Restoring this blog. I believe that he exhibits traits of ASD as well, but that discussion is beyond the scope of this post. My zeal flagged nearing the end, do excuse it.
Father, forgive me for asking, but do you ever regret the events that transpired between you and the Kujo's? Do you think there could have been a more peaceful option, or was your... unorthodox approach the only way you saw yourself achieving Heaven?
Allow me to ask you this:
During a fight between a dangerously venomous snake and a hound, does the hound feel regret after murdering the snake? No. The hound was being attacked, and retaliation was the only means for it to survive.
Does he have a social life? Does he have any friends outside of Dio? Does he live in a house or an apartment? Does he have any casual clothing or is his robe surgically attached to his skin? Did he have good parents? Did he ever get lonely? Outside of the Bible, what does he like to read? Does he have iphone? His job canonically doesn't pay that much (even for 2011) so does he have a second one to pay for his $800 pants? What the fuck kind of pants is he wearing in the first place for it to be $800? Tailored Versace pants? What does he like to eat? Has he ever been out of the country? Can he drive? Does he drink? Did he drink and drive and get his license suspended (hence why he's never seen driving a car)? Does he work out? Why did he have star eyes that ONE time (in the anime) then never again?
Though with the few things we have, I have assumptions and other answers.
1. If he has a social life, I doubt it's an extensive one. After Perla's death, he seems rude towards others and closed off. The other characters (foe and ally) who interact with him can't understand what he even means when he speaks and / or is simply afraid of him because he refuses any equality in connection. Also, with evidence (think Rikiel), he looks down at others a lot with an entitled ego or disgust and often says, "You'll never understand." Otherwise, he's shown putting on a front at the security room, but it's clear he wants nothing to do with them.
2. I would assume he lives in a rectory. With the accessibility and other things he was dealing with hastily, I doubt it's a manor anymore.
3. I question his parents, too. They seem relatively fine, considering that bad parents are often highlighted in Jojo's when there's anything wrong with them. With a glimpse of them softly speaking to Enrico in that one scene, they're likely just as relaxed in that way. I do question the pattern of both Weather and Perla attempting suicide though - and even Pucci doing it in the non-canon Eyes of Heaven. He also clearly suffers from certain mental disorders too, so I'm sure down their family line, there is some form of trauma. He shows disproportionate reactions as well.
4. Since he was reading Fra Lippi and makes references to Buddhism and other forms of novels, I assume he likes philosophy, art, history, world religions, and psychology books. Italian literature. He makes a reference to Sun Wukong as well, so he has definitely canonically read "A Journey to the West."
5. He comes from a wealthy family, so I wouldn't be surprised if that's where that money comes from. Especially since he was a priest requested to work from "all over the world." He seems highly regarded.
6. By the seafood flan scene, he may prefer savory custards and gourmet food. Coming from a line of Venetians, maybe Italian cuisine as well. Which wouldn't be such a wild thought considering Araki's love for Italy.
7. I would be willing to believe that he's been out the country given his status from number 5. Especially if he's a priest, I wouldn't be surprised at him having international assignments, sabbaticals, or retreats. The dioceses interests and such. I like to imagine that he's been to Rome and visited the Vatican.
8. If you're over the age of 15 in Jojos, you can't legally drive.
9. He certainly works out. His traps are not natural without exercise, and I wouldn't be surprised if that's where the rest of his build came from. His lean frame is also visible at times beneath the caasock and the force at which he slaps people is extremely powerful.
10. The stars in his eyes in those few scenes were an artistic expression of emotion.
DIO X PUCCI DOESNT GET ENOUGH HATE, PUCCI MET DIO WHEN HE WAS 16, AND DIO IS IN HIS HUNDREDS, HE ALSO MANIPULATED PUCCI. Sure, Pucci can have a crush on Dio or love him, but reciprocating it AND PORTRAYING IT AS A WHOLESOME SHIP AS WELL AS IGNORING EVERYTHING ELSE IS DOGSHIT AND AT THIS POINT IT COUNTS AS A DARKSHIP
I don't think he even likes him romantically, either. It's just reverence. Diopucci fans never have anything good to say anyway and it's always them borderline defending pedophilia trying to die on this hill; I despise all of it.
The same way people will water down Pucci's character to just 'appeasing DIO' and then will do the same thing to Lucy with Valentine. They are more than that.
As for the height chart, Enrico reads at 195cm / 6'4.77'" / 6'5" rounded in the anime and 181cm / 5'11" in the manga.
Tailpieces and staff / privelege cards:
-
Games:
(All-Star Battle > Eyes of Heaven > Monster Strike > ASBR-R > Path to Nowhere > Ora Ora Overdrive > and Last Survivor).
To be further specific, he is also in other minor games such as: six Roblox games (Your Bizarre Adventure, All Star Tower Defense, A Universal Time, Bizarre Lineage, Anime Last Stand, and Anime Card Battle); Puzzles and Dragons; Jumputi Heroes; and Tower of Saviors.
Manga:
(also in the spin-off "Fujiko's Bizarre Worldly Wisdom" and light-novel "JORGE JOESTAR" where he is not a chaplain but a... NASA scientist and astronaut...)
Due to Tumblr's image limit, these are all the panels I could share. However, all of this can also be found through the Jojo's Wiki Gallery or through research (for not everything is on the former).
I simply gathered them here to make further accessible to anyone who may enjoy him and miniscule details about his appearances without needing to absently scroll insipid websites.
Tried that one trend. Last Pucci and Perla art for now. I saw someone on here say they imagined him as a good artist, and I'd have to agree. Weather, too, perhaps. (though, he'd keep it more private and to himself).
I imagine that Pucci drew theological figures and statues mainly - art you'd see from the High Renaissance era and colors like affresco.
He would draw inspiration from Hellenistic statues because it gave him an excuse to study history and philosophy while drawing. An open tome resting next to his work space.
Yes, a chaplain. I would've loved seeing how Araki's original idea of tricking the readers into believing Pucci wasn't a threat would've looked like. Because of the Miraschon scene (and Jojo's designing in general), we knew, of course, but Pucci already did a good job fooling Jolyne and Weather with his feigned piety.
I can go on about this. Not to mention, we see him much earlier than the usual villains who tend to appear later. Episode 8 in the anime.
He is so incredibly conniving. The manipulation and influence he uses through his religuous position over threat / power like some villains did instead is what's dangerous. Obvious threats immediate a flight-or-flight response while deception bypasses natural defenses and traps people.
Seeing hints of his intelligence in his younger scenes shows he was one of the worst people who could've become what he did, even if it was through grief, being manipulated by Dio at an early age, and likely mental struggles.
