Yoshikage Kira (JoJolion)

Yoshikage Kira is a figure introduced in Part VIII: JoJolion.

Appearance
Kira was a man of slim to medium build and seemingly average height. He was handsome, with dark eyes and fine features, and wavy black hair of an irregular, generally chin length. According to Ojirou Sasame, he had beautiful hands.

He wore a sailor uniform much like the Protagonist's, though with a tasseled beret or bonnet.

Personality
Kira was a narcissist, keeping sculptures of his own hands around his house, apparently as documents to their ideal state. A copy of the Mona Lisa hangs from a wall in his living room, alluding to the former Kira, indicating a similar fascination with beautiful hands.

From what is observed in Kira's apartment, he would seem to have held certain obsessive-compulsive tendencies; keeping a stock of entirely green foods, and like the original Kira, shelves of containers of his fingernails in his bathroom, labeled by date.

Sasame details an occasion when Kira spoke to him in a deliberately confusing and insulting manner. Kira is implied to have bene deeply cruel, psychopathic or sadistic, when by speaking he somehow manipulated Sasame into seriously harming himself.

Stand, Abilities
Kira had a Stand similar to Killer Queen. While the appearance of the Stand is like that of Killer Queen, its ability was to create bubbles similar to the protagonist's that explode upon contact. Part of this Stand is fused to the Protagonist's when the two are buried together, the result being Soft & Wet.

It is suggested that he had hypnotic powers of persuasion of some sort by the extreme influence he wielded over Sasame on a past occasion.

Synopsis
Kira was a marine surgeon who was once acquainted with Ojirou Sasame. While Sasame is intoxicated, Kira questions him as to whether surfers are "people of the sea or people of the land", and convinces him soon after to eat all the fingers on his hands.

At some point after his encounter with Sasame, Kira apparently met another person and was buried together with him under the ground. A Wall Eye sprung up around that area, and the Protagonist emerged, with parts of Kira's body and mind fused to his own.

Kira is later found dead near this site, with cardiac arrest as the apparent cause of death. The protagonist and Yasuho subsequently attempt to investigate Kira, especially due to his connections to the Higashikata family.

Trivia

 * Acorrding to the Higashikata family tree, Kira could represent the SBR counterpart of Jotaro Kujo, as well as the original Yoshikage Kira of Part IV.
 * In Chapter 3, when the protagonist and Yasuho Hirose visit his apartment, other references to the original villain can be found, such as bottles of nail clippings and a portrait of the Mona Lisa.
 * Kira's address is listed as 258 Morioh Township, Apartment 204.
 * Where the protagonist is said to have four testicles, Kira in JoJolion had none. This is explained later on when it is revealed that the protagonist is actually a fusion of Kira and another person.
