Netflix has finally announced the release date for the anime adaptation of Stone Ocean , the next chapter of Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure.

In a new short teaser for the anime, they revealed the release date for the Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure Stone Ocean anime is 1st December, premiering on Netflix globally ahead of its Televised release in Japan.\

We’ve reached out to Netflix, who have confirmed that the December 1st release will include all episodes for the anime, rather than be a weekly release.

In addition to that, we also got our first look at the various Stands that appear in Part 6- including the updated design for Star Platinum, the Stand used by Jotaro Kujo, protagonist of Part 3.

Stone Ocean follows Jolyne Cujoh – estranged daughter of Jotaro Kujo, who ends up in prison for a murder she didn’t commit.

Here’s the official summary for the anime, provided by Netflix:

After an accident while on a drive with her sweetheart, Jolyne Cujoh falls into a trap and is sentenced to 15 years. She is sent to the state-run maximum security Green Dolphin Street Prison — also known as “The Aquarium.”

On the verge of despair, she receives a pendant from her father that causes a mysterious power to awake inside of her. “There are some things more fearsome than death. And it’s happening at this very prison” A message from a mysterious boy who appears before Jolyne, inexplicable events that occur one after another, the horrifying truth told to her by her father when he comes to visit, and the name DIO… Will Jolyne ultimately be set free from this stone ocean they call a prison? The final battle to end century-long fateful confrontations between the Joestar family and DIO begins!
