New PV.https://youtu.be/-_kqphBRMRo?si=0t6TJlRZqBG3rp-r
I don't care anymore. It's over.
I'm ready
If only Chainsaw Man had ended thirty years ago, because Araki could've fixed Part 5's ending if he copied what worked about CSM Part 2's ending without the parts that didn't. It's already established from King Crimson's first appearance that Diavolo wouldn't be able to defeat Team Bucciarati if they faced him all at once, meaning that even if the arrow was introduced to the story to bait Diavolo into the open, he could've been beaten without the need for anyone to power up.As is, SCR's mutation ability is introduced to briefly raise the stakes, but then becomes a background detail that doesn't impact the rest of the fight. If Diavolo had already been fought and killed by the time the mutations started, or during their early stages, the manga could then focus fully on the heroes dealing with the terrifying prospect of the SCRalypse. Giorno eventually obtains the arrow and unlocks GER, allowing him to reset his mutations. Concluding that because GER could reverse his body's evolution, its power is to "rewind" and he can use it to rewind himself to a previous point in time. Standing over the also unmutated (since he died early) dead body of Diavolo, Giorno looks around at the nearly unrecognizable life forms around him. He looks at Mista and Trish, who he wouldn't be able to identify anymore had he not been watching their transformation. Giorno feels his body straining from the power of GER, and understands that if he doesn't decide what to do within the next few minutes, he'll lose the power and be unable to stop himself from permanently transforming along with the rest of the world. cont.
>>287054288Giorno reflects on how petty and irresponsible Polnareff was to intentionally risk wiping out life on Earth just because he couldn't stand the idea of failing to beat Diavolo, and how irresponsible of him it was to offer the arrow to a group of kids when the only Requiem stand he's ever known is uncontrollable and causes the replacement of all life on Earth. He reflects on how SCR's mutation ability is reminiscent of Gold Experience's power to create and enslaving life forms, then kill them once they're done being used, and starts to question if his own god complex is really so noble. Accepting that the poor choices he made on his quest for power had contributed towards the apocalypse, Giorno decides to "rewind/reset" himself to earlier in the year, either to the day he decided to trespass on Luca's turf, resetting his involvement with Passione to zero, or to when he awoke Gold Experience, setting its use to zero.In place of Sleeping Slaves would be an arc where Giorno meets up with Team Bucciarati and uses his knowledge from Part 5 to convince them that he was their comrade in an alternate timeline and that he knows how they can prevent the death of an innocent teenage girl in the future by having her delivered to the Speedwagon Foundation for protection. In the end, Giorno uses his social skills, not his magic powers, to be a hero. Bruno vows to save Trish, even if he'll have to betray the gang and risk his life to do it. Giorno will likely never know the results of his actions here, but what's important is that he did the right thing. Giorno returns to being a hardworking high school student, possibly opening up more to his peers, now understanding that education will get him further in life then chasing a mafia movie fantasy, and that education will give him real opportunities to help the people of Italy way more than he could as a power hungry criminal dictator.cont.
>>287054345This ending would teach actual lessons and offer food for thought instead of being empty wish fulfillment. It would turn the message of "not only the results matter" from a shallow platitude into a theme that is actually supported by the narrative in a meaningful way. Finally, it would give Giorno a proper character arc, rather than a static brat who refuses to grow up and gets rewarded with fortune and glory for it
Jojolion and SBR Japanese volumes are all sold out at my KinoKuniya when I went in today. How long is the hype going to last?
>>287054288
>>287054288>turdmanGo back to your general nigger
>>287054288>>287054345>Diavolo wouldn't be able to defeat Team Bucciarati if they faced him all at onceNo, he might've had to risk his IDENTITY getting exposed if they faced him all at once.>the finale needed MOAR CHARIOT REQUIEM>muh time travelGay and retarded.
>>287054709Teenagers who idolize Demji will grow into more well adjusted adults than teens who idolize Giorno.>>287054766There's no reason why his identity would be at risk if he could kill them all at once, but he can't and he knows that.
>Jojo thread turns into chainsawfag bait thread immediatelyWe need to let these threads die until we get actual news about the anime. Stop coping.
Watching Part 3Does he even DO anything besides die later?At the Justice fight and it's just the Polnareff Show by now with Jotaro coming in to clean some messes (not complaining)
>>287056274Spoilers: Death 13 is his last big moment until they arrive at Dio's mansion.
SHIZAH would dogwalk most characters if he had a stand.
>>287056523He'd end up with something like hermit purple though so it wouldn't be that useful.
>>287056523>iflol. lmao even.
>>287056581He would probably get something more like Soft and Wet because of his stronger Italian genes.
>>287056274Rewatching Part 3 so many years removed from 2014, it is so funny how the beginning up till Pakistan is uploaded with QUALITY before it becomes on par with Part 2 in the terms of quality
>>287056837he's getting Tubular Bells at best
>>287056483A lot of people love Death 13, but that arc just pissed me off.>Sorry Kakyoin, we know you've traveled with us for several weeks now and have saved our lives multiple times, but we are absolutely not going to trust you at all about this baby.Honestly, I just hate how the main cast all act like complete retards throughout part 3, completely oblivious to extremely obvious danger at every turn despite knowing damn well that they have assassins on their ass.
>>287057064The funniest thing about Part 3 is how unlike 1 and 2 they're under constant danger all the time, not a moment to rest, said numerous times how they should never be alone.But constantly want to wander off by themselves while trusting very little within the actual group. It is the JoJo part that truly feels the most 80s/90s Shonen Jump series ever, for good and bad.
>>287057109>Hmmm, this town is covered in a mysterious fog and filled with shambling corpses.>Welp, time to go check into a hotel here lol.You can definitely feel Araki trying to find his footing all throughout the first half, and even some fights in second half feel contrived, like Joseph just deciding to touch Bastet. At least there's a bit of fun payoff for shit like this when Polnareff takes one look at Alessi and instantly says, "oh yeah, this weird fucker is definitely the stand user."
I miss how much downtime part 3 had. Like they'd spend half the episode just setting up a threat or traveling somewhere, or just doing mundane things like checking into a hotel. Really make the time passage feel real.
>>287057407No other part really makes you feel like you're going on a grand adventure quite like Part 3. Too bad it was the last part to be set in multiple countries.
For me, it's Part 4.
>>287056274he does a decent amount of things during the trip arc before egypt >Fought against tower of gray >Helped Polnaref against hanged man >Minor assistence against wheel of fortune >fought against lovers >fought against death 13in fact he is more a bro to polnareff than jotaro. Also there is just one fight polnareff won without help before egypt and it was Devil. It just that Polnareff personality stands out more.
Now that the main focus is shooting instead of just punching, I hope DP actually adapts Araki's shooting blitzing when he draws someone opening fire. Its a sick way to adapt recoil, maybe it would look something like vid related.https://youtu.be/UajTvU3sjrY?si=3LI6xHn1HUHiRNne&t=37
>>287057747dis lil nigga look so tuff frfr
>>287054179Nigger it's barely been a week. How do even you survive normal release schedules?
>>287058416I don't know why, but I always love how when Jojo characters fire multiple rounds, the shots always come from completely different places.
>>287058416Jolyne not being the one to kill Pucci is the only bad part about 6.
