"Разве вы не хотите преодолеть солнце? Владеть миром всю свою жизнь?! Навсегда победить свои страхи и стать богами!?"

- Карс своим собратьям-людям из колонн,

Карс (カーズ) - главный антагонист второй части серии JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Battle Tendency, и второй главный антагонист в серии.

Карс - лидер людей из колонн и создатель Каменной Маски. Его цель - развиться настолько, чтобы стать невосприимчивым к солнечным лучам, для этого он ищет Красный Камень Эйша, чтобы усилить его Маску, и сражается за него с пользователями хамона.

Как создатель Каменной Маски и Вампиров, Карс - один из самых влиятельных персонажей в серии. Его изобретение оказало большое влияние на многих ключевых персонажей, таких как Дио Брандо, семья Джостар и семья Цеппели.

Внешность
Карс выглядит как высокий и очень атлетичный мужчина. У него элегантные, относительно женские черты лица, которое имеет более светлую окраску, чем у других людей из Колонн. У него длинные, тёмные, кудрявые волосы, которые он держит под тёмной, плотной повязкой (снимая её в знак проявления чести или агрессии). Из его головы прорастают три маленьких заострённых рога, на которых он носит маленькую диадему с драгоценным камнем посередине.

Он носит немного одежды: высокие ботинки, наплечники, стринги и мягкую набедренную повязку. В атаке, он создаёт длинные, блестящие лезвия из предплечий и ног.

Во время путешествия в Италию, Карс надевает мягкую фетровую шляпу и длинное пальто, чтобы казаться менее заметным.

Личность
"У меня нет ни романтического духа, и я не жажду воинской доблести Вамма... потому что средства не важны. Всё, что имеет значение... это окончательная победа!"

- Карс

Карс обладает отличным умом, беспощаден и целеустремлён. Он был признан гением среди Людей из Колонн, будучи создателем Каменной Маски.

Поначалу, он самый неразговорчивый из Людей из Колонн, и только изредка улыбается и напоминает Вамму и Эйсидиси об их цели. Одержимый целью получения Красного Камня, он готов растоптать кого угодно на своём пути, пренебрегая честью. Он нарушает своё слово о том, что битва за Камень будет честной и равной, обманом побеждает Лизу Лизу, и выпускает своих миньонов-вампиров, чтобы добить ослабшего Джозефа. Он даже убивал невинных детей в предвкушении грядущей мести.

С преимуществом своей устойчивости и бессмертия, Карс - методичный и терпеливый человек, способный проникать в человеческое общество (надевая их одежду) или осматривать комнату, чтобы атаковать всех, кто в ней находится, одним движением. В первой битве против Джозефа, Карс демонстрирует большую неустанность в попытках заполучить Красный Камень, и спокойно парирует каждую уловку Джозефа своими атаками. Нетронутый неудачами, например, когда он мирно признал, что Джозеф украл Камень прямо у него из-под носа, он готов упорно бороться за победу в тяжёлой ситуации. Только когда он оказывается в космосе, медленно становится обездвиженным и удаляется от Земли, он теряет своё самообладание и надежду. Тем не менее, его одержимость Супер Эйшей - главная слабость, так как Карс не может рисковать его потерей. Поэтому его враги с легкостью использовали этот камень как защиту или преимущество.

Несмотря на свою твёрдую и серьёзную манеру, Карс обладает убийственной и садистской натурой. Он заявляет, что жизнь без врагов скучна и неоднократно демонстрирует наслаждение битвами. Тем не менее, ему нравится видеть врагов в слабой позиции и панике: он радуется отчаянию Джозефа, когда он стал Совершенной Формой Жизни, и часто облизывает губы в ожидании их смерти. Поведение Карса притворно-вежливое: он предлагает Лизе Лизе выпить яд, чтобы погибнуть, не сражаясь с ним. Эти наклонности особенно проявляются, когда он достигает финальной формы, когда он наслаждается своим статусом сильнейшего существа на Земле.

