How these ratings work

This character's data is complete. Every rating comes from documented feats — what they have actually been shown to do, not where fans rank them. The roster as a whole is still being worked through, so matchups can shift as opponents are researched.

If a verdict looks wrong, flag it. That is how most corrections start.

Background

Young Joseph Joestar after Lisa Lisa's training: a Ripple-breathing trickster who carries Hamon clackers and wins by improvised traps, bluffs and conductors - deadly to vampires and Pillar Men, an ordinary human body otherwise.

Rated by running this character against every other in the field and scoring who they beat, not by votes.
