Many fans do start here thanks to its new cast and the debut of Stands, but watching from the first series gives the payoff much more weight.

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders is easy to find — it's on Crunchyroll, Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime Video, among others — and it's the part that turned JoJo into a phenomenon. This is where the series trades old-school Ripple battles for Stands, launching Jotaro Kujo and a crew of eccentric fighters on a globe-spanning road trip toward a very old enemy. If Parts 1 and 2 hooked you, this is the leap everyone talks about.

About

Jotaro Kujo is a hard-nosed delinquent who suddenly finds a strange power manifesting at his side — a 'Stand,' the physical shape of his fighting spirit. He isn't alone: across the world these Stands are awakening, and a long-dormant enemy tied to the Joestar bloodline is stirring right along with them. When that curse begins to threaten his own family, Jotaro sets out with his grandfather Joseph and a band of newfound allies, each wielding a Stand of their own, on a long journey east toward Egypt. Standing between them and their destination is a gauntlet of deadly Stand users, every one a puzzle as lethal as it is bizarre.

Seasons & Watch Order

Stardust Crusaders is the third part of JoJo, and while its fresh cast and new Stand system make it a popular entry point, you'll get far more out of it after the first anime series covering Parts 1 and 2. These 24 episodes are the opening leg of the journey; the story then continues into the Egypt arc.
