Wu Tomoki
- The character featured in this article is commonly referred to as "Uu Tomoki".
Dr. Wu Tomoki (
Dr. Wu is an orthopedic surgeon and cosmetic dermatologist working at T.G. University Hospital, who has been seeing Mitsuba Higashikata for a series of ailments.
Wu is a Stand user, and uses his Doctor Wu to break his body down into fine particles to travel across long distances or attack his opponents.
Appearance
Dr. Wu sports a bizarre-looking flattop consisting primarily of small light-colored spheres. He has dark spiked bangs covering the front, with similar tufts of hair outlining the top of his head. His uniform features a long closed jacket with three "DoCToR" name tags on it: two on the front and one on his shoulder.
Personality
Wu claims that he has never experienced failure once in his entire life, citing very importent events such as exams as proof of his perfection. He even goes so far as to say that he's never failed at love, never approaching women if he senses that there might be anything wrong with them.
Wu considers himself to be righteous as a doctor who heals anyone who comes to him without fail, opposing his goal to use the Rokakaka as a "public good" used to heal instead of the more personal goals of Josuke. As a consequence, he also considers that anything he does to heal his patients, however evil or vulgar they may be, will be forgiven.
Wu is also very secretive about his involvement with a group of Rock Humans operating from the hospital. He goes to very extreme lengths to keep information from those who could potentially be a threat, disassembling and hiding an entire wheelchair and seemingly vanishing moments after treating a patient to avoid confrontation with Yasuho when she becomes suspicious of Mitsuba's presence at the hospital.
Abilities
Wu Tomoki's Stand Doctor Wu has the power to let him break his body up into its stony fragments at will and then use these fragments to enter people's bodies. Not only does his Rock Human physiology cause allergic reactions in his victims, but if his body fragments fuse with the victim's skeleton, he can gain partial control over their bodies.
History
Background
Wu Tomoki graduated from T.G. University's medical department before working at their hospital as a professional physician.[3]
Equivalent Exchange and the University Hospital
Dr. Wu Tomoki examines Mitsuba's right ear which she has complained she cannot hear out of as it feels like it's a rock. Despite finding her complaints to be true, he says she is perfectly healthy, until she says money is no object to cure her illness. He makes a phone call, and then offers a one-time only charge of 200 million yen to cure her. In between examining her, he eats his lunch, which comprises only nori and silicon-infused water.
It is suggested that he has been treating her with the Rokakaka, causing a series of maladies where her body parts have been turning to stone.
Yasuho Hirose investigates the security camera footage Josuke sent her using Paisley Park and suspects that he is one of the ambulance drivers involved in the death of Poor Tom. She is suspicious of his absence when Mitsuba leaves his office, when she discovers the wheelchair Mitsuba had been sitting in completely disassembled and stuffed into Dr. Wu's desk, before both are attacked by stone fragments and Mitsuba drags her in while under someone else's control.
