Production of anime 'Steel Ball Run: JoJo's Bizarre Adventure' confirmed
Approximately two years have passed since the final episode of the anime adaptation of Part 6, Stone Ocean, of Hirohiko Araki's manga JoJo's Bizarre Adventure was released, and it has finally been announced that Part 7, Steel Ball Run, will be made into an anime, with a teaser trailer and visuals being released.
The image visual depicts Gyro Zeppeli, Johnny Joestar, and others taking on a 6,000km transcontinental race across North America, with a prize of $50 million for the winner.
Character visuals of Johnny and Gyro have also been released.
All that was announced this time were the teaser video and visuals, and the broadcast and release dates are still unknown.
For reference, in the case of the previous work, 'Stone Ocean,' it was revealed that Fairouz Ai would be playing the role of Jolyne when the announcement of the anime adaptation was made, and streaming began on Netflix one year after the announcement.
Below is a congratulatory illustration from the original author, Hirohiko Araki.
