Джонни Джостар (ジョニィ・ジョースター, Joni Jōsutā), при рождении Джонатан Джостар (ジョナサン・ジョースター Jonasan Jōsutā), является протагонистом седьмой части серии JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Steel Ball Run и седьмым ДжоДжо в серии. Он также появляется как второстепенный персонаж в JoJolion.
Бывший вундеркинд конной езды, который стал инвалидом, Джонни присоединяется к SBR, чтобы узнать секрет Стального ШараДжайро Цеппели, так как это единственная вещь, способная исцелить его ноги. По ходу гонки Джонни становится пользователем Спина и Стенда, когда он пробуждает Tusk.
Джонни - молодой человек невысокого роста и тонкого или среднего телосложения. У него светлые глаза и волосы длиной до плеч, которые закручиваются вверх.
Джонни всегда носит вязаную шапку, на которой напечатано множество маленьких пятиконечных звёзд. Его волосы высовываются из неё по обеим сторонам верха, приобретая форму коротких рогов. Спереди свисает подкова, обрамленная изображением тёмного силуэта профиля взрослой головы лошади.
Джонни носит штаны, похожие на брюки со звездочками, и обувь с выступами. Обычно он надевает светлый топ с капюшоном и короткими рукавами; на нём напечатаны толстые линии в виде ориентировочной обвязки (позже - с заплатками в виде сердец, украшающих оба плеча). Из-под задней стенки воротника выходит длинное перо (с одним чёрным пятном на кончике); на запястье надеваются манжеты со звёздочками и полосками.
Во время флешбека в SBR Chapter 42 Джонни носит голубой топ с длинными рукавами и звёздочками, светло-голубое пальто, завязанное вокруг талии, а также светло-коричневые брюки и синие сапоги.
В холодную погоду Джонни носит верх с более длинными рукавами аналогичной конструкции. Его воротник очерчен мехом, и он держит несколько перьев на спине.
Как инвалид, перед началом гонки его видят в инвалидном кресле; но во время гонки его обычно сажают на лошадь, Слоу Дэнсер.
В ходе серии, Джонни постепенно переходит в более реалистичный вид, со слегка волнистыми волосами и немного более полным телосложением.

Личность
“
Я хочу достать этот труп, несмотря ни на что! Меня не волнует ни жизнь, ни смерть, ни то, кто справедлив, а кто зол! Мне даже плевать на то, что труп святой или что-то в этом роде!!! Я всё ещё решителен! Я хочу подняться с нуля! Если я смогу достать труп, я смогу вернуть свой отрицательный результат к нулю!
Джонни Джостар - депрессивный экс-жокей, который цепляется за свою надежду вернуть использование ног через вращение, а затем через части тела на протяжении всего Steel Ball Run.
Джонни представляется как инвалид, чья карьера была разрушена, когда в него выстрелил в позвоночник прохожий. [1] После того, как Джонни стал свидетелем того, как Стальной Шар и Спин Джайро позволили ему встать на мгновение, он полон решимости следовать за ним и заставить его учить Спину,[2] а затем, после обнаружения Частей Трупа, заставляющих его ноги двигаться, он решил заполучить их.
Тёмная решимость.
Джонни упорно следует своим намерениям следовать за Джайро, а затем выслеживать Труп. Не обращая внимания на риск или последствия, Джонни фокусируется на своей цели и ставит её выше всего остального. Несколько раз Джонни получал тяжёлые раны, чтобы достичь своей цели, в частности, пытался сесть в первый раз на свою лошадь Слоу Дэнсер, от которой у него было много синяков и заноз в ногах; [3], несмотря на его неоднократные неудачи, его решимость участвовать в гонке не ослабевала. Наоборот, Джонни не испытывает никаких сомнений в том, что он будет проявлять насилие или убивать своих оппонентов, чтобы заполучить Части Трупа. Джайро Цеппели упомянул, что у Джонни была "тёмная решимость" в глазах, указывающая на безжалостность, которая сделала бы Джонни способным хладнокровно убивать. [4] Хотя аморальный эгоизм всё ещё распространяется на интересы его близких и преследует его на протяжении всей его жизни, что проявилось спустя годы после Steel Ball Run, как, например, когда его жена Рина была поражена каменной болезнью, Джонни украл Труп, чтобы перенести болезнь от неё, не заботясь о том, кто получит её и пострадает вместо неё. [5] Однако Джонни не совсем аморален, например, возражает против вовлечения беззащитной Люси Стил в их борьбу за Труп[6] и, в конечном счёте, принимает каменную болезнь за себя, чтобы спасти своего сына.[7].
