Personality

Chaka is a meek farmer who works with his father. Although often insulted and prohibited from doing much, he remains loyal and respectful. He is rather curious and pushes his father to let him see Anubis. He is also somewhat fearful, trying to rid himself of the blame and standing in shock when Anubis pierces his father's chest.[3]

After unsheathing Anubis and succumbing to its control, he becomes a cold-blooded killer. His respect for his father and human life vanishes, and he eagerly accepts his mission to kill the Joestar Group.[3] Polnareff describes him as honorable for directly challenging him to battle and swiftly introducing himself,[4] but how much of Chaka's true self influenced this decision is unknown.

Abilities

Stand

Main article: Anubis

Chaka temporarily wields the Stand Anubis when he picks up the sword. It is a Sentient Stand that possesses Chaka's mind and makes him a deadly fighter despite his lack of experience. Polnareff notes that his stance and grip are like an amateur's.[4]

History

Stardust Crusaders (1989)

Hearing something from the sword

Chaka is a young farmer traveling with his father and his father's two companions near The Nile. His father berates him for falling behind, and mockingly asks whether Chaka is actually his son. Meanwhile, Chaka notices a sword on the ground. Chaka's father attempts to unsheathe it, but the sword refuses to budge, even with the man and his two friends attempting to pull the sword out together. Chaka asks twice whether he can try to do it too. Much to everyone's surprise, Chaka successfully unsheathes the sword. As he starts hearing something from the sword, his father grabs him from behind and demands that Chaka gives the sword to him. Suddenly, Chaka stabs the sword in his father's chest.

As Chaka claims that it was an accident, his father's friend attempts to pull the sword out but his head gets sliced open instead. The sword begins speaking to Chaka, revealing itself as the Stand Anubis. Anubis takes control of Chaka, claiming to make him a master swordsman. Chaka's personality immediately changes after being possessed. He declares that his father and the other guy deserved to die, and now he'll cut down the remaining guy as well. As the man tries running away, Chaka slashes through his father's cow which slices the man's body in half. Remarkably, the cow is unharmed due to Anubis's ability of selective intangibility. Anubis then gives Chaka orders to kill Joseph Joestar, Jotaro Kujo, and Jean Pierre Polnareff.[3]

Confronting Polnareff

Chaka confronts Polnareff at Kom Ombo Temple, introducing himself and his Stand for a one-on-one battle. Polnareff praises him for getting right to the point and the two begin their duel. After Chaka unsheathes Anubis, Polnareff is confused due to Chaka's grip and stance being that of an amateur's. However, Chaka dashes behind a pillar and then slashes through it using Anubis's selective intangibility to cut Polnareff. Chaka continues hiding behind various pillars, laughing while Polnareff is afraid as to where he may strike from. Suddenly, Chaka slashes a pillar behind Polnareff, revealing that he could do more than just pass through objects.

On top of the pillar he just cut, Chaka attempts to attack Polnareff by having the sword phase through the pillar as it falls. However, Polnareff shoots Silver Chariot's sword at a nearby pillar, having it rebound and impale Chaka's neck. Chaka lies on the ground immobilized after his defeat, though Polnareff mentions that he hasn't killed him.[4]

Video Games

JoJo RPG (SFC)

Unlike in the manga, where Chaka is battled first with Khan following soon after, in this game, Chaka is battled after fighting Khan. Here, Chaka is a shopkeeper who draws Anubis by accident and attempts to kill the player. After defeating him, he comes to his senses and functions as a regular shopkeeper from there on.

Chaka or Chaca in the English localization, appears in the Capcom game. He was part of the original roster in JoJo's Venture, and is a Weapon Stand user.

Movelist & Gameplay

Chaka's playstyle differs slightly from other characters in the game because his Stand functions as a weapon instead of a secondary fighter. He has a notable lack of projectile attacks but possesses very fast and deadly blade combos up close.

Trivia

  • Depending on whether the game's censorship is on or not, the color of Chaka's blade will change in Heritage for the Future. If the censorship is enabled, the blade is colored brown. Strangely, Khan and Anubis Dual-Wielding Polnareff's swords remain unchanged.
