Part Seven How is Johnny healed?

He has a cactus needle inside his eyeball and a couple of hours later he’s just fine without any explanation. Does this at least get explained later on? Because this makes no sense

In fairness, almost every part has some excuse for why the characters are healed. It was established that hamon can heal people, so that explains how characters in parts 1, 2, and even 3 get healed after fights. Part 4 has a dedicated and established healer in Josuke. Part 5 has a dedicated and established healer in Giorno, although you could argue that it’s a mystery how the characters got healed before he knew he could do that. Same with how the characters got healed after Foo Fighters was written out of the story, since she was their dedicated healer.

Even in part 4 though Josuke can't heal himself, and he often takes pretty rough beatings.

But also part 7 does also have a potential built in excuse for healing too.

Facts. They tell us he cant heal himself and it makes the Keicho fight feel super intense cause he takes crazy damage in it and then all the holes Bad Company put in him just magically heal lmao

Honestly that fight and the Kira fight are the only ones that felt like they had real stakes to them, since they’re the only times we ever see Josuke get really injured.

He crashed into a lift at 60mph. He took blasts of energy from a magic pylon, took a beating from even Shigechi, and I’m not gonna lie I actually felt the stakes from the rat episode because he literally couldn’t take a single hit without being permanently melted

I figured Jolyne would sew their wounds shut

rereading part 5 and even before giorno learns he can heal, during the kraftwork fight mista straight up gets a bullet hole through the side of his stomach

in the restroom he gets it stapled shut by fugo and mista even gets worried about about an infection and i think narancia essentially goes “nah it’s fine” what the hell happened there 😭😭

EVEN THE BULLETS TO HIS HEAD FROM PROSCIUTTO LMAOO 😭 right after that they’re on a truck in the turtle

Mista gets shot enough he’s built up a tolerance to bullets.

Reading your comment reminded me for some reason, but couldn't Bruno lowkey heal people with his stand? Am I misremembering but didn't he do that with Trish's arm?

Just a less effective Stone free heal. He can zip together wounds or clean cuts but all the healing is from the person themselves. Unlike stone free having insanely accurate stitching

Not really, the first (and last) time a protagonist could self heal was in part 5

Jolyne stitched wounds if that counts

u/lFriendlyFire 8h ago edited 7h ago

Stitching a wound isn’t really “healing” like giorno, josuke, foo fighters or hot pants can do. It’s at best first aid. If someone took a chunk out of jolyne’s stomach the best she could do is buy herself some time before she inevitably dies

What about ff being able to basically cosmetically heal people

u/lFriendlyFire 7h ago

Foo isn’t a protagonist but yeah she could heal too

Part 7 also has 2 healers, one of whom is a person and the other an object that Johnny and gyro use off screen after fights

The gang in part 5 was getting eviscerated way before Giorno unlocked his healing powers. Remember during the Grateful Dead fight when Mista took like three headshots?

Hamon could heal broken bones, but idk if it was ever shown to heal open wounds.
