“
Hello. This is the beginning of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure "Part 8". I made the stage the fictitious town of "Morioh" from Part 4, a story I wrote a long time ago. But this, "Part 8" isn't linked to that story at all. The stage is the same "Morioh" of Japan, but this is a story about different inhabitants. Therefore, even if you haven't read "Part 4" or don't really remember it, or have no memory of it whatsoever, you'll be all right.
I really hope you enjoy it. And I send my regards and best wishes to all of you.

To my Italian readers, it is truly wonderful that JoJo and my works have been beveloved for such a long time here in Italy, one of the places I treasure the most. The world of JoJo is far from being over and I would be honoured if you kept following it with this passion.
A warm greeting.
