Fun fact!: Araki states in Jotaro’s bio that he doesn’t show his emotions because Jotaro just straight up thinks he’s extremely readable. He just, thinks people can tell what he’s thinking or feeling, which contributes to why his emotions aren’t obvious. (For part 3) It even says that that causes miscommunications between him and other people which led to this delinquent persona.

I feel like Jotaro is very good at reading people emotionally, but not exactly all that good at consoling people in some areas. He’s never really felt inferior until the DIO fight and even then the reason he won is his confidence and constantly outmaneuvering DIO and outsmarting him, he’s more or less a “show don’t tell” or “actions speak louder than words” sorta guy

[@ronramen5827]

Someone in the comments of another video was talking about how Jotaro should’ve gotten a cloud ghost telling Jolyne about she can do this. That’s not it works. Again, actions speak louder than words, and when Jotaro chose her over ZA WARUDO, it definitely spoke volumes. Plus, Jotaro’s sacrifice led to Jolyne’s sacrifice which led to Pucci’s death which led to a better version of the Phantom Blood universe (literally the exact same except Pucci never existed, so for sure better), which also led to Emporio’s probable depression and PTSD.

Was there not also an issue with assuming that people know what he thinks and means, causing a lack of communication?

Something that I think most people from the overseas part of the fandom don’t really think about or know about is that Jotaro especially in part 4 feels like the personification of all the good parts of a Japanese father, while part 6 Jotaro shows all the bad parts of one. In part 4 he was always there for his allies, never really gets angry at his party, always knew what buttons to push to make them understand what parts they need to work on. And he never even stops working, he is the unbreakable wall of the group. In part 6 though he’s rarely there, he was never there, he never connected to Jolyne as much as with the Morioh warriors. He never showed his emotions with his OWN family, the fact that he was the unbreakable wall was the problem, an almost absent father that loves his own daughter didn’t even connect with her. But in the end, his last moments shows us that he believes that his own daughter has grown up, and didn’t need him anymore, a bittersweet moment for any parent that loves his child. Man I love Jotaro... I miss him.

Everytime he uses Star Platinum The World he has to remember that The World is the same power that caused the death of his friends. I just feel so bad for the guy, and even in Part 4 and 6 I feel he still struggles to express his emotions even though he’s better than he was in Part 3. I hope that Speedwagon money got him some good therapy.

[@ajojofann]

i really dont get why so many comments act like jotaro is this depressed loser that apparently would break down in tears when he uses The World. it simply isn't jotaro. he avenged his friends and cured Holly.

He repeatedly uses it in Part 4 and Part 6 without even mentioning DIO or his friends, he's not some sort of Vietnam war veteran that has permanent PTSD.

[@aaronymous9]

@@ajojofann I mean you can interpret the character that way, I just interpret him differently. A lot of my friends and family are similarly stoic and act like him, which is why I associate his story with a lot of underlying emotions, because the people I know in real life who act that way are one hair off from a mental breakdown, they just don’t show it. The fun part of being a fan of something is how people interpret a character differently, I just think he’s a less interesting character if you take him at face value and don’t think deeply about him. Araki doesn’t delve deep into his characters often, especially the main ones, we never see a deep look into Giorno for example. Which is why often the fans come up with their own ideas, especially fans like me who prefer character based writing in general. But that’s not everyone’s thing and I get it but don’t rain on everyone else’s parade because you don’t believe in death of the author or fans having a little bit of fun with established characters.

[@TheJotaroKujo]

