Controversy
- Main article:
Shueisha Apology
DIO reading the Quran
Mosque removed
In May 2008, both Studio A.P.P.P. and Shueisha halted OVA/manga shipments of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure after a complaint had been launched against them from Egyptian Islamic fundamentalists, after noticing a scene in the OVAs that had the villain, DIO, reading a book depicting pages from the Qur’an. This recall affected the English-language release of the manga as well, causing VIZ Media and Shueisha to cease publication for a year. Even though the manga did not feature that specific scene, Shueisha had Araki redraw scenes that depicted characters fighting on top of, and destroying, mosques. Viz resumed publication a year later, with the eleventh volume being published on April 7, 2009, though distribution of the OVA had been permanently cancelled.
The controversy was such that the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs addressed the issue in an official report about this incident.
3 Anime: Music
The OVA’s sound direction isn’t bad by any means, but the anime’s soundtrack is just so good. The Stardust Crusaders soundtrack has this jazzy feel that really captures the aesthetic of the series. Both Last Train Home and Walk Like an Egyptian are ending themes on par with Roundabout from the first season.
The main theme itself does a great job at building itself up before bursting into a medley that just screams “Star Platinum.” Stardust Crusaders also has two fantastic openings. End of the WORLD is a fantastic song to close out the first three Parts on. That all the previous opening singers came back for the song is a huge plus.

JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure (2012)
Just a Note, JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure(2012) consists of 2 parts.
JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure Part 1: Phantom Blood (Episode 1 to 9)
An adaptation of the original five volume arc of the popular JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure manga, covering the Phantom Blood chapters.
Jonathan Joestar is an aristocratic boy whose life is suddenly turned upside down by a mysterious new boy who arrives, Dio Brando.
Dio has a connection to his father, and over time, a rivalry forms as Dio becomes obsessed with a mysterious, ancient, and mystical stone mask that Jonathan’s father keeps.
JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure Part 2: Battle Tendency (Episode 10 to 26)
The story opens in Mexico as Speedwagon arrives to Straizo, both aging friends to the late Jonathan Joestar, at the report of new evidence related to the Stone Mask which transformed Jonathan’s adoptive brother Dio into a near-immortal vampire nearly half a century ago.
Suddenly, Straizo kills Speedwagon’s associates before badly injuring the man himself.
Fascinated by the youthfulness and vigor the Stone Mask granted unto Dio, Straizo uses his comrades’ blood to activate the mask and transform into a vampire. Straizo makes his exit, leaving Speedwagon for dead.
JoJo Watch Order: JoJo Part 6 Stone Ocean
So going forward after Golden Wind the JoJo Watch order is very simple. All we have to do is wait for JoJo Part 6 Stone Ocean to release. It has already been announced that the adaptation is happening. Jojo Part 6 Stone Ocean was released in 2022 by David Production.
About Jojo Part 6: Stone Ocean
The narrative of Jotaro Kujo’s little girl, Jolyne Kujo. Set close to Port St. Lucie, Florida, she is outlined for homicide and winds up in the Green Dolphin Street Prison. She is given a special necklace acquired from her dad, which cuts her hand and opens her Stand capacity, Stone Free, which permits her to disentangle her body into a living string. The string can frame a humanoid Stand within two meters of her body and can expand further as a string. In the jail, she before long becomes uncomfortable partners with individual convicts and Stand clients Hermes (Kiss) and Guess (Goo Dolls).

9 Anime: Better Represents Modern JoJo
Stardust Crusaders is a very masculinely charged series. The characters are the epitome of manliness and the manga showcases that rather consistently. As does the anime, but only to an extent. Stardust Crusaders features a more rigid art style than either the first season or later adaptations, but it’s not quite as extreme as the manga.
Rather, Stardust Crusaders’ anime aesthetic feels like a mix of Hiraki’s Steel Ball Run era art and early JoJo. Part 3 also just resembles modern anime for the most part. The manga, on the other hand, very much feels its age, making it potentially difficult for some fans to go back to.

