Dennis Constantine

***Dennis Pascal Constantine*** (08 May, 1956 - ) is a former actor.

***Birthplace:*** Jeffersonville, IN

***News Article (1984)***

"The money is great, but Uncle Sam gets nearly half. The glamour is exciting, but the struggle takes the edge off. And it's always a push to keep one's energy off. Still, there's always a different audience and a different reaction." So says Dennis Constantine, 27, a native of Jeffersonville, Ind. He is playing Asher, one of Joseph's 11 brothers, in the musical, "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" at the Kentucky Center for the Arts. Final performances are at 2 and 7 p.m. today. Constantine, who has been on the road with the show for six months, says, "It's great to see my parents and have some home-cooked meals." He's staying with his parents, John and Nicki Constantine, in Jeffersonville. When the pressure of living and traveling with 25 people gets to him, Constantine thinks about Jeffersonville High School choir and music director John Cleveland. "He taught me a lot more than choir. Priorities, goals. Never to give up on your dreams." At such times, Constantine also turns to his journal. "It's an emotional outlet. Then I go back a few months later and laugh about some of the things that got to me earlier." He tells us how he broke into show business. "When I arrived in New York, I was making $75 a week on unemployment. I told myself I would study as hard as I could — acting, singing, dancing — for six months. And I did. Then I started auditioning. The first part I tried for, I got." It was in a musical revue on a cruise ship. After seven months, he returned to New York and waited tables for a year and a half until the "Dreamcoat" tour came along. "I knew it had to happen some time and it finally did." Eight days after the show closed Sept. 4 on Broadway, Constantine began work with the touring company. He had five days "to watch and catch on." When the show opened in West Point, N.Y. "I had some problems with a few dance steps. A week later, everything went together fine." He finds "the most frustrating thing about a road show is the theaters. Some don't have enough fly space or wing space to accommodate the sets. People only see half of the show." That's not the case at the Kentucky Center which Constantine finds "great. I'm proud of it. It's exciting to see Louisville grow. I left in 1976 when it was just beginning to happen. There's a sense of civic pride here that New York just doesn't have — but needs." "Dreamcoat" will go to Florida, zigzag through the Midwest, play four weeks in Boston and may go to the West Coast. The Andrew Lloyd Webber-Tim Rice show "has been very successful. It's already paid back in New York, that's unheard of."

— Anne Skinner, The Courier-Journal, 25 March, 1984

Josurai

JosuRai is the ship between Josuke Higashikata and Rai Mamezuku from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Part 8: JoJolion.

## Why people ship it

As of February 2022, there still aren't too many people who ship this, but it's safe to say that one of the reasons people do is because it's another protagonist/deuteragonist ship. These two are very protective of each other in canon and both of them value the other's life over their own.

> He's piqued my interest... I've changed my opinion of him somewhat... when all is said and done, Josuke-kun is a man I can count on... but that... is an assessment for after we've gotten our hands on the New Rokakaka...

Nijimuracest

**Nijimuracest**, (also known as **KeiOku** or it's Japanese variant **形億**), is a ship of the characters Keicho and Okuyasu Nijimura from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Part 4, Diamond is Unbreakable.

## Popularity

Although Nijimuracest is a rare pairing, there is still a fair share of people who DO ship them, though, it is more common in the Japanese side of the fandom under the name of 形億 (KeiOku). It is the most common on sites like Twitter and Pixiv.

## First appearance

In the manga that would be chapter 9, the Nijimura brothers.

And in the anime it'd be episode 3, the Nijimura brothers.

## Why people ship it

The core reason would definitely be how toxic their dynamic really is, and how codependent the two must have really been for the last 10 years where they really just had each other prior to canon events. Not even mentioning the fact that we're not even given what happened in said 10 year gap. Lot of room for interpretation here.

KiraFumi

Josefumi & Yoshikage in a photo on Karera's cellphone.

**Kirafumi** is a slash ship between the characters Josefumi Kujo (空条 仗世文 *Kūjō Josefumi*) & Yoshikage Kira (吉良 吉影 *Kira Yoshikage)* who were fused together due to equivalent exchange.

