Exploring The JoJoLands: A Dive into Spin-Offs and Related Content

The JoJoLands, the ninth part of Hirohiko Araki’s iconic manga series JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, has been captivating fans since its serialization began in February 2023. Set in the tropical islands of Hawaii, it follows Jodio Joestar, a teenage gangster with ambitions to become wealthy. But The JoJoLands is not a standalone story; it is part of a larger universe filled with spin-offs and related content that enrich the JoJo experience.

The JoJoLands: A New Chapter in the JoJo Saga

The JoJoLands is set in the same continuity as Steel Ball Run and JoJolion, the seventh and eighth parts of the series. It introduces a new protagonist, Jodio Joestar, and a new setting, the tropical islands of Hawaii. The story revolves around Jodio’s quest to become rich, involving a jewel heist and the mysterious “lava rock” that holds great power and responsibility.

Connections to Other Spin-Offs and Adaptations

The JoJoLands is not the only spin-off in the JoJo universe. There are several other adaptations and related content that fans can explore:
