Jotaro Kujo is the protagonist of Part 3 of the manga JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, written by Hirohiko Araki.

Backstory[]

Jotaro Kujo is the grandson of Joseph Joestar, the previous JoJo's Bizarre Adventure protagonist. One day, Jotaro severely injured four gang members, which caused him to believe he was possessed by an evil spirit, since he'd never shown the amount of strength to do that before. After he turned himself to the police, his grandfather came and explained to him what was going on. DIO, the vampiric adoptive brother of Joseph's grandfather Jonathan Joestar, has reawakened and gained a Stand, a manifestation of his fighting spirit that he can summon, and since DIO's head is attached to Jonathan's body, the rest of the Joestar bloodline awakened Stands on their own. However, Jotaro's mother also awakened a Stand, which was slowly killing her due to her inability to control it, which is caused by her unwillingness to battle, and her gentle nature. This led to Jotaro, Joseph, and some other Stand users to travel to Egypt, defeat DIO, and save Jotaro's mother.