Карс, по видимому, очень властолюбивый Человек из Колонны, желающий раскрыть весь потенциал своего тела и расслабиться "на вершине". Узнав, что мозги представителей его расы содержат неиспользованный потенциал, Карс захотел контролировать его. Будучи одержимым этой идеей, он создал каменные маски, чтобы раскрыть свои скрытые способности, но они не соответствовали его ожиданиям. Тогда он решил заполучить Красный Камень Эйша, чтобы завершить своё превращение в идеальное существо. Он был в ярости от того, что остальная часть его племени отказалась "покорить солнце", как он хотел, полагая, что они должны полноценно использовать свои врожденные силы и править всей жизнью (тем не менее, он не учёл тот факт, что обострённый голод, вызванный силой масок, приведёт к тому, что его раса уничтожит всю жизнь на Земле).

Карс поддерживает амбивалентные отношения с близкими. С одной стороны, он считает Сантану всего лишь сторожевой собакой, и убивает всю свою расу (включая своих родителей) без колебаний и раскаяния. С другой стороны, он очень заботится об Эйсидиси и Вамму, неоднократно обещая им достичь своих целей, доблестно убить Джозефа Джостара и отомстить за их жертвы в отношении его успеха. Также, Карс демонстрирует долю уважения к природе и животным; он заставляет пьяного водителя, который чуть не задавил щенка, погибнуть в аварии, и усложняет простую посадку, чтобы не упасть на цветок. Тем не менее, проверяя способности своей Совершенной Формы Жизни, он атакует белку, а своими Каменными Масками он создал угрозу экосистеме. В целом, Карс способен к тёплым отношениям с другими, но они ему не дороже амбиций.

Карс свысока смотрит на технику, считая кибер-технологии Рудольфа фон Штрохайма слабыми по сравнению с ним. Кроме этого, он считает своих вампиров бесполезными пешками, не переживая за их жизни, и сам часто убивает их из раздражения.

Союзники
Эйсидиси: Карс, по-видимому, заботился о своем товарище, который, в свою очередь, был единственным человеком его поколения, который разделял его идеалы. Карс доверил ему лично расследовать дело о Красном Камне Эйша, и лично отправился в Швецию, узнав, что с Эйсидиси что-то случилось. Выяснив, что Джозеф убил Эйсидиси, чтобы не дать ему добраться до камня, Карс поклялся убить его после выполнения своей основной задачи - и сразу после того, как он продемонстрировал свои способности Совершенной Формы Жизни, Карс атаковал Джозефа.

Вамм: Карс воспитывал Вамма и Сантану вместе с Эйсидиси. Несмотря на то, что Карс уважал Вамма как гениального бойца, он совершенно не ценил его честь и считал его слишком непорочным для воина. Тем не менее, он в какой-то степени заботился о Вамму, что показано, когда он убил группу своих вампиров за насмешки над Ваммом после кончины последнего и поклялся отомстить за него Джозефу.

Сантана: В сравнении с Ваммом, Карс считал Сантану сторожевой собакой и оставил его снаружи, когда он не мог идти вместе с ними.

Враги
Джозеф Джостар: Как создатель каменных масок, Карс несёт ответственность за превращение Дио Брандо в вампира и смерть Джонатана Джостара. Изначально, Джозеф считал Карса всего лишь одним из Людей из Колонн, которых нужно было победить. Но после того, как Джозеф убил Эйсидиси, Карс выразил глубокую ненависть к людям, особенно к пользователям хамона. После того, как Джозеф понял, насколько Карс бесчестен по сравнению со своими собратьями, он пришёл в ярость. Только став Высшей Формой Жизни, Карс позволил себе атаковать Джозефа, которому пришлось приложить немалые усилия, чтобы победить. Среди битвы, Карс отрезает руку Джозефа, и последний в конце концов отправляет Карса в космос, напоследок поиздевавшись над "богом".

Цезарь Антонио Цеппели: Как создатель каменных масок, Карс также ответственен за смерть отца, деда и прадеда Цезаря.

Биография
Карс родился за 102,000 лет до событий Battle Tendency. Люди его клана жили под землёй, питаясь другими живыми существами и были долгожителями, поэтому не могли размножаться. Несмотря на то, что он жил в мирном, обеспеченном обществе, Карс был недоволен им; он считал, что его раса могла бы с лёгкостью править Землёй, если бы не их непереносимость солнца. Поглощённый амбициями, Карс стал искать для своей расы способ «укротить солнце» и покинуть подземелье.

