==Personality==
==Personality==
[[File:George scolding.png|thumb|right|George Joestar I is a stern father]]
George is kind, though somewhat misguided. The most apparent example is when he mistakenly believes [[Dario Brando]] saved his life, though the latter was actually attempting to rob him of his possessions.<ref>Chapter 1: ''[[Chapter 1|Prologue]]''</ref> Even when George understands this to some extent, he shows his generosity by claiming that he willingly gave his ring to Dario and easily gets him out of jail. Nevertheless, George still honors Dario by taking in his child and doesn't notice Dio's wrongdoings. Once he does notice, he accuses Dario for Dio's behavior.
George Joestar I is a man of the upper class, a true British ‘noble’ who raises both of his sons to the highest standard of etiquette and manners expected of their household. He was exceptionally harsh towards Jonathan as a child for his ‘boorish’ attitude and lack of grace compared to Dio.<ref>{{Ch|Chapter 2}} p.8-9.</ref> Despite George’s overbearingly strict nature he loved his sons equally. In his old age George prides both of his boys on their upbringing and academic success.<ref>{{Ch|Chapter 6}} p.14-15.</ref>

While George is disconnected from the pains of the impoverished, he is exceptionally generous and forgiving. This is seen as naïveté by some but George empathizes with Dario Brando’s circumstances and gives away his wife’s ring for Brando to sell. Much later, when Dio stabs him in the back, George blames himself for not raising Dio like Jonathan and asks Jonathan to bury him in the family grave. Speedwagon states that George’s steadfast will, pride and kindness were inherited by Jonathan after his death.<ref>{{Ch|Chapter 12}}</ref>


George hangs the [[Stone Mask]] on a wall in his mansion as a memento to his late wife, [[Mary Joestar|Mary]].<ref>{{Ch|Chapter 3}} p.6.</ref>
George loves his son, but is strict towards him, especially after Dio came along which offered George someone to compare Jonathan with, as he wished to make a gentleman out of him. Although he uses physical punishment and food deprivation to punish Jonathan,<ref>Chapter 2, [[Chapter 2|Dio Brando the Invader Part 1]]</ref> they are more a reflection of his time's customs than his own character. He notably shows his fatherly love through taking a fatal knife stab instead of Jonathan.


==History==
==History==
===Background===
===Background===
In the 1860s, George and his fiancée [[Mary Joestar|Mary]] have a pair of rings made by a famous jeweler for their engagement.<ref name="C12">{{Ch|Chapter 12}} p.9.</ref> The couple have a son named Jonathan Joestar on April 4, 1868.<ref name="jojo6251">''[[JoJo 6251]]''</ref> Shortly after Jonathan's birth, the family goes on a trip where George comes across the [[Stone Mask]] in the possession of an art dealer in London. George takes a liking to it<ref name="C3">{{Ch|Chapter 3}} p.6.</ref> and Mary buys it for him.<ref name="C6">{{Ch|Chapter 6}}</ref>
[[File:DarioSaves.png|thumb|George Joestar mistaking [[Dario Brando]] as a rescuer.|alt=|217.997x217.997px]]


===''Phantom Blood''===
A man of the upper class, George was famous in the trading business, making his family rich and able to live in a luxurious mansion. He later married a girl named {{MN|Mary Joestar|Mary}} and they had a son, [[Jonathan Joestar]].
[[File:DarioSaves.png|thumb|George Joestar mistaking [[Dario Brando]] for a rescuer]]
In 1868, on the way back from their trip, the carriage crashed, and Mary lost her life while George was knocked unconscious. When he woke up, he was met with the face of a passerby named [[Dario Brando]]. Assuming Dario dragged him out of the crash, he promised to repay him for saving his life.<ref>{{Ch|Chapter 1}}</ref> George would later be called up by a London [[Inspector Archer|inspector]] about his wife’s missing ring. It is revealed to George that his savior years ago was arrested for trying to pawn Mary’s ring. Taken aback by Dario, he empathized with his circumstances and informed the inspector that the ring was a gift. Calmly, he hands the ring back to Dario and urged him to build a different life by selling it.<ref>{{Ch|Chapter 12}}</ref>


