When is the Star Wars: Visions Season 2 release date?
Star Wars Visions Season 2 release date is set for May 4th, 2023. It must be said that Season 1 was very well received (96% on Rotten Tomato, 79/100 on Metacritic). On the fan side, opinions differ. Some praise how the spin-off offers a new perspective on the world of Star Wars, with varied stories and a different art style for each installment. Others regret that the quality of the animation of the episodes is not accompanied by scenarios and missions at their peak.
Where to watch Star Wars: Visions Season 2 in France?
Star Wars: Visions Season 2 will be available on the Disney+ streaming platform. The series is part of the wave of projects announced during Star Wars Celebration 2023. To breathe new life into the universe of the saga, these new titles intend to explore every aspect of the space opera. So we were treated to the announcement of The Acolyte, which deals with the rivalry between the Jedi and the Sith during the High Republic; that of Ahsoka, designed to highlight the character of the same name and characters from Star Wars Rebels; or even Skeleton Crew with his group of orphans in search of their home planet.
What is the story of Star Wars: Visions Season 2?
What sets Star Wars: Visions apart are the stories it tells. Each episode is unique, both in terms of animation and scenario. In the first season we could discover adventures like that of Ronin (Episode 1) in a Star Wars-style samurai, or the story of Jedi Tsubaki (Episode 9), whose story is reminiscent of a certain Anakin Skywalker.
The stories in Season 2 of Visions are not canon of the Star Wars saga. So if you were expecting to discover new elements of the work’s lore, this series won’t satisfy your desire. Despite this, this series is a good way to discover the universe in a new light, like Batman Ninja, who showed the batman in an animated film set in the heart of feudal Japan.
Who are the creative minds behind Star Wars: Visions Season 2?
At the top of the project we have Kathleen Kennedy (producer and president of Lucasfilm) by her side James Waugh etc Josh Rimes (executive producers).
On the page of the various Japanese animation studios mobilized, we find the studios that have accompanied us during the first season:
- Production IG (Kuroko no rejection, Haikyuu!!)
- Colorful studio (One Piece: Film Red, Sword Art Online: Scale of Order)
- Deduction (Cyberpunk Edgerunner, Kill La Kill)
- Geno studio (Golden Kamuy, Bucchigire!)
- Science Saru (Devilman: Crybaby, Kimi to Nami ni Noretara)
