Personalidade
"Aquele menino... Eu tomarei o lugar de meu pai que botou seu orgulho na linhagem da família. Esse trabalho é o meu dever... e iso nunca mudará..."

- Gyro Zeppeli,

Gyro é um executor convencido e extravagante marcado pela crueldade da vida, que participa da corrida para salvar.

Gyro aparenta ser um competidor agressivo na corrida Steel Ball Run. Diferente dos outros competidores, Gyro tenta conquistar seu primeiro lugar acima de tudo, correndo na frente de todos e então se defendendo de qualquer um que o desafie. Ele também tem a tendência de tomar atalhos perigosos. Gyro é um homem grosso, ridicularizando a vasta maioria daqueles que ele encontra com insultos e comentários de escárnio. Até com seu amigo mais próximo, Gyro não mede suas palavras e às vezes discute com ele. Ademais, Johnny apenas marcou Gyro através de sua teimosia persistente e do contrário o desprezava durante seu encontro incial. A única pessoa pela qual Gyro teve qualquer grau de respeito foi pelo seu pai severo. A sobreconfiança de Gyro se extende às suas batalhas, durante as quais Gyro é propenso a zombar de seus oponentes de alguma forma ou dizer algo pretensioso. Por exemplo, ele abertamente zombou do chapéu "ridículo" de.

Gyro é particularmente orgulhoso de seu domínio do Spin, uma técnica de família envolvendo a rotação e lance de bolas de aço para vários efeitos e enaltece o como o ápice da habilidade humana, esse orgulho é, à certo grau, justificado quando o Spin é capaz de derrotar o. Entretanto, como um professor ele pareceu um tanto relutante, apenas ensinando os básicos do Spin ao Johnny e introduzindo a ele o Retângulo Dourado apenas quando eles estavam sendo ameaçados por um novo inimigo.

Como um executor e um homem do contrário confrontativo, Gyro não se importa de usar violência até mesmo de modo letal. Entretanto Gyro não teve a mesma falta de escrúpulos que Johnny e inicialmente não desejou matar seus inimigos a menos que ele julgasse necessário. Notavelmente, Gyro tentou encorajar um ladrão a lutar contra ele e usou sua para fazer com que ele atirasse em si mesmo caso ele levantasse a arma, em vez de diretamente matá-lo.

Gyro de qualquer jeito possui um lado altruísta, e gosta de ajudar qualquer um que precise de sua assistência, mais notavelmente o paraplégico Johnny a quem ele ensinou a técnica do Spin e ajudou adquirir as, ou Marco, um menino indefeso cuja sentença de morte levou Gyro até a corrida Steel Ball Run. Esse lado de Gyro iria muitas vezes entrar em conflito com a autoridade de Gregorio Zeppeli, que desaprovava qualquer demonstração de sentimentalidade na vida e no final o desafiou ao viajar até os Estados Unidos.

Johnny originalmente disse a Gyro que ele não possuía a vontade e determinação necessária para cumprir objetivos. O jóquei argumentou que por causa de Gyro ter herdado tudo que ele tinha de um homem de alta classe e o herdeiro da técnica de Spin da família, ele não tinha o tipo de fome egoísta nascida de sofrimento que era crucial na corrida. Verdadeiro a isso, Gyro Zeppeli inicialmente entrou na corrida por uma preocupação altruísta por Maco, e primariamente dependeu de seus truques para prevalecer na corrida. Durante sua batalha contra ele dobrou suas motivações originais para um objetivo mais pessoal, o caminho para ver por si mesmo se Marco merecia ser executado e de quem exatamente era o dono do Cadáver. Após isso, Gyro se tornou um pouco menos arrogante, e focou seriamente em suas batalhas. Em seu cavalgamento, Gyro mudou para um estilo mais pessoal, instintivamente escolhendo sua própria rota em vez do "caminho mais curto", permitindo que ele fosse superior a Diego na corrida.

Out of combat, Gyro also possesses an eccentric personality and is particularly bombastic. Gyro has a penchant for gags, involving puns or an inexplicable brand of humor from bad puns to skits defying all logic, frequently telling such jokes to Johnny in the spur of the moment and created a song about Mozzarella cheese, singing it to Johnny and being happy that he appreciated it. He also has a fondness for dramatic gestures and quotes, saying that the Goddess of Victory was riding with him and that she would retract her favor if he ever let another woman ride with him. Unlike Johnny, Gyro frequently grins, exposing his metal teeth in the process. The mere fact that he engraved his teeth with the message "Go! Go! Zeppeli" already exposes his ostentatious nature. Humorously, Gyro also keeps a pink teddy bear with him, being fond of it enough to keep it even during the Steel Ball Run, although he leaves it at one point. However, mimicking his own father, Gyro can be stern and dignified when he talks about the Zeppeli Spin technique.