>>287054179This.
>>287054158jodio is so cool
>>287058455Seriously, even when its just the bullets flying like a plane squadron its just so cool
>>287058539It's kind of peak honestlythe joestar v. dio rivalry ends not with either of them but their "disciples" duking it out, allegorically showing whose ideals and impact on the world is stronger or something
It's live.https://abema.tv/now-on-air/animejapan-red
BATCH 1 RELEASE CONFIRMED! OCTOBER 2026! Episodes 2 to 6-7
>>287060101October?! Well at least it's coming out this year
>>287060101>>287060119The stream just started, they haven't said anything about the release schedule.
>>287060119anon...
NEW EPISODE TOMORROW
NEW EPISODE YESTERDAY
>>287060069> not available in your areaguess ill die
>>287060232https://www.twitch.tv/monkeyballztmhere, the dude hosting it is super annoying but hey its something
>>287060253bless
are they actually releasing it by stage batches
> its coming in 2026!what a fucking worthless announcement, WHEN in 2026?
>2nd Stage in 2026Thanks.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TWw06YDOQy0
>>287060324Looks like more panning still shots for action scenes. I imagine its only gonna get worse as the series goes on.
>Stage batch releaseAre they just going to drop the stage stuff when they get the later ones since they are like more than half the manga
>>287060119Can't believe I fell for the bait...But at least it's confirmed to be on 2026
>>287060332The first trailer looked like cheap animation also so who knows. This is the part of anime that should be cheap. Save the budger for Scary Monsters and Mandom
>>287060324>>287060312>>287060303>>287060302Literally >>287060101 either we get batches like this or we get one episode every few months.>>287060355Obviously. The Neflix executives are asking for the stage release now because they don't know what happens later.
>>287060355>3 hour 8th stage episode into a 20 minute 9th stage episode
What the fuck is happening with this franchise man
Netflix is schizophrenic
Did netflix just not see how badly everyone reacted to the part 6 batch situation + how it utterly and completely killed the hype for the show? Why the fuck would they do it again but even worse by not giving out the next episodes actual release date?
What if they just cut a bunch of shit and turn every stage into a 48 min ep kek.
I don't GET IT. How come every other anime in Netflix gets to have the usual weekly episodes but JOJO's release schedule has to be so weird?????
You guys just don't understand, this is masterful marketing from Netflix.
>>287060433This is the most likely outcome, I remember SBR being super long during storytime, so they probably decided on this format for a more comprehensive storyline
We're getting SBR in Katanagatari's format lmao fucking kill me
So, you JoJo fans wanted weekly episodes?Well we combined the BEST OF BOTH WORLDS!>Instead of big batch releases once a year, we will make smaller batch releases 2-3 times a year!>Each will cover one stage of the race! Isn't that epic? The anime developers showed us material all the way up to stage 3, so this will definitely not require any change.Steel Ball run will finish in 2030.
You can't hate Netflix enough.
>>287060505Do enlighten us.
>it's real
Please say it's a joke.
You can tell they really want to do a movie for each stage but at the same time there’s not quite enough materials in each stage for a full on movie
How long was SBR compare to other parts again?
Find that Poor Tom poster from the last thread. That piece of shit subhuman who said he was talking to "a chinese 2nd key animator". I want him hanged and quartered.
>>287060417This. I don't even get it from a money perspective. Surely having weekly episodes that last 3 months would keep people subscribed longer than having a batch that can be binged in a week.
>>287060562
Blame the goyim that are still paying for Jewflix
>>287060574>Jojolion is even longer than SBRJesus Christ, if SBR volume already force them to compromise like this, imagine Jojolion, Wonder of U unironically was stretching over like 5 years?
>>287060574Why did Araki waste so much time with Jojolion goddamn.Piece of shit.
Might as well just wait 10 years and hope they remake Jojo anime like One Piece
part 1-5 had no problems with weekly btw
>>287060570Even fucking monthly episodes would make more sense than this
>>287060574JJL is missing a volume.
>>287060433Isn't stage 8 like almost a third of the story?
>>287060605I also remember a stage being essentially off-screen. Around Civil War I think
Reminder that David and Warner Bros are 100% complicit in the shitty release schedule.
>>287060574>jojolion anime will end in the early 2040s
>>287060621>He think there will be Jojolion anime
>>287060594That was before Netflix show up and thought dropping it in sets will 100% won't kill the hype
>>287060618Yeah, idk why it’s all on Netflix, Warner Bros and David Pro are the one accepting the dealWhich make me wonder, who funded Jojo anime before Netflix took over?
Honestly I think the worst part is that they waited until the first episode was out to announce this shitty batch release system was going to be implemented. I wonder how many people got jew'd by netflix when they subscribed thinking it'd be a weekly release?
>>287060621>most og part 1 readers will be in some kind of nursing home/hospital care by the end of the jojolands adaptation
>>287054373why are americans obsessed with everything having a 'lesson'? is it some kind of holdover from saturday morning cartoons?
So it's over and there is no point in waiting because it's in batches and not weekly
Well at least we got like 2 days of hype with first episode, better than nothing
>>287060663yeah, no reason to expect anything soon
I told you it's september, that plebbit leak was real
>>287060671nigga literally nothing would be better
I feel sick. Why would they do this? For what purpose?
>>287060703To milk Netflix subs
Why did they kneecap themselves like that because in a better world they would've dropped Netflix following part 6
>>287060574It's amazing how jojolion had so much but said so little. you could cut 80% of it and nothing would change
>>287060662Araki puts lessons into every part. I don't know how you can call yourself an anime/manga fan while believing that only Americans like lessons. Sounds like American exceptionalism to me.
>>287060710That's insane, I don't understand. How much money is enough? Is there any way this will change and they will release it weekly?
Kek, the animator wasn’t lying after all, they deadass don’t know when to drop new episodes
>>287060710> Could get people hooked by a monthly release schedule with minimal complaints> Instead don't even give a prospective release month for the next episode, stage batches probably months apartWouldn't that just make most people cancel their subscription and just wait until the whole series is out? I wouldn't want to sub to a streaming service if I knew I was only going to get a handful (at best) of episodes to watch every few months with basically no proper scheduling set out.
stage release is so baffling to me because they're so wildly different in length
>>287060746Tell that to the CEO because those people never seem to think in real world logic
>>287060736I doubt it, these thing are decided beforehand with contracts, even if they want to drop it now, it’s likely that they haven’t finished all episodes
>Part 7 fans experiencing 0.1% of the pain Stone Ocean fans feel on a daily basis
My weekend is ruined.
>netflix just raised their subscription prices a few days agoWhat is this strategy called?
>>287060758I'd assume that as it goes on the 'stages' will be made up of multiple episodes, presumably released in one batch at a time rather than one episode at a time.But who knows, with the schedule being so retarded and vague in the first place.
>>287060758That’s why I genuinely think they wanted to gun for movie format, it’s the new trend for anime. But at the end of the day the stage in SBR are not made for movie format
>>287060774>What is this strategy called?Shameless
>>287060746Average viewers would be too lazy to cancel and reopen subscription every time so they'll just sub and forget.