В шоке, когда его отец верит, что Бог забрал не того сына.
Во время гонки Steel Ball Run Джонни был обременён депрессией и последующим отсутствием уверенности. Примечательно, что Джонни называл себя бесполезным человеком, мрачный взгляд на жизнь проистекал из его юности. В детстве Джонни был робким, но добрым ребёнком, приютившим дикую мышь и назвавшим её Дэнни. Хотя он и боялся своего сурового отца Джорджа Джостара, он старался оправдать его ожидания. Джонни боготворил своего старшего брата Николаса, но когда он умер, упав с лошади, которая, казалось бы, была напугана Дэнни, Джонни стал виноватым, считая, что смерть его брата была его собственной виной, и что он должен был умереть вместо него. Затем на протяжении многих лет он верил, что сама судьба мстит ему за его преступление и что каждое несчастье, которое он получал, на самом деле заслуживает.[8] Это привело его к одержимости благословением Трупа, которое сбросило бы его карму в нейтральное состояние "ноль" в отличие от "негативного" состояния его проклятия. Это также объясняет безудержную неуверенность Джонни и почти постоянные приступы паники [9][10], поскольку он думал, что судьба в любой момент может лишить его надежды на обретение Трупа. Когда отец Джонни отрёкся от него, Джонни стал замкнутым, создав фасад тщеславия, чтобы скрыть печаль, вызванную этим отторжением.[8]
Перспектива Джонни значительно улучшилась после встречи с Джайро Цеппели. Встретив кого-то, кто дал ему надежду и был искренне добр к нему, Джонни почувствовал благодарность[11] за встречу с итальянским палачом и дорожил этими отношениями, в какой-то момент, будучи готовым отказаться от Трупа, он должен был спасти своего друга.[12] Джайро неоднократно бил Джонни из-за его неуверенности в себе и помогал ему получить Труп, давая ему уверенность и оптимизм в жизни.
As reflected in the multiple ACTs of his Stand Tusk, the improvement was gradual, the key steps of his progress being Johnny discovering the Corpse (ACT 1),[13] then standing up for himself against Soundman (ACT 2),[14] symbolically cleansing himself of his guilts against Axl Ro and being blessed by Jesus-Christ's apparition (ACT 3)[15] and finally acquiring the Corpse and regaining the use of his legs (ACT 4).[16] Although Gyro died, Johnny kept a good memory of everything that happened. If during the race, Johnny was uncaring of everyone else save himself and Gyro, only maintaining a polite but cold demeanour at best toward the people he met, Gyro's influence made Johnny slightly more friendly toward people, culminating in his marriage with Rina Higashikata.[17]
In JoJolion, a flashback shows that Johnny maintained that happiness during his life with Rina.
Author's comments
Araki personally liked the Jonathan–Zeppeli relationship from Phantom Blood and wanted to retell it again for a longer coming-of-age story.
He chose to make Johnny and Gyro around the same age so they could be less formal and more friendly than their original counterparts similar to the Joseph-Caesar relationship from Battle Tendency. Gyro's random jokes and Johnny's use of his spinning nails to accomplish trivial tasks were included to reflect this concept.[18]
Johnny first seeks Gyro Zeppeli's tutelage in the ways of the Spin in order to regain the use of his legs. Most often, Johnny channels the Spin by the use of his Stand, Tusk; developed first with the power of the Corpse's left hand, and further with Gyro's help. Its form varies, depending on the sort or style of Spin Johnny chooses to employ.
ACT1 is awakened in the Devil's Palm when the corpse part combines itself with Johnny's left hand, manifesting his Stand with the ability to spin his nails and fire them akin to bullets, and regrowing his nails in seconds.
