Joshu Higashikata
Joshu Higashikata (東方 常秀, Higashikata Jōshū) est un allié secondaire figurant dans la huitième partie de JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, JoJolion.
Joshu est le troisième enfant gâté de Norisuke Higashikata IV. Lui aussi amoureux de Yasuho Hirose, Joshu déteste cordialement Josuke Higashikata et a une relation houleuse avec lui. Joshu devient lui aussi un manieur de Stand et acquiert Nut King Call, qui lui permet de déboulonner des objets.
Apparence
Joshu est un jeune homme japonais de 18 ans, avec une carrure normale mais une taille au dessus de la moyenne. Il a les yeux plissés durant sa première apparition, mais ceci disparait après. Après qu'il mange un nouveau Locacaca et effectue un Echange Equivalent avec Yasuho Hirose, Joshu perd son bras droit, qui se rétracte jusqu'à ce qu'il en reste un moignon avec une petite main, presque à hauteur d'épaule.
Le trait physique le plus distinctif de Joshu est sa coiffure. Sa tête est rasée (ou chauve) sur les côtés, sauf pour une bande de cheveux raides et courts qui parcourt le centre de son crâne de l'arrière à l'avant, avec une mèche rectangulaire qui pend au centre de son front et derrière son crâne. Kaato prétend que Joshu a cette coiffure parce qu'il ne buvait pas assez de lait.[1]
Joshu porte une chemise à manches courtes distinctif, avec une sorte de col épais décoré d'un nœud papillon. Sur le devant, sa chemise est décorée d'un motif de grille à trois colonnes (deux colonnes de carrés de part et d'autres de la colonne centrale, rectangulaire), et décoré avec des flèches sur les épaules. Il porte un pantalon foncé moulant avec des entailles. Enfin, Joshu a des bracelets épais aux poignets.
Depuis sa première rencontre avec Josuke près des Murs qui Voient, Joshu a des marques de morsure sur son genou gauche.
Palettes
Personnalité
Egocentrique, immature et désagréable, Joshu est l'archétype même du jeune malpoli gâté par son père Norisuke Higashikata IV.
Le trait de caractère le plus proéminent de Joshu est son impolitesse exceptionnelle. Il est plutôt vulgaire et manque de respect à la plupart des gens de son entourage. Il a tendance à insulter et à se disputer avec ses interlocuteurs. Durant l'histoire, Joshu concentre sa haine envers Josuke Higashikata parce que Josuke envahi sa vie et est un rival pour l'affection de Yasuho, et va par exemple se moquer du fait que Josuke n'a pas de famille.[2] Lorsque sa soeur Hato présente son copain Tamaki Damo à la famille, Joshu se moque immédiatement de son apparence, riant rien qu'en le voyant[3] et va continuellement agir de façon impolie envers son invité. Quand sa mère Kaato Higashikata se présente à lui et à ses soeurs, Joshu se montre hostile envers elle. Par simple antipathie après que Kaato ait fait une remarque à propos de ses cheveux, Joshu lui fait un croc-en-jambe pour l'empêcher de serrer Daiya dans ses bras et la déshabille via son pouvoir pour l'humilier en public.[1] Yasuho note d'ailleur que Joshu n'a aucun savoir-être, malgré le fait qu'il étudie la sociologie à l'université. Joshu a rivalité bon enfant avec sa soeur Hato, et respecte beaucoup son grand frère Jobin. Joshu semble respecter habituellement son père Norisuke, mais est tout de même gâté par ce dernier.
Joshu a très mauvais caractère et est sujet à de violents accès de rage. A un moment, Joshu a dégainé un couteau pour frapper Joshu à un moment lorsque Joshu a cru que Josuke lui volait son argent.[4] De fait, Joshu et Josuke se sont battus presque immédiatement après s'être rencontré. Lorsque Joshu a cru que Josuke séduisait Yasuho, ce dernier a pris une pierre et a voulu fracasser le crâne de Josuke avec. Joshu se fiche de respecter les règles ou la loi, et on le voit voler le porte-feuille de Zaihei Nigataka puis prendre une grosse somme d'argent pour se venger du fait que Nigatake l'avait "doublé" dans une file d'attente, et se justifiant même du fait parce que Nigatake a été assez "stupide" pour avoir un code de carte de crédit facile à deviner.[5]
Joshu est aussi très egoïste et égocentrique, agissant toujours pour son seul intérêt. Son égoïsme est démontré à plusieurs occasions. Par exemple, Joshu va se plaindre à son père d'avoir perdu sa place au centre des photos de familles lorsque Norisuke accueille Norisuke, ou bien se plaint que Norisuke a donné sa chambre à Josuke avant que Norisuke ne le fasse taire en lui donnant de l'argent.[6] Quand Norisuke suggère à Joshu de trouver un travail pour contribuer à la société et de gagner son propre argent, Joshu l'ignore et insiste pour que son père lui donne de l'argent à dépenser en produit dérivés frivoles.[5] Son égocentrique va de pair avec son amour fou de Yasuho Hirose, et il est convaincu qu'elle l'aime. Joshu affirme qu'il a une relation avec Yasuho, l'appelle "sa" Yasuho (ce qui agace cette dernière), et semble ignorer le fait qu'elle essaie perpétuellement de l'éviter. Joshu a tendance à se faire des délires quand cela concerne Yasuho. Par exemple, lorsque Yasuho rend visite à Joshu et à Josuke à l'hôpital, Joshu se persuade que Yasuho lui a offert une boîte de mochis de foix plus grande que celle de Josuke parce qu'elle l'aime deux fois plus, ou encore lorsque Yasuho le méprend pour Josuke à cause du pouvoir Stand de Tsurugi Higashikata, Joshu croit rapidement qu'elle le désire.