(The ship name *"Y3J" comes from* their names starting with **Y** and **J**, and in total there being 3 *"**Jo**'s"* in their names. *Example: Yoshikage Kira-**Jo**estar & **Jo**sefumi Ku**jo***)

Both of the characters are from the 8th installment of the Jojo's Bizarre Adventure series, Jojolion.

## Popularity

Due to the fact that Jojolion is not very popular amongst the JoJo fandom, the ship is unfortunately not popular in general. However, in the JoJolion fandom specifically, Kirafumi closely rivals Yasugap in popularity, and many people ship both.

## Why People Ship it

People mainly ship this because of the events that happened just before they fused. *(More detailed information in **Key Moments**)* Josefumi attempted to exchange his own life in order to save his "friend," knowing that Kira was already dead. As one might say, "that's pretty gay."

## Key Moments

One key moment that Jojolion fans remember was when Josefumi attempted to use the Locacaca fruit, and equivalently exchange his own life with Kira in order to save him. Unfortunately this did not work because Kira had already died due to his injuries. While undergoing the effects of the equivalent exchange, Josefumi hugged Kira and was crushed by the falling debris caused by the forming Wall Eyes. Due to the equivalent exchange and the Wall Eyes, they were fused together and created Josuke Higashikata.

* Originally Josefumi is shown with the Joestar birthmark, but in January 2023 the birthmark was removed when the volumes were reprinted.

Tonirna

Tonirna is the ship between **Tonio Trussardi** and **Virginia** from the **Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan** spin-off series

## Tonirna

Tonio and Virginia talking in the kitchen.

## First Seen in:

Manga: Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan, Chapter 6: "Poaching seashore"

## Tonio and Virginia in Poaching Seashore

Virginia is Tonio's girlfriend who lives in his home town of Amalfi, Italy. Tonio brings his girlfriend to Morioh in hopes of healing her brain tumor that has caused her to be confined to a wheelchair.

Even with his stand Pearl Jam, Tonio is unable to heal her tumor, so he seeks out the Morioh Disk Abalone as they are considered "the food of the gods". Tonio believes the Disk Abalone and his stand combined should be able to heal her.

He enlists the help of Rohan Kishibe to poach the abalones with him. The two of them successfully collect the abalones and Virginia is healed from her tumor after eating Tonio's dish. Tonio and Virginia are seen standing together chatting in the kitchen.

RubberOingo

Yeah that looks normal (Art by ecvc.art on Instagram)

## Characters in the relationship

RubberOingo is the ship between Rubber Soul and Oingo

## Popularity

It was recently made, it's kind of popular on Instagram

## Reasons people ship it

It's sometimes called "Forbidden JotaKak" because Rubber Soul shape shifted into Kakyoin and Oingo shape shifted into Jotaro, which is why people ship it as a crackship
DioVani

DioVani is the ship between **Dio Brando** and **Vanilla Ice** from Stardust Crusaders, the third part of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure.

While a rarepair, this ship is commonly considered semi-canon by the fandom, since Vanilla Ice's devotion towards his Lord seems more intense than it should. DioVani is also often seen as one-sided: Dio is a god in Vanilla Ice's eyes, but the vampire only sees him as his best weapon. Thus, it is believed they had a sexual relationship but not a romantic one (although Vanilla Ice was probably in love with Dio). Shippers are fond of this power imbalance, which is shown a number of times in canon.

## Relationship in Stardust Crusaders:

Vanilla Ice is first introduced at the end of Stardust Crusaders, after Terence D'Arby's defeat against Jotaro, Joseph and Kakyoin. When asked for blood by Dio, he doesn't hesitate to decapitate himself with his Stand to quench the vampire's thirst. Dio, satisfied by his devotion, then turns him into a vampire.

After that, Vanilla Ice is seen fighting against Avdol, Polnareff and Iggy. During the fight, Iggy creates a fake Dio with his Stand, and Vanilla Ice first takes him for his real master before realising Dio would never come in a sunny room. Being forced to destroy an icon of his lord makes him lose his mind, and he beats Iggy to death. Polnareff notes that it's almost like Vanilla Ice is as void as his Stand.

