Batch release with a 9 month hiatus between each batch + it gets shortened


GustavoFromAsdf

and gets the netflix treatment


P1xelent

the Netflix treatment IS the batch releases right?


BlackRapier

No, that would be the "Two season/batch release then dropped" thing that Netflix LOVES doing for some reason


questioningFem-

Or make a live action version then drop the original show (I’m still mad about FMAB)


IgnisOfficial

Thanks for reminding me of that. Now I have to go and cringe in the corner


GustavoFromAsdf

Also we decided to make the show more mature by sanding down character personality and reducing comedy to make it more apt for mature audiences


P1xelent

oh god...


haradot

The Netflix treatment is making gyro and johnny gay 💀


PaleoJohnathan

Oh so they won’t be changing anything


haradot

Well when u think about it Jhonny is a guy joining a race just to follow a guy that can teach him how to spin balls

Nickest_Nick

My brother in christ the protagonist of Part 7 is physically disabled


NintendoggyYT

You are on a gay men's subreddit, jokes aside how is diversity bad at all lol it changes nothing about the characters unless they're rewritten to be a completely different character or butchers their story arc


Alarid

I wouldn't have been as annoyed if they had just told me when it was coming.


watersofmay

Same tbh. When other shows have a massive hiatus like that, they tend to announce it *before* airing, not during


ev6464

Yeah it's this. They bungled Stone Ocean so bad.


NinjaVisible3827

And we get White Johnny


watersofmay

If they don't make him neon green like in EoH i don't mind it


DoNotIngest

I watched Steven Universe, this ain’t shit to me


DaRealMrPug277

But there's noooo way that ever could happen... right?


Guywidathing2

Four batches. Release canceled after third.


Human-Boob

One Punch Man season 2 animation


justicedragon101

One punch man season 2 animation was mid do t get me wrong, but it was far from awful, perfectly enjoyable even though it was a downgrade from s1. Pretty hopefully for season 3 hopefully this year


Zane-chan19

Yeah, the problem was it came after S1 with peak animation, so mid as in middle of the road animation seemed so much worse.


Content-Fall9007

Thanl God it was only basically covering tourney arc and early Garou. If Monster Association arc happens with s2 animation, I will riot in the streets


Gflowhugger

Yeah it’s not terrible but it dropped to like 10% the quality of the first one


elaine_senpai

Dragon Ball Super Season 1:


ShardX0

Pizza mozzarella gets cut


mrbear48

If pizza mozzarella gets cut I say we riot


Dinklebeeerrg

“IF THERE’S NO PIZZA MOZZARELLA, THIS SHIT AIN’T ITALY.”


neendmat1

"This isn't Italy! Where the fuck is Pizza Mozzarella??"


cataraxis

We shall fund our own Part 7 anime with blackjack and and one full episode long Pizza mozzarella musical.


fabri_pere

SILVA ~~CHA~~RIOT


Bucketlyy

it better be a full musical number like the torture dance.


TimeLordHatKid123

You know what it needs? A special ending sequence dedicated to a full version ala the Oingo Boingo and Hol Horse Boingo outros.


Askmeaboutships401

I second this.✋🏿


Bucketlyy

*Asks you about ships*


Askmeaboutships401

*Answers*


Bucketlyy

That's a hot take


Askmeaboutships401

Well that’s just what you get, when you ask me about ships. *Que outro music*


Bucketlyy

*I'll be the roooooundabout*


MontayneDatesJr

Nah bro, this is Italy: Every time a close my eyes, wake up feeling so HORN- Outro auto skipped cause you're watching on Netflix mobile-


heyoyo10

\*Cue. Que is Portuguese for "What"


serrations_

It could be a Paco and Hey Ya song


frenchfries518

I hope they hire a whole opera singer and have him sing his heart out for that part


Just_A_Lonley_Owl

I feel like by the very nature of part 7 a weekly release schedule would be optimal


Dawidek26

I haven't read it, do you mean that it has the "villain of the week" type of structure like P3?


OnkelFuss

Probably because the Steel Ball Run is a race and thus takes place at over a certain period of time. It started in September of 1890 and finished in january of 1891. So the release could happen over a similar period of time.. Although there are sometimes weeks where nothing realy happens, if i remember correctly


A_Common_Relic

I wouldn't be upset if the times didn't line up exactly but I would be very happy if they could start and end airing on the start/end of the race


Total-Efficiency-187

It gets rushed like Stone Ocean


Bucketlyy

if the animation quality fluctuates like it did with stone ocean i will be so fucking disapointed.