En général, Joshu vit dans son monde et est très arrogant. Par exemple, lorsqu'il remarque finalement les nombreuses coïncidences qui l'amènent à amasser de l'argent, Joshu se persuade qu'il est simplement très chanceux et se félicite, alors qu'en vérité c'est le Stand Milagro Man qui cause ces coîncidences. Joshu est arrogant et se qualifie de "quelqu'un en qui tout le monde compte", même si ce n'est pas vrai du tout[7] Cependant, Joshu cache secrètement de grands doutes. En privé, Joshu reconnait qu'il n'a rien de spécial et n'a rien fait de significatif dans sa vie, et donc doute de sa valeur.[8] Après la mort de son frère, Joshu va aussi se blâmer et se frapper même par culpabilité, car il sait qu'il n'a pas pu protéger sa famille.[9]
Joshu se montre superficiel et dépensier. Après avoir volé de l'argent à Zaihei Nigatake, Joshu se met à dépenser sans compter son argent mal gagné, le gaspillant pour des choses frivoles telles qu'une montre-bracelet de luxe, ou bien dans l'achat de neuf places au cinéma juste pour pouvoir s'asseoir seul au centre, ou encore en entrant dans un club d'hôtesses en jetant des objets divers dans la poitrine des femmes, déclarant ouvertement qu'il préfère les femmes aux gros seins. Il gaspille également de l'argent pour acheter des produits dérivés de l'idole Rena Nanami.[5]
Joshu a semble t'il des tendances paranoïaques, ou du moins ne fait confiance à peu de chose. Il a déclaré ne pas croire en Dieu par exemple, dit que la perspective de prendre l'avion l'effraie car il craint de s'écraser, et est réticent à boire ou à manger des crêpes faites avec du lait datant d'un jour de plus que sa date d'expiration imprimée sur le carton, comparant cela à "traverser un pont branlant". De même, il s'est montré très méfiant à l'égard d'un paquet de saucisses au poisson, essayant de mesurer précisément la longueur desdites saucisses pour vérifier s'il ne se fait pas arnaquer. Joshu est très méfiant avec des inconnus, se montrant très hostile envers Kaato et à Rai Mamezuku dès qu'il les rencontre.
La seule personne que Joshu respecte vraiment est Jobin Higashikata, son frère aîné. Joshu admire et loue les réalisations et les capacités de Jobin, et se d'ailleurs se tait quand Jobin le raille, un fait unique à Jobin. Il a également une relation assez humoristique avec Hato. Ils partagent quelques moments de complicité, mais la plupart de leurs interactions se résument à de petites disputes et à des farces. Joshu interagit également peu avec Daiya, agissant de manière plus ou moins distante à son égard. Lors des récents événements qui ont secoué la Famille Higashikata, Joshu a fait preuve d'une certaine loyauté envers sa famille. Après que le verger de la famille ait brûlé, Joshu a sérieusement proposé qu'ils convertissent leurs terre en terrain de chasse aux champignons matsutake ou de chasse au plants de bambou au printemps afin d'avoir un certain revenu.[10] Lorsque Tsurugi est véritablement tombé malade de la Maladie Pétrifiante, il ne savait pas quoi faire mais a au moins essayé de remonter le moral de Norisuke et de le motiver à trouver une solution ensemble. [11] Lorsque la vie de Yasuho était en danger, on sous-entend que Joshu a désobéi aux ordres de Jobin et a réellement agi pour sauver Yasuho de son grand frère en poussant le téléphone dans lequel se trouvait Paisley Park près d'une prise de courant alors que Jobin prévoyait de le tuer.[12] Après que Norisuke et Jobin semblent mourir sous ses yeux, Joshu finit par se pousser à agir et sort de la maison pour sauver Yasuho et effectuer un Échange équivalent pour la sauver, bien qu'il ne réalise pas pleinement l'étendue de ce qu'il doit sacrifier.[9]
Pouvoirs
Stand
Le Stand de Joshu, Nut King Call, est un Stand humanoïde qui lui confère le pouvoir de faire apparition des vis/écrous sur n'importe quel objet ou personne. En dévissant ces écrous et en les revissant, Joshu peut désassembler et réassembler comme bon lui semble des objets et des personnes comme s'ils étaient des objets à pièces détachés. Selon le moment, le processus semble être temporaire ou bien permanent. Les vis/écrous sont actuellement visibles pour les personnes ordinaires. Nut King Call avait été activé de manière subconsciente mais au fil de l'histoire de JoJolion, Joshu apprend à s'en servir.
