yar, I didn't think Araki left out Kira's backstory so much as there just wasn't much to begin with... he was a psycho! He was always a psycho! He was born crazy! XD Kind of like Annasui! He was ALWAYS FREAKY, even as a kid! XD I think what Araki meant in that interview is he didn't show much history for Kira for those reasons, but I still think that if he HAD, the history would have just been younger Kira being crazy. XD I liked Kira though, he was a very likable yet horrible villain. Very much like Dio, there was an enjoyable sort of horror and awe when watching him do his thing, but I was also really glad to watch him get his ass kicked. XD Jojo is unusual in that I like the villains (even while I hate them); in most series I just hate them, period. I want them off my screen because I find them so distasteful and annoying and sucky. I definitely don't feel any fondness for them.
