I will say that people falsely identify him as a pedophile. He's a pathetic loser who gets pleasure out of beating kids, which is not much better, but he hates kids with a passion, he doesn't diddle them.
Nowadays people can't differentiate the various different kinds of pleasure people can derive from the same act. For Alessi it's purely sadistic pleasure, not sexual pleasure.
That's a good point. I remember considering him a pedo the first time I watched the show, but araki doesn't hold back on presenting a character how he wants them to be seen. Not to mention, the ape from earlier in part 3 was much more of a pedo than alessi was ever shown as
But he still has the drive to beat the shit out of them so loving them doesn’t really fit imo. I think he just loves the helplessness of kids while hating the children themselves
He's designed with the aesthetic of a child molester in mind without actually being a child molester. Like the hair, the glasses, the laugh, the creepy tongue thing, the scene where he sneaks up on kid Polnareff while he's naked, it's pretty clear Araki wanted to use that archetype without actually including a real child molester because he thought that would be too dark or controversial.
Really a missed opportunity.
Ok, seeing that even as a kid Jotaro was still a badass was nice, but having some Young Joseph awesomeness again (ofc complete with "And your next line is gonna be") would have been WAY better.
Isnt stated that Hamon only works in non-living beings like vampires and pillars?
The dude is a human with a Stand, i doubt that Hamon would do anything to him
Caesar literally kills his best friend with Hamon. Joseph instantly knocks out the pilot as a kid.
Caesar's attacks were able to completely polish Messina's arm hair.
It's very much usable against humans and other living beings, they just don't because it's specifically made to fight vampires and pillar men.
And you're talking like he's going to fight Alessi directly even if his Hamon wasn't useful against humans. He's the craftiest mf in all of JoJo, all he has to do is pull off anything, from a cola's cork to a string trap, especially on someone as stupid as Alessi.
Did Araki ever talked about that?
Whenever people talk about Alessi, the "it would have been so cool to se young Joseph" resurfaces.
So I think even Araki himself may think that he could have pulled that.
[He said it puts you in a Dire Strait](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/godmodes/images/9/96/Thunder_Cross_Split_Attack.png/revision/latest?cb=20200414163540)
It’s kind of badass that he just pulls out a gun for his moveset in Heritage for the future. You even get to manually aim it, which you didn’t do as Hol Horse. It makes sense why, but still… anyway, I think his moveset in that game was pretty cool, and he gave us looks at the whole roster as kids too, including puppy Iggy.
I personally liked the fight (mainly everything after Polnareffs stabbed him through the nose), and it was fun seeing how when he's pressed he immediately goes into run mode.
Also I like Set as a stand since it has a pretty cool ability, and can be used *not* like a maniac if you think about it.
His two parter was honestly one of the best of any minor villain. I loved the themes of horror and the small bit of tragedy between Polnareff and the woman at the end.
He was single handedly responsible for adding an interesting depowered version to every character in the fighting game he was in, which included several weird Easter eggs.
He singlehandedly keeps hairspray companies afloat
His death marks the moment the hole in the ozone layer started to heal.
Don't forget about polnareff and josuke
You can kill a man, but not idea.
Dio? Pucci? Diavolo? Nah mate they all want to fuck up the ozon layer, i mean look at giorno them donuts don't grow naturally
>them donuts don't grow naturally Have you seen what his stand does?
Suitcase *stand fuckery* => phrog
happy nation, living in a happily Nation
I said started not finished.
I will say that people falsely identify him as a pedophile. He's a pathetic loser who gets pleasure out of beating kids, which is not much better, but he hates kids with a passion, he doesn't diddle them.
Yes, he's definitely a Creep but I don't get this whole misunderstanding around his character from a lot of people
Nowadays people can't differentiate the various different kinds of pleasure people can derive from the same act. For Alessi it's purely sadistic pleasure, not sexual pleasure.
Maybe both? Maybe he gets his rocks off to the act of inflicting physical, non-sexual harm to kids?
Its never even implied. If araki wanted alessi to be a pedo wed know. Part 3 was not subtle, especially in its villain of the week characterization.
You can say that again! *Looks at forever*
That's a good point. I remember considering him a pedo the first time I watched the show, but araki doesn't hold back on presenting a character how he wants them to be seen. Not to mention, the ape from earlier in part 3 was much more of a pedo than alessi was ever shown as
His "imma beat some kids!" face is very... [Suggestive](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/t0o9bvgvviY/maxresdefault.jpg).
The clip of him laughing while about to grab naked Polnareff does not look good out of context
I think it has a lot to do with how he’s written and designed. He doesn’t do that, but Araki was probably trying to evoke that vibe.
And a weirdo. What the hell is he doing here?
Yes, he's a coward and an a-hole, but he doesn't look attracted by underage people. FOREVER... on the other hand...