>>287060769This…
the events shown in that 2nd stage teaser only show stuff from the boom boom family arc, that would only be 2-3 extra episodesdoes it mean they are doing another 40 minute thing?
>>287060779haven't reread SBR in a minute but wasn't the last stage literally just Johnny chasing AU Dio? It's one episode of content at best. Are they seriously thinking they can make people wait for one episode in, I dunno, November 2028?
>>287060736Piracy. Its the only way.
>>287060794My bet is yeah Patlabor is stretching its new series across 3 fucking movies Jojo might as well cash in on anime being monthly now
>>287060433Don't even fucking joke
>>287060605That's why he said>>287060433>a bunch of shit
>>287060793>Girl prison >No gay scenes Araki wasn't even trying.
reminder that an anime with a 6 movie (basically double length episode) sequel in 2019 still hasn't been completed. see you all for D4C in 2030
>>287060798It’s dio vs Johnny and cleaning up the corpse final resting place, it’s 2 episodes if you don’t want to png slide show the last time stop, but yeah, it’s not really worth the hassle since you rearrange some things to just be an episode and the ending on the boat doesn’t need to be fancy either
>>287060806No the three movies are the OVAs made into three movies
>>287060818It's not fair.
>>287060549I don't think it's real after this. 11 episodes would easily cover stage 2 and 3 but they only mentioned stage 2 as its own batch in 2026.
>>287060817>no gay scenesJolyne raped several women.
We've gone from 2 parts in one season to this.
>>287060841You kid, but I was hoping for at least Gwess to be prison gay for Jolyne. She was cute too, could have been an alright addition to the crew.
I only remember Stage 2 being a bunch of filler during storytime, with the highlight being Mountain Tim and Devil’s Palm
>>287054997Wrong. Diavolo himself is confident he'd win, the problem was that someone could escape while the others are being slaughtered and Diavolo wouldn't be able to stop them.
So it really was some horrific third thing after all.
>Jojo unironically got the Fate/Strange Fake treatmentAt least F/SF got released weekly later on
>>287060854Netflix and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race
>5 years since stone ocean>they don't even have the second episode ready yet
Hehe *shrugs shoulders*Who knows
Well I just don’t fucking care anymore I guess, it will come when it come
between this and other bad news today I am seriously contemplating suicide
>>287060920It should have been out by now, it's been so long these people have no excuse.
>>287060863Ermes was regular gay for Jolyne. fem!Annasui would've been the same if Araki wasn't a coward.
I just know the finale will be KINO for the remaining 12 people that still remember the series exists in 2028
>>287060928>other bad news todayDon't hurt yourself, what are you talking about?
>>287060794also the last stages take up a bunch of chaptersdoes that mean we will get a 3 hour long movie for the finale?
>>287060324Nice still.
>>287060793>she's hiding a ballpoint pen somewhereWhat did Araki mean by this?
>take so much time with the release only to achieve the same shitty quality as your average seasonal animePeak...
>>287060962Later 'stages' will probably just be multi-episode batches. Episode 1 was titled as a 'special broadcast' as it is, so the other eps may have varying lengths.
>>287058539Nah, pucci being unable to escape his sins all the way into the new world is peak.
>>287060324Can't wait for Steven's wife's boyfriend Mountain Tim to show up.
>>287060562it's the second longest part.
Releasing 1 fucking episode and then having the next batch of them come 6 months later is so fucking greedy holy shit. They clearly wanted people to subscribe thinking that they would be able to watch more episodes and just rugpulled the whole thing.Well, pirates won again so this should teach people not to waste their money on shit services. I know I've watched every netflix series I wanted for free and will do in the future as well
>>287060974>tactical sharpie up pooperJ... Jorin, I kneel...
>>287060593are you retarded, why would they remake Jojo?
>>287060938Mnn... Maybe it's time I read this again. Fuck comphet writing.
>>287060758Also, isn't only first stage that's fully race oriented? after that it's just Johnny and Gyro riding across the continent with other side characters and antagonists chipping in.
>>287053452>Be Netflix>Pay WB for JoJo rights after Golden Wind's explosion in popularity>Decide to batch release Stone Ocean per season(except in Japan where it still released weekly)>Fans cry how the the release model sucks and inhibits the growth of fandom>Steel Ball Run>Pisses off weekly release and batch release fans doing neitherWhat the fuck goes on in those production committee meetings?
>>287061020The last stage too and most of the ones in between have a short race section to the finish line, but mostly yeah.
Wow, Japanese fans are vocal about Steel Ball Run's release schedule and they are not happy. They're discontented with the lack of clear release date and the weird stage-based format. I guess they were at least hoping for another ~12 episodes batch. There's even a petition that's already garnered thousands of signatures to have the release schedule changed. Obviously that won't happen but it shows how unhappy they are.
>>287061027>Fans cry how the the release model sucks and inhibits the growth of fandomWho cares? Especially when it was a success regardless. Golden Wind brought up the worst of the fandom
It's because jojo is gay, isn't it... Fucking america land of homophobes.
>>287060928
Might as well just talk about which studio would you want in charge of the Jojo remake in like 30 years
>>287060324Joni is so cute
>>287061010Don't expect too much, but Araki always throws in the occasional hints.
>>287060324One positive thing about this trailer is that they make Johnny slimmer, as he should be
>>287060574>JJL that long when it served no purpose and amounted to nothing
>>287061065>https://trends.google.com/explore?q=%2Fm%2F013347&date=all&geo=WorldwideYou call a brand that was only getting popular year over year suddenly decrease after Dec 21/Stone Ocean release a success?
>>287061133Hey, the first half of Jojolion was pretty fucking good, most people agreed that it was good until Vitamin C
>>287060332To be fair, the first trailer looked like shit but the actual episode wasn't bad, animation-wise. I don't know why they seem to cut the trailers like this.
so like, can we actually rule out this just being a rebranded batch? they haven't specified if it's gonna be another not-OVA, just that stage 2 is dropping eventually™ this year
It's all for the good of the horses to me. I don't want to imagine the QUALITY on a weekly schedule. I can't find it in me to really care that much, I've read it already, I can wait.
All this just to look worse than the phantom blood anime lol
>>287060445You could almost say it’s….
>>287061282very odd!
>>287061134>ruins the anime the moment they pick it up
>>287060647>Honestly I think the worst part is that they waited until the first episode was out to announce this shitty batch release system was going to be implementedThis amusingly makes me think they knew people were gonna hate it, which means they probably are on some level aware of what happened with Stone Ocean
>>287061303What’s the advantage with the batches.
>>287060818Oh man people definitely completely forgot about that show
>>287061248The horses already looked like shit in the first episode, and there were multiple 3dcg heavy shots. If that's the best they can do with the FIRST episode, I can only imagine how much worse it'll get.
why couldnt they just animate everything and then drop it weekly or monthly... its better in a financial sense and animation wise too, instead of this retarded ass shit where the average viewer will just drop their netflix sub until its back on
>>287061265It looks fine though
>>287061316It makes shareholders VERY happy seeing the boost in subscriptions from each batch that all conveniently line up with the end of the fiscal quarter.
>>287061346looks worse than the part 5 first few eps and that was weekly.
