    I just think the main reason that we're giving jojo hate for spliting the anime into sections and not other animes simply comes back to netflix again with how they are releasing it in batches and not an episode at a time. What they could've done is say "Episodes 1-12, December 1 2021" and once that time arrives, release an episode per week until they run out until the next batch. But thats just my opinion so :/

    We always got weekly releases for the anime before and it never was a problem for DP. It's even better for them, because they don't have to rush 12 episodes every 9 months but they can concentrate their efforts on the first episodes and continue to animate the next episodes as they release. We would have a constent weekly hype for 38 weeks. But now people don't even know part 2 of SO is comming in 2 days. You say that even negative reviews are good but at this point there's absolutely no reviews so this is bad for us, for DP and for Netflix themselves.

    I’m not annoyed at the break. I’m far more annoyed at the batch release. If the first twelve episodes released weekly, this 10 month long gap between episodes would only feel like 6 or 7. It’s still a long wait, but it’s much more manageable. Plus, the community would’ve gotten 12 weeks of JoJo theories and speculation from the anime only’s. Rather than about one week of people discussing the entire batch.
    Great video by the way. Super well done.

    Releasing Stone Ocean Weekly for fans to watch is like eating a cookie bit by bit and always having more to taste in each bite and eventually feeling satisfied.
    Releasing The Entire Batch of Stone Ocean all at once is like eating the entire cookie and you already feel like you’re satisfied... except you also feel unsatisfied at the same time because you find yourself wanting more, and that’s too bad considering it’s only available every few months or a year before you can have another cookie.

    Yeah, I felt like the first STONE OCEAN was really rushed compared to Golden Wind, the previous part. In part 5, everything in the background is detailed, beautiful, and in pretty realistic motion.
    But in part 6, we literally have motionless grey outlines of background characters. Even if they're close to the "camera," they're still just... blank grey outlines.

    If SO was released weekly, with a 1 cour break (3 months) in-between each "part" I promise people would have much less of a problem with it. The first episode would've been January 2022 and the last would've been April 2023. The same time period as it's currently airing in, so the studio would've had just as much time to work on it. Actually they would've had more time since the later episodes in each "part" don't have to be finished 6 months before they'd naturally air on TV (would also be nice if Netflix didn't need it even 3 months earlier to dub it into every language on Earth).
    The difference is 9 months of weekly episodes with 6 months of break vs 3 days of batches and 15+ months of nothing. Stone Ocean was just a quick cash grab for Netflix, which is why they've pretty much stopped promoting it all together now that the hype is gone. No excuse.

    The worst aspect for me is not having to wait for the next batch, but rather the batch itself. Releasing 12 episodes all at once basically kills the hype as well as possible discussion/theories from the community. I just wish they gave us a weekly release, instead of a whole batch in one day only for us to wait almost a year for the next part. Also, Stone Ocean has always been one of the most underrated parts of the series and the anime could've been a great opportunity to change that.

Rather than justifying the batch releases over a weekly release then break, I’m more so trying to explain why the anime is “delayed” and having a staggered release like AoT or Spy Family. I’m not saying Netflix is in the right for releasing a batch of 12 episodes and have 0 communication with the fans. Again, this video is to talk about the constraints and trends of the studio and the industry. Hope that clears things up. If you have any more concerns, drop it in a comment below.

    what surprised me is that the second batch had a lot less CGI and a much better quality of it.
    To be honest, in the last episodes there were some insanely animated scenes, as good as the best JoJo had until now.
    Also all the plot and pacing issues are gone and the storyline for Stone Ocean is pretty hype, can't wait for Dio to come back. It would be fun get a Dio v Jotaro rematch. (anime only, pls no manga spoilers)

    @thepicausno5561 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Two important points I think you missed
    1. The big problem with the staggered release is largely because the episodes come in batches. If we got weekly releases starting in December, interest for the series would have kept up right until March, and a 6 month wait is much more bearable than a 10 month wait, especially if their next trailer came out in May/June. Netflix prefers a batch release schedule because they prefer having people binge a new season of the show over coming back weekly, which works for a subset of audiences who's free time comes in blocks, but not for anime viewers who are accustomed to a weekly release schedule.
    2. David Pro, along with a lot of animation studios, are used to working on a weekly release schedule. When Golden Wind was still airing, each episode was being produced the week of release, right up until last minute. This is the reason why they took some weeks off, at one point giving us a recap episode. This also meant that production for this part was hell, which is a problem that can be solved by the 6-month break model you were talking about. The issue is when Netflix wants to make trailers for the next batch of episodes. Instead of keeping that same schedule of producing one episode at a time, David Pro now has to work on 12 episodes simultaneously, so they can get a trailer out showing off scenes from these next dozen episodes. This means restructuring their entire workflow, having to storyboard all 12 episodes as soon as possible so they start animating select scenes from them to put in trailers, which also means your staff of key framers, in-betweeners, animation clean-up, sound effect artists, voice actors, and every other artist that isn't a storyboarder has to wait until all 12 episodes have been storyboarded before they can get any work done. Inefficiencies like this slow down production by a lot, and is the main reason why batch 2 took almost a year to be finished. I'm sure when the first trailer came out that was all the work they had done at the time.

    • @wongdiggidy
      @wongdiggidy  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah the batch release really doesn't line up well with the split parts. Personally I try think of the dates of the Japanese broadcast cuz that's more traditional and I'm hard coping lmao.

    My guess is that, Netflix likes to split series into seasons, and theyd rather have ALL episodes of a part/season instead of updating the whole series updating it every so often. So they ended up splitting the series up so people can still watched the completed episodes of a part without waiting more time to get all the episodes at once.
    I dont care if i wait, because the quality makes up for it at least in my eyes.
    My guess could be wrong but, thats why i called it a "guess".

That's the entire issue here is lack of communication they should've made it very clear as if it's a treat that "the first 12 episodes will drop immediately", or if they recognize the fanbase like with JoJo, just readjust it and do it weekly then take a break afterwards if needed.

    Great video you've definitely earned a sub from me. That being said I do disagree with one point you made. I don't think stone ocean is doing the same thing as aot and spy x family. The seasonal format helps a lot when done right. it gives the animators and story boarders more leeway which is why pacing and animation often improves in seasonal anime. for long running series like mha it keeps the anime a healthy distance away from the manga which means little to no filler. since they can plan ahead they can pick a good stopping point too which helps with the wait. Stone ocean gets none of these advantages and all the long waits. Plus when those shows come back they tend to advertise themselves with promos and teasers to rebuild the hype which stone ocean doesn't do because it's not a natural break like aot spy family but more of an interruption.

    Staggering the releases in batches was an awful decision no matter what way you look at it. They should have just given the part more time in the oven and then done weekly releases, or hell, even one episode a month if they had no other choice. At least then it would have kept people discussing the series instead of most hype just dying completely. I'm not SUPER upset, considering the episodes we get are still top-tier for the most part; they're still as high quality as DP's work has ever been, but it's still really annoying knowing that the release schedule is ruining the hype for the series.
