Summary[]
Josuke Higashikata is the protagonist of the fourth part of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure series, Diamond is Unbreakable, and the fourth JoJo of the series. He is the illegitimate son of Joseph Joestar and Tomoko Higashikata. Josuke is a high school first-year residing in the town of Morioh. In the year 1999, he meets Jotaro Kujo, who informs him that he is Joseph's illegitimate son. After his grandfather dies, Josuke takes it upon himself to protect his beloved town from malevolent Stand Users. Josuke is a Stand User that wields Crazy Diamond, a Stand with the power to repair almost anything.
Josuke is a savvy, confident, and courageous teenager. Friendly and loyal, his amiable personality helps him make friends throughout the story. Josuke's primary trait is his overall kindness, which is reflected in his Stand, Crazy Diamond, who repairs and heals. Overall, Josuke behaves like a teenager and, aside from his general goal of protecting Morioh from any Stand menace, is concerned by more down to earth matters, such as hanging out with his friends. Sufficiently humble, Josuke confesses to being nervous around famous people, opting not to go with Koichi Hirose to first meet Rohan Kishibe due to his great fame as a mangaka. However, in a fight, Josuke is much more calm and observational, even though aspects of his goofiness tend to shine through. Josuke has a tangential respect of the law at best, having inherited his father's mischievous side, shown primarily in regards to winning money. While Josuke does have his fair share of groupies, he deals with them much less dramatically than his father and nephew. As a catchphrase, Josuke often says "Great" in English. In a quintessential idiosyncrasy, Josuke takes a hyper-sensitive reaction to comments at all disparaging his hairstyle, which Koichi interprets as Josuke reacting to insults towards his savior, although Josuke personally claims he doesn't know the reason for his wrath.
