Star Wars: Visions Volume 2 | Trailer Reaction

[@pavcueto]

The face's marks on the stop motion animation characters are because they are based on the Selk'nam, indigenous people of chilean Patagonia, who used to paint their bodies in mesmerizing patterns to represent spirits. The authors just said they wanted to use the Star Wars universe to depict the story of colonization of south america. I can't wait to watch it! Greetings from Chile!

[@KyleKatarnChannel]

Oh wow that's such a cool connection and way to represent an indigenous culture! I can't wait to see it!

[@danymann95]

Thank you, I thought it was mapuche but everyday you learn something new, I read it is severely endangered and has only 1 speaker left :’( Salutations from Mexico

[@pablomg9742]

the stopmotion short ( Kid vs Tie Fighter) is from my country....CHILE. What a great surprise.

[@kafros13]

As Guillermo del Toro has been saying, animation is a medium; not a genre. I am so here for watching these!

[@CarbonMage]

Wasn't expecting Star Wars Wallace & Grommit when I woke up today, but I'm glad we're here

[@watchmesquatch]

The only one that looks bad. 😂

[@krono5el]

This is why animation is perfect for star wars because those fizzle sticks never looked cooler colliding than in these visions :D

[@GamerNA12345]

Disney doing the red logo for Lucasfilm on both Ahsoka and now Visions.

[@MakingSomeTea]

All the animation looks insane. Definitely excited for the Wallace and Gromit Star Wars.

[@Senbonzakura776]

Am so stoked for this! It all looks amazing!

[@margote7965]

I thought the funny one was familiar. Checked and it is Aardman studios. That Wallace and Gromit feel is unmistakable. I am English so it is great they are expanding from just the Japanese.

[@scottreyes5232]

I’ve said it many times…. The score and composers they use are always on point to get me emotional in these trailers!! The various animation styles are like you said, a creative celebration of this franchise! All of them stunning and unique. Can’t wait to watch them and your reaction videos on May the Fourth ( be with you 😉 ) !

[@eawhite782]

That's not OMR Studio, it's Studio Mir. They did the animation for The Legend of Korra (minus some episodes in season 2), Voltron Legendary Defender, The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf and DOTA: Dragon's Blood. They're a South Korean studio.

[@atavisticempire3473]

That score is super intense. Looks so cool.

[@Dracobyte]

¡Arriba el estudio Punkrobot! ¡Arriba Chile🇨🇱 y Latinoamérica!

[@supremefankai5480]

Ardman? Madlads getting a crack at the setting. I want to know all the studios.

[@benoitcecyre7081]

Also worth noting, Studio Mir is a Korean studio that did The Legend of Korra, The Boondocks , Voltron Legendary Defender and Lookism, among other things.

[@GoatLuffy_97]

I love anime so the first season was right in my wheelhouse. However, expanding this to other animation studios worldwide will showcase just how incredible the medium is and how many different visions (😂) there are in it.

[@Starwarslegorob]

Animated Star Wars is my favorite! The content is amazing!

[@Zagzeroth]

When I saw this the first time, I don’t know why, but the animation styles, and the quotes etc made me tear up. Random emotional hits, gotta love em

[@benoitcecyre7081]

Get to know Cartoon Saloon. I immediately recognized their hand drawn style in the trailer . All of their movies were nominated for best animated feature film. I've heard some called them the Irish Ghibli. Their movies are beautiful. Wolfwalkers is the one I would recommend the most.

[@ervicito77]

As a Star Wars fan and student of animation, this second season looks so good, it's making me so damn happy! 🤩

[@davidfieldsend]

Katarn i highly recommend checking out the Visions panel from today at Celebration, they had reps from each studio discussing each short, it looks and sounded amazing!

[@jeffkrug9045]

It's cool they are branching out to other studios not just from Japan. I think it will appeal to more people who don't really like anime.

[@carpediem9750]

Thats the main reason why i didnt watch first seaso 😅n

[@k3n12ock]

@@carpediem9750 pretty dumb reason

[@carpediem9750]

@@k3n12ock your answer is exactly the reason why i stay far of anime community ... Toxic childrens who can't handle no one like anime and spit nonesense like You did, thanks proving im right for staying away

[@mitkoogrozev]

Yeah. I tried watching the first season , and even though there are some anime series and movies I like, I did not like that all the episodes were anime-like, and some of the anime-type writing/tropes meshed with star wars made me cringe, so I could not finish it. This season 2 looks more interesting, much more varied, and I particularly like what I'm seeing from the first one shown in the trailer.

