johnny

Johnny is happy-go-lucky, much like Yosaku. Johnny tends to be the more serious and occasionally the more honorable of the pair, though he acts silly around Yosaku from time to time.
Johnny is also dimwitted to some extent and while he knows much information
he seems to be greatly misinformed about many things. This includes rumors of "Hawk-Eyes" visiting the Baratie regularly when the actual story was about "Drunk-Eyes",I41 to not knowing how to cure Yosaku (and not knowing what ailed him in the first place). Johnny occasionally says that he would lose or had lost by a close margin against an opponent far stronger than he is, such as Luffy or Arlong, indicating some arrogance. Johnny is also very brave seeing how he got ready to attack Mihawk when he fought Zoro. Johnny also stands up for what he believes in, this is seen when he fights Dick the Mountain Whale.
He also has a cowardly side to him, as seen when he not only tied up Zoro to prevent him from assaulting Arlong Park, but through his willingness to simply abandon him to the fish-men to run off
to safety with Usopp.
[51 However, when
he is spurred, he is brave enough to against Arlong and his crew and wise enough to know his action could lead the villagers suffering. Johnny's bravery was still not enough to defeat the Arlong Pirates, leaving the Straw Hat Pirates with no other choice but to defeat
Arlong and his crew on their own. One quirk he shares with Yosaku, perhaps out of pride, is always stating that any fight he loses, he lost only by a hair. He is yosaku’s best friend. Both swordsmen respect and admire power,
as proven by their constant praising of Zoro's power, and later the Straw Hat
Pirates power. Anyone who has earned their respect will be acknowledged by them as "Aniki" (brother) or "Aneki" (sister).
