Everything's coming up Kira![2] (この吉良吉影に「運」は味方してくれているッ！)
”
—Chapter 426: Another One Bites the Dust, Part 9
Kosaku Kawajiri (川尻 浩作, Kawajiri Kōsaku) was confirmed to return for All-Star Battle R during the game's initial announcement trailer.[1]
His moveset is fundamentally the same as his from All-Star Battle, with a few tweaks being made to both balance the character and fit him into the overall gameplay changes that All-Star Battle R brought.
In the English localization of the game, the name of Kosaku's Stand, Killer Queen, is localized as "Deadly Queen", the same name used in the original All-Star Battle. Unlike in the original game, however, Stray Cat keeps its original name, rather than being localized to "Feral Cat".
Toshiyuki Morikawa reprises his role from the Diamond is Unbreakable anime, replacing Rikiya Koyama. As with the majority of the game's roster, voice lines for Kosaku were either added or re-recorded.
Gameplay
Kosaku has 900 health and uses the Stand (スタンド, Sutando) Battle Style, which allows him to freely summon and withdraw his Stand Killer Queen, dynamically changing his moveset in the process. Many of Killer Queen's attacks also utilize Stray Cat and its air projectiles.
This section requires expansion.

Rumble Mode (ゴゴゴモード)
Activates below 30% health
This mode is automatically activated once Kosaku falls below 30% health. It increases his attack power, as well as the rate at which the Heart Heat Gauge rises, while also decreasing the rate at which the Guard Gauge drops.
Skills [Stand Off] (コマンド技)
Impact Ignition Bomb [☆] (着弾点火弾)
+ // ON GROUND Kosaku summons Killer Queen and Stray Cat to fire an air bomb that is manually detonated. Kosaku himself remains stationary until the bomb is detonated or the skill is interrupted. The trajectory of the air bomb created is determined by the attack button inputted.
- Light (): The air bomb travels straight forward.
- Medium (): The air bomb travels at a 45 degree angle upward.
- Heavy (): The air bomb travels at a steeper upward angle, almost directly up.
These bombs deals 50% of the Guard Gauge, cannot be reflected, are unaffected by opposing projectiles and traps, and produce large explosions that cannot be jumped over. However, Kosaku is completely vulnerable while he is controlling the air bomb, and the bomb disappears as soon as he is hit.
Attack type: High
Damage: 160
Ignition (点火)
(While a ☆ skill is in effect) 
+ // ON GROUND WHEN DOWNED
+ // ON GROUND WHEN DOWNED Kosaku immediately detonates any bombs created by skills marked with a star (☆) that may be out at the moment. These skill's bombs can be used to hit a downed opponent. If too close to the blast, Kosaku himself will take damage as well.
Trajectory Change (軌道変更)
2 ATK Buttons during "Impact Ignition Bomb" ON GROUND
With his mental math skills, Kosaku can manually correct the trajectory of an in-flight "Impact Ignition Bomb" should the opponent have moved out of its path, instantly changing its direction in order to once more send it towards them. This can be done a maximum of three times, but every time the trajectory is changed, the air bomb will shrink, though its speed will increase slightly.
I'll have to fight it out! (闘わざるをえないッ！)
+ // ON GROUND Kosaku briefly summons Killer Queen to rush forward in a barrage of punches, pushing and launching the opponent away. The damage and the distance Killer Queen moves forward increases in order, but the greater the increase, the longer the recovery. Although this move is a punch rush-style of attack, Kosaku cannot actually initiate Rush Mode, and a similar move by other opponents will easily overpower Killer Queen. (Flash Cancel comboable)

Damage: 50 / 55 / 60
This stone is a bomb! [☆]
+ // ON GROUND WHEN DOWNED TRAP Kosaku briefly summons Killer Queen to place a small stone primed with the first bomb a distance in front of him on the ground. The explosion from the stone launches the opponent into the air even if they're downed when the explosion triggers. The distance in front of Kosaku that Killer Queen places the bomb increases in order, but the greater the increase, the longer the recovery. (Comboable)
The stone can either be manually detonated or will automatically detonate if the opponent touches the stone. This includes when they're downed. If too close to the stone when detonated, Kosaku will be damaged. The bomb will disappear after a time if it is not detonated or if another skill that creates a bomb is used.

