At this day and age of whiny emo protagonists a gentleman hero like Jonathan is a breath of fresh air.

Then I started reading part 2, and realized Joseph is a fucking loud mouthed, troublemaking punk and that absolutely put me off from reading it :-X
Funny.  That is exactly the reason why I liked Joseph so much more than Jonathan.  :P

Jonathan always seemed sort of boring to me.  Like, he was just a stock manga protagonist without much unique about him.  He's a bit better in the anime, but Joseph has always been the more interesting of the two to me.

He is sort of boring. Like I said, his appeal (IMO) is that his story is so ordinary, that it's almost relatable to a regular person (you know, except the part where he's a super strong, naturally athletic, and proficient in combat all of a sudden). After the threat is over he carries on with his idyllic life.

At this day and age of whiny emo protagonists a gentleman hero like Jonathan is a breath of fresh air.
You get it!

Joseph has great antics but he does talk a bit much at times.

Anime rocks either way.

Doesn't even matter cuz the best protag is Giorno.  He joins the mafia and beats up their boss to stop them from selling drugs to kids.  What a stand up guy.

More specifically, he beats up their boss and replaces him.
Except he's always in the back and rarely does shit and is a boring protagonist because of it, much like Jotaro. But fangirls love both of them precisely because they're tall dark n' silent and have all the solutions.
If I struggled to the end of my determination, to the end of my way of life with my followers, if the result is ruin, then this ruin is inevitable. Grieve. Shed tears. But you cannot regret.

Jolyne is best JoJo because she stayed sane through ALL of part 6. The ONLY JoJo that has a stand but isn't a sociopath lol.

Johnny and Josuke aren't sociopaths.

Josuke 1 or 2? 1's a sociopath.

Rest in peace, Tamez. Thank you for everything.

Punching a serial killer and a creepy dude who threatened his mom into a rock and a book respectivally is pretty harsh but hardly makes him a sociopath of any sort.

What happens next when someone says "Josuke's hair looks terrible."?







Okay, maybe i'm exaggerating there a bit.

Rest in peace, Tamez. Thank you for everything.

He sticks a knife in your chest without hurting you. An extreme version of his old man's practical jokes.

the art doesn't resemble the original manga too much IMO.

For part 1 that's really not a bad thing. The anime, like ASB is made to look more like Araki's newer artwork (meaning when/if they do Part 6 anime, Jolyne will look like a woman, fufufu).

But I thought Buccelatti was the protagonist of part 5, not Giorno.  Giorno is just some guy who hangs around never doing anything, except for occasionally reminding people that he, Giorno Giovanna, has a dream.

Same deal with Jotaro.  He was ostensibly the main character of his part, but he never actually did anything important.  And then he kept showing up in the next three parts and continued to never do anything important.

Jotaro sucks.

List of things Giorno did
-Beat Ciocoletta
-Beat Diavolo
-Helped beat Ghiacco
-Saved Fugo's life
-Saved Polnareff's life

That seems like enough to me.  As for Jotaro he had more fights than anyone it's just that all of part 3's team got to have their time in the spotlight.

They might not be award material protagonists, but saying that they "did nothing important" is bullshit.
