{{nihongo|'''''Stardust Crusaders'''''|スターダストクルセイダース|Sutādasuto Kuruseidāsu|lead=yes}} is the third story arc of the [[manga]] series ''[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure]]'' written and illustrated by [[Hirohiko Araki]]. The arc was serialized for a little over 3 years. It was serialized in [[Shueisha]]'s ''[[Weekly Shōnen Jump]]'' from April 3, 1989,<ref>{{cite web |script-title=ja:週刊少年ジャンプ1989年16 |url=https://mediaarts-db.bunka.go.jp/id/M543856 |website=Media Arts Database |publisher=[[Agency for Cultural Affairs]] |access-date=September 21, 2022 |language=ja}}</ref> to April 27, 1992,<ref>{{cite web |script-title=ja:週刊少年ジャンプ1992年19 |url=https://mediaarts-db.bunka.go.jp/id/M543700 |website=Media Arts Database |publisher=[[Agency for Cultural Affairs]] |access-date=September 21, 2022 |language=ja}}</ref> for 152 chapters, which were later collected into 16 {{Transliteration|ja|[[tankōbon]]}} volumes. In its original publication, it was known as {{nihongo|''JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Part 3 Jotaro Kujo: Heritage for the Future''|ジョジョの奇妙な冒険 第三部 空条承太郎 —未来への遺産—|JoJo no Kimyō na Bōken Dai San Bu Kūjō Jōtarō -Mirai e no Isan-}}. The arc was preceded by ''[[Battle Tendency]]'' and followed by ''[[Diamond Is Unbreakable]]''.

The story is set long after the events of ''Battle Tendency'' and follows [[Joseph Joestar]]'s grandson [[Jotaro Kujo]], a Japanese high school delinquent who awakens Star Platinum, a guardian spirit known as a Stand with superhuman abilities. Alongside his grandfather and other Stand-users, they are tasked to go on a journey to [[Cairo]], Egypt, in order to defeat [[Dio Brando|Dio]], who is revealed to be alive and is seeking revenge on the Joestar family.

In 2012, ''Stardust Crusaders'' was digitally colored and released as digital downloads for [[smartphone]]s and [[tablet computer]]s. A ten-volume hardcover re-release under the title ''JoJonium''{{efn|{{nihongo|''JoJonium''|ジョジョニウム|Jojoniumu}}}} was published in 2014 and 2015.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://natalie.mu/comic/news/99692|title=コミックナタリー - 「ジョジョ」カラーページを完全再現した「JoJonium」刊行|publisher=[[Natalie.mu]]|date=September 19, 2013|access-date=2016-08-23|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160414054558/http://natalie.mu/comic/news/99692|archive-date=2016-04-14}}</ref> [[Viz Media]] initially released the sixteen-volume format of the arc in North America between 2005 and 2010.

It is one of the most popular parts of the ''JoJo's Bizarre Adventure'' series as it introduced the audience to the concept of Stands, which differentiated it from its predecessors.<ref name="1000manga">{{cite web|title=Jason Thompson's House of 1000 Manga - Jojo's Bizarre Adventure|url=http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/house-of-1000-manga/2010-12-23|work=[[Anime News Network]]|access-date=2012-04-15|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120422183157/http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/house-of-1000-manga/2010-12-23|archive-date=2012-04-22}}</ref><ref name="MikeToole">{{cite web|title=The Mike Toole Show - Jojo's Mojo|url=http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/the-mike-toole-show/2014-06-01/.75101|work=[[Anime News Network]]|access-date=2014-06-01|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140603030339/http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/the-mike-toole-show/2014-06-01/.75101|archive-date=2014-06-03}}</ref> This popularity later spawned video games, a three volume [[Radio drama in Japan|drama CD]] series, two novels and two [[Original video animation|OVA]] series of this arc alone.

