Lulu
Lulu (ルル, Ruru) is an antagonist featured in the ninth part of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure series, The JOJOLands.
She is a young girl affiliated with the HOWLER Company. Her Stand, Bags Groove, automatically targets anyone who investigates the original paper copies of HOWLER's land deeds.
Appearance
Lulu is a short girl with thick eyebrows. Her shoulder-length wavy hair is styled with a braided headband that wraps around her head. Her outfit is a sleeveless patchwork dress with multiple jagged pieces of fabric overlapping each other. She also wears dark studded wristbands and shoes.
Personality
Lulu has a playful and childlike demeanor, while also being very demanding, manipulative, and bossy. She shows enthusiastic expressions and persistently pleads for Bobby Jean to buy a "Hula NYAN Dancer" figure, trying to appeal to Bobby and the security guard with her insistence. She typically elongates her words, such as when she's begging for the figure or calling it cute. When the guard tells her the figure is no longer for sale, she shows that she is selfish and adamant by rudely dismissing and insulting his aesthetic sense before begging Bobby to buy the figure again.
Despite how Lulu looks and initially acts, she is pragmatic and quickly changes her attitude upon getting a nosebleed, realizing that her Stand is battling Stand users. She is observant and attentive, easily pointing out inconsistencies in the surveillance footage and discovering that it's fake. She also has an indifferent and cynical outlook on life, announcing that it doesn't matter to her whether they pursue the enemy group or let them go, as everyone would eventually die from an illness or accident either way.[1]
Abilities
Stand
Bags Groove is a colony Stand that activates automatically when anyone browses the original paper copies of HOWLER's land deeds. It can infiltrate the bodies of multiple victims at the same time and travel through their blood vessels. It causes internal injuries which lead to disease-like symptoms and conditions such as a pulmonary edema or cancer.
History
The JOJOLands
Lulu is with Bobby Jean in the security room at the Hawaii State Land Registry Office. She points to a cat figure on a shelf called a "Hula NYAN Dancer," laughing at its creepy movements but also calling it cute. She begs Bobby to buy it for her, but the security guard informs her that the figure can't be bought anywhere anymore. Despite this, she dismisses his explanation and insists on knowing where to buy it. When Lulu persistently whines for it, Bobby reveals that she isn't his child and he's just babysitting her. He offers the guard money for the figure. Although the guard offers it for free since he isn't allowed to take money, Bobby still places the money in his shirt pocket.
Suddenly, Lulu gets a nosebleed from her Stand being destroyed in Dragona's body and realizes there's no footage of the three "students" who wanted to see HOWLER's original paper deeds exiting the building. She points to a van behind the ambulance in the footage, but Bobby explains it's unrelated since the group arrived in a pickup truck. Suspicious, Lulu identifies Dragona, Usagi, and Charming Man in the footage near the van. Bobby insists they never entered the building, but the guard recognizes Usagi as the boy who spilled cup ramen earlier. Lulu notes Usagi's illness and his need to be carried by the others. Aware they're dealing with Stand users, she orders Bobby to check the traffic cameras.[1]
Relationships
- Bobby Jean: Lulu and Bobby are partners who work together when investigating the group who wanted to see he original paper copies of HOWLER's land deeds. Bobby claims to be her babysitter, but she actually bosses Bobby around. For example, she demands for him to purchase anything that catches her eye, like an out of stock toy[1] or a floral ornament that an old woman left behind.[2] Regardless, Bobby is shown to relent to this behaviour.[1]
