ディエゴ・ブランドー |
Diego "Dio" Brando is a racer in the Steel Ball Run race and serves as an antagonist of Part VII: Steel Ball Run. He is the alternate universe counterpart of Dio Brando, the most featured antagonist in the previous series.
PersonalityDiego is very similar to his namesake in both looks and personality. However, Diego is a famous professional jockey from England participating in the Steel Ball Run race across North America. Although his mother raised him with much love, he had a very hard life growing up in poor conditions they were forced to live in, resulting in his cold-heartedness – it is said that he will virtually do anything to win. At the age of 20, Diego married a rich 83 year-old woman who died six months later, enabling Diego to inherit her wealth. This led to speculations that he murdered her.
Personality Diego Brando from Another UniverseThe "new" Diego appeared to be more sadistic than the original one, trying to kill Johnny with very violent ways as throwing knives or trying to burn Johnny alive with matches. He did not care for others, and had no scruples in his actions, even sacrificing others for his sake. His sadistic side makes him more similar to the original Dio Brando than his counterpart in Steel Ball Run.
