Keicho Nijimura is a major antagonist in JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Diamond is Unbreakable.

He is the older brother of Okuyasu Nijimura, and one of the owners of bow and arrow, being responsible for Angelo, Akira and many other villains in Morioh activate their stand. He wields the Stand known as Bad Company.

He was voiced by Tomoyuki Shimura and Mariko Higashiuchi in Japanese (as an adult and a child respectively), and by Jason Marnocha (who also played Orochi in One-Punch Man and the Demon King in The Seven Deadly Sins) and Morgan Berry in English (again, as an adult and a child respectively).

His Evil Ranking

His Villainous Deeds

• After he obtained the stand arrow, Keicho shot multiple people (including Anjuro Katagiri, Yukako Yamagishi, Rohan Kishibe, Tamami Kobayashi, Toshikazu Hazamada, and Akira Otoishi) to make them gain stands. Thus he indirectly freed Anjuro from the prison and is responsible for the crimes Anjuro did with his stand.
• In order to give Koichi a stand, Keicho attacked him by shooting his neck with the arrow, which would have killed Koichi if Josuke didn’t heal him.
• During the fight with Josuke, Keicho accidentally shot Okuyasu multiple times with Bad Company and nearly killed him, but Keicho didn’t feel any remorse for it, instead just calling him an idiot.
• After Josuke discovered the deformed Mansaku Nijimura, Keicho's father, Keicho abuses and kept attacking him for trying to re-fix the picture of his family.

Why Doesn't He Stand Out?

• He fails the heinous standard to other villains like Anjuro Katagiri and Yoshikage Kira, who did far worse than him.
  • Although it is mentioned that he killed many people who is incapable of activating stand, these crimes are all off-screen and aren't given much depth, as we don't know the number and the details of his kills.
• He is genuinely tragic, because he and Okuyasu was abused by their father, Mansaku Nijimura. And the fate that Mansasu turned into a monster became a burden to the brothers, which is why Keicho decided to use the arrow to end his eternal torment.
• He truly cares about his brother Okuyasu Nijimura. When he was younger, he was shown to be very protective of his younger brother while holding his abusive father in contempt.
• He redeemed himself by sacrificing himself to save his brother from Red Hot Chili Pepper's attack, an act that Okuyasu and Josuke acknowledge as a sign of his care.

Trivia

• His movie counterpart is Near Pure Evil for his crimes of killing stand-incapable people is explicitly shown. His tragic background is never mentioned in the movie, and he doesn't redeem himself in the end.
