"If this were a game of chess between us, this would easily class as a checkmate!" - DIO (DIO, ćƒ‡ć‚£ć‚Ŗ)[]

Summary[]

The World is the Stand of DIO, the main antagonist of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders.

The World is an exceptionally powerful close-range Stand, similar to Star Platinum. With its powerful dealing moves, this Stand can be very powerful when utilized correctly. This Stand also has a shiny counterpart of itself: Retro The World.

This Stand has a 0.4% (S-Tier percentage) chance of coming from a Stand Arrow because it is a part of the Arrow Stand Pool. Regarding its shiny (Retro The World), the likelihood of receiving it with a Stand Arrow is approximately 0.07% (S+ Tier percentage). To obtain its Christmas equivalent, the player must utilize a Green Present while in possession of a The World.

Appearance[]

The World has a very muscular appearance and humanoid build, similar to Star Platinum. It wears a pentagon-shaped headpiece, covering its face to below the place of its nose.

The main color scheme of the Stand is yellow, with shades of grey and neon green on different parts of its body. It dawns two oxygen tanks on its back. The back of both its hands bears the shape of a humanoid face. Its chin, the base of its abdomen, groin region, chin, and knees are topped by neon green heart shapes.

As for the shiny, Retro The World has a more white, gray, and golden color scheme. Golden hearts are placed around on the Stand. On its back are twin diving cylinders, connected via short twin ridged cables to the rear of its mask; perhaps secured by thick, ridged, or puffed straps running from the rear of its waist over both its shoulders to its front. It has the same color scheme as The World from the OVA from 1993. Strangely, the face for Retro The World is different from its non-shiny counterpart as the chin/head appears to be more wide than narrow unlike its counterpart.

Note: Certain Stands such as Gold Experience Requiem can simply eliminate your time stop, causing time to resume. Tusk ACT4 can move through stopped time upon using its Self-Nullification Blow. Star Platinum: The World and Star Platinum (Stone Ocean) can move in it briefly. Star Platinum can override your time stop, freezing you and letting them move during the stopped time. This adds 5 more seconds to the clock that time is stopped.

Evolved Forms[]

(LMB + DIO's Diary) - The World (Over Heaven)

After defeating the likes of DIO, the user will glance at the secretive, vague paths retold to attain heaven. The stand user thrusts up DIO's Diary into the air, and thus evolves The World's ultimate form: The World: Over Heaven. This evolved form also applies for its shiny, Retro The World.

(LMB + Vampire Mask) - Vampiric The World

The player pulls out the Vampire Mask and holds it up to the air. The player then forcefully shoves the Vampire Mask into their face. Instantly, The World will ascend into its Vampiric form, granting the player: Vampiric The World. This evolved form also applies for its shiny, Retro The World.

Trivia[]

The World:[]

  • The World is one of the earliest Stands in the game, being created when it first started production, with Pot Platinum being the first.
  • The World's voicelines are, ā€œABSOLUTE WEAKLING!", ā€œWRYYYY", ā€œFilthā€, and, "If this was a game of chess, this would count as checkmate".
  • The Stand's design is based on the mascot for the band Dio, specifically the giant monster posing in the album cover of Holy Diver. The design of the Stand plays on the theme of a literal diver, featuring an oxygen tank on the back of The World.
  • This Stand is based on the anime color scheme of The World, rather than the manga colors, which are various shades of yellow.
  • When doing a WRYYY Strike (R move), The World rotates its fist the same way it did in the manga/anime when it punched a gaping hole in Kakyoin's abdomen in stopped time. This is also shared with any version of The World except Shadow The World since it does an uppercut.
  • This Stand was featured in the Easter Event as The Omelette.
  • Upon posing, it will play Dark Rebirth. This used to be Shadow The World's pose music.
  • It has been said this Stand as well as its variants will eventually be remodeled.
  • It was confirmed that this Stand will be reworked in the rewrite.
