Hey you forgot to reply to my comment on your last video, it got a lot of upvotes
You should do video on Xenoblade villains.Zanza is like part 3 dio to me.
Should I cancel you for that Danny joke?
Kona Dia Da
@@milesedgeworth8683 sure
I think what makes Dio a great villain is that even tho he had a tragic childhood, he’s still an irredeemable, petty, charismatic monster. This dude tormented the joestars for generations. That’s a whole another level of pettiness
What strengthens it too is that we see Speedwagon, a man who grew up in similarly awful conditions, but after being shown mercy by Johnathan, was both a good man and ride or die for the Joestar family afterwards.
Edit - also to add onto that, if Dio wasn't such a monster, he could have easily had the good life. Johnathan held no malice towards Dio even as he died, and clearly wanted a good relationship with his adoptive brother.
The ultimate hater
I can fix him 🥵
And so petty that his girlfriend spun the block on his ops and his ops daughter
Yea so much this honestly I really miss it dont get me wrong I like a sympathetic villian but I'd rather they be the dragon to the main big bad, think the darth Vader to darth sidieous the lesser Villian can have that sympathetic arc and even redemption but some villians are just evil repulsive and I don't want to ever see them redeemed
The fact that Dio only ever calls Jonathan *Jojo* says a lot about how much he respected him.
And he never calls Joseph or Jotaro JoJo. For him, Jonathan is the true JoJo.
I always found that funny because when they first meet Jonathan brings up that his friends call him Jojo and Dio really just settles for that nickname.
Dio doesn't call Joseph or Jotaro by that nickname because that nickname isn't used for Joseph anymore and it gets dropped with Jotaro before the Crusaders reach Cairo. Still even if Jotaro and Joseph would have said their name was JoJo to him or of it was somehow brought up, I don't think he would use it with them. There is no personal relationship with either of them the way there was with Jonathan.
I always loved how shocked he sounds when Jonathan actually dies
Almost like he didn't actually want him dead
It's a bit like the joker and Batman
@@cyrus8886"what, no! You're too cool to die! Stop that!"
It's probably because he whooped his ass after the Erina thing.
Jonathan jumped a entire Fountain, I'd respect someone who did that just to beat my ass aswell.
It's hilarious to me that DIO gave Giorno's mom a signed photo of himself like he was an idol.
His name means god
i like to think he just hands them out to everyone he sleeps with lol
@@amborastalislmfao imagine you get to smash dio and he just hands you a photo and leaves dramatically
@alishialudecke7084 He wouldn't just hand it bro. He'd POSE as he does so. There is no way he wouldn't
@@skyrkazm1015 my god he's got to be doing the very same pose he does in the photo too
You thought it was a dumb villain but it was me DIO!
NICEEEE!
Yare yare daze...
DIOs Diary: day 99862 i just thought of something my PP is actually Jonathans PP and it's 14 inches long!
@@moyairock8743good joseph refrence my man
Yaro.... DIO
Something about his backstory I don't feel is brought up enough is there was one thing that showed there was a small spark of goodness in Dio...his mother. Dio makes it pretty clear above all he HATED his father for working his Mother to death, indicating that his Mother was likely the only person in the entire world Dio genuinely loved
Honestly that is probably the reason why Diego is an actually well adjusted individual
Relatively speaking of course
@@Sarah12471tru
I view it as Dio being fated to become a villain no matter the timeline(or at least oppose the Joestars) but his environment and upbringing dictates to what extreme.
It's in the second JOJO Magazine (the winter edition), in Araki's character sheet for Dio, that Dio hated his mother for being weak (maybe he resented her for not protecting him from Dario which really Dio's mom was just as much a victim as he was, but a child's mind often doesn't see that). That said he definitely did care for her because it did piss him off when Dario tells him to sell his mother's dress for booze and part of why he mentions he despises Dario is because he overworked his mother to death.
However caring about his mom doesn't mean he wasn't evil. Dio is very much capable of forming relationships and attachments while still being a bad guy. Pucci and Jonathan are proof that Dio can form bonds with people.
But it's like Araki said in the 2007 Eureka magazine interview: Dio cannot give all of his love to any person, and Dio's ambitions are what's most important to him. Meaning that in the long run Dio will sacrifice someone he cares about if it means it will further his own plans and ambitions. That's what really makes him evil.