''Stardust Crusaders'' also stands out as the only arc of the series to gain any notable Western exposure prior to the release of the anime series by David Production in 2012, due to the [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure (OVA)|1993 OVA series]], [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure (video game)|1999 video game]] and the English releases of the manga in 2005–2010.

==Plot==
In Japan, 1987,{{efn|The arc's setting was later [[Retroactive continuity|changed]] to 1988.}} [[Jotaro Kujo]], grandson of [[Joseph Joestar]], has been arrested, and refuses to leave his cell, believing he is possessed by an evil spirit. After being called by Holly, Joseph's daughter and Jotaro's mother, Joseph arrives with an associate, Mohammed Avdol. They explain that Jotaro's "evil spirit" is actually a manifestation of his fighting spirit, called a Stand, and reveal that they possess Stands as well. Joseph explains that the sudden appearance of their Stands is caused by the nemesis of his grandfather, [[Jonathan Joestar]]: [[Dio Brando]], now simply referred to as Dio (stylized in all caps). Dio has survived his final battle with Jonathan by decapitating his nemesis's corpse and attaching his own head to it. Now preparing for global conquest, Dio has awoken his own Stand (which awakens the Stands of the rest of the Joestar bloodline due to his use of Jonathan's body) and recruited Stand-using assassins to kill Jonathan's remaining descendants. Soon after, Jotaro uses his Stand, which is later named Star Platinum, to defeat the first of these assassins, a transfer student named Noriaki Kakyoin, before freeing Kakyoin from Dio's control by removing a parasitic flesh bud from him. Holly soon becomes gravely ill due to a Stand manifesting in her, which is slowly killing her due to her weak personality. With little hesitation, Jotaro, Joseph, Avdol, and Kakyoin begin a journey to [[Egypt]] to kill Dio and save Holly's life. On the way, they defeat another brainwashed assassin named Jean Pierre Polnareff who later joins the quest to kill Dio and avenge the death of his sister, whose murderer is among Dio's forces.

Forced to travel on foot after Dio's assassins manage to foil their travel by plane and ship, the group encounter Hol Horse and the murderer of Polnareff's sister, J. Geil, in [[Kolkata|Calcutta]], with Avdol seemingly killed during the confrontation. Polnareff kills J. Geil with Kakyoin's help, and the remaining group travels further into [[Pakistan]]. After defeating Geil's mother, a Dio loyalist named Enya, the group reach the [[Red Sea]], where Polnareff learns Avdol faked his death to acquire a submarine that allows them to reach Egypt.

Upon arriving in [[Abu Simbel]], the heroes are joined by Iggy, a [[Boston Terrier]] with a Stand of his own, while facing the first of nine Stands named after Egyptian deities (rather than the tarot theme of before). Kakyoin is wounded in the fight, and is taken to a hospital to recuperate. After the group defeats several more Stand users while reaching [[Cairo]], Iggy discovers and leads them to Dio's mansion, with Kakyoin rejoining them. At the mansion's entrance, the party is split up- Jotaro, Joseph, and Kakyoin fight the last of the nine Egyptian god Stands, while Polnareff, Avdol, and Iggy make their way through the mansion. However, one of Dio's servants, Vanilla Ice, kills Avdol and Iggy, both of whom separately sacrifice themselves to save Polnareff. An enraged Polnareff battles Vanilla Ice and discovers that Vanilla Ice has been transformed into a vampire like Dio, a fact that Vanilla Ice himself was unaware of. Polnareff floods the room with light, disintegrating Vanilla Ice and avenging his friends whose spirits peacefully head to Heaven.