That is who Jotaro Kujo is. He's not edgy because it's "cool" or "badass". Emotionally distant people are ALWAYS like that because they once cared too much and lost it, creating a feeling of overwhelming loss that stays with them their entire lives. It's a self defense mechanism. The less you care about something, the less grief when you lose it. Something happened to Jotaro in his early years. Maybe a problem with his always absent father, maybe a betrayal of a friend, maybe even a death. That scarred him and he became that way. The events of SC, where he lost 3 important friends, only added to it. And he had to live with that his entire life. He killed Dio in order to save his mother, and that cursed him with a life of dealing with constant threats of revenge for what he did. He was not able to enjoy a life of love with his wife and daughter. Maybe he could have found a better answer and not abandon them completely, but the life he lived and what he learned from it led him to protect them by simply not being around them. But here's the thing. As much as he can try, Jotaro can never change who he really is. He loves his family more than anything. And he will do anything to protect them, just like he embarked on a very difficult crusade to save his mom as a 17 year old boy. When forced to make the choice of saving the entire universe or his daughter, he will ALWAYS choose to save his daughter. Jotaro can't live with sacrificing his daughter for the greater good. She means a lot more than the entire universe to him. So he saved her. Of course he did.

[@tofferooni4972]

My name is Jotaro Kujo, I am 28 years old. I live in Morioh Grand Hotel as of currently. I am married and have a four year old daughter back in America. I came here to do my research on a specific type of starfish found commonly in Morioh, and I get home whenever I want, as I am a responsible adult. I do occasionally smoke and drink. I'm in bed by 12pm, and make sure I get as little sleep as possible, no matter what. After having a glass of coffee and doing 20 minutes of situps before going to bed, I barely ever fall sleep at all, as the screams and cries of my old comrades keep echoing in my head. But like a strong man, I wake up pretending I have no fatigue or stress whatsoever. I was told I have many psychological issues at my last check up, yet I refuse to receive any treatment. I'm trying to explain that I'm a person who wishes to have a peaceful life. I distract myself by fighting enemy stand users alongside my technical uncle, Josuke, and his friends, like Koichi or Okuyasu. Fighting others can distract me from my issues that would cause me to lose sleep at night. That is how I deal with the world, and I know that is what brings me peace.

Like you don’t understand how pissed off I get when Jotaro gets called “the worst father” When he is like buccirati’s dad level of “the best dad in jojo” People harp on Jotaro leaving Jolyne, because they refuse to look at a single page of stone ocean for even a second, and only hears from memes. Jolyne forgave Jotaro because she knew he had to distance himself to protect her. Once again, people miss the point by harping on it. Jolyne is the only person that Jotaro freaks out for when she gets hurt. And people refuse to accept that fact for some reason

I don't get it. Protect her from what? Why is it that he couldn't be there for her? People say that it was because his enemmies were after him, but even so, they knew who his daughter was anyways and did her what we know. It doesn't make any sense for me, he could have actually protected her by being with her, I just don't see how leaving her alone with her mother was better (?)

[@dingletun]

@@analisamelculo85it was to show his character trait of doing anything to protect those he cares of, despite appearing as menacing. If he were to be hunted after enemy stand users (which he was likely to), then his character traits would lead him to prioritise keeping those he cares of safe from collateral damage or being held hostage. Being that none of the enemy stand users knew of Jolyne, Jotaro figured that if he were to leave her with his wife, anyone after him couldnt use Jolyne as leverage. Dont even get me started on the most important point of stand users, and its that they attract other stand users. Jotaro figured you that such stand users would be Dio’s subordinates. Remember how he knew the contents of Dio’s Diary? At some point , it mentioned Dio making a very good friend he could trust to assist him. He prob figured that person would be after him, and he didnt want them to use Jolyne as leverage for him to give them what they want. So he left Jolyne with her mom, so as to not put her through it. Once again, Jotaro’s character trait of wanting to protect those he cares of.

