Rubber Soul or Robber Soul in the English localization, appears as a playable character in the Capcom games. He was added to Heritage for the Future as a secret unlockable character, and is a Passive Stand user, wielding Yellow Temperance.
Command List & Gameplay
Rubber Soul might essentially be a palette swap of Kakyoin, but his playstyle differs greatly. He lacks an active Stand and instead elects to call Yellow Temperance to the battlefield temporarily for his special attacks. His moves tend to be slow and clumsy, as he cannot block or perform any follow-up attacks (aside from his light punch) while Yellow Temperance is still visible on the screen.
Story Mode
Rubber Soul is an assassin sent by DIO to destroy Jotaro Kujo and his companions.
In Super Story Mode on the PS1 version, Rubber Soul is the 8th Stage and the battle mirrors the manga.
A hired Stand master has his eye on Jotaro and company. His intention is to slay them all!
Rubber Soul: My Stand can absorb the flesh to assimilate and take on the form of anyone! A disguise, perfect in both look and feel!
Rubber Soul: With the help of my Yellow Temperance, I'll destroy them all so that I can collect the ultimate reward from DIO!
Rubber Soul: Hey, that guy walking out of the hotel is Jotaro... I'll approach him using the form of Kakyoin...
Rubber Soul: Wa ha ha ha ha! It looks like today is my lucky day!
Rubber Soul: My reward from DIO is supposed to be 100 million dollars! Ha ha! Only a few minutes of fighting will make me a multi-millionaire!
Rubber Soul: I'm the luckiest guy in the world! Wouldn't you agree, bonehead?
(人喰いテンパランス Hitokui Tenperansu)
In the city of Singapore, Kakyoin punches Jotaro and laughs it off as a prank, leading Jotaro to suspect that something is influencing him. In an attempt to wake him up, Jotaro punches Kakyoin, only to discover that Kakyoin's form itself is a Stand ability. The enemy, Rubber Soul, reveals his true form beneath his Stand Yellow Temperance's disguise before further taunting Jotaro with his supposed good looks. After the fight, Jotaro interrogates Rubber Soul, who reveals that four more Stand users are after the group: Death Thirteen, Empress, Hanged Man, and Emperor. Jotaro turns to leave and tell Polnareff, but Rubber Soul attacks from behind; unfazed, Jotaro pummels him and knocks him out.
