Key members of the Joestar Family
I can tell since I watched those three men who carried the blood of the Joestar Family in their veins back in Morioh. The three of them emanate righteousness from their hearts as if it gave them energy...
—Koichi Hirose, Joining the Gang, Part 6

The Joestar Family (ジョースター家, Jōsutā Ke) is an extensive clan of characters featured prominently in the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure series, of which each of the protagonists of the series is a member. Dating back to English aristocracy, the Joestar Family would become involved in the supernatural, resulting in a rippling impact affecting generations to come.

Summary

The Joestar family has had a rich history and each of its members have had wildly different lives from each others. One of their key features are a star-shaped birthmark above their left shoulder blade.

They began as a noble and well-off family of British society, residing in a luxurious mansion in England thanks to George I's trading business. However, his son, Jonathan, burned down the mansion in an effort to slay the vampirised Dio Brando, and the family has lived elsewhere since then, their homes occupying different countries depending on the generation. The family has also abandoned its roots in nobility with most members having normal jobs such as a realtor or marine biologist.

The Joestar line originates from England, however, its members became more diversified with time, starting with Joseph who had children with both an Italian and Japanese woman. This trend has continued with his descendants, with Joseph's daughter, Holy, marrying a Japanese man and then living in Japan, as well as Jotaro marrying an American woman and going to live in the United States. Thus the Joestar Family are connected to Italy, Japan, and the United States.

The familial archenemy is Dio Brando, his immortality, and worldwide influence leading to the Joestars battling the vampire and his followers for the majority of their recent history. Due to the exceptional circumstances of Dio Brando (later "DIO") stealing Jonathan's body, the Brando family is connected to the Joestars, and several members can be considered to be both children of Jonathan and DIO in a way.

The Joestar family is considerably connected to the supernatural, several of its members meeting with supernatural creatures and combating fantastical threats with varying degrees of willingness. The family's earlier members can count among them a high number of Ripple users, but Joseph was their final representative. Afterwards, each of the main Joestars became Stand users, all blessed with potent Stand abilities.

Although the family's members are largely referred to as the Joestars, the family name itself died out early in the series with Joseph, as he only had two children, a daughter and an illegitimate son. Since then they have had different last names such as "Kujo" and "Cujoh". The high number of illegitimate children in the family also results in names such as "Higashikata" or "Giovanna". The most prominent members of the family throughout the generations have had a tendency to have alliterative names, usually earning them the shared moniker of "JoJo".

Joestar Family (Second Continuity)

In the second continuity introduced in Steel Ball Run, the Joestar family are Americans descended from British nobility who lost their status. However, George Joestar II becomes wealthy from his exceptional horseback riding talent, winning the Triple Crown seven times during the 19th century. His two sons, Nicholas and Johnny, continue the tradition as horse racing prodigies.[1]

JoJolion depicts the family after Johnny marries Rina Higashikata in 1892 and moves to Japan, tying the Joestars to the Higashikata family. As Johnny's family lived in Japan, some of his descendants are primarily Japanese. Joseph Joestar, a Stand user and the grandson of Johnny, went by the nickname "Fumi" and lived in Japan. He eventually moves to America in 1941 and lives there for several years as Lucy Steel's assistant. Joseph has two daughters, Barbara Ann Joestar and Holy Joestar. Holy lives in Japan and marries into the Kira family, having two children. Her son, Yoshikage Kira, ends up going through an equivalent exchange with Josefumi Kujo, creating Josuke, who is adopted into the Higashikata family in 2011.

The JOJOLands features the children of Barbara Ann living in Hawaii, Dragona and Jodio Joestar, the latter of them going on to become extremely rich in the subtropical islands.

The Joestars retain their link with the supernatural, with Johnny becoming a Spin and a Stand user, and his descendants being Stand users as well.

Joestar Family (JORGE JOESTAR)


The information below derives from JORGE JOESTAR which was not written by Araki. As such, it may not be considered canon.

In the light novel JORGE JOESTAR, the 37th universe also has a Joestar family which has a few similarities to the original universe but with divergences. The Joestar family is English, but England does not exist in this universe. A group of Anglo-Saxons living in Maine in the 19th century had declared independence, calling themselves the Kingdom of England. Despite fighting in a war, the American government never officially recognized them.[2]

The Joestars lived on a large farmland while they were in America. They were titled aristocrats, wealthy even by the standards of English citizens.[3]

The group of citizens living in the Kingdom of England eventually collapsed from within, leading to several English families having to scatter across the world due to losing their country. The Joestar family ends up moving to Japan. Including the Joestar family, these English families had to adopt in order to keep thriving, leading to Jonda Joestar adopting Jorge Joestar.[2]
