So, as I stated in a post I made a few days ago, I am going to be revamping my JoJo fighting game concepts. As I did in the beginning, I'm going to start with both variations of Yoshikage Kira. Hope you enjoy.
1. Yoshikage Kira (classic version)
Kira's overall strategy will be to make each explosion count. Wether you're using First Bomb, Coin Bomb or Contact Bomb, it's best to assure a critical hit whenever possible. Sheer Heart Attack is a useful tool, but can be easily baited and avoided by certain characters like Avdol and Koichi's ACT 2 and ACT 3.
Special moves:
-The First Bomb: This is a move that will give the opponent the First Bomb Charge, a status effect that, if First Bomb is used again, will cause the opponent to explode and be dealt 40 HP of damage. This, when active, limits Kira's abilities. In particular, he can't use moves like Coin Bomb and Contact Bomb, or anything associated with the First Bomb.
-Coin Bomb: Kira will flick out a coin which he can detonate at any time, even when midair, doing 25 HP of damage to the opponent upon detonation. This qualifies as a First Bomb charge, meaning that certain moves will be out of access. Touching the bomb will result in an automatic detonation.
-Contact Bomb: If Kira is near an Interactable Setpiece, he can set a bomb on it that will activate when the oppinent hits the setpiece, doing 38 to 40 damage upon detonation. If Kira so chooses to, he can detonate the bomb prematurely, making it functionally similar to the second ability involving setpieces, Surface Bomb.
-Surface Bomb: It has similar properties to Contact Bomb, but without the "hitting the setpiece" part.
-BASTAAAARD!!!: This attack will be a barrage which gets closer for around 5 seconds, with the opponent becoming bomb charged if they are hit with it. Kira will remain completely still as the barrage goes on, making this unable to be tandemed. The barrage will do 5 damage per hit.
-Counter 1: "You need to be more like me!": Kira will punch the opponent after they try to attack him, before walking up to them and slamming their head into the ground repeatedly, doing around 22 damage.
Counter 2: "Too slow...": If the opponent tries to attack Kira, they will be donutted by Killer Queen, doing 40 damage.
-Sheer Heart Attack: Kira will release Sheer Heart Attack to pursue the opponent endlessly for about 2 minutes. If the opponent touches Sheer Heart Attack, it will explode and do 44 damage. Sheer Heart Attack can be mislead by heat-based attacks like Hamon and Magician's Red's fire, and stopped via the 3 FREEZE of Echoes ACT 3.
-Super: "I will erase you from this world!": Kira will raise his and Killer Queen's hand in a similar fashion to when he was about to explode Koichi before swiping downwards with KQ. If the hit lands, the oppinent becomes charged with a high-power bomb that will deal around 60 damage upon detonation (to not break this ability, every character has 200 HP).
Intros
1. Kira summons a shadowy Killer Queen, before having the Stand reveal itself from the shadows
2. Kira stands menacingly before the opponent, proclaiming his name and age to them
3. Kira looks at his latest victim's hand which fell from the ripped paper bag he's holding, before angrily looking at the opponent and putting the hand in his coat's breast pocket
4. Sheer Heart Attack rolls in front of Kira, who returns it to Killer Queen's left hand
Victories
1. Kira pulls out his victim's hand, affectionately pressing it to his face and proclaiming that he shall be sleeping soundly tonight
2. Kira looks at the camera, proclaiming that the audience has "seen him", before Killer Queen touches the camera and presses the switch, causing an explosion animation
3. Kira holds his victim's hand as it disintegrates from Killer Queen's ability
4. Kira checks his watch, before adjusting his tie and walking offscreen
Skins
Default: Kira's normal outfit with a green shirt, purple coat and pants and a Killer Queen-themed tie
Alt. 1: An outfit with a teal shirt, lighter purple coat and the geeky-ass tie Kira wore in his intro arc
Alt. 2: The outfit that Kira wore when he was first introduced, complete with a white overcoat and dark green pants (or whatever the hell color they were, I haven't watched part 4 in a while)
2. Kosaku Kawajiri (Final arc Kira)
Kosaku-Kira's overall playstyle will be largely the same as normal Kira's, but with higher focus on defense and the advantage of a higher range due to Stray Cat's air bubbles. Alongside this, he has added challenge in the form of his powerful super: Bites The Dust. If you know what you're doing, Bites The Dust can be a useful tool in a multitude of ways. You can either dodge attacks and wait for the Kill Timer to goes up, or you can reset the round and summon back Killer Queen, effectively giving you a second chance to win. Your counters are also quite useful and can allow you to get an advantage easily.
