combining my 2 favorite fandoms because why not

Some rad Dio trivia from JJBA: Over Heaven not many people seem to know/remember about:

Dio’s mother was of noble blood (or at least origins) and it’s suggested she might’ve eloped with his father

Dio received most of his early education from his mother

He used to be made fun of because of his mother’s kindness and naivety in the slums, which is why he thought she was foolish, but retracted (to an extent) on that statement later on in his life

His mother never stopped defending his father, no matter how abused she got

His father selling his mother’s dresses for booze was the direct reason for Dio killing him

The 14 phrases used to enter Heaven in Part 6 are in fact a lullaby Dio’s mother used to sing to him to help him fall asleep.

His mother was also very pious and would often talk about going to Heaven.

Dio was going to have a sibling (to which he quite caringly refers to as “little brother” or “little sister”) but his father’s abuse caused his mother to miscarry. He still remembers that 100 years later and wonders whether some of the women he’s impregnated could’ve miscarried due to to him being a vampire.

He is aware that he has children, or at least that he got women pregnant (again, he doesn’t know how many of them miscarried/aborted)

He purposefully chose “wicked” women as mothers for his children, thinking they would raise kids better than his own kind mother did (he was even willing to have a child with Enya had she been younger).

He’s not afraid of potentially going to Hell, as he thinks whatever may await him there can’t be worse than his childhood.

Dio’s legal name is actually Dio Joestar since George did properly adopt him. However, even after the change people at school still called him ‘Brando’. (He preferred Joestar over Brando, but ultimately rejected both last names)

Similarly, he would rather call George his father over Dario, but didn’t like either of them.

The primary reason behind his hate for the Joestar family is the fact he considers them to be 'inheritors’ aka people who never had to work or fight for their privileges.

He compares Jonathan to his father, who never worked for anything in his life, but at the same time realizes his wish to crush him is similar to his father’s abuse towards his mother and feels disgusted with himself.

He bears HUGE respect towards Erina, constantly comparing her to his late mother and even calling her a 'holy woman’, to the point of getting actual delusions. He doesn’t say a single bad word about her throughout his entire diary. Seriously, people who say Dio hated Erina need to take a moment to reconsider.

The concept of ‘holy women’ keeps coming back to him - other women he’s called that include his mother, Sherry Polnareff and Holly Kujo. And he’s very far from being a misogynist, contrary to popular belief.

Jonathan’s unwavering kindness towards him genuinely hurts him.

He says Jonathan is the only man he’s ever respected.

According to Dio himself, the reason behind his Stand’s powers is related to the scene from the manga when he borrowed a pocket watch from Jonathan and never had a chance to return it - he said he “wouldn’t return the watch until it stopped”.

He believes things could’ve turned out differently had Mary Joestar been there to raise him.

Had he not been a vampire, he would’ve liked to master Hamon

He wanted to save Holly for the sake of keeping things at peace with Joseph and Jotaro, but couldn’t think of any way of helping her.

He thought there might be some sort of “gravity” between him and Diavolo and wanted to meet him before dying.

It was Erina who saved him on the ship and they both used the infamous “Schrodinger’s Coffin” to escape. She just left it earlier. Also, Erina held no grudge against him (again, to an EXTENT)

The last thing he heard/“saw” before falling into 100 years long coma was his mother’s request of him becoming a good, noble person who can go to Heaven. Go figure.
