Killer Queen

“

Mon grand frère avait des bulles qui explosaient quand elles touchaient quelque chose...

”

—Kei Nijimura, JoJolion Chapter 17: The Lemon and the Tangerine

Killer Queen (キラークイーン, Kirā Kuīn) est le Stand de Yoshikage Kira, figurant dans la huitième partie de JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, JoJolion. Tout comme son homologue de la continuité originelle, Killer Queen est un Stand humanoïdes aux allures félines. Il peut faire exploser des objets et peut déployer Sheer Heart Attack, une bombe sur chenilles.

Apparence

Killer Queen is a humanoid Stand of similar appearance to its alternate counterpart. Its crown is flat, while two sharp, triangular shapes resembling a cat's ears stand on either side of the top of its head. Its eyes have cat-like vertical pupils in front of generally light-colored sclera. It has no nose. With thin lips, its mouth is perpetually closed.

It wears dark, studded, leather-like forearm-length gloves, mirrored in style by a garter belt-like band at its waist and ankle-height footwear. Its thumbs are additionally bandaged in white.

Its shoulders, the back of its hands, belt buckle, both sides of its ankles and the top of its feet all bear the emblem of a skull with ears resembling its own; in varying sizes and external decoration. One minor yet constant difference between the designs of Killer Queen and its Part 4 counterpart is that, while Part 4 Killer Queen bears two skull emblems at its belt buckle, Part 8 Killer Queen bears only one.

Pouvoirs

Not much is shown of Killer Queen's capabilities, but like its counterpart, it is a close range Stand which always stays close to its user Yoshikage and has above average fighting abilities.

Moreover it possesses power revolving around explosives and can deploy two types of bombs to fight, making it a powerful force in battle.

Bulles Explosives

As described by Kei Nijimura, Killer Queen's primary ability is to create bubbles that explode on contact.^[1]

These bubbles were described as floating in the air as projectiles, but are shown to also form inside a person's skin or an object if Killer Queen physically strikes them, having the target locally inflate and explode.^[2] The bubbles can presumably come from Kira’s hand.

Debut: JoJolion Chapter 50: Vitamin C and Killer Queen, Part 1

Killer Queen can summon several miniature, treaded bombs. Unlike the original Sheer Heart Attack, Kira can remotely control them with precision. Kira can also choose how voluminous the bombs are, able to make them small enough to travel through a person's bloodstream^[3] or almost as large as someone's head.^[4] The power of the blast is dependent on their size, demonstrated by Sheer Heart Attack's ability to clear a blood clot from a young Josefumi Kujo as well as explode an entire pier.^[4] The Sheer Heart Attacks shown do not have noses like their counterpart and resemble its beaten down form.