>>287061348But why pick on Jojo specifically? Netflix produces other anime and releases them weekly without issue
>>287061095DavidPro may not give Jojo the best animation, but it really feels like they get the essence of it. Not sure what other studio could do it without it feeling like that old Stardust Crusaders OVA.
NETFLIX RUINED STEEL BALLS
At least Stone Ocean's batch release was clear. Their current communication is beyond retarded.
>>287061364Probably, ironically, because Jojo is their flagship anime, they need to stretch Jojo out for as long as possible as they have barely anything else as popular to get people to sub
>Miraculously managed to recoup all the hype and goodwill back after the SO fiasco>Piss it all away with an even worse release schendulePlease someone explain to me what's Netflix plan here
>>287060769it was your choice to become a part6fag
>>287061418Not like being a part7fag is any better rn
>>287061396......Wouldn't going weekly stretch those subscriptions better? Doing batches just mean that those only in for Jojo would just leave, unsubscribe, and come back for Jojo. As opposed to weekly, where people may sift through Netflix's catalog and get hooked while waiting for their Jojo fix, becoming more permanent customers.
>>287061488Who fucking know, it’s clear that it have to benefit them somehow, we don’t know, since they do this to all of their exclusive show
>>287061488Maybe, but with batches they can manipulate the quarterly shareholder reports to show a massive boost in subscribers. Weekly releases will give them a stable subscriber base, but nothing they can manipulate shareholders with.
normies are subbed to netflix anyway, nobody subs just for jojo
>>287061567>>287061582God corporate logic may as well be alien.I genuinely can't understand it from the perspective of a consumer, and maybe that's alright.
>>287061042big if true
>>287053452Netflix here (Jewish producer).We decided to do this unorthodox release schedule because we know that this part of JoJo is disproportionately straight and white. Furthermore, we want to frustrate the goy and break their spirit snd make sure they go to die for us in Iran.
>>287061364No they don't. There isn't a single Netflix produces anime that releases weekly. Netflix only had the distribution rights for the ones that released weekly, but was not the producer.
Breaking: SBR will release in batches which are divided by the stages.So there will be 9 batchesNext stage release date : 2026
I can’t fucking believe this mf is right
>neftlix trying its best to remove all hype from Jojo ever since it reached its peak in popularityI really hate them
>>287061364The real problem is the director not Netflix. They spent a chunk of their budget and time animating horses for 1 episode. It's the same shit that happened to Uzumaki where episode 1 was great but the remaining episodes is shit. You never see this happen in other anime or show.
I HATE IT
We have to do something about this. Something big
>SBR top 5 in most countries>Means absolutely fucking nothingJUST FINISH THE FUCKING SHOW AND RELEASE IT WHEN IT'S DONE YOU NIGGERSYOU DID THIS FOR YEARS UNTIL NETFLIX TOLD YOU TO JUMP OF A BRIDGEAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>287061859Tank their stock market price.
Well, at least we have monthly JOJOLands between the batches.Sorry for the animeonlies.
>>287060774it's called "hahahah capitalism fucking rocks"
>>287061868It's 93. Lets target 75
>Netflix Anime head is a manga purist and is using dogshit releases schedules to convince people to read itonly thing that makes sense at this point
>>287060897Modern media making companies are so fucking pathetic and pampered.
>>287061859Boycott or something?
>>287060928lol you'd rather die than wait a year to see the full series, I think this is bullshit too but come on
Tone deaf ass tweet
"HOW DOES THIS MAKE SENSE EVERYONE HATES THIS"its good for shareholders
>>287060941You don't get it, anon, if they do this, the profits increase. Even if all hype is annihilated. I've studied marketing, I know this.
>>287061964Explain to me how this shit is good for shareholders if people want to cancel subscriptions?
>>287061840I thought it was Warner ultimatly deciding?
>>287061996quarterly bump right before the end of the fiscal year
Is this a textbook example of monkey paw curse?As Jojolion is about lifting curses, is it going to help Part eight release schedule?
>>287061996most people are stupid and won’t cancel their subscription
>>287060774It's called great, let the paypiggies pay more while i pirate. Same for convoluted tax systems that result in high taxes for the average joe, but more evasion opportunities for smart people. Working as intended.
>>287060324>all those commentsgod, I am mad too, but it's funny
>>287062039I don't care if they do batches for part 8, they got bigger problems with that adaptation.
>>287061996Because you can tell investors you have a batch for a major release coming up and make stock go up.
Valentine gets introduced right after the end of the 2nd stage. This will probably be the batch's cliffhanger.
at least I get to be a little smug about all the secondaries who INSISTED new episodes would be weekly because Stage 1 wasn’t a batch release
>>287062086It's not like we will survive long enough to see Jojolion being adapted, so it's fine.
>>287060774>paying to watch adsfuck subscriptions holy fuuuck
If it wasn't for all the dumb niggers crying about batches we would've been able to watch the entire season by now. "muh community/hype" tards ruined everything
>>287062174>nowMore like, in one year. If you believe the entire series is done right now and they're just holding out on us you are retarded. You'd be lucky if the storyboard of the napkin scene is done
>you know what's better than 2 batches?>9 BATCHES
>>287062217>If you believe the entire series is done right now and they're just holding out on us you are retardedFair enough but even so 1-2 batches at a later date would've been superior to whatever this is. Batch releases are the only redeeming quality of Netflix and now they can't even do that right for some reason
>westerners ruined JoJoironic
>>287061871Reminder to the anime-onlies that they should've been reading the damn manga this entire time.
>>287060593>One Piecewhat happened to that anyway?
It doesn't even look like GuP Das Finale to justify this awful schedule.
This goes beyond mere stupidity, I have to assume some kind of hidden malicious agenda against Araki.
>>287062313Hanlon's Razor, anon. Hanlon's Razor.
I want to commit a genocide of everyone who likes [anime I don't like**] so that the producer class is forced to appeal to me instead, because no one else watching anime is left alive.** Every popular anime except maybe CSM. (t. anime only who knows how Part 1 ends and who will never read Part 2 except for the ending, which is the best shonen ending since FMA's btw) So it's probable that most of you would die as well.
>>287061622Yeah it's totally fucked how manipulating shareholders to get more investments is sometimes more profitable than selling an actual product to actual customers.
>>287060570its not about the money its about screwing over the franchise
>>287061893Capitalism allowed JoJo to even exist since without it Araki would be a starving farmer or factory worker. The real issue is judeo-capitalism and shareholders.
why do Americans hate Japanese media so much
>>287062456>judeo capitalismSo capitalism, period?
>>287062499No. You can have capitalism without jewish influence. Making publicly traded companies illegal would do most of the work.
>>287062509>wants to ban freedomsounds very communsit of you
>SBR is being batched in stages >SBR has nine stages>The entire anime is going to be split over nine periodic releases Oh my god what the fuck is wrong with NetflixWho asked for this
Stage 2 is three volumes. How many episodes would that be? They might be released fairly soon.
>>287062552It sucks even more, because the stages barely matter later on.