Со временем, Карс создал свою первую каменную маску и проверил её действие на себе. Тем не менее, её шипы не были способны глубоко проникнуть в его кожу и не позволили Карсу раскрыть весь потенциал его тела: вместо этого, маска улучшила его способность управления своим телом, что окупилось ему возросшим голодом.

В конце концов, его раса стала бояться одержимого Карса, так как усиленный голод, вызванный маской, мог поставить под угрозу их жизни, если бы применение масок распространилось. Вскоре, Карс оказался под атакой остальных людей, которые требовали его казни, несмотря на его протесты. Понимая, что он не сможет завербовать их своими обещаниями, он вырезал всю свою расу, включая своих родителей. Он оставил в живых Эйсидиси, одного из немногих представителей его расы, который разделял его идеалы, после чего взял под опеку двух детей, которые, судя по всему, известны как Сантана и Вамм.

Тогда Карс начал экспериментировать на людях, превращая сотни тысяч людей в вампиров и используя их как пропитание. Тем не менее, чтобы укротить солнце, одной лишь Каменной маски было недостаточно. В конце концов, Карс обнаружил Красный Камень Эйша, который может фокусировать силу света и усиливать Маски. Но те камни, которые у него были, оказались слишком маленькими и несовершенными, чтобы раскрыть полную силу. Тогда он разработал улучшенную версию маски, которая могла сочетаться с безупречным "Супер Эйша", оставляя Сантану в качестве охранника, пока остальные отправлялись в Европу. Также известно, что люди из колонн путешествовали по Китаю. Однажды, Карс услышал о том, что Супер Эйша принадлежит римскому императору, но Людям из колонн противостоял клан пользователей хамона. Упоминалось, что в битве с Карс однажды приказал Вамму убить мальчика из клана, но Вамм не хотел убивать беззащитного ребёнка. Зная, что этот мальчик, когда вырастет, постарается отомстить им, Карс казнил его, прежде чем он стал их врагом. Истребив всё племя, Карс и его товарищи были вынуждены навеки заснуть в колоннах под римским Колизеем.

Пробуждение
В настоящее время, Карс представлен как лидер людей из колонн. Его атакует Вамм за то, что он наступил ему на тень, и Карс извиняется за то, что забыл эту черту. Тем временем, Вамм сталкивается с двумя обладателями хамона, Цезарем Антонио Цеппели и Джозефом Джостаром. Цезарь был легко побежден, а люди из колонн смеются над его бессмысленным стремлением отомстить за своего товарища. Считая, что Джозеф тоже не представляет проблемы для них, Карс покидает пещеру. Позже он видит, как Вамм оставляет Джозефа в живых, чтобы сразиться с ним спустя месяц, но не проявляет интереса и и уходит.

Карс и другие люди из колонн направляются в заброшенный особняк в Швеции, городе Санкт-Мориц, в поисках Супер Эйши. Обнаружив местоположение камня, Эйсидиси готовится связаться с Карсом после того, как получит его, но проигрывает в битве Джозефу. Эйсидиси не приходит в назначенное время, и Карс переживает за него. На пути домой, Карс спасает бродячую собаку от машины, распилив автомобиль пополам вместе с пьяными пассажирами.

Битва за Супер Айша
Kars finds the trail of the Super Aja, who is in the hands of the Nazis. At night, Kars approaches the chalet where the nazis have made their local headquarters. He chooses a room from which he'll enter and senses five soldiers inside. Using his blade, Kars kills all of them through the wall and enters the chalet, but is confronted by Rudol von Stroheim, who has become a cyborg, and Joseph Joestar. He quickly deduces that the latter was responsible for Esidisi's death, and vows to kill Joseph in return once he secures the Red Stone of Aja. Although briefly caught off-guard by Stroheim's new cyborg body - designed to surpass the Pillar Men, based off of Santana's data - he soon regains the advantage and cuts the German down, revealing that Santana was easily the weakest of the four. Kars takes the Super Aja from Stroheim but the German reveals his eye laser, which makes Kars drop the stone. It starts to slide towards a cliff, prompting a race between Kars and Joseph Joestar. With his superhuman constitution, Kars has no hesitation running towards the cliff and predicts that Joseph will try to kick him when he picks up the Aja. Kars easily evades the kick and snatchs the Super Aja with foot, but Joseph also kicks snow at Kars' face, allowing him to take back the Aja. Using one of his leg blades, Kars still hooks Joseph and drags him down the cliff. Joseph grabs a stalactite but Kars still drags him down. He kicks Joseph into the wall to make him rebound and attack him with his blade, but Joseph then uses the Super Aja as a shield. Joseph then uses the falling stalactites to create a makeshift rope, allowing him to hang on while Kars drops to the bottom of the cliff. In there, Kars purposefully avoids a patch of flowers and recognizes his defeat. He leaves, for now.

Kars travels back to his abandoned hotel Saint-Moritz, where Joseph Joestar and Lisa Lisa eventually find him. However, he ambushes them with an army of 100 Vampires. Against Wamuu's wishes, Kars wants to kill the Ripple users with as little hassle as possible. Lisa Lisa then pretends that she's set a time bomb near the Super Aja, which would break it if the heroes didn't return in time. Kars is forced to accept her request that the Pillar Men and Ripple users fight one-on-one to decide whoever gets the Super Aja. All parties agree to meet at the Skeleton Heel Stone to observe a chariot race between Wamuu and Joseph. Kars and Lisa Lisa then comment the race, rooting for their respective students. At one point, Kars snidely offers poison to Lisa Lisa so that she can kill herself instead of fighting him, sure of Wamuu's victory. However, it is Joseph who ultimately wins the battle.

After Wamuu's demise, Kars finally steps in and kills three Vampires who insult Wamuu after his death. He also kills several Vampire who attack Lisa Lisa and Joseph against his orders. Kars and Lisa Lisa thus fight in the ruins of the Piz Bernina Temple, on a stone beam placed above the ground. However, Kars ultimately tricks Lisa Lisa during their fight by using a disguised Vampire as a decoy and steals the stone from her, leaving her unconscious. Kars sics his Vampires on Joseph but the Speedwagon Foundation and the Nazis intervene with anti-Vampire weaponry to battle the Vampires.

This allows Joseph to confront Kars one-on-one on the temple. However, Kars uses Lisa Lisa to his own advantage. He pierces Lisa Lisa's feet and strings a rope through the wounds, forcing Joseph to grab the rope to stop her from falling. An overconfident Kars approaches as Joseph lights his scarf on fire and attacks, but falls from the beam clutching the rope as Kars severs it to finish off Lisa Lisa. However, this is revealed to have been Joseph's intentional setup, as he drew Kars' attention to his upper body while he arranged the loop of rope with his legs below, tricking him into stepping into the loop and forcing him to keep his opponents above the spikes below. Kars faces Joseph in a final standoff with his arm blade, but is soundly beaten as Joseph's Ripple breaks the blade and wounds his arm, knocking him off the railing and into the spikes below. Stroheim and his Nazi troops arrive along with Speedwagon, Smokey and the Speedwagon Foundation Special Forces. Stroheim gloats over Kars before ordering his troops to finish the Pillar Man off.

Высшая Форма Жизни
As the Nazis unleash ultraviolet light upon him, Kars unexpectedly dons a modified Stone Mask with the Super Aja in place; the light activates the mask and enables him to enter his ultimate form. The humans can only stand in horror as Kars displays his new-found power by briefly transforming his hand into a flesh-eating squirrel and then standing in the sunlight while his remaining vampire minions are instantly destroyed. To cap his victory, Kars decides to kill Joseph. Growing wings, Kars pursues Joseph, who uses a plane to fly away. Kars pursues him to the Adriatic and shoots hardened feathers at the plane. The feather then turn into squid tentacles and pirhanas that wreck havoc on the plane. Kars spots Joseph jumping with a parachute and approaches to kill the man, but he sees that it is a dummy. Joseph, who is still piloting the plane, rams him with the intention of putting him into the volcano's lava. Kars tries to escape but Stroheim, who was hiding in the plane as well, shoots his rocket fist at Kars. Kars is driven inside the lava lake.

