Original Author Rohan Kishibe: Difference between revisions - JoJo's Bizarre Encyclopedia

Kitamoto suddenly notices something strange in a nearby storage room—a man wearing Orobog's costume. In his panic, Kitamoto accidentally lets slip that the Orobog episode, which was supposed to be filmed that day, had been cut from the production. The director makes a run for the exit, but trips on the fallen body of Kunieda's manager and suffers the same fate as Kunieda. The man in the Orobog costume reveals himself to be the assistant director from earlier, {{Nihongo|'''Yumeo Obara'''|尾原夢生|Obara Yumeo}}. Having made the costume himself, Yumeo had desperately sought to play the role of Orobog, but was turned down at every opportunity. Now filled with resentment, Yumeo curses the cast and crew that he feels had ~~neglected~~abandoned him, and the original author who allowed them to do so.

Yumeo approaches Rohan, but the manga artist uses [[Heaven's Door]] to turn him into a book. Rohan begins reading into Yumeo's memories, but is horrified to see Orobog's memories written alongside them. Orobog had been based on the real legend of a man who had been denied access to water due to superstitions that his family were sorcerers experienced in water magic. On the brink of death, the man defied the law and was sentenced to death via the electric chair. As he died, the man cursed the land, causing all the water in the region to dry up. Rohan comes to the horrifying realization that, in identifying so strongly with the character, Yumeo had become Orobog incarnate, complete with the original character's powers of water absorption.
