If we're talking about the most popular shonen anime right now, it has to be "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: The Planetary Expedition" produced by the Land of Light.

From the very first episode, the density of bullet comments has never dropped.

The first two parts of this story have already built a sufficiently large audience base.

The first book, "Phantom Blood," introduced everyone to Da Qiao.

Jonathan Joestar, a gentleman to the core, exemplified true courage and sacrifice with his life.

The second installment, Battle Tendency, made everyone fall in love with Joestar.

Joseph Joestar, that sassy New York hoodlum who relies on his wits to fight.

His famous line, "Your next sentence is..." transformed countless viewers into the shape of the JOJO series.

In the third installment, the timeline jumps to 1987.

A hundred years have passed since Jonathan and Dior perished together on the cruise ship.

But the Joestar family's fate has never truly escaped the shadow of that vampire.

The coffin at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean is retrieved, and Dio Brando returns to the world in his most twisted way.

Meanwhile, a teenager locked himself in a cell in prison, claiming he was "possessed by an evil spirit."

His name is Jotaro Kujo.

Joseph Joestar's grandson, Jonathan Joestar's great-grandson, a high school student who is 1.95 meters tall.

His stand-in is named Star Platinum.

The ability is precise control and great strength, commonly known as great power.

Platinum Star made its first appearance in prison.

To prove the existence of the "evil spirit," Jotaro had the police hand him a gun.

He pulled the trigger against his forehead, and the bullet was caught firmly in a purple fist the moment it left the barrel.

The bullet hovered three centimeters in front of Jotaro's forehead, completely still.

At that moment, the comments section went crazy.

"What kind of devilish opening is this? Fighting yourself??"

"This man's face is ridiculously ugly. What kind of breed is a 1.95-meter-tall high school student??"

"This stunt double is so cool!!!"

"Wait, what's this Stand's ability? Catching bullets with bare hands? How high is that strength level??"

Where there are main characters, there must be supporting characters.

Joseph Joestar was 67 years old at this time.

The rebellious young man of yesteryear has become a white-haired American real estate tycoon, but his frivolous old habits remain unchanged.

His Stand is called the Purple Hermit, and its ability is telepathy.

By smashing the camera, one can project an image of the person they long for.

Although its combat power is far inferior to that of the Platinum Star, this ability has high strategic value.

The moment the audience saw Joseph Sr. appear on screen, the comments section erupted in unison.

"Westward retreat!!"

"The two Qiaos have aged, but their flirtatious charm remains undiminished."

Muhammad Abuder was a diviner from Egypt.

His Stand is the Red Magician, whose abilities are fire and high temperatures.

The moment the Red Magician rose from behind him, the entire screen was dyed crimson by flames.

"Crazy Thursday Boy!"

"This fire effect... the Land of Light's budget is burning!"

"Avdol: Crazy Crazy Thursday, Roast Chicken for 9.9 Yuan"

Noriaki Kakyoin, a high school student wearing a green uniform.

His Stand is the Green Emperor, whose abilities are long-range manipulation and Emerald Splash.

He was implanted with a flesh bud by Dio and had a life-or-death battle with Jotaro. After the flesh bud was removed, he joined the expeditionary force.

Kakyoin is the kind of character who appears gentle and refined at first glance, but is actually more ruthless than anyone else when it comes to fighting.

Four men, four Stand users, come together because of a common goal.

Joseph Joestar's daughter and Jotaro Kujo's mother.

Holly Joestar is in critical condition because she awakened her Stand but was unable to control its power.

There is only one way to save her: go to Egypt and kill Dio.

Once Dio dies, the curse on his Stand will be lifted.

Thus, these four men formed a JO-level boy band and embarked on an expedition that spanned most of the globe.

This montage of the departure scene is accompanied by the iconic song "STAND PROUD".

"Star Expeditionary Force, set sail!"

"Across Eurasia and Africa in fifty days, a JO-level boy band is on their way!"

I would call it a "memorable scene generator".

"Land of Light: We don't just make animation, we also make boy bands!"

On the plane, they encountered the first assassin sent by Dio.

Grey Frye, who uses the Stand "Grey Tower".

Grey Tower is a giant insect-shaped Stand that disguises itself as an airplane passenger to infiltrate the cabin and launch a surprise attack with its sharp mouthparts.

Kakyoin Noriaki defeated him with the Green Emperor, but Gray Tower destroyed the aircraft's control system before dying.

The plane had to make an emergency landing at sea, and the group was barely rescued and temporarily stayed in Hong Kong.

In Hong Kong, they encountered a new Stand user.

Polunarev, a Frenchman, had a striking silver-white broom-like hairstyle.

His Stand is called Silver Chariot, and its ability is pure swordsmanship.

A silver rapier, wielded with lightning speed, its blade cutting through the air in its wake.

The battle between Avdol and Polnareff's Stand users takes place at Tiger and Leopard Villa.

The silver chariot hovered behind Polnareff.

"Your Stand is fire?"

Polnareff looked at Avdol, a slight smile playing on his lips. "Too bad, your flames can't even touch my Silver Chariot."

Aboudal did not respond.

He clasped his hands together in front of his chest, and a flickering flame appeared between his palms.

The flame expanded into a spinning fireball in a fraction of a second, and the red magician slowly rose from behind him.

The flames wove together a scorching curtain.

"Red Magician - Cross Flame Hurricane!!"

Flames erupted from in front of Avdol, forming a huge cross-shaped fireball that roared toward Polnareff.

The heatwave made the ground buzz.

Polnareff neither dodged nor evaded; the silver chariot's blade traced an elegant path from the upper right to the lower left.

The cross-shaped fiery hurricane was cleaved in two by a single sword strike.

The flames scattered in mid-air, turning into countless tiny sparks that fell onto the ground between the two.

"I told you, your flames can't touch my sword."

Polnareff was very pleased with himself.

A complete rout, with absolutely no chance of a comeback!

But in the world of JoJo, the battle between Stands is never a simple matter of overwhelming each other with superior strength.
