Star Wars: Visions - Anime Anthology Series
- Thread starter JD
- Start date
Given Lucasfilm's cherry-picking of Legends, I'd be amazed if they don't pull from some of the more popular Visions tales for future material.
English dub:
Looks fun!

Wow, that looks SO pretty! And appropriate, considering how much Lucas took from Samurai movies. 
Damn, that's some gorgeous animation. I usually don't care for anime, but some of those look fascinating.

Nice!
I know most of the online speculation seems to think the whole series will be released on day one but I really hope it'll be a weekly thing.

Anyone who thinks this is going to be the whole season on one day clearly hasn't been paying attention. Disney+ only does weekly releases.
According to this article on the official site, the entire anthology will be released on the same day.
You need to start paying attention @The Wormhole
Apparently the 9 different stories are each in the 10-20 minute range. Total runtime over 2 hours and 20 minutes.
So blasting though all of them in one sitting might end up shortchanging some of them in your head. Might be a good idea to split them over 2-3 (or more) days.

I'll probably watch three a night, seen a couple of reviews that recommend breaking them up rather than watch them all in one go.
