Reimagine the galaxy with Star Wars Visions, featuring stories from seven visionary Japanese anime studios.
Reimagine the galaxy with Star Wars Visions. It is an original series featuring stories from seven visionary Japanese anime studios, streaming September 22 on Disney+. The studios revealed were Kamikaze Douga, Geno Studio, Studio Colorido, Trigger, Kinema Citrus, Science Saru, and Production IG. Each studio will use their signature animation and storytelling styles to realize their own visions.
As a first formal venture into anime, each short bears a unique Japanese sensibility, which in many ways aligns with the tone and spirit of Star Wars storytelling. From the beginning, stories told in the Star Wars galaxy have counted Japanese mythology and the films of Akira Kurosawa among their many influences, and these new visions will further explore that cultural heritage through the unique animation style and perspective of each anime studio.
