Rohan Kishibe/Games

Trivia

 * There are several parallels between Rohan and Hirohiko Araki – one of the most interesting is that Hirohiko Araki himself claimed that his favorite character is Josuke, while Rohan holds an unparalleled hatred towards him.


 * As if to signalize his occupation as a mangaka, he has a pen nib theme as a part of his fashionable identity. He wears pen nib earrings, buttons shaped like pen nibs and other pen nib shapes incorporated into his extensive wardrobe.


 * In the Japanese dialog he uses the polite type of speech usually used by young boys.
 * The magazine in which his manga "Pink Dark Boy" (Pinkdark no Shonen) is serialized in is Weekly Shounen JUMP, the same magazine in which the JJBA series ran in (before moving to Ultra JUMP).
 * It is worth noting that Rohan has by far appeared in the most spin-offs and side stories.
 * He appears in the video game JUMP Ultimate Stars, available as one of the characters who the player can choose to guide them through the menus. He, Dio Brando, and Gyro Zeppeli are the only non-Jojo characters to represent the series in the game.
 * One of his quotes: "But I refuse," (「だが断る. 」), stated when Rohan was threatened by Highway Star, has became an Internet meme on Nico Nico Douga. Parodies of this phrase are usually accompanied by different dialogue and different characters drawn to mimic Araki's signature art style.


 * Like all authors, he gets fan mail. A few showcased are:
