The Akihabara International Film Festival in Japan will be screening three episodes of the JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure Part 5: Golden Wind anime next week. The festival takes place from November 9 to November 11, 2024. However, the Golden Wind screening takes place on November 9 from 6:45 PM to 8:45 PM JST. Given the runtime of 24 minutes per episode, the total screening time is around 72 minutes.
In addition, there will be a pre-screening talk show. Details of the speakers attending the event will be announced in the future.
On October 23, 2024, the sound director of every season of the anime, Yoshikazu Iwanami, urgently asked fans on Twitter/X which episodes they would like to see in theaters. After receiving several comments and votes from fans, the staff decided on the following three episodes:
- Episode 27: King Crimson vs. Metallica
- Episode 28: Beneath a Sky on the Verge of Falling
- Episode 38: Gold Experience Requiem
These three episodes previously aired on TV in Japan on April 20, 2019, April 27, 2019, and July 28, 2019 respectively.
Golden Wind is the fourth season of the JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure anime adaptation and the fifth part of the manga.
Description
Giorno Giovanna, a young man belonging to the gang organization Passione, which controls Italy’s underworld, has a dream of overthrowing the “Boss” responsible for flooding the streets with drugs and eliminating drugs from the city entirely. To get closer to the mysterious Boss, Giorno and his allies take on a mission to protect the Boss’s daughter, Trish Una, alongside Bruno Bucciarati, a capo who shares Giorno’s vision. However, the true purpose behind this mission is for the Boss to eliminate Trish himself, as she holds the key to uncovering his identity. Unable to stand by such cruelty, Bucciarati decides to betray the organization. Giorno, Leone Abbacchio, Guido Mista, and Narancia Ghirga also each choose to defect and follow Bucciarati, driven by their own convictions. With their faith in “justice,” Giorno and his allies set out on a “path of hardship,” only to find “fate” standing in their way.