George hanged up the Stone Mask in his home as a memento to his late wife. For the next twelve years, George would raise his only son, Jonathan. He brought a [[Danny|dog]] named Danny for Jonathan at some point.
George tragically lost his wife Mary in a carriage accident in 1868. When the thieving [[Dario Brando]] arrived at the scene to loot the valuables nearby, George assumed Dario rescued him and felt indebted to him. This proved unwavering even after George learned from the head inspector that Dario was in jail from trying to pawn Mary's wedding ring, pressing no charges and asked Dario to be a good man for his family. Even Dario couldn't understand George's generous nature as he provided him with money for a hotel venture that ultimately failed.<ref>Chapter 1: ''[[Chapter 1|Prologue]]'' p. 17</ref>


[[File:George scolding anime.png|thumb|left|Berating Jonathan for his lack of manners]]
For the next twelve years, George raised his only son Jonathan who grew into a fine youth despite being rough around the edges. He got Jonathan a pet dog, [[Danny]], who saved Jonathan from drowning and became his best friend.
When Dario Brando passes away, George receives a letter from the man asking him to take in his son, Dio, if he was to succumb to a sudden illness. George honors his wishes by allowing Dio to live at the Joestar Mansion as a member of the family. George often chastised Jonathan for failing to match his adoptive brother’s etiquette and intelligence. Unbeknownst to Joestar were Dio’s plans and treatment of Jonathan. The two converse some time after Dio's adoption about the Stone Mask<ref>{{Ch|Chapter 3}}</ref> and later Jonathan’s attachment to Danny<ref>{{Ch|Chapter 4}}</ref>. Soon after, he catches both boys fighting and sends them to their rooms for punishment. Danny is subsequently found trapped in the incinerator and buried. George believes a burglar was responsible for the dog's death, leaving only Jonathan to suspect Dio.<ref>{{Ch|Chapter 5}}</ref>


[[File:GeorgeSacrifice.jpg|thumb|right|George Joestar's death]]
===Phantom Blood===
Seven years later, George is struck ill and remains bedridden. While recovering, he is treated by the mansion's staff and occasionally Dio, who'd discreetly swap his medicine for poison. Jonathan discovers [[Minor Items#Dario Brando.27s Letter|Dario's letter]] and begins to question his intentions. <ref>{{Ch|Chapter 6}}</ref> He travels to [[Ogre Street]] for proof and an antidote. Returning with both, George makes a successful recovery and discovers Dio's scheme. Constables are brought in to apprehend Dio, as well as the poison's merchant, [[Wang Chan]], to expose him. Feeling responsible for his fate, George returns to his rest to avoid watching Dio's arrest. On the steps to his bedroom, he overhears Wang Chan explaining Dio's 'impenetrable luck' and panics. Dio suddenly pulls out a knife in an attempt to stab his brother, but George leaps between the two in time. <ref>{{Ch|Chapter 11}}</ref> George peacefully dies nestled in Jonathan's hold, pleading to blame him for Dio's upbringing.<ref>{{Ch|Chapter 12}}</ref> George's body is later burned away in the fire that destroys the Joestar Mansion.<ref>{{Ch|Chapter 16}}</ref>
[[File:George scolding.png|left|thumb|205.98x205.98px|George scolding [[Jonathan Joestar]].]]
After receiving a letter from a dying Dario, George honors his "debt" by allowing Dario's son [[Dio Brando]] to live at the [[Joestar Mansion]] and accepts him unconditionally as a member of the family. During Dio's stay, George is easily deceived by Dio's superior manners and intelligence, which causes him to berate his own son Jonathan several times.


===Legacy===
After Dio forcefully kisses Jonathan's girlfriend, [[Erina Pendleton]], a furious Jonathan went to the Joestar mansion and fought Dio, proving his fighting abilities to the latter. Jonathan managed to reduce Dio to tears for the first time. Unaware to both Jonathan and Dio, George witnessed them fighting (not noticing the knife Dio planned to stab Jonathan with) and sends them both to their rooms, promising punishments for the both of them after.
According to Speedwagon, George Joestar's spirit was inherited by Jonathan<ref>{{Ch|Chapter 12}}</ref> and his death serves as Jonathan's animus to vanquish Dio's evil.<ref>{{Ch|Chapter 27}} p.18.</ref><ref>{{Ch|Chapter 38}} p.7.</ref>


==Novels==
Later on, Dio told George that Jonathan seems close with Danny, and George told him the story about Danny saving Jonathan's life as a child. Dio then traps Danny in an incinerator, causing the dog to be burned alive. George and the other members of the house don't suspect Dio of the crime, believing it to instead be a burglar. Nethertheless, Jonathan suspected Dio was responsible.

