『LITTLE BUSTER』 - リタル・バスター
STATS Destructive Power: A Speed: A Range: C Durability: B Precision: B Developmental Potential: A Little Buster manifests as a spindly, androgynous humanoid covered with interlocking plates completely from head to toe, terminating in sharp angles despite their organic flow over its form. The head resembles a streamlined full helmet with a “hood” jutting out over the sunglasses-shaped visor. The backs of the hands and feet, the sides of the head, and the limb joints are intersected by small dipyramids jutting out of the body. Similar pyramids distended into long spikes jut from the shoulders and the back of the head. The entire form is decorated with large, extended arrow patterns which terminate at the plating’s sharp edges.
I Think I Can: Little Buster can selectively displace the “potential” of materials, phenomenon, and objects it or its User comes in contact with. Displaced potentials can be retained by the Stand or imbued into another target, making that target inherit said potential. A bullet’s kinetic energy could be displaced into a car to send it hurtling through the air or smash it with the resulting impact, or a flame’s potential to consume matter could be displaced to set someone on fire or rapidly disintegrate a floor. Potential can even be “projected” through one material to another, provided they are in contact when Little Buster activates.

I guess you could call this one another personal Stand. FLCL was the first thing I saw growing up that really struck me with its raw power and the emotional charge of what it had to really say about growing up and the things that make you yourself. I didn’t necessarily understand what it was trying to say but it still resonated with me in that time of life we all have where we’re growing up and are somewhere between a kid and an adult. I still look back really fondly on it all the time and it reminds you of those moments of pure significance you had when you were young, and the music of The Pillows has come to embody that experience for me.
