~ Narciso Anasui |
Narciso Anasui (Narc Anastasia in the English dub) is a major character of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Part VI: Stone Ocean. He is an inmate in Green Dolphin Street Prison who falls in love with Jolyne and decides to help her with defeating Enrico Pucci. Anasui wields the Stand Diver Down, which alllows him to storage power anywhere he pleases and rearrange beings or objects from its insides.
He was voiced by Yuichi Nakamura in JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All Star Battle and JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Eyes of Heaven and by Daisuke Namikawa in the anime. In the English version of the anime, he is voiced by Howard Wang.
History[]
Although he was briefly seen next to Weather Report by Ermes Costello, Anasui doesn't get involved with Jolyne until F.F. comes to Emporio for help. Seemingly entranced by the tales he has heard of her, Anasui agrees to become Jolyne's bodyguard out of his burning love for her and exits Emporio's ghost room. Using Diver Down, he opens a door by storing energy into it and releasing the energy as a kick upon two incoming guards.
Anasui attempts to convince Foo Fighters to make Jolyne trip down the stairs in order for him to stop her from falling and have her fall in love with him. Foo Fighters, still preoccupied by the remaining enemies, refuses at first, but caves and trips Jolyne. She uses Stone Free to grab onto the arm of the small prisoner holding DIO's bone, leaving Anasui in favor of her goal.
He then notices the strange effects of the Green Baby's birth on the prisoner, shocked at the metamorphosis. Anasui warns Jolyne to stop, noticing the plants on her face and inspecting her before concluding that the roots and plant-like things appearing in the Ultra-Security Punishment Ward are the cause of DIO's bone. Anasui then uses Diver Down to remove most of the flowers that grew out of Jolyne's body after she went to give chase to the bone. He lightly nibbles on one of the flowers to confirm that they are living things, while also warning Jolyne to stay out of the sunlight in order to prevent further growth. However, he is unable to stop her from taking the Green Baby.
Anasui is shrunk alongside her after they accidentally get in range of the Green Baby. After they get into a bottle to stop getting shrunk, the Green Baby undoes its powers on them.

Narciso is a disturbed and cold man. He was born with a strange desire and talent to dismantle objects. He has a one-sided crush on Jolyne and desires to marry her.
Powers & Abilities[]

Trivia[]
- Anasui's first name comes from the Cuban-American fashion designer Narciso Rodriguez and his last name comes from the American fashion designer "Anna Sui".
- His stand "Diver Down" comes from a Van Halen album with the same name.
- In the manga, he was drawn as a woman in his first appearance before being changed into a man, which led to a rumor that Araki was forced to change his gender by Shonen Jump due to them not wanting to include a lesbian relationship in the manga. This rumor, however, has never been confirmed.