Finally, Vanilla's obsession with protecting Dio is his downfall, and he dies in his fight against the French man.

## Why people ship it

* Vanilla Ice's unwavering loyalty coupled to his revealing outfit lead people to believe his relationship with Dio was more than a simple Master-Servant relationship. Most people interpret their relationship as that of a cult leader and his most loyal worshipper.
* Exploring the ship's toxicity is also interesting: Vanilla Ice is completely objectified in Dio's eyes, while he's obsessed with his Lord to the point he would die for him in a heartbeat. It seems that VI doesn't have a will, and only live for one thing: protecting Dio. For these reasons, many people can't see it as anything else than one-sided.
* Some people also like to imagine Vanilla as an extremely jealous man who can't stand the sight of Dio with other people (especially if they don't worship him enough) but who also feels inferior to him and knows he doesn't deserve any special treatment. Sometimes, people make Dio aware of this and make him tease Vanilla by ordering him to stay while he's intimate with other people or so on.

## Trivia

* It is often believed Vanilla Ice would hate Pucci for being too friendly with Dio and not calling him "Lord Dio". He would be particularly jealous of their relationship.
Abbagio

Abbacchio and Giorno unit from JJBA: Stardust Shooters

### Level of Popularity

Decently popular part 5 ship. It seems to be especially popular in the Russian side of the fandom

Abbagio is the pairing between Leone Abbacchio and Giorno Giovanna from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Part 5: Vento Aureo.

## Why people ship it

Shippers tend to interpret Abbacchio's over-the-top hostility towards Giorno as something more complicated, such as a cover-up for romantic feelings, or as an attempt to emotionally distance himself from Giorno in case he gets hurt (possibly because he sees his old partner in him).

## Trivia

* Abbagio week takes place from October 25th to 31st every year.

JotaDan

JotaDan is the pairing of Jotaro Kujo and Steely Dan from Part 3: Stardust Crusaders.

## Popularity

The ship isn’t that popular, with only 21 fanfics on AO3 as of now. This is most likely because Steely Dan is a minor antagonist in the series so he's not popular among fans. The second reason would be because Jotaro and Steely showed distaste for each other and never negotiated in the end. Lastly, Jotaro has far more popular ships like Jotakak.

## First seen in...

The first appearance of JotaDan was in Stardust Crusaders episode 19 when Steely Dan took Joseph as a hostage and used Jotaro for his own gain.

## Trivia

* Contrary to what a lot of people would think, Steely Dan actually has **no confirmed age.** Because of this (accompanied with his childish, devious demeanor) it's safe to assume he is around the same age as Jotaro.

Noritaro

Noritaro is Noriaki Kakyoin x Jotaro Kujo. New name noritaro was made to create a fandom of people who mostly dislike the history of the “jotakak” fandom. Created for people who just want to embrace the Kakyoin and Jotaro ship without having to deal with the sexulizing, and bad mlm stereotypes that comes in the jotakak fandom. (Ex; Fanon kakyoin.

### Quirk

**Slitherin** (スリザリン, *Surizarin*?): Izuka's Quirk gives her snake-like hair that grows on her head. She can lengthen and manipulate the snakes, allowing her to attack, defend, and grapple. She also has the ability to detach them at will. The snakes will grow back, provided her head receives proper sunlight and water and that the snakes are properly fed.
Hazakoi

The two share a common love of manga, and a strange friendship develops between them.

### Level of Popularity

Rarepair

HazaKoi is the pairing of Koichi Hirose and Toshizaku Hazamada from Part 4: Diamond is Unbreakable.

## Popularity

With less than 100 fics on AO3 and wattpad, and little recognition among fan artists, HazaKoi is one of the more niche ships of the fandom. This most likely has to do with Hazamada's unpopularity (and repulsiveness) as a character, compared to Koichi who is arguably the deuteragonist of DiU. Hazakoi struggles to keep afloat amongst popular ships like Yukakoi, JosuKoi, and even Okukoi.

## First seen in...

Rohan's introduction. Despite having been defeated by Koichi mere days earlier, Hazamada treated Koichi with no hostility and vice versa. They even bonded together over their shared enthusiasm for manga. Their interactions from then on proceeded to parallel the closeness of a friendship dating years back.

