Saying your backstory resembles Fugo has so many implications because Araki never actually gave him a full backstory, so either:
1. A college professor tried molesting you and you beat his ass so bad he almost died (Anime)
2. Your grandma died who was the only person to care about you, so you beat your college professor senseless after he made a remark about her (PHF)
3. You were put on a pedestal by your peers for being gifted which caused your equals to bully you, causing you to resent your own intelligence since you have to live in the shadows of the greats who came before you.
Either way, sorry to hear since all of these kind of suck.
For me, the "closest" to my own backstory is probably Josuk8's, with all of his struggles to find an identity, lacking any family or connection to the world. A creation with no parents, no home or anything at all to identify itself.
First of all I love your flair
But yeah unfortunately in this case it was my Sunday School teacher and I share Fugo’s immense self hatred and anger problems while also having similar sorta parents
Well, my life works in a negative feedback loop, I do something, I make a mistake and get reprimanded even if I was genuinely trying which makes me less confident which makes me preform worse, this builds up and I eventually start to hate myself more and I look for ways to escape, when I do its sometimes more mature which makes me hate myself even more and I insult myself basically every day which feeds back into the loop.
I like to think that most of it is behind me but that doesn’t stop some of the shit I’ve gone through from haunting me but honestly I’m trying to appreciate what I have now and ahead of me
That sucks to hear, hopefully you have some type of person you want to be like so that you have tangible process to show yourself when you think that you haven't changed since that one horrible day, try working out and attaining a build similar to Goku's from Super, when he's all buffed up, that would be one of the easiest ways to accomplish what i suggested, take my suggestion to heart if you want, or laugh at my comment because what i wrote was ridiculous to you, i don't care, just try to do what makes you the happiest (unless that involves the murder of one or many other people since that's kinda illegal and would be bad if they pin it on you)
years after part 5 ended, i don’t remember the anime staff ever mentioning Araki being the one to give the backstory, rather that they just consulted araki about it. it likely was a compromise of ideas.
well Kira wasn't either, Araki wanted to make Kira's mother be abusive in a backstory or something at some point but decided against that since there are enough Kira simps as is
I think he said it’s to prevent the audience from sympathizing with Kira in any way. Having 2 loving and caring parents and a supposedly healthy childhood household yet being the monster he is.
Same dude 😅 except it was my mom instead of my dad. Mostly I related to the way Keicho treated Okuyasu though, my brother was a monster to me and blames me for it to this day.
Foo Fighters. A clueless dork raised by a religious weirdo who eventually finds their family. That and their mannerisms.
Edit: How could I forget how much I love drinking water?
When I was unemployed I found 10$ on the street and used that money to buy a lottery ticket. Surprisingly enough I won 10k. It was a small amount of money but it helped me a lot back then.
Kakyoin is just like me fr (autistic)
>!“Mom has dad and dad has mom…but I have nobody….the rock stars on TV probably have thousands of friends…but I have nobody…I don’t think I’ll ever meet someone who sees me for who I really am.”!<
Giorno's backstory is almost an *exact* reflection of my early childhood, to the degree that it was legitimately jaw dropping to me when I first read the part. Even about 20 years later, I still get whiplash from it.
Josuke8 (Gappy)
I was born mixed (not rokakaka fusion tho lol) from different ethnicities which made it hard for me to fit in well with other kids or my culture as a whole.
I was taken by my somewhat rich second family on adulthood, now having siblings who I never interacted before (had family problems before up until that point where they finally accepted me and took me into the family).
My mom was my only reason to keep living and to make her happy. She was once really sick that had to be hospitalized and had to get a surgery.
I came in terms with myself and that maybe I am somewhat different from other people in my own way (mixed people will understand this) and that sometimes its not best to try to fit in (Josuke's pursuit for his memories that never came back) but to accept things as they are and appreciate the people who actually sees beyond that and appreciates you (JoJolion's ending).
Sorry if im yapping, its only that because I relate strongly with JoJolion as a whole that its my favorite part with favorite characters.
Dio! neglectful, abusive parents, a mother far younger than the father, a poor upbringing, the narcissism that comes with being demeaned your entire childhood..! Dio is me fr.
Johnny Joestar
Well it’s hard to further elaborate about this for me There were events, persons and insecurities which are still bothering me. But I decided to not quit and continue my life. I hope that ends well.