[@jeffkrug9045]

@@mitkoogrozev I agree. There was only like four episodes I liked from season 1

[@Cinema_Fiends]

So stoked for season two I can’t wait 🤩🤩

[@traviscollins152]

I am so hyped for Cartoon Saloon’s involvement! They are one of my favorite studios working today. The only way this could have been better would if Laika had contributed.

[@synthesize5618]

I can’t wait for the Aardman ones haha

[@rebelwolf39]

I can't wait for the ones from Aardman.

[@Gyrospire]

This time around they decided to use world-wide studios. Only one of those is a Japanese anime studio (Dart Shtajio). According to the website, the rest of them are from Spain, Ireland, Chile, UK, South Korea, France, India, and South Africa. The Dart animation collaborated directly with Lucasfilm for theirs. I am a MASSIVE Japanese anime fan, and while I would love another season of all anime, 1. I understand it isn't everyone's thing, and 2. I LOVE that they are essentially turning the Visions IP into an opportunity to let non-Disney, yet otherwise major and will known studios, make what may as well be high production fan fiction. It means there is a lot of love put into it.

[@anthonyyoutubefan7567]

Yes, I see the love these non-Disney studios have for George Lucas' universe. I also appreciate the strong lack of "agenda" in their storytelling. All win-wins. Watching these vignettes is going to be like experiencing a Star Wars fever dream.

[@Snfflbx]

I love the Star Wars Boondocks, lmfao.

[@AirbenderHawk]

KRIFF YES!!!! Aardman animation will definitely be an epic watch the moment drops this May! Better yet, May 4's the Star Wars holiday so I'm gonna have a fun time.

[@undeenwrites]

Amazing! Cannot wait to watch along with you and Bendu 😁

[@picktrees4206]

So cool, SO HPED. loved seeing star wars anime and really hope they produce a full length series

[@Vaeshkar]

Great to be alive!

[@nicholasarkis6116]

This looks absolutely incredible. Just beautiful and amazing and I love Star Wars.

[@Sabatuar]

Looking forward to the Cartoon Saloon one. They're usually really good with stories.

[@ShadowMoon96]

Every animation style combined 👌🏾

[@RRaxor]

Eugene Lee Yang from The Try Guys will be voicing a character named Toul in the episode "Journey to the Dark Head"

[@S40Games]

the first sith guy looks like concept art of General Grievous

[@thefirstofthelastones8952]

And they said animation is for children... Amateurs.

[@carpediem9750]

This is art 😍😍😍😍😍

[@jedijack0577]

“What was that punk?”

[@gracecalis5421]

Me, watching episode 1 of Castlevania and getting traumatized: They said what now?

[@watchmesquatch]

The only people who say that are adults with a child's IQ. Animations is limitless, while live action is horribly limited.

[@artry93]

@thefirstofthelastones8952 Haha....Have they at least seen Adult Swim, Neflix own Animation and Anime, Crunchyroll and YT Animation? Animation and Anime are all ages rated from PG to MA, depending on the content features included writers in them.

[@busydarthnooox8290]

Yeah that first guy remind me some sith from old republic. Can't wait for May the fourth!!!

[@eat_pray_porg8450]

Can't wait to Volume 2 to come out!

[@OneRandomVictory]

I'm all in on the Studio Mir one. The El Guiri one looks cool as well with the brushstroke style.

[@neofulcrum5013]

This is looking incredible

[@anthonyyoutubefan7567]

As always, Master Katarn, your reactions are something special. This looks even more expansive and diverse than Season 1. Yes, I got serious Malgus vibes from that first Sith. I actually consider some of this material as more canon than a portion of what Disney is actually presenting as canon, since 2012. I've included 4 or 5 of the tales and characters from Season 1 as part of my official head canon...I'm sure the same will happen for Season 2. Between this and Young Jedi Adventures, We're going to be getting Our Animation fix from both sides. Kyle, have you heard that Return Of The Jedi will be being re-released in theaters on April 28th? I'm ecstatic with that news. I would LOVE IT, if We got to see one or two of Season 2's Visions vignettes before the main attraction of the 1983 remastered film. I'd also ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT, if theaters offered a double feature, showing a few of the best chapters from The Mandoverse, that connect to ROTJ. May The Force Be With You, Good Sir.

[@chrishitchen3503]

Apparently Denis Lawson is back to voice Wedge in the Aardman story.

[@jimgrote304]

Let’s hope he gets a bigger part than he had in Rise of Skywalker!

[@TK_Brainslug]

loved the wookie ripping off the arms his trandoshan puppet. BTW why hasn't disney done a proper star wars animated movie yet?!

[@waynech370]

The Aardman short is going to be funny as usual. And I couldn't help but notice the orange sabre which Lola (I believe is her name) in the short at the very beginning. Looking forward to them all as volume one was awesome.

