Synopsis

America, 1890.

The stage is set for the Steel Ball Run—the first-ever horseback race across the North American continent in human history. With a grueling distance of approximately 4,000 miles and a staggering prize purse of 50 million dollars, the event is about to begin.

Johnny Joestar, once hailed as a genius jockey, has been left paralyzed from the waist down, living in the depths of despair. However, he finds a glimmer of hope after witnessing a mysterious phenomenon unleashed by Gyro Zeppeli, an enigmatic outlaw aiming to conquer the competition.

Driven by this encounter, Johnny resolves to join the fight. Harboring their own secret motives, the two form an alliance and step forward into a punishing adventure—a race for survival.