ACT2 manifests when Johnny shoots a nail whilst incorporating the Golden Rectangle in a fight against Sandman. Despite the longer regrow time, the nails possess more power and a new ability that lets the holes of the bullets follow the target for a small amount of time.
ACT3 is the final "base" form for Tusk and manifests when Johnny shoots himself with a Golden Rectangle-empowered nail, enabling him to transfer parts of his body through the holes to shoot from different directions. It was awakened by an advice from Jesus in a fight against Axl RO.
ACT4 manifests itself as a result of Johnny utilizing Slow Dancer's power combined with the golden rectangle, which enables Johnny to fire Golden Spin nail-bullets that have infinite rotation. ACT4 possesses the power to force open D4C Love Train's dimensional wall, and trap anyone hit by it to a single spot indefinitely.
Personal Skills
Horseriding: Johnny Joestar has been described as a genius jockey, being one of the favorites of the Steel Ball Run race. His skill allows him to ride across many types of terrain, and challenge even fellow genius jockey Diego Brando. Johnny possesses great knowledge of his horse Slow Dancer, notably its abilities and limits, being able to gauge what Slow Dancer will be capable of at any moment.
Intelligence: Johnny Joestar proves himself a competent Stand User, being able to use Tusk's abilities to the fullest. Johnny Joestar has occasionally used the terrain and his enemies own power against them, and was perceptive enough to quickly deduce Alternate Diego's time stopping power.
Marksmanship: When using Tusk, Johnny proves to possess great marksmanship, being able to hit little and/or moving targets, even if firing from odd angles and perspectives, such as when Tusk ACT3 separates his hand from his arm.
George Joestar I: Johnny had a complex relationship with his father. In one hand Johnny always sought his father's affection and approval. On the other hand, when George wondered if "God had taken the wrong son", Johnny was deeply saddened and chose to abandon his love for his father, shutting his heart. Johnny confessed to Valentine that he could not think of his own father in the same admiring way Valentine thought of his. Towards the end of the Steel Ball Run race, however, George shows up in the crowd and shows Johnny Nicholas' boots, reconciling with his son at last. Johnny named his son after George.
Nicholas Joestar: As his elder brother, Nicholas was a model to follow. Johnny admired him since his childhood and feels excessively guilty over his death, thinking that the Universe cursed him for it.
Danny: While Jonathan and Danny the dog had a shared childhood, this mouse was only a temporary pet for Johnny. When Nicholas died, Johnny believed that Danny and thus him, were responsible for frightening the horse Nicholas was riding and causing his death. Johnny retains good memories of the mouse but also haunting ones, even summoning it when Civil War affects him.
Rina Higashikata : Johnny and Rina's relationship began after the race and persisted for several years. Both fell in love with each other soon after meeting and they became married, livng a happy life for a while. After she becomes ill, Johnny goes searching for the corpse parts as a cure. His love for Rina is so deep, Part 8 Spoilerhe ends up sacrificing himself to save her and their son.
George Joestar II: Johnny loved his son deeply. When the Rock Disease bounced into him, Part 8 SpoilerJohnny sacrificed himself to save George and confided that he was happy to have him in his life.
His daughter: Daughter he had with Rina. Only listed in the Joestar Family Tree.
Friends
Gyro Zeppeli: Johnny and Gyro are friends, partners in the Steel Ball Run, and also apprentice and master in the art of the Spin. At first, Johnny's determination got Gyro's interest, leading Gyro to assist Johnny in mounting Slow Dancer before the race. After the first stage, Johnny wins the respect of Gyro, leading to Gyro making him his apprentice in the Spin. Over the course of the Steel Ball Run, this apprenticeship grows into a partnerhood, and then a deep friendship. Despite their opposing personalities causing regular clashes as to how to take on a difficult situation, Gyro and Johnny ultimately get along well and share many moments of friendship. Gyro notably likes to jest with Johnny and tells him bad jokes or miscellaneous songs that Johnny usually appreciates. Due to their regular battles, Johnny and Gyro fight well together, and see each other as valuable allies. Their friendship is such that either one is willing to put himself in danger for the other, and Johnny notably abandoned his Corpse Parts to save Gyro's life. In turn, Gyro often uses life-or-death situations as opportunities to help Johnny master the fundamentals of the Spin and evolve his Stand, Tusk. After Gyro's death, Johnny was devastated, a fact Valentine attempts to use to goad him into sparing him and giving up the Holy Corpse. Gyro stands by Johnny in spirit even after his death, as Johnny returns his corpse to the Zeppeli family in Italy. Gyro's continuous support helped Johnny get out of his depression and enabled him to begin anew. The relationship of the two has similarities to Jonathan's relationship with Will or Joseph's relationship with Caesar.
