Akira Otoishi (音石 明, Otoishi Akira) was confirmed to return for All-Star Battle R during the game's initial announcement trailer.[1]
His moveset is fundamentally the same as his from All-Star Battle, with a few tweaks being made to both balance the character and fit him into the overall gameplay changes that All-Star Battle R brought.
In the English localization of the game, the name of Otoishi's Stand, Red Hot Chili Pepper, is localized as "Chili Pepper", the same name used in the original All-Star Battle.
Having voiced Otoishi in both All-Star Battle and the Diamond is Unbreakable anime, Showtaro Morikubo reprises his role in this game as well. As with majority of the game's roster, voice lines for Otoishi were either added or re-recorded.
Otoishi has 950 health and uses the Stand (スタンド, Sutando) Battle Style, which allows him to freely summon and withdraw his Stand Red Hot Chili Pepper, dynamically changing his moveset in the process.
Otoishi briefly summons Red Hot Chili Pepper to move forward and deliver a two hitting uppercut. If Otoishi has MAX Electricity, this attack will do more damage and knock the opponent into the air with the second hit.
Otoishi briefly summons Red Hot Chili Pepper, whose upper half appears from the ground and jabs straight out. If Otoishi has MAX Electricity, this attack will do more damage.
Oroishi briefly summons Red Hot Chili Pepper, whose upper half appears out of the ground and performs a sweeping chop. If it hits, the opponent will be knocked to the ground in a hard knockdown. If Otoishi has MAX Electricity, this attack will do more damage.
Otoishi performs an aerial kick straight out. If it hits the opponent, they'll be launched away.

Stand ON/OFF (スタンドＯＮ／ＯＦＦ)
ON GROUND
Switches between User Mode and Stand Mode. Doing so summons or dismisses Red Hot Chili Pepper, changing the skills Otoishi has access to.
Charge (充電)
+
ON GROUNDCHARGEABLE
Otoishi pulls out a small amp, allowing Red Hot Chili Pepper to siphon off it and replenish the Electricity Gauge. This action can be canceled into from normals and puts Otoishi in a crouch, making him harder to hit with projectiles and other high-hitting attacks.
Right Hand Rockout (ライトハンド奏法)
+
ON GROUND
A special taunt. Otoishi plays a guitar solo as the whole stage darkens and multi-colored spotlights appear above him out of nowhere. This taunt slowly refills his Heart Heat Gauge, up to a whole stock if it completes without the opponent interrupting, and is the only skill that Otoishi can perform with an empty Electricity Gauge as it does not involve Red Hot Chili Pepper. If this taunt is playing when the round ends, the round will not fully complete until it finishes and grants the stock of HHG.
Electricity Gauge (電力ゲージ)
Passive
Exclusive to Otoishi is a two-meter gauge that directly affects his abilities depending on how much of it is filled, with its power constantly draining and being consumed whenever he uses abilities or has Red Hot Chili Pepper active. This gauge can be manually filled by either using "Charge", Otoishi's HHA, or his GHA.
If it completely depletes while Otoishi is in Stand Mode, he will be forced into a special animation as Chili Pepper is forcibly dismissed, leaving him vulnerable. While empty, Otoishi is unable to use any skills, moves, even his Throw, or summon Red Hot Chili Pepper, leaving him with only his User Mode normal attacks. After the gauge has been fully drained, it will passively refill to about a quarter of a stock while in User Mode. It will then start passively draining again once reaching this point.
If it is filled past the first meter, Otoishi enters "MAX Electricity", increasing the damage and speed of his attacks involving Chili Pepper as well as altering their properties, with the Stand visually becoming brighter as more sparks and electric crackles come off of it.
If in Stand Mode, Chili Pepper can remain in MAX Electricity even after the gauge drops below the second level, provided Otoishi doesn't dismiss the Stand.
Rumble Mode (ゴゴゴモード)
Activates below 30% health
This mode is automatically activated once Otoishi falls below 30% health. It increases his attack power, as well as the rate at which the Heart Heat Gauge rises, while also decreasing the rate at which the Guard Gauge drops.

