Star Wars is Getting a Full Anime

I still need to go back and watch the third season of Star Wars: Visions. I’m sure it’s just as quality as the first two seasons. But regardless, one storyline from the first and third seasons is getting turned into a full series anime: Star Wars: The Ninth Jedi.

Looks like it could be fun! So many of those Visions shorts could be full series, in my opinion. But I’m sure they’ve cooked up something fun with The Ninth Jedi. I’m a little worried at how closely it just apes existing Star Wars iconography — like the Darth Vader, the planet killer weapon and the little droid sidekicks — but I’m sure they’ve got something clever up their sleaves. At least I hope they do!

Star Wars: The Ninth Jedi comes to Disney+ on Aug. 5!

Also, check out my rankings of the first season and second season of Star Wars: Visions. And remind me to go watch the third season one of these days…definitely in time for Ninth Jedi.
