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 similar to a bug's, 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. Its torso is covered in a tesselated triangle motif similar to Caesar's headband or Jotaro's belt.

Abilities

Nuts and Bolts

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.

Nut King Call may also fuse whatever is between a nut and a connecting bolt. This is first demonstrated when Joshu dispatches of a bar owner and his men by connecting their body parts together and escaping as they stumbled around. Later, he does the same to a bottle that Zaihei Nigatake was drinking from and the cursed money generated from Milagro Man.

Trivia

  • Nut King Call's name is a pun founded on the fact that this and Nat King Cole are pronounced the same way in Japanese.
  • The bug-like appearance of Nut King Call is quite similar to characters of the Kamen Rider.