ON GROUND
Otoishi summons a small RC airplane carrying Red Hot Chili Pepper in it that travels forward as a high-flying projectile. The distance the plane travels, the speed it flies, and the damage dealt increases in order, but the greater the increase, the more vulnerable Otoishi becomes. This projectile cannot be reflected and doubles as an anti-air. (Flash Cancel comboable)
This skill possess its own follow-up. If used, Chili Pepper exits the plane to deliver a drop attack, knocking the opponent down.
When at MAX Electricity, this attack deals more damage and the airplane itself will shock the opponent upon connecting, leaving them bound and then crumpling. The follow-up will also launch the opponent instead of knocking them down. (Comboable)
This skill's recovery is incredibly long, making it extremely punishable when whiffed. When combined with the fact that it cannot hit crouching opponents unless they are Mounted, it is inadvisable to use this attack in neutral.
Otoishi summons Red Hot Chili Pepper to come out of three distinct spots of electricity on the floor determined by the opponent's position; The opponent is always between the second and third points, regardless of range. The attack will knock them down, but if Otoishi has MAX Electricity, it will instead cause the opponent to crumple to the ground. Also, this skill will not activate counters. The direction and where Chili Pepper attacks from is determined by the attack button inputted. (Flash Cancel Comboable; Comboable when at MAX Electricity)
Light (): Chili Pepper jumps from the first spot to the third.
Medium (): Chili Pepper jumps from the second spot to the third.
Heavy (): Chili Pepper jumps from the third spot to the first, moving towards Otoishi.

More power than a jet engine (ジェットエンジンのようなパワー)
+ //
ON GROUND
Red Hot Chili Pepper rushes a short distance forward in a flurry of flashy punches. The distance forward and damage dealt by this skill increases in order, but the greater the increase, the more Electricity it will cost and the more vulnerable Otoishi will become. This skill has two possible follow-ups, and is a Stand Rush skill that Otoishi can disconnect from to freely act while it is executing. (Flash Cancel comboable)
With MAX Electricity, this attack does more damage, the number of hits is increased, and Otoishi is left less vulnerable.
Red Hot Chili Pepper delivers a final blow that sends the opponent flying backwards. A Stand Rush skill that Otoishi can disconnect from to freely act while it is executing. (Flash Cancel comboable)
With MAX Electricity, this attack deals more damage and executes faster.

ON GROUND
Red Hot Chili Pepper delivers a final blow downward that causes the opponent to crumple to the ground. A Stand Rush skill that Otoishi can disconnect from to freely act while it is executing. (Comboable)
With MAX Electricity, this attack deals more damage and executes faster.
While this follow-up skill does not combo directly out of "More power than a jet engine", it can be made to combo by utilizing its ability to be Stand Rushed and using a User Mode normal to keep the opponent in hitstun.
A command Throw. Red Hot Chili Pepper reaches forward a short distance, and if it connects, it converts the opponent into electricity and drags them into the ground. Chili Pepper then resurfaces and blasts them high into the air. The damage dealt increases in order, but the greater the increase, the more Electricity the skill will cost. (Flash Cancel comboable)
With MAX Electricity, this executes faster.
Otoishi's HHA can combo off of this skill, but it is a bit character dependent, so it will not work on the entire cast.
Attack type: Throw Damage: 145 / 155 / 165
Kiss this! (ここねらってよ！ここ)
+ //
ON GROUND
A counter. Red Hot Chili Pepper teasingly points to the side of its face, inviting the opponent to attack it. If hit with a non-HHA/GHA melee attack, Chili Pepper blasts them with electricity and sends them flying. The damage dealt increases in order, but the greater the increase, the more Electricity it costs and the more vulnerable Otoishi becomes. (Flash Cancel comboable)
With MAX Electricity, Chili Pepper will perform an uppercut after its initial attack, which will launch the opponent, who has been bound by the first hit, into the air. This attack also deals more damage and gains the ability to be jump canceled. However, it can no longer be Flash Canceled.
Red Hot Chili Pepper lifts the opponent up with one hand and shocks them while Otoishi plays his guitar, generating an electrical explosion that sends the opponent flying in the desired direction. If a back-throw is executed, Otoishi will face his back towards the opponent while playing his guitar rather than facing them fully. With MAX Electricity, this Throw deals more damage.
I'll beat you with my pinky! (この小指一本でおまえをフッ飛ばすと予告しよう！)