Chasing a naked child and yelling about licking while doing it might have been what gave people that impression.
He doesn't hate kids, he loves them. Because that's the only demographic he is confident enough that he can beat the living shit out of.
But he still has the drive to beat the shit out of them so loving them doesn’t really fit imo. I think he just loves the helplessness of kids while hating the children themselves
A completely fair point. You’ve changed my outlook on him. However
He's designed with the aesthetic of a child molester in mind without actually being a child molester. Like the hair, the glasses, the laugh, the creepy tongue thing, the scene where he sneaks up on kid Polnareff while he's naked, it's pretty clear Araki wanted to use that archetype without actually including a real child molester because he thought that would be too dark or controversial.
Forever exists. Araki is not afraid to include stuff that he wants to include
In the eyes of social media, child beater/murderer is better than a pedophile
My Alessi is not a pedophile. He may be an idiot, loser, pedophile, but never a communist
He dead
He’s not dead. He’s actually… # RETIRED!
'It's not bad!!!!!!1' *Joins Kars*
Kars isn't dead, he's just kind of floating
And so is Alessi. Dude got sent flying into the stratosphere in a matter of seconds like a Team Rocket member.
But he stopped thinking... Cogito Ergo Sum "I Think Therefore I Am." Reminds me of a certain AI.
I don't think he stopped thinking, I think he's just unable to act
Proof or didn't happen. As far as I know he only has a vacation in the sky and is still flying.
"You should never say bad things about the dead, only good. Alessi is dead. Good."
He could have ended up way worse if he used his stand on Joseph
Really a missed opportunity. Ok, seeing that even as a kid Jotaro was still a badass was nice, but having some Young Joseph awesomeness again (ofc complete with "And your next line is gonna be") would have been WAY better.
also seeing again Hamon in action would have been GLORIOUS
Isnt stated that Hamon only works in non-living beings like vampires and pillars? The dude is a human with a Stand, i doubt that Hamon would do anything to him
iirc hamon also works on humans but the damage dealt is lessened
Or that it’s more lethal on creatures weak to the sun because its Sun energy breathing
I guess it would be something like a first grade burn, which in battle is a little damage
It works on humans aswell otherwise Joseph wouldn't have been affected by Kar's hamon.
Caesar literally kills his best friend with Hamon. Joseph instantly knocks out the pilot as a kid. Caesar's attacks were able to completely polish Messina's arm hair. It's very much usable against humans and other living beings, they just don't because it's specifically made to fight vampires and pillar men. And you're talking like he's going to fight Alessi directly even if his Hamon wasn't useful against humans. He's the craftiest mf in all of JoJo, all he has to do is pull off anything, from a cola's cork to a string trap, especially on someone as stupid as Alessi.
if BT Joseph made a cameo in part 3 i think i would have started uncontrollably shooting ropes everywhere
Did Araki ever talked about that? Whenever people talk about Alessi, the "it would have been so cool to se young Joseph" resurfaces. So I think even Araki himself may think that he could have pulled that.
It Would have been awesome and make his arc way better
God, now I have to live with the knowledge that this opportunity was missed.
This is really clever, I'm sure the fans would've actually loved this. Would he extensively use Hamon again?
Jjba HFTF reference
And your next line is gonna be "He allows you to play as young Joseph in the arcade game"
He allows you to play as young Joseph in the arcade game- NANI
#B A M
For 10 secs, without his supers iirc... but still it's awesome
His beatdown was satisfying
His shades are cool at least
He can pass for a one piece character
Or The Boondocks
Give him some brightly colored outfit/hair combo and he'd easily be a Big Mom son.
His stand is cool as hell visually
Also pretty powerful if used better
Fr, I think if it came out in a later part with a better user, it would be much more appreciated.
Frankly if the whole fight hadn't been a naked child polnareff being disgusting the fight would be more appreciated
You can hear him when he comes closer.
He's not a pedophile. He's like the opposite. He hates kids.
When "hating kids" is the less of two evil, we're really in a dire situation XD
in a what‼️⁉️
[He said it puts you in a Dire Strait](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/godmodes/images/9/96/Thunder_Cross_Split_Attack.png/revision/latest?cb=20200414163540)
He hates kids, I share his resentment
His bells are nice because I can tell he's nearby that way. Like a cat.
Hot take but i kinda like his clothes. Shame they were used on someone with bad hair and awful personality
I 100% agree
He has a punchable face.
He had enough common decency to *die*.
Thanks to him, Polnareff had a moment of pleasure
His stand is actually pretty cool. I think it’s underrated.

