The jojo manga has been around since the eighties but it was not until the 2010 era that the finally did a full scale anime of several parts. Why did it took so long to receive one despise having been very popular even at the start?

There were some JoJo OVAs and even a series back in the 1990s, but they weren't really well received (most people say they suck).

I think golgo 13 has it worse. It's as popular as jojo in japan, 20 years older and it only got a proper tv series in 2008

idk, maybe they were saving it for a rainy day when the industry needed a guaranteed hit :>
I probably regret this post by now.

There's a surplus of great unadapted manga and light-novels of similar quality to JoJo out there. Unfortunatley, it isn't the stuff like JoJo that gets adapted on a regular basis.

At least it got a proper adaptation eventually. I think every Berserk fan has lost hope of getting anything after Golden Age.
