Alongside the rest of the ASB roster, Fugo returns as part of the base roster for All-Star Battle R. His model's base color and hair have been changed to depict his anime appearance.
His gameplay has remained the same from the original.
Replacing Fugo's previous voice actor Hisafumi Oda now is Junya Enoki, who voices him since the anime. Enoki also replaces Hisao Egawa as Purple Haze. Because of this, and like the majority of the roster, his voice clips were either added or re-recorded.
During a fight, Fugo can use several different attacks that were featured in both Vento Aureo as well as Purple Haze Feedback.
Command List
Expand/Collapse All
Style/Specials/Etc. (スタイル/特殊技/その他)
Stand On/Off
ON GROUND
Fugo can summon or dismiss Purple Haze / Purple Haze Distortion, altering his available abilities.
Screw off!
+ NORMAL ON GROUND
Fugo lunges forward in a shoulder tackle. A command normal that can chain into Fugo's skills. (Comboable)
This display of my powers will be the last thing you ever see!
+ STAND ON GROUND
Purple Haze winds up and delivers a downwards punch while moving forward, bouncing the opponent off the ground. A command normal that can chain into Fugo's skills. (Comboable)
Homicidal Virus
Passive
Exclusive to Fugo is a Capsule Icon that displays how many of Purple Haze's six bulbs/capsules are available. Certain attacks will release Purple Haze's Homicidal Virus, an unblockable purple cloud that inflicts gradual damage over time for a set period, with a character's health gauge turning a purple color to signify the infection. However, Fugo may suffer from its effects if he comes into contact as well. The capsules may only reload after Fugo uses his HHA, GHA, or at the start of a new round.
Purple Haze Distortion
+ 3 ATK Buttons ON GROUND
(<20% health)
When low on health, Fugo can evolve Purple Haze into Purple Haze Distortion without needing to spend Heart Heat executing his GHA. He calls out for Distortion as he grits his teeth and Purple Haze suddenly transforms. Distortion is permanent and will remain with Fugo for the rest of the match. Appearance-wise, Purple Haze Distortion loses its purple irides, back spikes, cape, codpiece, knee and elbow pads, and boots. As Distortion, the performance of Fugo's skills is enhanced, primarily in Stand ON. He also takes greatly reduced damage from the Homicidal Virus, while his opponent inversely takes much more total damage at a faster rate. Fugo's Capsules are completely reloaded upon evolving his Stand into Distortion.
Skills [Stand Off] (コマンド技)
Homicidal Virus Capsule
(During ☆ or ◇ skill) + //ON GROUND TRAP
Any skill marked with a star (☆) (Normal) or diamond (◇) (Stand) allows Purple Haze to break a single capsule open and release the Homicidal Virus during the attack.
Hit them! [☆]
+ //ON GROUND
Fugo summons Purple Haze to fly a distance forward and deliver a strong hook. A fast, mid-ranged attack. (Flash Cancel comboable) With Purple Haze Distortion, this skill's damage is increased.
=Numbskull!
+ //ON GROUND
Wielding a fork, Fugo suddenly stabs at face-height. If it connects, he follows up by grabbing the opponent by the neck with his other hand and slamming them into the ground hard enough for them to bounce, leaving them knocked down directly in front him.
Friend or foe!
+ //ON GROUND WHEN DOWNED
Purple Haze quickly punches the ground, hitting the opponent even when downed and causing a ground bounce if they are not already downed; The attack will automatically break open a Capsule if one is available and release the Homicidal Virus, although contact for Fugo himself is unavoidable. (Comboable) With Purple Haze Distortion, this skill's damage is increased.

(During ☆ or ◇ skill) + //ON GROUND TRAP
Any skill marked with a star (☆) (Normal) or diamond (◇) (Stand) allows Purple Haze to break a single capsule open and release the Homicidal Virus during the attack.
Fugo's Violent Side [◇]
+ //ON GROUND
Purple Haze unleashes a wild barrage of punches, sending the opponent flying a short distance upon the final hit. This attack is a Stand Rush skill that Fugo can disconnect from near the end of the rush to act freely. With Purple Haze Distortion, the number of punches thrown and total damage dealt is increased. (Flash Cancel comboable)
Got You!
+ //ON GROUND
A command Throw. Purple Haze shifts forward and reaches its arm out. If it connects, Purple Haze will grab the opponent by the neck and punch them in the face, before throwing them up into the air and wildly pummeling them. The attack button inputted determines the distance Purple Haze travels. With Purple Haze Distortion, the number of punches delivered nearly doubles and total damage dealt is increased.
Throw (投げ技)
You messing with me?!
2 ATK buttons at close range or ON GROUND
Purple Haze knocks the opponent down with an overhead punch as Fugo relentlessly kicks them.
Heart Heat Attack / Great Heat Attack (ＨＨＡ / ＧＨＡ)
Attack like an explosion... and retreat like a storm!
+ 2 ATK Buttons ON GROUND
Purple Haze flies out in a tempestuous flurry of punches, before delivering a final straight punch that breaks open a Capsule and releases the Homicidal Virus. Fugo himself states that Purple Haze attacks like it's about to explode, and retreats like a storm. This HHA will restore up to 3 Capsules on activation (the Capsule broken during the attack itself is not consumed).
Resolute Eyes
+ 3 ATK Buttons, or ON GROUND
Facing away from his opponent, Fugo claims that he's made a decision worth betting everything on, before he turns around and reveals a Capsule between his teeth. He forcefully bites down to crush the Capsule and blows the Homicidal Virus cloud forward. If they are hit, the opponent will cover their face and scream in agony as they begin rapidly melting from the Virus; A camera shot of their skin breaking down and dissolving is shown. Purple Haze Distortion, releasing all of its rage, begins to violently beat them, spreading the Virus into their system even more. The Stand finishes the attack by unleashing a spinning punch that sends the opponent flying as they're completely eradicated. If Purple Haze has not already evolved into Purple Haze Distortion, executing this GHA will automatically do so, regardless if the attack successfully connects or not. This GHA also completely reloads Fugo's Capsules.
Of note is that Fugo's use of a Capsule between his teeth to unleash the viral attack references his first demonstration of Distortion's power during his final battle against Massimo Volpe in Purple Haze Feedback, while Distortion's violent follow-up assault is in reference to the battle with Illuso at the same time. Along with Funny Valentine's GHA, Fugo's is the only special move to alter the contrast of the screen (resulting in a more black and white combination of colors to add more intensity to the special, and obscure the sight of his opponent dissolving).
