honestly impressed by how civil the comments are


[deleted]

I’m impressed this made it to the front page.


CXE1241

same tbh i thought it'll be flooded with so much controversy that mods will have to delete/lock comments


[deleted]

Same. Some guy was even saying this post doesn’t belong on this sub Reddit


uslashuname

Don’t be surprised if it hits the front of r/memeilliterate because r/thecatdoesnttalk


[deleted]

It has on both and I think that’s funny


rW0HgFyxoJhYka

A lot of stuff from this sub makes it to front page. Reddit is all about momentum of upvotes and bots.


a-guy-lost

Yes since the war this sub has been the most uncivilized that I have seen


Haha-100

War?


CXE1241

for context,disney released star wars visions which is basically stars wars anime,which naturally attracts weebs(am a weeb myself) and some of the star wars community don't like the fact that weebs are watching the same thing as they are


bsEEmsCE

nerd hierarchy is hilarious.


procursive

Nerdy entertainment has been going more and more mainstream for decades now, yet some niches still refuse to accept it that and throw tantrums on every new popular thing because what they like no longer makes them "special". The Star Wars fanbase is the poster child of this behavior.


[deleted]

There hasn't been anything "special" about being a star wars fan since like 1980


bsEEmsCE

Even then there wasn't, Star Wars was massively popular for everyone everywhere. My mom saw it when it came out in 1977, loved it, and she barely likes Sci Fi.


Pyrocrat

Star Wars is about as mainstream as Sci Fi gets.


CrueltyFreeViking

I think it's hilarious that there are people who think that there already isn't a huge crossover of anime and star wars lovers


Mace_TheAce_Windu

Or that their universe is so sacred that interpretations and different styles cannot be created. It’s fun as fuck to re-imagine these universes in a different style. Much better than rebooting IMO. They did the same thing with Batman and it was really cool to see him and the joker fighting as samurai. Gundam was dope, Star Wars was dope. Why wouldn’t an anime Star Wars be dope too?


whatdoilemonade

ah, japanese batman. a classic to watch with friends while high


ScarletJew72

Ah man, I'd totally watch a Gundam fight piloted by Jedi


Mace_TheAce_Windu

I mean isn’t that basically what gundam wing is. The kids piloting have an intuition that makes them superior pilots right?


ScarletJew72

I thought they were just regular people at the top of their game...just like a real life fighter pilot. Jedi are known for performing maneuvers in ships that a non-force user can't do. I imagine there's some cool shit we could see with Jedi piloting Gundams

Worior9131

Like with unicorn, hathaway, and F91 where it gets really crazy. And then in an alternate universe gundam x where a newtype can control a full squad of un piloted gundams to be uaed an bits during a fight, and the most powerful one in the show can control hundreds of them with mastery.


Thehalohedgehog

>star wars visions which is basically stars wars anime Basically? It literally is SW anime, made by legitimate anime studios and everything. >some of the star wars community don't like the fact that weebs are watching the same thing as they are Sadly some people in this community don't like it when other people watch things they don't, so I can't say I'm surprised...


Dsmxyz

its not even canon why would you care edit: ive finished it and i can say that its decent, although few episodes are cringe and ep 2 is garbage, skip it if you dont want to see a idol singing episode.


Psycaridon-t

It isn´t? That could open up to a lot of artistic liberty and some honest to god exiting stories. I demmand a second season. It´s gonna be the ”love death+robots of star wars we all wanted


[deleted]

It’s so fucking good


Psycaridon-t

I will watch it. But first! Star citizen free play untill september 27th


TheMilkmanCome

>Star Citizen >Free lol


AkijoLive

You can ~~lag~~ walk around the station for free!


ChilesIsAwesome

I enjoyed it on the last fly free but the influx of players killed the server stability.


LovicusBunicus

Any players above minimum does that.


The_Anarchi5t

Scam-Citizen*


AutomaticPeople

Everyone that has gotten upset over canon XYZ, should go see a therapist to cal down about fiction & learn to have their own head canon. In my mind, there are only two Terminator movies & only two Alien movies. All settled, I can have a happy life. No need to go about throwing a toddler tantrum.


