President Funny Valentine killed my good friend Gyro Zeppeli and is thus a terrible terrible person. Johnny however is a good + cool dude who I respect. Even if he would probably kill a baby if he really wanted to.

yeah, stuff like that is why poo poo like 'diego actually killed johnny's brother and is the reason behind his weird depression' sounds dumb no matter what. it entirely cheapens the character development in a part that's actually pretty great about it for the most part and comes out on top in the category compared to everything before it.

I feel like it adds an agent and a face to big event in Johnny's character where there doesn't need to be one. Like believe what you want about it, you're not wrong, but having Diego be behind it feels entirely unnecessary to me.

Johnny's character arc of learning how to like himself and find happiness in others is masterfully done, and the entire time, it's backed with a loving intense and gripping action story and scored with perfect emotional moments running the spectrum from ruminations on friendship to just silly goofs. Johnny is my favorite JoJo, no question.

Araki also thought having a bunch of people hittin on a 14 would be a great addition so I think it's fine to disagree with him on things.

Very true, but in a Part where the biggest problem is how much everyone wants to gently caress Lucy, its weird that people get on Mountain Tim's case specifically. Equal poo poo to everyone but like Valentine and alternate Diego both try to rape her so seeing how much everyone holds Tim's feet to the fire for wanting to marry her, telling her so and then leaving her alone when she tells him to.

Not that Tim deserves a medal for not trying to rape a 14 year old or he's Actually Noble, he's still a fucko, but hachi machi, there a lot of worse dudes around him

Because Tim's entire character is "I want to gently caress Lucy". That's all there is to him. Big P and Alternate D, even in the 3 or so chapters he exists, have more depth to them.

Also, everyone else who is creepy about Lucy is a villain (not that it makes it better) while Mountain Tim is supposed to be a sympathetic cool dude who has previously helped out our pals Johnny and Gyro. And then he says he loves a 14 year old girl, leaves and dies. So that confession is like his biggest scene and what people remember.

Well considering that Dio is Jojo from the neck and down, perhaps the real issue is that if you're in the Jojo family line, but not named Jojo, you become ugly as gently caress. (Haruno Shiobana knew that and hurried to change his name to Giorno Giovanna)
