Overview

AnimationAction & AdventureSci-Fi & Fantasy

Jotaro Kujo is a popular high school student – at least until that day when he thinks he is possessed by a ghost, which is why he locks himself up. During a fight between his grandfather and his grandfather’s friend Muhammad Abdul, he notices that the ghost is his “Stand”, named "Star Platinium", his fighting aura. Later, his mother also gets such a “Stand” and thus falls ill. Jotaro learns that a man named Dio Brando, who was defeated by Jotaro’s great-great-grandfather a hundred years ago, is to blame. He joins his grandfather and Abdul to destroy Dio once and for all.

Standout Aspects

Direction

Futamura's lean, brutal fight choreography — no filler, all killer.

Practical Effects

Hand-drawn Stand battles hit different than digital modern anime.

Sound

That synth score screams '90s OVA in the best way.

Best for:Rewatch: After you've seen the 2012 series, compare the vibes.·Solo: Late night, energy drink in hand, embrace the edge.·Friends: With that one friend who won't shut up about manga.
Heads up:Violence: Graphic body horror — Dio's flesh experiments are genuinely nasty.·Triggers: Animal cruelty scene with a dog that's hard to forget.
