{{Nihongo|'''Ringo Roadagain'''|リンゴォ・ロードアゲイン|Ringō Rōdoagein}} is a [[:Category:Secondary AntagonistAntagonists|secondary antagonist]] featured in  the seventh part of the ''[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure]]'' series, ''[[Steel Ball Run]]'', introduced in the "[[The World of Man (storyStory arcArc)|The World of Man]]" story arc.

Ringo Roadagain is a gunslinger at the service of [[Funny Valentine]] who traps [[Gyro Zeppeli|Gyro]], [[Johnny Joestar|Johnny]] and [[Hot Pants]] at the beginning of the [[Steel Ball Run (raceRace)|4th StageSTAGE]], near Kansas City, to seize the [[Saint's Corpse]]'s parts. He is a [[Stand]] user and uses his time-rewinding [[Mandom]] duringto gunensure fightsfairness toin getduels theand upperprevent handdraws.

From birth, Ringo was sickly. As a young boy, he had fragile skin and was often ill. Ringo's father was drafted and sent to war, later escaped, was imprisoned, and then died because of a disease. Ringo's family, branded as traitors, were forced to travel across the country. Ringo, at the age of ten, woke up one night to a large man in military uniform by his bed and his family, his mother and two sisters, killed underneath the table that had a bloody knife sticking on top of it. The large man looming over Ringo then tried to rape him but was greeted with a gun, which Ringo slyly took from the large man, pointing towards him. Ringo quickly shot the man as he charged at him. It was after this event that the formerly sick young boy experienced a newfound power. He overcame a wall that he called "the world of man," that he believed was the only path he could pursue.

Three years before the events of ''[[Steel Ball Run]]'', Ringo acquired his [[Stand]], [[Mandom]]. He then entered [[Funny Valentine]]'s service.

Ringo Roadagain is dispatched during the fourth stage and setsets up camp in a cabin located in a forest where the racers will pass through. He purposefully activates [[Mandom]]'s power regularly while the racers cross the forest, making them lose their way. A contestant named [[Gaucho]] confronts him but Ringo refuses to let him go or help him, saying that he'll only let him free after he kills him. Gaucho leaves for the moment.

Johnny, Gyro, and Hot Pants return and confront Ringo as they too cannot get out of the forest. Ringo asks Johnny to be the first duelist. Hot Pants then attacks from behind with [[Cream Starter]] and melts Ringo's gun hand, but Ringo uses his power [[Mandom]] to rewind time to 6 seconds ago. He avoids the ambush. Revealing his Stand, Ringo explains its power and says again that they must kill him to escape. Ringo shoots Hot Pants's hand. Johnny attacks and wounds Ringo lightly, but is shot in the head while Hot Pants is shot in the chest and taken out. Gyro is also shot in the guts when he retaliates, but Ringo spares him out of disdain since he attacked merely as a reaction to his friend's death. Ringo drags Johnny inside as Gyro yells, defeated. In the cabin, Ringo examines Johnny's Corpse Part and sends {{MI|Ringo's Message|the coordinates of the next Corpse Part}} to the President with a messenger pigeon.
