Diver Down is the Stand of Narciso Anasui in Stone Ocean, a close-range fighter clad in diving gear. It banks the force of its blows inside objects for later release and can sink into any solid to rebuild its insides from within.
Diver Down serves Narciso Anasui throughout Stone Ocean, and the story hints he awakened it before his imprisonment. It presents as a humanoid dressed in a stylized suit of scuba equipment, its surface marked by a distinctive D-shaped emblem, and it keeps a blue-green coloring wherever it appears.
At close quarters the Stand hits hard enough to lop off a head with one chop, yet its real value lies in a toolbox of tricks that turn the surroundings to Anasui's benefit, making it a dependable partner in a brawl rather than a pure slugger.
Its first displayed trick is banking power. When Diver Down lands a punch or kick on a surface, the shock of that impact is packed away inside the object, and whenever Anasui chooses, the stored energy erupts back out as the matching limb striking from within. He can also lodge the Stand inside a person's body so that any harm they take is rerouted into Diver Down instead, shielding them, and it can even stand in for a missing limb.
The signature power is restructuring: the Stand slips through solid matter and then reworks whatever it enters from the inside out. Diving into an object or body, it can tear the internal makeup apart or reassemble it fresh, and it even reaches into other Stands, as when Anasui fused a frog's brain into Yo-Yo Ma. That lets him fashion elaborate contraptions like spring traps, reroute a bottle's neck along its side, or twist bone and muscle into coils. He can also pluck out things too fused to cut, such as parasitic plants growing in Jolyne, or bury foreign material inside a body.
Narciso Anasui is the sole wielder, a prisoner and admirer of Jolyne Cujoh who leans on the Stand's phasing and reshaping to solve problems that raw force could not. His creativity with the storage and restructuring powers repeatedly turns the environment and even his own body into an asset during the group's struggles.

Naruto vs Luffy with the twist nobody asked for: Luffy tickled Hinata on date night, and she kind of liked it. We break down the whole fight and commit to a winner....

There are no women on Namek. That isn't an oversight, it's the biology. Why we handed Piccolo the one thing his own species rules out, and why it had to be trap soul....
Diver Down takes its name from Diver Down, a Van Halen album, which fits the Stand's appearance as a humanoid dressed in stylized scuba diving gear.
Diver Down is wielded by Narciso Anasui, a prisoner and admirer of Jolyne Cujoh in Stone Ocean. He awakened the Stand before his imprisonment and relies on its phasing and reshaping powers to solve problems that raw force could not.
Diver Down is a formidable close range Stand: it can decapitate an opponent with a single strike, and its power storage and restructuring abilities give Narciso Anasui a versatile toolkit for turning both the environment and his own body into weapons.
Diver Down can bank the force of an impact inside a surface it strikes, storing the shock of a punch or kick inside an object. Narciso Anasui can then release that stored energy later as the same limb striking back out from within the object.
Diver Down's signature power lets it slip inside solid matter and rework it from within, tearing apart or reassembling a body's internal structure. Narciso Anasui has used this to build spring traps, reroute objects, twist bone and muscle, and even fuse a frog's brain into another Stand.
