Jojo Part 6 Anime Stone Ocean: Release Date And Voice Actors

First let's see the trailer!

Jojo Part 6 Anime Release Date: Is it In Netflix Jail?

Starting with the most obvious, the anime will premier worldwide on Netflix in December 2021 and begin broadcasting on Japanese tv in January 2022.
Now, many people are confused about whether Stone ocean's entire season will be released on Netflix or just a portion of episodes. Well, there's a strong case for both, but I'm leaning on the latter. Netflix is infamous for dropping a portion of episodes as cours to keep engagement and anticipation from viewers.
Now, many fear Jojo could be in Netflix jail, well that's likely untrue because the anime will begin airing on streaming services (most likely got to sail the high seas, if you know what I mean), as it airs on Japanese television starting January.
Also, while doubtful, there is a chance Netflix drops the entire season at once. Though that would be a major disappointment as one of the best parts of the Jojo viewing experience, the epic cliffhangers lead to a bunch of anticipation and speculation from the fanbase.
Nevertheless, onto the next important information. It seems like Netflix is investing much money into the stone ocean as the subtitles keep the original stand names. Usually, stand names are altered to avoid copyright issues, but it seems Netflix probably paid a considerable amount of money to use the original names. However, a rookie translator could also be a mistake because Netflix doesn't have the best subtitles compared to other streaming services.

Maybe that's the Jolyne OST!

Onto the next important info. Many are speculating if that's Jolyne OST that played in the trailer or the opening. Well, it's likely the former because the Golden Wind trailer played one of Giorno's themes as well. Now, is that Joylene's main theme? It's impossible to know right now, but it seems to be one of her themes.

Stone Ocean Voice Actors

Now let's get to the voice actors!

Jolyne Cujoh: Ai Fairouz

Many are already familiar with Jolyne's VA; Ai Fairouz. She accumulated a lot of love & support after her heartwarming interview discussing her love for Jojo. IMO, she's easily the best choice for Jolene, judging by her performance in the trailer.
Now, what is Ai's history? Well, she's a young 28-year-old voice actress who developed her interest in anime and manga after reading JoJo's Bizarre Adventure in junior high school.

Fairouz has voiced characters like Hibiki Sakura in How heavy are the dumbbells you lift, Emily Orange in Kandagawa Jet Girls, and Eripiyo in If my favorite Pop Idol made it to Budokan, I would die.
