Don't feel bad about it. Kiras a well written character. I've noticed a LOT of people on here and the StardustCrusaders subreddit, and just on the internet in general, who always seem to feel the need to qualify thier appreciation of a character like Kira.

Nobody is going to think youre a mass murderer because you can emphasize with Kira. Depictions of something doesnt mean you endorse that thing by liking the depiction.

I really do enjoy the fact that Araki can write engaging villains that are likeable without making them sympathetic. Mmmmost of the time, I mean, Valentine would have been absolutely perfect if Araki didn't feel the need to make him come across as skeezy wtr Lucy, and Dio gets into the audience's good graces on entertainment value alone (whether it's the ROADO ROLLER DA or if you're like me and revel in how childish he is and the logical leaps his mind takes), but Kira really does a good job of striking that balance. He's entertaining and relateable despite being an Actual Serial Killer, and Araki's really interested in the whole serial killer thing too, so that's gonna leak out and effect how he's written.

Plus, it's inherently funny that he really just does want a quiet life...and is a serial killer. Like how Morioh is this small sleepy town and oh by the way is filled with Stand users, who are by definition the least mundane people ever.

The only bad thing about that Pooch figure is that he has his Heaven head, but there's no C-Moon or Made in Heaven figures. The Whitesnake one is extremely good though.

As for the hat, no idea.

He's a swarthy Italian man so hair growing in places it shouldn't be is normal.

They saw a black couple being happy, and we can't have that in Florida.

Also they were filthy papists.

He wore the hat right after leaving the prison, while Whitesnake was still transforming into C-Moon. He's got it on his head when he accidentally super-ages a bunch of eggs and half a baby after catching them with his developing speed powers.

Pucci found out that the guy his little sister started seeing was actually their brother, and was like "well I can't just tell her, it will traumatize her for life" so he hired a guy to break the couple up. The guy turned out to be a secret KKK member (but still accepted the job from Pucci? who is...visibly not white??), and when he did some digging he found that Wes Bluemarine's (adopted) mom used to be married to a black man, so he assumed that Wes was mixed (which I guess, looking at Pucci, his twin brother...is true??), and got mad that Wes was dating a white girl. So instead of Wes having a wacky story about how he had to break up with a girl when he was 16 because some weird old private dick yelled at him, Stone Ocean happened.
