I like how they keep the jojo in his name with giogio, but it also has the io from DIO.

I have so many questions about the picture in Giorno's wallet. Mainly because it's a picture of DIO posing seductively in the darkness.

Did DIO make a naked selfie for Gio's mom? Did Gio just steal his father's naked selfie to carry around in his wallet? :psyduck:

Dio used the spirit photo power copied from Joseph's stand to take a selfie so he could see what Joseph was seeing and prepare, probably

and then handed off the copy to Gio's mom I guess

The slightly more mature face and art style change for this part just makes how tiny he is stand out even more.

Hi!
I like how Koichi was grilling Giorno for looking like a school kid when Giorno offered a ride.
loving Koichi of all people.

I've forgotten about a lot of part 5, same as with every other part when I watched the anime, but I remember Bruno being the loving best and I love him.

Bruno has the best Stand fights, maybe in the series of a single secondary character.

The face-licking really should have been longer and hyper-detailed. I was hoping for some dramatic pupil-dilation.

Josuke is the weird exception to the rule being easily the second nicest Jojo after Jonathan, but yes, don't expect any Jojo from Joseph onwards to be a pure and good soul. They're all varying degrees of rear end in a top hat, which is what makes them greatly entertaining to watch, Araki has no issues with having a protagonist that's clearly heavily flawed and sometimes twists those flaws into actual strength, and it works, because Araki is an insanely good writer.

I haven't read part 5 or 6 so I only have a limited impression of Giorno but so far he seems to be a continuation of the "bad boy with a heart of gold" characterization of Josuke and to a lesser extent, Jotaro.

Johnny in part 7 is more of an inversion of this. At first he seems like an innocent goodboy but then you find out about his past and throughout part 7 he's shown as a flawed, imperfect individual. He 's selfish and has a dark streak but it's nuanced enough that he never comes off as an edgelord antihero. He's just human.