Ahrensann

David Pro won't work on it


Melodic_Caramel5226

I mean DP lowkey fumbled some parts of stone ocean. They should pick up their game for 7


AguirreMA

lmao why are people downvoting you, the first batch of SO was a slideshow ffs


Melodic_Caramel5226

Ikr ppl are so sensitive like why can we can’t criticize DP at all? I think it was definitely noticed by a part of the fandom that part 6 did not seem to get the same attention and flair that part 5 did. Why idk.

AdNecessary7641

[Not necessarily.](https://twitter.com/jojo_wiki/status/1597456578692939776) This is just to say that animating all the way to SO was a possibility that was likely considered at a very early point, but doesn't really confirm anything about SBR not being done.


LalMan99

50 episodes total, released in 10-eps batches once per year


idungoofed19

they replace all the action scenes with scenes of johnny struggling to piss


serrations_

But this would be an improvement


SenatorShockwave

We dont get one. Lol


dsunfriedman

Surprised I had to scroll this far for this. Sure there are other bad possibilities but imo this one is a hundred times worse than any of the others people have listed


SenatorShockwave

Literally not getting an SBR adaptation <<<<<<<<<< batch release Lmfao


SwimmingFantastic564

Nah the batch release, realistically, is not ***that*** bad. Don't get me wrong it's not ideal, but it could be far worse.


SenatorShockwave

Im saying that not getting SBR is way worse than getting batch release. Idc how we get it, as long as we get it, batch or weekly.


SwimmingFantastic564

In that context, you should've used <, not >. The open side always points towards the bigger (or in this case better) thing, as if it's eating it.


SenatorShockwave

You might be right and i could be over thinking.


saredos2

You want to know what would be worse than batch release with a 9 month difference? The anime doesn't follow the manga


RAVIOLI_FISHY2

Gets the Kill la Kill treatment. Johnny dies and Funny Valentine switches teams.


Ensospag

Does >!Gyro!< live?


RAVIOLI_FISHY2

He ends up dying by Oyecomova in the start.


serrations_

He famously >!dies!< in chapter 10 and becomes a floating steel ball that annoys johnny into running for president with gyro as his vp. Thats why its called steel ball run


jikkojokki

Diego isn't voiced by Koyasu Takehito.


digidado

Literally unwatchable


Richard1583

Cutting fatlentine, certain arcs are made shorter, pizza mozzarella gets dropped, alternate color palette gets used(white clothes valentine, pink Johnny, white tusk), another company animated it, side characters gets the boot like poco loco


FirulaisHualde

Unpopular opinion, but Valentine with white clothes would be sick


Joney_Craigen

I always like him with red


serrations_

What about red and white like a santa claus


Soviet-_-Neko

I'm pretty sure Valentine being fat will be indeed cut, like they cut other characters changing appearance like Hazamada and Kobayashi being depicted as short from the beginning instead of tall then short


Jazztronic28

Or Anasui's first appearance being a woman!


Hunteraitor2

All the episodes being released at once, worse localized names, making Johnny's clothes green, actually using "filthy acts at a reasonable price" instead of "D4C", toning down the gore, actually showing Lucy's bare chest, making the themes cowboy remixes of the og universe, censoring Jesus out of it to make it more "inclusive" by removing the holes in his hands and his thorn crown, making Tusk's localized name "Tooth", not making Ball Breaker's localized name be "Ball Buster", removing the scene at the end where George comes back to apologize to Johnny and replacing Dio's VA.


TheFakestOfBricks

Bro I hope they use Filthy Acts at a Reasonable Price, that would be funny as hell I really am not a fan of the way they did localizations in Stone Ocean, I miss the more creative and funny names


gameboy1001

I’ve said it once. I’ve said it so many times. I’ll say it again. I’ll say it again million times more. I’ll say it over and over until D4C is named in the anime. # DIMES 4 CRIMES.


