JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders (Japanese: ジョジョの奇妙な冒険 スターダストクルセイダース, Hepburn: JoJo no Kimyō na Bōken Sutādasuto Kuruseidāsu) is the second season of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure anime by David Production, based on the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure manga series by Hirohiko Araki. It is the 3rd animated adaptation of the manga's third part, Stardust Crusaders, following an original video animation series by A.P.P.P. that was released first in 1993 and continued later in 2000.

The series aired for 48 episodes, split into two parts consisting of 24 episodes each.[1] The first part aired on Tokyo MX between April 5, and September 13, 2014, also syndicated on MBS, Animax, and other channels.[2] The second part, subtitled "Battle in Egypt" (エジプト編, Ejiputo-hen, lit. "Egypt Chapter" or "Egypt Saga"), aired between January 10, and June 20, 2015.[3][4] The series was simulcast outside of Asia on Crunchyroll's streaming services.[5] A preview of the English language dub of the first three episodes was streamed on Crunchyroll on July 5, 2014, tying in with its premiere at Anime Expo 2014.[6] The English dub began airing in North America on Adult Swim's Toonami programming block from July 30, 2017.[7] Viz Media released a Blu-ray set of the first 24 episodes, that includes English and Japanese audio with subtitles for the Japanese, in North America on July 3, 2018, with the remaining 24 episodes being released in a subsequent set on January 22, 2019.[8]
