Anime Costume JJBA Kira Yoshikage Cosplay Slim Tie - Purple

Product Information

Squishy Wizard: Without his bombs, Killer Queen's close combat capabilities are relatively subpar in comparison to Star Platinum or Crazy Diamond and he goes down relatively easy after a few punches. Partially a case of Overshadowed by Awesome, as Killer Queen is able to beat Echoes Act 3 in close combat; it's just that few Stands can trade blows with Star Platinum or Crazy Diamond and come out on top. Slipping out undetected, Kira begins to walk home in pride. However, Harvest alerts Shigechi of the "thief" and meets up with Kira, angrily asking what a stranger is doing with his lunch bag. When Kira attempts to bluff his way out, Shigechi uses Harvest to pull on the bag, ripping it open and allowing the hand to fall out. [3] With the evidence revealed, Kira reveals his Stand, Killer Queen; threatening to erase Shigechi. Shigechi snatches a suspicious 100 yen coin from him, which Kira reveals to have become a bomb with Killer Queen's power and detonates the coin right by his opponent's face. [4] Having barely managed to hide the corpse from Shinobu, Kira then learns that Rohan and the others now have "Kosaku" as one of their suspects. Under such desperate circumstances, Yoshihiro suggests to leave Morioh but Yoshikage vehemently refuses to become a fugitive and lose all hope of a peaceful life. Yoshikage is suddenly impaled by Yoshihiro's Arrow, giving Killer Queen a new ability. A Love to Dismember: Has an erotic fascination with women's hands, but has absolutely no use for the rest of the woman's body. (In fact, he typically has Killer Queen dispose of everything but a hand immediately.) Take it from there... Pet the Dog: After dealing with Stray Cat, he remains at home to make sure Shinobu is okay even if it meant that he would be late for work. Given Kira's obsession with not wanting to stand out, which includes being late for work, that's saying something.

Adaptational Early Appearance: Has several cameos in the anime before his proper debut. His full appearance is during the Red Hot Chilli Pepper arc as an ordinary bystander. Shout-Out: Apart from the ones to both Queen (Stand name and ability names) and David Bowie (appearance), a fan analysis of the influence of music on the series makes a comparison between the lyrics of their joint work song "Under Pressure" and the later chapter arcs told from Kira's point-of-view after he goes into hiding as Kosaku. And it fits.The English dub turns this up when a furious Okuyasu calls him a "cat-eyed freak" during their final confrontation.

Impoverished Patrician: Kira mentions that he's descended from one of the Samurai noble families that used to live in Morioh, until his grandfather squandered the family wealth and honor. Unusually for the trope, Kira doesn't seem to mind this much at all, and is just pleased he inherited a nice house in which to live out his quiet, pleasant serial killer lifestyle. The Shadow Knows: In a Freeze-Frame Bonus of the anime, when Kira-as-Kosaku enters the bath to meet with Hayato, his shadow shows Killer Queen instead of his own with the thumb ready on the trigger. In All Star Battle R's ASB Mode, he has a unique interaction with Anasui, where he derides the "hero" for dismembering his girlfriend out of anger, stating that when he does it, it's at least because he has a fetish for women's hands (as if that's any better). Kira's TV anime voice actor, Toshiyuki Morikawa, also voices Diavolo in the Bandai Namco video games.Stupid Evil: What makes him so scary is that he takes great lengths to avert this. He avoids conflict when possible and just wants to get the job done. There is only one case where he plays it straight. When he taunts Jotaro. Touch of Death: One touch from Killer Queen means you are already dead since you've already become a bomb. The only defenses against this ability is that Kira can only make one bomb at a time and that Killer Queen can't directly turn Stands into bombs.

Only one of his first bomb can be active at a time. This is particularly notable when Kira upgrades himself with Stray Cat. He can either set a mine or shoot a grenade, but not both, and the fact that he stops doing the latter clues Hayato in to the fact that he's done the former. Kosaku is on his way home from work at the same time Yoshikage Kira is fleeing from Josuke and his friends. He grabs Kosaku from the street because of their similar builds and drags him into Aya Tsuji's beauty salon, Cinderella. Kira kills Kosaku and then forces Aya to use her Stand to switch his face and fingerprints with Kosaku's. After Josuke and his friends arrive at the salon, Kosaku and Aya's bodies are completely disposed of with an explosion from Killer Queen. [9] Asshole Victim: As he struggles to get up after being pummeled by Star Platinum, he's run over by an ambulance car by mere accident. While everyone around is appalled, his death elicited no remorse given the bastard he was. Ignore the Fanservice: Does this whenever Shinobu tries to seduce him. It's not that Kira is indifferent to it, but it's because his means of expressing arousal is through violence, as he was literally seconds away from throttling Shinobu and only stops once he regains his senses. As a result, he tries to keep his distance away from Shinobu as he does not want to attract attention to himself. Diamond is Unbreakable Episode 36: Another One Bites the Dust, Part 2 (Disguised as Kosaku Kawajiri)You Are Already Dead: Once Bites the Dust has been triggered, it's already game over for the target no matter how they try to resist. Killer Queen has already entered the target's pupil to blow them up.

While The World exemplifies the notions of radiating golden and shiny metallic elements that signify a divine appearance; Killer Queen is associated with darkness with various skull motifs and has a very skeletal-feline appearance. Justified, as DIO is a god-complex vampire that wants to be well-renown, while Yoshikage Kira wants to hide his true nature in the shadows of society. Skeletons in the Coat Closet: His clothes and Stand have cat skull emblems to symbolize his nature as a Serial Killer and his Stand.

Rohan Kishibe: Rohan was at first only curious about the local murderer, but after learning that he almost died by his hand and that Reimi protected him, his efforts for finding Kira became more personal. As an enemy, Kira preferred to avoid any confrontation with him. He was also aware of Rohan's status as a famous mangaka. When Rohan fell victim to Bites the Dust, Kira took great joy in his death. Shinobu Kawajiri: While Kira impersonated Kosaku, his failed attempts at acting ordinary were mistaken by Shinobu for a change toward a bolder demeanor from her husband. Charmed, Shinobu became attracted to her husband, not knowing that it was Kira. Kira on the other hand first struggled not to act on his murderous impulses on Shinobu and tried his best not to attract attention, thus acting gently with her. As time passed, notably after protecting her from Stray Cat, Kira noted a burgeoning affection for her. Logical Weakness: To remotely detonate Killer Queen's bomb, he has to mimic the motion of pushing the button with his hand. He can be prevented from setting off the bomb by someone or something immobilizing his hand, like Echoes pinning it to the ground.
