J. Geil (J・ガイル, Jei Gairu) est un antagoniste mineur figurant dans la troisième partie de JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Stardust Crusaders, plus spécialement dans l'arc "Emperor et Hanged Man".
J. Geil est un assassin et le fils d'Enya Geil, la conseillère de DIO. Il est envoyé aux côtés de Hol Horse pour tuer le Groupe Joestar. Il est le meurtrier de Sherry Polnareff et l'homme contre qui Jean Pierre Polnareff veut se venger. J. Geil est un manieur de Stand et possède Hanged Man.
J. Geil est un homme musclé. Sa caractéristique la plus reconnaissable sont ses deux mains, qui tous des mains droites. Il est exceptionnellement hideux, ayant un crâne ovoïde chauve avec des arcane sourcillières prononcés et un visage maigre avec des yeux blanc laiteux, un petit nez, et une bouche presque sans dents.
Il porte une chemise et un pantalon de couleur unie, une veste en cuir et des manchettes. Lors de son introduction, il est également vu avec une casquette cachant ses traits, mais cette casquette disparaît par la suite.
Durant un flashback, on voit qu'il possédait de long cheveux bruns.
J. Geil est un manieur de Stand cruel et pervers au service de DIO.
It is known that J. Geil has raped and murdered several women during his life, including Sherry Polnareff, Jean Pierre Polnareff's sister. It can be inferred that he is also fairly sadistic as he states that Sherry's cries were music to his ears.
J. Geil possesses a certain level of confidence and cunning. Sure of Hanged Man's invincibility, J. Geil didn't hesitate to sic it against Polnareff and Noriaki Kakyoin, both accomplished Stand Users. He also has demonstrated some ability to strategize his battles. For instance J. Geil deliberately showed Hanged Man to Polnareff to provoke him and push him into pursuing him alone while J. Geil partnered with Hol Horse to guarantee they would kill the Frenchman. With Hol Hore, J. Geil would hide in the shadows while Hol Horse broke the glass needed for his Stand to work. They also worked out a combination attack as Emperor's bullets focused attention and allowed Hanged Man to stab a target from behind, which then would allow Emperor's bullet to hit the same target in the head. Their move did fail, as the one known victim of this attack, Muhammad Avdol, survived it. Even after the heroes discovered the nature of his power and injured him, J. Geil had enough wit to create a decoy by slashing an innocent bystander in the same way he was injured to ambush Polnareff from behind. During battle, J. Geil prefers to stay out of the battle and remotely pilot his Stand, using its mirror ability to attack from unexpected angles and take opponents by surprise. That said, J. Geil will inevitably gloat if he feels that he has cornered. At one point, he deliberately made Hanged Man appear in front of Polnareff and taunted him about Avdol and Sherry, and later mocked his efforts to seek revenge for her.
J. Geil shared a special link to his mother Enya the Hag, who received the same injuries he had moments before dying.
Hanged Man is a Stand made of light, which is able to travel from one reflective surface to another and can attack someone's reflection, harming the true person as well.
J. Geil is the man responsible for the rape and murder of Sherry Polnareff, earning him her brother's desire for revenge. He also tried to kill Sherry's friend but failed. No one but Polnareff believed the girls' testimony on J. Geil having two right hands. It is later implied that he raped numerous girls before Sherry, as he says that he had many girls who "loved and admired" him, Sherry being just one of them.
Entering DIO's service like his mother Enya, he is one of the seven Stand Users sent in Asia to stop the Joestars. J. Geil is first explicitely mentioned by Rubber Soul, who reveals a part of his ability to Jotaro Kujo.
In Calcutta, J. Geil makes his Stand appear in front of Polnareff and forcing him to separate from the rest of the group, making him an easy target for him and his partner Hol Horse. After a short confrontation between Emperor and Silver Chariot, Muhammad Avdol joins the fight but is quickly disposed of by a combination of the antagonists' Stands.
Polnareff is blinded by anger and is almost killed in the same way, but Noriaki Kakyoin manages to save him in time. The two escape with a jeep, but Hanged Man follows them and destroys the vehicle. At this point, Polnareff deduces J. Geil's Stand's true nature: it is made of light and can move between reflections at high speed and attack from there. Having guessed its location and trajectory, Silver Chariot manages to stab it, revealing J. Geil's position.
However, Polnareff and Kakyoin are once again tricked: J. Geil gathers a crowd of people and makes its Stand enter their eyes. The trick is spoiled by Kakyoin, who focuses the people's attention on a coin while Polnareff then kicks dirt in everyone's eyes and then cuts the fleeing Hanged Man with Silver Chariot. Silver Chariot then finishes J. Geil with a flurry. Flung into the air from the final blow, J. Geil comes down hung upside down on a gate, becoming a visual metaphor for the Tarot card his Stand represented.

CitationsThe events from "Emperor and the Hanged Man" take place in the game with no difference (being one of the few story arcs without drastic changes). J. Geil appears as the last enemy faced in this arc story.
J. Geil himself appears on the last cutscene within his Chapter in Super Story. His Stand, Hanged Man, is used as part of Hol Horse's moveset. As a special move, Hanged Man can appear from the ground and grab the opponent, rendering them unable to move. As part of one of Hol Horse's Super Combos, he'll crawl out of the ground and stab the opponent in the back and deal massive damage, but only if the opponent is caught in one of the three cracks that Hol Horse shoots into the camera screen.