Special moves:
-The First Bomb: The First Bomb is fundamentally the same as Kira Classic's Frist Bomb, except the damage output is bumped up to 50 HP.
-Rock Bomb: This attack will replace the Coin Bomb, with Kira now placing a rock on the ground and charging it with Killer Queen's bomb. The Rock Bomb works about the same as the Coin, in that anyone who touches it will automatically set it off and Kira can detonate it manually. However, this time the bomb will do 30 damage.
-Contact and Surface Bomb: The same as Kira Classic's.
-Contact Air Bomb: Kira will release an air bubble from Killer Queen's stomach cavity, which will continually go where Kira is facing until it either goes offscreen, hits the opponent or Kira detonates it. The damage output is 45 to 49 HP of damage.
-Remote Air Bomb: Kira will release an air bubble that will move in the direction the player pushes the joystick/button. During this process, Kira cannot move and is limited to only stand there, giving the enemy potential to strike. The damage output is, again, 45 to 49 damage.
-Counter 1: Stray Cat's Defense: When the counter is active and the enemy attacks, an air bubble will form between Kira and the enemy's hand, sending the enemy backwards and doing 5 damage. Kira will then launch out an air bomb while doing the "trigonometry pose" he did in the manga, before detonating the bomb and doing 54 damage.
-Counter 2: "What would your name be?": If the opponent attacks Kira while this counter is active, Kira will grab their wrist before grabbing their face, exploding them and walking by in a similar manner to when he killed Minako's boyfriend. This attack will do 50 damage.
-Super: BITES THE DUST: After the Super flash appears, Kira will be holding Hayato Kawajiri by the head, with the shadowy figure of Killer Queen: Bites The Dust looming over them both, ready to push the switch. If the opponent is in Bites The Dust's range within 5 seconds (and btw, the range is pretty huge), Killer Queen: Bites The Dust will appear in front of the camera and push the switch, resulting in the round resetting. This is where the third ability truly begins, as once the round resets, the opponent is put on a Kill Timer. If they don't kill Kira or make him bring back Killer Queen before the 30 second mark (if we're working with a 99 second timer), they will explode and Kira will instantly win. During Bites The Dust's activation, Kira cannot use any of Killer Queen's moves, severely nerfing his damage output and making him more vulnerable to block breaks and other attacks. He can't use his counters, combos, First Bomb or anything. He just has his fists to defend himself, but can return Killer Queen at any time, undoing the Kill Timer and returning the round to normal.
Intros
1. Kira will lift up Killer Queen's abdomen, revealing Stray Cat within it
2. Kira takes his watch and puts it in his breast pocket
3. Kira puts the school hat on Hayato, who proceeds to run offscreen
4. Kira erases the hand of who is presumably Minako, before looking up and being shocked at the opponent's presence
Victories
1. Kira laughs hysterically at his victory, similarly to how he laughed when he though he activated Bites The Dust
2. Kira adjusts his tie and looks around, as if to assure no one saw his crime
3. Kira picks up his phone, doing the "Hai! Hai!" thing from the scene where "his" boss called him.
4. Kira looms over Hayato similarly to how he did in Rohan's death, with Killer Queen: Bites The Dust looming along with Kira
Skins
Default: The appearance Kira had in the final battle in the anime, complete with the combed back hair, white suit, purple shirt and green-and-black Killer Queen tie
Alt. 1: The attire which Kira wore in the Stray Cat episode, with spiked up hair, a red shirt and a more black Killer Queen tie
Alt. 2: An outfit consisting of a blue shirt, white pants and a tie similar to Kira's alt A tie in All-Star Battle
Alt. 3: The same outfit he wore in the scene where he tried to perfect Kawajiri's handwriting
Let me know what y'all think of it