Compétences personnelles
Joshu a un petit niveau au combat à mains nus. Lorsque Josuke Higashikata, qui vient d'émerger du sol, essaie de l'agripper, Joshu s'échappe facilement de la prise de Josuke et contre-attaque.
Histoire
Passé
Joshu Higashikata est le fils cadet de Norisuke Higashikata IV, le troisième parmi ses frères et soeurs. Avant les évènements de JoJolion, Joshu a vécu une vie normale, étant pour la plupart ignorant de tous les phénomènes surnaturels qui se passaient à Morioh. Durant son enfance, Joshu était ami avec Yasuho Hirose. Il devint amoureux d'elle, mais elle s'éloigna de lui. Joshu fait des études en sociologie à l'université, un fait que Yasuho trouve ironique car il n'a aucune compétence sociale.[13] Yasuho et Joshu se seraient embrassés une fois, et une seule.[14]
JoJolion (2011)
Rencontre avec Josuke
Après le Séisme de 2011 de la côte Pacifique du Tōhoku, la ville de Morioh est partiellement dévastée. Alors qu'il suit Yasuho, Joshu la retrouve près des Murs qui Voient avec un homme nu. Yasuho a en fait secourue cet homme de la noyade, mais Joshu méprend la situation. Fou de rage et de jalousie, Joshu prend un caillou et veut tuer l'homme avec, disant qu'il se tuera après. L'homme nu essaie de se battre, mais Joshu prend l'avantage et s'apprête à asséner un coup fatal. Cependant, une bulle sort de la tache de naissance en forme d'étoile de l'homme nu, et elle éclate près des yeux de Joshu. Joshu est aveuglé, ce qui permet à l'homme de l'assommer.[15] On revoit Joshu alité à l'hôpital. Il voit Yasuho partir avec l'homme inconnu de l'hôpital. Joshu fulmine, mais se console en se disant que sa boîte de boulettes au sirop de sésame est plus grande que celle que l'inconnu a reçu de Yasuho. On voit d'ailleurs une marque de morsure sur la jambe de Joshu, qui a encore des étranges vertiges.[16]
Plus tard, Norisuke Higashikata IV adopte l'homme, qu'on nomme Josuke Higashikata, au sein de la Famille Higashikata. Au moment où la famille accueille Josuke, Norisuke IV installe celui-ci dans la chambre de Joshu tandis que ce dernier est relégué à la chambre au-dessus du garage. Joshu proteste, mais Norisuke le fait taire en lui donnant un peu d'argent. La famille se place alors pour faire une photo commémorative ensemble. Joshu, en rage quand il voit Josuke faire venir Yasuho près d'elle et lui tenir la main, dit alors que Jobin est absent. Norisuke annule la séance photo, refusant que son héritier soit absent de toute photo de famille.
Joshu doit alors tolérer la présence de Josuke. Un matin, Joshu et sa soeur Hato font leur toilette dans la salle de bain. Josuke vient et emprunte le rasoir de Joshu, et se rase. Hato s'inquiète que Josuke appuie trop fort sur sa tempe, mais Joshu le laisse faire, pour qu'il se blesse. Contre toute attente, Josuke se rase sans se couper. Josuke utilise alors discrètement les bulles de Soft & Wet pour appliquer ses poils sur les visages de Hato et de Joshu. Les deux s'en rendent compte et se moquent mutuellement l'un de l'autre avant de réaliser qu'ils sont aussi couverts de poils.[17] A un autre moment, Joshu surprend Josuke en train de sortir de l'argent de son pantalon sorti de la lessive. Joshu croit que Josuke est en train de lui voler de l'argent et n'écoute pas les explications de Josuke. Joshu veut se battre et sort discrètement un couteau d'une poche. Norisuke les interrompt et résoud la situation avant qu'elle ne dégénère.[18]
Le passage des chantages
The next day, at the breakfast table, Josuke asks Norisuke for a cell phone as well as the chance to go to school. Norisuke agrees but orders Joshu to escort him. Joshu tests Josuke with a trigonometric problem, which he solves, before Joshu asks him to walk with him to a different high school as a favor. Josuke and Joshu travel to Shakedown Road, known for its community of hustlers. Joshu hopes to record himself being robbed in order to complain with evidence to the police for an earlier crime. Arriving there, Joshu unknowingly breaks a child's "compact" toy before her mother demands compensation; as does Josuke a turtle tank in a nearby store window, apparently killing the turtles inside; for which the store owner extorts Josuke for ¥20,000 and a plan to pay off ¥330,000. Joshu captures the event with his phone; discovering that Josuke had stepped on leaves, rushed almost instantly to the tank, and then back, unaware. This intrigues Joshu.
