Story Plot

The story is set in England in the early-to-late 1880s,[a][b] and follows Jonathan Joestar, the heir of the wealthy Joestar family, and his adoptive brother Dio Brando, who wishes to take the Joestar fortune for himself. Using an ancient stone mask, Dio transforms himself into a vampire, and Jonathan learns the sunlight-based martial arts technique of Hamon[c] to fight him. Araki described the themes of the story as "being alive" and "an affirmation that humanity is wonderful", with characters growing and overcoming problems through their own actions. The series lasted for a total of twelve episodes, and was reasonably positively received by fans of the series, though it only gained mixed reviews from critics.
