Damn it, why it does need to remain only four bullets!?
I hate to break it to y'all but Kobayashi's just acting like that to set up the joke on the next panel.

Don't shoot him?

...
...




the wiki confirms that he is, in fact, 20 years old.

which, yeah, is kinda hard to tell given how fast and loose ages are used in this series where basically everyone looks to be at least 25. makes a little more sense than some 30+ dude hanging out with the gang however much, at least.

Does he really think that Koichi, of all people, is going to come after him if he doesn't hang around acting all servile?

Yes

If you must blink, do it now.
Kobayashi's still a punk, Koichi just "Scared him straight" so to speak. His overly servile attitude is reserved for Koichi only, and when the kid ain't around he tends to drop it quick. He does so in this very chapter in fact, going from bright-eyed admiration to "Eh, whatever" the minute the group's outta earshot.

As for why he's helping them, it's somewhat loosely implied later he's been pressured into helping Jotaro track down anybody who might've been shot by the arrow.

Clearly the true power of Echoes is taking height from everyone it beats and transferring it to Koichi.

pretty Kobayashi acting that way is just a gag on people being super deferential to people they respect

it's part of why he's tiny now: he's a gag character now

Frankly, I don't like you
and I never have.
I love Dio as much as any man, but everyone knows it's all about Kakyoin.

I mean, I don't disagree in the slightest, but revealing that is a risky venture. Show the faintest trace of affection for Kakyoin around here and somebody'll be around promptly to punch a hole through your heart. I guess some people feel threatened by the noodle.
