When it comes to powers:
The World, RHCP, Crazy Diamond
When it comes to design:
Silver Chariot, Killer Queen, Echoes Act 2 & 3
By the end of this final cour anime only Jojo fans will fully understand why I would choose Killer Queen.
I really like the stand Thoth for some reason. Maybe it's the goofy artstyle or the goofy scenarios it predicts, but I've loved it ever since I first saw it. I would totally watch a spin off show of the Boingo brothers trying desperately to achieve their goals through Thoth's predictions only to have them fail spectacularly. 
As for stands that you could use in battle, I like the The Fool, but it was seriously underused in SC. I would have enjoyed seeing more of it.

I just had an idea.
Couldn't Josuke use Crazy Diamond on the nail clippings and follow them to Kira? Or would it not work since nails are made from dead cells?

Okuyasu is so dumb. I guess that's one way to nerf the effectiveness of his stand.

I think anime wife looked more disheveled but manga wife was more beaten down
"Better tidy up before my husband finds my crack pipe."
Higher res:
It's hard to say, but...
In general, Stands don't work on strict rules like (say) Hunter x Hunter rules, they work on (mostly) intuition. Fingernails don't seem like an integral part of a person in the same way a hand is.

Kira is now inhabiting Kosaku Kawajiri's body so it wouldnt work anyway

I already know Stands don't have rules and stuff, but it would help a lot if it was made a little more clear what Crazy Diamond can and cannot fix, besides just "not being able to bring back the living".
He only changed his face and hair and the fingerprints on his right hand.

Everyone should do this.
There's a Tumblr called Out of Context JoJo, it features stuff from later parts so avoid it if you're anime only, but the theme/idea of it still holds: Take a random screenshot or page/panel from the manga, or heck show them a short scene (like Kira revealing his stand to Shigechi) and show it someone whose never watched JoJo.
Then ask them to explain it.
"Is Jojo really that bizarre?"
This is still such a beautifully bizarre scene no matter how often I see it.
It was.
You know that would have happened had nowadays-Araki written Part 4.
I'm just here to express again how joyous the Jojo's Bizarre Adventure makes me. The english clips I keep seeing are wonderful - I think I will watch the dub afterall.
Also Kawajiri Kosaku's craggy hair, man. That slow head turn at the end of the episode... I must have watched that 10 times. I get it but... it's just so fucking weird.

Kira has nails that grew back already, old nails wouldn't work.

That's still the funniest/weirdest Jojo scene I've ever seen...then again Part 2 had some shit that was weird as fuck too for a first time watcher.

Favorite stand is the main villan stand from Part 5. People will know why in 2-ish years
Crazy Diamond

Probably Heaven's Door.
I think he's disguising his voice a little.

B. Objects like that count as its own separate object.

Killer Queen. Great ability great design and, the most important factor of all, its named after my favorite Queen song.
You read my mind.

You just know you're boring as fuck when Kira stands out more than you.

here is something I dont get. kira only changed his face, hair and hands. he did not change his body.
shouldn't the wife notice that her husband's body is different?? did kira change the color of his pubes ? did he change the shape of his penis too ??
That might just be his normal salary man voice even when he was in his original body. Remember he only sounds all cocky when he's in the stand fights. He needs to seem as normal and bland as possible.

Direction was a bit sloppy and too fast more my taste, but overall it was good. Kira's new life segments were amazing, but some of the Yoshiro set up was duuuuumb. Maybe it's because of the manga liberties that you tend to fix with your imagination, but I didn't interpet Koichi and Okuyasu being this stupid in the manga.
This is the point in the manga where Araki's art starts to become especially detailed and unique, and where the fights become more "elaborate", so I'm a little bit worried about how they're going to handle the art direction. Edgar Wright transitions are mostly dead, and the corner cutting is becoming more obvious.

They did have one at the start of the recent episode, though.
