# Where to Watch JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders **Stardust Crusaders marks JoJo's switch from Ripple combat to Stand battles, with this 24-episode season covering the opening stretch of Jotaro Kujo's journey. Legal viewing options include Crunchyroll and Netflix, while Hulu, Amazon Prime Video and Tubi provide additional choices. This finished 2014 TV series suits viewers who enjoy fights built around discovering an opponent's strange ability and finding a way around its rules. Its road-trip structure brings frequent new enemies and gives many episodes a self-contained problem, while the pursuit of the Joestar family's old foe keeps the larger story moving. Start with Parts 1 and 2 if possible, since they supply the family history behind the conflict. If you already liked those parts, the new combat system and rotating Stand matchups make this a rewarding next step.** ## Where to Watch - [Amazon Prime Video](https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/detail/B0B8PTTWHY/) - [Crunchyroll](https://www.crunchyroll.com/jojos-bizarre-adventure) - [Hoopla](https://www.hoopladigital.com/television/jojos-bizarre-adventure-dubbed-season-2-matthew-mercer/14643097) - [Hoopla](https://www.hoopladigital.com/television/jojos-bizarre-adventure-subbed-season-2-daisuke-ono/14735823) - [Hulu](https://www.hulu.com/jojos-bizarre-adventure) - [Netflix](https://www.netflix.com/title/80179831) - [Tubi TV](https://tubitv.com/series/1823/jojos_bizarre_adventure) Crunchyroll and Netflix offer prominent routes to Stardust Crusaders.

He soon learns that it is a Stand, a supernatural manifestation that other people around the world have begun to wield. The awakening is connected to an enemy from the Joestar family's past, and the consequences reach Jotaro's own home. Jotaro leaves with his grandfather Joseph and several Stand users, heading toward Egypt in search of the source. Progress comes through confrontations with hostile Stand wielders whose powers cannot be beaten by strength alone. Each encounter forces the group to identify an unfamiliar rule or trap before continuing the journey. ## Fast Facts - **Format:** TV - **Episodes:** 24 - **Premiered:** 2014 - **Studio:** David Production - **Score:** 7.9 ## Watch Order This is JoJo Part 3, so the recommended starting point remains the earlier anime that adapts Parts 1 and 2. Their events establish the Joestar history and the returning threat behind Jotaro's trip. These 24 episodes cover the journey's first portion, followed by the Egypt arc continuation. - [JoJo no Kimyou na Bouken (TV)](https://hozuna.com/anime/jojo-s-bizarre-adventure) (prequel) - JoJo no Kimyou na Bouken Part 3: Stardust Crusaders - Egypt-hen (sequel) ## If You Liked This - **[Hunter x Hunter](https://hozuna.com/anime/hunter-x-hunter)**: Choose this next if Stand battles left you wanting another power system governed by clear limitations.

Crunchyroll and Netflix are two options for watching it. The same season can also be found through Hulu, Amazon Prime Video and the ad-supported service Tubi. ### How long is Stardust Crusaders?

Its new lead group and introduction of Stands make the immediate conflict understandable. Beginning with Parts 1 and 2 gives the family connections greater context, so this works better as the next chapter than as the starting line. ### What is the watch order around Stardust Crusaders?