@@Sarah12471 If you actually compare, deigo, dio, au diego, all three of them are similar, all of them did things so that the could achieve there goal, Diego fighting Valentine may make him look "good" but that's just because valentine was interrupting his goal of reaching the corpse, we were told what was right and wrong from Johnny and gyro's perspective which made us think that diego actually had a good side but it was all because of corpse, he was the same, from his perspective, he was doing good for his plan
And that's why I love Sbr, the characters are so great that even if they do something out of character you can easily understand how, the story was just the best
When your charisma stands out in jojo, where there's nothing but charismatic characters, you know Dio's something special.
To me, Dio is on par with Frieza on how to do irredeemable villains perfectly. He has such a massive presence, not only when he's on screen, but for the whole frnachise since without his actions, the series wouldn't be what it is today. However, whenever he's on screen, he's one of the most enjoyable characters to be ever be drawn to life thanks to his eccentric, bombastic aura coupled with his despicable actions.
because some guy looted a carriage, the universe got reset.
@@Ink_Fazkitty truly a jjba moment
Whenever DIOs not on screen, everyone should be asking "wheres DIO
Seconded
@@Ink_Fazkittytruly a bizarre thing
What makes me love DIO is that he is one of the few villians who bite matched his bark. He is so arrogant and prideful that it is admirable.
I like your video, but there's a reason Dio didn't use his vampiric abilities again, Jonathan's body was rejecting and limited him of his vampire abilities. The freezing involves moisture and wouldn't work with certain stands; Space Ripper Stingy Eyes expels his bodily fluids, and that would take out the blood he needs for control of Jonathan's body. Also, Dio became so confident in the World that he wouldn't care his other abilities.
I would also say it’s him testing out his stand, fighting against Jotaro and gang casually to see what he can be capable of
He definitely could have used his vampiric power after he absorbed Josephs blood, since Jonathan's body fully became his. After that, he probably just didn't use it because he was cocky.
Although, now I wondering why he didn't use Spacer ripper stingy eyes after when Jotaro injured his leg again lmao. Like yeah, he used his blood, but the laser eyes + the blood probably would have been better
@@nok4799 if you mean after Jotaro became able to stop time, well what is laser eyes gonna do to a manifestation of the fighting spirit that’s light speed and can’t be hurt by non stand attacks, along with being able to stop time (and can do it while Dio stops time). At that point no vampire ability was gonna save him
@@swordsman496 exactly, he wouldn't hit the stand, he'd aim for Jotaro which would either kill him, or give him an opening to attack
@@nok4799 that’s if A: the laser is faster than Star Platinum can react to get in the way of it or B: faster than Jotaro can activate his time stop with a thought, and for both cases Star Platinum is around light speed (from being able to keep up with Polnareff possessed by Anubis for a while, and even then I doubt the eye laser is anywhere near light speed) so that is unlikely to get past Star Platinum, and if Jotaro’s reaction isn’t as good as Star Platinum’s it’s still likely fast enough to react to pressurized water beams to activate time stop with a thought. At that point the eye lasers just weren’t a viable option when the laser is likely slower than Dio’s own stand, so he’s likely to not use the attack slower than his fastest option. Sorry for the long type I’m a nerd for this a bit.
While visiting my mom, we binged Jojo. After we finished everything, she said this: "Dio is what happens if you gave a Hood dude the charisma of an dictator, the evil of a Shakespearean villian and the mind and cunning of a chess player."
Cool mom
W mom
Poetic
Honestly, I love DIO, he was one of the reasons I got into Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, absolutely one of my favorite animes of all time.
Seriously, this dude got beef with not only Jonathan BUT HIS ENTIRE BLOODLINE!
Kono Dio Da!
Dio is the biggest slap on the face of people who say "evil because its evil dont work nowadays unless is for comedic effect(ex: jack horner) " and its not even a slap is an entire "muda" beatdown
True. Like even with Jack Horner I'd say it's more a matter of general charm; the "comedic effect" was more or less a vehicle for Horner's charm
Get what I'm saying?
Both Takehito Koyasu and Patrick Seltz give him such a big presence on screen and it's lovely.
