Hi, So there are some minor abilities to be added on his profile.
Shouldn't Joseph Joestar have supernatural luck and instinctive reaction here are the following examples.
  1. Supernatural Luck: Catching a plane during his fight with Kars, Admitting his plans plans are real to Kars when he was being punched into space when meanwhile it was his luck that made Kars sucked into space
  2. Instinctive Reaction: Took the aja stone to block Kars hit and when his cut hand blocked Kars (Need more example can anyone mention them below)
These are part of his natural schtick as a character.
 
He got lucky yeah, but it isn't supernatural luck, he just got really ******* lucky one time. If you had to chalk it up to something, it'd be Joestar Destiny, which is an actual thing that exists for some reason according to Araki.

And yeah, but doesn't he already have that? I had that in a CRT I like 10 months ago, it should be on the profile right?
 
Huh, he doesn't, yeah Instinctive Reactions is aight, we must've just like, forgot to do that because that shit was definitely accepted, we even discussed it pretty in depth in the same CRT were he got his minor 4th wall awareness.
 
It wasn't supernatural luck, he just got super ******* lucky one time.

It's not a power he has, it's not something that happens often, he just got really lucky one time and it saved not only his, but the whole world's ass.
Getting lucky once, no matter how lucky it might've been, even if it's a 1/1000000000 chance, isn't inherently a power or ability, in the same vain some dude winning the lottery doesn't mean he's supernaturally lucky. Joseph isn't Poco Loco lads.

If you want to chalk it up to something, it'd be Joestar Destiny, in which it'd be a combo of Blessed and Fate manip, not luck, but that's if it's even that to begin with, Joestar definitely has some passive fate shit going on, this is flat out confirmed by Araki, but in this particular instance, he might've just got lucky, once.
 
or surviving the crush from the flying stone when he was fighing Kars

or grabbing the sleldgehammer thanks to Ceasar Ring
 
None of that is super luck dude, that's just shit that happened, some of which was unlikely, and some of which isn't even lucky but just shit you'd expect to have happened.

We're not giving him supernatural luck, getting lucky once in awhile isn't the same as having an actual supernatural ability that grants Joseph an uncanny ability to have things happen to his extreme benefit, maybe once or twice, but it's very blatantly not a thing.
 
Disagree with Supernatural Luck, might as well give him Plot Manipulation too, given the event was literally just an ass pull made from the plot.
 
Yeah disagree. IMO Supernatural Luck should be like, specifically statements only.
 
We don't give supernatural luck without specific statements.

Instinctive reactions is fine.
 
Instinctive is fine.



Joseph's body unconsciously moved the Aja due to it's subconscious will to survive, despite Joseph having given up. Explicitly noted to have been an unconscious action.

Though note, this only ever explicitly happened one time, maybe more, but only one time blatantly, in a life or death situation.
 
Go ahead, Chapter 112 of Part 2 fyi is the specific chapter.
 
sorry i made a little mess, but i reverted the edits,i hate to add abilities when there are multiple abilities sections, you don't understand anything

i'm sorry to ask but can anyone else do it?
 
Added, didn't do reference though (It's ch112 in case anyone was wondering), his ability section in general doesn't have references, as such, ill make a sandbox later and just do references for them all at once to save time.
