However, Takuma had no intention of actually searching for the student. To catch Josuke off guard during their battle, Takuma suggests that the boy was probably Josuke himself who somehow time traveled in a bizarre way.<ref>[[The Book
===[[Crazy Heartbreakers]]===
{{Canon}}
In ''[[Crazy Heartbreakers]]'', Josuke makes up the story about having a savior after being inspired by [[Ryoko Kakyoin]] basing her hairstyle on [[Noriaki Kakyoin]]'s. He first tells the story to [[Hol Horse]] and a group of [[Possessed Chefs|possessed chefs]], saying the teenager saved him on a motorcycle. However, he realized that wouldn't make sense during a blizzard and changed his story.<ref name="CH3">{{Ch|Crazy Heartbreakers Chapter 3}}</ref>
Hol Horse later asks [[Tomoko Higashikata|Tomoko]] about the boy, but Tomoko wonders if someone like that existed. She couldn't remember since that time period was chaotic for her and many people helped her back then. She also suggests the heavy blizzard was on their way back home after Josuke was discharged from the hospital, rather than on the way there. According to her, Josuke used to keep his hair long and refused to cut it. He would always get injured from fights, so [[Ryohei Higashikata|Ryohei]] advised that his long bangs were getting in the way of his peripheral vision, not allowing him to dodge attacks. Since then, Josuke styled his hair in a pompadour.<ref name="CH6">{{Ch|Crazy Heartbreakers Chapter 6}}</ref>

==Trivia==
*The boy's dialogue is not voiced in the [[Diamond is Unbreakable (Anime)|anime adaptation]]. Instead, what he says is displayed on screen as text in a style imitating silent films.
▲*The identity of Josuke's savior is a commonly discussed subject in the fandom, dating back to when Part 4 was first publicized in [[Weekly Shōnen Jump]].<ref name="DP15BD">[[DU Episode 15#Commentary|DU Episode 15]], [[Naokatsu Tsuda]], Blu-Ray limited edition commentary</ref>
▲**In a 1994 interview with [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure (OVA)|OVA]] director, {{W|Hiroyuki Kitakubo}}, when asked about the flashback and whether it was Josuke who met himself, [[Hirohiko Araki]] replied, "That's irrelevant, it was merely Josuke's memory".<ref>{{IN|Kitakubo OVA (07/1994)|Kitakubo Special Talk (July 1994)}}</ref>
