In Video Games

Jump Ultimate Stars (DS Game)

Rohan appears as a 1-Koma character (which provides immunity from the Battle and Support Seal status effects) and as a menu explanatory character, representing the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure franchise. This is also his first appearance in any game media.

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle (PS3 Game)

Rohan makes his first playable appearance in JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle. Because of his Stand's power, most of his special moves and attacks have the ability to inflict status effects on the enemy, particularly locking away different types of attacks. Since Rohan isn't a character built for combat, most of his moves are either made up or based on his ability to draw; His only real physical attack to appear in the game is the punch he delivered to Ken Oyagani (the "Jan Ken Pon"/"Rock, Paper, Scissors" punch), which is his throw.

His HHA move has him send Heaven's Door to assault the enemy and turning a section of their face into 'material', before Rohan quickly rips a piece out and guffaws, locking the opponent's special abilities but not their standard attacks. His GHA move, using Heaven's Door, knocks the opponent to the ground and converts their entire face into material, upon which he writes "I cannot attack Kishibe Rohan" on the margin, proceeding to palm the enemy's face closed, sending his opponent flying. This GHA's unique property prevents the enemy from using any and all attacks.

All attacks that are sealed away by Rohan cause the opponent to flinch when attempting to use them, giving Rohan a small window of time to attack. All seals last roughly 5 counts of the battle timer, until Rohan resets or replaces the active seal, or until an opponent successfully lands a hit on Rohan with an unsealed attack.

Rohan is a low-damage fighter, relying on his seals and ability to rapidly build the Heart Heat Gauge in order to effectively battle. Having attacks at all ranges and potential to use HHG-consuming actions (HHA, GHA, Stand Disconnect and Connect, and Puttsun Cancels) more frequently makes up for his sub-par damage output. Rohan can force his opponent into a defensive playstyle with a combination of the right type of seals and attacks, but can be properly countered with characters that are not as hindered by certain seals than others.

Amongst many other notable costumes in the game, one of Rohan's unlockable costumes is his outfit from Under Execution Under Jailbreak.

Eyes of Heaven (PS3/PS4)

Rohan was confirmed for the game alongside Okuyasu and "Kosaku Kawajiri".

Tournament

He is paired with Jean Pierre Polnareff in the Eyes of Heaven Tournament, but was eliminated in the preliminaries by Giorno Giovanna and Guido Mista.

Trivia

  • Rohan's valued possessions include Sailor Moon figures, Led Zeppelin paper sleeves, and the Rurouni Kenshin series.[1]
  • Despite popular belief, Araki has stated that Rohan is not based off his person, and the two are vastly different. He does admit however, after being asked if he would lick a spider like Rohan, t