Jotaro, Joseph, Kakyoin, and Polnareff ultimately encounter Dio, and escape his mansion. A chase across Cairo follows, leading to Kakyoin confronting Dio and his Stand, The World, whose power Dio has taken great lengths to keep secret (having previously assassinated Enya to keep her from telling the heroes). Though fatally wounded by The World, Kakyoin manages to deduce the Stand's ability to stop time for five seconds and covertly relays it to Joseph in his final moments. Joseph is able to pass it on to Jotaro, but is swiftly killed by Dio, who uses his blood to increase the duration of his ability to nine seconds. With most of his allies dead and Polnareff unconscious, Jotaro is left to fight Dio alone. During the fight, both sides discover that their respective Stands are similar in both range, power, and ability, meaning that Jotaro is able to use The World's time-stopping powers as well. Jotaro first uses this ability to briefly move around while Dio has stopped time, but he learns how to stop time directly when Dio tries to crush him with a [[road roller]]. Dio attempts to kill Jotaro with one final kick, but a counterattack from Jotaro splits The World in two, killing it and Dio. Jotaro transfuses Dio's blood back into Joseph and uses Star Platinum to restart his stopped heart (an ability he'd previously used on himself while playing dead during the fight with Dio), reviving him. The two Joestars then expose Dio's corpse to the sun, destroying the vampire for good. Jotaro and Joseph bid Polnareff farewell before returning to Japan, as Holly has made a full recovery.

==Production==
Having originally planned the series as a trilogy, Araki thought to have the final confrontation set in present-day Japan. But he did not want it to be a tournament affair, which was popular in ''[[Weekly Shōnen Jump]]'' at the time, and therefore decided to make it a "[[road movie]]" inspired by ''[[Around the World in Eighty Days]]''. He modeled Jotaro after American actor [[Clint Eastwood]], including his poses and catchphrases. Although the author said the character might seem "rough" compared to other ''Jump'' protagonists, Jotaro fits his own image of a hero perfectly as a "loner" who does not do the right thing for attention. Araki said the character wearing his school uniform in the desert has its roots in [[Mitsuteru Yokoyama]]'s ''[[Babel II]]'', and that if he were to draw the part over again, he would base the Stands on ''[[Tetsujin 28-go]]''.<ref>{{cite book|author=Araki, Hirohiko|title=JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Part 3 Stardust Crusaders|volume=1|page=273|date=November 1, 2016|publisher=Viz Media|isbn=978-1-4215-9065-3}}</ref> Araki originally thought of Stands as something inorganic powered by life force. When creating them he often takes inspiration from artifacts such as clothing, masks, and dolls by indigenous peoples, which when fused with something biological or mechanical, makes for a very unique design.<ref name="Iggy">{{cite book|author=Araki, Hirohiko|title=JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Part 3 Stardust Crusaders|volume=8|page=231|date=August 7, 2018|publisher=Viz Media|isbn=978-1-4215-9174-2}}</ref>

Araki said he had a lot of readers asking him to bring older characters back. Although he is not a fan of bringing them back simply for nostalgia, he did not hesitate having Joseph return from ''[[Battle Tendency]]'' to save his daughter because it is completely true to the character. The author thought of having Joseph drop out partway through due to his age, but ended up "playing it by ear" as serialization continued. He gave him the role of "navigator", introducing the readers to the Joestar family, Dio, Hamon and Stands, and his own Stand being a support ability rather than offensive. Stands being a succession of the Hamon and Hamon being life energy that spreads across the body through breathing, Araki thought Joseph's Hermit Purple vines wrapping around his body were a visual representation of that.<ref>{{cite book|author=Araki, Hirohiko|title=JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Part 3 Stardust Crusaders|volume=2|page=267|date=February 7, 2017|publisher=Viz Media|isbn=978-1-4215-9157-5}}</ref>

