DJ Professor K

DJ Professor K is the host of Jet Set Radio, from the game series Jet Set Radio. In his series, he plays his funky fresh beats and reports on turf wars happening in Japan, focusing on the protagonists of the series, the GG's.

Professor K is mostly notable for his run in the King for a Day tournaments, and his eventual crowning in King for Another Day.

Biography
16 years after the events of Jet Set Radio Future, DJ Professor K was sent a letter by a man named John Notwoodman. He asked the DJ is he wanted to participate in a tournament, to which he agreed to, to try and spread his funky fresh beats and get them revived. He even returned to his "hip" younger appearance. His source list comprised of compositions by or in the style of Hideki Naganuma. Unfortunately, he lost first round to Etika, getting #13 overall.

A few months later, he received another letter about another tournament, where he would receive a second chance at the crown. He added on all non-Sonic or Puyo Puyo games to his sources, with the latter being owned by fellow SEGA Rep Dr. Robotnik.

During the tournament, the professor gave pep talks to a lot of the contestants after their knocking to the Loser's Bracket or elimination, such as Mariya Takeuchi and Off the Hook (ft. Paruko). This built up a rivalry between him and Monokuma, who noted that K was the hope to his despair. They had similar beliefs but did different things with them.

The Professor had a good run, defeating later Final Four member MissingNo. and tough veterans Nintendo Power. He defeated the tough Dr. Piccolo and the equally funky Daft Punk (ft. Pharrell). In the Final Four he defeated Law & Disorder, telling Monokuma he always keeps promises. He later used the MF Like Button to uncrown Hypercam with Mariya. He then defeated Mariya in the Finals and became the King for Another Day. He returned to the channel on June 30th to host his takeover, staying for uploading all his rips and his 24+ hour livestream. He was seen on the SiIvaSummer All Star Festival banner, surfing in the waves.

RWBYGI Canon
DJ Professor K was originally going to appear in the "Journey to be King" arc, based on the events of the King for Another Day Tournament. He was Ruby's favorite while Weiss wasn't very fond of his music. Like in the real world, DJ Professor K would have won.

While making a minor appearance at Ruby and Weiss's wedding, his next major appearance would've been in the "JET! SET! RADIOOOOOOOO!" arc, based on his time taking over the channel. This was his last planned appearance.

Other
DJ Professor K would've been one of many characters in Eternity of Spirits.

In SiIvaRonpa: Psycho Killers with No Order, he is the Ultimate DJ. He would've become the protagonist after Phoenix Wright was falsely executed.

In Other Tourneys
Being a contestant in King for a Day and King for Another Day, Professor K wouldn't have contestant roles. His only major appearance is in Live for Another Day 2, as an Assist Trophy character, and also a special guest for Amigo. He appears ignorant to Monokuma's killing game, and similar to KfAD, does his best to cheer everyone up. He is referenced in Live for Another Day 1 in a letter to the finalists.

Personality
DJ Professor K has always been shown to be a positive motivating person, notable in his posts on the MOJO.

His biggest drive is the hope he spreads with his music. Even though he's very old, he knows the drive of his music keeps people cheery, so he keeps playing funky beats.