Three thugs then confront Josuke and accuse Josuke of having made one drop his cell phone into a puddle. Watching another recording just made, Josuke sees himself again slide backward, knock into the man, then return to his original position, again unaware. The men propose that Josuke deliver a package underneath a nearby flower pot to a nearby woman as compensation. Having been set up to exchange an illegal substance, the two are soon arrested by a pair of police officers also observing.
Meanwhile, Joshu has realized how the scattered gingko leaves are responsible for instantaneously transporting people and objects. He positions himself to intercept their exchange of money and seizes an envelope before running away. The dealers notice Joshu's sleight and give chase, easily catching up using the ginkgo leaves. A thug prepares to beat him but a nut and screw suddenly materialize on one of his hands. Confused; the man unscrews it, causing his hand to detach from his wrist. Panic rises among them as his other hand falls and more screws form, before Joshu's Stand, Nut King Call, is fully revealed. Joshu escapes. Catching his breath in a playground, Joshu is happy to have outwitted everyone and expresses some sympathy for Josuke. However, he discovers that his stolen money is in fact composed of leaves.
Paper Moon - Illusion
Later, Joshu notices that Josuke has used his phone to call Yasuho. He seeks Josuke and confronts him, unaware that Josuke is under the effects of Paper Moon King. Josuke is left confused about who is screaming at him. Soon after, Joshu calls Yasuho. However, Yasuho too is affected by Paper Moon King too and mistakes Joshu for Josuke. Yasuho hugs Joshu and tells him that she was waiting for him, which makes Joshu ecstatic about this situation. The misunderstanding escalates until Joshu thinks that Yasuho wants to have sex and he brings her to an unoccupied public toilet. Joshu takes off his pants and begins to undress Yasuho but Yasuho smashes a cistern lid against his skull, taking him out.
Joshu would later wake up and misremember the incident, claiming to Josuke that they were having a moment.
Vacances quotidiennes
When Jobin returns from his business trip to Southeast Asia and brings everyone gifts, Joshu receives a fake lobster, while the rest of the Higashikata Family seemingly receive funnier gifts. He mockingly asks Josuke what he's received only to be told that Josuke's been given a precious wristwatch and a rare beetle. At the Higashikata's, the family members are having fun showing each other the strange gifts Jobin got for them. Josuke asks if he can go to Jobin's room, saying he needs advice for raising his stag beetle. Joshu subsequently accompanies Josuke to Jobin's room. Josuke inspects the live beetles, and pointing at one Palawanicus, nonchalantly mentions that his Palawanicus could beat it in a straight fight. Joshu is angry at his conceitedness but Jobin is interested and challenges Josuke to a beetle fight. Josuke uses the opportunity to raise the stacks with a bet. The first round begins between the two Palawanicus. At first, Jobin's beetle gets the upper hand due to its sharpened mandibles and planted female pheromones from a brush, making it push Josuke's beetle to the border of the arena. The tables are turned when Josuke releases the pheromones he planted in the soft rush plants with his bubbles. Josuke's beetle then makes Jobin's beetle flee out of the arena. A frustrated Jobin shaves off his left eyebrow.
Despite his loss, Jobin is enjoying himself and challenges Josuke to another beetle fight, and again Josuke accepts. Moreover, Jobin orders his brother to cheer Josuke on, which Joshu accepts. Josuke then proposes to bet the Lamborghini Jobin owns. Jobin accepts and decides to use a Rosenbergi beetle. As the match begins, Jobin tells Josuke that if he wins, he is allowed to lick Josuke's eyeball. The Palawanicus' superior size and weight enables it to push the Rosenbergi to the border of the ring. However, the Rosenbergi suddenly moves in an unnaturally precise manner, knocking the Palawanicus over and biting off one leg. The Palawanicus is almost pushed over the border as Josuke reads from an encyclopedia that stag beetles instinctively play dead when feeling strong vibrations at their legs. Intrigued that the Rosenbergi could exploit this weakness, Josuke secretly deduces that Jobin could in fact remotely command it. As the Rosenbergi chomps off another leg, Josuke notices liquid oozing from its head. The Palawanicus falls from the ring, but since the clock went over 45 seconds, Josuke has not lost.