Lucy Steel: Johnny and Lucy are allies against Valentine, but do not interact with each other much. Despite being Jonathan and Erina's counterparts, they never develop a relationship, unlike their namesakes.
Mountain Tim: Mountain Tim was first suspicious of Johnny as Benjamin Boomboom tricked him into believing Johnny was killing competitors in the race, but both later became allies in the fight against the Boomboom Family and Oyecomova. Tim notably taught Johnny about the Devil's Palm and Stands.
Rivals
Diego Brando: Johnny considers Diego a rival in his quest for the Corpse Parts. Due to Diego's own ruthlessness, Johnny won't hesitate to kill him if he gets in his way. At one point, Diego allies with Valentine to kill Johnny and Gyro, but it doesn't last. While their relationship is more positive than that of their counterparts, Jonathan and Dio, they are enemies all the same.
Hot Pants: Johnny considers Hot Pants a rival in his quest for the Corpse Parts. He realizes that she is a woman after Gyro kills Ringo Roadagain, but doesn't reveal her true gender to Gyro out of respect for her privacy. After Hot Pants steals Johnny's Corpse Part yet leaves him a small part of the Spine, he is curious about Hot Pants motivations for acquiring it.
Sandman: Because Sandman didn't go after the Saint's Corpse and acted friendly with the duo, Johnny didn't see him as an enemy. Ultimately, Sandman allied with Valentine and tried to kill Johnny with Gyro and take the Corpse Parts, they thus became enemies. Still, Sandman was indifferent to Johnny, only seeing an internal struggle among the white men he considered enemies that he could exploit.
Enemies
Funny Valentine: As both tried to gather the Saint's Corpse, Johnny and Valentine were enemies, but didn't interact much until their single fight. Because of his selfish motive, Valentine saw Johnny as unworthy of the Corpse and tried to kill him, though he treaded carefully with Johnny since Tusk was partly immune to his Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap.
Diego Brando (Parallel World): As this version of Diego was recruited by Funny Valentine to take the Saint's Corpse from Johnny, it was only natural that the two were enemies. Diego was wary of Tusk, which could move partially in his stopped time, and likewise, Johnny learned of THE WORLD's power and also was wary of it.
Dr. Ferdinand: Dr. Ferdinand was an assassin and Stand-user hired by President Funny Valentine to murder Johnny and Gyro and gather the Corpse Parts. Using his Stand, Scary Monsters, Ferdinand attempts to transform Johnny and Gyro into dinosaurs bound to his will, and uses a similarly-transformed Diego Brando as a means to that end.
The Boomboom Family: A family group of three Stand-users, Andre, Benjamin, and L. A. Boomboom, who use their talents to murder competitors in the Steel Ball Run, eventually targeting Johnny and Gyro as well. After a failed attempt to frame Johnny for the murder of several other competitors, they attempt to assassinate Johnny, Gyro, and Mountain Tim directly, failing when Johnny first develops his Stand, Tusk.
Oyecomova: Oyecomova is a Neapolitan assassin and terrorist who once encountered Gyro Zeppeli before he developed his Stand, Boku no Rhythm wo Kiitekure. He attempted to use this ability to assassinate Gyro, and Johnny in the process, but proved no match for their combined skills in the Spin.
Ringo Roadagain: A duelist working for Funny Valentine, Ringo Roadagain holds the philosophy that a true man must gamble his life against others in order to prove his worth. He notes that Johnny has the "dark determination" to kill if need be and thus would have a chance against him. Nevertheless, after incapacitating Johnny, he is defeated by Gyro.
