Obladi Oblada

"Like I said, "Obladi Oblada". That is the name of the Rock Insect. A second Rock Insect. It's part of my evacuation drill. (だからそれは「オブラディ・オブラダ」. わたしは岩昆虫の名前を言ったんだよ…２匹目の昆虫の名前というワケだ. わたしの避難訓練に含まれている.)"

- Wonder of U,

Obladi Oblada (オブラディ・オブラダ) is a minor antagonist featured in the eighth part of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, JoJolion.

Obladi Oblada belongs to a certain species of Rock Organisms. During its evacuation, Wonder of U releases this leech-like organism on Josuke.

Appearance
"Technically speaking, it is not an insect. It lacks jointed legs or a body separated into three segments. (正確には昆虫ではない. 節足がないんだ、体も３つの部位に分かれていない.)"

- Wonder of U

Obladi Oblada's main body takes on the appearance of a small, flat, round disc, resembling a cookie, with six stubs protruding from its edges. It visually has a four-toed paw print on its back. When duplicated, the bodies seem to link together via their stubs. Akefu calls Obladi Oblada an insect, but also notes that its species aren't technically insects, as they lack a three-segmented body or jointed legs.

Personality
Not much is known about Obladi Oblada's personality so far, but it can be inferred that, like other Rock Animals, it is subservient to Tooru, and that it is carnivorous like Dododo De Dadada. Obladi Oblada's species prefer to live on sloped areas and target any sort of animal from above or below.

Abilities
A Rock Insect, Obladi Oblada's main sustenance seems to be human flesh. The organism is shown to be relatively strong enough to deflect Josuke's Spin bubbles.

Latching
Obladi Oblada can latch itself onto its victims, like a tick, via an extremely sticky substance that is secreted from its underside. This is effective in order for the Rock Organism to burrow into the victim's skin and absorb their essence.

Body Replication
Obladi Oblada is capable of spawning copies of itself at a rapid pace from its victim's blood, to the point of overwhelming its victim within seconds. Attempting to attack or pull off one of the pads spawns more of its bodies, proving any attack against it seemingly futile. When the body multiplies, its copies form out of one of its stubs.

Background
Obladi Oblada originally lived on a dry, sloped cliff. It became allies with Tooru and the Locacaca Organization at some point.

JoJolion
Wonder of U keeps the Rock Insect attached to its cane. While evacuating as Josuke shoots a bubble at it with his finger, Wonder of U releases Obladi Oblada to stop him.

Obladi Oblada deflects the incoming bubble and latches itself onto Josuke's hand, eating at his flesh. Josuke tries to pry the insect off, but to no avail; the organism clings on and spawns duplicates of itself all over Josuke's arm. He tries shooting at the Rock Insect, but Obladi Oblada again duplicates itself, swarming him until it completely covers his body. He then tries to fire one last shot at Wonder of U, but Obladi Oblada spawns some duplicates over his finger, deflecting the bubble. Losing energy as Obladi Oblada continues devouring him, Josuke eventually collapses.

However, Josuke manages to hit Tooru with an invisible bubble, which helps decrease the severity of what Obladi Oblada is inflicting on Josuke. He manages to stand up and after quickly consulting a map, finds the shower room of the hospital and dives into a pool, which causes the Rock Insects to struggle breathing. They shriek and move to the surface as they detach from his body.