Before the second bout, Josuke secretly plunders the scent from Jobin's paintbrush and then inquires about the liquid. Jobin reveals that it's wax, that when melted will cause convulsions in the beetle and eventually kill it, but not before Jobin wins. As the second round begins, Josuke pops the bubbles that plundered the air around this paintbrush, and is baffled to discover that the paintbrush has exuded a temperature as high as 60 °C. As the Rosenbergi slowly overwhelms the Palawanicus with its precise movement, Josuke witnesses a faint apparition of Jobin's Stand. Josuke then realizes that the beetle fight has been a front for a Stand battle. Suddenly Joshu knocks his foot on the tank where the hornet was killed and asks where the lower half of it's body with the stinger went. The abdomen is shown to be near Josuke who is now showing confidence as the Rosenbergi goes mad and convulses. Josuke had planted some of the hornet's poison in Jobin's brush, which eventually killed his beetle, making Josuke the winner. Josuke takes the key and manages to escape even if Jobin wants to interrogate him. Joshu accuses Josuke of wanting the Lamborghini to check its event data recorder but Jobin doubts it. They do check the garage but see nothing suspicious.
Hato Présente son Copain
One day, Hato brings her first boyfriend home. The boyfriend is revealed to be a short and overweight man named Tamaki Damo which greatly amuses Joshu. His amusement eventually turns into dismay as Damo is shown to be extremely awkward and balding even. Joshu is made to serve some champagne to the guest and Joshu notices that his bracelet have slipped out of his wrist. Damo asks where the bathrooms are, and Joshu tells him to go to the door on the right in the corridor. However, Joshu sees Damo briefly entering the room on the left, the pantry. Suspicious, Joshu checks in the room and sees that the cabinet where the CCTV system is stored has been broken. He touches the cabinet but soon realizes that his body is abnormally soft. Before he can call for help, Joshu trips into the sink where the water washes him away.
However, Damo is soon defeated by Hato, assisted by Josuke. Joshu eventually comes out of the sewer, unharmed.
Milagro Man
Two weeks prior to Kaato Higashikata's release, Joshu asks for money from his father Norisuke as he wishes to buy idol items. After the meet-and-greet, Joshu spends time choosing the goodies he wants to buy, only to be cut off by a fellow fan who already chose what he wanted. Upset, Joshu realizes that this man left his wallet on the counter and steals it just as the man returns to find his wallet. In the restroom, Joshu steals all the cash inside the wallet and the cash card, withdrawing 500,000 yen from his victim's bank account after correctly guessing the code. Happy to have outsmarted his victim, Joshu indulges himself in a shopping spree, trying to buy an expensive wristwatch, several movie tickets for one showing, and eating in a luxurious restaurant. At the same time, due to many coincidences, Joshu doesn't actually lose his money, but accumulates more and more as he tries to spend it. Thinking that he is lucky, Joshu doesn't pay much attention to it.
However, when he tries to spend his money in a bar, the manager and several security guards interrogate him about the money. To Joshu's surprise, the owner is furious that he is trying to give him the money and mentions a "Milagro Man". For unknown reasons, the owner forces more money into Joshu's pocket and tries to beat him up. Joshu uses Nut King Call to fight back and flees. Joshu eventually notices that the staff put even more money inside his bag, making him feel suspicious. Nervous to have so much money and realizing that whenever he tries to spend his money, he instead receives more, Joshu examines the bills but sees nothing unusual. He decides to gamble in a boat race and wins 3.1 million yen. At first happy, Joshu then notices that the money inside his bag has somehow increased, making it impossible to close. Anxious that someone could discover his money, Joshu tries to hide it inside a coin locker. As he pushes the money inside, Joshu sees that the immatriculation of the bills all finish with "13R". The locker breaks down, letting some of the money fly away, but all the bystander then return the money without asking questions. Joshu then tries to take a taxi home, but the taxi driver then tries to return the money. Joshu insists that he keeps the cash, and the two eventually struggle to have the other one take the money. Joshu accidentally burns one of the bills and sees it multiplying at high speed and to his horror, the money begins to cover him.
Joshu wakes up on his home's couch, thinking that he's merely dreamed the past events. However when he returns to his room, it is flooded with money which falls into him. Joshu tracks down his victim, named Zaihei Nigatake, and blames him for what's happening to him. Zaihei, grateful toward Joshu for taking his "curse", explains everything to him. This cursed money which never goes away from its owner is said to have belonged to an arms dealer named the Milagro Man. The Milagro Man lost a lawsuit and went mad, killing his whole family and setting his mansion on fire, burning everything except a single scorched bill. The curse remained inside the money and two years ago, Zaihei unwittingly took the curse in Europe and returned to Japan, living hell waiting for someone to take the curse. Zaihei advises Joshu to have someone take the money and try to destroy it to pass the curse completely. When Zaihei takes a bottle of juice and opens it, Joshu reveals that he planted some of the money inside the wrapping. When Zaihei opened it, he unwittingly tore the bills inside, and he sees the money appearing around him and burying him. Zaihei begs Joshu, but the latter departs, cleared of the curse. On his way home, Joshu melancholically ponders his true worth in the world.