[[File:EgyptFrontispiece.jpg|thumb|The focus on [[Egypt]] and inclusion of an Egyptian main character was reflective of widespread interest in Japanese society regarding "birthplaces of civilization."]]
Avdol was given the role of "subleader" who acts as navigator, and, with steadfast determination and an unyielding sense of duty, he is the one in the group that everyone can rely on. Araki said he gave him an "ethnic" design to have some sort of connection to Egypt and that at the time of serialization, he and most of the readers had a strong interest in the "birthplaces of civilization", making Avdol's design a "product of the times". Not wanting readers to get complacent, the author took Avdol out of action under the guise of death. Although he intended to bring him back, he did not have specific plans and just wrote what came natural. In hindsight, Araki felt he probably should have given Avdol a section where he played a more primary role, but also believes that he would not have ranked well in a character popularity poll, as the readers only wanted more fights featuring Jotaro. Araki also said that Avdol's Stand was difficult to draw as controlling fire is a common thing in manga and film, and if you "play it too loose" it can break the power balance. As such, fire and poison are two abilities he is okay with barring from future use.<ref>{{cite book|author=Araki, Hirohiko|title=JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Part 3 Stardust Crusaders|volume=6|page=323|date=February 6, 2018|publisher=Viz Media|isbn=978-1-4215-9172-8}}</ref>

Araki stated that he had Kakyoin act as a [[Foil (literature)|foil]] to Jotaro. Although they both wear school uniforms, Kakyoin's well-tailored one gives him the feel of an honor student, while Jotaro's loose-fitting one and accessories convey that he is a delinquent. He made him Jotaro's first real Stand opponent to visually convey the concepts between short-range and long-range Stand abilities. The author revealed that he always read the [[kanji]] for Kakyoin's given name as "Tenmei," but his editor approved the reading Noriaki for the ''tankōbon'' much to his surprise.<ref>{{cite book|author=Araki, Hirohiko|title=JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Part 3 Stardust Crusaders|volume=5|page=305|date=November 7, 2017|publisher=Viz Media|isbn=978-1-4215-9171-1}}</ref>

In order to not have him overlap with Jotaro and Joseph, Polnareff was given a distinctive look and personality, which in turn made him shine on his own, with his lines standing out "for better or for worse". Because he is a versatile character who could say goofy lines or serious ones, he "needed" to make more appearances. More appearances means more fights, and because he made it through so many life-or-death situations, Araki feels that Polnareff grew the most in the story. The author used foreign models as reference for his hair, and also drew it like Rudol von Stroheim's from ''Battle Tendency''. The character's name was inspired by those of Araki's three favorite French people, actors [[Alain Delon]] and [[Jean-Paul Belmondo]], and musician [[Michel Polnareff]].<ref>{{cite book|author=Araki, Hirohiko|title=JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Part 3 Stardust Crusaders|volume=9|page=390|date=November 6, 2018|publisher=Viz Media|isbn=978-1-4215-9175-9}}</ref>

With the series meant to be long-running, Araki took great care in deciding which unique Stand user to put the main cast against and when, in order to keep readers interested. He designed Strength, Ebony Devil, and Yellow Temperance so that their appearances and abilities did not overlap. But as these were all one-on-one battles, he then decided to introduce Hol Horse and J. Geil as a team. He had always planned on having Kakyoin and Polnareff switch allegiances to the good guys, but not Hol Horse. Although he drew a color illustration with Hol Horse alongside the Joestar group and had the character return several times through the story, he suspects he did not go through with it because his personality overlaps with Polnareff's. He also said that because he did not put many limitations on his Stand, it kind of got out of control, plus it overlaps with Kakyoin's Emerald Splash. He did enjoy Hol Horse's "why be number one when you can be number two" philosophy, which the author carried over to Yoshikage Kira in ''[[Diamond Is Unbreakable]]'', and his outlaw appearance is similar to that of Gyro Zeppeli from ''[[Steel Ball Run]]'' and might have been inspired by [[Buichi Terasawa]]'s ''[[Cobra (manga)|Cobra]]''.<ref>{{cite book|author=Araki, Hirohiko|title=JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Part 3 Stardust Crusaders|volume=3|page=287|date=May 2, 2017|publisher=Viz Media|isbn=978-1-4215-9169-8}}</ref>

