A new trailer for JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean reveals when the highly anticipated anime will premiere on Netflix.
JoJo's Bizarre Adventure is a hyper-stylized multigenerational epic that follows the Joestar family, who possess unique and bizarre powers and chronicles their struggles against the forces of evil. The first chapter of Hirohiko Araki's epic was published in 1987, the series continued in the decades since with 8 parts, each of which is set in a different era and location. Each part focuses on a different member of the Joestar family, who are locked in a generation-spanning battle with the figure known as Dio.
Stone Ocean adapts part six of the manga, and brings the action to 2011 Florida. The most significant addition to this season is the first female protagonist of the show, Joylene.