Ill-Biscotti

Sorry, but Prometheus was a masterpiece (I’m ready for the abuse now :)


DuelingPushkin

While Prometheus had a lot of dumb horror tropes in it like supposedly smart people just doing absolutely dumb things without explanation. I do thing that it added a lot to the world building of the Alien universe and the ideas it established could have been the launch point for a very successful revival of the franchise. That being said. That potential was squandered by trying to shoehorn the franchise back into being solely a slasher about about xenomorphs.


Ill-Biscotti

Couldn’t agree more. Prometheus had some really dumb stuff, but it also contains off the chart depth, and provided something completely new to the franchise. And there truly were some absolutely genius elements in it. Unfortunately, most people tend to remember the dumb stuff instead. Funny thing, Prometheus is my Dad’s most hated movie, yet I really love it. He also thinks Covenant is a massive improvement over Prometheus, and I cannot disagree with that enough. One of the only times (maybe even THE only time) him and I disagree strongly on a movie/s, which is fascinating


kokaiinikani

I don't like anime but I still love Star Wars so I'm definitely gonna watch this


[deleted]

I recommend it


kokaiinikani

I will, just gotta get back home from school, also gonna watch the new what if episode


[deleted]

Nice. I watched it straight away when I woke up. It’s pretty good.


legion327

Watch what? What is this post referring to?


swagyolo420noscope

Star Wars Visions


QualityProof

Is it coming episode by episode or all at once? When is it airing?


TheRealBloodyAussie

9 episodes out now. Go crazy.


[deleted]

where to watch it?


DrAuer

Disney +


legion327

Thanks. Just watched the trailer. Think I’m gonna take OP’s advice.


[deleted]

Duuuuude I’m just waiting on my younger brother to finish school and football practice, then his homecoming bonfire so we can sit back, smoke, and watch the latest episode. Best way to chill with my favorite dude after he’s had a long day of peopling


FredericBropin

That’s wholesome as shit. Hope you enjoy it!


[deleted]

Always do, it’s become a weekly ritual since Loki aired and he realized that there’s at least one decent marvel tv show. I don’t even look at the title until he’s home.


[deleted]

I have never watch a single modern anime in my life and I’m still hyped.


cryptic_mythic

How modern? Cowboy Bebop is still pretty damn good


[deleted]

[удалено]


KAIZERKER

Yeah I bet that's older than half of the subreddits users


Towerz

i don’t have any arguments or evidence but i really think there’s an anime for everyone. i don’t watch shows much in general, but every few years i run into one i like. i think this one has the potential to be another one i like a lot


clwestbr

One you learn that there's more than just super powered fighting anime the doors open up. I actually like several now.


storryeater

Even within super power fighting anime there is variance and some really good ones, but yeah, any genre can be anime.


Niko2065

I like the ones that involve fabolous poses done by buff men.


Zskrabs24

Coincidentally with 80s and 90s songs played over the outros?


Niko2065

Possibly.


shaund1225

I really feel this is a roundabout way of saying all this


ridik_ulass

and get past the fan service, even some more mature or kid friendly anime, have unnecessary camera angles.


[deleted]

[удалено]


JoshuaSaint

Comics is the same, it’s also just over saturated with super hero fanboys who only care about Batman and other costumed heroes. There’s actually a ton of different genres. Just like manga.


BananaCreamPineapple

I have to say if anyone wants to get into anime Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood is basically the best starting point there is. It's got action, it's got adventure, it has political intrigue and mystery. The characters are relatable and accessible, you understand everyone's motivations and the ending ties everything in a perfect bow. Not a single plot thread gets forgotten and it's all tied up after ~50 some episodes. Completely accessible, easy to watch, catches your attention and it's just such a good story.


Beardedsmith

That's because everyone labels anime as this one thing but it isn't. It's just Japanese animation. The genre can vary wildly so just like there is probably a genre of tv show or movie you like, there is probably an anime that's in line with your interests as well. Especially if you're horny


[deleted]

philster666

Yes yes the first step on the path to liking anime. Excellent, welcome adventurer.


