About
Little is currently known of Josuke. He was found buried underground naked by Yasuho Hirose, near the Walls of Eyes in Morioh . He shows symptoms of amnesia, as he is unable to idenity himself, nor where he lives. After a short fight with Joushuu Higashikata, he was sent to a hospital and later escaped using his stand, Soft & Wet . Following the brand of his hat, Yasuho and him visit the shop that the hat was purchased from and from there they were able to find a name,Yoshikage Kira and his Address. When they enter the apartment they found a nice and tidy place. They also found a naked girl in the bathroom Yasuho assumed was Kira's girlfriend. The girl didn't answer at first glaring at Yasuho and Kira. When Yasuho found a photo album with pictures of tied women she get mad with Jojo who can't believe he was like that. When Yasuho left, he tried to found an answer about that room, but the naked girl question him about rescuing her. Soon he learned about a Stand User in the upper room who wants to kill both of them.
Appearance/Personality
He is a tall muscular man that resembles Jotaro, but his wardrobe consists of what seems to bea sailor suit. He also has a star-shaped birthmark in his shoulder and (to the astonishment of Yasuho) has 4 testicles. Also, he presents diastema.
He is an amnesiac, so he don't remember his life and personal traits before meeting Yasuho, sometimes he get nostalgic about this. He is very serious and a detailed observer, capable of describe the physical characteristics of the object (color, length, measure).
He also favours being underneath the matress when sleeping because it "exerts compressional force upon the body."
