Yes, because despite the jank it's still the same directors from part 5. I just want to see them nail Catch the Rainbow's tension and I'm happy.
I'll still trash talk them and hope for all them to die painfully if (more like when) the animation is shit though
>>
If they spend all the budget on the second half I would be happy, it starts slow and doesn't really get GOOD until Scary Monsters. So especially since there's far less individual horses as the story goes on, some CGI horse jank at the start is whatever
>>
I went on to check who the chief animation director was, and looks like he's pretty good actually.
https://jojowiki.com/Daisuke_Tsumagari

He's no Shunichi Ishimoto but he was the chief animation director of Rohan's "The Run" episode and all the episodes he worked as an animation director were pretty well animated

I found this : https://jojowiki.com/Interview:Anime_Expo_(July_2025)#Daisuke_Tsumagari

>Question 2: Does Part Seven look different from other parts?

>It’s not quite pumped up muscles, but slightly subdued into a thinner silhouette. Araki-sensei gave me a few checkbacks. So I decided on many designs based on his feedback. I had referenced the art of the original manga in my designs, but there was an internal change within Araki-sensei's mind as well. Based on Araki-sensei's current balance, he gave suggestions of that nature during the checkbacks as well.

Put gramps to sleep already. He lost his mind halfway through Jojolion

Jojo is dead and it's corpse is being pupeteered around for zoomers and spics in the most low effort and soulless fashion. It's basically the Undertale or Rick and Morty of anime. Back in the part 3/4/5 days we had multiple threads hit bump limit daily with lively debate. If you told me back then SBR announcement threads would be dead wastelands I wouldn't have believed you.

I like this generator better. It helps create a clearer image of how the stand looks. I also want to know how the MC's stand of the last manga you have read would be? Let's say Goku has a stand ability, he doesn't need a punching ghost because he already fights and has a lot of powers like flight and teleportation. I could imagine his stand as a farm where animals and crops make you stronger; the chicken could lay eggs that give the use a weaker version of the many powers Goku has, the cows' milk could increase the strnegth of whoever drinks it, etc.

that's normal, long, focused shots have details while short quick transition shots are done cheaply. I would take AI at this point though, this is part 7 we are talking about I want it to look beautiful, I dont want to fucking cope

I know that, but I find it a bit jarring there. For example, his eyebrows are unusually thick in the last image.

He can walk on raindrops by keeping them in place and anyone else who touches those raindrops gets cut. He can also detach parts of his body by letting rain fall on him and move them around.

What made them pick purple for his chest stripe, instead of blue like the rest of his outfit? It's not a satisfying design choice.
>>
>>282575051
Stone ocean had one director, golden wind and sbr share the same two ones (who did not direct stone ocean).
Stone ocean also did not have a chief director of animation. While golden wind and sbr both do (although it's unfortunately not the same).
The best stone ocean episode was by golden wind's chief animation director who came back for this sole one.

Literally just go on the wiki bruh

Great. This must be why the SBR PV looks so promising.

No idea, the colors can be bizarre an odd sure, there needs to be consistency. Gyro's theme was green, purple and brown and Johnny's was white, pink and blue. It's an eyesore, like purple doesn't belong to the character

You are basically a main villain. Somehow, someone with a punching ghost that creates pocket dimensions in their pockets will defeat you.

>>282560029
I'm very mixed about the part 5/6 esque art style being what they chose because it's gonna overshadow the art style of the manga which is part of what made it so special, aside from the fantastic story and characters.
>GrandGuerrilla is going to be an active participant in this one, and he has already drawn fantastic fan art of SBR, JoJolion and JOJOLANDS characters
So why aren't we going with his art direction like in picrel?
We've already had this realm of art style in the Kishibe Rohan OVAs, so I dont understand why DPtroons are keeping this art style.
>inb4 because Netflix
Well that leads to my next idea I havent seen discussed yet:
>David Production works for Shitflix in SBR
>Shitflix forces DP to release in 4-5 batches instead of 3 because horse race comic is long
>DP cleverly utilizes this to their advantage and will keep the SO art style only for the first batch to match the beginning of SBR
>DP changes to the art style we always wanted in the next batch to reflect the time during Part 7 when Araki changed to monthly chapters and then the art style, around ch.30 perhaps
>Valentine scene with Lucy will be pure kino
>this is all my own cope and will never happen in reality
one can only hope, bros...
>>282563744
Last Train Home by PMG was already done in SC but I really hope they do another Pat Metheny related song. Metheny's solo stuff was what Araki was listening to during his writing of SBR so it would be really This would be a very fitting song for the first ED, given the general atmosphere of the first arc:

>>282571114
Fuck I wish it looked like that. Not that what we got looks bad but it's just not what Part 7 needs.

This is what makes me wonder if they might be going the way of my cope if they're being more literal about the adaptation from source (I hope so)

>>282584479
The trailer looks like half-assed crap. Seemingly no improvements from Stone Ocean.

>>282584479
It's even more stilted animation than we're used to with Jojo and the teaser at least has 90% zero compositing, it's just flat drawings.

so are we getting an CG opening in this one or 2D? Stone Ocean had shit animation for the most part but at least it had good CG openings.

>>282584884
Depends entirely if the team behind the CG openings is avalaible. It was never about laziness or budget or whatever in this case

it'll probably be structured like Part 3 (2 cours back to back -> break -> 2 cours back to back) if that's the case

Maybe, if Kamikaze Douga isn't busy with other projects. DP's 2D openings for Part 5 were pretty lazy, so it will hopefully be the case.

It's hard to get excited about jjba in 2025. I think the novelty has worn off for me after the slog that was part 8.

Jojo is a worthless property that WB and Shueisha have no idea what to do with. My theory is that it was memed to investors as a huge thing they should be pushing around 2017-2019, which is how the Netflix deal emerged in time for Stone Ocean. However they have the numbers. They know, the fucking KNOW that it has no real pull. It's all smoke and mirrors, it's all third-worlder brazillians posting memes and racking up views on the clips. Pretty much any other big anime gets a hugeeeee western push nowadays. Of course it's not Jujitzu Kaizen, One Piece, Demon Slayer big but I think Jojo fans are in this fictitious bubble where they believe that it's EVEN at the level of fucking Chainsaw Man or Dandadan or even Vinland Saga and for some reason it's just being mistreated. There's no audience. It doesn't exist, there aren't numbers for it, there aren't merch sales for it in OR outside of Japan. Westerners overestimate the popularity of the current Jojo serialization in Japan (it hasn't sold well in actual decades, it's only alive because it keeps Ultra Jump afloat) and they have this fantasy delusion that normal anime fans have even thought about JJBA since 2016. It's Netflix fodder for a reason.

Araki is having a real dry spell with part 9 villain stands. The cats were serviceable but we''re back to boring instakill stands that will have contrived solutions. Key west did not need D4C x Metallica. Smooth operators is interacting with it just like bags groove.

Fighting Gold has mediocre looking visuals, way inferior to the last two DiU openings.
Traitor's Requiem literally starts with a 15 seconds still frame, then shows a recap of the first half, and proceeds to spoil the rest of the story and ending. It's creatively bankrupt.

His only sin is spoiling the McMuffin and Trish stand design, otherwise while not as bombastic as others and sure, it's not the best visually, it does interesting things while being simple like when Bruno turns red in the elevator or the transition to that pose of the chapter cover, not to mention that it has 3 different version