Kronos Gaming That was deemed a continuity error cuz Araki did say that he made a lot of mistakes with the later half of the Made In Heaven story arc and said he wasn’t pleased with how it turned out during it’s initial publish. Which is why he made the “Universe Reset” ending at the last minute to “fixed those mistakes”. Which is why you see their alternate universe versions end up together cuz that made more sense as to why they would be together as they had different lives and personalities. But do keep in mind, Irene and Annakiss are different people in terms of personality. I mean it never made sense as to why she would wanna do that cuz all through out the manga she has never showed any interest in him. She was mostly oblivious to his advances and would be creeped out by his behavior. She has even caught him trying to sneak a kiss off of her many times. And she slapped or punched him in the process. And for her to out of no where without any character development or build up to now wanna accept his proposal just out of the blue? Yeah that made no sense. Even for JoJo standards. This didn’t sit well with fans either. In fact fans deemed the Universe Reset as a “cheap” way to get out of his mistakes with the previous chapters. Araki did say he was mentally exhausted when he wrote Part 6. Which was why he wanted to end the JoJo series for good. Fans all agree the ending was the worst. Plus in the story of Eyes Of Heaven, Jolyne was still not interested in Anasui in the games story. And even 1988 Jotaro didn’t like that guy. Plus it seemed unlikely to happen, anyway. Cuz Jotaro didn’t approve and wouldn’t want that maniac around her. But it was unlike Jolyne to just instantly out of the blue now want to. You can see why Part 6 was a failure to a majority of the fan base. It’s many inconsistencies and lack of proper character development. Which is why Araki said he will not make Part 6 into an anime cuz he didn’t want to show his failed series in anime form and rather skip ahead. But Araki did write Eyes Of Heaven’s story. And in the games story, Jolyne never had any interest in Anasui just like in the majority of the manga. And would not even pay attention to what he says or even care. So that remained consistent with her character. And 1987 Jotaro seemed have intimidated him to back off. Plus he inadvertently altered all the timelines in the multiverse after killing DIO Heaven Ascension as Kakyoin, Avdol and Iggy are alive after DIO’s defeat. Plus in the games ending, you see him meet Koichi like in Part 4, but with Jolyne as a little girl with him. Implying he is now raising Jolyne this time after meeting Jolyne from 2012 and promises to be be a better father to her and be there for her. So this changes her life. Whether you accept the game as canon or not is up to you. Cuz many fans now believe it is canon to the multiverse. Araki seemed to have implied that.

The craziest thing about Jotaro to me is how Part 6 makes you change your entire perception of Parts 3 and 4. Like... throughout Part 3, you *can* think of Jotaro as being emotional inside but just not showing it, and throughout Part 4 you *can* kind of appreciate how he's grown... but you wouldn't. Not to the degree you should for Jotaro. But Stone Ocean changes that. What we see of Jotaro during Stone Ocean, even if it's only for a short time, manages to put a spin on literally everything we've experienced about Jotaro so far. His unawareness of how to care for others and how to show his own emotions, in the light of Part 6, puts his perceived edginess in Part 3 in a whole other meaning. What we see of how the burden of fighting the remnants of Dio's army destroyed his life makes us watch his journey with the Stardust Crusaders in a much more negative way: He's not the valiant hero anymore for whom everything will be ok. Rewatching Stardust Crusaders after Stone Ocean, Jotaro is a doomed soul. And you get to watch in horror as the death warrant on his personal life is signed. Part 3 makes you believe that Jotaro is an edgelord. Part 4 does little to change that. And Part 6... Part 6 shatters all these notions in the most spectacular way possible. Part 6 destroys your previous perception of Jotaro and replaces it with something that makes you look back on the ENTIRE character that is Jotaro... and see a different person. He was never "The Protagonist"... he was just a guy. He was never an edgelord... he was just unaware of showing emotion. And he was never cold and distant... he was just afraid. Afraid that his presence would doom others.

Solgy but I bet Jonathan is great for you? A guy who had almost no development and stayed basically the same throughout his part. What about josukè, selfless but just his mom and dad mixed in one. Or what about Giorno which is just dio and Jonathan mixed

[@d3-ll754]

One of my favorite Jotaro moments is in one his brief, brief cameos in Pt 5. Giorno steals Koichi's luggage and passport and when Koichi calls Jotaro and tells him what happened, Jotaro doesn't get angry or complain at all. He just apologizes to Koichi that he had to go through that and says he'll send some replacement stuff over for him. It's a small, possibly insignificant thing, but I dunno I liked it. I always felt that Jotaro's stoic and badass personality fit the mentor character more than the actual main character, which is why I didn't care for him much in Pt 3. But Pts 4 and especially 6, Jotaro was one of my favorite characters there.

