It opens with a dance party, characters and Stands dancing together; the book's art director has said Araki drew 16 pages of these dancing illustrations new for this book. Then comes his colour cover art from Part 1, \u003cem\u003ePhantom Blood\u003c\/em\u003e, through Part 5, with pieces made for games, tributes and merchandise. At the back are a timeline saying where each piece first appeared and when it was drawn, and a single illustration of Jolyne Cujoh from Part 6, \u003cem\u003eStone Ocean\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDisc.2 Stands\u003c\/strong\u003e covers the Stands up to the end of Part 5: their stats, what each ability does and how it plays out in the story, and a note on the user. There are rankings too, from most appearances to most kills, Araki's own favourites by function and by design, and a closing section called \"Standlogy\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDisc.3 Araki Hirohiko\u003c\/strong\u003e turns to the artist: his inspirations and influences, an essay he wrote on Italy, lists of his favourite characters and illustrations, and a chronicle of his work from 1960 to 1999.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe case is part of the fun: turn the wheel built into it and the faces in the cover art change.