[@tonyramos1031]

Love the different styles this season, reminds me of Love Death + robots

[@lorduldar]

We saw in the celebration the Aardman studios one and it was so funny! I really loved it! Cannot way for the rest!

[@christopherhanton6611]

O MY THIS IS VERY DIFFERENT I LIKE IT

[@tamashorvath224]

The opening is very Archane like.

[@rezkel7404]

Its fun trying to figure out which studios are doing what, The first one feels like Fortische or maybe the studio that makes Spiderverse, Pretty sure the Irish studio that Made Wolfwalker and Bread winner is one. Studio Mir very easy, Aardman is fun, I feel like Laika of Coraline and Paranorman made the other stop motion, looks like their aesthetic.

[@balit868]

U forgot about punkrobot, the chilean one

[@rezkel7404]

@@balit868 I don't actually know many studios and the only ones I got right was Cartoon Saloon, Mir and Aardman. But it was fun to try and guess based off my limited knowledge.

[@jdahl06]

The Duel got a novel? Awesome!

[@enzovalencia2762]

im waiting on mando reaction CAUSE I KNOW YOU WILL ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT

[@CypherDivine]

What they should to is ret-con the sequel trilogy and have it turn out that Rey was having visions/meditating on a possible future. Then you keep the stuff that works and scrap what didn't, incorporate more content from legends, and prevent people wanting to throw away all the merch and stuff they already purchased. Then I would do it anime CGI style; that way you have the intellectual property to use the characters without needing the actual actors to reprise their roles.

[@AuntySocialQueen]

I fully expect to see Wallace and Gromit in the background of the Aardman one 😂

[@TheeWandaStan]

omr studio = studio mir same studio that does avatar the last airbender/the legend of korra

[@tristanmilner9511]

"Malgus and Plo Koon together" Potara earrings or Fusion dance?

[@AXP1303]

Hey Kyle you should make a reaction video to the fan made Tukk Tales. It looks like something Dave Filoni would make.

[@thebeaverqueen2096]

I’m not a crazy anime person and wasn’t that crazy over Visions but… there’s a but. Some of them were amazing. Also this trailer looks absolutely amazing and I can’t wait to watch it. I am hyped!!!!

[@LordDagovere]

Lets go fam!!!

[@brucedstein1388]

the sith at the beginning reminds me of the inqisitor from Tales of the jedi

[@therion108]

Not OMR Studio.. It's Studio MiR. They did Legend of Korra : ) Also I'm a big fan of Cartoon Saloon! So hyped for this פ

[@Joshsclips]

Patreon thanks you too :)

[@dungeonmaster16]

Hoping the fandom menace wasn’t too big that they stave off from Japanese anime studios. Really wanted to see if they go back to expand on the ninth Jedi story from s1. Plus rumors back then was Disney is making a deal with Production I.G. The animators of ninth Jedi for something.

[@jedijack0577]

I recognized Aardman immediately but I didn’t want to say anything until I knew for sure (I’m so happy it is) Also I swear I’m not the only one who actually thought that guy was Malgus Edit: I just looked up the other studios earlier and I actually have seen (or heard) of more of their work than I thought like I’ve heard of Legend of Korra and Voltron: Legebdary Defender, I’ve heard of Trollhunters, I haven’t seen the newest Pokémon movie but I’ve heard of it, But I actually watched Breadwinner and I remember enjoying it (I was reading the book in middle school and that just happened to come out)

[@Maverick0420]

Wish there was at least 1 Japanese anime studio this season.

[@watchmesquatch]

Yeah. The only Japanese studio is American owned. Kinda lame. But they got the Korean Studio that animated Korra, so that's cool.

[@Heavensrun]

Studio Mir did Avatar and Korra.

[@TheChi9ski]

This looks way more promising. I am a minority in this but the first season didn't do much for me.

[@Heavensrun]

I really wish they'd do something expanding the other stories. Ronin got a book, because it was cool, but I thought it was the least interesting take on the setting.

[@mikenelson1624]

👍✨🫶🧡💫✌️

[@Papacam-pc1ix]

I just can't get on board with it. It just weird to me

[@csorange]

This season or volume of Visions look much darker! Really liked the first part of the trailer!

[@TheAvelN]

I'm probably upset a lot of whiners with my observation... SW, always a cool fairy tale for one and all, is turning into a social agenda tool now. There is NONE of the white male characters in the trailer. NOT A SINGLE ONE.

[@Jaredesq]

Vol 1 was such a big meh in the end. 3, maybe 4 good ones, and rest so forgettable.

[@vrtrahan]

Must be anime. Too discombobulated without a stylistic foundation.
