Johnny Joestar is the protagonist of Part 7 of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, "Steel Ball Run." Although he is a blood relative of the Joestar family, he is also a character who has no direct connection to them because he exists in a parallel world. He has blonde hair and wears a horseshoe cap, and is a former jockey. However, he has been using a wheelchair since being shot in the leg by someone with a grudge. After meeting Gyro Zeppeli at the Steel Ball Run race, he began working with him to discover the secret behind the rotation of the iron ball. He also awakens to his Stand ability during the race, and has acquired the ability to fire claw bullets from his fingers called "tusks."

First, the first quote from Johnny Joestar that I'd like to introduce is, "The one who can take down Gyro Zeppeli is...!! This Johnny Joestar!" This quote is spoken by Johnny at the climax of the first stage of Steel Ball Run. Dio, who had fallen behind at one point, catches up and tries to overtake Gyro, who is in sole first place, by using Johnny. This is what he says in response to that, and it is a quote that shows that even though he can no longer move his legs, he still has pride in his model.

The next quote from Johnny Joestar is "Of course! I'll beat you." This famous line is spoken by Johnny to Gyro after the first stage of Steel Ball Run is over. His legs, which had been immobile due to the spinning of Gyro's iron ball, start to move, and it is these words of determination to find out more about the spinning, as well as the beginning of the friendship between the two. Although there is strong hostility between them at this time, they begin to work together.

The third quote from Johnny Joestar that I would like to introduce is, "These are more than just claws... they are fangs. From now on, we will call them Tasks." This quote was spoken when Johnny's Stand grew when he and Gyro were targeted by the President's men. Until now, the claws only had the ability to rotate, but now they can fly like bullets. This is Johnny's first proper battle scene, and it is also a very exciting scene, so it is considered a quote. This is also the beginning of Johnny's Stand's growth with every opportunity.
Johnny Joestar's quote #4 "You can't win unless you're hungry. But you have to be much, much more noble than Dio."

"You can't win unless you're hungry, but you have to be much, much more noble than Dio" is one of Johnny Joestar's famous lines. This is what Johnny said to Gyro at the end of the third stage, and it is also an important line that teaches the mindset in a fight. He asserts that Gyro cannot win as he is now, since he is an inheritor and not a taker. It also teaches the importance of the desire to win by any means necessary, and that one must be more noble and hungry than Dio. These words are very applicable to any fight, and can be said to be useful words in life.

The sixth quote from Johnny Joestar that I would like to introduce is, "No more wavering, I got it... I just got it! The place to shoot is..." This quote was spoken by Johnny during a battle with Accel RO, who uses the Stand Civil War. After shooting and killing Task, he falls into the enemy's trap and is unable to escape. However, this quote comes from a time when he comes up with the idea of shooting Task at himself. This is the scene where he discovers that he can move freely by shooting himself with rotating golden rectangular claw bullets, and it is also a very exciting scene.

This quote is spoken by Johnny after he was fatally wounded by President Valentine's power. This is a scene that conveys Johnny's strong desire to get a corpse and restart his life, and it is also a scene where he reaffirms his purpose. It is a scene where you can feel the despair that the president has gathered all the corpses, but it is also a cool scene where Johnny and Gyro try to stand up again from that point.

The last quote from Johnny Joestar I'd like to introduce is "Goodbye Gyro... Goodbye." This is also what Johnny said to Gyro after he died. When the president offers Johnny a contract to bring Gyro back, Johnny hesitates, but he tests the president. Then, when the president shows his true colors, Johnny is unable to bring Gyro back, and in this scene he truly says his goodbyes. Johnny's voice calling out to Gyro in his hazy state is very moving.
