Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da
Obladi Oblada (オブラディ・オブラダ, Oburadi Oburada) est un antagoniste tertiaire figurant dans la huitième partie de JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, JoJolion.
Obladi Oblada appartient à une espèce d'Organisme-rocher à la physiologie unique évoquant la tique. Wonder of U le déploie durant le combat final pour se protéger contre Josuke.
Apparence
Each Obladi Oblada takes on the appearance of a small, flat, round disc, resembling a cookie, with six stubs protruding from its edges. It visually has a four-toed paw print on its back. When duplicated, the bodies seem to link together via their stubs. Akefu calls Obladi Oblada an insect, but also notes that its species aren't technically insects, as they lack a three-segmented body or jointed legs.[1]
Personnalité
Obladi Oblada is a parasitic Rock Organism, as it feasts on the blood and bodily fluids of other organisms. It is shown to be virtually motionless, moving only whenever attacking or being attacked.[1][2] It is shown to protect its master, Wonder of U,[1] and it can be inferred that it is subservient to Tooru as well. Obladi Oblada's species target any sort of animal from above or below.
Obladi Oblada is afraid of water, as it prefers to live on dry areas[1] and is shown to shriek whenever it's submerged underwater.[2] As a Rock Organism, it also hates storms and rising waters.[3]
Pouvoirs
Despite its small size, the organism is shown to be relatively strong enough to deflect Soft & Wet: Go Beyond's bubbles.
Parasitisme
Obladi Oblada can latch itself onto its victims, like a tick, via an extremely sticky substance that is secreted from its underside. This is effective in order for the Rock Organism to burrow into the victim's skin and absorb their essence. In the wilderness, this creature inhabits a cliff and jumps down on other animals passing beneath it. Once latched, it sucks the body fluids and blood of its victim.[3]
Reproduction
Obladi Oblada is capable of spawning copies of itself at a rapid pace from its victim's blood,[3] to the point of overwhelming its victim within seconds. Attempting to attack or pull off one of the pads spawns more of its bodies, proving any attack against it seemingly futile. When the body multiplies, its copies form out of one of its stubs.
Histoire
Passé
Obladi Oblada originally lived on a dry, sloped cliff.[1] It was acquired by Tooru and the Locacaca Organization at some point.
JoJolion
Wonder of U keeps the Rock Insect attached to its cane.[1] While evacuating as Josuke shoots a bubble at it with his finger, Wonder of U releases Obladi Oblada to stop him.
Obladi Oblada deflects the incoming bubble and latches itself onto Josuke's hand, eating at his flesh. Josuke tries to pry the insect off, but to no avail; the organism clings on and spawns duplicates of itself all over Josuke's arm. He tries shooting at the Rock Insect, but Obladi Oblada again duplicates itself, swarming him until it completely covers his body. He then tries to fire one last shot at Wonder of U, but Obladi Oblada spawns some duplicates over his finger, deflecting the bubble. Losing energy as Obladi Oblada continues devouring him, Josuke eventually collapses.
However, Josuke manages to hit Tooru with an invisible bubble, which helps decrease the severity of what Obladi Oblada is inflicting on Josuke. He manages to stand up and after quickly consulting a map, finds the shower room of the hospital and dives into a pool, which causes the Rock Insects to drown. They shriek and their corpses surface as they detach from his body.