>>287062012Here is the likely scenario:1. Director is too ambitious spends most of budget on episode 1.2. Warner shocked at the cost per episode because they didn't sign up for this shit and would not fund it anymore.3. Director is too ambitious so he won't do the next episode because he knows it will be shit like what happened to Uzumaki.4. Netflix calls them both, "Hey guys is Jojo ready yet?"5. Warner/Director says "Uhh yes"6. Netflix sees it's only 1 episode. *scratches head. 7. The 3 parties are now trying to make a deal on how to finish this shit. That's why the director literally don't know when is the next episode.Now I'm not defending Netflix but let's make it logical. If it was all about money, Netflix would've made their top anime/shows into weekly or monthly release. The very least thing they did was a staggered released with clear schedule.
is there no new episode this week?
>Get into JoJo after part 5 anime already ended>Get pissed that part 6 didn't release weekly and skip out on it>See part 7 episode 1 was out>Catch up with part 6 over the course of a week, hopeful I'm gonna get to experience JoJo fridays with part 7>RSS autodownloader didn't download episode 2>Check Nyaa manually>There is no episode 2>Check /a/>See this>mfw

>no date yetAlso am I getting the implication right, they have 1 episode ready that being the Devil Palm explanation / Mrs Robinson episodeBut the Boom episode isn't ready yet? It was the worst looking part of the teaser
Netflix is literally torturing me. Steel Ball Run was the last anime that kept me alive. I was hoping it would just finish by spring 2027 and then I could finally get my sweet release. Now I am forced to survive until 2028~2030.

isn't smarter for Netflix to do the a weekly or monthly release? Like if i wasted money on it I would just subscribe to watch the episode and then cancel by the end of the month and then just subscribe again when part 2 is released, then repeat. Are they retarded?
THEY'VE DONE ITA RELEASE SCHEDULE WORSE THAN STONE OCEAN
>>287063439This has been answered multiple times in this thread
>>287063439In shareholders minds, everyone who's subscribing to Netflix will stick around until SBR's over. So if we stretch it out for as long as possible, we can maximise profits!

>>287063645NETFLIXHIRE THIS WIDE
>>287063680So eventually they will have to make a full season?
>>287063580there's probably some, but the amount of people who will wait until it's done or subscribe for jojo months then fuck off is also likely significant in the otherwise insignificant bracket of "not subscribed to netflix already but willing to exclusively for one hype show", but because the line must go up forever they hyperfixate on any demo they don't have already and because the clueless homonculi that make up investor boards can't see past a fiscal quarter you need to pull retarded tricks to make graphs do funny lines NOW at the cost of everything else
Even if they listened to fan demand I have no idea where they gonna get episodes to air, it’s likely they haven’t finished anything but episode 1 yet, and will have to crunch at an insane pace to even get all of it out this yearThat or they delay the whole things by like 2 years

It seems sbr anime managed to make the casuals and people who dont watch anime to watch it. And frieren and jujutsu fans pissing in their pants on MAL created enough drama to keep it alive. So I guess netflix market worked, at least initially. My guess is they want to end it with a movie release

>>287064562How many projects were they working on back then, and how many are they working on now?
>>287060644Netflix isn't even on the production team so they have no say on when episodes are ready either. It's a collective failure on all their parts that they released a episode when they probably weren't close to finishing anything else. Now we get a even more botched batch then SO release with who knows how many cuts.

Everytime people show any discontentment and are sick tired of something, they go there and double down. Retarded politics that are destroying the economy and welfare, making people upset? Let's double down. The culture we are promoting is destroying human interactions and people are trying to seek new ways? Lets double down. People are tired of censorship and freedom restrictions? Lets double down. The elites dont even hide anymore they hate us
>>287065187>Retarded politics that are destroying the economy and welfare, making people upset?The only politics that matter is the one that let's me keep my gun.
>>287065187>we'll double, triple, quadruple down until you like it
>>287062282I don't know how they can even make any excuses that don't just reveal their attention span issues, which is surprising when they'd get through the manga much quicker than it would take watching episodes.

>release first episode unfinished so the moronic fans can buy your subscription>release a teaser comprised of a few still shots, music and screaming with no date at all>everyone will forget about it in a month so the subscription money is safe>never bother releasing the second batch ever as this was just a way to make quick buck during a difficult period for netflixthey will make an announcement during autumn about SBR anime being cancelled, mark my words
>>287065398It's probably gonna be late 2026. If it was anywhere near next month or even the one after that, they would just have a date.
>>287063897>My guess is they want to end it with a movie releaseI'm not sure how that would work since the only movieworthy part in terms of length is D4C but there's still 1-2 episodes worth of content afterwards.

Everybody knows Jojolion is the straightest part but none of the tourists have read it so
Bets on stages "batched episodes" vs stages "single long episode"?Either way Netflix is fucking retarded. They would benefit more than anyone financially from making their popular shows weekly.
>>287065778>stages "batched episodes"Has to be this.
I miss Hellsing Ultimate
>>287065823That one had much better animation than most anime, there is no comparison.
>>287065798Well, I knew netflix would ruin its release either way. At this point I'm hoping for at least that so they can actually include everything. And because I actually want them to include traditional OP/ED sequences.
So, what we got is essentially a batch release, but with less episodes and longer wait? Why can't they wait until next year, and release them weekly?
>>287065878because fuck jojo fans that's why
>>287053452And there were people who said Paramount outbidding Netflix on the WB purchase was a bad thing.No, seriously. How the fuck Netflix took full control over distribution?
Man, even invincible fixed its schedule. So embarrassing!
>>287065936I don't see how thats related personally.WB Hasn't been involved with Jojo since like 2015.I guess one could argue they may be more intelligent with how they handle its release, but at this point I think literally anyone but Netflix would handle it more intelligently.
>>287066025I wasn't implying that this could've been prevented in any capacity, by any merger. Just sneering at the argument against the Paramount whipping out their dick aggressively to purchase WB. The argument being that Paramount won't actually care about IPs they were going to purchase, unlike humble chungus Netflix.
can someone quickly explain what is going on with the episodes and why people are having meltdowns everywhere? is it out or not? i was going to start watching it when a few episodes were out
>2010>Wow ordering these disks to my house is so convenient! What could go wrong?

>>287066149>>287066169Thanks anons. Was it a preview or something then?
>>287066122Dubs of illiteracy
>>287066191yeah a preview came out today. I forgot to mention that first episode was 40 something minutes long
>>287066191No, that's just the normal schedule.The episodes aren't released in a batch, they will be spaced out through the year.
>>287066167Normalfags are extremely piracy-averse for some reason.
>>287061996Nomies like netflix because it has an algorithm that suggests the next thing to watch.Thats the reason piracy hasnt taken off with normalfags because they simply dont know what they want to watch.T. I have family that pay for goyflix despite me showing them how to pirate.
Not surprised. They're artificially padding out the release of future JoJo parts because they don't want to catch up to the manga. After SBR, there's only two more parts left, and JoJolands is still ongoing.
>>287066303I know many ex pirates who enjoy streaming services because "I don't have to install a vpn to watch someething".
>>287066225Ah that makes a lot more sense why i keep seeing the outrage. Thanks for the explanation I kept seeing people mad and i couldn't figure out over what since it was all vague posting. I guess i'll hold off on watching that episode until they figure it out.
>>287062174>if people werent complaining about batches we wouldnt have this shitty batch release that people are now complaining about.What? Theyre literally doing batches.