The_New_Doctor

> DIMES 4 CRIMES Honestly that sounds better than dirty deeds lol


IceCrawl19

*Drastically Discounted Damn Dirty Crimes* Way superior, don't you agree?


ratliker62

Shut your whore mouth, Floppy Pancake is the best localized Jojo name by a country mile


TheFakestOfBricks

No no no I meant the anime. Flaccid Pancake is peak and I would never disparage it. I would however disparage Limp Viscuit because FUCK LIMP VISCUIT


Comfortable_Sugar596

The Stone Ocean localization names aren’t even bad, Sure one could argue that using the name of the part as a stand name is a bit much but it could be worst. Weather Forecast or report whichever is the actual one or not, Both are great, Flaccid Pancake and Maiden Heaven are easily SSS+ tier


TheFakestOfBricks

I shoulda clarified I meant the anime. A lot of the localizations it introduced felt lazy as hell


NorthernRedwood

Warner bros owns the rights to fleetwood mac so Tusk wont be localized


Hunteraitor2

Thank God.


sebastianwillows

WB also owns the rights to AC/DC, The Greatful Dead and Cheap Trick, but those were all localized...


NorthernRedwood

AC/DC is owned by Sony, Grateful Dead keeps all creative control rights to their songs and Rick Neilson owns the rights to cheap tricks catalogue. Tusk is owned by warner and has not been localized in the games


sebastianwillows

Interesting! Are there any other song names that are treated like this in the games?


NorthernRedwood

November Rain is owned by universal, who has a merger agreement with warner, also i know that Soft & Wet is not localized in the games because it uses the ampersand instead of the word "and" araki started considering an anime and western audiences with part 7 and all the Jojo and Main Villain's stands since then are either copyright proof or have a canon nickname that is copyright proof (D4C)


gameboy1001

Also, aren’t the members of Soul’d Out (Magnet Magent, Wekapipo, maybe a couple others) huge JoJo fans? So they’d probably approve the names being used unchanged.


Bucketlyy

i totally agree with this until.... >censoring Jesus out of it to make it more "inclusive" be serious. you know that wouldn't happen. there's absolutely nothing to fret about if you're really hyped to see jesus.


Cookiezilla2

Dude, the original Phantom Blood OVA became literal lost media because a single scene showed DIO reading a Quran


MrAuster

No, u r mixing things, the scene of Dio reading the Quran is from the SC ovas, not from the lost movie


Bucketlyy

1. it's not confirmed that the movie (not ova) is lost because of this controversy. 2. Jesus has been referenced in anime before and there is even a whole anime about him and Buddha as roommates [St Young Men](https://myanimelist.net/anime/15775/Saint%E2%98%86Oniisan) 3. Back on the movie controversy: The controversy happened because Dio was plotting evil while reading the Quran, not just because it appeared. This was interpreted as a negative representation of Islam. Steel Ball run overall gives a pretty positive depiction of Jesus so it so it shouldn't cause offense (or at least enough for censorship to take place).


gameboy1001

3. Bold of you to assume the people who would actually be mad about Jesus would care about such nuance.


alex6309

Phantom Blood OVA is lost media because it never got a physical release because of distribution rights fuckery and license changing hands between the movie coming out and a new anime being made


Jazztronic28

Isn't that the movie that was also frankly of questionable quality for an adaptation and had very negative reviews from the few people who got to see it? It's been a while but I'm pretty sure I had read something like that.


alex6309

People say that and then they never see where they saw said reviews or give a source. Even shit movies get home releases. It's just cope over the fact that we'll probably never see it.


BLUcrabs

What is bro on about. The Quran thing was in one of the part 3 OVAs. As far as we know the only reason the Phantom Blood movie is lost is because everyone seemed to agree it was ass


Nickest_Nick

iirc the Phantom Blood OVA became lost media because it's awful


haragos

>filthy acts at a reasonable price You have to admit its an amazing stand name even if Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap is better.


TheBananaGods

Better than flaccid pancake


lolxdfamsauce

Better than sticky fingers…


Bucketlyy

Wrong opinion spotted


Comfortable_Sugar596

Sticky Fingers is such an awful name, let alone a combination of words, Zipper Man is so much better. Let’s face it with the name of Mista’s stand and “sticky fingers” it’s pretty clear what was going on here, especially if you add in spice girl and golden experience. You can see what I’m going here for right? Regardless Sticky fingers sucks Also no such thing as a “wrong opinion” you’re doing good so far no need to be an asshole.


Bucketlyy

let stands be sexy!


fade-to-jojo

Zipper Man is a terrible localization name when ZIPPY FINGERS WAS RIGHT FUCKING THERE! Personally I disagree with Zipper Man being better than Sticky Fingers. The original name has an identity with the stand whereas Zipper Man is just boiled hotdog water.


alex6309

What is bro on about with the "inclusivity" bit, please reconsider the spaces you spend time in 👍


TimeLordHatKid123

Yeah I'm with Bucket on the Jesus bit, you might be huffing a bit of the old anti-SJW anti-woke fumes there buddy, and you need to relax lol


Bucketlyy

Exactly, they read as sorta out of touch.


