higashikata jousuke

Height: 180 cm Blood type: B Nationality: Japanese Jousuke is the main protagonist of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Part 4. He begins his story as a new freshman in the town of Morioh. Part 4 starts with Joutarou seeking him out, as Jousuke is the illegitimate son of Joutarou's grandfather, Joseph Joestar. Jousuke makes his entrance into the JoJo universe as a caring, popular, and slightly naive teenager. Inspired by his police officer grandfather's (on his mother's side) sense of justice, he isn't afraid to fight for those in need. He is confronted by Joutarou with the need to eradicate evil Stand users from his hometown, Morioh. Initially, he refuses, believing it is none of his business. However, he quickly changes his mind when his policeman grandfather is killed by a criminal Stand user. With a vow paralleling that of Peter Parker, Jousuke decides to deliver justice to evil Stand users in his grandfather's place. Jousuke is polite and respectful to people, addressing them as "Mister" or "Miss" until someone offends him (which isn't very hard to do). The easiest way to upset him is to mock his hair, which makes Jousuke angry and explosively violent. Jousuke grew up with his single mother, never knowing his father Joseph Joestar. He is crafty and has a sneaky streak for money, shown multiple times in the story. Nevertheless, he is dependable and friendly, always willing to protect those in need. Jousuke's Stand power, Crazy Diamond, is a melee Stand with short range (2m). Crazy Diamond has the ability of "restoration." It can repair damage (by returning an object to a previous state) and heal injuries (apart from Jousuke's own injuries). It cannot revive the dead but can restore an item to its raw materials (e.g., a table can be restored to timbers). This ability allows Crazy Diamond to perform various feats, including trapping enemies (by restoring pieces of a broken crate around the target) and tracking (e.g., restoring a torn piece of clothing so that it seeks out what it came from and reattaches). Its restoration ability often "malfunctions" when Jousuke is angry, causing objects to be improperly put back together. The Stand's name references Pink Floyd's song, "Shine On You Crazy Diamond."
