The Kawajiri Residence is a recurring location featured in the fourth part of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure series, Diamond is Unbreakable. It is a home situated in the Japanese town of Morioh.

After Yoshikage Kira steals the identity of Kosaku Kawajiri to evade capture, he is forced to move into this house and assimilate into his new identity.

Description

Located in the suburbs of Morioh, the Kawajiri residence is a two-story home. While not being visibly in disrepair, Shinobu Kawajiri considers the home to be cheap and in poor condition.[1] The monthly rent of the home is ¥130,000[2], and according to the landlord, pets are forbidden as per the lease.[3] At some point, Hayato Kawajiri secretly installed surveillance cameras which he uses to spy on his parents.[4] When threatened by Kira after witnessing and filming the murders of Minako Okura and Satoru Nakae, Hayato claims the tapes from those cameras aren't kept in the Kawajiri residence, but somewhere where they would definitely be found should something happen to him.[5]

The home's rooms include a foyer, a living room, a kitchen, at least 2 bedrooms, a bathroom, a basement, and an attic. The backyard, which is also accessible, features a variety of flora including several flowering shrubs and cacti.

Yoshikage Kira's New Situation

After adopting the identity of Kosaku Kawajiri, Kira arrives at the Kawajiri home, and struggles to open the door to his new home for the first time. Upon hearing the sound of his keys, Shinobu begins having derisive thoughts about her husband, lamenting her loveless marriage to him. As an act of spite, she lies about being to busy to cook, and leaves him an uncooked pack of instant noodles. Expecting him to spinelessly eat it, she's surprised when he proceeds to cook a meal for the both of them.

The surprises surrounding her husband continue into the next day. While going to yell at her husband for leaving their cat out overnight, she notices him shaving with a safety razor instead of his electric razor, despite the former giving him razor burn. When the landlord arrives to collect the past two months of rent, and she asks him to collect ¥100,000 they have in a safe, she notices his reluctance to open the safe. When Kira steals ¥520,000 yen from the landlord's bag and gives it right back to him as payment for the prior two and following two months, she is able to immediately deduce what happened, despite not knowing exactly how. Despite believing the behavior to be reprehensible, Shinobu finds this behavior romantic, and begins to fall in love with the man she believes is her husband.

As the summer season arrives in Morioh, Kira struggles to suppress his murderous urges. Shinobu brings him tea, and after waiting for him to reciprocate, begins to change for the night. Seeing this, Kira loses his restraint and attempts to strangle her, but accidentally startles her. While he apologizes, she mistakes his actions as a sexual gesture, and one again realize her revitalized feelings for him. Unbeknownst to the two, Hayato is in his room monitoring their actions through a security camera. He finds it unusual that the two are behaving romantically, and is intrigued by his father's recent actions.