{{Canon}}
====Original Universe====
[[File:Jorge 12-16.jpg|thumb|right|Dio, George, and Jonathan in the 37th universe]]
In the light novel ''JORGE JOESTAR'', [[Erina Pendleton|Erina]] names her [[George Joestar II|son]] after George but spells it in the Spanish style ("Jorge") so she can call him "JoJo".<ref name="JORGE1">{{Ch|JORGE JOESTAR Chapter 1}}</ref> In the past, George used to be friends with the grandfather of [[Steven Motorize|Steven]], [[Kenton Motorize|Kenton]], and [[Darlington Motorize]].<ref name="JORGE7">{{Ch|JORGE JOESTAR Chapter 7}}</ref>


====37th Universe====
[[File:GeorgeSacrifice.jpg|thumb|right|George: "Don't look so sad, JoJo. Where better to die than in the arms of my son?..."|217.997x217.997px]] Eight years later, George is struck ill. Jonathan learns that his father is being poisoned by Dio and travels to [[Ogre Street]] for proof and to find a cure. When cured and learning of Dio's treachery, feeling responsible for doting Dio, George stands by as the constables Jonathan has brought proceed to arrest Dio. At the last moment, as Jonathan goes to Dio to personally handcuff him, George overhears Wang Chan mentioning Dio's luck and worries that the arrestation is going too smoothly.
There is also an iteration of George in the 37th universe. Although he is English, he lives in America because England does not exist in this universe. He is still a wealthy man, owning a large estate in 1881 where he lives with his son [[Jonathan Joestar (37th Universe)|Jonathan]] and adopted son [[Dio Brando (37th Universe)|Dio Brando]]. It is unknown whether the George in this universe dies before his sons, as Jonathan and Dio both die in a train accident when Jonathan attempts to stop Dio from robbing the train.<ref name="JORGE12">{{Ch|JORGE JOESTAR Chapter 12}}</ref>

When Dio attempts to stab Jonathan to use the [[Stone Mask]] on himself, George leaps between the two and shields his son, getting fatally stabbed in the back. George dies nestled in Jonathan's hold, cheering his son up saying that is best for a father to die in the arms of his son. George's body is later burned away from the fire that destroys the Joestar Mansion.

“
The name is Joestar. I'd like to repay you for saving my life. (わたしの名はジョースター。命を救ってくれた礼をしたい)
Watashi no na wa Jōsutā. Inochi o sukutte kureta rei o shitai.
”
—George Joestar to Dario Brando, Chapter 1: Prologue

George Joestar I (ジョージ・ジョースターⅠ世, Jōji Jōsutā Issei) is a secondary ally featured in the first part of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure series, Phantom Blood.

George is a famous British aristocrat and the patriarch of the Joestar Family. He is the husband of Mary Joestar and father of the first protagonist, Jonathan Joestar. After a tragic misunderstanding, he adopts Dio Brando into his family, kick-starting the events of the entire series.

Appearance

George Joestar is a middle-aged man of medium build and height. He has a full set of dark hair with his bangs parted to one side of his forehead. He also has a properly maintained mustache.

George Joestar is typically depicted in a three-piece suit and either a tie or a bow tie. In his old age and while bed-ridden, he dons a fancy robe.