## Trivia

* Some have openly preferred Hazakoi to Yukakoi due to Yukako's obsessive nature towards Koichi, and implied that Koichi's relationship with Hazamada would be less forced and creepy.
* In Rohan's introductory episode, Hazamada and Koichi hug/wrap their arms around each other multiple times with no hesitation signifying their fast growth on eachother.
* HazaKoi is the embodiment of the "opposites attract" trope, in terms of both character design and personality.
* Hazamada still held a grudge against Josuke, which is made clear when he accidentally called him "bastard" when referring to him with Koichi. This means that while he does have the ability to hold grudges, he made the deliberate decision not to with Koichi.
* Hazamada and Koichi are relatively the same height, with Hazamada being only a few unspecified inches taller. (Which is ironic since he referred to Koichi as a "shrimp" in the anime, and a "small fry" in the manga)

Donapucci

**DonaPucci** is the pairing of Donatello Versus and Enrico Pucci from the sixth part of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, Stone Ocean.

## Popularity Level

Although it ranks very low in popularity when it comes to Stone Ocean ships (only having 15 fics on AO3) it is still Donatello's most popular ship. It's also managed to gain a very small yet dedicated fanbase among more hardcore Pucci fans.

## First Seen In

Donatello and Pucci are first seen interacting in chapter 118 of the manga, and episode 28 of the Stone Ocean anime.

## Reasons People Ship It

Pucci showing clear preferential treatment towards Donatello over his brothers, choosing to send them out on their own to fight Jolyne & Co, while keeping Donatello by his side as a bodyguard.

When left alone together, there is a scene of Pucci spoon-feeding Donatello hospital food so he can taste if it contains something Pucci's allergic too. After Pucci realizes they both share an acute sense of taste, Pucci asks that he stands so he can check any more bodily similarities they share, this scene culminating in their faces drawing so close their noses touch. Without context given many chapters later as to what the point of all that was, this scene seems very strange, but even with it this was still very gay.

Most DonaPucci shippers also enjoy DioPucci, and with Donatello's strikingly similar personality and somewhat similar physical appearance to his father, many believe Pucci would find him attractive.

Their eventual falling out with each other is sometimes jokingly compared to a dramatic break up.

Anime Shujin

**Anime Shujin** (アニメ修人, *Shūjin Anime*?), also known as, **Puppet Head** (マンガマン, *Ningyō no Atama*?) is a student in Class 1-B at U.A. High School, where he got in through official recommendations, and is currently training there to become a Pro Hero.

## Appearance

Anime is a very short young man with fair skin and a googly eyed hand as a head and neck which can change shape and display his thoughts in sign language, though he can already talk.

## Abilities

### Quirk

**Puppet** (アルファ, *Arufa*?): Anime's Quirk allows him to materialize letters from the throat of his puppet head to spell a word and then manifest the word into realistic looking objects.

Once these objects are created the letters are put under his control which can manifest the effects of the phenomenon that the sound suggests.

The only drawback is that the overuse of his Quirk can cause him to get an incredibly sore throat

Jotahan

Edit of Rohan & Jotaro's ATB renders. Edited by fandom user Race Kars

## Reasons people ship it

There are several reasons Jotahan has been gaining popularity. In no particular order:

* Lots of people like this ship is because they think it has a lot of comedic potential. The dynamic between an arrogant and overly curious mangaka with a serious and reserved marine biologist has lead to many headcanon.
* In the recent chapter of the josuke/hol horse spinoff its revealed that Josuke once caught the two in the middle of a round of "wrestling" shorty after poor Josuke was bound to a wheelchair with a bomb attached.
* Adding to the first point, people also entertain the idea of Rohan trying to get Jotaro as another way to annoy Josuke.
DiaPio

**DiaPio** is a slash ship between **Diavolo** (ディアボロ *Diaboro*) is the main antagonist of Part 5, & **Vinegar** **Doppio** (ヴィネガー・ドッピオ *Vinegā Doppio*) the secondary antagonist and Diavolo's alter.

Both characters are from Vento Aureo the 5th installment of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure.

