The town of Morioh is a fictitious town located within Japan were much of Part IV: Diamond is Unbreakable takes place in. While the population of Morioh is small and relative normal, there are several stand users before the events of the series take place, among them Josuke and the villainous Kira. After the Nijimura brothers steal the Bow and Arrow and start using it to create stand users hoping one of them would kill their mutated father, things begin to slowly unfold. After Kira takes possession of the Bow and Arrow, he creates several 'opponents' for the heroes to fight. After a character finishes an important battle, the battle site will be given a spot of importance and will sometimes include a legend and be shown as a relatively important, but otherwise does not effect the storyline.

Summer Attractions

Every year on July 1st, rivers and beaches open up to the public in Morioh. Because of this, the date range from July to August is the season for travelling and tourism. 70% to 80% of the total tourism revenue of Morioh is brought in during this time. The number of domestic and international visitors coming from the Tokyo area or S city nearly doubles the population.

Popular Activities include Vacation Resorts, golfing, camping, fishing, picnicking, yachting, windsurfing, tasting local seafood and traditional Japanese products, and visiting the mysterious underwater palace. All are main attractions that ensure a good time in Morioh over the summer.