L'aube des Higashikata
One day, the matriarch Kaato Higashikata returns. Kaato, berating Norisuke for having never mentioned her, comments on how Daiya, Joshu and Hato have grown, exposing herself as their mother. Norisuke rebukes Kaato, saying that Kaato should have called to tell him that she was freed, but Kaato justifies herself that she wanted to see her children as soon as possible after 15 years in prison. Finally, Hato explains that she murdered a child. Unfazed by the revelation of her crime, Kaato demands that she has compensation for her time in prison. Daiya, curious about Kaato, is told by her mother to come hug her, but Joshu pushes a chair and makes Kaato trip. Joshu then begins to antagonize Kaato, then tricks her into undressing herself, exposing his skepticism about Kaato's relationship with the family. Kaato's cards fall over, causing a curious Joshu to pick them up, but a chair suddenly appears from one of them, impaling Joshu in the jaw. Furious, Kaato scolds Joshu for underestimating her and is outraged that her love for her family isn't returned. Kaato leaves, offended.
La Pression d'Ozon Baby
Joshu is seen at the Higashikata House, having breakfast with his family as Jobin buries Ozon Baby in the garden. He measures the size and weight of the fish sausages the family is eating in order to find out if the company making them has made them smaller in exchange for having more sausages per package. To his dismay, the family ignores his "investigation" and eats all of the sausages. After Ozon Baby is activated and the Higashikata household is affected by the Stand's ability, Joshu is seen bleeding from the face and unconscious on the couch alongside his father.
En route pour l'hôpital universitaire TG
The family's orchard is burned down but the attack on the family stops. Joshu angrily yells at Rai Mamezuku, whom he doesn't know, but the misunderstanding is soon cleared. He accuses him of setting the orchard on fire, but his accusation is quickly shot down by Norisuke. The family, Josuke and Rai discuss what has happened and what to do next. As Hato worries about the family's livelihood, Joshu proposes an idea of how the family could make money: a Matsutake mushroom hunting tour (turned into a bamboo shoot hunting tour in the Spring), as well as adopting red pandas and building a go-kart track. His fantasizing is interrupted by Daiya, who notifies him that everyone else has already left.
Le nouveau Locacaca
On the day of the harvest, a string of events result in the Higashikata Family catching Jobin and Mitsuba trying to drown Paisley Park. Joshu is forced to see his family tearing itself apart as Norisuke exposes Jobin's murder of Ojiro Sasame and Jobin induces a heat stroke in Norisuke with Speed King. Unlike his sisters, he has the presence of mind to help Paisley Park escape the house, giving Yasuho a chance to survive. Jobin doesn't act on this. Eventually, the family sees that Jobin is victim of Akefu's Stand attack.
While Yasuho prepares for battle, Joshu panics at the loss of his right arm because he wasn't fully aware of what he would sacrifice. Joshu quickly changes his mind due to the consequences of the Equivalent Exchange, and demands to have a second Equivalent Exchange with the only Locacaca left to have his arm back. However, Yasuho refuses, stating that the fruit is for Josuke. This enrages Joshu, who advances to attack Yasuho, even summoning Nut King Call to fight. However, he trips on the potted Locacaca and falls to the ground.
Tooru then appears to ask Yasuho to hand him the potted Locacaca. Regaining his senses, Joshu threatens Tooru for daring to speak so casually to her and summons Nut King Call. The three of them see something big falling towards them from the sky. Tooru grabs Yasuho, insisting that he must take the Locacaca before it is swept up in a calamity, which enrages Joshu. Joshu tries to attack Tooru, but a leaf cuts off two of his fingers. Overwhelmed, by the pain, Joshu trips on Yasuho, allowing Tooru to take the pot. At the plane slide panel comes dangerously close to Yasuho, Joshu promises to somehow protect her. As the panel nearly reaches Yasuho, Paisley Park suddenly comes out of Joshu's cell phone, bringing one of Josuke's bubbles with it. The bubble then flies towards Tooru. The invisible bubble flies towards Tooru and pops inside of his abdomen, saving Yasuho from the calamity. Over the phone, Josuke instructs Yasuho to point her phone at Tooru once more until she realizes that Tooru ate the other Locacaca plant and is now walking towards her. Joshu attempts to stop Tooru when he starts sprinting but gets struck on the head by the house's rain gutter due to the calamity. Yasuho finally faces her phone at Tooru's direction and is hit by the invisible bubble. Meanwhile, Kaato strangely appears inside the house. He lies still on the ground as Kaato begins to pin down Tooru with her ability and use his body for an equivalent exchange with Tsurugi Higashikata who was hidden in her cards.
While Joshu is incapacitated, the exchange is successful with the help of Kaato's Space Trucking - Tooru completely disintegrates into the air and Tsurugi recovers, although Kaato is revealed to have been stabbed during when she crushed the branch due to Wonder of U's ability. With the family curse broken, the Higashikata family attend to Norisuke, who is in an incapacitated state, while an ambulance arrives in the estate. Joshu is taken away by the ambulance, still unconscious.
