“

Spaghetti Man–this mystery man–looks the same, no matter what year or location he's in. There are many sightings of him reported on the Internet, and quite a few articles treating him as an urban legend as well. However, I don't recommend searching for him on your own. There's a reason he's become such a well-known urban legend–every single person who came face-to-face with him ended up missing.

—Rohan Kishibe, Blackstar.

Spaghetti Man (スパゲッティ・マン, Supagetti Man) is the main antagonist of the short story Blackstar., that is part of the Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan: Short Story Collection.

It causes individuals to disappear, leaving behind their belongings, eerily distorted into twisted, spaghetti-like shapes. Contrary to what its name suggests, Spaghetti Man does not refer to a single entity but rather encompasses multiple phenomena that are theorized by the Speedwagon Foundation to be bait used by a higher dimensional creature to lure humans into another dimension.

Appearance

In reality, Spaghetti Man is the mouth of a wormhole known as a naked singularity. However, a gravity-warping illusion makes it take on a masculine human appearance in order to lure humans toward it. Each Spaghetti Man is cloaked in an unkempt suit paired with a crumpled hat. It has bushy eyebrows, protruding eyes, and a semi-open mouth resembling a faint smile. Its drooping face and features reminds Rohan Kishibe of the actor Benicio Del Toro. It doesn't look like an illusion, as it has shadows from the sun, and its body has a definite sense of mass to it. Underneath its blazer is an unbuttoned shirt, but rather than its chest having skin, there is a profoundly dark, gaping black hole in place of a heart.

In photographs, Spaghetti Man often blends within crowds, though paradoxically isolates itself through its direct, unsettling stare. Its intense gaze directed at the camera is as if it is directly staring at the viewer.

Spaghetti Man isn't visible to ordinary people unless they have a "sixth sense" or predisposition for seeing paranormal things.

Personality

Spaghetti Man is an eldritch entity who doesn't communicate directly, but its disconcerting presence is felt by those who encounter it. It has a sinister intent, as those who come into contact with it or become aware of its existence go missing, excluding Rohan who is its sole survivor. Once choosing a target, it persistently goes after them, appearing in every ordinary photo they take before eventually appearing in front of them in reality after a few days. It tends to make its victims disappear as soon as they tell someone else about it, or if someone investigates or pursues it like Chan or Rohan. When appearing in front of someone, it always stands still.

Abilities

Spaghetti Man is extremely powerful, being able to easily consume humans into wormholes. Rohan considers it to be a manifestation of misfortune, with its ability being more horrifying than any Stand or mystery he has come across. It acts automatically, appears anywhere in the world with unlimited range, and has numerous ways to hunt down its prey.
