On his attempt to run, Kira took a man hostage, and using Aya Tsuji's power exchanged his face with the man, leaving her with a bomb and with the man's identity.After managing to escape, Kira assumed the identity of the man, Kosaku Kawajiri, and infiltrated his family in order to hide himself. But he always purposefully got 3rd place in competitions, because he never liked to call attention. Crucially, Yoshikage is the closest homage to David Bowie in the series, specifically to the ‘Thomas Jerome Newton’ persona from the Berlin and The Man who fell on Earth period (’76 to ’80: The man who fell on Earth, 1976).

Reimi reveals her back wound to Kira, who finally recognizes her but wonders why she would reveal herself to him like that. Additionally, Kira's second power Sheer Heart Attack is named after Queen's third studio album of the same name, which featured said song as its first single.

Like to the T. He was also slightly obsessed with japanese culture in the mid 70's (its where he got his outfit ideas for the ziggy stardust/diamond dogs tour outfits, and probably aladdin sane but i haven't looked into that tour in a while) and he actually had quite a few songs about the japanese and chinese cultures so i'm sure that obsession/infatuation did not die as he got older.tl;dr i started watching/reading jojo because of the Bowie references and i need to think that he knew it existed too.what happened to those comments below you...I'm just sure there's a perfect reality somewhere in the multiverse where Bowie agreed to dub Kira for the DIU anime.Ask his son...looks like he regularly answers questions from fans.Jotaro was partly based on Clint Eastwood.TIL.