Like Daisuke Ono was born to be Jotaro, a strong and determinated voice full of strength. The same was for Takehito for Dio, an evil, sheer, charismatic voice that represents power, ambition to conquer and destroy everything. What a good time to have this two be on the same period!
damn dio's presence was so big hes even in Super DragonBall Heroes (takehito koyasu also voices Hearts there)
@@cyberdemon6517
He's literally everywhere in a lot of seasonal anime, sometimes bad guys, sometimes good guys... and he still steal the show!
@@il3fortunato664He even voices Toji in Jujutsu Kaisen now
You can tell Takehito Koyasu and Patrick Seltz are having a lot of fun voicing DIO.
Also for the world's design, one of the songs sung by Ronnie James Dio, one of DIO's namesakes, is holy diver. Which perfectly describes the world's appearance. Also considering he was stuck in the ocean for 100 years, having some scuba gear might be like a safety blanket.
I mean “Holy diver, you’ve been down too long in the midnight sea…”
I'll never forgive Jonathan's final moments with Dio, truly a powerfull moment
you mean forget right XD
@@kingme1313 Both
What I got from Dio in parts 3 and 6, was that he was genially HAPPY!! He was able to live with more than just anger and make meaningful relationships. Of course, taking a note from Darth Bane, he was prepared to lose/kill all of them if needed without hesitation.
26:45
DIO embraced the culture he found himself in, you say?
I suppose that would make him a man of The World.
Actually, now that you bring it up, yeah; the fact Polnareff never found out, or at least never commented on, Giorno being Dio's kid was a serious missed opportunity. I could picture his wallet falling out of his pocket or something during the confusion of the Chariot Requiem body swap, with Polnareff taking note of it only to stop as the realization of the picture inside being Dio sets in.
I remember there being a fan comic a long while ago where that happens.
@@Mangakamen If you find it, can you send a link to it? That actually seems interesting.
I think that another villain that was done extremely well was Pucci, a normal person who through an encounter with Dio and the death of his sister becomes as much of a monster as Dio, even if it was slow at first. We see his entire path to villainy unfold right in front of our eyes, with him not even realizing what he is doing is wrong. As we saw with his fight with Weather report and Emporio, he thinks that he is righteous and saving humanity by following Dio's path, eventually becoming like him to the point of using the same tricks that Dio would use to overcome the Joestars, and even succeeding at his goal for a short period of time, but by underestimating Emporio and fate, ends up falling in the same way that dio once did.
also KONODIO DA
I love how much more Pucci becomes like DIO after fusing with the green baby. He becomes way more arrogant and manipulative and condescending and all the traits of himself that he expressed only through White Snake now openly become part of his human personality.
@@emblemblade9245 he even goes on to mock jotaro right before killing him much like dio, while before when he still had ws he almost immediately took jotaro's disc.
One thing that doesn't get discussed enough, if at all:
Did Dio know about the Pillar Men?
He was completely absent in Part 2, but did he ever learn about the events of Part 2 after awakening from the ocean? He had plenty of time to, but that information is pretty much exclusive to select members of the Joestar family itself, Smokey Brown could've been a source of information, but that's counting on whether he'd even be able to learn that Smokey was Joseph's friend.
Probably not, and I believe that if he knew he would try to become the Perfect Life Form, just in case that helps him achieve Heaven(or just to become imune to the Sun idk)
@@gustavosauro1882 There was only 1 Perfect Aja though, and that got destroyed, so even if he knew, he'd know that becoming the Perfect Lifeform is no longer possible.
@@Cri_Jackal yeah there's that. Plus, it's possible that only the Pillar Men are capable of achieving perfection
Who knows, IIRC the whole Pillar Men stuff is not known to the general public and it's possible that the Speedwagon Foundation covered the whole Pillar Men events up. We know from Part 4 and Stone Ocean that Dio traveled around and kept up with current events. With Joseph being a well known real estate mogul I'm sure Dio heard of him enough for his curiosity to be piqued and do his own research on Jonathan's grandson.
Whether he managed to find about the Pillar Men is a mystery but even then with them defeated and Stands being the new power I don't think he would care that much anyway.
DIO is probably my favourite villain not only in Jojo but in all fiction. He is just what I look for in a villain narssasistic, powerful, uncaring to almost everyone and the way his shadow looms over the parts he’s not even in (even part 2 to a degree) shows how much influence he has over the world of Jojo he has.
