The line where Johnny saying that Gyro doesn’t have that selfish hunger to defeat DIO is ironic due to the fact that not only is he defeated by DIO but it’s a call back to Jonathan who also lacked the ruthlessness it takes to beat DIO.
I think while improving himself during the race while being with Gyro Johnny lost the selfish hunger to defeat Dio (at that he is even able to walk, so there is nothing selfish about pursuing Dio, he is only trying to protect the corpse from the hands of greed) There is even a moment in the fight when Dio uses human shields, Johnny could have keep shooting Tusk 4 until killing him (well maybe he didnt understand what happen by being in the sewer but i guess he could have shooted more times to be sure while disregarding the danger of the watchers of the race).
@@santiagovidelaleiva Good point. At that point Johnny's able to walk, he's achieved his goal. Diego however was very much motivated by greed, cash, and owning Manhattan island.
JoJo's Colored Adventure team is a team of translators, not painters. Coloring was done in Japan by a different team. I've made the same mistake recently. Sorry for my bad English.
Well then why are they called JoJo's Colored Adventure if they just translate? that's like a shop that says burger place on the front but they only sell hot dogs
Also yes I completely agree Gyro not having a stand was great. I mean there are people in one piece that don't have devil fruit powers that are more powerful than a lot of people I know it's not exactly the same concept but yeah.... I would like to see more powerful none stand users
@@upg5147 we do it appears in the end more over if he did not have a stand how was he able to see other stands also when he first gets the eye of the corpse he was able to see via the steel ball
Araki's character writing is perhaps his biggest improvement from the original universe to SBR. The cast of characters in SBR and JoJolion, in terms of character complexity and depth, blow every other part out of the water. Deciding to write a strictly adult-orientated manga was the best decision of Araki's career.
Agreed. This is a controversial opinion but I didn't enjoyed part 1-6 that much, they're mediocre. Then comes part 7, the part where I truly appreciated.
I stand by that gyro is the best character araki has ever written. He pretty much flawlessly fills the roles of mentor, best friend, and even moral compass for Johnny.
I feel like the only reason Gyro isn’t widely worshipped by the fans and as popular as Speedwagon is because he’s manga only. (Hopefully he won’t always be)
@@benobrien7920 hes already beint worshipped both. Hes being worshipped for being 1 of the best, well written jojo characters. And also being worship as a meme because of his pizza mozzarella.
They are indeed drastically different characters. I don't think either of them could have carried the story by themselves but together they do it perfectly.
Anyone else think that the steel balls are a metaphor for Gyro’s guts? Saying someone has balls of steel typically means they are brave, which he definitely fits that bill to a T.
Such a badass. He constantly would be in the most insane, pants shitting situation and always come out on top using his mind and balls. Best character fosho
I kind of see him as another interpretation of the Clint Eastwood character in the Dollars Trilogy, separate from Jotaro. Very specifically, Blondie from The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
Gyro: Italian ball man Johnny: cripple fingernail guy Diego: angry British dinosaur Valentine: Donald Trump Hot pants: Clorox flesh spray The corpse: dead Add onto some of these.
Giro is the Giorno of Part 7. Fully developed and focused without needing any further growth. So he causes the other characters around him to grow and develop instead.
This whole video is spoilers so I feel okay saying this. Imagine going on an incredibly dangerous and grueling journey all to save one innocent child. Imagine having what seems like the whole world against you, including the people you swore loyalty to for the sake of an innocent child. You've endured so much pain and lost so much but your determination to save that child's life keeps you pushing ahead. And then the kid later catches a cold and dies. I don't know whether to laugh or cry at that.
Tbf by that point in the series Gyro has kind of forsaken winning the race for Marco in favor of helping Johnny fulfill his personal journey(and dies in the process). But yes a pretty big dick move by god(araki)
I just wanna mention that technically none of the characters in Jojo’s have an “official” color scheme until the anime comes out, even then it’s up in the air though since Araki does his manga in black and white (with shading of course). However I do think purple is a very fitting color for Gyro since his family is connected to the royalty of Naples.
Well yes but actually no, the eye gave him an upgrade to his spin. And that stand that we saw at the Ringo fight is the guardian of the right eye. Finally, ball breaker is the physical embodiment of the zeppeli spin after gyro perfected it, so theoretically anyone who can replicate that spin can also manifest ball breaker. Gyro whole ability was strictly texhnique
Well, he is the main protagonist in SBR. He didn't have something like others did (stand power) and tried to overcome with it, which is a main premise of some other shonen manga. Arguably has the best arc in the series ( true man's world), and HIS POSE IS TOTALLY OVERWHELMING compared to his sidekick Johnny. This is why this series called Steel Ball Run, not emphatizing the JJBA part 7 thing.
@Dylan Ogega False. It was always meant to be Jojos. The first authors note for SBR says so. jojo.fandom.com/wiki/Author%27s_Note_(Steel_Ball_Run) (Note that the first authors note was written for volume 1, of which covers chapters 1-5) Scroll down past the "SBR CHAPTERS" section to "SBR VOLUME 1"
sizing down the main party to two characters was the perfect decision, johnny and gyro both have great fully-realized arcs and a wonderful dynamic with one another. plus side characters like hot pants and diego are strictly around for chapters that are directly relevent to their own arcs, solving the problem of less-relevent allies like fugo and ermes being background characters for a lot of their part.
Love, love, love Gyro Zeppeli 💚, and love your thoughtful review, as usual. You articulated so well many feelings I have had about the character/story. Thank you!
color schemes in jojo's aren't in any way canon though. You can see Araki experiment with them on the manga covers and his colored pages so his purple and green vest isn't in any way part of his character design
I feel that jojo fighting without a stand is something gyro should have and be the only one to be like that. It makes him better than every charecter and makes him even more perfect. I dont want more charecters like that because it was something he will be remebered for. And many other things
Grills are fine but green lipstick, now that's innovative and bold specially for 19th century standards, I guess Valentine could had been sent to the firing squad by his commander had he pulled that move in the war.
Obviously the manga is about the joestar family, but the zepelli bloodline have been my favorite characters. Though there are few, they truly are the best side kicks. Gyro is my favorite character in all of jojo. The drip. His mission.
gyro had two stands during part 7 that a lot of people miss these two stands being SCAN and Ball Breaker, SCAN having more of a humanoid appearance the ball breaker
This video is 3 years old but I do wanna note that Gyro is a stand user throughout the entirety of part 7 from the Boom Boom family arc and onward, he's just unaware of it the whole time.
If you observe closely, they could escape but didn't want to. Also Gyro is the first Zeppeli to not have died while protecting the JoJo, but for a bigger reason.
Sir NewWorldReview The colors of the characters are not chosen by the jojos colored adventure team, there are oficial colored jojo volumes made by shueisa with Araki supervising them because everyone loves jojo colored
Honestly I think gyro is arakis best character. I also think the selfish hunger line is foreshadowing for gyros death to valentine. Also like that ballbreaker only shows up a few times
Gyro is actually a bad character because we never learn how he got his Grills. 0/10, I win I’m joking btw, he’s my favorite JoBro and I even made a video about him as well
Gyro is one of the more well written characters in JoJo, in my opinion. I can see why Johnny is really interested in his steel ball.
You're here too huh?
No one can resist the steel balls

