*** Even better is that the Justice sun in Great Days (appearing behind Josuke in the opening as the singer belts out the lyric "Shining Justice") [[WordOfGod was noted by the director to represent Jonathan Joestar.]] The one to sing this in the UNIT version is none other than the singer of the OP for Phantom Blood, Tominaga "TOMMY" Hiroaki.

* An understated one given all the stuff that happens in this part, but Jotaro getting his Ph.D in Marine Biology and writing his thesis while in Morioh deserves mention. Keep in mind that a doctoral thesis is a very time consuming and laborious process that can take years to complete, and then add to that the fact that Jotaro had to also deal with two Stand using serial killers, tracking down the Bow and Arrow, nearly getting blow up by Sheer Heart Attack, and nearly being turned to goo by a Stand using ''rat''. When you take all of that into account, you realize that Jotaro managed to get a Ph.D in his '''down time''' between doing all of that.

** During his final fight with Kira, he hides inside a house, only for Killer Queen's air bombs to track him down, severely injuring him. In typical Joestar fashion, he uses a lighter on Hayato's jacket to reveal Yoshihiro Kira with a phone stowed away, snatching said phone and using a raspy voice to kill him with Killer Queen's bomb. Joseph's inherent trickery has passed down to Josuke, after all!

[[spoiler: Kira almost pulls out a NearVillainVictory, moments away from activating the Bites the Dust bomb to reset events and Jotaro is too far away in order to use the The World to prevent him. All hope seems lost, but then Koichi uses ACT 3 to freeze Kira's hand. Even Jotaro was impressed.]]

* After being notoriously plagued with OffModel and poor animation quality for signature scenes like Killer Queen's first appearance, Episode 39 pulls out all the stops and showcases just how amazing David Production can be with a proper budget; notable scenes include [[spoiler: Kira's final activation of Bites The Dust, Reimi confronting Kira and him subsequently being DraggedOffToHell, Reimi finally leaving Morioh after fifteen years stuck there, Hayato's last dinner with his mom, and Josuke's goodbye to Joseph and Jotaro.]] Even better is a final montage showing what all the people of Morioh are doing now that Kira's been defeated; Okuyasu, his dad, and Stray Cat all go to eat at Tonio's (as well as Yuya and his girlfriends), Tamami and Hazamada are bickering over ''Pink Dark Boy'', Rohan's preparing to draw more of his manga, Kanedaichi and Mikitaka are hanging out inside Superfly, and Yukako and Koichi are about to go on a lunch date. For all it's ups and downs, this part gave such an awesome sense of community that it becomes something of a TearJerker to see it end, but all the surviving cast gets to live happily in the town that they love like they all wanted.

** The whole SHA arc involves Koichi taking several levels in badass. Firstly, he manages to disable Sheer Heart Attack, something not even Jotaro managed, and indirectly subjugating Kira to a very embarrassing series of events thanks to his now-incredibly heavy hand. Then, when Kira ''does'' catch up to him, he gets to exact glorious revenge... Or so it seems. While getting viciously tortured by Kira, Koichi manages to get his name from his license, and ''GLOATS'' about it while bleeding out on the fucking concrete. Kira is visibly teary-eyed afterward, his pride battered just as much as Koichi himself.

Despite this however he manages to get in one awesome moment where he saves an invisible baby from drowning. Using good old fashioned Jo Jo smarts Joseph dyes the water with his own blood in order to find her; despite knowing in his advanced age losing blood can be fatal. This moment cements Josuke's affection for him and causes him to accept Joseph as his father.

