The tweet confirms the series episode count as well as the fact that it will feature all ‘stands’ from Part 3. Stands are of course the spiritual embodiment of a person and gives them supernatural abilities that some might say are quite… bizarre.
The series is animated by David Production and follows the continued generation spanning bizarre adventures of the ill-fated Joestar clan. Part 3 titled Stardust Crusaders, is a travelogue series that revolves around the struggles with 100 year old vampire DIO and his army of ‘stand’ users.
