2012 covers the first two parts of the manga and properly introduces Dio, who is the main villain of part 3 (which is adapted by the 1993 and 2000 version).

I can't say much about the part 3 adaption (other than I know they changed a couple of things and left stuff out), but it's probably a good idea to watch in chronological order, so 2012->2000->1993.

Even better than that would be to just read the manga.

I'm highly pumped for this, hell yes!

So it looks like this covers part 1 and somebody guessed that could be done in 13 episodes. Do we know how long this goes? Would be great if they cover part 2 as well.

As for part 3, in many ways it'll be impossible to top those original OVAs, they still hold up. But hey, tons of Jojo to cover.

Looking forward to this!
If people take to Jojo, there's a lot of ground to cover (I'd be happy - set for years).

Oh ho ho ho ho!!! Early Christmas!!! I love the Jojo franchise and I always felt it deserved a full pledge anime that covered most of the parts. Now finally we can get to see an actual series that might cover all the way to steel ball run. Really can't wait to see this.

I'm so excited to see how this turns out! I'm a newbie to the series only seen the OVAs but those 'bizarre' fights sure were a blast. Hope we get to see much much more as apparently saying their is enough material to animate is a huge understatement.

There's PLENTY of material :D The manga's been running since 1987 ^^

Can't wait for this, I was really hooked throughout the Phantom Blood and Battle Tendency arc's, and I'm saving up to buy the English release manga's which cover the Stardust Crusader arc (REALLY want to support this amazing series), so I know it'll be good. Heck, I'm even saving up for the JoJo PS3 game as we speak XD it's going to be brilliant~~~ <3

You do know that there is an anime already, don't you? Actually even two, if you include the Phantom Blood movie. (even three if you consider the part 3 adaption was done in two parts)
Even if it wasn't that great, it still count.

They're adapting Part 1. Stands won't come till Part 3.

But we'll get a (hopefully awesome) WRYYYYYY. Although I can't quite imagine Koyasu Takehito as Dio. But the guy is remendously talented, so I'm sure he'll pull it off somehow.

This is good news. Definitely watching.

Now that part of the cast (and therefore the characters) are announced it's official that it's going to be Part 1. Personally I'm totally okay with this. Sure it's not the best part since Araki basically didn't have his own style back then but this IS where it all started. It has a charm of it's own.

It also makes sense from a production point of view, since it's by far the shortest part and can easily be covered in probaly 13 episodes.

I'm still afraid that this is going to be all we get. I highly doubt that they will adapt the whole series. Because who would start another 300+ episodes show nowadays? :(