* Josuke Higashikata has several:
** He beats the daylights out of the serial killer Angelo and fuses him into a rock and puts a sign up saying "put your dog doo here".
*** To initially trap him, he lets Angelo's stand go down his throat, but he swallowed a plastic glove that he tied up inside his throat to catch the stand.
*** When Angelo's Stand gets inside his mother, he traps it by crushing a glass flask in his stand's fist, then ''punching right through her mother's stomach with it'', restoring the flask with the stand inside, then pulling it out and healing her before she even notices anything.
** Then he outfoxes the electricity wielding assassin Akira Otoishi by putting his Stand in a rubber tire. When Red Hot Chili Pepper (the Stand) busts out, he flies into the ocean and gets owned bad.
*** Before that, we have a quick moment that establishes Josuke is on the same level as his father:
---->'''Akira:''' I'll use only [[WithMyHandsTied my pinky]] to defeat you!
---->.....
---->'''Josuke:''' If you're only going to use your pinky, I'll set a limit for myself, too!
---->'''Akira:''' Oh, come, now! You don't need to set any rules for y-
---->''(Josuke'' breaks ''Akira's pinky)''
---->'''Akira:''' [[OhCrap AAAAAAAAAAAGH!]]
---->'''Josuke:''' I don't need to set any rules for myself? Fine by me!
** He turns Terunosuke Miyamoto (uses the Stand Enigma) into a book after returning to normal after having been folded into paper.
** His blind rage at having his hairdo insulted makes Rohan's Heaven's Door completely useless.
** When fighting Man on the Tower, he starts to fall and he can't grab onto anything. He then has to punch the tower so the tower will punch him back with the same power and launch him upwards.
** Has the best hairstyle ever (If you are a big enough fan, this counts).
** He cheated at the lottery and actually got to keep the money (until his mom found out he won and took it all) so he gambled with a guy that could read people very well, cheated at that and won. He IS his father's son after all.
*** Some can argue that this is the gambling equivalent to part 3.
*** Technically the RPS Kid fight was closer, not only including D'Arby's GOOOOOOOOOD catch phrase, but also over the top intimidation-bluffing at the end.
** He (with Koichi's help) drove around a city over the speed of 60 mphs to escape energy draining feet. Then went to the hospital, found the guy controlling the feet, healed the guy's motocycle accident injuries, then beat him up again and sent him flying through the third story window into a fountain.
*** He was forced to drive the bike with above 60 mp/h a woman with child was in his way. His solution: [[http://www.mangareader.net/jojos-bizarre-adventure-part-4-diamond-is-unbreakable/13/79 destroy the motorbike, fly over them and restore it in mid air]]
*** On top of that, when he was coming out of the sewers he was running out of gas, so he hit a wall, flew over it, had Crazy Diamond break a car in front of him open, go over the car, have the Highway Star run into the car, repair the car so Highway Star is trapped, and siphon the gas.
** The first time he runs into Yoshikage, he just got to him from repairing Josuke and Koichi. Now Yoshikage trips up when he wants Josuke to heal him, so he cuts off his right hand to let sheer heart attack stay there as long as needed, but Josuke counters this by repairing the hand so sheer heart attack leaves and that way he can follow the flying hand to find Yoshikage.
** His CMOA is at the end of the fight. After being battered, bruised, bleeding and exhausted by Kira, he finally corners him. And what does he say to him?
--->'''Josuke:''' You've finally... entered the range of my stand...'''YOSHIKAGE KIRA!'''
* Actually, Rohan gets a few himself.
** As the opening of this trailer shows, Rohan's drawing skills ''are'' Godlike, as in [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJhVqzhljoA "draw in an intricate and realistic style with INK in one go, WITHOUT tracing over a pencil draft first" Godlike.]] ANY manga artist before digital drawing will tell you this is close to impossible. The boy has ''earned'' his right to buy Armani, Gucchi and entire mountain ranges like a kid buys candy with pocket change.
** Just as a normal thing he does, he can write into you the command, "can't attack Rohan Kishibe" and it does just that.
** When fighting Boys 2 Men, he loses 2 thirds of his stand through rock paper scissors, but in order to stop the total loss of Heaven's Door he uses Shizuka Joestar (the baby that can make itself invisible) to force Ken to make the losing hand. He gets called out for this cheat, so he accepts to start over and wins three times in a row, fair and square.
** Similar to White Snake, he can make you do impossible feats by writing them into your head.
*** He forced Josuke to fly backwards at 70kph just by writing it.
** After taking his strength, Highway Star gives Rohan a chance to get it back if he gets Josuke into a trick room. He has this to say.
---> '''Rohan:''' I refuse. The one thing I, Rohan Kishibe, like more than anything is finding people who think they're hot shit and saying no straight to their faces.
*** This line was awesome enough to be used as the "No" option for the menus in ''All-Star Battle''. The only phrase the English version could find with the same impact was "Like hell I will!"
** When stuck with Cheap Trick, a Stand that will kill him if anyone sees his back, Rohan uses various means to get out of his house and to a specific spot. Cheap Trick thinks it's the Morioh Grand Hotel. [[spoiler:It's Reimi's street. When Rohan fakes insanity and turns his back to Koichi, Cheap Trick looks behind itself to mock him... and the hands of the dead grab it. For that extra touch of "Fuck you", Rohan notes that he's not sure where the hands take you. And then writes "I'm going to Hell!" in Cheap Trick's book just to make sure.]]
* At the final confrontation, Okuyasu [[spoiler: wills himself to life after getting a hole blasted in his chest and rescues Josuke from getting blown up by Kira.]]
