Around the world, evil spirits are awakening: “Stands,” monstrous invisible creatures which give their bearers incredible powers. To save his mother’s life, Jotaro must tame his dark forces and travel around the world to Cairo, Egypt, where a hundred-year-old vampire thirsts for the blood of his family. But the road is long, and an army of evil Stand Users wait to kill JoJo and his friends… (Synopsis from Viz Media)

The English dub cast include Matthew Mercer (Kiritsugu Emiya, Fate/Zero) as Jotaro Kujo, Richard Epcar (Batou, Ghost in the Shell series), and Patrick Seitz (Germany, Hetalia: Axis Powers) as Dio.