Along side that one thing I really like is how his name changes between parts 1 and 3. In part one it was Dio Brando but in part 3 it was just DIO showing off how he got a sort of god complex after his time in the ocean and dropping his last name because that part of his life doesn’t control him anymore.
May I introduce you to: Griffith (from berserk)
@@ShiningAndStarstruck Honestly, Griffith is one of the most detestable characters in existence, and I love to hate him for it. He built a cult following around him in an attempt to become a nobleman, has a complete breakdown the moment one man questions his authority and decides to live an independent life, and blames Gut's eternally for his full breakdown. There's more to it than that, but the fact that he was always a deeply self-serving person that couldn't cope when encountering serious adversity was really instrumental in building up an absolute bastard.
I don't really feel the same way about Dio. Sure, he's an effective villain, a fantastic part 1 antagonist but I don't feel as strongly about him. This is perhaps the point, by part 3 he really was a man out of time and didn't have a personal investment against the Joestars, but rather bore a grudge against their family spirit in general. This actually works; Jotaro hated Dio, but he isn't quite up there with Griff, who literally sold out all his followers without any remorse just so he could take what Gutts had and violated it out of spite, literally the worst character that I love to hate in my mind. Dio is just a fun time all round, aside from Danny...
@@lordbiscuitthetossable5352Johan liebert is in the conversation for detestable characters
If you can even call johan human
Johan is like a soulless being like a dementor almost the way he goes around ruining lives for no good reason and not even caring
@@allaboutthemurzic if it’s from the new part I haven’t started reading that yet. The name just isn’t connecting for me. I’ll take your word for it, as Johnny in part 7 starts off similarly bitter, just his actions Are constrained to a highly brutal/competitive section.
Fun fact, although the in universe explanation for its diver gear is so it can breath in stopped time, the design reason is because the world is based on the song Holy Diver by DIO (the band)
This means... The World is a Vampire, and The World is a HOLY DIVER!
Kono KAMEN DA!

remember dio originally had a iconic mark not the joestars, until araki gave the joestars the star and never mentioned the 3 dots devils luck symbol again.
Fun fact: Araki said in a character panel describing Jotaro that he is not purposely disclosing his emotions, simply that he just thinks other people (those that matter) can just see it.
As a massive fan of Blade Runner, I was honestly surprised that Dio's appearance took inspiration from Roy.
KONO DIO DA!
Now that a friend actually got me into JoJo I have a shit ton of respect for Hirohiko Araki. Dio, Kars, DIO and Yoshikage Kira are some of the most entertaining bastards I’ve seen. Also we gotta remember. KONO DIO DA!
Dio’s dad Dario was the early influencer of his evil! His influence stayed with Dio even while living with the Joestars who tried to make him feel as welcome as can be!
But Dio was all about becoming dominant and on top; using any trick and anyone he could to get to the top! You can thank Daddy Dario for starting him on this path!
I think DIO's past is similar to Voldemort's in one regard: the impact that the lack of a mother figure has. J. K. Rowling said that had Tom's mother raised him, he would have turned out to be very different, and I honestly see that DIO would have been the same. Keep it in mind that DIO, for all his flaws, loved his mother, as he was infuriated that Dario not only made her work until she died, but even sold her dress in order to buy alcohol.
Rowling also said that before plumbing wizards would just shit in the middle of the hallway and magic it away.
So I doubt she put much thought into that statement.
Is that what Diego Brando supposed to be?
She also blamed the rape victim for making Voldemort who he is because said victim ran away when he was no longer being drugged.
Meet Diego
Diego is a Dio abandoned by his father, but not his mother. He was actually a well adjusted child until in an act of pride-filled defiance against a man, Diego's mother burns herself to feed him to instill this sense of pride/self-preservation. Losing her afterwards, Diego was filled with a hunger for more, and a rage against the cruel world.
A video about DIO (one of my personal favorite Villains in Shonen second only to Frieza)? Awesome!
Also, Kono DIO DA!