Stand ON/OFF (スタンドＯＮ／ＯＦＦ)
ON GROUND Switches between User Mode and Stand Mode. Doing so summons or dismisses Killer Queen, altering the skills Kosaku has access to.
I'll crush you! (ぶっつぶしてやるッ！)
+ ON GROUND Kosaku briefly summons Killer Queen to stomp on the opponent. This attack can hit downed opponents, but if it hits a standing opponent, it will launch them. This skill is a command normal that can combo into Kosaku's other skills. (Comboable)
Though this move is identical to the original Kira's "It's your fate to be defeated here..." skill, its name implies it to be the stomp Killer Queen attempted to use on Stray Cat during their first encounter.
Attack type: Middle
Damage: 35
Only one bomb at a time (爆弾は一発ずつしか作動できない)
Passive

Contact Bomb [☆] (接触弾)
+ // ON GROUND WHEN DOWNED Killer Queen fires an air bomb that will automatically explode on-contact with the opponent. However, the bomb can still be manually detonated if "Ignition" is used. Kosaku can move after a short recovery period once the bomb is launched. The speed of the bomb created increases in order, but the greater the increase, the longer the recovery. This bomb deals 50% of the Guard Gauge. (Comboable).
This skill is a Stand Rush skill that Kosaku can disconnect from to freely act while it is executing, including moving away from the bomb. However, Killer Queen remains at risk of being caught in the explosion if Kosaku uses Stand Rush in an attempt to escape a close-ranged blast. If Kosaku is hit by the blast, he will recover faster than his opponent.

The First Bomb [☆] (第一の爆弾)
+ // ON GROUND Killer Queen channels its power into its index finger before chopping downward. If the opponent is touched, even if they are block the attack, they themselves are turned into a bomb. Kosaku can then detonate the opponent at any time, including when they're on the ground, dealing heavy damage. The distance forward Killer Queen moves increases in order, but the greater the increase, the longer the startup. A Stand Rush skill that Kosaku can disconnect from to freely act while it is executing. If Kosaku is knocked down, the bomb will be canceled.

Air Bomb Cushion (空気弾のクッション)
(While guarding) + 2 ATK Buttons for ½ HH ON GROUND
+ 2 ATK Buttons for ½ HH ON GROUND When guarding against attacks, Stray Cat creates an air cushion between Kosaku and the opponent, pushing them away from him. If the opponent is in the air when this skill is activated, instead of being pushed away, the opponent will instead be knocked to the ground. This skill costs half a bar of the Heart Heat Gauge. The recovery can be Flash Canceled.
Attack type: High
Throw (投げ技)
Can I ask your name? (君の名を聞かせてもらえないか？)
2 ATK buttons near opponent or 
( to back-throw) ON GROUND
( to back-throw) ON GROUND Kosaku grabs the opponent and explodes them in his hand as he lightly throws them. The animation changes slightly based on which direction the opponent is thrown. If they are thrown forward, Kosaku pushes them away from him as they explode. If they are back-thrown, Kosaku tosses them to the ground behind him as they explode, stepping away as he does so.
Attack type: Throw
Damage: 120
Heart Heat Attack / Great Heat Attack (ＨＨＡ / ＧＨＡ)
Stray Cat's protecting me now! (『猫草 』ッ！ 防御してくれている！)
+ 2 ATK Buttons
ON GROUND Killer Queen exposes Stray Cat and moves in front of Kosaku, resulting in an air bubble cushion being created. If Killer Queen is struck with a non-Throw/HHA/GHA melee attack, the opponent will be repelled and knocked to the ground. Kosaku will take the opportunity to send out the completely invisible air bubble towards them, now primed as an air bomb. Using his math knowledge, Kosaku correctly predicts where the air bomb is and detonates it at the right moment, blowing his opponent up. He is then left at the center of the stage, regardless of where the counter was activated.
While the two hits of this counter do not combo together traditionally, they are inescapable once the counter is activated.

Stray Cat! Give me some defense! Looks like a chance has presented itself... (『猫草 』ッ！ 防御してくれている！ チャンスは訪れた……)

Bites the Dust (バイツァ・ダスト)
+ 3 ATK Buttons or 
ON GROUND Kosaku brings out Hayato with Killer Queen's Third Bomb attached to him, who then then runs away in fear with Killer Queen following closely. If Hayato bumps into the opponent, they will be stunned by his sudden interference as he begins to panic, only for them to see Killer Queen in their left eye. The Stand promptly detonates its third bomb, initiating a temporal loop as Kosaku gleefully celebrates the bomb's success. Bites the Dust is easily dodged/sidestepped/jumped over as Hayato will only slowly run a short distance in front of Kosaku before suddenly sprinting the other way and off the battlefield.
This GHA inflicts the lowest damage of any in the game, but has many advantages to offset the low damage. If successful, this GHA adds 10 counts to the battle timer and restores a portion of Kosaku's health that is dependent on the amount of Heart Heat consumed. Kosaku and his opponent are also reset to their round-start positions. In addition, the time-looping effect uniquely allows Bites the Dust to reverse a number of character-specific effects, including any round- or match-lasting abilities. The following effects will be reversed:

