First ‘Star Wars: Visions’ Reactions Celebrate Its Uniqueness

The first social media reactions from critics for Star Wars: Visions have arrived a week before its release.

Star Wars: Visions might be the boldest project Lucasfilm has done in the Disney era based on what’s been seen so far. The upcoming anthology series coming to Disney Plus will tell nine distinct stories from different anime studios, all still set in the Star Wars galaxy.

The Star Wars series will hit the streaming service next week, but we have our first reactions to the series. Lucasfilm has had a pretty good track record with their Star Wars shows, and it sounds like Visions is up to par:

I’ve watched all of #StarWarsVisions & I absolutely loved it. Each short brings its own unique, inventive interpretation of STAR WARS that enhances & expands upon everything we already know. The visuals are gorgeous & the storytelling is top notch. SO MANY crazy lightsaber fights pic.twitter.com/4tfNDsWoZc

#StarWarsVisions is cool! It’s a mixed bag, which is to be expected. Most of the shorts really worked for me.

The Ninth Jedi especially is PHENOMENAL. I would have watched an entire movie based on that premise!

My full review of the series will be out next week! pic.twitter.com/hvRwmwkN52

One more thing before I attempt to duct-tape my mouth shut for a week—You probably know which short was *my* favourite, but I will say there is one of the 9 we’ve barely seen that I think is going to blow people away with what it does, what it looks like… and what it remixes? https://t.co/iLXigcYTEq pic.twitter.com/DnmrFXTo5w

#StarWarsVisions blew me away. I was not expecting to enjoy it as much as I did. The art style is incredible and the stories told are simple but that’s not a bad thing. I’ve seen the English dub and intend on rewatching in the Japanese dub! Highly recommended! pic.twitter.com/g8u5W3ASmK

#StarWarsVisions is incredible. The animation is god-tier and it’s fascinating to see each studio explore the far reaches of this universe in their own unique way. Everyone will have a different favourite chapter. To me, this is the future of #StarWars.pic.twitter.com/pLIsYTNtlC

The most recent animated Star Wars series was The Bad Batch. Here is the synopsis:

The series follows the elite and experimental clones of the Bad Batch (first introduced in The Clone Wars) as they find their way in a rapidly changing galaxy in the immediate aftermath of the Clone War. Members of Bad Batch — a unique squad of clones who vary genetically from their brothers in the Clone Army — each possess a singular exceptional skill, which makes them extraordinarily effective soldiers and a formidable crew. In the post-Clone War era, they will take on daring mercenary missions as they struggle to stay afloat and find new purpose.

The Bad Batch was executive produced by Dave Filoni, Athena Portillo, Brad Rau, and Jennifer Corbett, with Carrie Beck as co-executive producer and Josh Rimes as producer. Rau also served as supervising director, with Corbett as head writer. Dee Bradley Baker was behind the voices of Clone Force 99.

The Bad Batch season one is available on Disney Plus, while all nine episodes of Star Wars: Visions will premiere on September 22. Stay tuned to Heroic Hollywood for all the latest news surrounding Star Wars, and subscribe to our YouTube channel for exclusive video content!
