The trailer for a brand new Star Wars show called Star Wars: Visions has finally arrived. This show will look into uncharted territory for Lucas Films as Visions brings the world of anime to Star Wars.
The collection of nine short Star Wars stories will air on Disney+ and will be all non-canon. “Visions employs the talents of seven acclaimed studios: Kamikaze Douga (Batman Ninja), Geno Studio (Golden Kamuy), Studio Colorido (Pokémon: Twilight Wings), Trigger (Promare), Kinema Citrus (Made in Abyss), Science Saru (Devilman Crybaby), and Production I.G (Ghost in the Shell),” reports Yahoo.
Since the stories are non-canon Disney has a lot of room to work with and a lot of room for amazing fights with some very powerful characters. Lucas Films is partnering with several of the best anime studios so that they can bring their unique style to the Star Wars galaxy.
The new trailer for Star Wars: Visions reimagines the galaxy far, far away from the lens of seven legendary Japanese anime studios.

Star Wars breaks into anime with ‘Visions’
One installment of the show takes place after the events of The Rise Of Skywalker, another stars Temuera Morrison and has a fresh and new look on the legendary bounty hunter Boba Fett. Star Wars: Visions starts streaming on Disney + on September 22 and can be watched in its original Japanese or in an English dub. The voice actors for the English dub are full of stars including Neil Patrick Harris.
It has been confirmed that anything goes as far as lightsaber tech, force powers, and costume designs. “The episodes are entitled “The Duel,” “Tatooine Rhapsody,” “The Twins,” “The Village Bride,” “The Ninth Jedi,” “T0-B1,” “The Elder,” “Lop & Ochō,” and “Akakiri.”
It will be very interesting to see how the galaxy looks after the series is over and fans are all very excited to see a new look on our beloved galaxy far far away.
It will be very interesting to see how the Star Wars community reacts to this new style of show, but we’ll have to wait until next month to find out.
