Kamikaze Douga – Geekfeed https://www.geekfeed.com Entertainment News, Celebrities and Fandoms Sun, 24 Nov 2024 06:06:53 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://www.geekfeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/cropped-Geekfeed-Favicon-White-32x32.png Kamikaze Douga – Geekfeed https://www.geekfeed.com 32 32 Star Wars Visions is Getting a Third Season https://www.geekfeed.com/star-wars-visions-is-getting-a-third-season/ Sun, 24 Nov 2024 06:06:53 +0000 https://www.geekfeed.com/?p=85330 Very few Disney+ Star Wars series manage to break the mould when it comes to nostalgia-baiting, but one show that managed to feel very original was the animated anthology series Star Wars Visions.

The first season had been delivered by several anime studios, while the second one gathered animators from all over the world. Now a third season is incoming and it looks like they’re bringing back the anime studios. Check out the official announcement:

Some returning studios from the first season include Kamikaze Douga, Trigger, Kinema Citrus Co., and Production IG. New studios that will be taking part with Vol. 3 include Wit Studio, Polygon Pictures, Project Studio Q, and David Production.

It’s kind of a shame that Science SARU couldn’t join in on Visions 3, but I guess they’re pretty busy with their new hit Dandadan.

We don’t know what to expect with the third Volume exactly, but if previous seasons were to be followed, we should be getting another anthology of non-canon stories set in world of Star Wars—or something close to it.

I was honestly hoping for some sequels to other episodes—like Lop and Ocho—but so far every episode in Visions has been able to stand by itself without the need for any sequels or prequels.

Besides Andor, Visions is one of the Star Wars properties that really feels like it put creativity ahead of nostalgia. Though I did like the idea of gathering studios from all over the world to contribute, I also thought that going back to anime would bring back that very distinct flavor the first season had.

Expect Star Wars Visions Vol. 3 to come to Disney+ sometime in 2025.

Watch the trailer for Visions down here: 

Just in case you didn’t know, these are all non-canon stories that take place within the universe of Star Wars. We’ve known for a while that we would be following different original characters, but this is the first time we have a look at some familiar locations (like the Mos Espa Grand Arena from Phantom Menace) as well as characters.

Here’s the list of anime studios and their entries in Visions:

Kamikaze Douga – The Duel

Geno Studio (Twin Engine) – Lop and Ochō

Studio Colorido (Twin Engine) – Tatooine Rhapsody

Trigger – The Twins

Trigger – The Elder

Kinema Citrus – The Village Bride

Science Saru – Akakiri

Science Saru – T0-B1

Production IG – The Ninth Jedi

The series looks absolutely amazing, and a lot of animation fans can appreciate its distinct look from existing animated Star Wars material like The Clone Wars or Rebels. Personally, I was hoping that Resistance was going to adapt this anime art-style, but you can’t have it all.

Hopefully the success of Visions will let Lucasfilm explore the idea of more 2D-animated properties down the line. With Star Wars being known for its dazzling visuals and heartfelt stories, there’s just so much room to explore with this medium. How about a Star Wars: Legends series covering the debunked material from the EU?

Catch Star Wars: Visions when it premieres on Disney+ on Sept. 22.
