I can't decide which one is my favorite: Joseph (Battle Tendency) or Josuke (Diamond is not Crash) but here is my orde anyway:

Joseph (Battle Tendency) = Josuke (Diamond is not Crash) > Johnny > Jonathan = Jolyne > Jotaro > Josuke (Jojolion) > Giorno

The new Josuke is interesting and has potential to rise up the rankings but the time will tell how his character evolves but right now I'm just interested in seeing how he will grow in the future rather than interested in his current character (still waiting for chapter 19..).

Joseph by far. He isn't a JoJo, but Gyro is almost as good as Joseph. Then Jolyne, Jotaro, Johnny, Jonathan and Giorno. Josuke from Jojolion hans't shown anything yet

I was originally planning on including Gyro, as he's more popular than everyone but Jotaro and Joseph... But.

I'll probably make a favorite JoJo's Bizarre Adventure character in general poll when/if part 3 gets an Anime, in that board...

My ranking:
Johnny=Jolyne>Jotaro>Joseph>Giorno>Jonathan>Josuke>Josuke8th
Voted for Johnny

http://i.imgur.com/qnk9UBZ.jpg Warning: Very long post regarding my ranking, but I'll add some art to keep it interesting. Also before I start, I agree with Gangin above that Johnny is the best, and that I am so hyped for Stardust Crusaders. http://i.imgur.com/WYvKHwk.jpg?1

Johnny and Jolyne were the most calm minded individuals in very dangerous situations, and were able to kill without hesitation if needed, but still found the need to have the villain prove themselves to be truly corrupt before justifying their actions.
Also, Johnny is the first Jojo of the new world line, which everyone after Stone Ocean's ending was confused to at first regarding what this meant, but slowly got used to his unshakable determination to keep moving forward even when his legs failed him and he lost his career.

Jotaro's reaction to being the third place and third Jojo




Joseph is just boss overall.

http://i.imgur.com/TFVjDC9.jpg
Giorno never let his troubled childhood affect the way that he treated others, in contrast to Dio's other sons who had run into strife and lost their moral compass.
http://i.imgur.com/wHy6Mpk.jpg
And not only is Jonathan/Dio his dad, he also was very wise about knowing his limits and when to act against orders to help his comrades, never losing sight of his personal goal in the meantime. http://i.imgur.com/DqD1vhQ.jpg


PHANTOM BLOOD



Diamond is NOT Crash


Jojolion
JosukeVIII is strong willed even without a clear picture of who or what he is, quick to adapting to the strange environment around him as fragments of his memories come up. A similar character to this would be Samurai Jack and Luke from Tales of The Abyss. Their characters each have an ultimate goal, whether it be finding their way to return to the past, finding out the meaning and purpose of a cloned existence and Josuke's desire to find out his past and why he was made/fused together.

But none of those three characters are willing to sacrifice people in order to accomplish their desires due to their good nature. Even though he may have an amazing backstory in the future, I find it hard to believe that Araki can top how amazing his characters in the previous arcs were. http://i.imgur.com/twL8LWF.jpg

UNIFORM SWAP INTERMISSION!



STEEL BALL RUN


http://i.imgur.com/4ZT1Ddc.jpg
And to conclude, I've only started and finished reading the entirely of Jojo months before the start of the new anime, but am amazed by its complexity when its seemingly shallow to new viewers. The thing I appreciate most about the series is the naming sense of characters and stands, nothing is better than revealing a person's soul through song, and when I noticed some of the naming even tied in with the villains' motivations and abilities I was really impressed. http://i.imgur.com/WkdlOSD.jpg

If it wasn't in a JoJo thread... I would of done a TL;DR.
Josuke's backstory did come 3 or 4 years before Giorno's, so I wouldn't use that as a drawback for Josuke's character...

Great pictures by the way.

For the first few I'd say I like them near equally, but if you had to twist my leg this is probably the order I'd decide upon:

Jolyne>Joseph>Josuke (IV)>Jotaro>Johnny>Giorno>Jonathan

I'd argue that we need to wait till the end of Jojolion to rank Josuke (VIII), but from what we've seen so far I'd probably put him just behind Joseph.

Atleast JoJo 2-7, Speedwagon, and Erina respect him.

True enough, from what we've seen from Josuke he's fantastic (definitely the most complex out of all of the Jojo's) and I've grown to appreciate Joshuu more thanks to the Trouble with the Curve mini-arc.

To me though he's still very much a wild card; there's still a lot of story left and I can't shake my suspicion that Araki might try to do something radically different with him later on that will either make us love him more or grow to hate him. It may just be the Kira connection making me think that way though.

The next 17 or so volumes will tell I suppose. A twist of Yoshikage may do him well.

Jotaro from part 3 alone would probably be my least favorite but still a great overly stoic badass... But that scene where he carves Jolyne's name into his arm even after his memory disc has been swiped.

I really like your topics YorozuyaGinSan I hardly remember names of my friends so I kind suck at remembering the names but I do remember faces so I had to google any character's name you write in these topics.

Thanks for all the efforts you put in all these topics, I just spend an hour writing in all the topics and you made me remember how EPIC mangas JOJO are.

My list go like this
1. Joseph
2. Jotaro
3.. Jonathon
4. Jolyne
5. Giogio
6. Josuke

Not to say I didn't enjoy them all but that's the order I enjoyed their character personality and character arcs in.