>>287066270Friend of mine who doesn't really watch much anime was talking about how some co-workers of his claim to love it. When discussing it they asked if he used crunchyroll and when he said he torrents what little he does watch they were completely confused.I'd say its disheartening but I have no faith they weren't just low IQ shonen/twitterfags honestly.>>287066328I don't even torrent with a VPN, since most of these companies never cared much about JP shows. Though that may have to change sometime soon with all the investment the west is trying to put into it to take control.
>>287066318Jojolion is so long though
>>287066367Even if you don't use a vpn you should be fine as long as you don't seed popular shows.
>>287062499>>287062509I propose a third solution distinct from international capitalism and international socialismNational Capitalism
I don’t understand. Why not just start this in 2027 then instead of rushing out the first stage this fucking early. Netflix even had the gaul to raise its prices recently too, what a horrible company. The animators are probably still not gonna get paid fairly after the fact too.
>>287066373That won't stop Netflix from padding it out for 5-6 years.
>>287066391I only seed if I get it from a private tracker. Depends really where I take it from.
>>287060574Will JoJolands be longer than JoJolion?
>>287066441>private trackerNever used them.
>>287060726I mean you could also say that about part 4. I bet you hated milagro man
>>287063390Publically trading companies is usury and should be banned along with loans.Its how jews take over companies.
>>287066373yes but you can cut A LOT from jojolion
>>287066495then no mango
>>287066473Its nice mostly for older shows honestly but you have to keep up a seed ratio. I got invited into one like a decade ago when I didn't really understand how that sort of thing worked and just brutally fucked my seed/leech ratio almost to the point of getting banned. I still have that account though, but since I don't use a seed box I just very carefully use it for one or two at a time to try and boost that ratio. I mostly just keep it around so when/if I want something older I can find it.
>>287066542Why would you? Maybe it’s because I didn’t start on Jojolion until it was nearly done but I don’t see a problem with a lot of the stuff that wasn’t strictly pertinent to the plot
>>287066588With my ungodly internet I could never do that whole ratio thing.
>>287053452Looks like Netflix put Toby Fox in charge of the release schedule
>>287066328Those people could easily use a piracy streaming website, since netflix has all the same quality issues that free streaming sites have.Genuinely its because of the algorithm that people use netflix.
>>287066703>>Those people could easily use a piracy streaming websiteIt's funny, they never do.
>>287066615Its actually not *too* hard at least on the one I use because all new shows do not actually count against your ratio. You just have to seed them for 3 days even if you upload quite literally nothing because everyone who wanted it already downloaded it (which happens a lot). Which is why its actually hard for me to bring that ratio back up even over the course of years. I'm not torrenting in bulk, like some users who just automate doing it for every major show.Usually only old stuff would "count against you", but even then occasionally old stuff will rotate into a "free" period where it won't count against you as long as you just keep it seeding for a couple of days time.Honestly though if you're just getting newer / seasonal stuff, whatever you use now is probably just fine.
>>287066373the only arcs I think it can be cut out are california king bed, shakedown road, milagro man and blue lagoon.
>>287066703>>287066724I think its the convenience of just being able to do it on their TV more than anything. Going to a streaming site on your TV/Game console is more annoying that doing it on a PC, and most normalfags are watching on their couch.Though I guess many these days do it on their phone too disgustingly enough.
>>287066736>because all new shows do not actually count against your ratio.But I'd just use other sites for newer shows.Nah, I mostly get anime from 02 years ago, but I have a fuckhueg backlog, so I barely download (or watch any anime really) these days.

What if this is just a huge marketing ploy and they do release it weekly, starting next week?
This is revenge for how damn annoying JoJo "fans" are on the comment sections of songs on youtube
>>287066829What if all the coping is bad for your psyche? The sooner you emotionally detach from this the better.
>>287066829They will do normal batch release, people will feel relief because at least they won't have to wait into 2028. it's a ploy to make the goycattle accept the batch release
>>287066874I've been trying to not get attached to any fictional media but my mind can't stop doing it.
>>287066763Considering prices>>287060774It being $200 for 10 months it would just be cheaper to buy a mini pc and hook it up to the tv.
>>287063907In case someone is wondering, each stage covers the following arcs>2nd Stage: Ms Robinson, Boomboom family, Gyro's past Oyecomova and Tusk>3rd Stage: Scary Monsters>4th Stage: True Man's World, Lucy's first arc and Catch the Rainbow>5th Stage: Silent Way>6th Stage: Sugar Mountain, Lucy's second arc and Wrecking Ball>7th Stage: Civil War>8th Stage: Pretty much a third of the story: Lucy's final arc, Chocolate DISCO, D4C, Ballbreaker and Break my Heart>9th Stage: High VoltageIf they continue with this stage release format (which I doubt, they're not that stupid), it will be a short batch (relatively uneventful) followed by a large and important batch.
It's just one mad boomer producer being upset about everyone hating Stone Ocean getting batch releases, so they are making it even more fucked up for SBR.
>>287066829I think if that was the case they would say so instead of just giving 2026 as a release date. It’s possible nobody bts actually has settled on a final release date for the second stage
>>287063680Just release it like 7 parts it's not like anyone cares
>>287066829I'd give them some credit, but its still stupid to build up genuine frustration among your userbase.Not that it necessarily applies to most here, but some people who do use Netflix for this would unsub over it.>>287066894>It being $200 for 10 months it would just be cheaper to buy a mini pc and hook it up to the tv.Many people don't think like that though.They think in what leaves their account in the immediate moment, and 20 dollars now vs 200 dollars now is a big difference. Even if that 20 dollars now will end up being more than 200 in the long run.Having the "option" to cancel before it ever hits 200 also helps ease them into making that decision for the 20 dollars.
>>287064281>can't More like doesn't want to tell you that you have to wait half a fucking year
Me when I find Netflix:
>>287066993Could be even more
>>287066670>funny then you realize that this kind of Toby Fox-tier release schedule will probably become more common in video games and anime from now on.
>>287066752>milagro manI love that arc. I wrote milagro man on a 10 euro bill after reading it. I wonder if I'm ever going to see it again
>>287067051I mean very few games release in chapters like deltarune does and it really wouldn’t work for most games especially because live service slop is the bread and butter of the industry right now
>>2870669354th stage will bring back the hype.
>>287066869>comment sections of songs on youtubethey aren't any worse than "people" that write shit like: "anyone 2026?" "music was so much better back in *insert the year the song was made*", "0% swearing, 0% drugs, 100% talent"
>>287066752Again though why would you cut it out. A lot of the best stuff in JoJo is the little moments of breathing room in between big shonen battles. Like it will be very disappointing if they cut down on Johnny and Gyro’s banter in SBR and I’d feel similarly disappointed if they got rid of Shakedown Road or Milagro Man in Jojolion
Feels great!
>>287067139You forgot>FaggotYoutuber brought me here!
>>287067199I fucking hate youtube comments, especially on music videos holy shit
>>287067107true yet I think most games will give it a try soon or later, because despite it and how it sucked people did swallow the Deltarune chapters with no real backlash of that method, so they see it as a possibility
>>287066935Chocolate disco will be a 50 minute episode we'll have to wait 3 months for
>>287066752what the fuck?
>>287066820Lol how does this shit keep happening
Isn't the entire D4C arc like five volumes? You can't adapt all that into one movie unless it's three hours long.
