Character Gyro Zeppeli from JoJo has over 9000 favs despite not being in anime yet... On MAL, that IS kind of impressive.

First of all, I have yet to even get into anything JoJo, but somehow I ended up clicking Gyro's page when checking out Trvshy's profile, but still...

To put it in perspective, one great character Askeladd from Vinland Saga had less than 1000 favs even though manga already run for years, but once it got anime, he is far more popular than ever currently 13000+ favs.

https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1791527

Guess I was wrong when I made a prediction that he will have 7000 favs at most.

...

Anyway, about Gyro, I don't know what kind of a character he is, but I really don't recall anyone being that popular without being animated first, at least not on this site.
There must be SOMETHING good about him.

Who knows how much will anime boost his popularity (let's be honest, number of favs is only a number, but we like talking about that stuff too), considering how most of us in anime over manga type of people.

That is, if anime with him happens.

Enjoy in thread.

I mean, he's the main character after all

Johnny Joestar also has an impressive number of favourites, even Funny Valentine do

well, it is #31 most popular manga and has around 130k members. although if it was an anime that would still put it at like #1100 so yeah seems kinda strange that 1/15 of the people who read it favourite him

Lul I expected everything but not being mentioned in here :oo
Well, he definitely deserves the high amount of favs. For me he's the best character in all of Jojo's by far. He's greatly written and likable.
I can't say too much about him as that would get into spoiler territory but he's amazing.

Haven't finished SBR yet but from what I've seen of him so far, I'm not surprised. He's just that good <3

It is

But you know what's also impressive

Anime S1 completed 15384
Anime S2 completed 14359

(also crazy how tiny the gap is between completions of S1 and S2)

Nearly everyone who read's jojo manga absolutely loves steel ball run and there's tons of people who read the jojo manga so it's expected but it's still impressive.

The Askeladd this is true, but Askeladd is actually an amazing character unlike Guyro, I doubt that anyone outside hardcore Jojo fans will like of favorite the character because he is really really awful.

And these is also Miyamoto Musashi from Vagabond who has more than 6000 favorites and no anime adaptation and Vagabond will most likely never have one.

JoJo is popular and Steel Ball Run is an awesome manga, easy the best JoJo part ever made. Funny Valentine is one of my favorite characters.

you have skipped early manga of JoJos though. Does early manga aren't related to 7th part?

It’s not related, tho knowing some basic stuff from the first few parts isn’t bad like what Stands are and who Joestar and Brando family.
But watching the earlier parts or reading JoJo p7 is the biggest waste of time imaginable, it’s literally better to just watch paint dry and you will get more knowledge and enjoyment out of it.

so JoJo is the worst. I get it. I will never watch/read it and will say others not to do that also because watching paint dry is a big-biggy-beegg statement to compare something with. I am interested in Ex-arm to watch in future. I am sure you will like it too.

He's going to be the first ever character in mal history to hit 10k favs without ever being animated.

That's genuinely crazy. It shows how much of a masterpiece jojo part 7 is.

JoJo can either have one of the worst written characters or one of the best written characters, I really doubt whether Araki actually wrote this 

Gyro is actually good and better written than 99% of the entire cast of the whole series

I only got him in my favs because I've seen many others have Askeladd in their favs even though they may not love the series

You might wonder why, but in my promoted posts this shows up, and this thread its been dead for a while and someone not even in my friends list promotes it too the top. I dont even think they understand how there algorithm works. I got a two week suspension for a post which does not exist, and im still feeling salty about as no one has explained it to me and my next suspension will be months even know I didnt break any rules or make the original. There is a massive amount of bots existing on this platform and I dont think they have any plan to sort it out. Worst case they in on it. Most likely DB mods taking back handers. We all know what happened earlier in the year when one of them got chopped and they had power to overwrite a shit ton of the database.