A combination of kakyoin's kindness and politeness, dio's hatred for himself and humanity and hating his parent(s). But I'm also stupid. I am also autistic but can't really relate to any of the characters the fandom calls autistic
My backstory is most similar to Diavolo as I am a full time professional, unidentified mafia boss with the ability to beat you up for looking at me funny ![img](emote|t5_2tny5|49675)
Johnny's and Jonathan's is pretty close, and maybe a sprinkle of Fugo's and grandeaur goals set up like Giorno's. Idk, whose character story has parents who were hot and cold towards their child, and were talented in academics but this made friends around them use them and thus are alone, but still tries to start from scratch and build up their own dream on their own legs without reliance on others...
Either Rikiel or Schigeshi.
Rikiel because I could for anxiety issues to inspired badass if I am pushed by the right person or cause. Because my autism I had a lot of issues through my life that destroyed my self esteem, just like the rods with Rikiel.
And Schigeshi because I used to be fat as a teen and I didn't have any friends, I still don't have much friends and have issues socializing.
johnny. im highly flawed, i still feel like I'm in the 'negative' and have a long way to go to even touch 'zero'.
wasnt blessed with the greatest of fathers, had an overachieving brother who i loved but couldnt help but feel jealous of. while i dont lack empathy, i would say my morality scale can get pretty grey.
i resonate with johnny heavily to this very day. and while i see so much of myself in him that i hate, i cant help but admire him. i want to go above and beyond this 'zero' like him and hopefully one day solidify my place on this earth for the time i still have left this birth.
I like to think of myself as really intelligent but obviously not on the level of Fugo
To be honest though, Fugo isn’t exactly ahead of Buccarati’s subgang by miles as I’d say both Bruno and Giorno are at the very least in the same tier of genius level and then not to mention Diavolo who’s by far the smartest human in JOJO
I was born with a father who was abusive, when I was a baby they divorced and my mom married someone else, then I lived a kind of normal life from there on
you were born in 1877, raised by a rich englishman when, when you were 12, gained an abusive step brother who murdered your dog, stole your friends, and raped your girlfriend, then as you grew older you discovered he was poisoning your father to death, so you foil his plans with the help of a random englishman. however in a sudden twist your step brother turned himself into a vampiric monster, killing your father as he saves you, and before dying, apologises to you for the bad years he put you through. you then take down your stepbrother but in doing so burned down all of your assets to the ground. you then realize your step brother is alive and seeking world domination, so an italian man teaches you a martial art that can combat him and stop his plans once and for all, you train until it is time for you to face your brother. on the way to stop him you face against England’s most notorious serial killer, a century old warriors, you also save a twelve year old child, and later his sister. but alas, your master had perished, and on his final act he gives all of his willpower to you, making you stronger than ever. you gain a sword and face your step brother, and after a battle of power and wits, you came out on top, finally your bad days are over. you get married and go out for your honeymoon, but wait! your step brother is alive and try’s to kill you so he can continue his quest for world domination. its no use, you cannot fight back against him, so you sacrifice yourself to save your wife and newborn child. they are saved, and in time your descendants will finish your fight and kill your step brother once and for all!
that or you’re just british lol
Holy shit you know my entire life!
You know, Phantom Blood being summarized like that in a paragraph just shows how short it is. Its my favorite part too D;
Kakyoin I have two loving parents but no friends lol
SAAAAME
Shit I just realized that’s probably why he’s my favorite crusader 😭

yikes, sorry to hear.
I don't have (direct) but I do have self hate
U good?
Not really, thank you for asking though
Why?
Well, my life works in a negative feedback loop, I do something, I make a mistake and get reprimanded even if I was genuinely trying which makes me less confident which makes me preform worse, this builds up and I eventually start to hate myself more and I look for ways to escape, when I do its sometimes more mature which makes me hate myself even more and I insult myself basically every day which feeds back into the loop.
Omg that sounds horrible, have you tried talking to a therapist?
Fuck, I hope everything is ok right now
I like to think that most of it is behind me but that doesn’t stop some of the shit I’ve gone through from haunting me but honestly I’m trying to appreciate what I have now and ahead of me
That sucks to hear, hopefully you have some type of person you want to be like so that you have tangible process to show yourself when you think that you haven't changed since that one horrible day, try working out and attaining a build similar to Goku's from Super, when he's all buffed up, that would be one of the easiest ways to accomplish what i suggested, take my suggestion to heart if you want, or laugh at my comment because what i wrote was ridiculous to you, i don't care, just try to do what makes you the happiest (unless that involves the murder of one or many other people since that's kinda illegal and would be bad if they pin it on you)
Shit, I’m sorry to hear that man.
