On Jul 5, 2018, there was an announcement about [Jojo Bizarre Adventure:
Golden
Wind](https://myanimelist.net/anime/37991/JoJo_no_Kimyou_na_Bouken__Ougon_no_Kaze)
that will be aired in October 2018.

When I see the first pic of the anime version of Jojo part 5, the color of
Giorno's clothes looks like this.

While originally, Giorno's clothes look like this:

I know that some of Jojo part 5 manga's cover has this color (pink) for his
clothes like volume [54](https://comicvine.gamespot.com/jojo-s-bizarre-
adventure-54-gold-experience-strike/4000-399623/) and volume
[55](https://comicvine.gamespot.com/jojo-s-bizarre-adventure-55-battle-in-
venice/4000-399624/) but it's only the cover, like many [other Jojo manga's
cover](https://comicvine.gamespot.com/jojo-no-kimyo-na-boken/4050-50131/) that
have many colorful clothes, background, lips and so.

Why did they choose pink for Giorno's clothes?

question
jojos-bizarre-adventure
Why is Giorno's clothes color different between the manga and anime version?


**Why not blue?**  
Because apparently there is no canon color scheme to JoJo's.

Hirohiko Araki stated in [notes from his lecture from
2006](http://www.comipress.com/article/2006/07/25/516)

> When Jojo became an OVA, one of the animators asked Araki "what color if
> Jotaro?" however Araki had no such concept. He colors everything based on
> calculation. For example, in Volume 54 Giorno's clothes are pink, but in
> Volume 63 they are blue.

[As praraphrased by Super Eyepatch
Wolf](https://youtu.be/8xFZgPclu3c?t=18m24s), "he doesn't view his world or
characters in any consistant color palet".

**Why pink?**  
Dunno. Looks good on him? I'm betting the production staff had some freedom
when it came to the color palet given Araki's attitude towards colors.  
Also, as stated, the color scheme has been seen in past media such as the
covers mentioned.

The production staff may have also wanted to differentiate themselves from
previous color choises. The blue was the color of choise for the [DIGITAL
COLORED COMICS](http://jojo.wikia.com/wiki/JOJO-D) version, which I think the
picture in the question originates from, as well as games such as All Star
Battle and Eyes of Heaven.
