Manga Background
Araki Hirohiko originally launched Steel Ball Run in Weekly Shounen Jump in January 2004 as an unrelated story to the series. After it moved to Ultra Jump in April 2005, it became an official part set in an alternate timeline. Shueisha published the manga in 24 volumes between May 2004 and June 2011, then compiled it into 16 volumes from February 2017 to January 2018.
Araki launched the action adventure manga series with the first part, Phantom Blood, in Weekly Shounen Jump in 1986. The second through sixth parts, Sentou Chouryuu, Stardust Crusaders, Diamond wa Kudakenai, Ougon no Kaze, and Stone Ocean, ran in the same magazine between 1987 and 2003.
The eighth part, JoJolion, ended in August 2021 in Ultra Jump after a ten-year run. Shueisha published the 27th and final volume in September that year.
The ninth part, The JoJoLands, debuted in Ultra Jump in February 2023. Shueisha released the ninth and latest volume on September 17.