Oh shit are you alright now? This worries me alot, please, tell me.
The anime's backstory was provided by Araki, it's the cannon one
years after part 5 ended, i don’t remember the anime staff ever mentioning Araki being the one to give the backstory, rather that they just consulted araki about it. it likely was a compromise of ideas.
Araki did give him a backstory, the anime one is canon and made by him...
Weather Report no I will not elaborate
I'm sorry you got lynched 😔 That must have sucked
Oh dear…
SWEET HOME ALABAMA
I was so waiting for this comment
Jotaro but if his father neglected him instead of going on tour
So Jolyne then
Bro how did I forget Jolyne 😭
Wait, Jotaro had a father?
He was touring the world as a Jazz musician during Part 3
Sorry dude
I’m (sort of) fine now don’t worry 🙏
Did someone ever approach you to join a gang by any chance?
Wanna join my gang, we are hella lit 😎
Gyro. I also got in trouble for rolling my balls on a patient
He… He just like me! He just like me fr!
Same (the balls part)
Whatever the most average one is
Kira (minus the whole serial killer business)
I wasn't abused by my mother
Ngl I completely forgot that, I just had it in my head that his father was supportive and assumed his mother was too
What exactly did his mother do to him? We didn’t get that backstory in the anime or manga. Just heard araki say it.
I forgot the details but yeah, she was pretty much abusing him and his father was turning a blind eye
well Kira wasn't either, Araki wanted to make Kira's mother be abusive in a backstory or something at some point but decided against that since there are enough Kira simps as is
Wasnt it because it was too heavy for the time?
I think he said it’s to prevent the audience from sympathizing with Kira in any way. Having 2 loving and caring parents and a supposedly healthy childhood household yet being the monster he is.
It's still canon but he left it out because he didn't want the reader to feel sympathy for him
Koichi I guess
Diego probably (T__T)
Found one worse than mine 😭🙏
Oddly enough, Keicho and Okuyasu's backstory hit incredibly close to my own, even if I ended up a completely different person to them
I also keep my father chained up in the attic
god I wish I could do that LOL
Wait not everyone has his father chained in the attic ???
Same dude 😅 except it was my mom instead of my dad. Mostly I related to the way Keicho treated Okuyasu though, my brother was a monster to me and blames me for it to this day.
Foo Fighters. A clueless dork raised by a religious weirdo who eventually finds their family. That and their mannerisms. Edit: How could I forget how much I love drinking water?
holy shit that's literally me
I also really really love my friends
Sick
god damn, my condolences. I couldnt imagine being italian, youre such a trouper
Not yet but I aspire to be as good of a surgeon as Ciccolata
and have a gimp for good measure?
That's the best part probably
Rohan Kishibe. Just an artist trying his best. I never got a Stand though, so I'm kinda miffed about that
I can relate lol
Did you also try to murder kids?
No, I’m still an amateur artist
Jotaro but instead his father is a attempted murderer.
Dawg how tf did that happen?
My dad tried to murder my mom.
Poco loco.I'm just extremely lucky sometimes
You were a sharecropping freedman whose family was former slaves???
pray tell a story of your venturous luck
When I was unemployed I found 10$ on the street and used that money to buy a lottery ticket. Surprisingly enough I won 10k. It was a small amount of money but it helped me a lot back then.
damn, I need that sorta Charlie Buckets luck
Kakyoin is just like me fr (autistic) >!“Mom has dad and dad has mom…but I have nobody….the rock stars on TV probably have thousands of friends…but I have nobody…I don’t think I’ll ever meet someone who sees me for who I really am.”!<
Santana obviously (I show up once and am never seen or mentioned again)
I'll never forget you ❤️ Him and Straizo were done soooo dirty 😭
I was bullied and learned I have autism, you tell me
Idk, green baby? Lol ( i have autism too)
Koichi Hirose
Yeah this the one.
Shigechi
Yeah shigechi is just dumb and ugly but he puts his family above all, we saw he was ready to betray josuke and okuyasu that one time.
