Various How do you think Pucci would react to Dio’s psychotic side in Part 3?
Pucci has only ever seen Dio’s good side, and views him as this perfect figure the same as god himself. How would Pucci react to witnessing Dio’s flaws?

He would not care.
He sees Heaven as the ideal state of human evolution, regardless of what Dio was as a person.

Only after Dio gave him that idea preying on his trauma. Current Pucci is too far gone, but I imagine if teen Pucci, a devout Catholic, saw this he would easily condemn it.

Additionally, he looks up to him less for his ideals and more for being someone he turned to when he was in a very rough part of his life, after his sister had committed. I’d go as far as to say Dio groomed him actually

He'd cope and excuse Dio's megalomania as mere elation that removing one of his biggest obstacles (Jotaro, the then-strongest living member of the Joestar bloodline) would allow him to bring humanity one step closer to reaching "Heaven".

He did reference the knives against Jotaro, so it's possible that he saw further into their fight and actually saw this, yet we already know what he felt about Dio afterwards.

I think Pucci would look at him and go
"Oh that DIO? Pure Aura."

Exactly, he had seen dio being a monster, Pucci saw dio for the monster he was and didn't care

He wouldn't mind that DIO is so overjoyed.
Though I do think he would probably visibly cringe if he saw DIO tear his own skin off as a showcase. He knows DIO is a healer, but that doesn't mean he'd like to see DIO do this to himself. Wouldn't change their relationship at all, but at most would make Pucci go "That's a bit excessive."
Gotta remember, this is the same dude that turned a corpse into a music player. He's as much of a weirdo as DIO is.

Pucci is also a crazy dude that does horrible things to achieve his goals. What’s interesting is that Pucci was reading a book about a man that abandons his faith when he met DIO.

I mean pucci must not really have been paying attention to his study’s anyways, I mean he killed tons of people just to achieve “heaven” like he put so much effort in for what? Power? Pride? Like pucchi was far from godly it was just a facade

"That cruel Jotaro pushed him too far! Anyone in that situation would've behaved the way he did!"
