Nut King Call
Nut King Call (ナット・キング・コール, Natto Kingu Kōru) is the Stand of Joshu Higashikata, featured in JoJolion.
Appearance
Nut King Call is a humanoid Stand similar in height to Joshu. It has screws embedded both in the sides of its head and its spindly arms; two shield-shaped eyes, and a ruff collar of sorts composed of many nuts and bolts. On its forehead rests a large V. Its face and arms are also textured with slight ridges.
Abilities
Nuts & Bolts - Disassembly: By planting nuts and bolts in a target, Nut King Call creates functional artificial joints. When a nut is removed from a bolt, which may be done almost instantly, the object breaks up and is disassembled.
These separations seem to undo themselves when a target is out of range, as seen when a thug accosting Joshu finds his hands reattached (albeit incorrectly) when Joshu flees.
Nuts & Screws - Fusion: Nut King Call may also fuse together whatever is between a nut and a connecting screw. This is first demonstrated when Joshu makes quick work of a bar owner and his men by connecting their body parts together and escaping as they stumbled around. Later, he does something similar to a bottle that Zaihei Nigatake was drinking from and the cursed money generated from The Milagro Man's Stand; By fusing the money with the bottle, Joshu was able to make Nigatake touch the money, therefore passing the curse back unto him.
Trivia
- This Stand works in a way comparable to Sticky Fingers, by planting screws instead of zippers.
- The name of the Stand functions by how "nut" and "Nat" are both pronounced natto in Japanese.
- The design around Nut King Call's upper torso bears the same design as Caesar Anthonio Zeppeli's headband and Jotaro Kujo's belt in Stardust Crusaders.