Not having any limitations on what he can put in ''JoJo's Bizarre Adventure'', Araki has animals appear and even had one join the Joestar party. Wanting to add an animal as a pet, he chose a dog which to him symbolizes loyalty and friendship. Contradicting what he said in an earlier volume, Araki revealed that just like with Kakyoin and Polnareff, he did not originally plan for Iggy to join the group. Although he feels that The Fool is a perfect fit for Iggy, it just happened to be the last tarot card for him to assign aside from The World. Additionally, he thought of assigning The Fool to an enemy instead, but things just "ended up working out the way they did". Being the first time he made an animal a major character and the first time he showed one in battle, Araki used [[Yoshihiro Takahashi]]'s ''[[Ginga: Nagareboshi Gin]]'' as a reference. He described The Fool as representing his ideal design for a Stand; starting with a dog, then adding a Native American mask, and then the tires of a car. The third aspect was added because ''Weekly Shōnen Jump'' was sponsoring a [[Formula One]] car at the time.<ref name="Iggy"/>

Having previously done a gambling battle in his manga ''Cool Shock B.T.'', Araki wanted to do another as a Stand battle, leading to the creation of D'Arby the Elder. His Stand ability came from the author's own belief that the money and chips you gamble with in real life are a representation of your soul. Having greatly enjoyed the fight, Araki later introduced his younger brother. Looking back, he believes that the D'Arby brothers and the Oingo Boingo brothers separated ''JoJo's Bizarre Adventure'' from other manga because it allowed him to add much more variation to its battles. He also said that this led to the dice battle in ''Diamond Is Unbreakable'' and the beetle battle in ''[[JoJolion]]''.<ref>{{cite book|author=Araki, Hirohiko|title=JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Part 3 Stardust Crusaders|volume=7|page=371|date=May 1, 2018|publisher=Viz Media|isbn=978-1-4215-9173-5}}</ref>

Enya the Hag was modeled after the scary old women from [[horror film]]s and created to answer how Dio learned about Stands. Her Stand was also inspired by horror films, where an unknown virus comes from space. Her son's Stand being similar to a mummy and mermaid, again references horror movies. Enya again utilizes what Araki learned from Lisa Lisa in ''Battle Tendency''; the supernatural basis of Stands and Hamon evens the battlefield for women and children to match up against strong men.<ref>{{cite book|author=Araki, Hirohiko|title=JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Part 3 Stardust Crusaders|volume=4|page=283|date=August 1, 2017|publisher=Viz Media|isbn=978-1-4215-9170-4}}</ref>

Araki recalled how his editor suddenly ended up in the hospital during the serialization of Jotaro and Dio's final fight. Without his valuable advice, the author said it was difficult and he started panicking as the end was approaching.<ref>{{cite book|author=Araki, Hirohiko|title=JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Part 3 Stardust Crusaders|volume=10|page=387|date=February 5, 2019|publisher=Viz Media|isbn=978-1-4215-9176-6}}</ref>

===English adaptation===
[[Viz Media]] began publishing an English adaptation of ''JoJo's Bizarre Adventure'' in 2005. Skipping Parts 1 and 2, they started with the ''Stardust Crusaders'' arc and moved the last chapter of Japanese volume 12 to the beginning of volume 13. This English volume 1 included a recap of ''Phantom Blood'' and ''Battle Tendency'' in order to clarify story points for Western readers. The English edition of the manga was edited by [[Jason Thompson (writer)|Jason Thompson]], author of ''[[Manga: The Complete Guide]]''. Between November 8, 2005, and December 7, 2010, all 16 volumes (corresponding to Japanese volumes 13–28) were published in North America.

