Pet Sounds
The unnamed parrot (オウム, Ōmu) is the main antagonist of Crazy Diamond's Demonic Heartbreak, a spinoff manga of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure.
It is a mysterious bird that was raised together with Pet Shop but escapes from its cage in Cairo, Egypt and flies all the way to Morioh, Japan. The parrot is a Stand user with a currently unnamed Stand.
Appearance
The parrot is large with a strong, curved beak and clawed feet. It wears a falconry hood with small holes for its eyes, adorned with bells and feathers on top. It also wears a long striped scarf around its neck.
Personality
The parrot would frequently circle the skies of Egypt observing people below. It is targeting Hol Horse for unknown reasons, possibly because it does not want to be captured by him. It was trained to hunt like Pet Shop and thus can be ruthless, forcing an innocent victim to run over several pedestrians on the street using its Stand ability.[1]
Abilities
The parrot's Stand is capable of recording events in punched cards and inserting them into someone's body. The victim's body is then forced to reenact the event, essentially parroting what happened.
History
Background
The parrot was raised and trained by a bird trainer, alongside a falcon named Pet Shop. Its trainer attempted to escape from DIO's grasp and was murdered. After that, it was raised by it's owner's mother.[1]
Crazy Diamond's Demonic Heartbreak
In March 1999, the parrot escapes from its cage and flies all the way to Morioh, Japan. While Hol Horse is searching for the parrot and Boingo around Budogaoka, the parrot uses its Stand on a man driving, forcing him to reenact the scene of Wilson Phillips running over pedestrians on the sidewalk. Hol Horse is also affected by the ability and starts hearing DIO's voice from the event. The car almost crashes into Hol Horse until Josuke intervenes.[1] Meanwhile, the parrot watches Josuke and Hol Horse from afar, perched atop a tree branch.[2]
The parrot follows Hol Horse to the Budogaoka Police Station, standing on top of nearby power lines. It activates its Stand on Hol Horse, inserting punched cards into his body. Hol Horse's body is then forced to reenact the scene of him about to shoot DIO from ten years ago, except this time he points Emperor to the back of the police inspector's head.[3]

Trivia
- In Chapter 127 of the manga, DIO has a cockatoo on his shoulder, potentially being the same as this parrot. The fifth episode of the anime replaced it with Pet Shop.
