1989, Japan. Our hero is Jotaro Kujo, grandson of Joseph Joestar.
Believing himself possessed by an evil spirit, Jotaro holes himself up in jail and tries to figure out what's happening to him.
Joseph visits along with Jotaro's mother, Holly.
He tries to lure his grandson out of the prison, but he may be getting more than he bargains for...

Episode 1: The Magician of Fire (Jotaro Kujo vs. Mohammed Avdol)[edit]

Jotaro rips the little finger off Joseph's prosthetic hand, warning him to stay away.
Surprised though he is, Joseph nonetheless orders his friend Mohammed Avdol to force Jotaro out of his prison cell.
Avdol himself is possessed by one of the "evil spirits" Jotaro spoke of. Its name is Magician's Red.
Faced with the flame attacks of Magician's Red, Jotaro is forced to manifest his own spirit.

The "evil spirits" were actually manifestations of psychic power. Standing by their owners as they do, they're known as "Stands".
With Jotaro out of his cell, Joseph explains the entire history of DIO and the Joestar clan to him.
The evil DIO had taken over the body of Joseph's grandfather, Jonathan, and lain at the bottom of the ocean for the last 100 years.
Now DIO had awoken...and thanks to the Joestar blood in Jonathan's body, so had the Stands sleeping within Joseph and Jotaro.
Joseph explains that, because of this, they are destined themselves to do battle with DIO.
Meanwhile, Noriaki Kakyoin, an assassin sent by DIO, arrives on the scene to attack Jotaro.

You know why you lost, DIO? You made one mistake... Just one mistake...
You pissed me off.

DIO, the 100-year-old emperor of all evil, was finally dead.
Exposed to the morning sun, his body turns into dust and disappears.
In his heart, Jotaro proclaims his victory to all his fallen comrades...
Now, Avdol, Iggy and Kakyoin could rest assured in the knowledge that the battle was over.
Later, Jotaro, Joseph and Eiffel arrive at an airport in Egypt.
It was a hard journey, but the newly forged bonds between them make it all worthwhile.
Arms around each other, they say their farewells.

Eiffel: Adieu, old man! Live a long life, tu ringard!
And you...you're just as stingy as your granddad! Don't you forget about me!
Joseph: I hope we meet again... Assuming you don't hate me by now, you sonofagun!
Jotaro: Couldn't forget a nut like you if I tried. Take care of yourself.

With that, Eiffel returned to his native France, while Jotaro and Joseph went back to a patiently waiting Holly.
And now, the long road home begins.