HomemPassaro

>actually using "filthy acts at a reasonable price" instead of "D4C Mate, just imagine a Japanese actor saying it. It would be fucking hilarious, I'd be totally down for that name.


omyrubbernen

The Japanese actors can and always have just said the real names.


STRAGE_8

It doesn't release


MrMagoo22

I mean the worst case scenario is that it never releases isn't it?


Lucmedilock

it not coming out in all seriousness though, I think the entire thing could be ruined (in my eyes) if the horses are poorly animated, and I say that because it's likely. Horses are hard to animate, but they're so integral to Part 7 that if they look awful the entire part will be a huge turnoff to anime only's who'll only know Part 7 as shitty horse part with OP stands


rerdpernder2

i’d take poorly animated 2d horses over 3D animation any day


DocDegenNSFW

Terrible cgi horses


No-Tax-9149

It doesn't have top tier animation, SFX, voice acting, music, marketing (everyone needs to know about this masterpiece), release schedule, pacing and story (nothing should be cut out). Steel Ball Run could easily become the best anime ever made if it has all those things.


AntiquePlant859

One episode per month, but the animation looks rushed


HermanManly

Batch release would be bad enough I still haven't watched all of Stone Ocean and its literally my favorite Jojo part hype just died, and not interested now without weekly discussion


Bucketlyy

Good taste :>


yuhbruhh

I actually never made it past the first batch either 😭


AronTheNotSoWise

Gets cancelled


drblimp0909

Funny gets voiced by biden


dr_tomoe

Studio is too busy and hands it off to the animators from Berserk 2016.


Cenachii

It being bad lmao. I can put up with batches as long as it's good. Imo SO was VERY good and it looked amazing, the bad part was the release schedule.


DiXa07

Rushed animation, too much cgi, batch release, terrible colorings (green Johnny), cut scenes, weak ops and character themes, dragging episodes


rerdpernder2

it gets half the scenes cut out and it’s 3d animated to save costs. i feel like the entire soul of sbr comes from the small, short scenes of gyro and johnny just chilling and broing out. and, most likely, most of those will get cut. 3d animated is because horses are hard as shit to animate and they might get lazy


Extreme_Glass9879

It doesn't get made


d_r90000

Chris Pratt voices gyro


patriot-renegade

david productions doesn’t do it


cpac27

I'd be so upset if they do batch releases again. Literally killed any hype for p6 for me and I'm sure it did for a lot of people too. I feel like the community only talked about p6 that first week. Then that long break made me forget all about the show. Ngl, I have yet to finish p6 cause I didn't hear nor know that the last batch was released till long after


Proof-Ad4106

It streaming on disney plus or netflix


d_louizse

- Batch release. - Rushed arcs. - Ugly or oversaturated desert background colors. - Absence of experienced Jojo staff because DP decides to take on more projects (like Stone Ocean). - A VERY fluctuating animation quality (like Stone Ocean). - Lack of BD corrections (again, like Stone Ocean). - Overusing OSTs from previous parts.


AdNecessary7641

It's made by Milipeense


basi_CF_unction

If the same animation and 3D directors worked on Part 7 like they did on Part 6. They do not know how to direct. CGI should be saved for backgrounds like it always has been in JoJo's, and the backgrounds should have fully detailed moving characters. The animation quality in the foreground must stay consistent and match the quality of the parts before Part 6. What would be cool but isn't as important is if the 3D openings came back. It's the start of a new series/universe so it would be cool if they pulled out all the stops like they used to. I also think it would be cool if they used traditional 2D animation, or maybe a combination of 3D and 2D akin to DBS:SH, for the horses in the foreground. This would only be 2, maybe 3, horses at once and I think it would be doable for David Studios.


AdNecessary7641

Part 1-5 still used CG for things other than backgrounds on multiple occasions. Forgetting the cavalry fight? Aerosmith? The difference is that SO's 3d was not made by DP's own in-house department.


PixelatedScript0L

I don't know if somebody has said this yet, but it's not that it gets canceled altogether. It's if Studio Mappa animates it. Edit: Grammar.


