Differences between the original and the animeThere are several differences between the original manga and the anime version of Stardust Crusaders. Firstly, the anime version omits some episodes from the original and changes their order. This is to fit into a 30-minute broadcast time slot and to make the story flow more smoothly. Also, the anime version adds original scenes that are not in the original, which gives a deeper look into the characters' backgrounds and feelings. Furthermore, the anime version has significantly enhanced the visuals of the stands and the battle scenes. In the original work, the stands were depicted using illustrations, but in the anime they are depicted realistically using 3D models and CG, increasing the visual impact. Also, sound effects and music are used effectively in the battle scenes, enhancing the excitement of the viewers. Characters and standsOne of the attractions of "Stardust Crusaders" is the unique characters and their stands. The main character, Jotaro Kujo, has a cool and calm personality, and his stand, Star Platinum, can deliver super-fast punches. Joseph Joestar's stand, Hermit Purple, has the ability to foresee the future and plays an important role in the progression of the story. In addition, each character's stand, such as Noriaki Kakyoin's "Harvest" and Polnareff's "Silver Chariot", has a different ability that makes the battle scenes more exciting. The stand's design and abilities reflect Hirohiko Araki's unique sensibility and have been highly praised by fans. Music and SoundThe music and sound of Stardust Crusaders are also important elements that enhance the appeal of the work. The anime version uses an original soundtrack created by composer Yoko Kanno, which livens up the battle scenes and emotional scenes. In particular, the opening theme "STAND PROUD" struck a strong chord with viewers and is loved by many fans. The ending theme "Walk Like an Egyptian" also expresses the atmosphere of the work well.