This story is the tale of me starting to walk. Not in the physical sense... but in an adolescence to adulthood sort of way... (この「物語」はぼくが歩き出す物語だ。肉体が…………という意味ではなく青春から大人という意味で……)
There was a beauty that existed on this beach... a beauty within the darkness. I was drawn to something on this beach Will there be a light called hope here...?
You ran well. Old horse, you've gained a lot of experience from this race. Riding on the rough ground, going across that forest, and rushing downhill with no errors. And despite how much you've been sweating, you can still keep on going...! Your legs are in perfect shape! Your breathing is also in good spirits! We're only at 40-50 horse lengths away! But he dashed ahead too early! He'll be tired! Let's surprise this Gyro Zeppeli!
It wasn’t supposed to be my brother, it should have been me who was taken. I should have been the one to die… That’s why I had to pay the price. Someday, Fate would catch up with me.
We’re going to go and corner Dio and take the Left Eye. But, of course… he’ll relatiate, using his Stand. If we ease up on him, he’ll kill us both. I just want to know what you’ll do when he starts fighting back… I’m prepared to shoot him, if need be.
Shit. Just a little more, dammit! I’m sure it’s just a little more! I want to get my hands on that corpse no matter what! I don’t care about living or dying or who’s just and who’s evil! I don’t even give a fuck about the corpse being a saint or whatever!! I’m still negative! I want to get up to zero! If I can get the corpse, I can get my negative back to zero!
Do you know what a fetish is? I’ve got a little fetish… This is… well, huh… with girls…. Do you know what a bug bite fetish is…? When girl’s arms or legs or something get bitten by a mosquito and their skin swells and gets a little red. That excites me! That’s all! Don’t tell anybody! Ah, I knew it, I take it back! I told you I’d wish I hadn’t said it!
Gyro, for this reason… this was the reason for “lesson 5”. Thank you… Thank you, Gyro. I truly… truly… thank you… I can’t find any other words to express it.
Tusk ACT 4. The sacrifice, President Valentine! Which do you think it will really be? Ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora oraaaah!!!!!!
Gyro… I’m sorry… I’m really sorry… I wanted to believe… I really wanted to believe the President… Goodbye. Gyro… goodbye. (ジャイロ…すまない...すまなかった…本当に...さようなら...ジャイロ…信じたかった…本当に…大統領を信じたかった…さようならジャイロ…さようなら。)
Who knows that the Corpse is really important…? Who understands the Corpse? In this world, it is I alone, Johnny Joestar. There’s no way I’ll hand it over to anyone… the only one with the right to end this is me!
This is a story of revival… How I was literally able to start walking again… and thinking back, I was constantly praying the whole journey… even this cross-continental race by horse was a journey of prayer. Praying for the weather tomorrow. Praying that when when we wake up the next day there would be a road on the land. Praying that we would have food and a place to sleep. Praying that our campfire would light. And while these common things would repeat, prayer that my friend and the horses would be okay. And we crossed each river one by one. Now… I have crossed the final river.
Why don’t we pray… that we have a safe voyage… crossing the Atlantic Ocean, and getting you back home… home. Let’s go home. (「祈って」おこうかな………航海の無事を………この大西洋を渡って家に帰ろう………家に…帰ろう…)
Why did it have to be the person I loved...? Why did the disease have to choose her...? Just one time... just this once... please, forgive me. Can't you just give it to someone I don't know in her place...? As long as my wife is spared, I'm okay with that... just this once.
I won't use the Holy Corpse anymore. It will bring misfortune to someone somewhere. George Joestar, I'm glad I was able to meet you... that is enough for me.... I couldn't exchange that for anything. I have found a happiness... that cannot be replaced.
In the first chapter, his name is written in Japanese as "ジョニー", whereas from the second chapter on, it is written as "ジョニィ". Both have the same pronunciation, however.
According to Araki, he always wanted the protagonist of Part 7 to fight against nature itself while at the same time, having his struggles help him on a path to maturity.[19]
Johnny reveals to Gyro that he has a paraphilia for women with bug bites.[20]
Johnny's hat might be a reference to the mask worn by the character "Captain USA" from the movie Cannonball Run, as the name Steel Ball Run is a reference to said movie.