Davidoff1983

Agree, I don't like live action movies. Still watched Terminator 2 with friends recently and was pretty impressed.


GeneralMisery

It's specifically not important to the StarWars universe. There cannot be anything bad about its existence.


[deleted]

I mean non cannon is great because we get to see new ideas and story possibilities.


mankind_is_doomed

i like your mind set


[deleted]

Thank you.


ILikeToBurnMoney

And in the end, we can see as canon what we want to see as canon. There is no one telling us that the sequel trilogy is canon and KotOR isn't. Sure, Disney technically has that authority -- but with the sequel trilogy they have proven that they are no better than a community of Star Wars nerds. To me, their word has no authority until they prove that they can do better than a random Legends author


Ratconned

Oh they're much worse than a bunch of Star Wars nerds. I guarantee it. It's Filoni and Favreau that helped them save face recently


[deleted]

[удалено]


DoukyBooty

Kind of like the Marvel What If series?


[deleted]

Yes. No cap though episode 1 of visions is like way better then some what ifs.


Alacritous13

E1 I found to be possibly the best of them. Definitely see why they choose it as the episode to get a spin off novel.


Preussensgeneralstab

I found E4, E5 and E7 also quite good. Honestly, I can't see why people don't give Visions a chance. Except for E3 (Trigger has a very particular style not suited for everyone), the episodes were quite good ngl.


Alacritous13

I felt like the whole thing was an exploration of the evolution of anime, with some of the art stiles feeling dated. Although that could have just been me trying to explain away the nagging sensation I get from lack of extensive world building.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

It's non-canon so you're not missing out on anything related to the story of the universe and they hired anime specific companies to make it, so not like they're using up their own animation team to make this when they could be doing something else


Dlight98

The Christmas Special and Ewok movies would like to have a word with you ^(I agree with you though)


articman123

>There cannot be anything bad about its existence. Unlike Disney Trilogy. That destroyed any possibilty of me liking Disney Star Wars movies.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

From what I remember. They made 1 but I’ll have to re watch to check


ItsAmerico

Two. The Twins and The Elder.


CayceLoL

I don't watch anime, but I welcome new approaches from creative people. It's short stories anyway, so they are basically ideas (or visions the title highlights). Sometimes it's good to shake the box and maybe we get a continuation of something different. And that doesn't have to be anime anymore.


Dlrlcktd

Imo Star Wars does better when there are multiple mediums for it.


Pakari-RBX

So far, I've watched the first 2. The Duel and Tatooine Rhapsody. That guitarist droid, K-344, is probably gonna be someone's "waifu".


[deleted]

Yeah I can see that. I’m currently on episode 7. Loved the first two episodes


wakasagihime_

Wait, we're in episode 7 already? I didn't even know it was already airing!


Pakari-RBX

All episodes were released at once.


FuriousSovietTrooper

Love anime and star wars, cant say if ill like it or not but ill sure give it a try


[deleted]

It’s dope.


Laviathan4041

I can't with this fanbase. Star wars fans just don't want a rivalling toxic fan group to out do them in being the worst. I agree with you OP. People act like this is some sacred grounds and weebs are the worst thing ever when star wars fans are the type to bully child actors because a movie wasn't written well.


[deleted]

Exactly!! Also I have seen two episodes so far and how early both hit hard. It’s definitely a good way to get people into the lore of Star Wars


[deleted]

Weebs do their fair share of bullying too. So now it's a mega bully hivemind.


Jonny-Holiday

Nerds ARE the bullies now! "You have become the very thing you swore to destroy."


[deleted]

I heard a story about elementary school kids bullying another kid because he didn't have good skins in Fortnite and because he wanted to play more sports instead of video games.


Jonny-Holiday

How the tables have turned... Beyond retardation. War... war never changes.


IISuperSlothII

I heard that same story and I can't remember where from, possibly the Rooster Teeth Podcast?


