Yoshiya "Joshua" Kiryu

Creation Template

Name: Neku Sakuraba

Name of Amigo: Yoshiya "Joshua" Kiryu

Appearence of Amigo:


Personality: Joshua is an extremely intelligent youth. He has a refined taste and knowledge for the world around him. Unfortunately, these traits are often overshadowed by his constant air of arrogance. He prefers to think and act by himself, always keeping his intentions mysterious. Joshua never, ever gets worked up and is always teasing when he is not sharing information. These snobby qualities always make him appear condescending and antagonistic- especially to Neku. Nevertheless, his long history with Hanekoma has ignited a bond of trust between the two. Despite his interpersonal issues, he remains a mature and wise person at heart underneath his attitude.

History with your Amigo: Yoshiya Kiryu (who states in-game that his parents call him Joshua) is the second partner Neku gains. He is a special player in that he is not dead, yet can see the UG. He seems to have known Neku before he came to the Underground as the flashbacks show (Joshua is running towards Neku with a gun in his hand and it appears that Neku is shot.) However, in the last flashback, it is shown that Joshua was not aiming for Neku, but for the second game master, Sho Minamimoto, who had followed Joshua to the RG in an attempt to kill him and become the Composer. Wounded, Minamimoto tries in desperation to shoot Joshua; however, Joshua's undiminished powers as the Composer enable him to halt the bullets in midair. Joshua then kills Neku as he had originally intended, enabling Neku to be his partner during the second Chapter.

At the end of the "Joshua" Chapter, he is shown to sacrifice himself to protect Neku from a level "i" flare attack. According to the secret reports written by Hanekoma, however, it is revealed that Joshua transported to a parallel universe just before receiving the blow of Minamimoto's attack. This universe is seen in the "Another day" chapter, where Joshua meets the "Tin Pin"-obsessed alternative versions of Neku, Shiki, and Beat.

At the end of the third week (Beat's week) Joshua appears in the final fight against the Conductor's final form, a huge five-headed dragon noise. After Neku defeats Kitaniji, Joshua reveals that he himself is the Composer. Also, in addition to not being killed by Minamimoto, Neku was never the Reapers' target. Joshua killed Neku so that Neku could be his proxy in his and Kitaniji's game to see if Shibuya would be destroyed or not. After Kitaniji is erased (due to having failed his mission and the timer running out) Joshua proposes one last “game” to Neku. Both of them have a pistol, and they both shoot on ten, with the survivor becoming the Composer. Neku does not fire a shot, and Joshua remains Composer. However, Joshua unexpectedly chooses to maintain Shibuya, as Neku and three other players (Shiki, Beat and Rhyme) meet in the RG in front of Hachiko in the end. It is revealed in the Secret Reports that this is because Joshua realized that if Neku, the "worst person in Shibuya" could change, then so could Shibuya.

When Neku, Beat, Rhyme, and Shiki meet at Hachiko, Neku wants to know where Joshua is despite their conflicting minds as well as the final conflict they had. He still doesn't forgive him, but he trusts him.

As a slight Easter egg, Joshua is also seen in Shiki Day 1, before the frog noise show up at Hachiko. He is likely observing Neku, his proxy in the game with the Conductor, from the RG.

Approved!
