User blog comment:Jojo-a-gogo/Do you guys think that Buccialati would have been a better "JoJo" than Giorno in Part 5?/@comment-4010045-20130107161207

Bruno definitely had the possibility of being a great JoJo, he had the right personality and abilities. I agree.

Truth is that Giorno was overshadowed not only by Bucciarati, but also by most of the other members of gang. That's a peculiarity of Part 5, Araki wanted to show a team working together rather than a group of lone fighters like in Part 3. That's why he gave Giorno a "supporting" Stand that works best when paired with another. Infact Giorno takes part to practically all battles in Vento Aureo, though he is the protagonist of only a few.

The JoJoesque presence of Bucciarati was clear in the battle against Pesci and Prosciutto: Giorno does practically nothing for 12 chapters! Araki must have noticed that and so he created Baby Face and White Album to give Giorno more exposure. Then again, seven main protagonists were too many so he had to cut off the least versatile ones (Fugo, Abbacchio).

So, in the end, Bucciarati would have been a nice choice for a JoJo just as fine. By the way, let's not talk about the PS2 JoJo game, because that one gives you the feeling Giorno isn't even there... (He fights Black Sabbath and then stays put until Green Day appears). That could have been Bucciarati's Bizarre Adventure!