Minor edits were made to artwork where certain scenes of animal violence were redrawn by Hirohiko Araki himself.<ref name="1000manga"/> Volume 3 of the English edition features a single panel of a dog being decapitated that was redrawn from an alternate angle, and volume 6 has several redrawn panels where a mutilated dog was changed into a large rat. [[Mosque]]s in volume 15 were redrawn after international controversy (see below), though this was also in recent Japanese printings. English volume 7 features redrawn artwork in the final chapter of the "Death 13" story arc in order to remove scenes of human feces. Any instances of real-life brand names and logos (such as drinks and automotive brands) were erased. Some character names were altered, presumably for copyright reasons. According to Thompson, the names used in this initial English edition were approved by Araki.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://pulllist.comixology.com/articles/63/To-All-the-Manga-Ive-Edited-Before |title=To All the Manga I've Edited Before|work=[[Comixology]] |date=2008-05-22|access-date=2023-09-17|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151208065514/https://pulllist.comixology.com/articles/63/To-All-the-Manga-Ive-Edited-Before |archive-date=2015-12-08}}</ref>

Between 2016 and 2019, Viz Media released ''Stardust Crusaders'' in a new deluxe hardcover edition as part of their publication of the entire ''JoJo's Bizarre Adventure'' series in the same format as the Japanese ''JoJonium'' edition.<ref name="viz2016"/> All changes to the original art were reverted, excluding the aforementioned mosques, but some character names were still changed.

==Chapters==
In the original volumization, chapter 114 is collected in volume 12, listed on the ''[[Battle Tendency]]'' page. The original Japanese title is listed first, followed by the title used in the English publication.

A 13-episode [[Original video animation|OVA]] series, ''[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure (OVA)|JoJo's Bizarre Adventure]]'', was produced by Studio APPP. The first six episodes were released on [[VHS]] and [[Laserdisc]] by [[Pony Canyon]] from 1993 to 1994, covering the latter part of this arc. When the series was released on [[DVD]] by Klock Worx from 2000 to 2002, an additional set of seven episodes were produced by the same cast and crew, serving as a [[prequel]] to the earlier episodes (which were subsequently re-released with new chronological numbering). Super Techno Arts produced a North American English dub version of all 13 episodes in chronological order as a six-volume DVD series.

An [[anime]] television adaptation of the series, titled ''[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders]]'', was produced by [[David Production]] and aired in Japan between April 2014 and June 2015. The series was simulcast by [[Crunchyroll]], with several names rewritten to avoid copyright infringement.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2013-10-16/jojo-bizarre-adventure-part-3-anime-confirmed|title=JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Part 3 TV Anime Confirmed - News|publisher=Anime News Network|date=October 16, 2013|access-date=2014-04-05|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150924063858/http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2013-10-16/jojo-bizarre-adventure-part-3-anime-confirmed|archive-date=2015-09-24}}</ref> In addition to the second season of the anime, a mobile app game titled ''JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Shooters'' was also released.

The arc has been adapted into several video games. The first was a [[role-playing video game]] released in 1993 for the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|Super Famicom]] under the title of ''JoJo's Bizarre Adventure''. A [[fighting game]] for [[Arcade game|arcades]] by [[Capcom]], also simply titled ''[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure (video game)|JoJo's Bizarre Adventure]]'', was released in 1998. It was released internationally as ''JoJo's Venture'', and followed by an upgraded version titled ''JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Heritage for the Future''. The international version this time retained the manga's actual full title of ''JoJo's Bizarre Adventure'', dropping the ''Heritage for the Future'' subtitle. The upgraded version was then ported to the [[PlayStation]] and [[Dreamcast]] in 1999, and a high-definition version was released for [[PlayStation Network]] and [[Xbox Live Arcade]] in August 2012 before being delisted in 2014.<ref>{{cite web|title=1st Jojo's Bizarre Adventure Fighting Game Remade in HD|url=http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2012-07-14/1st-jojo-bizarre-adventure-fighting-game-remade-in-hd|work=[[Anime News Network]]|access-date=2012-07-15|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120717172932/http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2012-07-14/1st-jojo-bizarre-adventure-fighting-game-remade-in-hd|archive-date=2012-07-17}}</ref> Several characters from ''Stardust Crusaders'' later appear in the crossover games ''[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All Star Battle]]'' and ''[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Eyes of Heaven]]'', both published by [[Bandai Namco Entertainment]] and developed by [[CyberConnect2]]. Jotaro and Dio in particular also appear in several crossover games with other ''Weekly Shōnen Jump'' characters, such as in ''[[Jump Super Stars]]'', ''[[Jump Ultimate Stars]]'' and most recently ''[[Jump Force]]''.