Inside the volcano, Kars tries to create a carapace but it melts. As he sinks into the lava, Kars finally creates a sufficiently heat resistant armour that allows him to dig his way out. He takes Joseph by surprise and slices his left arm off. A desperate Joseph tries to use the Ripple to attack, but Kars then develops his own Ripple, the energy potent enough to melt human flesh. Deciding to use it to kill Joseph out of poetic justice, Kars sends a powerful Ripple at Joseph. Joseph unconsciously defends himself by using the Super Aja to redirect Kars' Ripple into the ground, causing an eruption that blasts the land the two fighters are on into the air. Kars attempts to escape, but is briefly distracted by Joseph, allowing volcanic debris and the latter's severed forearm enough time to knock Kars out of Earth's orbit.

Kars prepares to return to Earth after being thrown out of orbit by ejecting the built-up air within his body, but the air freezes on its way out. His vital body begins to freeze from the near-absolute zero temperature and he becomes trapped in the void of space for eternity as half-mineral, half-animal. Unable to die even though he wishes for it, Kars eventually stops thinking.

All Star Battle (PS3)
Kars makes his first appearance as a playable character in the PS3 title; he was confirmed alongside Rohan Kishibe. In the English release of the game, Kars' Light Blades are called "Shining Sabres" (keeping the alliteration of the Japanese name). Since Kars never exactly fought extensively in Part 2, most of his normal attacks consist of regular punches and kicks. Along with Wamuu and Esidisi, Kars uses the Mode style as part of his moveset, which allows him to temporarily boost his strength and performance among other things, at the cost of the Heart Heat Gauge.

During a fight, Kars can use several different attacks that were featured in Battle Tendency.


 * Sabres from my feet?!: Kars kicks forward as a blade comes out of his foot. All of Kars' moves can be performed instantly following this skill. (Comboable)
 * Cruel and beautiful violence: Kars dives forward, arm blade extended, to slice through the opponent, and follows up by swinging upward to knock them into the air. (Comboable)
 * Behold, frozen brilliance!: Kars, in a single movement of his arm, unleashes multiple slashes at mid-range. (Comboable through Puttsun Cancel)
 * Shatter against the wall!: Kars performs an airborne reverse kick that, if not blocked, sends the opponent flying into the stage wall. This move can be used in mid-air.
 * Victory is everything!: Kars utilizes light to disappear, with his subsequent reappearance depending on the type of button inputted.
 * If Light, he reappears above the opponent with foot blade extended to down them, knocking them to the ground hard enough for them to bounce. This move is a middle attack that cannot be blocked if the opponent is crouching. (Comboable through Puttsun Cancel)
 * If Medium, he reappears behind the opponent and strikes them upward. This move is a low attack that cannot be blocked if the opponent is not crouching. (Comboable)
 * If Heavy, he simply reappears at a distance, or the move becomes a feint if he is already far enough.
 * Throw - I'll slice you in two!: Kars, using his arm blade, cuts the opponent down the middle before sending them away.

By spending his Heart Heat Gauge, Kars can activate Light Mode in order to not only increase the overall damage of his moves, but exclusive to him, make his Lightblade attacks unblockable. This mode lasts until the HHG empties, but can be extended through dealing or taking damage, as well as ended at any time in conservation.

Expending a stock of the HHG grants Kars access to Shining Sabres Mode, strengthening his abilities even further, increasing the range of Lightblade-based skills, and improving his ability to follow up on attacks. This mode is on a set timer, and will end when the stock is used up.

Kars' HHA, simply titled "Shining Sabres", has him lick his Lightblade before unleashing a large array of slashes done in a single movement of his arm. If they successfully hit, Kars moves past the opponent in a samurai-esque fashion and brings his arm down. After a short delay, the opponent suffers a final, gashing blow. Kars may perform his HHA while Shining Sabres Mode is active, regardless of how much of the Heart Heat Gauge he has left. Doing so however, will drop his HHG to zero.

