Revision as of 08:22, 29 May 2016

Sun (2), originally Two Rocks in the WSJ release, is the one hundred sixty-seventh chapter of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure manga. It is also the fifty-fourth chapter of Part III: Stardust Crusaders.

Summary

The Joestar group is confused by this incredible Sun Stand. Joseph says that even in a sauna, staying more than half an hour is dangerous. As the Stand seems to be very powerful, raising the temperature above 70 °C, the user should be close by, but they can't see him. It's so hot than even the camels are passing out.

Kakyoin tries to find out how far away the Stand is by sending Hierophant Green to investigate. 100 meters ahead, the enemy Stand seems to activate something, and Kakyoin has just enough time to launch an Emerald Splash and protect himself from the energy beams that the Stand launches at them. However, he's still wounded, and he's forced to call Hierophant Green away. Jotaro uses Star Platinum to dig a hole in the sand where the group can hide from the attack.

After Joseph gets upset and wonders if the user is invisible, Kakyoin starts laughing hysterically. Soon enough, Jotaro and Polnareff join him, and Joseph worries about their health, trying to make them come back to their senses. Kakyoin calms down and explains that they hadn't gone mad, but that they found out where the user was. He points out two rocks with shadows going in opposite directions. Star Platinum picks up a rock and throws it at full speed, making what looks like a hole in mid-air to Joseph.

After Jotaro wonders if Joseph can't think right because of the heat or if he's really his relative, the group gets out of the hole and finds out that the user was hiding in a device that consisted of a huge mirror reflecting the desert and preventing them from seeing him. Joseph hardly realizes that the fight is already over and that they don't even know the user's name. The group departs into the cold desert night.

Stardust Crusaders (スターダストクルセイダース Sutādasuto Kuruseidāsu) is the third part of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, serialized in Weekly Shōnen Jump from March 1989 to April 1992. The arc is preceded by Battle Tendency and spans 152 chapters.

Summary

Weekly Jump May 1 1989

From 1988 to 1989,[1] the story follows Jotaro Kujo and his friends as they journey from Tokyo to Cairo, Egypt, to save the life of his mother, Holy Kujo, by defeating his family's resurrected archenemy, DIO.

Jotaro travels with his grandfather, Joseph Joestar, as well as Muhammad Avdol, Noriaki Kakyoin, Jean Pierre Polnareff, and Iggy. The group fights several of DIO's minions and Stand users along the way.

Major Battles

Publication

Volumes are published in English by VIZ Media, and in Italian by Star ComicsW.

English Language Edition

Stardust Crusaders was the first part to be officially released in English. The series is edited by Jason Thompson, author of Manga: The Complete GuideW.

Some names were altered for the English release, presumably for copyright reasons. Additionally, the character Devo was changed entirely.

[citation needed]

Minor edits were made to artwork where certain scenes of animal violence were redrawn by Hirohiko Araki for the English release. Japanese volume 15 (English volume 3) featured a single panel of a dog being decapitated which was redrawn from an alternate angle, and Japanese volume 18 (English volume 6) has several redrawn panels where a mutilated dog was changed into a large rat.

Due to a controversy regarding one scene involving DIO apparently reading the Qur'anW in the OVA, Viz Media and Shueisha paused publication for a year, even though the manga did not feature that specific scene. However, Shueisha had Araki (or his assistants) redraw scenes that depicted characters fighting on top of or destroying buildings resembling mosquesW. Viz resumed publication on April 7, 2009, with Volume 11.

Trivia

  • This story was initially titled "Dai San Bu Kūjō Jōtarō: Mirai e no Isan" / "第三部 空条承太郎 ―未来への遺産" / (lit.) "Part 3 Kūjō Jōtarō: Heritage for the Future".
  • Stardust Crusaders contains the most popularly known characters and episodes of the series; introducing JoJo's distinctive Stand phenomenon, and the emblematic protagonist Jotaro Kujo.
  • Many characters were not named until the release of additional materials like the artbooks.
  • Araki describes the basis for Part 3 as like a board game, traveling between a series of stops; and further inspiration from the film Around the World in 80 Days.[2]
  • While he began plotting for this part, Araki first pitched it as a modern retelling of Dracula. There was only one person in the room who thought it was a good idea; the rest were utterly confused. His editors told him to have at least one Japanese character/story arc prior to this part, as they felt the story had too many foreign characters and settings for the comic's target audience.[3]
  • Part 3 is the last part to feature any vampires or the Ripple ability.