[@benobrien7920]

Had the situation been less urgent, I think that Jotaro would have stopped Pucci right then and there. But Jotaro was in the middle of what was probably the most important fight he had ever been in, and right there in the moment when those knives were pointed at Jolyne, all the lives of his fallen comrades went through his head, and the fear of losing someone else made him choose to save his daughter, with the reassurance that maybe there would be another way to stop Pucci.

[@jr.jackrabbit10]

@@Fitness_Trends SPOILERS FOR THE ENDING OF PART 6 I feel like people misunderstand the ending of Part 6. It's mentioned that every living thing that survives the time reset is safely transferred over into the next world. The people that we see at the end of Stone Ocean are still the same individuals that we've been following throughout the rest of the story, they just don't remember any of the events that occurred because the time acceleration was stopped by Emporio at just around before the beginning of part 6. My theory for why the names have been changed is that because Pucci no longer exists in the new universe, a sort of butterfly effect causes names to be slightly different. This is also why none of them are in prison, because Pucci was never there to frame Jolyne / Irene in the first place, causing the others through the butterfly effect to also not be convicted of any crimes for one reason or another. The reason nobody remembers Emporio is because the universe was returned to normal speed before anyone had met him in the last universe, so nobody knew him in the new one. At any rate, Araki has personally confirmed that the souls of the people at the end of Stone Ocean are the same as those at the beginning. We know that souls cannonically exist in JoJo, as seen from the soul-swap in Golden Wind, so we know this isn't just Araki saying things. Everyone, including people like Giorno, Josuke, and Joseph, remain completely intact. None of the characters that were killed after the very beginning of Stone Ocean remain dead, except for Foo Fighters as it was a stand who's memories / free will started after Stone Ocean began. Besides that, It's really a "happily ever after" for JoJo and a perfect way to wrap up the timeline in time for Steel Ball Run. TL:DR, None of the main characters (including Jotaro) remain dead at the end of Stone Ocean because their souls are pulled through into the new universe, so it's really the same exact people. The reason their names are changed is because of the butterfly effect caused from Pucci's death in the new universe. They don't remember Emporio because the universe stopped acceleration before the events of Part 6 occurred, when nobody at the time had met him.

7:35 I liked this statement, "It's hard to make those decisions because it's either the world or your daughter." Since, many people don't seem to get at all why Jotaro just couldn't be there for his family but they don't understand the big and especially hard decisions he had to make/or sacrifice, not sure if it was the right choice, but that's the choice he ended up with mostly because having a family of his own was hard for him in the first place. It wasn't easy for him. Yeah?

[@underscore2736]

It's mentioned ALL THE TIME how stand users attract other stand users, and people still don't get it, if jotaro really wanted to fuck off and go beat up stand users, why was his stand weaker in diu? Obviously because he was trying to settle down and be with his family, but that didn't work out.

[@kamina_Sea_You_Again]

Part 6 i feel despite being one of the most disliked? or i guess subjective parts only makes Jotaro better in my eyes. His strength of character and the way Araki decided to finish his story is genius yet bittersweet. He's not perfect. Never has been. never would be, but Jotaro despite misconceptions is a man of heart. His biggest strength is his love for his friends and family to distance himself to maybe even deny himself happiness or a normal life simply to save others, but at the same time it's his greatest weakness in part 6 which inevitably leads to his death. Yet it's oh so Jotaro, Putting himself on the line to protect someone else. The fact he saves her over the defeat of Pucci and the saving of the universe proves this so. For a man seemingly made of stone. He truly had the biggest heart.

[@Nakai865]

I mean it one of the best part about part 6 lol. Jotaro grows even more as a character.

I think the best part that illustrates Jotaro’s mentor role and how much he’s grown in DiU is in the Sheer Heart Attack arc, which’s one of the (many) reasons its my favorite arc in part 4. Koichi is of course thinking with his emotions rather than his brain and suggests they go after Kira instead, while Jotaro, having his fair share of experience with stands, realizes what he’s dealing with and takes a calmer and more levelheaded approach. The only reason he ends up getting blasted later on is in order to save Koichi from Sheer Heart Attack once it targets him after dropping his guard.