Kars' GHA, "I am the ultimate life form!", has him use the Stone Mask (in combination with the Red Stone of Aja) to attempt to turn into the Ultimate Life Form. Kars, wearing the mask, will slowly rise to his feet. If the animation fully plays out uninterrupted by the opponent, the mask shatters, and Kars gains a completely new array of moves (it is also one of the longest and most difficult GHA to fully activate, taking about 5 seconds to complete).

Once his GHA is successful, Kars is dubbed as "Kars (Ultimate Life Form)" for the rest of the battle and gains a whole new moveset capable of dealing more overall damage than his previous state.


 * Predator Wings: Kars takes flight, and can attack while in the air, slowing draining the HHG.
 * Aerial Dash/Back Dash: Quickly moves forward or backwards. The forward dash can collide with the opponent and act as an anti-air to knock them down.
 * Aerial Combo Beat: Kars can chain together his normal attacks while in flight.


 * Shining Sabres: Kars charges forward and attacks with his Lightblade in one fell swoop. This move cannot be blocked, and Kars' skills can be performed instantly following it.
 * The power of supreme genes!: Kars launches projectile attacks from his body that can be used while flying and differ based on button input.
 * If Light, he fires off his hardened feathers in a straight line.
 * If Medium, he launches a piranha that quickly arcs downward but deals the most damage. This version is a middle attack that can only be blocked while the opponent is standing.
 * If Heavy, he sics a squirrel on his opponent, and while it does the least damage and is a high attack until it hits the ground, it is capable of tracking and chasing them, becoming a low attack.
 * Feast your eyes on my Ripple!: Kars attacks with Ripple-charged fists, the result depending on attack button inputted. (Comboable through Puttsun Cancel)
 * If Light, he unleashes two punches.
 * If Medium, he slides forward to unleash a downward elbow. This version is a middle attack that can only be blocked while the opponent is standing.
 * If Heavy, he dashes forward to unleash a powerful swing. This version is a low attack that can only be blocked while the opponent is crouching.


 * This cannot be!: Kars turns his arm into a large octopus tentacle and swings it in a wide girth while maniacally laughing, capable of hitting the opponent at most ranges and sending them flying. If used while the opponent is in mid-air, he will swing in upward as an anti-air.
 * Throw - You worthless fool!: Kars grins as he grabs the opponent and smashes them between his elbow and knee, before shoving them away.

Ultimate Life Form Kars is not entirely infallible. If he falls victim to Kosaku-Kira's Bites the Dust GHA, Kars will revert back to his original form. He is also permanently unable to use his HHA, or enter Light Mode and Shining Sabres Mode.

Kars also appears on the stage "The Battlefield" as a background character along with Lisa Lisa. If Wamuu is one of the combatants ingame, Kars will brag about Wamuu's strength. This is assuming that Kars himself is not part of the fight.

Kars also possesses two alternate costumes, the first one being the attire he usually wears and is seen in for the first half of his presence in Battle Tendency (the veil that covers his long hair), and the second one being the overcoat and large hat he wore in Switzerland, in his fight against Stroheim.

Stardust Shooters (Android/iOS)
Kars appears as one of the several Part 2 characters who possesses a Metal Striker. His Finish Move consists of him using his Light Blades and cutting the opponent's defeated Metal Striker.

Eyes of Heaven (PS3/PS4)
Kars returns as a playable character in Eyes of Heaven, confirmed alongside Wamuu and Esidisi.

As a Pillar Man, Kars has the special ability Switch Mode, exclusive to the Mode style. His specific Mode is Light Mode. He is also able to stand and walk on the spike pit in the Air Supplena Island stage without taking damage (though he will still take extra damage if knocked down onto the spikes). Of special note is that he has the fastest movement speed of any character.

