"Is That a Jojo's Part 6 Announcement?" - Is This a JoJo Podcast Stone Ocean Bonus Is That a JoJo Podcast?

This week, the Jojo gang discusses the recent confirmation of Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean’s anime adaptation. We give you the initial sales pitch of Part 6, and what the initial implications of a “Part 6 anime” meant for the fandom. For a while, people were worried Part 5 and 6 wouldn’t have even gotten animated! We dispel some rumors related to parts not getting animated, and “skipping to Part 7’s anime”. We also discuss the reasoning behind the confirmation taking so long in the first place.

Part 6 introducing the first female protagonist had come with some pushback. Araki created a part involving a nearly full female protagonist group, which is speculated to have been altered due to troubles with Shounen Jump while it was released. Brian discusses some of the ramifications of these influences on the turns of Part 6, and character decisions that follow down the line as a result of them.

For the latter half of the program, the Jojo gang discusses their favorite stands, fights, and thematic moments within Part 6. They talk about Jolene, and her emotional arc involving her estranged father-- Jotaro Kujo. Tears are shed for the powerful journey Jolene follows while entering the world of Stand Users. Discussion ranges from reasons the group likes Part 6, to why the gang also does not like Part 6! The ending proves to be a dealbreaker for multiple members of the group, and the secrets and meaning behind its unusual circumstance are elaborated on.