- Evolutions (Kars, Giorno, Pannacotta Fugo, Johnny Joestar, and Pucci (Final))
- Destroyed HH Gauges (Jonathan Joestar, Rudol von Stroheim, Yukako Yamagishi, and Funny Valentine)
- Character-Specific Resources (Joseph Joestar, Mariah, Fugo, Prosciutto, Pucci (Final), and Steel Ball Run characters)
When low on health (Rumble Mode), instead of calling out the bomb's name, Kosaku will fiercely yell, "This is the limit! Push it!" (「限界」だッ！ 押すねッ！).
Attack type: Unblockable
Damage: 252 / 302 / 378 (depending on HH gauge)
“
Killer Queen! The Third Bomb... Aaaahhhh! Ahh... ahhh... Bites the Dust! Yes! I did it! I made it a reality! Ha ha ha ha! I'm back... (キラークイーン！ 『第３の爆弾』 うわああああああ あ、ああっ、あああ～っ ＢＩＴＥ ＴＨＥ ＤＵＳＴ （負けて死ね） やっ！ やったぞッ！ 発動したぞッ！ フハハハハ。戻ったぞ……)

Skills [Stand Off] (コマンド技)
Impact Ignition Bomb [☆]
+ // ON GROUND For the and variants of this skill, the projectile is much larger than it was in All-Star Battle, now being the same size across all variants. Instead of the air bomb always traveling straight, the button inputted now controls the trajectory of the projectile. As such, the speed and damage of the air bomb are no longer affected by the button inputted. Furthermore, the damage of the skill is significantly greater now, and it is not a single hitting attack, instead being three hits.
Additionally, the explosion from this skill is now a High rather than an Unblockable. As a trade off, this skill now deals heavy guard damage (50% of the bar).

2 ATK Buttons during "Impact Ignition Bomb" ON GROUND
The input for this skill has been changed. Previously it was + 2 ATK Buttons in place of 2 ATK Buttons. The number of times the trajectory of the air bomb can be changed has been standardized across versions to a maximum of three times, and suffers no damage penalty for doing so now. The speed increase when the trajectory is changed is less drastic than it was in All-Star Battle also, but this is more so due to the speed of the projectile being standardized to the fastest version.

I'll have to fight it out!
+ // ON GROUND This skill now launches the opponent instead of causing a hard knockdown, which allows this skill to be Flash Canceled later and still combo. In addition, the number of hits has been reduced and standardized. Because of this, the attack is shorter and Killer Queen now moves forward more before starting its punch barrage in order to cover a similar distance.
This stone is a bomb! [☆]
+ // ON GROUND WHEN DOWNED TRAP This skill is now a User Mode skill instead of only being available in Stand Mode. This skill can now be automatically triggered if a opponent touches the stone. This includes when they're downed. Instead of launching the opponent across the stage, the skill now launches them into the air, allowing Kosaku to combo off of this skill. When the stone triggers against a downed opponent, they will also now be launched into the air rather than staying downed, allowing Kosaku to continue his combos after a hard knockdown. The skill also hits twice now instead of only once.
Normals [Stand On] (通常技)
Standing Medium Attack
ON GROUND Killer Queen now moves forward when attacking, giving this normal more range. This also results in this move having more pushback than it did in All-Star Battle.
Standing Heavy Attack
ON GROUND Kosaku and Killer Queen move farther forward than they did in All-Star Battle.
Crouching Medium Attack
+ ON GROUND This attack executes much faster than it did in All-Star Battle.
Crouching Heavy Attack
+ ON GROUND Killer Queen moves forward while attacking now rather than staying in the same place to perform its attack.

I'll crush you!
+ ON GROUND This move can now be used freely instead of only being usable when an opponent is downed. As such, it can now be used to cancel normals and cancel into skills. It also now launches if it hits a standing opponent instead of causing normal hitstun.