Карс (Normal Mode)

 * Style Action - Light Mode: Kars' body begins generating sparkles. All attacks involving his Light Blades become unblockable and receive a damage increase.
 * Victory is everything!: Kars utilizes light to disappear and reappear behind an opponent. The skill by itself will not deliver an attack, but a Powerful Attack can be inputted to do so. If not in range of an opponent or locked on, Kars will simply teleport forward, though he cannot teleport across gaps on through walls. In Light Mode, the skill executes quicker and the additional attack becomes unblockable.
 * Shining Sabres: Kars, in a single movement of his arm, unleashes multiple slashes, with the last strike sending opponents flying. In Light Mode, the skill deals more hits.
 * EX - Victory is everything!: The skill gains all of its benefits from Light Mode regardless of whether or not it's currently active.
 * EX - Shining Sabres: The skill executes quicker and Kars gains brief invincibility.
 * Dual Heat Attack - You don't stand a chance!: After landing a kick to the opponent's abdomen, Kars unleashes a rapid, alternating barrage of slashes from the Light Blades on both his arms, finishing with a single downward slice that successively rends them multiple times and sends them flying with the final hit as Kars turns around.
 * I am the ultimate life form!: Kars dons the Stone Mask (in combination with the Red Stone of Aja) to attempt to turn into the Ultimate Life Form. Kars, wearing the mask, will slowly rise to his feet. If the animation fully plays out uninterrupted by his opponents, the mask shatters, and Kars gains a completely new array of moves.

Высшая Форма Жизни

 * Style Action - Flight Mode/Ground Mode: Kars can switch between being on the ground and sprouting wings to take to the sky. While in Flight Mode, his stamina gauge slowly drains, and upon emptying, Kars is forced to land. Ascending will cause the stamina gauge to drain faster.
 * Dual Heat Attack - How fitting! I shall cast you into the dark abyss of death with your own precious Ripple!: Kars lunges at the opponent and deals two powerful slashes that leave them lying on the ground. Ecstatically reveling in the fact he can now use Ripple, Kars charges and unleashes an all-powerful Ripple blast straight into the downed opponent. This is a reference to the method he tried to finish Joseph off with during the final chapters of Part 2.

While in Ground Mode:


 * Victory is everything!: The maximum range and damage of the attack is increased, but the EX version is no longer available.
 * Shining Sabres: The skill gains a damage increase.
 * I have absorbed the abilities of every living thing. I contain all of existence.: Kars turns his hand into a squirrel that he then sics on opponents, automatically attacking any threat to him within range. Opponents caught crumple and are open to further attacks.
 * Arm yourself!: Kars creates a crustaceous shell layer over most of his body as he assumes a defensive posture to create a special guard. Opponents that attempts to attack him from the front with melee attacks are knocked off-balance, creating an attack opening. While active, Kars' stamina gauge slowly drains, and the skill will end if it empties or the activating button is released.
 * EX - Shining Sabres: The skill gains an extra damage increase.

While in Flight Mode:


 * You're like a butterfly in a spider's web!: Kars fires two hardened feathers downward. Once they hit the ground, the feathers transform into octopus legs that automatically attack any opponents in range. The attacks are unblockable and up to four octopus legs can be out at any given time.
 * Do you believe for a moment that you can escape from me, the mighty Kars?: Kars fires three hardened feathers downward. If they hit the ground, they will start shaking, and transform into piranhas to attack any opponent that gets too close. If they hit an opponent, they will transform instantly. The piranhas themselves latch onto opponents and deal damage in intervals whilst slowing them down.
 * EX - Do you believe for a moment that you can escape from me, the mighty Kars?: Kars fires five feathers.

JoJolities

 * Victory is everything!!: Kars must connect the additional attack that follows "Victory is everything!" 3 times. A glitch exists where attacks dealt by the tentacles created by "Do you believe for a moment that you can escape from me, the mighty Kars?" also fulfill this JoJolity. (200 Points)
 * What would life be without enemies?: Kars must Retire an opponent. (200 Points)
 * Finally... finally... I've conquered the sun!: Kars must successfully perform "I am the ultimate life form!". (300 Points)
 * Heh heh heh... I'm going to make you die slowly!: Kars must survive the first 20 counts of the battle timer without taking damage. (500 Points)
 * Kars used the Red Stone to become the Ultimate Life Form?!: Kars must succeed with a Dual Combo Finish while in Flight Mode. (800 Points)

Unlike the previous game, his main color scheme is now based on his anime appearance.
