It looks like Stone Ocean isn't the only big thing happening for the JoJo's Bizarre Adventures franchise this December. The new standalone manga focusing on Josuke Higashikata and his Stand Crazy Diamond has just been given an official release date. Amazingly, the new spin-off will be dropped before the end of the year!
The new manga is titled JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Crazy Diamond's Demonic Heartbreak. As the title suggests, it will focus on Josuke and Crazy Diamond. However, the cover for the new story also confirms that we'll be seeing a familiar face who was last seen in Stardust Crusaders.
As it turns out, we'll be catching up with Hol Horse in the upcoming manga. The villain was initially introduced in Stardust Crusaders where he was sent by DIO to go after the Joestar Group consisting of Joseph Joestar, Jotaro Kujo, Muhammed Avdol, Noriaki Kakyoin, Jean-Pierre Polnareff, and Iggy. Previous reports have also indicated that Pet Shop is going to make an appearance in the spin-off.
JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Crazy Diamond's Demonic Heartbreak will be a refreshing new story for fans who love Josuke and Crazy Diamond. However, it will not be created by Hirohiko Araki. Instead, Kouhei Kadono and Tasuku Karasuma will step in for the spin-off.
The manga is a welcome idea for fans who are looking for new content this year. Luckily, it's set to be released just a few weeks after JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Season 6. The anime's latest season will focus on Jolyne Cujoh as she is framed and sent to prison where she encounters several enemy Stand Users.
JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Season 6 is officially titled JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean and will premiere on Netflix on December 1, 2021. JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Crazy Diamond's Demonic Heartbreak will be released on December 18, 2021.
