Narciso Anasui

Narciso Anasui is a fictional character from the Japanese manga JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. Anasui is one of Jolyne's allies and one of the main love interests for Jolyne.

Story
Obsessed with disassembling objects, Anasui grew up a bit awkward during his childhood days. He painstakingly dissected a pocket watch, his neighbour's car, and whatever else that struck his fancy. One day while returning from work, he found his girl friend cheating on him with another man. In response, he methodically tore both of them apart. He was sent to prison and a faced twelve year sentence for first degree murder.

Although he was briefly seen next to Weather Report by Hermes, 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. Upon finding her, Anasui keeps true to his word and protects Jolyne -to the point of self-sacrificing at times.

After being ambushed by Pucci, Anasui was sent back to the male division of prison. Hearing of Jolyne's escape, he forces Weather Report -who possessing a Joestar birthmark as a two-way tracker- to lead him to her. The two shared a shaky alliance until Weather's death at the hands of Pucci. He was found by Jolyne directly afterwards and followed her until the end.

His name in the Steel Ball Run universe, Anakiss, coincides with Jolyne's new name, Irlene, which sounds like "I lean".

Personality
His drive for fighting is Jolyne. Selfless and valiant, he isn't afraid to risk his life for her. When they aren't in danger, he will use anything in his arsenal to woo Jolyne to his willies -though he is hardly successful and are moments of comic relief. Once he realizes that she is danger, he will jump into the fray with little regard for his own safety. In love with her courageous and burning determination, Anasui mused that given the chance, he would follow Jolyne for eternity.

Although he is devoted to Jolyne, he will treat anyone who isn't her badly. His noble and protective persona thins to show his otherwise menacing and intimidating tendencies. Whether friend or foe, Anasui won't hesitate to kill anyone who disturbs his happiness with Jolyne. On one occasion, he threatens F.F. to not interfere with his work, almost strangling her when she almost disobeyed. While he is more than willing to jump into action for Jolyne, he refuses to help anyone else unless he knows that Jolyne needs them. The main exception to this is of course, Jotaro, wanting his approval for his marriage proposal to Jolyne.

Stand
Diver Down (ダイバー・ダウン daibā daun): allows Anasui to phase his body through any object. He can also use his stand to hop into people's minds and talk to them. If needed, he can phase his stand into someone else's body, allowing them to borrow Diver Down's limbs without being harmed. This ability also makes him a fitting bodyguard as he can lessen the blow a person is dealt by transferring the damage to himself. It is never clearly stated how or when he received his stand, but it is assumed that he had his Stand before his prison sentence.

Trivia

 * Interestingly, Anasui was first presented as a woman. When he is re-introduced later, Araki decided to switch his gender.
 * Like Jolyne, his first appearance is considerably more frail looking than his last appearance.