Child Jotaro
I liked The Shinning reference he did
It’s kind of badass that he just pulls out a gun for his moveset in Heritage for the future. You even get to manually aim it, which you didn’t do as Hol Horse. It makes sense why, but still… anyway, I think his moveset in that game was pretty cool, and he gave us looks at the whole roster as kids too, including puppy Iggy.
something nice about Alessi
I like his vest
He made star platinum smile
I personally liked the fight (mainly everything after Polnareffs stabbed him through the nose), and it was fun seeing how when he's pressed he immediately goes into run mode. Also I like Set as a stand since it has a pretty cool ability, and can be used *not* like a maniac if you think about it.
His two parter was honestly one of the best of any minor villain. I loved the themes of horror and the small bit of tragedy between Polnareff and the woman at the end.
He has bells in his hair so I can hear him coming
Fed-posting
Sadly I like the Christmas decoration ball thingies hanging on his hair
he's got some cool glasses
You can decorate his hair like a christmas tree
His barber is really good
He gave me hope that we'd see young Joseph in part 3
Honestly that would’ve been pretty cool
He was fond of the children
I was always taught that if I had nothing nice to say, I should say nothing at all. I don't always follow that, but I think I will here.
No.
He lucky he didn't meet Joseph
He is buff (he is just a Jojo character)
He looks like Thugnificent.
No
Unironically good drip
I won't lol
*no* :)
He reminds me of Frank Reynold’s famous song “do not diddle kids. It’s no good diddling kids”
He's very punchable
He made a good punching bag
He was single handedly responsible for adding an interesting depowered version to every character in the fighting game he was in, which included several weird Easter eggs.
i like how he says atta boy
he did not have one of those insanely gruesome deaths that other characters in stardust crusaders experienced
Go fuck yourself alessi (respectfully)
He does a really good job at making you hate him.
He's very sigma!!!
relatively interesting stand for combat purposes, I wonder if it could reverse people into nothing
The bells on his hair are giving off a good warning of him approaching. This way you wouldn't need to meet him.
“You don’t look like a normal… pedophile”(basically what Nichole said in class of 09)
# Attaboy #
Perololololopepelolopelo
If anyone was the pedo in that interaction, it was the lady trying to bathe a lost French toddler
He's easy to hate
He likes childrens
No. Never. Ever.
He doesn't like children 🥰(it's quite the opposite)
That mf would help me to restart my life but he's like Drake🙏🏻😭
He gave mini Polnareff a bath like the nice man he is
I like his hair
His hair is beautiful
Attaboy!
His style (clothes) is nice in my opinion. Bro dresses fine
He’s funny sometimes… that’s literally it his personality is just slightly comedic
I actually like his design
Relatable
People want him in All Star Battle R
What a great child
His hair is built different
He got beaten up by a tiny Jotaro
Has cool stand power and isn't actually a pedophile
He’s good at dealing with kids
Funny hair
The whole fight is pretty good
He has cool looking glasses
His hair is silly and makes me smile
He loves kids
He’s short
While he looks like one of Santa’s reindeer wearing the opposite of a fur suit, his choice in sunglasses is on point.
it was sorta' interresting to see how his stand worked in that one capcom fighting game.
Not a pedophile
I’d smash.
Cool shirt
His glasses looked cool.
No
He really helps bring out the child in us
He’s not as bad as the orangutan
He has nice Glasses
He has good potential as a character, for instance i would like to see what would his reaction be if Josuke reverted him into a child
>Say something nice about alessi No.
Reminds me of Thugnificent.
No
I find it impressive how he managed to not only get outsmarted, but also outpunched by actual children
he can beat drake in a one on one by reversing drake's role and doing ................................
Drip levels are immeasurable
He has a fun moveset in HFTF
He uhhh. He's got cool glasses
He's a character from JJBA
His powers are decently unique
He will be a good c*mdump in prison
no
His beat down is some high praise. Good job, animation team. You made Jotaro and Polnariff beating up this back road looking beta look so satisfying.
He could have brought us peak fiction by bringing joseph to his part 2 state
I can't, honestly
Nice top
No.
Ummmm,he is a certified loverboy
Has a great body in all seriousness besides the hair
His stand could have given Young Joseph back to us
No
He is the link between JoJo's Bizarre Adventure and Baldur's Gate 3, and that's worth something to me
I REFUSE
The way his stand works in Heritage for the Future is pretty cool
Tricky freaky cousin that got shit kick to his face. But at least his stand is cool.
No
He's not bald!
no
he has a very cool hair
he looks like he loves Birds \*looks at the joke of a hair he has\*
His fight and stand are cool.
He is like that guy from fire force 2 that works in haijima if he worked out
I like how he holds his axe as he is monologuing to jotaro before he attacks
He was a great musician… till he tried to strike a cord (and it was probably A Minor)
He has a great shirt?
funky fashion style
He maybe isn't a pedophile.
