THE MATTEKUDASAI

“

Using an existing thing, it can shapeshift into another thing that someone wants. I wish it worked with the things I want though.

”

—Usagi Alohaoe, The JOJOLands Chapter 2: South King Street

THE MATTEKUDASAI (THE MATTEKUDASAI(ザ・マッテクダサイ), Za Mattekudasai, lit. THE WAITPLEASE) is the Stand of Usagi Alohaoe, featured in the ninth part of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure series, The JOJOLands.

It has the ability to use an existing thing to shapeshift into what someone else wants it to be, excluding Usagi's own wishes.

Appearance

THE MATTEKUDASAI is a small mechanical bird-like Stand that fits in Usagi's palm. It has a bulbous body with a small forked tail as well as flat tear-shaped arms, which end in small digits that allow THE MATTEKUDASAI to grab onto objects or scale walls. It has humanoid mechanical legs with round knees and three large digits on each foot. It also bears Usagi's symbol on its chest, which resembles the outstretched arms of the Stand in a V shape. Its shoulder, hips, and ears have round studs grooved across the middle, as well as a semi-circle engraved on the rear-pointing side.

THE MATTEKUDASAI has a round head and is equipped with a mask which has the rough shape of a semi-cylinder with pointed fins at the end, as well as a flat front side and two large oval blank eyes.

THE MATTEKUDASAI appears to move by hopping on the ground like passerine birds.

Abilities

THE MATTEKUDASAI transforms into a fake camera

Wish Granting Transformation

THE MATTEKUDASAI can transform itself into any object, so long as someone else requests the object from Usagi; Usagi cannot command THE MATTEKUDASAI directly and instead instructs people to wish for things when he thinks his ability will be useful.^[1] The subject of the wish is not confined to nearby existing objects. Usagi proposes using it to locate Charming Man by transforming THE MATTEKUDASAI into a metal detector to find his knife,^[2] and later uses it to transform into a straw for an emergency thoracostomy.^[3]

There appears to be no limitation to the complexity of the objects the Stand transforms into. When Usagi gets Dragona to wish for a surveillance camera at Rohan's Villa, THE MATTEKUDASAI goes up to one of the legitimate cameras on the property to transform into a duplicate which then sends a false video feed to the villa's security system with all of their appearances drastically altered;^[4] they use this trick again when visiting the Hawaii State Land Registry Office to view the original copies of HOWLER Company's deeds to the slopes of Hualālai.^[5] It can even add complexity at request, such as adding LED lights to the end of a straw so Charming Man can use Bigmouth Strikes Again on his own eye to see inside Usagi's lung to locate an attacking enemy Stand.^[3]
