Exciting developments were revealed during the “JOJODAY” livestream event dedicated to the JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure series, with the announcement of a new anime adaptation for JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Steel Ball Run. Warner Bros. Japan simultaneously released a promotional teaser, confirming the start of production for this much-anticipated installment.

As the seventh part of Hirohiko Araki‘s JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, Steel Ball Run stands out as a pivotal chapter within the expansive series. It introduces a new universe, departing from the continuity of earlier parts, which has intrigued and surprised fans. The adaptation comes after years of speculation about whether the complex premise, including its prominent horse-riding elements, would translate effectively to animation. Just over two years after the conclusion of Stone Ocean, the franchise continues its momentum with this confirmation of a new season.

While additional details about the release schedule remain undisclosed, the teaser has heightened expectations for what lies ahead. Fans anticipate that David Production, known for animating all previous seasons of the series, will return to bring Steel Ball Run to life. The studio’s established reputation for maintaining the distinct style and storytelling of Araki’s work adds to the excitement surrounding this announcement. Check out the new official teaser above.
