JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure’s Greatest Villains Unite for New Official Winter Fashion Collection

JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure is bringing together some of its greatest villains for a new official fashion collection, with designs inspired by enemies from seven different parts of the long-running franchise.
The new “JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure × GU” collection features seven pieces of grunge-inspired clothing, including graphic T-shirts, sweatshirts and cardigans based on characters such as DIO, Yoshikage Kira and Diego Brando.

Created by Hirohiko Araki, JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure began serialization in Weekly Shonen Jump in 1986 and follows successive generations of the Joestar family as they battle increasingly powerful supernatural enemies.

The series has since expanded across nine major story arcs, with each part introducing a new cast, setting and collection of villains, and the most recent anime adaptation, Steel Ball Run, making its debut on Netflix in March 2026.

This is GU’s second official collaboration with the franchise, following its first JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure clothing collection earlier this year, which featured the Joestar heroes across T-shirts and open-collar shirts inspired by 1990s street fashion.

The latest range shifts the attention to their enemies, combining illustrations of the franchise’s antagonists with graphics and patterns inspired by their clothing, supernatural abilities and memorable appearances.
The seven designs are:
- “Diego Brando Graphic T-Shirt” – ¥1,990 (approximately $13 / £9)

An off-white long-sleeved shirt featuring Diego Brando from Steel Ball Run on the front, with the story’s opening narration arranged on the back in a layout inspired by song lyrics.

- “Pillar Men Graphic T-Shirt” – ¥1,990 (approximately $13 / £9)

A dark-gray design featuring Kars, Wamuu and Esidisi from Battle Tendency, styled like a vintage rock band T-shirt with artwork celebrating the three powerful ancient warriors.

- “DIO Sweatshirt” – ¥3,990 (approximately $25 / £19)

A dark-gray pullover featuring DIO and his Stand, The World, from Stardust Crusaders, incorporating the star-shaped birthmark associated with the Joestar bloodline.

- “Doppio and Diavolo Sweatshirt” – ¥3,990 (approximately $25 / £19)

A natural-colored pullover inspired by Golden Wind, featuring artwork of Vinegar Doppio and Diavolo, with their respective names printed on opposite sleeves to represent their shared identity.

- “Enrico Pucci Sweatshirt” – ¥3,990 (approximately $25 / £19)

A blue pullover depicting Father Pucci alongside Whitesnake from Stone Ocean, using DISC-inspired graphics referencing the Stand’s ability to extract memories and abilities from its victims.

- “Stone Mask Feather-Yarn Cardigan” – ¥3,990 (approximately $25 / £19)

A black cardigan inspired by Phantom Blood’s Dio Brando, featuring a small embroidered Stone Mask on the chest that references the mysterious artifact responsible for transforming him into a vampire.

- “Yoshikage Kira Feather-Yarn Cardigan” – ¥3,990 (approximately $25 / £19)

A purple cardigan based on Diamond Is Unbreakable’s main villain, recreating the argyle pattern of Kira’s signature necktie alongside a small embroidered motif inspired by his Stand, Killer Queen.

The graphic T-shirts feature long sleeves, with the three sweatshirts incorporating brushed fleece interiors for added warmth during the colder months.

Both cardigans use a soft feather-yarn construction, offering a more understated alternative to the larger character illustrations found on the T-shirts and sweatshirts.

The collection is available in men’s sizes XS through 3XL, although the XS, XXL and 3XL options are exclusive to GU’s Japanese online store.
The focus on JoJo’s antagonists also follows Bandai’s announcement of its “The Gathering of RIVALS” Ichiban Kuji lottery, which similarly brings together major villains from Phantom Blood through Steel Ball Run in a collection of premium figures.

That lottery includes figures based on Dio Brando, Kars, DIO, Yoshikage Kira’s Kosaku Kawajiri identity, Diavolo and Enrico Pucci, alongside a special Diego Brando Last One Prize.


The new “JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure × GU” collection is officially scheduled for release on December 11, 2026, through GU’s online store and all GU retail locations across Japan.
Online sales are scheduled to begin at 7:15 AM JST (5:15 PM ET / 2:15 PM PT on December 10), with physical stores offering the collection from their usual opening times.
GU will limit purchases to two of each design and color per customer, regardless of size, and no corresponding US release has been confirmed at the time of writing.