Personality

George Joestar I is a stern father

George Joestar I is a man of the upper class, a true British ‘noble’ who raises both of his sons to the highest standard of etiquette and manners expected of their household. He was exceptionally harsh towards Jonathan as a child for his ‘boorish’ attitude and lack of grace compared to Dio.[3] Despite George’s overbearingly strict nature he loved his sons equally. In his old age George prides both of his boys on their upbringing and academic success.[4]

While George is disconnected from the pains of the impoverished, he is exceptionally generous and forgiving. This is seen as naïveté by some but George empathizes with Dario Brando’s circumstances and gives away his wife’s ring for Brando to sell. Much later, when Dio stabs him in the back, George blames himself for not raising Dio like Jonathan and asks Jonathan to bury him in the family grave. Speedwagon states that George’s steadfast will, pride and kindness were inherited by Jonathan after his death.[5]

George hangs the Stone Mask on a wall in his mansion as a memento to his late wife, Mary.[6]

History

Background

In the 1860s, George and his fiancée Mary have a pair of rings made by a famous jeweler for their engagement.[7] The couple have a son named Jonathan Joestar on April 4, 1868.[8] Shortly after Jonathan's birth, the family goes on a trip where George comes across the Stone Mask in the possession of an art dealer in London. George takes a liking to it[9] and Mary buys it for him.[10]

Phantom Blood

George Joestar mistaking Dario Brando for a rescuer

In 1868, on the way back from their trip, the carriage crashed, and Mary lost her life while George was knocked unconscious. When he woke up, he was met with the face of a passerby named Dario Brando. Assuming Dario dragged him out of the crash, he promised to repay him for saving his life.[11] George would later be called up by a London inspector about his wife’s missing ring. It is revealed to George that his savior years ago was arrested for trying to pawn Mary’s ring. Taken aback by Dario, he empathized with his circumstances and informed the inspector that the ring was a gift. Calmly, he hands the ring back to Dario and urged him to build a different life by selling it.[12]

George hanged up the Stone Mask in his home as a memento to his late wife. For the next twelve years, George would raise his only son, Jonathan. He brought a dog named Danny for Jonathan at some point.

Berating Jonathan for his lack of manners

When Dario Brando passes away, George receives a letter from the man asking him to take in his son, Dio, if he was to succumb to a sudden illness. George honors his wishes by allowing Dio to live at the Joestar Mansion as a member of the family. George often chastised Jonathan for failing to match his adoptive brother’s etiquette and intelligence. Unbeknownst to Joestar were Dio’s plans and treatment of Jonathan. The two converse some time after Dio's adoption about the Stone Mask[13] and later Jonathan’s attachment to Danny[14]. Soon after, he catches both boys fighting and sends them to their rooms for punishment. Danny is subsequently found trapped in the incinerator and buried. George believes a burglar was responsible for the dog's death, leaving only Jonathan to suspect Dio.[15]

George Joestar's death

Seven years later, George is struck ill and remains bedridden. While recovering, he is treated by the mansion's staff and occasionally Dio, who'd discreetly swap his medicine for poison. Jonathan discovers Dario's letter and begins to question his intentions. [16] He travels to Ogre Street for proof and an antidote. Returning with both, George makes a successful recovery and discovers Dio's scheme. Constables are brought in to apprehend Dio, as well as the poison's merchant, Wang Chan, to expose him. Feeling responsible for his fate, George returns to his rest to avoid watching Dio's arrest. On the steps to his bedroom, he overhears Wang Chan explaining Dio's 'impenetrable luck' and panics. Dio suddenly pulls out a knife in an attempt to stab his brother, but George leaps between the two in time. [17] George peacefully dies nestled in Jonathan's hold, pleading to blame him for Dio's upbringing.[18] George's body is later burned away in the fire that destroys the Joestar Mansion.[19]

Legacy

According to Speedwagon, George Joestar's spirit was inherited by Jonathan[20] and his death serves as Jonathan's animus to vanquish Dio's evil.[21][22]

Novels

JORGE JOESTAR

The information below derives from a source not written by Araki. As such, it may or may not be considered canon.

Original Universe

Dio, George, and Jonathan in the 37th universe

In the light novel JORGE JOESTAR, Erina names her son after George but spells it in the Spanish style ("Jorge") so she can call him "JoJo".[23] In the past, George used to be friends with the grandfather of Steven, Kenton, and Darlington Motorize.[24]

37th Universe

There is also an iteration of George in the 37th universe. Although he is English, he lives in America because England does not exist in this universe. He is still a wealthy man, owning a large estate in 1881 where he lives with his son Jonathan and adopted son Dio Brando. It is unknown whether the George in this universe dies before his sons, as Jonathan and Dio both die in a train accident when Jonathan attempts to stop Dio from robbing the train.[25]