This is actually a pretty good comparison I never noticed. Thank you for pointing it out.
Both end up following the selfish leads with insane drives to reach their goals
@@Double400 And both leads' adventure end in tragedy huh weird.
iirc, killua kills because of his frustration, while gyro doesn't want to kill, he's against it he only wants to beat misdeed doers.

@@jimmyrustles358 stfu fr, how jobin, can be better then Gyro since he got nothing, he s not a good antagonist

I'm much more of a world interested guy than a character interested guy.
but gyro is such a force of nature I consider his story to be worldbuilding.
This goes to show how good part 7 is through 1 character
I know, Pocoloco really is the best
Gaucho is such a brilliant character I know
Balls spin
I have nothing constructive to say

The greatest Jobro hands down!
I would agree with you, but Speedwagon still exists, but outside of him, yeah, Gyro is the best though my personal favorite is Okiyasu
Gyro is not a jobro, gyro is more important than a jojo
That's because he is the MC in SBR.
Best JoJo, best jobros, best villain, best fights, best story, best character development and best ending. Steel ball run is the best part.
house yes i agree
Gyro’s fight against Wekapipo really solidified him as best boy for me. That fight is seriously underrated.
I feel that jojo fighting without a stand is something gyro should have and be the only one to be like that. It makes him better than every charecter and makes him even more perfect. I dont want more charecters like that because it was something he will be remebered for. And many other things

Gotta love the ongoing bromance between NewWorldReview and Gyro.
Gyro is almost as good as are lord and saviour joshu the god of connections and peace.

“So just push my teeth” Truly something I would not have expected to hear today
Only today huh...

One of the reasons why Gyro is so great is because he subscribe to the grand line reviews!
yeah no dout about it
Gyro is my all time favorite fictional character. His morales and story is just so great i love him so much

I was mildly pissed
“Western cowboy trait” my first though “He’s not western american he’s an italian”
Thank you Gyro for being the best
Best Jobro, Best Jovillian. Best enemies during events of story. SBR is truly the best part of JJBA franchise and masterpiece manga.
I'm just waiting for just some guy without a mustache
*Sniff* I miss his hat
Gyro is the best character in SBR because there isn't an alternative universe Speed Wagon
Speedwagon is a dead meme.
Gyro is by far, one of the best character in all fictions
It's kinda funny, and sad how Gyro died for the boy to be given amnesty, and then after that the boy died too because of cold.
My Favorite JoJo's Character :3
Even in alternate dimensions, the Zepello family can't escape death.
If you observe closely, they could escape but didn't want to. Also Gyro is the first Zeppeli to not have died while protecting the JoJo, but for a bigger reason.

Steel Ball Run Fans 🤝 Johnny Joestar
Crushing HARD on Gyro Zeppeli
Well JoJo is primarily relevant because of it's stands and without them it would feel like jojo
Honestly I think gyro is arakis best character. I also think the selfish hunger line is foreshadowing for gyros death to valentine. Also like that ballbreaker only shows up a few times
I fuckin love gyro
But I still can't understand why Gyro never showed his stand to Johnny, not using it is a thing but hiding it is another
fun fact: gyro is a greek word which means "rotation" or "spinning" which makes you think, wow, araki likes basing names of off things.
This guy have balls to fight the president
