The daughter of a lightsaber-smith helps restore the Jedi Order in a distant, post-war future.

It also seems to be the right course for the Star Wars franchise: letting other creatives realize their own visions of the galaxy across the animation medium.

4/5

The Ninth Jedi is at its best when it keeps its recollections of the films to a relative minimum, echoing them in brief before spinning these familiar hallmarks into something new and exciting.

There are Jedi and Sith, lightsabers and the Force. Other than that, there’s really nothing in this series that a fan would recognize as a Star Wars story. No species, weapons, space ships, politics or settings. Why bother?

Seeing the people from the culture that inspires so much in Star Wars take it and reform it using those elements to make a new and fresh take on the franchise has me hoping that Lucasfilm should let Star Wars exist in more anime series

Strips away the baggage of the main saga and goes right back to the samurai roots that started it all. It is different, it is stylish, and it proves there are still great stories left to tell in this universe.

Something so freshly needed for Star Wars. No Skywalker, No Rey, No Grogu. The Art Style is like nothing we’ve ever seen either
