The Nightmare Of Chinchi-rorin

The Nightmare of Chinchi-rorin

(Rohan's posture is loosely based on DIO's signiture pose)

I think my fave part of Golden Wind is when Giorno's just talking to someone in private. His talks with Polpo and that one conversation with Bucciarati in the car to Rome are hands down my favorite scenes in JJBA, I'm so dead serious. If Part 5 was a few chapters longer, I would've liked to just see Gio privately talk to Trish, Risotto, Diavolo, Doppio...Basically everyone, tbh.

Gio's kind of an opaque character with a lot happening beneath the hood. I know his "oooo son of Dio and Jonathan~" genes feel like a cheap gimmick, but it sets the context for how we engage with him. His motivations and intentions are ambiguous. Some people argue that he's a "bland mary sue who's always right," while others see him as a "cunning, power-hungry manipulator." He's "emotionless" yet "incredibly emotionally driven." Nothing is going on with him, and everything is going on with him. But his little conversations reveal so much even if they don't answer everything.

We don't even get the benefit we have with Jotaro, another super stoic protag, who appears in multiple parts which inform us more about him. Gio just appears in this one-off, mostly in the background, and that's it.

The English dub and manga translation couldn't even bother to keep his ridiculously formal speech pattern, and tries to.... make him sound hip? So that he's ""more interesting,"" I guess??

What a silly lil guy. A murderous gnc introvert. Serious lad who says and does the smartest stupidest things known to italians.

Convicts wearing actual jail uniforms, hair dyes are hard to find behind bars, and Jotaro is a 40 something Florida dad, among other things.

I’ve been drawing only Polnareff today…
