Appearance and Abilities
Josuke Higashikata Part 8, also known as Gappy, is the protagonist of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: JoJolion. Unlike his past counterparts, Gappy has a peculiar appearance, with two sets of memories and a zipper running down the left side of his body. His Stand, Soft & Wet, possesses the ability to create and control bubbles, allowing him to manipulate objects, heal wounds, and absorb abilities. Gappy’s Stand also grants him the power of “Go Beyond,” which enables him to reset an event’s cause and effect, creating alternate outcomes.
Backstory and Relationships
Gappy’s past is shrouded in mystery. He awakens with amnesia in Morioh, the setting of Part 4, and is later revealed to be the fusion of two separate entities: Josefumi Kujo and Kira Yoshikage. As he unravels his complex past, Gappy faces formidable foes and forms alliances with an eclectic cast of characters, including his ally Yasuho Hirose and his mentor Rai Mamezuku. Throughout his journey, Gappy grapples with his dual identities and seeks to uncover the truth behind his creation.
The Enigma of “Rock Humans”
A significant element of Josuke Higashikata Part 8’s story is the introduction of “Rock Humans,” a group of beings who share a connection to the Hato Mountain Range. Rock Humans possess unique abilities and are often intertwined with the plot’s progression. They come in various forms, including the “Locacaca,” a fruit with healing properties that plays a pivotal role in the narrative. Gappy’s quest to decipher the mystery of the Rock Humans and their connection to his own past drives the story forward and adds an intriguing layer to the already captivating plot.