* Koichi deserves honorable mention for [[spoiler:standing up to Kira and his unstoppable mini-death-tank-bomb, Sheer Heart Attack, and evolving his Stand into another Act.]]
** And as apart of his new ability [[spoiler:Echoes Act 3]] can force things to freeze by increasing their weight. Koichi stops [[spoiler:Sheer Heart Attack]] by [[spoiler:making it ''' sink into solid concrete!''']]
** The whole SHA arc involves Koichi taking several levels in badass. Firstly, he manages to disable Sheer Heart Attack, something not even Jotaro managed, and indirectly subjugating Kira to a very embarrassing series of events thanks to his now-incredibly heavy hand. Then, when Kira ''does'' catch up to him, he gets to exact glorious revenge... Or so it seems. While getting viciously tortured by Kira, Koichi manages to get his name from his license, and ''GLOATS'' about it while bleeding out on the fucking concrete. Kira is visibly teary-eyed afterward, his pride battered just as much as Koichi himself.
---> Koichi: Let me say that again. ''Some fucking brat'' got your name!
* Hayato, probably the last example of a BadassNormal in the series, managing to stop Kira's Bite The Dust bomb, inflicting some heavy damage on him in the process using a plant-cat.
** To be a bit more specific, Bites The Dust has forced him through a GroundhogDayLoop several times by this point. He picks up Gatta (host of the Stray Cat Stand), waits for Kira to step out from behind a tree to mock his attempts at changing fate, and has Gatta shoot him. Kira survives this due to [[PocketProtector having put his wristwatch in his coat]], and proceeds to taunt Hayato again... [[spoiler:except Hayato had learned Josuke's phone number on a previous loop, and arranged for him and his allies to meet up a bit sooner than in the last loops. Kira made the mistake of using his real name while talking to Hayato; while Bites The Dust would kill anyone ''Hayato'' told that to, it can't do shit if ''Kira'' says it. Kira's forced to yank Bites The Dust back to its Killer Queen state to avoid being beaten down, shutting off the bomb.]]
* And of course Kira Yoshikage himself.
** "By the way, [[OhCrap I touched that doorknob...]]"
** His entire final battle against Josuke, where he teamed up with the aforementioned plant-cat in order to create explosive homing air bombs [[spoiler:that were being guided by the photograph containing the spirit of Yoshihiro Kira]].
* As a supporting character, Jotaro survives getting blown up and while nearly knocked out from it is able to beat down Kira.
* During the "Yukako Yamagishi Falls in Love" Chapters, Yukako has Koichi trapped in a secluded place. He's managed to get a warning to Josuke and intends to hold out until rescue arrives. Instead, Koichi's Stand evolves to Echoes Act 2 and he's able to defeat Yukako on his own before Josuke arrives.
* Yuuya Fungami, the user of Highway Star, gets one when Josuke ropes him into fighting Enigma's user. Enigma can turn anything into paper, even people if its user can figure out their fear tell. Josuke and Koichi both get transformed, and Fungami has to go through several layers of paper to get to them. The last one? A paper shredder. Fungami freaks out when he can't turn it off, getting himself turned into paper... [[spoiler:Which was what he wanted to happen - as paper, his hand is now thin enough to reach into the shredder and yank them free.]]
* By this point in time Joseph Joestar is incredibly old and borderline senile, it's extremely heart-wrenching to see such him go from a badass to a weak old man. Despite this however he manages to get in one awesome moment where he saves an invisible baby from drowning. Using good old fashioned Jo Jo smarts Joseph dyes the water with his own blood in order to find her; despite knowing in his advanced age losing blood can be fatal. This moment cements Josuke's affection for him and causes him to accept Joseph as his father.
* Meta example, but the fan outcry for David Production to adapt Part 4 since the finale for Stardust Crusaders is a real testament to how well they did and how much people care about this part. It's even gotten to the point where several Twitter hashtags have been going around with fan artists drawing what they think Part 4 and beyond would look like in DP's style. Time will tell if it gets adapted or not, but the sheer level of support is a sight to behold.
** And now that it IS being adapted, the fans are livid with excitement.
*** And as the icing on the cake; David Production is making an OVA based on Thus Spoke Rohan Kishibe!
* For the anime, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NNJ-Q9rJ4xE the return]] of Star Platinum's ''[[ScreamingWarrior "ORA ORA ORA ORA!!!"]]'' along with [[AwesomeMusic Stardust Crusaders]], when Jotaro's fighting Sheer Heart Attack.
** Even better is when it comes back a second time to punctuate Jotaro absolutely [[https://youtu.be/qq0SHf97XEU beating the ever loving shit out of Kira and Killer Queen]].
* [[http://youtu.be/NLZP_z2PxCw The Official PV teaser trailer for the Part 4 anime]] was recently released, and it is truly a sight to behold. You know you've got something good when a 2 minute teaser hits ''over 300,000'' views in a single day!
