JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Is Getting a New English Study Guide
The Joestars are gathering to help teach JoJo's Bizarre Adventure fans English, with JoJolion leading the charge.
JoJo's Bizarre Adventure has ventured into some strange territory in its history. With the latest storyline of the manga, The JOJOLands, introduced Joestar siblings that are aiming to get rich rather than saving the world, creator Hirohiko Araki doesn't appear to be stopping the series any time soon. While there has been a fair share of bizarre merchandise focused on the franchise in recent years, a new English study guide is set to help JoJo's Bizarre Adventure learn the language.
This upcoming release will actually be the third installment of the guide that helps JoJo's Bizarre Adventure fans learn the English language. In the past, the installments had the likes of the Stardust Crusaders, the Golden Wind, the Stone Ocean, and other Joestars across the anime universe. For this latest guide, it will focus on the story of JoJolion, the eighth storyline that gave readers an alternate take on the sleepy town of Morioh. JoJolion takes place following Steelball Run, which in turn arrived following Joylne's journey in Stone Ocean, meaning it will be some time before we see this specific arc receive its own anime adaptation.