Epilogue
Days later, Joshu completely recovers, and the Higashikata family go to the Higashikata Fruit Parlor to order a cake as a celebration for Norisuke's discharge the next day. Josuke and Yasuho are later invited. While choosing a cake made by the Higashikata parlor, everyone breaks down into tears, including Daiya, Hato, Tsurugi, and Mitsuba. Tsurugi then insists Josuke to choose a cake. With the family reunited once again, Yasuho Hirose sheds a tear before exiting the room.
Relations
Famille
- Josuke Higashikata : Le frère adoptif de Joshu. Joshu déteste cordialement Josuke car dans sa tête, Josukes est un rival pour l'amour de Yasuho. Au début de l'histoire, il voit Josuke nu près de Yasuho et méprend la situation. Il attaque donc Josuke avec un caillou à la main, avec la ferme intention de le tuer. Josuke continue de ruiner indirectement la vie de Joshu quand Josuke est adopté au sein de la famille Higashikata, Norisuke donnant à Josuke la chambre de Joshu. Joshu en viendra à tolérer puis tout de même trouver Josuke sympathique. A la fin de l'histoire, Joshu semble accepter tacitement Josuke au sein de la famille. Par sa part, Josuke tient Joshu éloigné de lui, étant intrigué et agacé par Joshu qu'il trouve être un idiot.
- Norisuke Higashikata IV : Le père aimant de Joshu. Norisuke gâte Joshu, lui donnant de l'argent dès qu'il le demande et étant simplement déçu de Joshu quand celui-ci ne veut pas travailler dans l'entreprise familiale. Joshu abuse de la générosité de Norisuke, lui demandant de l'argent pour des choses frivoles comme acheter des produits dérivés d'une idol.[19]
- Jobin Higashikata : Joshu admire son grand frère et lui montre beaucoup de respect. Jobin est cependant un grand frère plutôt froid et moqueur envers Joshu, le dénigrant légèrement et étant agacé quand Joshu est incapable de comprendre ses références.
- Hato Higashikata : Joshu et Hato ont une rivalité frère-soeur bon enfant. Ont voit Joshu et Hato régulièrement ensemble en train de se disputer pour un rien, se lancer des piques, et se faire des farces mais toujours dans un esprit positif. Hato semble bien apprécier Joshu et la seule fois ou on la voit vraiment en colère contre est lui est lorsque Joshu se moque du petit copain de Hato, Tamaki Damo.
- Daiya Higashikata : La petite soeur de Joshu. Ils interagissent peu ou pas durant l'histoire, mais Daiya ressent tout de même une certaine communion avec Joshu, en tant que cadets de la famille Higashikata. Elle dit que c'est une tradition dans la famille de ne pas écouter les cadets.
- Kaato Higashikata : Joshu n'était pas assez grand pour se souvenir de sa mère avant qu'elle ait été arrêtée pour meurtre, et les efforts de Norisuke de faire oublier Kaato ont fait que Joshu n'a aucun attachement à Kaato. Lorsque celle-ci revient de prison et veut se présenter à ses enfants, Joshu est suspicieux et la rejette. Il essaie de l'humilier et utilise même son pouvoir pour la déshabiller afin de l'humilier au public. Furieuse, Kaato riposte en envoyant une chaise sur la mâchoire de Joshu avec son propre pouvoir.
Alliés
- Yasuho Hirose : Yasuho est l'amie d'enfance de Yasuho et il est très amoureux d'elle. Cependant, Yasuho elle est surtout agacée par l'insistence de Joshu pour avoir une relation et elle essaie de l'éviter du mieux qu'elle peut. Au contraire de son comportement habituel, Joshu protège Yasuho lorsque Jobin essaie de la tuer, puis essaie de protéger Yasuho contre Tooru. Joshu a tendance à s'imaginer des scénarios burlesques et à croire que le moindre de leurs interactions en font un couple. Par exemple, alors que Yasuho est sous le pouvoir de Paper Moon King, Joshu méprend toutes les phrases de Yasuho jusqu'à en croire qu'elle le désire. Ou encore quand Joshu effectue un échange équivalent avec elle, Joshu prend le processus comme une sorte d'union.
Ennemis
- Tooru : Joshu rencontre Tooru pour la première fois quand ce dernier attaque la Maison des Higashikata, malgré le fait qu'il soit l'ex-petit copain de Yasuho et aurait donc probablement été au courant de son existence. Comme Tooru s'attaque à Yasuho, Joshu la défend avec violence, mais son intervention n'est que peu utile face au pouvoir de Tooru.

Jeux Vidéos
All Star Battle (PS3)
Joshu apparait en tant que personnage non joueur dans le jeu vidéo All-Star Battle. Il est impliqué dans l'arène des Murs qui Voient pour la partie 8 en tant que stage hazard et dans la Situation Finish. Si l'un des combattants est mis à terre sur la zone d'indication de "danger", Yasuho Hirose recule d'effroi, ce qui fait apparaître Joshu qui court en traversant l'arène, assommant quiconque se trouve sur son chemin avec une pierre. Ensuite, on peut l'entendre discuter avec Yasuho en arrière-plan.