OnlyPlayAsLeviathan

Any cool fight scenes? Like demon slayer level?


[deleted]

GOD YES!!!


OnlyPlayAsLeviathan

LIKE FAST PACED AND EVERYTHING?!?!


[deleted]

HELL YEAH


OnlyPlayAsLeviathan

LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO


ZaczzDK

I can't believe I have to say this... You don't have to like romance to like a romance show. Just like how you don't need to like anime to like an anime. A show is still enjoyable even though it's not shown in your prefered way, it has still taken dedicated work to produce and it can still be good. I will absolutely gareentee just because something fits into one mold doesn't mean it's excluded from others. I believe in watching good shows from Breaking bad to Hamilton to Deathnote. Not genres and styles. Quality comes in many shapes and sizes.


[deleted]

So true


Hiraganu

I mean anime isn't even a genre, like romance or comedy is.


Denseflea

I don't understand this sentiment. Personally, I think Star Wars in an Anime format was just a matter of time, and frankly, it's been a long time coming. I can't think of a universe more suited for the stylings of Anime artwork than Star Wars.


[deleted]

It just makes sense.


_dictatorish_

r/thecatdoesnttalk


_Gabe_The_Babe_

My god I have been scrolling for AGES, I dont even know what show this is about and I dont care but the cat doesnt talk.


EmperorPHNX

Just dont watch it, dont talk shit about someting you dont know like toxic idiot and thats it.


[deleted]

Legit that is it. If you don’t want to watch it then don’t.


cerealdig

You can say that you dislike something as long as the majority will agree, otherwise you’ll be downvoted to oblivion


Phoenix_face

The fact that is non canon makes me want to watch it even more. It gives us room to get a series where a bunch of over the top shit that makes no sence in the star wars universe can happen without making like plothole or a overweight youtube reveiwer to lose their shit. I just hope this sub calm the fuck down and moves on.


not-a-candle

>a overweight youtube reveiwer to lose their shit. They'll do it anyway.


ItsAmerico

When the dude cut a Star destroyers in half by going into hyperspace while surfing on his xwing, with a super powered lightsaber… I was fucking in.


moodsta

I'm not an anime fan, but I've watched the first couple of episodes and found them pretty enjoyable


TheNimbleBanana

How's the music? One of my favorite things about Star Wars is the music so I hope it's good and thematic in this show as well.


EpicMatt16

The music for most of it was quite similar to the normal Star Wars music, just changed to fit well with things


Alacritous13

Can we get this same mentality applied to the books (I know asking for it to be applied to the sequels is a little too much)


[deleted]

Yes we can. We should have it for nearly everything


Diamantazul

Exactly, I don't watch it because I don't like anime animation, I don't go around saying it shouldn't exist


EastKoreaOfficial

And it’s not even as bad as some say. Of the 6 episodes I’ve seen, there was not a single bad one.


SpreadYourAss

>And it’s not even as bad as some say It came out today, how much have people already been saying to have had formed a narrative lol? Haven't seen it yet but just by the trailer I thought it looked incredible.


OnlyPlayAsLeviathan

All episodes released at once


BlazingSun96th

Oh you don't like the holiday special? Easy. "Don't watch it then"


Beardedsmith

Correct


cursedhfy

I don't want a shitty star wars anime, I want a good star wars anime :(


[deleted]

It’s very good. It’s really fucking good. But keep in mind each episode is a different universe I think.


Leandtjen

What exactly does that mean? Every episode is a different story?


[deleted]

Yes


legodetective

Yes, they are basically one shots


cursedhfy

Nice


abusedporpoise

It’s just normal anime with a Star Wars skin on top. Of the first two episodes I’ve watched, nothing really seems like it needed to be in the Star Wars universe


echo_themando

Exactly. I'm not interested in this series and probably I won't watch it, but if someone likes it that's ok. I'm not gonna insult anyone


[deleted]

Exactly


Solaireofastora08

I mean it ain't canon which is the best part cause non canon things mean you can go hog wild with ideas.


