If your fanstands' fights were animated, which would be the best?

Yea like the title says, which of your fights would be nicest to watch? Can be in terms of choreography, emotional weight or even sheer visual spectacle. Would love to hear the details!

Personally, I still haven't thought up a fight as visually interesting as my Part 1 finale(MC group vs Escher). For context, the simplified explanation powers of the MC team at this point of the story is move copying+AOE punches+blood oxytocin stat boost, teleportation via digital screens, stretching stuff, and decomposition manipulation via bites. Basically, stuff most effective at close to mid-range. Escher, on the other hand, has staircase creation and gravity reverse, with a hilariously large range. Fight takes place around downtown Hong Kong, especially Victoria Harbour and its surroundings. What makes this fight visually striking is the trippy visuals as gravity keeps getting flipped, forcing the MC group to transverse the terrain using their powers and the rules of stands creatively. Best visual is prolly the very start, where the MCs use the stand of a heavily injured opponent to create a bridge, hijack a minivan and ride to Escher's location, as he darkens the skies with staircases connected to clouds and suck water and ships out of Victoria Harbour as obstacles. Imagine driving on a transluscent bridge, waterspouts all around, narrowly dodging container ships and debris.

Also off-topic: Regarding my last post here regarding stand voting, Cruel Angel's Thesis won and is nearly done, i'm left with drawing the stand itself and finishing touches of the users. NGL, i'm not that good at art so...prepare to be disappointed? yea! Thanks for reading!

Need help deciding which stand to prioritise developing

Got a bit too many stands in various stages of development or ideation, so I'm stretching myself too thin for the posts. Based on the names please vote for the one that sounds most interesting to you!

This poll likely decides the posting order give or take some extras for weeklies.

「Double Take」"Everywhere you go, you'll never be able to let me go. This is my curse to you"

Namesake: song by dhruv

Type: Artificial non-humanoid

Stand appearance: A gas cloud, constantly emitting a static hum. Looks like a TV's static

User: "Rapunzel"(nickname, real name unknown), a gangster associated with the Dreams faction

Stats:

Strength: N/A

Speed: A

Range: D for main stand, A for ability

Durability: D

Precision: E

Potential: E

Ability:

「Double take」needs a surface which evicts pareidolia to take effect. The surface must resemble a face and is within view of the target.

When Rapunzel passes 「Double take」over the surface, it becomes an actual face and acts as a CCTV. The eyes can be used to spy on the target and its surroundings, while the mouth can be used to communicate with the target.

Once 「Double take」takes effect, it tracks the target everywhere like a homing missile, taking effect on the nearest pareidolia-inducing surface.

The target can be both human and non-human, as long as it is visible to the naked eye.

The surface has to be non-living and visible to the naked eye, but has no upper size limit given that it once worked on a smiley face shaped neighbourhood. If the target is in the surface, Rapunzel will feel the movement of the target within the surface on her face.

User appearance: Trendy 2020s style woman in her mid 20s, lesbian, single pink highlight on her right bang, birthmark in the shape of a broken heart on her left shin. Nicknamed Rapunzel due to her extremely long hair, which she often ties into a messy ponytail and shortens into multiple buns.

Lore: With the discovery of a secret third faction inciting a major gang war between the Dreams and the Chaos gangs to destabilise the gang scene on an island, the MC group teams up with the top stand users in both gangs to flush out the third faction. Rapunzel, despite having a non-combat stand, possesses the largest ranging and most versatile recon stand. Mostly helps with behind the scenes communication and surveillance. Eventually helps to remove the third faction and joins the merger of both gangs, becoming the Tomorrows.

In the attack of the First Stand User(FSU), she was not enlisted for the infiltration of the mothership, instead staying on the ground and maintaining communications between allied heroes against the infantry of the FSU on the island.

In the epilogue, she is seen in the background helping with the continued running of gang operations.

Thanks for reading! I don't want the flair if i win (was gonna post this stand soon anyway, the theme of last week just fast tracked its development) and the next theme suggestion is Folklore
