Josuke's Savior (仗助の恩人, Jōsuke no Onjin) is a mysterious teenage high school student who helps a young Josuke Higashikata and his mother Tomoko get to the hospital by pushing their car when it is stuck in a blizzard.
Josuke catches a glimpse of the boy and aspires to become a hero like him. He imitates the boy's hairstyle and doesn't forgive anyone who would insult it, as he would feel like they were insulting his hero.
Appearance
The boy has a pompadour hairstyle and a delinquent's school uniform. Below his school jacket, he wears a sweater with long sleeves.
Personality
Josuke's savior is an empathetic and perceptive individual. Although it was a dark night, the boy could tell that Josuke was sick in the back of Tomoko's car. He voluntarily helps them move their car out of the snow despite being in a rough state with several fresh bruises and open cuts on his face. He also sacrifices his school jacket, which is considered his badge of honor, underneath the car's tires without any hesitation.[1]
History
Background
When Josuke was 4, he came down with a strong fever resulting from DIO activating his Stand, causing the Stands in the Joestar family to activate as well. Just like his half-sister Holy Kujo, his Stand worked against him giving him the same fever as Holy. His mother tried to drive him to the hospital but the car's tires lodged themselves in the snow during a blizzard. Suddenly, this young man wearing a school uniform helped Josuke and his mother by placing his jacket under the car's wheel and pushing it over the snow. The student then took his jacket and walked away never to be seen again. Josuke took a glance at him and saw only his hair, and since then has replicated his hairstyle as homage.