Персонажи[править]
Джотаро Куджо — главный герой, GAR и крутой козёл. Хамит всем направо и налево, часто демонстративно пренебрегает чувствами окружающих, бывает вспыльчив, на чем его иногда ловят злодеи, однако может собрать волю в кулак и проявить прямо-таки нечеловеческую выдержку. Несмотря на весь свой козлизм, где-то в глубине души скрывает привязанность к матери и своим друзьям. И не скажешь, что у него и у Себастьяна один и тот же сэйю.
Джозеф Джостар — главный герой предыдущей части Жожи и дедушка Джотаро. Несмотря на то, что его возраст уже приближается к семидесяти годам, он всё ещё силен, ловок и крепок телом, а также сохранил остроту ума и бодрость духа, в общем, крутой дедуля (хотя все-таки он уже не совсем тот, кем был в годы молодости). Также, невзирая на года, не утратил чувство юмора и склонность к остротам. Отправился вместе с внуком на сражение против Дио, потому что счел это долгом семьи Джостар, а также потому, что его дочь (мать Джотаро) заимела стенд, с которым не смогла справиться из за психологической слабости.
Жан-Пьер Польнарефф — один из группы Джотаро, присоединяется к ней позже всех, не считая Игги. Изначально хотел просто отомстить за убитую приспешником Дио сестру, но позже, после , понимает, что слишком сильно привязался к членам группы и должен им помочь. Сам, на первый взгляд, представляет из себя типичного пустоголового красавчика, служащего для разрядки смехом. Учитывая это, а также то, что больше него экранного времени только у Джотаро, из Польнареффа выходит неплохой кандидат на роль презренного Джа-Джа, однако он им ни в коем случае не является. При всей своей карикатурности, Польнарефф все-таки самый «живой» из всех персонажей, а также прошедший наибольший путь личностного роста (от гордого одиночки до преданного друга).
Нориаки Какьёин — скромный и учтивый школьник, по характеру представляет собой полную противоположность Джотаро. Изначально был подчинен Дио, но был спасен Джотаро, и Какьёин из благодарности, а также из-за того, что впервые в своей жизни встретил еще кого-то обладающего стендом, присоединяется к группе. На протяжении сериала становится более решительным и уверенным в себе.
Мохаммед Абдул — суровый обладатель стенда родом откуда-то из Северной Африки. Именно он объяснил Джозефу сущность стендов и рассказал о появлении Дио. Абдул также немного слышал о некоторых приспешниках Дио, что несколько раз помогало команде выйти из затруднительных ситуаций. Несмотря на важную роль в завязке сюжета, наименее раскрытый персонаж из группы.
Игги — бродячий пес-обладатель стенда, пойманный в Нью-Йорке Джозефом и Абдулом и доставленный в Египет Фондом Спидвагона. Умеет говорить с помощью стенда, но редко этим пользуется. Первоначально не имел никакой мотивации сражаться, предпочитал отсиживаться в сторонке, а в перерывах между драками действовать команде на нервы, но уже под самый занавес проникся командным духом.
https://youtube.com/watch?v=QCw7ysE—5Q%3F
()
Дио за 21 секунду.
Дио Брандо — главгад, бессмертный вампир, человек-мем и просто великолепный мерзавец. Хотя и утратил за время сидения на дне океана большую часть вампирских способностей, все равно остается самым опасным противником для квинтета героев
Обладает стендом, сила которого представляет собой секрет невероятной важности, за сохранение его в тайне приспешники Дио без колебаний расставались с собственными жизнями, однако так вышло, что среднему зрителю он известен еще до просмотра первой серии. Дио, за счет дизайна и игры сэйю в аниме, аномально харизматичен — умудряется выглядеть страшно даже в желтом костюме с сердечками и в туфлях на каблуках
При всем вышесказанном, на протяжении пятидесяти серий по большей части ничего не делает, а только сидит в своем особняке сначала в Асуане, а позже в Каире, грозно символизируя. Меметичные фразы:
- «ZA WARUDO»: Дио может остановить время и без пафосного выкрикивания имени своего стенда, но выходило бы не так эпично. Сейчас считается, что любой персонаж, способный остановить время, должен перед этим прокричать данную фразу.
- «WRYYYYY»: вампирский боевой клич, который, однако, в этой части использовал только Дио.
- «MUDAMUDAMUDAMUDA!»: еще один боевой клич, используется непосредственно во время мордобоя.
- «RODA RORA DA!»: с этими словами Дио уронил на Джотаро непонятно откуда взявшийся дорожный каток. Внезапность и карикатурная эпичность этого момента не могла не запомниться публике.
2 OVA: Action
With good animation naturally comes good action. Sometimes. In the case of the Stardust Crusaders OVA, it’s absolutely the case. Pretty much every single fight is worth watching. There are some standouts (again, DIO’s World is the one to watch,) but there isn’t a single weak fight in the OVA.
Some details are changed around from the manga, like Polnareff’s recruitment, but the fights always justify the changes to some degree. The 1993 OVA is far better crafted than some fans give it credit for. It isn’t randomly cutting things, it’s making deliberate changes to help bolster the action on screen.
What to do if Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure is unavailable in your region?
A lot of anime are geo-blocked for several countries. If the anime isn’t available on any streaming website in your area, then you can use a VPN to bypass the geo-block.

The important thing is that Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure is present on Netflix, Crunchyroll, Funimation, Hulu, and many other streaming websites’ catalogs, so set your VPN to a suitable location to access the anime from anywhere.
5 Anime: Fleshed Out Story
Although Stardust Crusaders does outstay its welcome as an anime, it does at least try to use its time wisely. Much extra time is spent fleshing out characters, themes, and just the story itself. It feels like the characters are embarking on a long journey with the audience along for the ride. This also helps make up for a general lack of development for Avdol and Kakyoin.
Little moments are also added in to explain where the Runaway Girl went along with adding in some more leisure moments for the main cast, helping sell their bond as a group. If nothing else, all this extra screen time helps make the last set of deaths all the more impactful.;
JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure Season 1 (Part 2: Battle Tendency)
tells the story of Jonathan’s grandson, Joseph Joestar in 1939. Joseph involves in the battle against the ancient vampires, Pillar Men to save the world.
This is the second season that you need to watch to follow JoJo Watch Order.
About Jojo Part 2: Battle Tendency

JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure Part 4: Diamond is Unbreakable
The year is 1999. Morioh, a normally quiet and peaceful town, has recently become a hotbed of strange activity. Joutarou Kuujou, now a marine biologist, heads to the mysterious town to meet Jousuke Higashikata.
While the two may seem like strangers at first, Jousuke is actually the illegitimate child of Joutarou’s grandfather, Joseph Joestar. When they meet, Joutarou realizes that he may have more in common with Jousuke than just a blood relation.
Along with the mild-mannered Kouichi Hirose and the boisterous Okuyasu Nijimura, the group dedicates themselves to investigating recent disappearances and other suspicious occurrences within Morioh.
Aided by the power of Stands, the four men will encounter danger at every street corner, as it is up to them to unravel the town’s secrets, before another occurs.

Manga-to-OVA Differences
- Many of the Stand battles throughout the original story are removed in the OVAs.
- In the manga, after Jotaro is freed from jail, he, Joseph, Avdol, and Holy discuss DIO’s whereabouts at a cafe. In the OVA, they discuss DIO’s location at Holy’s house.
- In the manga, Jotaro fights Kakyoin in the school infirmary. In the OVA, they fight in a nearby forest. In addition, the victim possessed by Hierophant Green has been changed from the school doctor to a female student.
- The group meets Polnareff inside Strength, rather than in Hong Kong like in the original story. In addition, Polnareff is not controlled by one of DIO’s flesh buds.
- In the original story, Jotaro defeats Forever by pummeling him with Star Platinum. In the OVA, Forever is instead sliced in half by Silver Chariot.
- The Joestar group’s visit to Singapore is completely removed.
- Nena is not revealed to be a Stand user, and does not stay with the group after Hol Horse’s escape.
- In the OVAs, Enya can use Justice to transform herself into an attractive young woman.
- Hol Horse does not reappear after being hurt by Enya.
- Jotaro discovers Enya’s identity with a method similar to the one he used on the Impostor Captain Tennille in the manga.
- Avdol reunites with the group during the fight with Enya, rather than during the fight with Cameo like in the manga.
- The flesh bud that kills Enya activates on its own, rather than being triggered by Steely Dan.
- Iggy keeps a consistent appearance throughout the OVA.
- The first scene of Phantom Blood, in which an Aztec tribe sacrifices a young woman to fuel the Aztec Chief’s Stone Mask, is shown as a prologue in the 1993 series.
- Daniel J. D’Arby provides his full name. In the original story, this is provided by his brother.
- After D’Arby is defeated, he gives the location of DIO’s mansion, but goes completely insane before he can reveal the secret of DIO’s Stand; in the manga, he goes insane before he can reveal either piece of information.
- Kakyoin does not rejoin the group before they enter DIO’s mansion. Instead, he arrives in time to save Joseph from DIO.
- Nukesaku is omitted from the story, causing the scene where DIO’s coffin is opened to be significantly different: The protagonists find it on their own, only to find Avdol inside when he opens it with Magician’s Red. DIO appears before everyone on the other side of the room and congratulates them for their efforts, before warning that someone is coming for them. Avdol then pushes Polnareff and Iggy away, at which point he is instantly killed by Cream.
- Much of the battle with Vanilla Ice is cut in the OVA. Iggy dies by having his lower body erased by Cream, rather than dying of blood loss from the beating that follows.
- Vanilla Ice’s death is changed from the original story: rather than exposing him to the sun, Polnareff kills Ice by simply stabbing him rapidly and slicing his head in two.
- The fight between Jotaro and DIO is changed drastically. In the manga, DIO figures out Jotaro can move in stopped time when he sees his fingers twitching. In the OVA, he finds out when Jotaro survives being punched by The World in stopped time. The latter part of the battle also includes extra scenes of pure physical action as the two battle across the city of Cairo, with a number of civilian casualties on DIO’s part.
- DIO drops an oil tanker on Jotaro instead of a road roller, which explodes from the damage inflicted by their attacks.
- Joseph’s revival occurs off-screen.
- In the OVA, DIO’s ashes are dropped and scattered from a Speedwagon Foundation plane over the sea, rather than being exposed to sunlight at ground level like in the original story.
- Joseph puts on a Gipsy Kings tape instead of «Get Back» by The Beatles.
6. The OVAs
Kujo Jotaro is a normal, popular Japanese high-schooler, until he thinks that he is possessed by a spirit, and locks himself in prison.
After seeing his grandfather, Joseph Joestar, and fighting Joseph’s friend Muhammad Abdul, Jotaro learns that the “Spirit” is actually Star Platinum, his Stand, or fighting energy given a semi-solid form.
Later, his mother gains a Stand, and becomes sick. Jotaro learns that it is because the vampire Dio Brando has been revived 100 years after his defeat to Jonathan Joestar, Jotaro’s great-great-grandfather. Jotaro decides to join Joseph and Abdul in a trip to Egypt to defeat Dio once and for all.
