I only watched Baoh by this author, but...

Happy for fans.

Was inevitable, but this is the part I imagine a lot of JoJo fans have been waiting for.

Only question is that with the original producer no longer being with us, how will this affect the successful JoJo anime formula at this crucial part?

More green lips, now with even more grotesque teeth.

No surprise, but will it be on Netflix, CR, Hidive, or that proprietary Samsung thing?

Personally, from what I’ve read of it, I found SBR nigh unreadable until Scary Monsters. I don’t really understand why it’s such a popular arc, but maybe the anime will do it more justice. Still looking forward to more JoJo.

Hell yes, absolutely adore Steel Ball Run, definitely my favourite of Araki's works. So happy to see it finally be animated. Insane to think it'll have been nearly 14 years since the original Part 1 aired when this finally comes out.

Baoh is sick man, love it. You should watch Jojo too!

With VIZ & WB Japan it could end up anywhere.

So did they manage to get James Baxter or someone else to animate the horses? If it's Baxter it has a much higher chance being on Netflix. Regardless, I'm very happy! I was thinking I'd be reading the manga before the anime.

Excellent! Also a handy reminder for me to finish Stone Ocean one of these days.

The horses will be 3D and you know it. lol
No sane animator would want to hand draw horses under tight deadlines.

If it does end up on Netflix, I really hope they do weekly. Doing whole season drops is painful.

Between this and Science Saru's Ghost in the Shell, today has been a good day.
