Shizuka Joestar is an infant found abandoned in Morioh and taken in by Joseph Joestar during Diamond is Unbreakable. She is a Stand user whose power, Achtung Baby, turns her and her surroundings invisible.
Shizuka is an infant girl whose features can only be seen once makeup is applied, at which point Joseph and Josuke both find her adorable. She is bundled in soft, pale baby clothes, topped with a little bobbled knit cap, and fitted with oversized dark glasses meant to conceal her unseen eyes.
As babies go, Shizuka is even-tempered. Her Stand, Achtung Baby, kicks in whenever she is startled, frightened, or upset, wrapping her and everything within a surrounding bubble in invisibility, the reach growing along with her distress. She settles most easily in the company of Joseph Joestar.
Shizuka turns up abandoned on a Morioh roadside, her invisibility the likely reason no one had spotted the lost infant. Joseph Joestar and Josuke Higashikata stumble onto her and end up in a frantic search to pin her down, during which Joseph slashes his own wrist so his blood can trace her position. The act convinces Josuke that his father is genuinely willing to risk himself for a helpless stranger, reshaping how he sees the old man. Joseph takes the baby in, naming her a Joestar even though it means courting the suspicion of his wife Suzi Q, who assumes she is yet another of his illegitimate children.
She drifts through several later episodes, often cradled in Joseph's arms, and her power causes a scene at the Kameyu department store when Rohan Kishibe's camera flash frightens her into blanking out herself and her surroundings. Her most active moment comes during Rohan's duel with Ken Oyanagi, a contest of rock-paper-scissors: Rohan turns his Heaven's Door against the infant and uses her own Stand to force Ken into throwing rock, clinching the game even after Ken briefly holds her hostage. She vanishes for a time following that fight before being recovered. Her true parents are never located, and she stays with the Joestars through the rest of the story.

Naruto vs Luffy with the twist nobody asked for: Luffy tickled Hinata on date night, and she kind of liked it. We break down the whole fight and commit to a winner....

There are no women on Namek. That isn't an oversight, it's the biology. Why we handed Piccolo the one thing his own species rules out, and why it had to be trap soul....
Shizuka Joestar is not a biological Joestar. She is an infant found abandoned in Morioh and adopted by Joseph Joestar, who names her a Joestar even though it raises his wife Suzi Q's suspicion that she is another of his illegitimate children.
Shizuka Joestar's features can only be seen once makeup is applied, and she wears oversized dark glasses to conceal her unseen eyes, since her Stand Achtung Baby turns her invisible whenever she is startled or upset.

After vanishing during Rohan Kishibe's rock-paper-scissors duel with Ken Oyanagi, Shizuka Joestar is recovered a time later and remains with the Joestars.
Shizuka Joestar's Stand is Achtung Baby, which turns her and everything within a growing bubble around her invisible whenever she is frightened or distressed.
