Hirohiko Araki's long-running action manga began in 1987

Media distribution service JoJo's Bizarre Adventure manga. The service will announce more details at a later date.

Araki began his long-running action manga in Ultra Jump magazine where it continues to this day, 110 volumes later.

Before the current television anime projects, the manga inspired an original video anime series in the 1990s and a 2007 adaptation of the manga's Part 3 story, will premiere on Japanese television on April 4.

Update: Crunchyroll confirmed on Wednesday that it will stream both the first season of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure anime and JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders. Both anime series will be available to all outside of Japan on Friday, April 4 at 9:30 a.m. PDT, one hour after the Japanese premiere of Stardust Crusaders.

Although Crunchyroll's Facebook and forum announcements still say, "Shounen Jump's second longest manga and popular anime finally makes its way outside of Japan and to your shores," the service makes no further mention of the manga.
