Oh but to be more specific, this argument is kinda pointless because KC didn't hit Giorno's head. He hit Gold Experience

Only in odd-numbered parts. In even-numbered parts, the villain gets the deus ex machina, but loses anyway. Part 7 actually goes back and forth with like 4 deus ex machinas, though.
It's not a deus ex machina when spin and the holy corpse are the only vehicles of power in the story

Does that matter at all when his stand can't channel hamon?
DIO mentioned when Polnareff sneak attacked him that had Polnareff had the slightest bit more time to move the rapier he could've skewered DIO's brains and disabled him. It's arguably a retcon from when he was split in half in part 1 but it's what he said.

plus showing proof of a medical procedure is way different and more invasive than just having a visible piece of cloth on your face.

He's definitely the most intimidating rival imo, he had that great moment in ep50 where Yuya challenges him over the morality of his actions and Reiji just bodies him and goes "you wanna do it your way, get stronger. We're at war here"

Also remember him getting into a duel with like 15 academia members and destroying all their cards at once in a panning shot

It was important for Johnny to lose to Diego to underscore that he didn't learn how to walk alone. Gyro carried, nurtured, and taught him, he took his first steps with Steven and Lucy by his side and once again it was them who helped him regain his footing in a hopeless situation.

To say that Jolyne failed is to say that her final actions were a waste or thwarted by Pucci. The stringed dolphin and deducing that Pucci can't outrun them by sea is one of the most ingenious conclusions to any situation in the series. It is seriously jaw-dropping-ly clever. She wasn't lucky enough to be blessed with some crazy deus ex machina like Giorno or her father so she worked with what she had.

Weather Report couldn't beat Pucci in the open either and Jolyne didn't have time to exploit Pucci's ability like Emporio did

I'd say the standout inconsistency (disregarding all the straight up logic fucks that are basically the point of the stand) is KC making a point to evade Sticky Fingers' punches during erased time and erasing time for tiny moments to predict the path of Mista's bullets, but just going 'fuck it' and phasing through Aerosmith's bullets when Risotto grabbed him.

The World stops other people and objects from moving without your input.

King Crimson allows you to change your personal fate in a set span of time while keeping the consequences of your original, 'fated' actions before the ability is triggered.

King Crimson is a much bigger reality fuck than The World.

For example Diavolo was able to elude the maid and gather all his gangster evidence simultaneously because he skipped time and fled but the original fate of the photos being collected and set in his possession was preserved. King Crimson lets you have your cake and eat it too.

The biggest weakness of King Crimson is Diavolo's own temperament and refusal to use the stand in a more aggressive way due to his paranoia.

...So is this implying it's a problem to be attracted to the same gender? Like it's saying, "No, it's not gay, because it's totally not a human man. See? It has a tail." Like it'd be less of a problem if it was a Pokmon instead of just a regular guy?
...I think the point is the sexual tension with his Pokemon, not whether it's a gay relationship.

The dynamic of John ostensibly shrugging when he sees what is done to Venom which is basically worse than what the CIA did to The Boss or what she did to John is good but honestly his biggest sin straight up was not going to get Kaz and instead sticking him with a dupe.

The ending of Peace Walker is a better descent into evil than anything you see in MGSV, honestly.
I think MGSV is underrated, its issue is that it refuses to be anything but a video game first in a series of movie games, but the theming, progression, and characterization in MGSV is a lot more intelligent than its given credit for. It's Kazuhira's game as much as it is Venom's. The way Kaz's torture porn gets ruined by Huey is unironically genius and that Chapter 2 is him directing Venom to continue to pointlessly fuck with more Cipher goons shows him getting consumed just like they did. He built up a private military enterprise just to make one guy suffer and when he was finished he learned nothing. Outer Heaven became a directionless tool for warfare that was only redeemed by Kaz's respect for Big Boss and then finally that was shattered

I personally love the way The Boss is in MGS3 but I think the series's contiued focus on "the interpretation of her will" ruined pretty much every other MGS3 character in all the post-MGS3 games
Personally I kinda like how the revelations at the end of MGS3 are so crushing that it pretty much breaks everyone associated with the mission

And how John rejects her self sacrifice at the end of Peace Walker and really becomes Big Boss

And even how the role Venom is forced to play causes him to reconcile with The Boss' feelings
