For those who don't know what Wolf is talking about, in Jojo's Bizarre Adventure Part 5 (I didn't even know you were a Jojo fan until now!) the main character, Giorno, has a Stand (which is a supernatural being that fights alongside the character) called Gold Experience. An event that I won't spoil happens later on and it becomes Gold Experience Requiem.

Requiem has the power to reset the opponent's state back to zero. Actually, the way it was explained, he could reset just about anything back to zero. So if Goku tried to attack, Giorno could just have GER reset his attack power and everything back to nothing.

Araki (series creator) did kind of a troutty job explaining the full extent of GER's power to the point where he had Giorno explicitly mention in the manga itself that he didn't understand the power fully.

King Crimson (a later antagonist's Stand) is also so stupidly overpowered and convoluted that any questions fans have about the Stand are usually answered with a picture of King Crimson that reads, "it just works."

Part 4 was when some of the Stands got really weird, but Part 5 just took the weirdness to a whole new level.
