Johnny Joestar

Johnny Joestar, born Jonathan Joestar is the protagonist of Steel Ball Run and an integral part of history in JoJolion. He is the seventh protagonist of the series and the sixth to be referred to as JoJo.

A former genius jockey, Johnny, who is now a paraplegic, teams up with Gyro to enter the 1890 Steel Ball Run race. They seek to uncover Spins secrets and win the $50,000,000 cash prize. On their journey, they encounter various Stand abilities and confront U.S. President Funny Valentine, who wants the power of the Saint's Corpse. Johnny loses Gyro in a final battle but eventually avenges his death. He leaves the race to return Gyro's body to Italy.

Johnny met Rina Higashikata after the race, they married, and moved to Morioh, Japan, where they had a son, George Joestar III. Rina fell ill, so Johnny returned to America to obtain the Saint's Corpse to cure her. It worked, but the disease transferred to their son. To save both, Johnny sacrificed himself, using his Stand to transfer the disease. He was later crushed by a miraculous new Stand. He is buried under Twin Pine trees in Morioh, and it's believed his corpse gives Morioh its supernatural properties. Johnny is both a user of Spin and a Stand User, who wields the multipurpose Stand, Tusk.

Personality Traits
Johnny is kind of a jerk. He seems to be the only JoJo that acts less noble and more in his own self-interest.

Johnny is 19 in Part 7 and 29 in the Part 8 flashbacks.

Spin & Tusk
After Gyro teaches Johnny the basics of Spin, Johnny unlocks his Stand, Tusk, after having stepped through the Devil's Palm. Tusk evolves three times, and has four forms- each with a new ability.


 * ACT1- Allows Johnny to shoot his fingernails off his hands like bullets. The nails grow back quickly.


 * ACT2- Allows Johnny to shoot more powerful versions of the fingernail bullets, but the regrow time is much longer.


 * ACT3- With this form he is able to shoot holes into objects and transfer himself through them like a portal.


 * ACT4- Allows Johnny to shoot Golden Spin fingernail bullets that are imbued with infinite rotation. This infinite rotation can counteract any ability.
