Well, J.P. is pretty big. In fact, he's the only fat Digidestined in the whole history of Digimon. He kind of reminds me of a Hiker from Pokémon. If you never played Pokémon, here is a picture of the hiker in Ruby/Sapphire released by Nintendo last year.
J.P. is an easygoing sixth-grader. He's smart, but he doesn't like studying and he likes magic tricks. He's got a major crush on Zoe. And he has a seemingly unlimited supply of chocolate bars. You wonder where he stores them. He must have pretty big pockets. Maybe he's not really fat, it's all storage for chocolate.