Heavily influenced by Gregorio's teachings about the uncertainties in life - using a "tennis ball over the net" metaphor - and the Steel Ball's power being nothing short of miraculous, Gyro has a somewhat optimistic outlook on life and is convinced that he can overcome setbacks, even if they'd need a miracle to overcome, as long as he follows a virtuous path. Nonetheless, following the "tennis ball over the net" belief, Gyro is aware that failure is just as likely. This ideology is repeatedly somehow confirmed with numerous coincidences and miracles helping him throughout his journey and alternatively working against him, culminating in Marco being freed without his intervention but dying of a cold later.

Gyro é mulherengo, um flashback narrando um caso com uma paciente e ele também é visto flertando com mulheres bonitas. Pelo outro lado, a primeira vez que Gyro e Johnny conheceram Lucy, ele recusa deixar ela andar com ele e alega que "nenhuma mulher (irá) andar no meu cavalo". Ele mais tarde explica que a "Deusa da Vitória" ficaria com ciúme se ele deixasse "outra mulher" andar com ele.

Gyro tem algumas manias. Por exemplo, ele tem sua risada assinatura "Nyo-ho-ho!" e ele normalmente grita "ORA!" quando ele lança uma Bola de Aço em combate, reminescente dos gritos de Stand dos Stands dos Joestars antigos. Eventualmente, após a morte de Gyro, Johnny adota o grito de batalha de Gyro como o próprio do.

Spin


The Zeppeli family's Spin technique, usually applied with special Steel Balls, is a versatile skill Gyro has trained in since his youth. Gyro equips himself with two Steel Balls as a means of self-defense, attack, and general strategic advantage.

Throwing his Steel Balls with the Spin, Gyro may create a variety of impressive trajectories, able even to have them return directly to him, mainly after successful contact with his target.

On impact with flesh, spiral ripples often appear. Gyro may apply a wide range of effects to human or animal targets, including muscular, nerve, and bone manipulation, and the forceful wringing of flesh to drain water.

Gyro explains that although used by his family for execution, the Spin was not developed for destructive ends, and is in many ways equally suitable in medical treatment.

The Spin may be viewed as the Steel Ball Run counterpart to the Ripple featured primarily in Phantom Blood and Battle Tendency.

Scan
The tentatively named Scan (スキャン) is an ability that Gyro temporarily awakens to after possessing the Corpse's right eye. The word TURBŌ is inscribed on Gyro's iris, behind it a diagonally oriented cross; with a emerging from the bottom-outside of his eye, on his cheek, to begin with. A single eye appears within each of Gyro's active Steel Balls, staring outwards, also marked on the iris.

When Scan is active, the ability places eyes representing those of the Corpse in each of Gyro's active Steel Balls. These enhance Gyro's aptitude for the Spin, and his vision as surrogate eyes (enabling him to see remotely when Hot Pants blinds him with Cream Starter); as well as allowing him to see through people's bodies as though by X-ray, permitting him to calculate for better targeting.

Gyro relinquishes this ability when he gives his eye to Lucy Steel.

Cadáver Santo
The complete guardian of the Corpse's eyes appears as a largely insentient, robotic humanoid figure. When Gyro departs this figure, it is divided, missing its left arm, leg, upper "eye" and the left plate of the two originally framing its head. A similar figure is seen once more when Gyro uses Scan, growing from his Steel Ball, in his battle against Ringo Roadagain.

Stand
Ball Breaker manifests when Gyro finally achieves the "Golden Spin". The stand is a visualization of Spin energy unleashed from Gyro's steel balls, the sheer power of the technique manifesting itself into the form of a Stand. Ball Breaker embodies a vast force capable of bypassing dimensional barriers.

Habilidades de Cavalgação
Gyro is an experienced and capable equestrian, competent enough to ride across many types of terrain and be a serious competitor in the Steel Ball Run race. His ability as a rider reached a new level after he entered a "real man's world" in his fight against Ringo Roadagain and he became able to instinctively choose the optimal path for his horse, an ability that seems on par with Diego Brando's own ability. His riding style can be summed up as aggressive; Gyro seeks to remain at the first place constantly, and takes dangerous shortcuts when he deems it necessary. When another rider challenges him, Gyro will actively try to get rid of him. His beloved horse is named Valkyrie. Gyro is also knowledgeable about horses, particularly Valkyrie, whose abilities and limits he can gauge at any moment.

Família

 * Gregorio Zeppeli: As Gyro's father, he was the only person to ever command respect and obedience to him. Their relationship was probably cold due to Gregorio wishing to throw away sentimentality from his life, thus never had a compliment for his son, nor did he give him gifts and send him letters. However Gregorio was still Gyro's Spin teacher and direct superior as surgeon and executioner, thus has authority over him, although Gyro still disobeyed him behind his back.