When I think about it I'm not even sure Joseph would be my fav if David pro didn't do such a good job adapting part 2 and if Joseph wasn't voiced by the awesome VA of sakata gintoki. It just fit him so well. Also that OP.

I've only watched anime for parts 1-3 and read manga for parts 4-6 so I'm not sure if Jonathan n Joseph would b so high if I just read manga but hey they are.

Jotaro is just classic. And I really enjoyed his daughter Jolyne and part 6 over all.

Giorgio is awesome and it's hard to put him at #5 but I just felt something was missing about him maybe needed some more char development? But part 5 was fun and his battle against diavolo and green day was awesome. Also dat gold experience requiem pose and 6 page muda muda muda muda wryyyyyy barrage -.-

Josuke is cool and all and has some hilarious lines (ah I feel refreshed. Like I just put on fresh underwear on New Year's Day). But he's def toward the bottom for me personality wise and character design wise (I agree w those who insult his hair). His highlights were his dice game vs Rohan and the highway star arc and of course the yoshikage Kira final battle.

Overall I've enjoyed the series overall and looking forward to parts 7 and 8 a lot.

Joseph without a doubt...I think he was the only reason I made it through the first season...I only enjoyed JoJo when he was the protagonist.
Joseph is THE JoJo in my eyes.

Josuke looks promising though, so we'll see.
I had an immediate dislike of Jotaro- I can't believe he's as popular as he is. I guess I've never been a fan of the strong, silent brooders, also I really wasn't comfortable with how casually he called his mother a bitch...was it meant to be funny? Does he ever stop doing it? I didn't stick around to find out.

For an order, I thind it would be like that :

1/ Jolyne
2/ Johnny
........
3/ Jotaro
4/ Joseph
5/ Josuke
6/ Jonathan
7/ Giorno

Damn, I never expected Joseph Joestar to break the poll. Anyways, here's my overall consensus. I don't exactly have a favorite JoJo, but my top 3 tend to be Jotaro, Johnny, and Josuke. I will explain my reasons why:

1. Jotaro Kujo, Johnny Joestar, & Josuke Higashikata

Jotaro Kujo is an odd choice. Normally, you wouldn't find him to be a decent protagonist, considering how he spent most of Part 3 being a delinquent and saying cool stuff like Columbo and Clint Eastwood would. However, as we progress in the later 3 parts, we see his dedication to protecting those he loves most, even to the extent of redeeming himself by being a father figure for Jolyne Cujoh. At the beginning of Part IV (yeah I know I jumped a bit, sorry), we see him lecturing Josuke on using his stand for good and the overall prospect of Part IV's theme, which is taking responsibility and participating with those you care about the most.

Johnny Joestar is also good because of how he develops overtime (pun somewhat intended). At first, we see him as being an arrogant and cocky kid, with his indigenous love for racing and his pride in being a selfish prick. However, after he is paralyzed from the waist down and falls under the tutelage of the Naples executioner, Gyro Zeppeli, we see him grow as a person who contemplates the true importance of winning and segregate his father's philosophy of winning as being number one.

Josuke Higashikata's dedication to protecting Morioh-Cho is one of the quintessential examples of being a true hero. Overtime, we learn that he takes his pride seriously, as seen in flashbacks of his hair origin and eventually his dedication to get the job done. He is also very funny, which is why I enjoy seeing him interact with and or fight other characters.

4. Joseph Joestar, despite being the quintessential JoJo with his hilarious asspulls in Part 2, falls short because he was reduced to puns such as "OH MY GOD" and "HORY SHEET." While this isn't a bad thing, it is a shame to see his potential squandered after being the insane badass that shot Tommy Guns in the streets and sent Gods to space to just the guy who wounds up being taken advantage of by almost everyone he fights. At least his fight with Daniel J. D'arby was pretty cool with the lesson on surface tension.

5. Jolyne comes up in 5th place. While her overall badass attitude is what makes the 6th part shine, she just seems boring to me.

6. Giorno, Jonathan, and Josuke (Gappy) are also boring as shit.

My current order:
Gappy>Johnny>Jolyne>Joseph>Giorno>Josuke>Jotaro>Jonathan

Gappy: He really is a... bizzarre character. Not only is his backstorymthe single most interesting in the entire series, but his character, niches, quirks and (imo) appearance put him above the rest. I'm confident he'll only improve with time. S&W is also boss.

Johnny: Watching him grow was one of my favourite parts of SBR. He goes from a neglected and tortured child, to an arrogant and haunted teen, to a depressed, disabled person to someone who could stand on his own feet. His story is beautiful.

Jolyne: she's Joseph and Jotaro. She also has a good character development arc.

Joseph: I don't even need to explain. He's only this low because of stiff competition.

Giorno: Pure JoJo fan service. He really is Dio if Dio were a good guy, and GE is a badass stand. We needed to see more of him, though.

Josuke: The insane hype for part 4 is what ruined it for me. He's like jotaro and Jonathan, but other jojo's outshine him.

Jotaro: he's stoic and placed his loved ones' lives before his own. Badass character, too,

Jonathan: Mary Sue.

Are you using Mary Sue as in nothing bad ever happens to him and the plot bends over backwards to ensure everything goes right for him, or in the sense that you don't like the character?
