I just gotta keep my distance! That's all! But my Aerosmith doesn't need to get close... to blow you to bits!

—Narancia Ghirga, Chapter 535

Aerosmith (エアロスミス Earosumisu) is the Stand of Narancia Ghirga, featured in Vento Aureo.

Appearance[]

Smith Anime

The pilot, Mr. Smith.

The Stand has the shape of a toy fighter jet piloted by a very small pilot named Mr. Smith (スミスさん Sumisu-san) inside.[1] The plane itself can be described as a propeller monoplane fighter in a tractor configuration (the propeller situated at the front), given features resembling eyes and a mouth. Its wheels are retracted under the fuselage, and its weaponry includes two machine guns under the wings and a single bomb attached under the fuselage.

Narancia has a unique method of recalling Aerosmith by spreading his arms horizontally and making the Stand land on them like a runway.

Abilities[]

Aerosmith is a powerful battle-oriented Stand possessing not only a wide array of powerful weaponry to destroy its enemies but also boasts above-average nimbleness due to its nature, size, and good range. Moreover, its ability to detect carbon dioxide makes it a great scout and radar.

Machine Guns and Bomb[]

Aerosmith is equipped with small machine guns on its wings shooting tracer bullets with infinite ammunition[2] and a single bomb which it can drop on its enemies.

Despite their reduced size, the weapons are still deadly. The tracer bullets can set gasoline on fire[3] and shoot through a human body;[4] the bomb has the power of a grenade.[2] However, due to the Stand's poor precision, Narancia prefers to unleash Aerosmith's full arsenal with reckless abandon in a short period of time to compensate, the sheer number of shots fired making up for the lack of precision.[2] As a last resort, the propeller itself can be used as a blade to slice enemies.[5]

Carbon Dioxide Radar[]

Narancia can detect lifeforms emitting CO2

Aerosmith also has a carbon dioxide radar that Narancia can use to find an enemy's position through their breath when they exhale.[6]

While active, a small mechanical radar levitates near Narancia's face, specifically his right eye, allowing him to see the location and size of sources as circular blips on the radar.[6] This makes it ineffective when there is a big crowd or large fire, as it is unable to distinguish between sources,[6] though Narancia is capable of deducing the sources based on the behavior of a single source. The heavier the carbon dioxide emission from a given source on the radar, the larger the blip will appear.[6] Narancia can also adjust the sensitivity of the radar in order to pick up sources on the level of small animals and even insects.[7]

Trivia[]

  • The anime adaptation uses a computer generated 3D model of Aerosmith in contrast to most previous Stands presented in the series which were drawn.
  • Aerosmith itself appears to be based on the German He 112.
  • This is the third stand that was made in a form of transportation, second being Wheel of Fortune, and first being Strength.
  • Narancia's use of a battle cry for Aerosmith is evocative of signature scatting sang by the real world Aerosmith's lead band singer Steven Tyler.
  • Aerosmith literally being an airplane may also be inspired by prominent flight and wings motifs associated with the band.