Contact Bomb [☆]
+ // ON GROUND WHEN DOWNED The air bomb travels faster than it did in All-Star Battle with the difference being more noticeable the stronger the button inputted. The explosion is also now a High rather than being Unblockable. As a trade off, this skill now deals heavy guard damage (50% of the bar). The damage of this skill is significantly higher as well.
The First Bomb [☆]
+ // ON GROUND This skill is no longer an Unblockable; instead, it is now a High. The startup of this skill is significantly shorter as well, meaning that it will now properly combo out of Kosaku's normals. Killer Queen also now moves forward an increasing distance depending on what button is inputted.
Air Bomb Cushion
(While guarding) + 2 ATK Buttons for ½ HH ON GROUND
+ 2 ATK Buttons for ½ HH ON GROUND Instead of being a shielding skill that Kosaku can apply to himself to protect against the next attack he receives, this skill is now a pushblock skill that allows him to push the opponent away when he is guarding attacks at the cost of half a bar of the Heart Heat Gauge. The input for this skill has changed as a result. Previously it was + // instead of + 2 ATK Buttons.
+ // instead of + 2 ATK Buttons.
General Changes
- Kosaku's run speed in User Mode has been greatly decreased.
- While Kosaku can still be hit by the explosion from his own bombs, they no longer launch him, instead only dealing self-damage, which is greater than it was in All-Star Battle, and causing him to play a brief recovery animation.

Special Interactions
- Kosaku's Great Heat Attack, "Bites the Dust", rewinds time itself. In the process, Kosaku reverses several character-specific effects, including the following:
- Jonathan Joestar: If Jonathan has activated his "This is my final Ripple!" special and recovered using it, its passive effects will be undone and access to his Heart Heat Gauge will be restored to him.
- Joseph Joestar: If Joseph's "Guess I did it again!" Level has increased, it will be reverted back to its initial value. If his "Your next line is:" skill was previously executed successfully, access to that skill will remain locked.
- Rudol von Stroheim: If Stroheim has destroyed his own Heart Heat Gauge by successfully activating his "Farewell, you annoying Englishman!" skill, access to his Heart Heat Gauge will be restored to him.
- Wamuu: If any of Wamuu's installs ("Wind Mode", "Vapor Barrier", or "I shall see with the wind") are active, they will be canceled, and the Heart Heat spent will remain lost.
- Esidisi: If any of Esidisi's installs ("Heat Control" or "The Burning King") are active, they will be canceled, and the Heart Heat spent will remain lost.
- Kars: If Kars has evolved into the Ultimate Thing using his Great Heat Attack, his transformation will be undone. If any of his installs ("Light Mode" or "Brilliant Bone Blades") are active, they will be canceled as well.
- Mariah: If Mariah's Magnetization Gauge has increased, it will be reverted back to its initial value.
- Yukako Yamagishi: If Yukako's has used her "My precious hair! It's turned completely white!" special, access to her Heart Heat Gauge will be restored to her, though she is incapable of surviving the Great Heat Attack regardless.
- Giorno Giovanna: If Giorno has entered Requiem Mode using his Great Heat Attack, the install will be canceled, and the Heart Heat spent will remain lost.
- Pannacotta Fugo: If Fugo has evolved Purple Haze into Purple Haze Distortion using either his Great Heat Attack or his "Purple Haze Distortion" special, the transformation will be undone. If the transformation was activated with "Purple Haze Distortion", access to that special will remain locked. If any of Purple Haze's capsules have been broken, they will be fully restored.
- Prosciutto: If Prosciutto's Aging Gauge has increased, it will be reverted back to its initial value.
- Diavolo: If Diavolo has used his Heart Heat Attack to activate Epitaph, it will be canceled, and the Heart Heat spent will remain lost.
- Weather Report: If Weather's "Weather Report" install is active, it will be canceled, and the Heart Heart spent will remain lost.
- Enrico Pucci (Final): If Pucci (Final) has evolved his Stand into C-MOON or Made in Heaven, it will be reverted back to Whitesnake. If Made in Heaven is active, the stage will also revert to its previous state, and Pucci (Final) will be unable to enter Made in Heaven Mode again for the rest of the match. If Whitesnake is already active, any of the "14 Words" spoken to the Green Baby will be lost.
- Steel Ball Run Characters: If any Steel Ball Run character has Saint's Corpse Parts in their possession, they will be lost and reappear in a random location on the stage. If there are any unclaimed Parts on the ground, they will also be relocated to a random location.
- Johnny Joestar: If Johnny has evolved Tusk, the Stand will be reverted back to ACT1.
- Gyro Zeppeli: Gyro's Spin Gauge will revert to being half full, canceling Golden Spin Mode if Gyro has entered it. If any of Gyro's Steel Balls are in play, they will automatically be returned to him.
- Funny Valentine: If Valentine has used his "Back from the 'other side'" skill, access to his Heart Heat Gauge will be restored to him.
- When hit by Giorno Giovanna's Heart Heat Attack, Kosaku's pained expression mirrors his when Killer Queen is directly punched by Crazy Diamond during his final battle with Josuke.[3]
- When hit by Enrico Pucci's "It's an illusion." skill, Kosaku raises both his hands in disbelief, as he does when Okuyasu saves Josuke from his final air bomb.[4]
