Okay, JoJo fans, let's get real. When exactly are we getting more episodes? It's the question that haunts our dreams (and plagues our search histories).
The JoJo Drought: A Real Problem
Seriously though, the wait between seasons feels like an eternity. We binge everything in a week. Then, we're left staring at our screens, wondering what to do with our lives.
Anyone else start re-watching from Phantom Blood just to cope? Don't lie. We've all been there.
Rumors, Rumors Everywhere!
The internet is a swirling vortex of supposed leaks and predictions. "My uncle works at David Production!" declares some random commenter. We all get our hopes up, only to be crushed later.
I've learned to take everything with a massive grain of salt. Unless it's officially announced by the JoJo team, I'm side-eyeing it.
My "Unpopular" Opinion (Maybe?)
Okay, here it comes. Brace yourselves. I think we're putting too much pressure on them.
Yes, I crave more flamboyant poses and over-the-top battles. But quality takes time! Do we really want a rushed product?
I'd rather wait longer for a polished, amazing season than get something subpar shoved out quickly. Fight me in the comments if you disagree!
What Could We Expect?
So, let's speculate anyway (because we can't help ourselves). Stone Ocean wrapped up, right?
That leaves Steel Ball Run and JoJolion. Most people seem to believe Steel Ball Run is next.
Honestly? I'm hyped for either. Imagine the epic horse races of Steel Ball Run animated! Or the bizarre mysteries of JoJolion!
The Animation Hurdle
Let's be honest, Steel Ball Run is gonna be a beast to animate. All those horses! All the dynamic poses!
David Production will probably need extra time and resources. I hope they get it!
That said, the wait might be even longer than usual. Deep breaths, everyone. We can do this.
How to Survive the Wait (According to Me)
First, embrace the manga. If you haven't read Steel Ball Run or JoJolion, now's the perfect time.
Second, revisit your favorite moments. Those Stardust Crusaders fights? Still epic. Golden Wind's emotional rollercoaster? Always hits hard.
Third, create some JoJo content yourself! Write fanfiction. Draw fan art. Cosplay your favorite character. Embrace the fandom!
The Real Secret? Patience
Ultimately, the key is patience. We've waited before. We can wait again.
David Production knows we're hungry for more JoJo. They wouldn't leave us hanging forever (I hope!).
So, let's just enjoy the anticipation. And maybe, just maybe, stop harassing the animators on Twitter. Just a thought.
In the meantime, I'll be over here rewatching Battle Tendency. Because Joseph Joestar is a national treasure.
See you all when the new episodes finally drop! We'll be ready with our "ORA ORA ORA"s and our "MUDA MUDA MUDA"s.
And maybe, just maybe, a little bit of sanity left. Probably not, though.
