Steel Ball Run, the seventh part of the JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure series by Hirohiko Araki, is set in late 19th-century America and follows the story of Johnny Joestar, a former genius jockey who is now paralyzed from the waist down. He teams up with the mysterious Gyro Zeppeli to compete in a cross-country horse race for a massive cash prize. However, beneath the surface of the race lies a dark and powerful conspiracy. The series brings a fresh sense of adventure and a return to the roots of the JoJo saga.