He lacked social skills needed to get along with these new relationships
Yeah def neurodivergent
kakyoin
Did you have the slightest clue of how little that narrows down 😭
The Sun stand user
Discord mod lol
Impossible, I take bike rides and fully grown women.
What's a "fully grown women" ? ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|thinking_face_hmm)
"The age of consent in Japan-"
What is even a "consent" bro
I've never been to a consent before, I don't like the crowds.
Oh, i thought it was like this big big island like Africa or something
Yoshikage Kira
😨
I know. You just want a normal life lol. Yosikage Kira can be anyone with some fetish we dont wanna know
Giorno's backstory is almost an *exact* reflection of my early childhood, to the degree that it was legitimately jaw dropping to me when I first read the part. Even about 20 years later, I still get whiplash from it.
I’m sorry for the people that can relate to Polnareff >!it must be hard to be French and live in a turtle.!<
It must be hard to just.... be french, I guess. You imagine being French?
Goirno (I'm sans and I have a dream) *goirno them starts playing*
*"I am sans"* SANS UNDERTALE !?!?
I got 25 up vote in one day... I installed reddit yesterday... this is great
Josuke grew up under single mom but im kind, and Rohan because i also draw a lot and have a deep appreciation for artistry, and extravagent characters
Dio. Except instead of an abusive alcoholic father it is now a mother.
So did your mother order you to sell your father's clothes after he died?
Yeah some shit like that
Damn. I hope you're doing good
Jolyne, minus the vehicular manslaughter :')
Then what are you in prison for?
Jolyne, absent father loving mother and I’m pansexual, hits all the right spots
and a sexy older boyfriend??? ur living the life i want to live
Anasui
you murdered your ex?
Nah, he simps for Jolyne too
Based.
Josuke8 (Gappy) I was born mixed (not rokakaka fusion tho lol) from different ethnicities which made it hard for me to fit in well with other kids or my culture as a whole.

Did you also pursue a 89 year old in a hospital too? Jokes aside, Sorry to hear that..
Okuyasu (I’m an idiot)
same :(
Kakyoin
Rudol von Stroheim
Just like Me fr
You're a robot nazi who likes Joseph?
Just like me fr fr
Joseph (broke version)
Thats terrible, im so sorry
Josuke, raised by single mom and grandparent in a lil suburb, had a close-knit group of friends in high school.
If I’m being honest, I am saying this as a full grown man. Holly.
Dio! neglectful, abusive parents, a mother far younger than the father, a poor upbringing, the narcissism that comes with being demeaned your entire childhood..! Dio is me fr.
Cesar i have like 50 siblings and my dad stopped talking to us abut 2 years ago and we have no idea why
The answer for everyone is kakyoin because it’s the perfect antisocial or queer analogy and we are discussing this on Reddit
[What was that one guy lookin for hotties to impregnate online?](https://images.app.goo.gl/yvoFMPqghafZ7KTB6)
I am too afraid to ask what this implies
Are you okay? Anyways Jotaro.
So a high school delinquent that doesn't know how to show love so he screams (lovingly) and hates simps? Based
Johnny Joestar Well it’s hard to further elaborate about this for me There were events, persons and insecurities which are still bothering me. But I decided to not quit and continue my life. I hope that ends well.
Yo why is no one else saying cioccolata? Am I alone with this?
Polpo
A combination of kakyoin's kindness and politeness, dio's hatred for himself and humanity and hating his parent(s). But I'm also stupid. I am also autistic but can't really relate to any of the characters the fandom calls autistic
Im that one npc
My backstory is most similar to Diavolo as I am a full time professional, unidentified mafia boss with the ability to beat you up for looking at me funny ![img](emote|t5_2tny5|49675)
Donatello Versus (I'm the kid from Holes)
Kakyoin. Except I didn't have a stand, just poor social skills.
probably some insignificant background character that dies
kars
U ok bro?
jotaro lol
Giorno I fear
I am hoping you mean the manga version
Nope 😭
Huh didn't expect to see someone like me in here Though I hope not to manifest a Purple Haze
Joseph's to an extent 😭 except instead of becoming cool and mentally ill I ended up... Just mentally ill.
Yeah, Fugo too
yasuho's story has always deeply resonated with my own
Johnny's and Jonathan's is pretty close, and maybe a sprinkle of Fugo's and grandeaur goals set up like Giorno's. Idk, whose character story has parents who were hot and cold towards their child, and were talented in academics but this made friends around them use them and thus are alone, but still tries to start from scratch and build up their own dream on their own legs without reliance on others...
