This anime certainly lives up to the bizarreness of its title.So the show from Part 1 to 3revolves around multiple generations of a family called the Joestars fighting various supernatural threats.Firstly the art is worthy of praise a semi realistic semi exaggerated style that's rarely seen in anime.The animation is quite standard up to part two but begins flowing with energy from part three.The story is quite straightforward about strong guys fighting monsters.This predictability certainly weighs down part 1 but that contains a character arc and an unexpected ending to push it above most Shounen.Part 2 onwards the techniques and strategy used in a fight are so creative and bizarre you are guaranteed to be entertained.The humour always hits well which is rare for a Shounen and the characters reactions are a joy to watch.The characters themselves are never bad throughout the series but it's only after Part 1 where they truly shine.A 9/10 in my opinion for a good but not great start but an otherwise fantastic series.Definitely check it out.

Don't know why this anime was split into parts 1 and 2. I just watched episodes 1-26, so I'm going to review it as one show.It starts with a rich family (the Joestars) adopting a poor boy named Dio. Dio is the same age as the Joestar's son, Jonathan, and they become fierce rivals at everything trying to get the attention of Jonathan's father. Initially, Dio is better at everything, but as they grow up, Jonathan catches up to Dio, making him bitter and twisted. One day, he finds a stone mask, that when attached to his face, transforms him into an evil vampire...The shows stretches over 3 generations of Joestars and each son is nicknamed Jojo. They spend their lives fighting vampires and other, stronger immortals.What I really liked about this show was the humour. The characters were all great and the animation and action scenes were awesome, but the humour turned what could have been a dark, horror type story into something really fun. Normally, I'd prefer them to have left out the humour and gone down the dark path, but in this case, it really works well. Definitely worth a watch!