The opponent is dragged around in a circle around Otoishi, taking damage, before Chili Pepper resurfaces in an electric burst and throws them away to the timing of Otoishi finishing his solo.
This HHA can restore the Electricity Gauge to the first level if it is not already at it or above, and deals more damage when at MAX Electricity.
Attack type: High Damage: 168 (normal) / 206 (MAX Electricity)

Otoishi calls forth Red Hot Chili Pepper to fly forward and deliver a punch. If it connects, Otoishi begins a passionate extended guitar solo whilst Chili Pepper delivers a ruthless combo.

After a follow-up kick that sends the opponent forward, Chili Pepper then flashes in front of them and punches them again, before instantly reappearing above to knock them to the ground. The attack finishes with Red Hot Chili Pepper delivering a powerful haymaker to the opponent's face as Otoishi finishes his solo with a sweaty but grinning face as an audience can be heard cheering.
This GHA can restore the Electricity Gauge to the first level if it is not already at it or above, and deals more damage when at MAX Electricity.

Assist System (アシストシステム)
Assault Assist (アサルトアシスト)
ON GROUND
A one-stock assist. Otoishi lands in and starts playing a guitar solo as the whole stage darkens and multi-colored spotlights appear above him out of nowhere. While he is playing, the player's Heart Heat Gauge will slowly fill, up to a whole stock if the opponent does not interrupt Otoishi. Once he finishes, he will pose before jumping back off-screen. If he is interrupted, he will instead immediately jump back off-screen after picking himself up.
Reversal Assist (リバーサルアシスト)
ON GROUND
A two-stock assist. Otoishi jumps into the opponent while Red Hot Chili Pepper punches down at them, knocking them away. He then dismisses his Stand, poses, and jumps back off-screen.
Neither Otoishi nor Red Hot Chili Pepper move as far forward as they did in All-Star Battle during this attack, resulting in this attack having reduced range. However, when Otoishi has MAX Electricity, the second hit of the uppercut will now launch opponents into the air.
Jumping Heavy Attack
IN AIR OK
The angle opponents are launched has been altered, leading to the opponent being launched slightly higher into the air, and therefore not as far. While it isn't too visually noticeable, the change now allows Otoishi to combo off of a successful hit.

Red Hot Chili Pepper does not travel nearly as far forward as it did in All-Star Battle for all variants. As a result, the opponent is not pushed as far away from Otoishi now. Furthermore, the damage now increases as the strength of the attack button inputted does instead of staying the same.

ON GROUND
Instead of having a damage increase when Otoishi has MAX Electricity, Red Hot Chili Pepper instead gains a speed increase. This results in the grab executing slower than it did in All-Star Battle when Otoishi doesn't have MAX Electricity.

Kiss this!

ON GROUND
When successfully activated, Red Hot Chili Pepper launches the opponent slightly into the air now rather than knocking them straight to the ground. If Otoishi has MAX Electricity, the attack will instead bind the opponent, and Chili Pepper will follow-up its initial attack with an uppercut that launches the opponent into the air instead of keeping the same hit effect. The skill also loses the ability to be Flash Canceled, instead gaining the ability to be jump canceled.