A viDIO if you will
If we wanna talk about depth with Dio, Over Heaven just gives such an interesting look into his psychology. As much as he claims to despise the saintly woman his mother was as he describes her, almost all of his actions are ironically dictated by his mother's influence on her in a way that it's possible he could've been a better person if not for his father. She planted the idea of "Heaven" in his head, she's the one the got him the education he used to earn money, she taught him how utterly "idiotic" people with morality like her were as he grew to resent her goodness that was often taken advantage of, and he inevitably wants to make "Heaven" a reality to prove whether or not she was correct. Even him finally killing his father was only because he sold his mother's only dress for alcohol, which removed any possibility in Dio's mind that Dario could change. It can even be said this last part is what set Dio's worldview fully in place, as the fact a part of him hoped Dario could change was the final line to the goodness his mother tried to impart.
I like Over Heaven, if that isn't obvious.
Over Heaven kicks ass. The second to last chapter, where he realized Erina saved him, gave me chills
Have you seen the anime Monster?
The main antagonist Johan Liebert is arguably the single greatest villain in not only anime and manga but fiction in general. He definitely deserves a video of his own.
The scariest part of Johan is the fact that he is... human. The plot of Monster occurs in the real world: no magic, no superpowers, no other races, no evil beings that lie in the shadows and corrupt others, etc. And yet Johan is a villain that is more threatening than several villains that live in universes that have those things.
Kono Dio da!!
WRyYyyyYYyyYYyyy...
Great video man, and yes Dio has an incredible amount of depth, and most of the time people don't actually talk much about it.. Geez so many animes have just flat and one dimensional characters easily forgotten, while Dio not just affected all parts of this series, the future events, all reality of that world, but also many other stories.
He has simple goes, but was not made poorly, is not because someone has simple to understand actions, and not the most original motivations that everything about him is empty. He has a lot going on him, on personality, charisma, powers, ideals, story, motivations, and his own view of his entire reality...
And you made a great job explaining everything...
I kinda hate when people say that Jojo is just a random shonen anime with weird fights and just weird looks, but nothing more, Araki put a lot of effort thought and studies to create it, it may not be the most complex story, not the most rich in world building and w/e, but this piece of work was made with much effort, care, and love.
Is such a great show, it's not meant to be political or informative, or so profound, but not every art is made to be, doesn't mean it was made to be a generic trash like some try to belive it.
I love Jojo's Bizarre Adventure a lot!
I feel like what makes Dio so good is his Clash with Jonathan.
Jonathan is the only person that he knows had the resolve to try to stop him and could do so, theres a reason he emphasizes taking his body after part 1.
He respects Jonathan, while also hating everything about him.
That and Jonathan fed him the hands and jumped a fountain, id respect him too if that happened to me.
Dio and yami marik are two unforgettable villains that you tent to love to hate jest being how evil they are
17:12, just to explain rq. This is because something attaining to Jonathan’s body is preventing him from accessing every single ability he had as a full vampire. Dampening his strength, body manipulation, and hyper healing. After he goes full vampire in the end of part 3, he obviously gets this stuff back but decides at that point that he is much stronger than jotaro and doesn’t need eye beams or to freeze his whole body. He still lost though because he made the same mistakes he did in part one. And they are that he got too cocky and thought he was destined to win, holding back and just testing his limits only to crumble to the same bloodline a few generations down the line
There actually is a canon reason why Dio doesn’t use his vampire abilities, he still didn’t have full control over Johnathan’s body, which is why his left side healed slower
Konto dio da and whatnot.
Amazing video, great analysis. Keep up the good work, looking forward to seeing more from you!
Damn, fantastic content man. Earned this sub, enjoy it
Too scared to make a typo so here it is in English, "It was me, Dio!"
Kono Dio da! This was a good video and introspect on Dio. That said I would argue Jonathan while the less complex of the Jojos wasn't boring but I'll refrain from text vomiting in this comment section.
I appreciate villains like Dio. Sometimes, we just need assholes who are simply assholes regardless of backstory. Too often, especially nowadays, there are attempts to make villains tragic for the sake of redemption or to feel bad for them. Almost as if the writer(s) have a thing for tragic villains and view criminals as misunderstood angels (which is either delusion, disturbing, or a fetish of theirs). Dio was never meant to be redeemed nor for us to feel sorry for. We can understand him, but he does so much harm that we want to see him stopped. A proper sympathetic villain would be like Mr. Freeze from Batman TAS. Not characters like Cinder from RWBY or The Sorceress from MotU. (Maybe sympathetic villains can be a topic for a video.)
