**Giorno Giovanna**, born **Haruno Shiobana**, is the main protagonist of *Golden Wind*. He is the fifth protagonist of the series and is often referred to as "**GioGio**."

Giorno is the illegitimate son of DIO, and due to his father possessing the body of one Jonathan Joestar, he inherits the soul of the Joestar spirit. In 2001, Giorno joins the Italian gang of Passione in order to destroy it from the inside and stop them from selling illegal drugs to women and children. Giorno bands together with Bruno Bucciarati, Guido Mista, Leone Abbacchio, Trish Una, Pannacotta Fugo, and Narancia Ghirga as they take down Passione's numerous Stand-Using members, as well as their illusive boss, Diavolo. They eventually take down the gang, and Giorno is inducted as the boss of Passione.

Giorno wields the Stand Gold Experience, which has immense power, and the ability to bestow life onto objects. When his Stand is pierced with the Stand Arrow it evolves into Gold Experience Requiem, with the overpowered ability to reset actions to the point of zero.

## Trivia

* Giorno is the only JoJo to be referred to as "JoJo" in any *canon* media. He is however referred to as "GioGio" in several video games, and in the non-canon light novel *Purple Haze Feedback*.
	+ "GioGio" in Italian, is pronounced the same as we pronounce "JoJo."
* The word giorno in italian means "day," and Giovanna is a girls first name in Italy.
	+ It's possible that his name is Giovanna as a result of Araki originally intending for the protagonist of Part 5 to be female.
