Author's Note (Stardust Crusaders)

This section contains the quotations from Araki found in the English Version of the manga published by VIZ Media. In every volume of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, the front folded flap of the dust jacket usually contains a picture of Hirohiko Araki himself, and more than often a quotation. The quotes featured below the picture are always different from each other, and are usually about Araki expressing his opinion on certain subjects. These subjects can be about anything, including information about characters or the story itself.

'''Because the volumes published in English do not have dust jackets, Viz Media has taken the liberty of placing the quotes on the first page of every volume. Because of this, all the pictures are in not in color. So far, only Part III: Stardust Crusaders has been released outside Japan, and as such the volumes are labeled starting from 1.'''