Kono Dio da!
bro loving the appreciation shown at DIO, thanks for this video. He's one of my favorites.
Kono dio da! Thank you for another awesome vid man. I appreciate your time and effort in making these kick ass vids 😄
KONO DIO DA!
Another great vid Kamen!
Kono Rosa Da! just wanted to say that i really enjoy your videos on characters.
your voice is also really nice-imeanwha-
Great video!
Great, video. Can't bring myself to say the infamous qoute however.
i js know this one will be a banger as always
I enjoy long videos like this and in general like these sorts of character breakdowns. Always a pleasure to sit through.
Cono Dio da. (I'm hoping i spelled that right)
Another great video Kamen. Ever thought about doing something like ranking characters from different video games or series? Curious what your favorite persona characters or kamen rider series.
Nice use of Duelist of the roses OST fits well with this
good video! gave actual facts about DIO as a villain and why he's so good, btw, Kono dio da!
I happen to have a weak spot for "Ryo villians" or basically villians who suround they entire life by the hero of the story. For example Ryo from Devilman, Griffith from Berserk and obliviously Dio. A Villian that has this genuine need of appriciation by the hero is really intresting especially when we see them fail in the end and get what they deserved. Altrought for Dio and Johnathan it was only one scene it still make a really big impact on the whole of the character.
(Sorry for my bad english as it's not my first language)
Nah, I understood pretty well :)
Great video.
I recommend that you check out over heaven, a novel written by the author of monogatari that delves into Dio's past and why he's obsessed with heaven so much
Excellent video! Another thing I really like about DIO is that the sources of power he draws on, being vampirism and stands, are essentially stolen from other powerful villains in the series. The stone masks were created by Kars to evolve himself and his people into superior beings to live without fear or limitation, and DIO took that power for himself when it was never intended for a lowly human such as him. On the stand side of things, Diavolo's discovery of the stand arrows that were eventually passed to Enya and then DIO was also a stroke of fate that DIO took full advantage of. (Now that I think about it, this stroke of fate from Diavolo fits even better with DIO's character considering the three moles on his ear are a sign of "the devil's luck" shining on him!) It's just so in-character for DIO to take power from others and make it his own to conquer the world.
Ya Dio is what makes a great villain, so many villains get back stories these days to explain the way they are that it's refreshing to see villains like Dio still around.
Will this be the start of A Video Series about Villains done Right? If so, I can‘t wait for the next video
This is actually the sequel to the Yoshikage kira one - And if this video gets big, I would love to expand into other characters - Someone suggested DoFlamigo.
I'm pretty sure the actual reason The World has oxygen tanks on its back is because its design is based off the song _Holy Diver._
Thanks for tha video
Kono Dio da!
Great video and greetings from Venezuela
KONO DIO DA!
Also something about how much toast you've eaten or something.
Oh, i absolutely NEED that Funny Valentine video. also KONO DIO DA!
Happy Birthday
17:53 Actually in JOJO A-GO!GO! Araki did actually confirm that that is Jonathan’s Stand.
Kono Dio da, great video man
Zepplli: how many victims how you killed to heal your wounds
Dio: How many bread have you eaten in you life?
The gaslighting words from a psychopath.
that was a great video, also KONO DIO DAA
KONO DIO DA.
Your videos are always super interesting and while I did already gather most of this myself, seeing somewhat lay out it out in an easy to digest manner is quite nice
DIO introduced me to heavy metal and Holy Diver just slaps
I love that song
Johnathan was the Holy Diver of this story.
Will you do the same thing u did with Kira and Dio with Divolo?
That'd be cool
Another great part of DIO's portrayal in P3 is the philosophical conversations he has with Enya, like how he believes the meaning of his life is to conquer his fears. It's a small portion of the depths of thought he had at the bottom of the ocean, but it's a heck of a turn from the screaming freak show you're used to after watching part 1. Also, KONO DIO DA!!!
Kono Dio da !
Very great video, keep going, bro!
Thanks! Will do!