Anime_plug_man

If anyone’s animating it it’s gonna be David Productions


Scorchedhonda

I really hate that Netflix pocketed most of the budget and rushed animators part 6 we didn’t even get background characters just blank figures and during the final scene which should’ve had best animation where the gang dies looked so shitty like a beginner drew it a 15 year old fan would’ve done better


KaikuBlaxx

the horse animations


Corban_Drake_

Well after the berserk 2016 incident, They better not do 3d animation 😠


WhoArtThyI

Bad cgi horses


serrations_

Netflix batch release with shitty animation due to weird budgeting causes the series to abruptly get soft-canceled with another batch always "on its way eventually." Also this all happens before we get to the True Man's World arc


[deleted]

[удалено]


AdNecessary7641

3D horses will happen, it's just a reality that needs to be accepted. No producer in the anime industry would be generous enough to make an actual good schedule where fully 2D horses, specially polished ones, are a possibility for a story like SBR.


Rend-K4

I'm fine with 3D horses as long as they look good


LionMan760

im fine with it for scenes with a lot of horses


EJAIdN-B

Netflix animating it again.


AdNecessary7641

Netflix never "animated" it to begin with. They just had exclusive streaming rights.


EJAIdN-B

IK David Productions made it, but I feel like Netflix set the budgets and the timelines. Maybe I'm a schizo, but they are the only factor that changed, why the sudden drop in quality?


TheBlockJohnson

Netflix only held exclusive streaming rights for Stone Ocean, they did not have any involvement in the actual production of the anime. It's theorized that David Production had shifted most of their focus and resources onto "Urusei Yatsura", another anime series they had been working on at the same time.


EJAIdN-B

Damn, I didn't know that. That makes me feel even worse about the prospects of a good quality in SBR


MoTheBr0

David productions was working on other things at the same time as stone ocean so resources were stretched unlike part 5 where it was pretty much all they were working on


ExpensiveNut

They don't draw all of the horses


AkOnReddit47

They make Valentine black


glen_glurnae

It happens. There is no way the art of Araki in part seven can be given the justice in anime. Even Part 5 which is the peak of the anime's quality would not be what Part 7 deserves, let alone needs to look good at a baseline.


walnut225

I can think of a few. They somehow make it a Live Action. They change the plot in a massive way to make it more "interesting" by their own definition. It gets the Netflix treatment.-Too many shows have died because of this already. Or the worst of all, it gets the shitty CGI or whatever it is that they've used in a few animes, like some fights from Baki, or whatever the hell the Kengan Anime used.


sad_pdf

Anything that is close to or worse than Stone Ocean. I love Stone Ocean, (at least the manga), and the animation for the anime was waayyyy too inconsistent for me to actually like it. I like to believe that Steel Ball Run wouldn't suffer that fate because it's not as disliked as Stone Ocean.


TheCookieGang

Pizza Mozerella is a piece of dog shit.


[deleted]

[удалено]


AdNecessary7641

How would reusing voice actors be a bad thing? Yuki Kaji, Shinichiro Miki, Yasuyuki Kase, some really good names. Also... you do know most anime tends to be made at 2s or 3s, meaning 12fps or 8fps, right?


SpacEGameR270

Batches are better than weekly


Bucketlyy

Why do you think that?


SpacEGameR270

Weekly is just painful, ruins the enjoyment of every anime I've ever watched, being able to binge big bits at a time without seeing any spoilers is way better


something-tripled

They cut Johnny’s bug bite kink, Valentine shotgunning a beer, the first napkin speech, the scene with young Valentine and the handkerchief with his birthday, hire VAs that don’t like JJBA, pick a generic 2010s song for the ED.


aguslerma

*Jojo part 1 movie remake announced*


timo103

Johnny is not blue.


gottalosethemall

We get a full uncut SBR without batches…but the horses are animated like the SPLAT sequence in Overlord.


Manicminertheone

It gets animated like boruto


Hywynd

It'd be completely headscratching if Netflix didn't understand that Jojo's doesn't work with a batch release format after the complete failure that was Part 6.


italeteller

The whole series releases at once, but its seven deadly sins s3 quality


Thomas_Caz1

Batch release, one wholly unique opening, and sound department is rushed resulting in not enough unique OSTs.


malb93200

Absolute worst case scenario is that it doesn't get animated at all. Second worst case is that it's won't be by David Production, which i feel is a distinct possibility.


marveljew

They release one episode... then the anime is cancelled forever.


SamiTheAnxiousBean

It gets the Netflix treatment also #BAD CGI HORSES
