Trivia / JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Eyes of Heaven

• Acting for Two:
  • Averted for Show Hayami, who reprises his role as Vanilla Ice from the anime adaptation, but does not play the character he previously voiced in All Star Battle, Enrico Pucci. The voice of Pucci was replaced by Joji Nakata.
  • An exaggerated version of this trope has Takehito Koyasu voicing Dio Brando, DIO, Diego, Diego from Another Universe and the game's original incarnation of Dio, meaning you can have a match consisting entirely of characters voiced by him.
• Author's Saving Throw: The developers said that there will be no paid DLC or Microtransactions, presumably in response to criticisms about those in the previous game. There will still be DLC, such as part 4 Jotaro, but you won't necessarily have to pay for it, as part 4 Jotaro is a day 1 bonus.
• Casting Gag: Joji Nakata has had experience playing malevolent priests before - in particular, as Kirei Kotomine. This is also not the first time when Daisuke Ono and Miyuki Sawashiro have voiced a father and daughter as they previously voiced Mamoru and Miyuki Akasaka in Higurashi: When They Cry.
• Cross-Dressing Voices: Unlike in their anime adaptations a few years later, several characters such as Koichi and Narancia were voiced by a woman, leading to a more high-pitched voice compared to their anime counterparts. They, like almost all the Part 4 and 5 characters, have been recasted for their anime adaptations. In Koichi's and Narancia's case, Romi Park and Yuko Sanpei were replaced by Yūki Kaji and Daiki Yamashita respectively.
• Dummied Out:
  • Many unused voice files for Jotaro suggest that his Stone Ocean incarnation would also have been playable alongside his Parts 3 and 4 versions. As it is, Part 6 Jotaro only appears in the game's ending.
  • Leone Abbacchio was originally going to be a playable character, and his Style would have been focused around using Moody Blues to record enemy actions and copy them. While they eventually cut him after deciding his playstyle was unworkable, a character model of him does appear for a brief moment in the ending alongside his living teammates, albeit a very unpolished one.
• The Other Darrin: Certain characters returning from All-Star Battle have had their game voice actors replaced by their anime voice actors, such as Kakyoin, Polnareff, Iggy, Hol Horse and Vanilla Ice. If there every was a sequel for this game, most characters from Part 4, 5, and 6 will very likely be replaced by their voice actors in the anime.
• What Could Have Been: An interview in an issue of Ultra Jump revealed:
  • There were going to be three different story modes, but it was parred down to a single one on the advice of Hirohiko Araki.
  • About 160 different characters were initially planned out, until it was eventually scaled down to the current roster of 53. Three of the ones mentioned that made it to concept stage were Tarkus, Bruford, and fan favorite Ringo Roadagain.
  • Datamined dialogue reveals part 6 Jotaro was going to be a playable character at some point in development. His intro lines are all recorded, complete with all the characters he could've interacted with having responses recorded as well. He was likely planned as DLC, but was removed when DLC plans fell through, and/or because he would've been the third Jotaro alt, with very few ways to make him play differently than his other two parts.
