To put it flatly at lot of these additions are meant for Arc System Works rather than Daisuke specifically. Also, tropes are not suppose to apply to a creator themselves, which means Eighties Hair would basically disqualify it.

An [[UrbanLegendOfZelda often-peddled myth]] is that he worked for Creator/{{SNK}}, and was one of the main designers and programmers for ''VideoGame/TheLastBlade'' series (due to a designer credited as "Daisuke"). However, Ishiwatari-san was already working for Arc System works as a designer on ''Exector'' [[http://www.mobygames.com/developer/sheet/view/developerId,202591/ by 1995.]]
When the rights to ''Guilty Gear'' were returned to Arc System Works, Ishiwatari announced that he was working on a new ''Guilty Gear'' game, ''Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN-'', which was eventually released in 2014. The ''Xrd'' series was the start of a new breed of fighting game thanks to its innovative [[TwoAndAHalfD 2.5D]] style that managed to nail the look and style of a 2D sprite-based anime fighter despite being made with 3D graphics. Arc System Works has since gone on to develop and co-develop respectively ''VideoGame/DragonballFighterz'' and ''VideoGame/GranblueFantasyVersus'', both games using the distinct 2.5D anime style codified by ''Guilty Gear Xrd''.
At EVO 2018, Ishiwatari announced that the next title in the ''Guilty Gear'' series was in development, and formally announced ''[[WorkingTitle "New Guilty Gear"]]'' at EVO 2019. The game's final title would be revealed in November 2019 as ''Guilty Gear -STRIVE-''. ''-STRIVE-'' seeks to reinvent the wheel when it comes to ''Guilty Gear'', rebuilding the series from the ground up in terms of gameplay while also advancing the 2.5D style of ''Xrd'' into a more fluid, cinematic style. ''Guilty Gear -STRIVE-'' released on June 11, 2021.

!!Tropes associated with Daisuke Ishiwatari and his music:
* EightiesHair: As the page image shows, Ishiwatari possesses a wild head of hair befitting a Japanese heavy metal musician such as himself. In recent years, such as at EVO 2019, he has been appearing with a shorter haircut, though he still likes to grow it out from time to time.
* ScrewedByTheLawyers: Although Arc System Works developed the series, their publisher at the time Sammy Corporation owned the Guilty Gear IP. When Sammy merged with Sega, the rights to ''Guilty Gear'' transferred to Sega Sammy Holdings. Despite this, Arc System Works still managed to self-publish ''Guilty Gear XX Accent Core'' and ''Guilty Gear 2: Overture'', although ''Overture'' lacked the majority of the previous game cast, presumably due to these legal issues. In 2008, Arc System Works debuted the ''Franchise/BlazBlue'' franchise to fill the fighting game void left by ''Guilty Gear'''s absence. ''[=BlazBlue=]'' was very similar gameplay wise to ''Guilty Gear'', albeit different enough to stand on its own. Arc System Works would purchase the rights to ''Guilty Gear'' from Sega Sammy Holdings in 2011, and Ishiwatari soon afterward began development on what would become ''Guilty Gear Xrd''.
* VocalEvolution: The first time vocals were given to his work was in the 2001 album trilogy ''Guilty Gear X: Rising Force of Gear Image'' by Hiroshi Kitadani of the band Lapis Lazuli. Said vocals ranged from dreamlike, soothing singing to a bit of swagger. In 2007, ''Guilty Gear 2: Overture'' contained the first vocal character theme in an Arc System Works game, Raven's theme "Worthless as the Sun Above Clouds" sung by Junya C. Motomura, another Arc System Works employee. Motomura used a [[GutturalGrowler growling death metal voice]] for the song. Motomura would also sing for "Black Onslaught" in 2008's ''VideoGame/BlazBlueCalamityTrigger''. Since ''Guilty Gear Vastedge XT'' and ''Xrd'', Ishiwatari's vocal songs are sung by Naoki Hashimoto from the Japanese thrash metal band OUTRAGE, who uses his signature masculine, accented growl. Hashimoto would later return to sing the character themes for ''Guilty Gear -STRIVE-'', as well as on "Surrogate Life" for ''VideoGame/{{CHUNITHM}} CRYSTAL''.

In 2008, Arc System Works debuted the ''Franchise/BlazBlue'' franchise to fill the fighting game void left by ''Guilty Gear'''s absence. ''[=BlazBlue=]'' was very similar gameplay wise to ''Guilty Gear'', albeit different enough to stand on its own. Arc System Works would purchase the rights to ''Guilty Gear'' from Sega Sammy Holdings in 2011, and Daisuke soon afterward began development on what would become ''Guilty Gear Xrd''.
* VocalEvolution: The first time vocals were given to his work was in the 2001 album trilogy ''Guilty Gear X: Rising Force of Gear Image'' by Hiroshi Kitadani of the band ''Lapis Lazuli''. Said vocals ranged from dreamlike, soothing singing to a bit of swagger. In 2007, ''VideoGame/{{Guilty Gear}} 2: Overture'' contained the first vocal character theme in an Arc System Works game, Raven's theme ''Worthless As The Sun Above Clouds'' sung by Junya C. Motomura, another Arc System Works employee. Motomura used a [[GutturalGrowler growling death metal voice]] for the song. Motomura would also sing for ''Black Onslaught'' in 2008's ''VideoGame/{{BlazBlue}}: Calamity Trigger''. Since ''Guilty Gear Xrd'', Ishiwatari's vocal songs are sung by Naoki Hashimoto from the Japanese thrash metal band OUTRAGE, who uses his signature masculine, accented growl. Hashimoto would later return to sing the character themes for ''Guilty Gear -STRIVE-'', as well as on ''Surrogate Life'' for ''VideoGame/{{CHUNITHM}} CRYSTAL''.

Ishiwatari didn\'t do much, if any, programming on any Guilty Gear games; nor has he done any character select art for the Blaz Blue games, where his only role was composing the music. He also did none of the remixes in Chronophantasma; Yuhki did all of them himself while Ishiwatari worked on the new tracks.

He also provided the voice of Freed in ''VideoGame/BattleFantasia'', another ArcSystemWorks project.
He also provided the soundtrack to ''VideoGame/HardCorpsUprising'', and it is still every bit as eargasmic as the aforementioned soundtracks, if not moreso.
A little known fact: he used to work for a little company called {{SNK}}, and was one of the main designers and programmers for ''VideoGame/TheLastBlade'' series. The gameplay mechanics of ''The Last Blade'' would later be paid tribute to in the form of [[VideoGame/BlazBlue Hakumen]].
With the recent news of the rights to ''Guilty Gear'' being returned, Daisuke has announced that he is finally working on a new one, but it is still in the planning stages. He will also be remixing his already amazing musical works for the third ''[=BlazBlue=]'' game: ''[[VideoGame/BlazBlueChronoPhantasma Chronophantasma]]'', with the assistance of Music/{{Galneryus}} keyboardist Yuhki.
