JBA: Grimm Vol. 1

Part 1: The Bones of the Filibuster

Part 1 follows Simoun JoJo, a Filipino Grimm who exists in Spanish-Colonial Philippines, who, along with his friend, Elias Zeppeli, tries to deliver two books to the capital to be published to the entirety of the country and cause a revolution. The characters encounter various Stand-Users sent by the friars to stop them. The Aswangs, the main antagonistic faction in the Part, are the friars. This Part was one of the shortest Parts in the series, only consisting of 8 Story Chapters.

Part 1 was supposed to be a drama action-adventure novel that was cut-short due to the writer wanting to write Part 3. It focuses on the idea of hope.

Part 2: Arms of Destruction

Part 2 follows Arthur JoJo, Simoun's descendant, who becomes a Grimm during the corrupt Philippines in the mid-1990's, a hundred years after Part 1. He joins with Elias' descendant, Ventura Zeppeli, and works together with him to usurp the President who is a puppet of the Spanish friars who ruled over the Philippines as Aswangs. It consists of 13 chapters.

Part 2 is a comedy action-adventure novel that focuses on the meaning of faith.