>>287067268Personally i dont have a problem with the delatrune releases considering it is an indie project. 25 bucks is kinda steep for what is essentially 2 paid chapters atp but with the 2 free ones and the promise of more i have trust in tobias
They seriously ruined the adaptation of the best part. Jojo anime should've ended at part 5
>this is the news I wake up to
Sorry guys, it was me, the "every franchise I like ends up getting fucked in the arse someway or another" guy.
>>287067551hmm yeah that is true for an indie project is alright I guess, still the problem will be big companies thinking they can pull that too
>>287065425Haha me too!
>>287066935People usually say the first stage was the boring one but for me was the second stage
>>287067584
mathematically wouldn't a weekly format be more profitable for a streaming platform like Netflix? why would they do this?
>>287053452>>287053793The first episode is out?
>>287067746They want to match American elections with D4C arc.
>>287067798Western media is so ideologically poisoned, that I honestly would believe this retarded theory.
>>287067798Kek
>>287067746My theory is that they only had episode one completed and pushed it out as soon as they could to drive subscriptions
When I first read steel ball years ago I just figured it was new new universe created in Stone Ocean but now I see people saying it’s a completely different universe and some saying it is. Is there any source from Araki himself explaining it?
>>287067846This, and now that everyone got mad at them, they will rush the eps.
>>287067798I wouldn't be surprised desu
>>287066869I would gladly take JoJo fans over JJK fans any day.
>>287067861No im not going to explain it
>>287067972jjk fans dont seem to like their show, they only seem to care about hating anything else
>>287067746I believe they didn't want to delay the release of episode one, but didn't have the rest ready enough for either batch or weekly release so they decided to ''compromise'' with the compromise essentially being a shittier batch release
>>287066935>2nd StageIf that's all we're getting later this year then that's so fucking ass. The story hits it's stride immediately after that stage, and then it doesn't let up until the end. Just put me in a coma until we get Scary Monsters.
>>287067945OMG sooo true and upvote my good sir! Reality is so ridiculous that you can’t even make satire anymore
>stage batchesKikeflix was a mistake. I wonder how the hell they are going to do Jojolion since they can't divide them like that.>inb4 4 years or so between batches so people forget the story and don't notice the many times Araki contradicted himself or retconned shit
WORSE RELEASE SCHEDULE THAN STONE OCEANMORE CUT CONTENTFUCK NETFLIX FAGGOTS.
WHERE IS THE RELEASE DATE LEBOWSKI
>>287067798>Americans and their politics are ruining JoJo for everyone in the worldso this is the power of D4C Love Train...
>>287057109>>287057352I think some of these cases are just Araki trying to make arcs feel like American horror movies with dumb portagonists.
>>287067990I dont want you to explain it asshole I want to see if he actually said anything on it
>>287068198He did and you could pretty easily google it. Are zoomers mentally disabled?
>>287068189But it’s supposed to deflect all the bad fortune from the US and instead we have a hecking cheeto in the white house
Netflix existing has been a disaster for the human race.
we'll see Funny Valentine in 2029/2030.
Why was GW allowed to be weekly, but SO and SBR aren't? Is it really just Netflix being out of touch? I thought they had other series that were weekly, why does JoJo have to be different
>>287067199God i hate that one, they always expect you to know what they're talking about and it's so fucking annoying
can we talk about how even with this shit schedule, they already cut shit out of SBR?>tiny horses>johnny threesome>no iceberg
>>287068250Yea I did and no only shit that comes up is peoples made up stuff and no source by him
>>287068323GW was before the Netflix deal. Despite all the BAWWING over batch releases SO did really well and also not having to deal with Nip TV station standards and licenses are less of a hassle compared to Jewflix
Hnnnng Johnny!! I’m pregnant and it’s yours!! I’m full of your baby!! Let’s name it Steel Ball Run Episode 2, it will come out in a couple months, will it be a boy or a girl?!
>>287068323at least it looks good
>>287068383why are SOfags like this?
>>287062012>>287062715I find it hilarious how low IQ the jojo fanbase is when I see everyone blaming Netflix, someone even insinuating "Netflix forced David Productions to animate in batches" kek
>>287068458>no netflix>weekly>netflix>batches
>>287068383>GW was before the Netflix deal.Yeah, i know that. I'm just wondering if there is a specific exec i can blame, honestly
>>287067746they are financially incentivised to drag this out as long as possible. the longer people pay for a subscription the better.
>>287068458ok jew
JJK is being streamed weekly by Netflix btw. Why Jojo gets this treatment? I wonder.
SOfags got the last laugh in the end.
>>287068553What last laugh? SO began with the Kikeflix batches.
>>287068527cool I just cancelled my netflix subscription. Maybe subscribe again when EPISODE 2 drops in 6 months, or never (pirating like every normal people) Gee what a financially wise decision by netflix?
>10 months per episode>it's worse than Golden Wind quality
>>287068587Yeah, but some fans here actually thought that they purposefully fucked over SO and that they were going to give SBR special treatment.
>See you later this year
>Frieren 10 episodes per 2 years>Jojo batch releasesare animators just getting lazy now?
>>287068604This >>287068323 looks good
>>287068458>part 1-5 no netflix>weekly>part 6 yes netflix>batch>part 7 yes netflix exclusive>2-3 episodes a year
>>287068637>newer mangaka are weaker>animators are also becoming weakerThe industry is ending.
Studios/producers seem to not like the standard TV scheduling anymore. So many anime are doing movies or releasing several episodes at once up front.>>287062309It probably even looks worse than the GuP series. But yeah, even with Das Finale's ridiculous schedule, it's quality does make up for it for me a little bit at least.
>>287068662>DanDaDan, Apothecary Diaries, Jujutsu Kaisen, Vinland Saga, and many others on Netflix>weekly>jojo>batchWhat a cuck
>>287068637I don't want them to suffer ( ;__;)
no one will give a shit about the show even when it gets to the actual good parts (valentine/etc).great job retards
>>287060566Don't believe his lies.
>>287060324Fucking kek, nips are such cucks
frieren was weekly on netflix too.
>>287063680STAGE 8 PART 3
>>287063680Perfect opportunity to turn that into a movie.They saw the success of CSM and DS movies and got inspired.
man fuck sbr, it will take them literally 5 years to get to the final stage.
>>287068782There are dozens of japanese comments cursing Netflix and yet you picked the one that was licking Netflix' dick, CURIOUS.
>>287068392No matter when it comes out, it'll be an abortion.
So what about the openings and endings? No way they fuck this shit up that badly to not include OP/ED
>>287068852Yep i cherrypicked. in my defense the post was so bootlickery i got a good chuckle out of it
>>287068689>AI slop replaces the old guard>new anime looks like pixar slopit's ogre.
>>287068852To be fair japanese people still actually believe you should have to spend 1000 dollars to read SBR in the west or not read it at all
>>287068964Americans are bootlicking cucks but man Japs are a whole nother level.
if you're subscribed to netflix you're part of the problem
Manga chads win once again.Netflix and David can burn in hell forever though.
MangaCHADS? Won.StoneOceanGODS? Won.Part7CHUDDIES? Seething.
