Unfortunately.

The next release has about a two season break from now at the time of writing this, since the TV broadcast run in Japan has just ended. (Depending on who you ask, a three season break counting Winter 2022). This upcoming cour also wouldn't show up on this year's AniChart autumn seasonal chart or any searched up query for Fall 2022 anime on AniList w/o the split.

It's just Netflix that took the helm on worldwide releasing it this way.

  wait, so it aired fully in japan already? ffs..
  Kuropiko 4y
  Only the first 12 episodes aired in Japan.

  Shouldn’t it better to change it to “JoJo's Bizarre Adventure STONE OCEAN Cour 2”
  
  If you think about with the current name could also be called “JoJo Part 6 Part 2” which imo sounds stupid
  
  So “JoJo Part 6 Cour 2” is much better imo. Kinda like Mushoku Tensei Cour 2
  
  Or is the “Part 2” part of the official name?

  Using 'cour' certainly sounds better, but for the time being, going to stick to how we classify and standardize naming recent split season anime (countless examples such as Re:Zero S2, Moriarty, SAO Alicization WoU, SnK Final, Spy x Family entries which all have the added 'Part 2' to differentiate it from the first run), unless stated otherwise by official english streaming license holders (See 86, as Crunchyroll refers to it as the Season 2 > Part 2 & as you mentioned Mushoku Tensei, as Funimation refers to it as Cour 2 > Part 2). The title may change slightly down the line depending on how NF refers to it. However until then, its to stay consistent w/ standard split season named entries and other Netflix anime titles that have previously been released into batches by the streaming platform exclusively: namely Gokushufudou (aka The Way of the Househusband).
  
  If you think about with the current name could also be called “JoJo Part 6 Part 2” which imo sounds stupid
  
  Thankfully, it's not officially titled that way. I do get where your coming from though, some fans will call it that jokingly enough. JJBA is synonymous by having parts after all, which makes both the naming & releasing situation all the more bizarre than it needs to be.

The thread "Why is Part 6 being split up by such a long time? Do you think this pattern will repeat for Part 6 part 3?" and it's comments have been merged into this thread.

You can view the merged thread's body below:

  I think it's fairly agreeable that 10 months is a pretty long time in between parts of a season, especially for something like Stone Ocean which isn't really structured to be split up and never previously indicated that it would be split up so much. At least Part 3 had two distinct halves that lent themselves well to being split, and the more episodic nature made the split less jarring, but I feel Part 6 being split over such a long time somewhat hurts it while it's airing.

  How is it 10 months? Didn't the anime came out in early december!? That would be only 3-4 months.....
  Nozarashi 4y
  They announced that the next batch of episodes isn't coming out until Fall (likely October).

Fuck Netflix, all my homies hate Netflix.
KFCMUNCHA10 4y
They really botched the release of the episodes haven't they.
MrPresidentAria 4y
I wish they had been more upfront about this from the start. Feels like it came out of nowhere :/

This best be spectacularly animated and no CGI
- gourm3t 4y
  CGI in JoJo is always dope. Either way, they only use it in openings.
  MajoJestic 4y
  You must not have watched the first cour of part 6.

i am not a big part 6 or 8 fan, but i am a bit worried for 7 when i see this...
- 777v 4y
  It would be really so funny if they animate Sbr with the cgi thingy they used in Berserk 2016
  foreverdumb 4y
  I'd laugh, ngl
Angelo 4y
Because david prods teams are split up into different projects. Their main team was pushed from stone ocean to UY Reboot, so obviously it's gonna take so much longer to come out.
- ToddHarry258 4y
  nope it's not the case since both have different staffs it's just jojo part 6's schedule is tight which what caused it be split off.
coval 4y
Weekly would have been SO much better
Canada 4y
Welcome to the Netflix era of Anime. On top of absolute dogshit translations we have this to deal with. Not surprising, but I'll wait until it's released in its entirety. A real shame because this is my favorite part as well.
Frutson 4y
I feel bad for anime onlies.
BlackRetsu 4y
Yeah and in this case, stone ocean the first 12 episode was released as a batch on december, the second batch is this october which is really bad cuz at this pace the third one will be next october so almost 2 years for it to end.

goddamnit saw this happening on MAL already was hoping anilist wouldnt go this way
nixwitch 4y
Yeah, this release format is kind of awful. I'm straight up not hyped for part 6 anymore.
Hannibalism 4y
They did my season fucking dirty.
MoraltonMayor 4y
i really dont want to wait till fall but sigh
- GrumpyLover 4y
  poor part 6. Everyone hated the manga for bunch of reasons, anime could've saved it like it did part 5, then netflix happened to it.
Seiidou 4y
I’m still gonna watch Stone Ocean when it drops, but Netflix has ruined the hyped…. It’s just dead and non-existent now. Like the show is there but nobody talks about the show like they will with weekly releases like One Piece or the upcoming Shield Hero season 2….
courierr 4y
Netflix ruined one of the few Jojo parts
Taluun 4y
Love to see more time between cours, hopefully the production team has time to not stress over the work.
tsukikoko 4y
really killing the hype for the jojo part that needs in the most imo. i was really hoping stone ocean would get the golden wind treatment, where the anime was enjoyed far more than the manga. at this rate though i highly doubt that will happen :(
bubbleteaman 4y
i have not watched jojos at all (yet) but Netflix is butchering the release, its honestly appalling
- TheTrueElitist 4y
  Just watch part 1-5 and then read the rest