### Relationship

Diavolo appears to have a lot of affection for Doppio: he put Doppio in a dangerous position as the underboss instead of a typical subordinate, he frequently gave Doppio directions to success and even warned him to stay away from Nero and encouraged him to flee, and most perplexing of all, he has a habit of sometimes calling Doppio "[his] (cute) Doppio" with the more practical "watashi wa" pronoun."

While Doppio never learned the truth between them, he holds Diavolo in great respect and always refers to him as "Boss" - though whether or not Doppio knew Diavolo's real name is unknown. Doppio also appears to be Diavolo's gopher, which he takes pride in given how loyal he was to the point of stubbornness, and he seemed to follow most of Diavolo's orders when he remembered them.

### Popularity

This ship is not very popular and is sometimes seen as a crackship due to the participants being alternate personalities of each other.
Fugonara

Pannacotta Fugo and Narancia Ghirga (featured by deviantart artist boringmio)

Until recently it had remained in the list of most popular ships in the Jojo's Bizarre Adventure category on Ao3, until it was eventually overshadowed by other part 5 ships like BruAbba and GioMis

## First seen in:

## Relationship in Stardust Crusaders

They are not shown to have a relationship through out Stardust Crusaders. Although, Dio hires Hol Horse to kill Joseph, Jotaro, Kakyoin, Avdol, and Polnareff. That is the closest to a Relationship they have throughout the part.
Jolysui

**Jolysui** is a ship between Jolyne Cujoh and Narciso Anasui.

Both are characters in the 6th installment of the Jojo's Bizarre Adventure series, Stone Ocean.

## Jolysui

Jolyne Cujoh and Narciso Anasui featured on a clipped cover of Stone Ocean

## Popularity Level

Jolynasui is a good straight ship, so people accept it, this ship might be canon, because Irene, (AU Jolyne) is dating Anakiss, Anasui's counterpart. It also draws a lot of hate due to Anasui's "creepy" behavior.
Shinoko

## Introduction

Shinoko is the ship between Tomoko Higashikata and Shinobu Kawajiri from Part 4: Diamond Is Unbreakable. The origins of this ship are unknown, as it is a fairly rare ship. It seems to have a rather small fandom surrounding it, though the pair still has great fanart.

## Reasons Why People Like The Ship

* They are both milfs
* Both are strong women
* Both play some role in the plot and are side characters

Tomoko is single and Shinobu's husband is a literal psychopathic killer with a hand fetish, so why not just divorce the dude and get married to a hot and caring milf with a big butt?

## Trivia

* The alternate ship name is Tomonobu or Tomoshino.

DioKira

## Introduction

Diokira is a ship between Part 1/3's Dio Brando and Part 4's Yoshikage Kira. The origins of this ship are unknown, however some of the popularity of the ship could be attributed to a piece of art from Araki's 2000 artbook, *JOJO A-GO!GO!* featuring Kira's and Dio's stands dancing together.

## Reasons why people like the ship

* Similar to Kiraboss, they are both main villains
* They are opposites. For example, Dio's goal was to take over the world while Kira's was to live a quiet life.
* One might like twitter user @umikochannart's depiction of the two in her fanart

* They are both sexy and blonde

## Fun Facts

* As of writing, there are 20 fanfictions tagged under Dio Brando/Kira Yoshikage on fanfiction website Archive of Our Own

BruAbba

Leone Abbacchio and Bruno Bucciarati

## Ship

The ship BruAbba consists of Bruno Bucciarati(ブローノ・ブチャラティ *Burōno Bucharati*) Leader of a group in Passione and Leone Abbacchio(レオーネ・アバッキオ *Reōne Abakkio*) Former cop and member of Passione

Both characters are from Vento Aureo the 5th installment of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure.

## Popularity Level

BruAbba is extremely popular among Jojo fans, especially in the western fandom, being the 2nd most popular Jojo ship on Ao3 and the most popular one in its part. This is the most popular ship for Bruno, as well as on Abbacchio's side. This ship rivals with BruGio. Fans of this pairing show their support for this ship through fanart, doujinshis, headcanons, comics, and edits.

