| YES!!! IT IS OFFICIAL!!! |
 |
| LET'S GO!! Can't contain my hype. 2021 release date is really surprising. So only like, 4 months? Holy crap. |
| Watched the livestream and was so hyped when they dropped the teaser. Can't wait to see more Jojo greatness!! |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |
| DavidPro about to bless us again with another amazing adaptation. Big hype all around. |
 |
| Oh wow. I expected it to air in spring 22 or something |
 |
| I didn't know it's coming next winter,That's great. Good trailer. Stone Ocean here we go! |
| It's coming a lot earlier than expected. |
 |
| Looking reaaaally nice! And YES! Annasui still has pink hair~ |
| "Could you not talk with me? I'm busy breathing." |
| I can’t believe πππ i am so happy i am crying. Finally the another reason to live till 2022 |
| Winter 2022? Well that was way earlier than expected |
| I can't wait. Watching it weekly will be an awesome experience |
 |
| Can't wait. Gonna be 3 cours I guess. |
| Come on FOO FIGHTERS!!! WHAT IF I SAY IM NOT LIKE THE OTHERS?!!! I'll be spamming that every time she pops up aha |
| "You can't spell slaughter without laughter". |
MegamiRem said: It's coming a lot earlier than expected. Exactly my thought, and the fact that it’ll be on Netflix could mean that all the episodes will be out at once. |

Sorry to burst your bubble, but that's not always accurate. Since it's going to be simulcasting this time, you'll probably see a weekly update there like other normal weekly based releases outside Netflix. |

Well, I would personally prefer it to be weekly and I’m sure the television broadcast will be just that. As for the Netflix broadcast though, let’s hope you’re right. |

| so one of the directors from part 5 wont continue hmm |
| Batch releases will kill the hype, fucking netflix |
 |
| sound director did baccano and fate zero before so I'm hyped. |
 just wanna feel wanted by someone other than the police π« |
| They all look so fabulous in the key visual! Just the way I like it! That PV I watched was lit af! I'm goin' crazy!! |
| The HYPE is real, bois & girls!!! |
| This part is basically a classic JoJo, only with an all-female cast? |
 |
| This will hopefully be around 39 episodes like part 5 had, if they wanna keep the pace of the series good still. |
| How I love a game |
| MY LONGEST YEAH BOY EVER so excited to see my girls animated!!! FF is so cute aaaaaaaaaaa |
  placeholder text |
| Wait I don't understand, is it gonna air weekly or are they gonna drop the whole thing in a single day? |
| I hope this all drops at once and has a dub right from the get-go. That's probably asking for too much, but it's Netflix, so it's not too unlikely, right? Either way, the trailer looks sick! If the entire anime looks that good, it may even overtake Diamond is Unbreakable as my favorite all-time anime in terms of visuals! |
My greatest contribution to this website:  |
| Trailer looks really good! |

| Are these characters trans..... or? I can never get into this series. |

Very masculine looking females and I had to be googling what cis girls mean, I mean come on this is getting ridiculous now. |

The characters are all legally criminals so yeah, they're gonna look tough. What's your beef with strong women? |

This is an example of a strong woman that still looks like a woman. I don't know the intention of Araki as to why he makes his female cast look like men in girls outfits, but I guess that is part of the appeal of this series. |

I don't know the intention of Araki as to why he makes his female cast look like men in girls outfits, but I guess that is part of the appeal of this series. Aight let's break this down. First of all, that pic is a terrible example. It's small, pixelated, and doesn't really prove your point. Based on that picture, the Stone Ocean crew have more "traditionally" (in terms of artistic interpretation anyway) feminine body types and more feminine clothing styles. As for the other remark, as someone who has spent a decent amount of time in drag and around drag queens... I don't think you know what drag queens look like. The appeal of the series has nothing to do with how attractive or unattractive the main cast is. Generally speaking, the target audience is teenage men and the main cast before this season have been entirely male with only 2 exceptions. The main appeal for most would be the fights and powers going up against eachother. The creative ways the main cast overcome their opponent who is on equal or greater footing. The plot too. Also, Jolyne is hot af so like... Sucks you can't appreciate that I guess. |

Sucks you can't appreciate that I guess. this guy has watched 1,2 and half or part 3 and skipped to the part 7 manga only to end up not understanding anything, he gives aot a 10 and everything else a bad review. people like this shouldnt be worth your time, he probably thinks jojo looks gay or something cause it has a different art style than he is used to |
Kazzann said: keragamming said: ”cis” is just a fancy word for normal men and women Very masculine looking females and I had to be googling what cis girls mean, I mean come on this is getting ridiculous now. It ain't. Both come from Latin. Cis meaning "the same as" or "on the same side", trans meaning "different than" or "on the other side". Cis means that your gender and sex match while trans means that they don't. Duncan16 said: Salty-GB said: Aight let's break this down. First of all, that pic is a terrible example.

Which I am not. This was my initial comment. "Are these characters trans..... or? I can never get into this series." Just so you know the second part of my sentence has no relation to the first part, so I wasn't saying I can't get into the series because the characters look like trans. Just pointing that out. I have watch a few episodes of jo jo in the past and the female characters never look anything like these, so I think its fair to ask such a question. Why the author suddenly decided to make his female characters look so masucline all of a sudden. I guess consistency isn't a thing in the jo jo series? I made that comment because I was thinking to myself no way these characters are female. If their lip glass was remove and their clothes were more on the male side, I would n't not even had made that comment and just assume its an all male cast. I have no problem with gays or trans. I do have to admit I was wrong when I said trans in my initial comment, drag queen is what I more had in mind when I saw that image. LeaoQmata said: keragamming said: you didnt even finished part 1, skipped part 2, watched 6 episodes of part 3, jumped into part 7 manga... wtf are you doing? is the art style too different from what you're used to so you use it as an excuse?Are these characters trans..... or? I can never get into this series. I have been told by jojo fans that each jojo series is separate aka standalone, so you can see that I was really trying to see if I like any of these, but to no avail I just can't get into it.

I hear you, but the few episodes I have watch of jo jo I don't remember the female characters looking like that so when I saw the image it really took me by surprise. I think its reasonable that anyone that didn't read the source material of part 6 and look at this image, would either assume this is aball male cast or make the same statement as me. Jolyne does look the best out of the rest, just the face does not sit right with me. I never expected my comment to cause such a mess But it goes to show you how the world has change, many times I have seen persons that I can't tell whether they are male or female(they look like a hybrid of both) and thus not sure whether to call this person a he or she to not mistakenly disrespect them. |

If you are unsure of someone's gender, just use neutral pronouns like "they" and "them". I wouldn't necessarily call your comments homophobic, but they do have a tone to then that would suggest bigotry. Red flags, if you will. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say English isn't your first language, but I suggest that you be more respectful in terms of gender and would hope you don't question people's genders to their face on the street. No one but you is assuming these character's genders. Jolyne, Hermes and FF all present pretty obviously as female with their attire, body types and the way they address themselves within the canon (though I guess FF is a bit iffy in that regard). The lines on the faces are purely an aesthetic choice to show shadow and detail, as with the male faces. |
