Star Wars Visions Volume 3’s First Trailer Is an Anime Extravaganza
After a sojourn around the globe for a second volume of international animation, Star Wars: Visions is returning to Japan for another volume of anime-centric adventures. So it’s perhaps fitting then, that Lucasfilm just gave us our first look at the latest anthology right out of Star Wars Celebration Japan. Today in Tokyo, Lucasfilm lifted the lid on the first teaser for Visions Volume 3 to gathered fans at Star Wars Celebration. The latest volume will feature tales created by nine Japanese animation studios, each reflecting their own unique perspective and vision for the galaxy far, far away–including some returning stories, building on episodes from the first volume. The latest batch of studios working on Visions features a mix of both new talent and those who already worked on episodes for Vision‘s landmark debut season. Returning studios include Kamikaze Douga (Batman Ninja), which developed the incredibly popular short “The Duel” that introduced us to the ex-Sith Ronin; Trigger (Promare, Gridman, Kill La Kill, Dynazenon, and much more), which worked on both “The Twins” and “The Elder;” and Production I.G. (Ghost in the Shell, to say the least), which created “The Ninth Jedi;”Made in Abyss), which worked on “The Village Bridge.” Three of those shorts will get sequels, “The Duel: Payback”, “The Village Bride: The Lost Ones”, and “The Ninth Jedi: Child of Hope”. But a roster of new studios are also joining. Kamikaze Douga will work with Anima (.Hack, Sandland) on its sequel, but standalone newcomers include David Production (JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure); Wit Studio (Attack on Titan, Spy x Family); Polygon Pictures (Transformers Prime, Tron: Uprising, and best known in Star Wars for support work on Clone Wars and Resistance); and Project Studio Q (an CG house born from Evangelion and Gundam GQuuuuuuX studio Khara after its work on Evangelion 3.0+1.0: Thrice Upon a Time). Star Wars: Visions returns to Disney+ for Volume 3 on October 29. Want more io9 news?
