I shall breathe my last while glorifying the spirit focused toward the future I inherited from my ancestors, the Zeppeli's spirit! A human spirit![2] (おれが最後にみせるのは代代受け継いだ 未来にたくすツェペリ魂だ! 人間の魂だ!)
Caesar Anthonio Zeppeli (シーザー・アントニオ・ツェペリ, Shīzā Antonio Tseperi) was confirmed for All-Star Battle R during the game's initial announcement trailer.[1]
His moveset is fundamentally the same as his from All-Star Battle, with a few tweaks being made to both balance the character and fit him into the overall gameplay changes that All-Star Battle R brought.
As Caesar's one and only voice actor, debuting in the Battle Tendency anime adaptation and later voicing Caesar again in All-Star Battle, Takuya Sato reprises his role in this game too. As with the majority of the game's roster, voicelines for Caesar were either added or re-recorded.
The player's Heart Heat Gauge continuously refills. The opponent's defense and attack power are increased.
