Departure (出発(DEPARTURE), Shuppatsu (Dipāchā)) is the first volume of The JOJOLands and the one-hundred thirty second volume of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure manga.
One day, a certain Japanese man entered the Island of Hawaii carrying a $6 million diamond. Jodio Joestar, a young boy living on Oahu Island, along with his companions, visits his vacation home to steal the targeted diamond. What mystery will they encounter there...?!
The JOJOLands is the 9th part of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure series; its 9th protagonist being a fifteen-year-old boy. I consider fifteen to be the age where a person's thoughts for the future are the most vibrant. As the author, my hope is that the protagonist will mature and develop admirably over time.
On a separate note, within this story you will see the name "November Rain". The term "novem" derives from the Latin root meaning "9." The months of July and August were at some point inserted into the middle of the Gregorian calendar, causing November to become the eleventh month.
