Ax-Crazy: A very subdued example. From his debut alone, you should get the hint that there's something horribly wrong with his psyche. Killer Queen also developed out of his desire for murder, and before he gained it, he was especially brutal to his victims. 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. Cold Ham: Even more so than the other JoJo Big Bads, his villain speeches are spoken in a smooth, conversational tone.

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. Josuke Higashikata: After Shigechi had been killed, Josuke developed a grudge against Kira and swore to avenge Shigechi. While Josuke loathed Kira, the latter didn't think much of Josuke and as an enemy, preferred to avoid any confrontation with him. However, Kira noticed that Josuke's healing power and resourcefulness countered his Killer Queen's bomb power and was precautious against him during their fight. In Kira's eyes, he views Jotaro and Koichi to be this, viewing them responsible for his predicament of being forced to hide under a new identity. It was Koichi who first uncovered Kira's identity by stealing his driver's license, dealing a heavy blow to the serial killer's ego. Conversely, his No-Holds-Barred Beatdown at Jotaro's hands causes Kira to fear him, to the point that he mentions that the reason he awakened Bites the Dust was out of a desire to avoid another encounter with Jotaro.Hayato Kawajiri: Hayato and Kira lived in mutual suspicion, with Hayato noting everything his "father" did that was out of the ordinary, while Kira disliked the company of such a nosy child. When Hayato hears Kira plotting to kill him and then sees him use Killer Queen to kill a couple, their relationship turns antagonistic, culminating in Kira killing Hayato in a fit of rage. When Hayato becomes the catalyst for Kira gaining the sub-bomb Bites the Dust, Kira underestimates Hayato's resourcefulness, dismissing him as harmless at first, which Hayato exploits to lure Kira into the hands of his enemies. Hayato had come to know Kira well and proved a useful source of information during the climactic fight between Josuke and Kira. Groundhog Day" Loop: When pierced by his father's Arrow, he gains an ability called "Bites the Dust", which attaches a miniature Killer Queen to Hayato which will kill anyone who asks him about Kira. After that, the loop will reset. The really scary part is that, unless Kira is killed or compelled to deactivate Bites the Dust note he can't summon Killer Queen to defend himself with Bites the Dust active, each person who died in the last loop will still spontaneously explode in the next one at the same time they first exploded... oh, and if you try to kill yourself to end the loops, you can't, because Bites the Dust is designed to protect whoever it's latched on to from anything other than the detonator, so you and possibly your friends will die, over and over and over again... Diamond is Unbreakable Episode 38: Crazy Diamond Is Unbreakable, Part 2 (Disguised as Kosaku Kawajiri) Still, Kosaku is irresponsible with his money and debts. For instance he bought a house that was too expensive for his means and he owes 260,000 yen to his landlord. [3] His bank account is also empty as he just bought a new car and has to pay for Hayato's tuition. [3] Psycho Pink: Killer Queen is often colored pale pink which adds to its unsettling appearance appropriate for a murderer's stand.

To Rohan as well. They both dislike the company of others and have odd quirks as well as sociopathic tendencies. But in contrast to Rohan's eccentricities and openly expressed disdain for others, Kira comes off more calm, subdued, and Affably Evil most of the time. And while Rohan desires a life of excitement and adventure, all Kira wants is a life of normalcy and peace. Aya Tsuji: The two had little interaction but Kira was aware of her occupation and abilities, which allowed him to escape the protagonists and change his identity. Before being killed by Kira, Aya describes him as truly terrifying and hated him for using her powers for evil. Advertised Extra: Downplayed. He's still the overall Big Bad, but Kira in his original look only appeared in two arcs before he forcefully switched his face with that of Kosaku, to the point where Kosaku is considered the Part 4 Big Bad in All-Star Battle, while regular Kira is relegated to DLC.The Generic Guy: Invoked. He deliberately cultivates as unremarkable a public image as possible to avoid any unwanted attention toward his desired quiet life. Outside his typical salaryman job, his home sports a collection of third place trophies and academic achievements that mark him as perfectly acceptable but not exceptional. The social camouflage allows him free reign to commit murder before once again becoming just another face in the crowd. A very minor case, but when he encounters a man who was stalking the woman who lives in the house Josuke and Hayato took cover in during the final confrontation, he's visibly disgusted. Of course, he uses Killer Queen and a pair of panties to murder the guy, who in his final moments doesn't exactly make you feel bad for him. Freudian Excuse: Subverted. When he seemingly starts laying out something like this to a nurse in a delirious state of mind, it's ultimately revealed he was always a psychopath.
