Summary[]

Crazy Diamond is the Stand of Josuke Higashikata, the main protagonist of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Diamond is Unbreakable.

With the stand's main ability being its restoration powers, this stand is mostly used for healing other fellow players. However, it is also viable for combat, due to its passives and it dealing high amounts of damage when it's used properly.

This stand is a part of the Arrow Stand Pool, in which it has a 16.5% chance (C-Tier percentage) of obtaining from a Stand Arrow. As for both of its shinies, there is a ~0.07% chance (S+ Tier percentage) of obtaining either of them.

Appearance[]

Crazy Diamond is humanoid, with a muscular build and tall stature. Clad in tall headgear, part of a mask; and armor-like plates covering many surfaces of its body, similar to the armor seen on The World. As for its shiny, Crazy Ruby has the cyan, pink and grey are replaced with shades of red and gold, as well as some bits of green.

Cables join the back of its head to its upper back. It bears a heart motif between the top of its head, its chin, shoulders, celiac plexus, belt, and knees; with pairs of short spikes protruding from its shoulders and ankles.

Its most common color scheme consists of a bubblegum pink interior and light blue or silver armor. It has multiple irides with a ripple-pattern on its eyes, and its "flesh" and armor seemed to be inverted in which layer of it they resided on, giving its "flesh" the appearance of some sort of membrane.

Trivia[]

Crazy Diamond:[]

When posing, Diamond Is Unbreakable, the theme of Josuke Higashikata will play.
Crazy Diamond is one of the first stands to come out during ABD's release.
On 2/12/2020, Crazy Diamond got a major revamp, in which the stand gained the passive ability, Vengeance/"Bring out....your Killer Queen!"
This Stand's name is a reference to Pink Floyd's song, Shine On You Crazy Diamond.
If you press F then press Q, your character gets the healing aura Crazy Diamond gets.
Crazy Diamond and Shadow The World shares the same trait partially, in the case of manifesting without having your stand out.
This is one of the few stands in the game that can change its moveset. Other stands/specs that can do this are Shadow The World, Anubis, King Crimson (Two Arm Doppio), Tusk ACT4, Gold Experience, and Silver Chariot (Requiem includes different abilities).
Unlike other stands or specs, Crazy Diamond has only 1 voice line, which is "I won't let anyone get away with making fun of my hair, no matter who it is!"The only other stand that only has 1 voice line is King Crimson (Doppio).
Crazy Diamond used to have a different voice line. "This is going to be great."
When using Crazy Diamond's wall creation move the wall changes colors depending on where you're standing. (It may even take the color of a person's torso if you stand on them).
Crazy Diamond's fists have a pale pink trail that follows it, but it's hardly noticeable unless it's barraging.
When on low HP, Crazy Diamond heals others faster because of its passive A.
This Stand is currently the Fastest Healer in the whole game (Admin Stands Excluded)
Crazy Diamond will be reworked in the future.

The new CD/R model resembles that of the Diamond is Unbreakable 2017 live action movie
Hit effects progressively get bigger as Passive A takes effect.
Whether it's intentional or a glitch Passive A doesn't have a cap, meaning that a player would do extremely high damage at very low health. It's also unknown if this effects every version of Crazy Diamond, meaning that only the shiny versions could have it or just non-shiny Crazy Diamond.
