Description[edit]
By Hirohiko Araki, this was a series that presented the idea of "Stands" that protect and assist the characters greatly during battle. What's also notable that most of the characters (and Stands as the series goes on) are named after musicians, bands and in part 6's case, fashion brands. Kinda why the Part 5 PS2 game never got an overseas release and why All Star Battle took a while to show up overseas really.
Unless you watched Part 1 or 2 where we had Hamon power instead. Basically "Hamon" was if Hokuto Shinken was powered by magic breathing techniques, sun power and was only mostly good for killing vampires. Then Part 7 came up with the "Spin" power involving some magic rectangle and spinning steel balls around or whatever.
Currently the manga's on Part 8 ("Jojolion"), a story about some sailor guy called Josuke Higashikata (no relation to the dude from Part 4) who may or may not be Yoshikage Kira and some other guy fused together. He has a Stand called "Soft & Wet" that can take shit from people. Using bubbles. Kinda cute.
Basically its the long adventures of the Joestar family over many generations as they fight a series of douchebag super villains. It can easily be summarised as thus (SPOILERS WATCH OUT)
- Part 1 (Phantom Blood): Jonathan meets Dio, Dio goes vampire on him, Jonathan teams up with former thief Robert E. O. Speedwagon and Italian top-hatted Obi-Wan ripoff William Anthonio Zeppeli to beat Dio up. Also Jonathan learns "Hamon" and dies at the end thanks to Dio's severed head shooting eye goo at his neck.

Also Joseph teams up with a Nazi. Yes. Nazis portrayed as the good guys here. And yet the Nazi (Stroheim) is one of the most enjoyable characters in the series.

(Yoshikage Kira) Jotaro and Josuke beat the shit out of Kira and a whole bunch of other Stand masters. Also this was around the time Stands started getting named after bands and shit. Hell, Josuke's Stand is called "Crazy Diamond" for pete's sake.

No really. SBR is THAT kinda story.
- Part 8 (Jojolion): Currently ongoing. Josuke Higashikata, some kid with a gap in his teeth, four testicles (no really) and a sailor suit wakes up underground beneath something called "Wall Eyes" and goes on a batshit insane journey with Yasuho Hirose to find out who he is.
Surprisingly, Dio isn't the main villain in every single arc but he does have connections to some of them (Using a Stone Mask invented by Kars from Part 2, had one of his magic Stand Arrows stolen from him by Yoshikage Kira's dad in Part 4, was Giorno's dad in Part 5 and also had an arrow stolen by Diavolo and was totally gay for Enrico Pucci in part 6 along with his other sons, Ungaro, Rykiel and Donatello Versace showing up.)
