It's a melodrama.
Not just a regular melodrama though.
It's super hyper mega melodrama deluxe.
It follows its own kind of logic though, and the creator drops the vampire hunting with magic, for spirit fighting.
But don't get caught up in the weirdness, if you can accept the premise(and then the second premise), it's really fun to watch, because of how overly melodramatic it is.
You should be rolling your eyes so hard and so often, that everything becomes endearing and funny.
Avoid the fanbase though, it's a cesspool, like all fanbases.
Seeing this shit mentioned all the time annoyed the fuck out of me until an user posted a collage of a bunch of weird...

I'm looking forward to shit becoming more off the rails as I get through it. Which season would you say is the best? Seems they're each pretty unique
Jeremiah Moore
Thats what I've found charming about the first few episodes. Over-the-top anime one liners and monologues that seem a little more tongue in cheek than most
Christian Turner
part 4 (season 3) is probably my favorite, and you're definitely right that each is unique. despite having the same 'formula' (monster of the week) the writing, atmosphere and characters make each part special.

Part 2 is and will always be my favorite.
The second you see the pillar men, the show goes from Man vs vampire to absolute batshit.
plus the pillar men have the best god damn theme music around.

I feel like the series got slightly lazy when they got Stands
They were really creative with Hamon fights.

>Is Dio the antagonist throughout the different series?
Some, not all.
>Is everyone gay?
No, despite all appearances to the contrary almost none of the characters are gay and the characters who are gay are almost entirely villains.
>At what point do people start turning into fetuses and dinosaurs and using their assess to battle eachother and other bullshit?
Season 3 is where shit starts to go off the rails.
Brayden Howard
First season is grounded well. Its over the top but in a love letter kinda way. The second season doubles down on this.
Season 3 is when shit starts going off the rails, plot becomes villian of the week but each villian gets more and more ridiculous. The joy of JoJo comes from how straight its all played out and nobody really acknowledges how retarted everything is
Grayson Peterson
Part 4 used stands the best so far in the anime