## First Seen In:

Manga: Vento Aureo, chapter 20: "The Mystery Behind Soft Machine, Part 2"

Anime: Golden Wind, episode 6: "Moody Blues' Counterattack"

## Key Moments

Leone Abbachio first encountered Bruno Bucciarati when he was visiting the abandoned shop where his former police partner died. Bruno Bucciarati being the first one to step forth and comfort the former cop now Passione member after being asked by Bruno to join him.

> *"What's important isn't the end result, it's how you get there,"*
>
>

> *"Join my team. Don't die bound by your past."*
>
>

> -Bruno Bucciarati to Abbachio GW ep6
>
>

It also is shown that Abbacchio trusts Bruno, seen in episode 6 as he believes Bruno can solve the problem as he was being dragged by the enemy stand. After defeating the stand, Abbachio and Bruno shared a moment.

In episode 21 when Bruno announced to the team that he betrayed Passione, Abbacchio decided to join along with Narancia Ghirga and Guido Mista despite knowing what would happen to traitors.

> *"The only time I'm ever at ease is when I'm with you Bucciarati."*
>
>

> -Leone Abbachio to Bruno GW ep21
>
>

When Abbachio died, Bruno put up a calm front as he tried to lead his team but failed a bit as he bit his lower lips hard until it bled, mourning over Abbacchio's death.

## Fanon

The Bruabba fanon really differs from the fans and shippers but a well-known fanon of them explores the team mom team dad trope.

Bucciarati being the supportive mom and adopting the team meanwhile Abbachio being the goth big breasted wine dad whose makeup is on fleek.

Honestly, I think some shippers ship this cause they want or need a mom/dad couple in Team Bucciarati and they fit the most.

## Reasons many ship it

Many ship it due to Abbachio's unwavering loyalty to Bruno and how he stayed with him to the end.

Bruno always mentions Abbacchio separately from the other members in the gang.

Another reason is the Team Mom and Team Dad dynamic; It all varies from shipper to shipper.

SorLato

### Popular level

Typically a background ship for its part

Occasionally referred to as **SorGela** but more commonly called **SorLato**, this ship is between the members of La Squadra Esecuzioni (a facet of the gang Passione) Sorbet and Gelato.

Both are characters in the 5th installment of the Jojo's Bizarre Adventure series, Vento Aureo.
GeoRio

**GeoRio** is the ship between George Joestar and Dario Brando from Phantom Blood, the first part of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure.

## Reasons people ship it

This ship is often liked ironically and centered around two jokes:

* The first one is that George let Dario keep his wedding ring after he stole it, something that people have joked was prompted because he fell in love with Dario.
* The other one comes from Jonadio shippers. Usually, people who are against the ship consider Jonathan and Dio "adoptive brothers" but sometimes they use the wrong word and call them "stepbrothers". This mistake became a running joke among Jonadio shippers who like to say these people ship George and Dario.
JosuHan

This ship consists of both Josuke Higashikata and Rohan Kishibe, both from the fourth installment of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, Diamond is Unbreakable.

## Popularity

Josuhan is largely popular when Eastern audiences and draws more criticism in the West due to the age gap and the characters blatant dislike for each other. It is the most popular Diamond is Unbreakable ship in the Eastern fandom, it has the 6th highest number of Ao3 fanfictions for a JJBA ship (1,824 as of October 16th, 2022) worldwide.

## Reasons for Popularity

Josuhan is a ship of the popular enemies to lovers trope. Rohan often acts (as the fandom interprets it) tsundere towards Josuke, for the most part seeming to "hate" him. However, on one occasion in Part 4, Diamond is Unbreakable, he risked his life to save Josuke, whom then did the same. Later in the Rohan spin off's it show's the two of them often hanging out with one another with out conflict, showing that they both seem to care about each other to some extent. Furthermore, in the OVA tour for Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan, Josuke sent Rohan a bouquet of flowers in congratulations for his tour, yet again showing that they seem to care about one another. The flowers themselves send an overly romantic message in Hanakotoba, otherwise known as the Japanese language of flowers, which is taken very seriously by the Japanese, hinting at the possibility of Josuhan being semi-canon.