You thought this was MangaKamen video but this was actually ME a Dio video!!!
epic video
Always love a DIO appreciation post. But the music from Yu-Gi-Oh: Duelist of the Roses? 👨🍳😘
what makes DIO a great villain to ME is simple. they built the HYPE and then DELIVERED on the HYPE. thats what matters most to me. You say the villain is this "dangerous" now you must deliver on it. And DIO does so.
Kono Dio Da! Also I really enjoy your videos, and they brighten up my day whenever I watch them…
P.s. WRRRRRRRRRRRRRY!
Oh, a good upload??? Subbbed
"*Kono DIO da!*"
loved the video, keep up the great work dude
The eyes of heaven music at the start 😩
This is my first time watching a video 30 minutes long and actually listening to it.
Well, I hope you enjoyed it.
KONO DIO DA!
I wish I had something insightful to add. I'll just put this to boost the algorithm.
great video man, i was looking for insipration on how to write interesting and threatning villain, your videos show me the aspects that i need to think about to achieve this.
Johnathan's stand is just called Johnathan's stand by the way
21:08 ♪He tried to kill me with a steamroller! ¡Ole!♪
Kono Dio Da WRYYYYYYYYY! Great analysis.
21:30 When it comes to the design of The World, Araki stated that The World was designed to look like a scuba diver.
The tanks on his back are oxygen tanks and are connected with cables up into the mask. He looks somewhat robotic and artificial because Araki wanted Dio's stand to contrast Jotaro's: a guardian spirit, something often concidered in cultures as a natural part of our world.
As for why a scuba diver? I'm just going to remind you that between part 1 and 3, Dio spent around 100 years locked in a coffin at the ocean floor.
....And knowing þe musical references sprinkled around, its basically Holy Diver.
100% true. Again people forget the meanings of the names themselves. DIO in Italian means GOD, Diavolo is Devil and Giorno is Son of God. So God Spending 100 years buried in the ocean would make him the Holiest of Divers
Dio most relatable villain fr if you really read into his story
KONO DIO DA!! but tbh a lot of ppl commented this without even making it to the end of the video bc funny meme hehe but anyways great vid, dio is truly an incredible villain
You too enjoy Therussianbadger, excellent.
a thing that you can also see in dio wanting power were the creatures he spliced. Shown in one of scenes you put up, he spliced a cat with a bird...a bird is typically considered a free or a representation of freedom in story telling cause they can fly and go anywhere they want. Felines are considered powerful or strong due to a cats ability as a hunter: night vision, fast reflexes, sharp claws AND fangs, and for the most part, they hunt alone. put those two aspects together and its like a representation of Dio. Powerful and free.
"KONO DIO DA!"
Great video MangaKamen. I hope to one day write a villain as deadly, calculated, and evil as Dio Brando: One of my favorite villains in all of fiction.
Você pensou que este seria algum comentário inteligente, mas era eu DIO.
Well, I appreciate it.
What makes Dio and Pucci's conversations so interesting as we know Dio is a master manipulator. That he is wildly charismatic to get so many devoted, like die for you devoted followers in a short amount of time without having to always brainwash them like he did with Kakyoin and Polnareff. We know this but in the past we rarely see it in depth. People point to Pucci and Dio has having a connection but from what we know of Dio so much of it feels like manipulation and knowing what topics that could play into Pucci's strengths come in to drive Pucci into wanting to follow/execute Dio's goals. Dio gains power by assimimilating in a sense to what people want to see him as and uses those factors to gain loyality. We had seen parts of this all the way back in 1 when he was a human. Dio knows that Pucci is religious meaning using heaven and topics already is going to appeal to aspects of his belief, he knows Pucci is smart and can talk to him in a way that has rebuttles, he believes that out of the people he has saught only Pucci could carry out the plan thus manipulating him into the same kind of person he is. Dio used Pucci, we just get a much deeper look into how Dio gains this trust and godlike devotion.
KONO DIO DA ‼️⁉️
Really kamen
I thoungt the tanks on za warudo’s back were refrence to the song ”dio - holy diver” cuz u know diving tanks
I fcking love DIO his charachter and everything
You thought it was just another Dio analysis, but it's from MangaKamen Oh-Ho also ROAD ROLLA baby
Just a heads up (hehe, head): DIO's vampiric abilities did not disappear after his slumber, but because he was now inhabiting Jonathan's body (which was full of Hamon energy) they were severely nerfed.
