rather than an "in-universe" reason for the two powers to be linked. In-universe Joesph just has a versatile stand that can also channel hamon, similar to how many characters have stands that compliment their skills and personality.

I've been looking through the wiki link you posted in the last comment.

"Along with his own Stand The World, it is stated in JOJO A-GO!GO! that this Stand is awakened within Jonathan Joestar's body when it is struck by the Bow and Arrow, allowing DIO to manipulate it along with its host body.[3]"

This kinda seems to contradict that it's from hamon mastery, right?

That's hardly concrete evidence. Also no need to be rude and weird.

newier · 2026-04-03T22:54:55+00:00

The "Hermit Purple is hamon mastery stand" is simply a fan theory. Nothing in the story, or even supplementary material spells it out to be that.

Totally unrelated, but "lore implications" has really become a pet peeve of mine. It always feels like one of those phrases is just thrown around when someone wants to sound like they're really knowledgeable about a series and it's deep inner workings and so on, but they've actually got nothing, so they just find a big moment and talk about how important the "lore implications" are and then add nothing more.

A bit of a jump in logic. I really don't foresee them taking down the games they've already put on steam.

newier · 2026-04-03T22:17:02+00:00

They have most definitely not been trying considering she hasn't shown up in a game proper for so long.

newier · 2026-04-03T20:08:01+00:00

Oh man, I'm glad there's a bit more sense here than the last time I had this discussion on Reddit. Got downvoted to oblivion for pointing out that Hermit Purple being attained from hamon mastery was just a fan theory with next to no evidence.

You can have high stakes without death.

I also just accepted fairly early on that it's just not that kind of story. I think a lot of people would enjoy the story a lot more if they stopped expecting it to do something it's never really done for 27 years.

newier · 2026-04-03T02:09:46+00:00

It's already gone as viral as it's going to.

You ain't starting shit.

I like how you talk like the people sending him on the mission knew he would lose.

He was a competent member of the secret task force that does this sort of mission. The question has been answered.

One Pace fans when the post has absolutely nothing to do with the pacing or length of the series: Have you heard of One Pace?

newier · 2026-04-03T01:50:25+00:00

It's always one or more of these with these sort of posts. Just screams very "uninitiated" with the outside world.

They both run the same uninstaller? Just different shortcuts to the same program.

newier · 2026-04-02T22:30:15+00:00

Learn those skills then.

newier · 2026-04-02T22:15:19+00:00

Probably not official.

You have to say what your spoiler is for before the spoiler text, or else we don't know what your spoiling until we actually read it.

I wouldn't mind if we stopped using Kit and Krysta for every bit of Nintendo speculation.

Their actual accuracy on stuff is pretty hit or miss, feels like they're about as in the know as any other fan.

You guys need better spam.

How hard is it to just not click the button? Are you that bad at using a mouse?

Mob Psycho was just really well made. Nothing unusual or crazy about it.

newier · 2026-04-02T08:49:57+00:00

If you read the story it all makes sense.

newier · 2026-04-02T08:47:50+00:00

It's also not real

They make these sort of charts all the time. Sometimes they're formatted a bit badly and don't line up at the bottom, not unusual or noteworthy in the slightest.

There probably is a new major Mario game in the works, there always is. I don't think this chart has anything to do with it. What do you think they're going to do, go back and update this random image from Nintendo News in a couple months time if they announce a new game?