Au terme d'une situation finish, le perdant est assommé près de Yasuho, qui se met à crier. Joshu se met en colère, s'approche du personnage à terre et l'achève avec la pierre susmentionnée (de la même manière qu'il attaque Josuke lors de leur première rencontre au tout début de la partie 8).
Eyes of Heaven (PS3/PS4)
Joshu makes his first playable appearance in JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Eyes of Heaven and was confirmed for the game alongside Josuke (JoJolion), Narciso Anasui, and Enrico Pucci with C-Moon.
Due to Joshu's lack of combat experience, having only recently discovered his Stand at the time of the game's development and release, his skillset is somewhat limited compared to other characters. His inclusion might simply be a result of Josuke lacking a proper partner to team up and have a Special Dual Heat Attack with. However, while sporting a low amount of abilities and skills, Joshu remains a viable fighter regardless. Joshu also has the slowest base movement speed in the entire game, but certain conditions can increase it to the fastest as well.
- Style Action - What a stupid thing to say.: Joshu stops to make an irritating comment, bragging about his and Yasuho's relationship. This forces opponents within range to lock onto him and automatically unleash a Powerful Attack, and will also boost the Dual Heat Gauge by a considerable amount. Due to this effect, Joshu can easily counterattack if he guards or dodges his target's inevitable attack, and the ability is especially effective against opponents actively attacking his partner. However, Joshu himself is vulnerable upon activating the skill until he utters the first few words of the phrase, and his opponents will of course still land their attacks successfully if he does not defend in time.
- Whoa! I did that!: Joshu reaches his hand forward, and if he connects with an opponent, he will lift them up by their neck with one hand as metallic nuts fall from their body. He then punches them with his other hand and sends them flying, leaving them Panicked for a short period of time. While Panicked, opponents cannot use any of their skills, nor can they guard, altogether rendering them especially vulnerable. The effect will be lifted early if Joshu is hit by certain attacks or a DHA.
- The Screw: Joshu trips backwards onto the ground as Nut King Call advances forward with its arm outstretched. If NKC connects with an opponent, it will produce massive bolts that stick out from their bodies, paralyzing them and leaving them open to further attacks. Quickly moving the movement stick around can shorten the time bound.
- I did it! Me! Ahahahahaha!: Joshu begins hysterically running around at high speeds while holding himself. The skill's cooldown gauge then changes into a depleting timer; if Joshu successfully empties the gauge via his running, he will stop and laugh uncontrollably. This triggers multiple beneficial effects: Joshu gains a temporary boost to attack power and Dual Heat Gauge charge rate, all of his skills will be instantly taken off cooldown at that moment (including EX skills), and a Flash Cancel and Flash Burst is restored if they have been consumed. Joshu can interrupt his run with any action without canceling the skill; the timer's depletion will only slow and Joshu will resume running if no actions are taken afterward. However, if Joshu is hit by or blocks an attack, or initiates a Dual Combo or DHA, the skill will deactivate completely and the cooldown will begin from wherever the timer gauge leaves off.
- EX - The Screw: The skill activates quicker and Joshu is invincible until Nut King Call begins moving. NKC will move a slight distance further, extend its arm's reach, and deal more damage.
- EX - I did it! Me! Ahahahahaha!: Joshu runs at an even faster speed. The timer gauge will deplete at a considerably faster rate, and will also not slow down upon him taking action.
- Of note is that if Joshu has a Soul Succession active, the effects of the movement speed boosts are multiplicative, causing him to accelerate into a superhuman sprint. At his level of speed, he is able to traverse one end of any stage to the other in the few seconds the ability lasts, and he possesses the fastest running speed of any character in the game bar none as long as the skill is active. The speed increase is such that Joshu can even outpace most characters' Homing Dash, making it nigh impossible for any adversaries to catch him without the use of fast projectiles or traps.

- What an unbelievably crazy battle!: Joshu must Retire an opponent without losing a single health gauge. (800 Points)
Dual Heat Attacks
- Solo - Wait... I'm the one doing this! Yeaaaah!!: Joshu, sitting on the ground, realizes Nut King Call has started acting on its own. The opponent suddenly has nuts and bolts embedded into their body when NKC stands up. As the nuts begin automatically undoing themselves from their bolts, the opponent violently falls apart and is soon completely dismantled.
- With Josuke - We're friends, right?: Joshu and Josuke discuss their "friendship" status as Soft & Wet delivers a punch that downs the opponent. Joshu and Nut King Call hastily move in to finish them off, but fails to notice a bubble by Soft & Wet that steals the ground's friction, making him slip and spin out of control. Accelerating to high-speeds, Joshu is only stopped when he inevitably crashes into the downed opponent as Josuke humorously looks on.
Tournament
He is paired with Diavolo in the Eyes of Heaven Tournament, having been placed in the F Block series of battles to be incorporated into the main Tournament. They were eliminated in the first round by Bruno Bucciarati and Trish Una.
