History

During the Steel Ball Run race, Johnny was burdened by depression and a subsequent lack of confidence. Notably calling himself a useless person, Johnny's bleak outlook of life stemmed from his youth. Johnny was a timid yet kind child during his childhood, adopting a wild mouse and calling it Danny. Though he was afraid of his harsh father George Joestar, he would try to live up to his expectations. Johnny idolized his older brother Nicholas, but when he died, falling from a horse that was seemingly startled by Danny, Johnny became guilt-ridden, believing that his brother's death was his own fault and that he should have died. He then believed throughout the years that fate itself was taking revenge on him for his crime and that every misfortune he received was in fact deserved.[2] It resulted in his obsession with the blessing of the Corpse, which would reset his karma to a neutral state of “zero” instead of the “negative” state of his curse. It also explains Johnny's rampant lack of confidence and near-constant bouts of panic.[16][17] as he thought that fate could at any moment take away his hope of acquiring the Corpse. When Johnny's father disowned him, Johnny shut himself off, creating a facade of conceitedness to hide the sadness this rejection caused him.[2] This content comes from JoJo's Bizarre Encyclopedia (https://jojowiki.com), and must be attributed to its authors if you are using it on another wiki or web page, as specified in the license.

Personality

Johnny Joestar is introduced as a distant, depressive paraplegic man whose career as a horse jockey was ruined when he was shot in the spine after conceitedly antagonizing a passerby.[9] However, after he momentarily experiences the ability to stand on his feet after touching the Steel Balls Gyro Zeppeli, he becomes determined to follow Gyro and, through his guidance, learn the Spin for himself.[10] Later, having his legs twitch due to the Corpse Parts, he additionally sets out to acquire them, despite the many other murderous pursuers of the same goal.

Appearance

Johnny is a young man with a well built upper body but paralyzed legs[1]. He has light eyes, and light, shoulder-length hair curling upwards at its ends. Johnny almost always wears a knit cap, printed with many small five-pointed stars. His hair sticks out of holes on either side of the top, taking a shape like short horns. A horseshoe hangs from the front, framing an image of the dark silhouette of the profile of a horse's reared head. While it is not seen, Johnny bears the Star Birthmark, as Lucy Steel is aware of it.[8] Over the course of the Steel Ball Run race, Johnny gradually changes into a more realistic appearance, with slightly wavy hair and a slightly fuller build. At the same time, he dons various outfits to suit the weather across America, each outfit retaining the star patterns of his hat and legs and the stripes on his torso. As a paraplegic, before the beginning of the race he is seen using a wheelchair; but during the race, he is usually mounted on his horse, Slow Dancer.
