Read more about Joseph Joestar at: Wikipedia Official Site: Jump is a fictional character created by Hirohiko Araki as the protagonist of part two, Battle Tendency, of the manga series JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, which debuted in 1987. He also plays a significant role in Parts 3 and 4. In his younger days, he had black hair and muscular build, but in his older age, he wears a hat and sports a yellow shirt and khaki pants. One of his hands is synthetic, a result of his fight with Kars. Joseph is also one of the oldest human characters to appear, along with Yoshikage's father. As a young man, Joseph is incredibly hotheaded, impetuous, and confrontational. He is not very serious or focused, and he tends to fool around. Despite his attitude, he is also very intelligent, defeating much more powerful opponents through clever tactics, and even able to accurately predict an enemy's next line (his catchphrase being "Your next line will be..." or "You're going to say...") However, over the course of Part 2, although he never really loses his overall attitude, he does develop into a strong, focused hero. At crucial moments of battles, he likes to predict the next sentence of his opponents. In Part 3, he is much the same, only as an irascible old man with a temper and the same mischievous spirit as in his younger days. However, being older, he is certainly more mature and serious. Joseph lives in New York with his grandmother Erina and seems to have inherited the power of , as he has a natural ability to use it. When old family friend Speedwagon is reported dead in Mexico, Joseph takes it on himself to go check it out. His curiosity is piqued when he is attacked in New York City by an old friend turned vampire. When he goes to Mexico he discovers a secret underground Nazi facility where the Nazis are trying to revive a man who seems to have been trapped in a stone pillar for 2,000 years. The Nazis are successful in awakening the man, who is christened "Santana" before he kills most of them. Joseph and Stroheim battle Santana and manage to defeat him, though Stroheim is fatally wounded. Joseph then heads to Rome, where three more "sleeping pillar men" have been discovered. Joseph meets Caesar Zeppeli, a trained hamon user near his age who is supposed to show Joseph the ropes. They find themselves present when the three sleeping men awaken after their 2,000 year nap. These creatures are something like vampire gods; it turns out that they created the stone mask that turned Dio Brando into a vampire. These three are named Whammu, Esidisi, and Kars, and their goal is to find the Red Stone of Aja, which, used with a stone mask, will allow them to become ultimate life forms.
Joseph Joestar has not been a contender in any CBUB matches.