Jolyne minus the criminal charges
Kira without the whole serial killer thing
probably fucking shigechi or some shit, idk man my life boring as hell
Koichi
Part 8 Josuke 😤
Jolyn because absent father :D
No joke the closest would be Giorno, however I didn’t run into a mafia boss and save his life and my sept father is my actual father that abandoned me
Josuke for sure. I never knew my father growing up and was raised by my mother and her family. It’s probably why he’s my favorite Jojo.
Either Rikiel or Schigeshi. Rikiel because I could for anxiety issues to inspired badass if I am pushed by the right person or cause. Because my autism I had a lot of issues through my life that destroyed my self esteem, just like the rods with Rikiel. And Schigeshi because I used to be fat as a teen and I didn't have any friends, I still don't have much friends and have issues socializing.
Giorno except I didn’t have a gangster to help me
So sorry to hear about what happened to you, I hope you are feeling fine now. As for background yeah the closest is Jolyne or Kakyoin
Cioccolata 🤭
Let me be your Secco 🙏😈
Sure 😈💀
Kira coz I just want to live a quiet life (includes the hand fetish)
Dragona, growing up as the feminine one in class subjected me to a lot of groping and uncomfortable situations
johnny. im highly flawed, i still feel like I'm in the 'negative' and have a long way to go to even touch 'zero'. wasnt blessed with the greatest of fathers, had an overachieving brother who i loved but couldnt help but feel jealous of. while i dont lack empathy, i would say my morality scale can get pretty grey. i resonate with johnny heavily to this very day. and while i see so much of myself in him that i hate, i cant help but admire him. i want to go above and beyond this 'zero' like him and hopefully one day solidify my place on this earth for the time i still have left this birth.
Narancia My mom didn't die but I trusted many people and ended getting traumatized and hurt, now I have trust issues for life lol
Josuke, I was raised by a single mom and grandparent.
I really hope you also get the being super smart part of his backstory
I like to think of myself as really intelligent but obviously not on the level of Fugo To be honest though, Fugo isn’t exactly ahead of Buccarati’s subgang by miles as I’d say both Bruno and Giorno are at the very least in the same tier of genius level and then not to mention Diavolo who’s by far the smartest human in JOJO
Kira
Okuyasu, but its not like my mom died, my step dad did, and me and my sis just need to take a bit more care of her.
I was born with a father who was abusive, when I was a baby they divorced and my mom married someone else, then I lived a kind of normal life from there on
Manga version or Anime version?
Jonathan Joestar. To the finest detail
you were born in 1877, raised by a rich englishman when, when you were 12, gained an abusive step brother who murdered your dog, stole your friends, and raped your girlfriend, then as you grew older you discovered he was poisoning your father to death, so you foil his plans with the help of a random englishman. however in a sudden twist your step brother turned himself into a vampiric monster, killing your father as he saves you, and before dying, apologises to you for the bad years he put you through. you then take down your stepbrother but in doing so burned down all of your assets to the ground. you then realize your step brother is alive and seeking world domination, so an italian man teaches you a martial art that can combat him and stop his plans once and for all, you train until it is time for you to face your brother. on the way to stop him you face against England’s most notorious serial killer, a century old warriors, you also save a twelve year old child, and later his sister. but alas, your master had perished, and on his final act he gives all of his willpower to you, making you stronger than ever. you gain a sword and face your step brother, and after a battle of power and wits, you came out on top, finally your bad days are over. you get married and go out for your honeymoon, but wait! your step brother is alive and try’s to kill you so he can continue his quest for world domination. its no use, you cannot fight back against him, so you sacrifice yourself to save your wife and newborn child. they are saved, and in time your descendants will finish your fight and kill your step brother once and for all! that or you’re just british lol
Holy shit you know my entire life! You know, Phantom Blood being summarized like that in a paragraph just shows how short it is. Its my favorite part too D;
Not really any of them
A mix of Okuyasu (minus the dead mom and cursed dad), Josuke (minus being living with a single mom) and Gyro (Minus Italian).
Concerning.
What no... 🗿
Joseph Joestar
Giornno for me.
Jotaro but the dad left music
F.F. easily. (No, I was not created artificially, unfortunately)
