JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Steel Ball Run unveils new trailer focused on Stands

The anime adaptation of Steel Ball Run has released a new promotional video dedicated entirely to Stands. Warner Bros. Japan Anime published it on its YouTube channel, and it goes over the abilities that have appeared throughout the series so far, with some new cuts that tease what is coming.

The trailer, titled «-立ち向かうもの- STAND», works as a recap for those who are up to date and as an appetizer for those who have not started this seventh part of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure yet. The idea is clear: remind viewers what each Stand can do and set the stage for the battles ahead.

A look back at the powers of the race

The video goes through the Stands that have already appeared in the story, from the first encounters to the most recent clashes. It does not just show previously aired footage: it includes new cuts from battles that have not been seen yet.

The plot of Steel Ball Run is set in 1890, during a horse race that crosses North America from coast to coast. Johnny Joestar, a former jockey left paraplegic, joins the competition after meeting Gyro Zeppeli and discovering that the strange phenomena surrounding him could restore his hope.

The series continues its run on Netflix

The anime is currently in the middle of airing its second and third cours, which add up to eleven episodes in total. Netflix releases them every Friday as a worldwide exclusive, and at the time of publishing this news the first eight were already available.

In the most recent episodes, Johnny awakens his Stand, which he names Tusk, and uses it to face the pursuer Pork Pie Hat Kid. Meanwhile, the race reveals its true goal: to gather the parts of a corpse scattered along the route.

The opening is performed by Kroi with «SPIN», and the ending is by Yuki Chiba with «死ぬか生きるか».
