Yep, Disney Plus' Star Wars: Visions anime anthology still looks extremely goddamn slick
Disney also announced the voice cast for the English dub of the anime anthology, which is coming in September
Nobody should really be surprised that Disney+’s upcoming Star Wars anime anthology series Visions looks cool. Anime is cool, and Star Wars is sometimes cool, at least when the people making it and the people who like it don’t willfully stand in the way of letting that happen (that actually goes for anime as well), but… this is actually looks really cool. Star Wars aesthetics aside, the animation on that lightsaber assembly sequence is unbelievably slick, and the dude pulling a lightsaber out like a samurai sword makes very little practical sense but is very badass. Hell, we’ll even give it up for that lightsaber parasol contraption, since we’re living in a post-Rise Of Skywalker world and it’s hard to argue that any lightsaber design is stupid now that we’ve seen Dark Rey’s absurd side-by-side lightsaber (truly one of the dumber things in a movie full of the dumbest things).
