His outfit consists of a light short-sleeved shirt under dark hooded overalls with a winged heart emblem at the center of the chest. The emblem is marked by an hourglass symbol with both triangles split into a dark and a bright half, and the shirt has been shown to have the word "NOVEMBER" written on the front collar. The overalls bears a strong resemblance to a life preserver, having a belt fastened around the chest under the heart emblem, sporting rigid light-colored shoulder pads, and exposing most of Jodio's back. The overalls are also fastened to the shirt by two buttons at the back of the waist. The overalls' pantlegs are split under the knee, giving them a similar appearance to bell-bottoms, both also studded in a vertical column besides the slit.

History

“
I'm becoming rich no matter what it takes! (オレが必ず手にするね)
Ore ga kanarazu te ni suru ne!
”
—Jodio Joestar, The JOJOLands Chapter 1: Departure

Jodio Joestar (ジョディオ・ジョースター, Jodio Jōsutā) is the main protagonist of the ninth part of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure series, The JOJOLands, and the ninth JoJo of the series.

Jodio is a small-time gangster living in Honolulu, Hawaii, with his older brother Dragona and his mother Barbara Ann Joestar. He is a Stand user who wields November Rain, allowing him to create localized drops of rain that can crush his opponents.

Appearance

Jodio is a 15-year-old boy. He has light skin and light-colored hair with long jagged bangs partially obscuring both of his eyes and an undercut at the back. His hair is asymmetrical, as the right side is braided with a star-shaped ornamental hair clip attached, and the left side is cut just below his eye. He wears a large "JO" shaped earring that hangs from his left ear. As a descendant of the Joestar family, Jodio has the Star Birthmark on his left shoulder.[4]

His outfit consists of a light short-sleeved shirt under dark hooded overalls with a winged heart emblem at the center of the chest. The emblem is marked by an hourglass symbol with both triangles split into a dark and a bright half, and the shirt has been shown to have the word "NOVEMBER" written on the front collar. The overalls bears a strong resemblance to a life preserver, having a belt fastened around the chest under the heart emblem, sporting rigid light-colored shoulder pads, and exposing most of Jodio's back. The overalls are also fastened to the shirt by two buttons at the back of the waist. The overalls' pantlegs are split under the knee, giving them a similar appearance to bell-bottoms, both also studded in a vertical column besides the slit.

For accessories, Jodio wears assorted fingerless gloves, the main pair consisting of simple wristbands with a triangular flap over the back of the hand. He also has armbands shaped like two triangles wrapped around each bicep. Jodio wears dark plain dress shoes.

As an eleven year old, Jodio wore almost the exact same style of clothing. Rather than the heart emblem, his hoodie had "JO" written in large centered letters with the top line of the J being elongated.[5]

Personality

Jodio threatening police officers

Jodio Joestar is an ambitious hoodlum living a life of petty crime in Hawaii, who was diagnosed with having antisocial personality disorder in his school's psychological test.[6] Despite his aversion to friendship,[7][8] Jodio is popular at his school[9] and grows to like Meryl Mei Qi's crew,[10][11][12] but this relationship is based on "money more than friendship." Unlike previous series protagonists, Jodio has little to no ethical qualms, and author Hirohiko Araki describes him as a "scumbag."[13]

Jodio values his family above all and becomes erratic if they're ever threatened or mocked.[14] When an eleven-year-old Jodio witnessed a band of classmates harassing Dragona, he "handled" the problem by igniting an entire school bus full of students to hurt them. Jodio felt no guilt for starting the fire, but the absurdity of his family's later dissolution perplexed him. The event was a formative moment in his relationship with Dragona and their adolescence.[5] Soon after, they began working as gofers to financially support and protect their mother.[15] He sometimes whispers his thoughts to Dragona for Dragona to speak on his behalf.[5][16]

Jodio's sole aspiration is wealth,[17] and contrary to his mother's hopes, he performs the worst in his class.[5] Ever since he started out as a gofer,[18] Jodio gave his "work" professional diligence and garnered enough notoriety to earn recognition in Hawaii.[18] An upbringing in poverty influenced his outlook,[13] so far as inspiring his belief in "mechanisms".[19] "Mechanisms" are a set of abstract rules that dictate the distribution of power and wealth in society. For example, Jodio cultivates respect, admiration, and protection through his popularity, but a bullied classmate won't.[20] According to Lulu, even though Jodio looks so young, he gives off the impression of being in charge.[21]

Jodio loves Rohan Kishibe's work, "Pink Dark Boy",[22] enjoys listening to music, and plays with a handheld gaming console to kill time.[23][24] Jodio is bad at remembering three-letter acronyms.[25]

    This is the story of me getting filthy rich. Sound like I'm exaggerating? Do I sound immodest and conceited to you? Becoming filthy rich means being able to earn lots of money, but there's something far more important than that — yup, 'mechanisms'. (これはオレが大富豪になっていく物語。大富豪とは大げさに聞こえるだろうか？オレの語り口に謙虚さが無くうぬぼれているように聞こえるだろうか……？大富豪というのはつまり―― 大金を稼げるという事もあるがそれよりも全然重要な事柄―― ――やっぱり「仕組み(メカニズム)」)

    The pinnacle of mechanisms, that's something I can't see yet. But those mechanisms will come to appear before us as forms and shapes. (「仕組み(メカニズム)」の頂点だ。今はまだ目には見えない。だがオレたちの目の前にその「仕組み(メカニズム)」が「姿・形」として現れて来るんだ……)

    It's best not to say anything unnecessary. Besides, what does it matter? Those who can't see it never will. (余計な事は言わない方がいい。どうせ言ってみたところで… 見えないヤツはいつまでも見ない)

    Could someone like me ever be happy? I mean, I think I probably could. If I just work for it... But the reality of the world is that there are hidden, unfair places where I'll meet scum like those guys. It makes me wanna lose my mind.

    I'm a fan of yours, sensei. I read your stuff all the time. It really speaks to me in a way, y'know. Because I respect you so much I sorta get it. Like, the approach... or your stance towards manga. Or, like, philosophy? Like something that came down from the heavens... I understand. That four circles short work of yours, sensei, that was so good! (先生の作品いつも好きで拝見してるから。なんかこういう感じで「わかるんですよ」。尊敬してるからピンと来るっていうんですか。「発想」っていうのか…漫画に対する「姿勢」っていうか。哲学？天から降りてくる様に何かさあ～…わかるんですよ… 先生の「４つの円」の短編の話なんて凄く良かったなあ～～)

    I know the whole thing is absurd, but nobody can't fight the movement of money. Not a single person, not so long as desires exists. And you're scared because you understand that, isn't that right?
