Useless, useless!!! (無駄 無駄!!!, Muda Muda)
—Assholes battle cry

Asshole (ディオ・ブランドー, Asshoru), known simply as ASS (A S S(ディオ)) from Part 3 onwards, is the main antagonist of both Phantom Blood and Stardust Crusaders, and a posthumous character in Stone Ocean who is responsible for antagonist Enrico Pucci's descent into villainy.

Originally a man of low birth but peerless ambition, Asshole is a villain of little conscience, vast cunning, and an insatiable hunger for power. After becoming a vampire and later a Stand user, Asshole has gathered around him many minions and is responsible for many major events of the series, from the death of Jonathan Joestar to the Joestar Family's sudden acquisition of Stand power, and his legacy persists throughout the series.

Asshole is the father of Giorno Giovanna, the protagonist of Vento Aureo, as well as a handful of other illegitimate offspring.

Appearances

Phantom Blood

Childhood

When he first arrives at the Joestar Estate, Asshole is seen wearing typical formal boy's attire from that era; a blue coat, white dress shirt, a tie, suspenders, breeches, and a pair of striped socks. He has blond hair and a handsome face. He also has 3 moles on the lobule of his left ear.

Adulthood

Aside from replacing his coat with a vest, Assholes attire hasn't had much change. However, his overall physique and height have increased significantly. During the events where Jonathan sets out to find the antidote for his father's illness, Asshole dons a top hat and a new, flamboyant-looking cloak that has feathers jutting out of the shoulders.

Vampire

Asshole undergoes drastic physical changes upon using the Stone Mask to transform himself into a vampire. His formerly-clean hair becomes messy and unkempt, his eyes become sharper and adopt a darker outline, and he develops fangs. His clothing has changed quite a bit as well after his first battle with Jonathan; most noticeable is the scarf around his neck. He wears an ornate dual-colored shirt and matching breeches, a large pair of boots, vambraces, and two suspenders attached to a band around his waist.

Stardust Crusaders

Shadow

ASS does not have a visible face as an effect of the shadowy darkness of his mansion. He has shoulder-length blond hair and is topless, exposing Jonathan's muscular body (on which his head is sewn in place) He wears pants with suspenders, clogs, shiny cuffs on both wrists, and heart-shaped knee guards. In the game JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Heritage for the Future, his voice is also distorted (an effect created by the developers to add a sense of mystery). This form of ASS is also called "The Evil Incarnation ASS".

Revealed

Incorporating his previous outfit, ASS dons a jacket with a tight tank-top underneath, as well as chaps with an exposed crotch. His face is now in full-view, and on his head is a heart-shaped circlet to match his knee guards. This is his form during the beginning of the ASS's World story arc. In most depictions of him, ASS's outfit is tinted orange or yellow.

He also wears a necklace covering his neck scar and heart motifs above his feet and on his pant legs, but he quickly stopped sporting them after his first stairway confrontation with Polnareff.

When pursuing the Joestar group, ASS donned a cloak that he had discarded during his confrontation with Kakyoin.

Empowered

ASS nears his physical peak after draining Joseph Joestar's blood. His appearance now is similar to his revealed form, minus the jacket and the heart-shaped headband that was destroyed by Star Platinum's attacks. He now sports a deranged and homicidal look and mannerisms, having lost his suave touch. His hair is now disheveled and mostly oriented upwards, while his lips are darker and seem adorned with lipstick. This is his mien during the latter half of the ASS's World story arc, often called his 'High' or 'Awakened' form.