==Controversy==
In May 2008, both Shueisha and Studio APPP halted manga/OVA shipments of ''JoJo'' after a complaint had been launched against them by a group of online [[Muslim]] protestors after a scene from one of the OVA's episodes features Dio reading a book depicting pages from the [[Quran|Qur'an]].<ref name="1000manga"/><ref>{{cite web|title=Jojo's Anime, Manga Sales Halted Due to Islamic Images|url=http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2008-05-22/jojo-anime-manga-sales-halted-due-to-islamic-images|work=[[Anime News Network]]|access-date=2008-05-22|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080524170858/http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2008-05-22/jojo-anime-manga-sales-halted-due-to-islamic-images|archive-date=2008-05-24}}</ref> This recall affected the English-language releases as well, causing Viz Media and Shueisha to cease publication for a year. Even though the manga did not feature that specific scene, Shueisha had Araki redraw scenes that depicted characters fighting on-top, and destroying, [[mosque]]s.<ref name="1000manga"/><ref>{{Cite web|title=Dear Muslim audience of "''Jojo's Bizarre Adventure''|url=https://www.shueisha.co.jp/info/index_e.html|access-date=2022-02-10|publisher=Shueisha|date=May 22, 2008}}</ref> Viz resumed publication a year later, with the eleventh volume being published on April 7, 2009, and thus their publication was continued.

==Reception==
In a 2018 survey of 17,000 ''JoJo's Bizarre Adventure'' fans, ''Stardust Crusaders'' was chosen as the third favorite story arc with 17.3% of the vote. Its battle between Jotaro and Dio was chosen as the favorite fight of the series.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Sherman |first1=Jennifer |title=JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Golden Wind Anime Listed With 39 Episodes |url=https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2018-08-16/jojo-bizarre-adventure-exhibit-survey-reveals-fan-demographics/.135481 |website=[[Anime News Network]] |date=2018-08-16 |access-date=2020-09-27}}</ref>

Reviewing ''Stardust Crusaders'' for [[Anime News Network]], Rebecca Silverman enjoyed seeing Part 2's Joseph team up with new protagonist Jotaro and was impressed that Araki was able to keep Dio out of Part 2 completely, only to bring him back for Part 3.<ref name="p3v1">{{cite web |url=https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/jojo-bizarre-adventure/part-3/gn-1/.109391 |title=JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Part 3 GN 1 - Review |work=[[Anime News Network]] |date=2016-12-03 |access-date=2020-09-13}}</ref> She initially called the replacement of Hamon with Stands both understandable and a bit of a disappointment, since the "insane physical abilities and contortions" caused by the former were a large source of the fun in the first two parts.<ref name="p3v1"/> However, Silverman would go on to describe later Stand battles as exciting and creative in subsequent reviews.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/jojo-bizarre-adventure/part-3/gn-2/.126070 |title=JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Part 3 GNs 2-3 - Review |work=[[Anime News Network]] |date=2018-01-11 |access-date=2020-09-13 |quote=...Polnareff's arc is good, battles are exciting...}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/jojo-bizarre-adventure/part-3/gns-4-5/.127337 |title=JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Part 3 GNs 4-5 - Review |work=[[Anime News Network]] |date=2018-02-11 |access-date=2020-09-13 |quote=Some great Stands used in creative ways...}}</ref>