Amigos

 * Johnny Joestar: Gyro and Johnny are friends and partners in the Steel Ball Run and also master and apprentice in the art of the Spin. At first Johnny's determination got Gyro's interest, causing him to help him figuring out how to mount his Slow Dancer and start the race. After the first stage, Johnny wins the respect of Gyro, thus Gyro decides to teach him the Spin and they become partners for the rest of the race. As the stages progress their friendship grows. Despite their opposing personalities, causing regular clashes as to how to take on a difficult situation, Gyro and Johnny ultimately get along well and share many moments of friendship, culminating in them telling each personal secrets. Gyro notably likes to jest with Johnny and tells him bad jokes or miscellaneous songs that Johnny frequently pretends to appreciate. Due to their regular battles, Gyro and Johnny fight well together, and see each other as valuable allies. Their friendship is such that any one is ready to put himself in danger for the other, and Johnny notably abandoned his Corpse Parts to save Gyro's life, and has cried multiple times for him. When Gyro died, Johnny was completely devastated and Valentine exploited that bond to promise Johnny that another Gyro would walk this universe. Gyro's ghost salutes Johnny one last time and the latter would bring back his corpse to the Zeppeli family. Gyro's continuous support helped Johnny get out of his depression and enabled him to begin anew.
 * Lucy Steel: Gyro and Lucy became allies, but Gyro had a cold attitude toward her, refusing her request of helping her and her husband and instead suggesting that she risked her life trying to steal the Heart from Valentine. Gyro nonetheless acknowledged her bravery and resourcefulness and entrusted the Right Eye with her, later asking Wekapipo to save her from Valentine.
 * Wekapipo: Despite meeting in the Steel Ball Run race as long-standing enemies, Gyro and Wekapipo have a certain respect of each other's ability as both are proficient Spin users. Gyro revealed to Wekapipo that his sister was alive and well, having saved her life once. This revelation earned Gyro Wekapipo's help during the search for the Corpse Parts.
 * Mountain Tim: Gyro only saw Tim as a rival in the Steel Ball Run race, deriding his hat when he first saw Tim. However, both come to see as allies during the fights against the Boomboom Family and Oyecomova.

Rivais

 * Diego Brando: Gyro and Diego are bitter rivals, as both repeatedly tried to outdo each other in the Steel Ball Run. Gyro thinks of Diego as the greatest threat for his goal of finishing first in the race and never ceases to antagonize or insult him. Diego won't hesitate to kill Gyro, but Gyro's moral code stops him from doing the same, and he only wishes to beat him up.
 * Hot Pants: As one of the competitors in the Steel Ball Run race and a rival in the search for the Saint Corpse Parts, Gyro views Hot Pants poorly. Their first meeting consisted of Hot Pants attacking Gyro for wrong reasons, and Gyro never let up his antagonistic behavior after that, regularly insulting the horse rider and once stealing her food. Later on, Gyro remains in the dark about Hot Pants' true identity, while Johnny was able to forge a more understanding and sympathetic relationship.
 * Sandman: Gyro and Sandman are rivals in the Steel Ball Run race, but initially act friendly with each other. Sandman bore no ill will against Gyro and repaid being made winner of the first stage in Gyro's stead with critical information during the fourth stage. However, the next time they meet, Sandman now worked with Valentine and tried to force Gyro and Johnny to give their Corpse Parts, going as far as trying to kill them. Nonetheless, Sandman was merely indifferent to what he saw as the struggle between white men.
 * Pocoloco: Gyro thinks of Pocoloco as a dangerous rival and mistakes the latter's luck as talent, while Pocoloco sees Gyro as a mere stepping stone in the race.

Inimigos

 * Boomboom Family: Gyro was initially cold and cautious to Andre Boomboom, and he was later proven right to act in such a way as Andre, along with his brother and father, attacked. Gyro thinks the whole family as idiots, though holds regard for their dangerous Stand abilities.
 * Oyecomova: Oyecomova was an Italian assassin who attempted kill Gyro, Tim and Johnny, only to be defeated by their respective Stand powers.
 * Ringo Roadagain: Ringo and Gyro were mortal enemies during their encounter. Ringo looked down on Gyro for being a "follower" but was impressed by his sudden growth, acknowledging his will during his last moments. Gyro returned the animosity and begrudging respect for the gunman.
 * Funny Valentine: Valentine was Gyro's enemy in the search to obtain the Corpse Parts.

Curiosidades

 * Araki personally liked the Jonathan-Zeppeli relationship from Phantom Blood and wanted to retell it again for a longer coming-of-age story. He chose to make Johnny and Gyro around the same age so they could be less formal and more friendly than their original counterparts. Gyro's random jokes and Johnny's trivial use of his spinning nails were included to reflect this concept.
 * Gyro was able to see Stands before he achieved one of his own. He is the first and so far only Zeppeli to have a Stand.
 * In the Italian edition of SBR, Gyro's name is written as "J.Lo", in a reference to American-Latino singer Jennifer Lopez. This is also a slight pun on the fact that the pronunciations of "Gyro" and "J.Lo" in Japanese are almost identical.
 * In the French edition of SBR, Gyro's name is written as "Jayro".
 * Giro means "Rotation/Spin" in Italian, Portuguese and Spanish.
 * Gyro is currently the only Zeppeli killed by the main villain.
 * Although, in the Phantom Blood film, Will Zeppeli's death is changed and he is instead killed similarly to Dire by Dio.
 * Gyro sometimes uses the words "Ora" and "Yare Yare Daze", similar to Jotaro Kujo.