>weekly format is fine except when it's JoJoyep, another case of envious Ameritards sabotaging superior Japanese media
>>287069454>StoneOceanGODS? >Won.How do you figure?
>>287069494>yep, another case of envious Ameritards sabotaging superior Japanese mediaBut /a/ has told me for the past 15 years that Americans/Westerners will never have ANY influence on anime!
>SOfags trying to have a last laugh somehowbeing the second worst part adaptation is really a win for you?
>stage 2 in December>later stages are far FAR longerthis shit literally won't end till 2030.
>>287069544Batches or not, the anime came out in a year.
>>287069454But I'm a MangaCHAD and a Part7GOD.
>>287069494Afaik all those anime aren’t owned by Netflix they just have the streaming rights, but Netflix is the producer of JoJo since part 6. It’s fairly unrelated but it reminds me of how AMC entirely owned The Walking Dead and so were free to run that show into the ground but Breaking Bad had a couple production companies and so it was able to play them off eachother to maintain some artistic integrity
>>287069605I see. Could "technically" still be within 12 months time. But yeah.Also this >>287069609
>>287069577>posts the Part that needed the anime to be good>>287069609Bet you're glad you read the manga, eh?
>>287069611>Afaik all those anime aren’t owned by Netflix they just have the streaming rights, but Netflix is the producer of JoJo since part 6.exactly. this made sabotaging possible and that's what they're doing right now.
fuck david pro, they have time for shit like fire force but not for steel ball run.
>>287067268Netfix also has a games sectionAtm its mostly just trashy mobile games, but with the popularity of things like gamespass and ps+ extra it seems inevitable that more and more games start coming to netflix.
>>287069665>>posts the Part that needed the anime to be good....if you had a bad translation maybe
>>287068731you don't want to post a chainsaw man image and talk about cucked
>>287069665>needed the anime to be good>is literally the most popular part in Japan
>>287069836yeah, Fuji couldn't even copy stone ocean's ending right
>>287068189>Trump had his ear shot exactly like Valentine.The Trump = Valentine memes were bad enough in 2016.Imagine whats going to happen when anime onlys get to the ear scene.Or when they find out Valentines goal to redirect all suffering to outside america.
>>287069858Silly anon! Japanese people don't have taste.
>>287069901No wonder they make so many anime, vidya and manga.
>>287068731None of those are netflix exclusive.Jjk season 3 isnt even on netflix yet outside of asia.
>>287069611>Netflix is the producer of JoJo since part 6Warner Bros is the producer of JoJo and the legal license owner of the anime.Hiroyuki Omori was the Warner Bros executive responsible for Part 1 - 5.He left the position before Part 6 started.Netflix doesn't own Jojos lmao. Nor are the the producer. Just the streaming rights, which they obtained only after an agreement with Warner Bros, starting in Part 6.
>>287069573/a/ is retardedI told you guys netflix and crunchyroll would ruin anime a fucking decade ago.None of you listened because you have ego problems.
the hype for SBR will survive through people's sheer hatred for shartflix.sasuga
>>287069879If Valentine was anything like Trump then his goal would be to direct all suffering to outside Israel.
>>287069985Warner brothers is a western company.So yet again its jews ruining things.
Plenty of time to get on reading the manga now, eh, animeonlys? Nothing at all in the way.
>>287069965The real question should be why are Stone Ocean and Steel Ball Run netflix exclusives and not regular like the previous parts, or those other animes anon mentioned like JJK, Frieren, and many more.
>>287068782YouTube admin here. The YouTube commenter who made this post was from an Indian IP.
GWfags had the last laugh
>>287070059>If Valentine was anything like Trump then his goal would be to direct all suffering to outside Israel.Thats exactly what his goal is.
>>287070093This. Read the manga, you secondary doublenigs.
>>287070123these fuckers were so lucky
stone ocean was shit but jolyne was sexo
>>287068527I've literally never been subscribed and don't even know any irl people who are or even wanted to be.Last time I just erased JoJo existed from my mind until SO was completed then watched it by myself at a random point with no one to discuss it with.I'm going to do the same again. No weekly Jojo = No Jojo until I have a torrent with all the episodes with the corrected stand name subtitles.
>>287070114Idk, but if I had to guess its because everything good must be ruined out of spite.
>>287070076well yea the point is protesting jewflix alone won't do shit if people are ignoring the warner jews that have been playing them like a fiddle
Why did DP sell their souls to kikeflix in the first place
The Devil Palm looks nice
>>287070034Nah, I'm right there with you anon. I always got pissed at /a/ for burying their heads in the fucking sand and saying things like that. I'm just shitting on that very concept because it was repeated here ad nauseum despite my, yours, and a select few others cries to the contrary.
>>287070123>anime singlehandedly made GW the most popular part in the series>Giorno has the most viewed theme song in the seriesHe WON.
>look up one of netflix co founders>was born to a jewish familythey can't keep getting away with it
>>287070286>DP selling themselves to kikeflixNot how it works sweaty
>>287070344He does have the best and most memorable theme song to be sure.Part 7 is still my favorite though.I was really hoping we'd get something like his theme for SBR, but at this point I'm just hoping we get anything decent at all.
>>287068852The agenda to ruin japan and its people's reputation is always a top priority for me
Netflix is getting more engagement than ever on social media.Just according to keikaku.
>>287070231I still do think netflix is the worst one tho because the others can be impacted by an increase in piracy.For example just not purchasing anything owned by wbCrunchyroll is only anime so its ultimately got a much lower marketshare.But netflix has normalfags propping it up to watch western stuff too.Even people who arent watching anime are funding this simply by having a netflix account.Ultimately it would be easier to get chrunchyrolls userbase to abandon them than netflixes.So yes theyre all a problemYes we should discuss how all of them are problemsBut ultimately I do think netflix is the biggest threat.
>>287070452All of it is negative though, what does that accomplish?
>>287070500All attention is good attention, though?
>>287070500Twitter engagement is monitized even if its negative.
>>287070539Oh, i see.
>>287070536Genuinely not true.
>>287070344>>Giorno has the most viewed theme song in the seriesIt's not Giorno's theme, you dumb NPC. Giorno's theme is life. Golden Wind is the main theme of the entire anime. The lyrics mention Bucciarati by his name. I don't here Giorno Giovanna in the lyrics. Only "JoJo - Golden Wind" (the title of the anime).
>>287070456You can see it that way but the problem is what if eliminating Netflix doesn't solve the problem. Shady release schedule isn't exclusive to Netflix and Netflix is open to weekly releases, so what if using Crunchyroll doesn't prevent Warner Jews from doing some shitty 8 cour releases. or multiple movie releases for SBR if they want to for. In my opinion warner jews could be the biggest threat rather than netflix, as they're the sole decision-maker, producer, and planner, and not just the streaming channel. They're the ones picked Netflix in the first place. Just my two cents.
>>287070597>All the SBR spamming in Netflix's TikTok comments, which helps viewership>Twitter engagement (>>287070539)>Widespread controversy leading to people who've never heard of jjba checking it outThey're winning
>>287070650All western corporations need to be removed from influence over anime.Netflix isnt the only problem for sure, but it is infact the hardest one to deal with because of the fact that it also gets money from non anime fans.
>>287070746Chat is this tru?
