Josuke Higashikata (JoJolion)
The tentatively-named Josuke Higashikata is the main protagonist of Part VIII: Jojolion.
Appearance
The protagonist is a tall, muscular man who resembles Jotaro Kujo, but his wardrobe consists of what seems to be a sailor suit. In multiple cover pictures of him, his hat has the same hand emblem that Jotaro's hat has. He also has a star-shaped birthmark in his shoulder and (to the astonishment of Yasuho Hirose) four testicles. He also presents diastema. He has an anchor on his shirt that resembles the anchor on the original Josuke's collar. Oddly enough, Yasuho mentions that he bears a resemblance to her dog Josuke.
Real Identity
The real name of this character is unknown. The second chapter stated that his name could be Yoshikage Kira, but he later doubts about it, thinking that the enemy in the upper room is the real Kira. It is later revealed that neither he nor the man attacking him is Yoshikage Kira. However, his DNA tests reveals that his body matches Yoshikage Kira, suggesting that there is indeed a special link between the two of them. In chapter 17 it reveals that the protagonist is a fusion of Yoshikage Kira and some one else, which could be a Joestar, due to his star-shaped birthmark (although Kira was part of the Joestar family from his mothers side).
As he has no known name at this time, he is given the name "Josuke Higashikata" by Norisuke Higashikata IV.
