Yeah but why wouldn't Joseph tell him about their friend's death throes and how that actually let Joseph figure out DIO's stand.

yea of all the things to share 'hey man your friend died horribly but in that death he was actually able to help me figure the stand out and pretty much save us all' is probably up there in things even Terrible Parent Joseph Joestar would know are good ideas to go with.

Another thing I have noticed rewatching jojo that is NOT racism related is how much they talk about fate, about jonathan and dio being tied together, etc. So far basically every part has been Dio's fault, either directly or indirectly. I wonder if this will keep up in Part 5. They also talk about the gods of fate a bunch in phantom blood. I wonder if they will ever show up. It seems like with Josuke apaprently going back in time to save himself as a child things could collide like that...

I wish I had a Stand that could destroy this post. At least once part 4 ends I can tell people to cut it out with the time travel thing.

He looks kinda like Josuke, so it has to be Josuke. I mean, it's not like Josuke directly based his entire aesthetic on that person, which is the entire point of that anecdote being there in the first place.

Also, while DIO's influence is felt in Part 4, I wouldn't say the entire part is his fault in any way. It's more Diavolo's fault.

I do seriously wonder if Josuke going back in time somehow was something Araki was considering early in Part 4.

Though the Arrow would not have made it to Morioh if not for DIO.

According to the wiki there were 6 Arrows, 5 of which were sold by Diavolo to Enya and DIO.

I guess there'd be 6 if you included Black Sabbath, but that seems like a weird one to count. That's part of a Stand, so I wouldn't think that was one of the excavated Arrows.

Isn't Keicho's arrow the one that Dio used?

I don't remember (and maybe it was never stated either way) whether Dio and Enya gave that arrow to Nijimura Sr. or if Keicho found it in Dio's mansion during his fact-finding expedition, or what.

The history of the arrows isn't very well explained, but here's my understanding (using the wiki to refresh my memory but ignoring some unsourced statements I can't remember the basis of):

1: The only one Diavolo didn't sell to Enya. Given to Polpo so Black Sabbath could stab people with it.
2: Given by Enya to Yoshihiro, I guess as a favor to a fellow parent of a serial killer? Possibly destroyed when Yoshihiro's picture was destroyed near the end of Part 4.
3: Found by Keicho somewhere, stolen by Akira, retrieved by Speedwagon Foundation. Possibly the one Jolyne gets a piece of, although it could be the unknown 6th arrow. May have been the one Dio was stabbed with.
4: Recovered by Polnareff (from Dio's mansion? Without telling Jotaro about it?). Taken by Giorno and used to awaken GER. May have been the one DIo was stabbed with. May have been the one Dio gave to Pucci (they both have an insect design).
5-6: May have been the one Dio was stabbed with and/or the one Dio gave to Pucci. Araki Forgot.

The exact history of the arrows given to Enya is one of those things that are never really given a satisfying explanation, along with the details of how Keicho learned everything about Dio and Jotaro, the original creator of the arrows in the first place, Diavolo's paternity, what trauma caused Diavolo to develop a split personality, the infamous "second coffin," and probably other things I've forgotten.

I was thinking about this a little while ago and came to the conclusion that without DIO, Keicho doesn't need to kill his Dad, so he never goes on his archery spree. Angelo never gets his stand, remains in prison and doesn't mess with Joseph's spirit photos.

This would drastically alter the circumstances of Joestars coming to Morioh and would lead to drastically different story, if they even still showed up and didn't just send a solicitor or something.

Jotaro still would have went to Morioh to talk to Josuke about Joseph and the will, right? Of course, with no DIO no Joestar would have stands so the nature of Jotaro's trip and what would happen during it would be very different.

And because of no Stands, Josuke would have never gotten sick at 4 years old, never met the kind-hearted ruffian who saved him, and as a result would not have a pompadour.