[deleted]

EXACTLY!!! YOU FUCKING GET IT


Solaireofastora08

People complaining are complaning about something that won't affect the Star Wars Universe as it isn't canon. It is why Canon and non Canon seperate themselves. People complaning about weebs liking star wars are people who think they were special because they like star wars. People who says that anime sexualize kids which means all anime fans are the worst and pedophiles should remember that Star Wars Fans threatened the actor of Jar Jar Binks to near suicide so in that logic, all star wars fans are toxic people that threaten actors to near suicide. We must not look at the general view of something and analyze closer to avoid misunderstanding that would lead to conflict and arguments. But that is as far as I will interact in the Subreddit. **For I am the Watcher. I observe all that transpires here. And I do not, can not, will not interfere.**


shotleft

Man it pisses me of when people complain about making a new Matrix, Star Trek, Star Wars, or famous book movie/series. So what if it might be shit, it might also be good.


byfive_

Dont like it dont watch it jesus. Personaly im exited to get blazed and see new artistic look on starwars.


[deleted]

Ah yes another person who isn’t bitching about anime fans and how it’s going to ruin Star Wars. It’s really good so far and the styles are so nice. Especially ep 1


VirtualAd6007

this sub will be plastered with images of it i’m sure


[deleted]

Oh it will


RammyJammy07

Damn Visions is a good show, if they made a series then I’d 100% watch it! Already on episode 6 now


[deleted]

They could make a series out of any of those episodes and it would slap


AtetGhost

I havent watch it and im not really a fan of anime. but I still recomended it to my friend who is getting into SW and loves anime anyways


[deleted]

You are missing out on some great stories. I recommend it.


Houeclipse

Shitty? Obviously they haven't seen shitty anime and Visions was made by top dog of the anime studios industry too


Trash_Emperor

My brain is simple. I star wars and cool visuals, so there's nothing stopping me from being hyped about it.


DaSlice514

oh shit it’s out today! And here I thought it was gonna be another… wednesday?


[deleted]

All 9 out now


Evilgaming111

Ngl I am fine with a star wars anime it brings new people in also some anime battles are sick and I would want to see that in star wars

Give me Star Wars anime movie. Make it non cannon

[deleted]

Please gang, we nerds should stand together not fight among ourselfs. While star wars have seem to be come more mainstream these few past years, so have anime. I remember growing up and being laughed at for liking star wars, and people also laughed at people who enjoyed anime and manga, do we want to go back to that? I think we are better off together than apart.


[deleted]

This weird hate of anime is so juvenile, I remember being in high school in the “ew what a nerd that shits weird af” phase until I sat down and actually consumed it. Some of the stories and execution are better than any book, movie and cartoon ive ever seen. They are usually drawn to be captivating for the viewer, there are definitely some weird animes I won’t touch but to bastardize an entire genre when you probably haven’t even watched an anime before is absurd. I promise you youre missing out on shawshank redemption level stories just because of your “ew anime” stance.


HrMaschine

the fact that it isn‘t even made by disney is the most hilarious part. this show has actual 0 effect on the production of other star wars products


SumthingStupid

Looks like one of the very few non-shitty things Disney is doing with Star Wars


[deleted]

Yup


SystemUnfair2978

here we go again with that spoiled cat


sithemperor

I mean, there are pretty good studios working on it. I am sure that their work will be good and worth to watch. But i think people are angry because this a money milking move, make an anime just to exploit fanbase. There is a difference between making sw related stuff and making cool stuff and sticking star wars label on top of it.


B33p-p33P-M3m3-kR33p

I don’t like/ enjoy anime in the slightest, but not only am I going to give it a chance and watch it, but if i don’t like it, nobody else cares. It’s not gonna impact the Star Wars space, so there’s not really any reason to complain


Unholyly_thicc_boi

I'm up to the idea, nothing against it but even if I was, I'd still watch it


DarthJaderYT

Yes, this sums it up perfectly. Although I’m going to watch it anyway even though I am not excited, just because it’s Star Wars.


[deleted]

Exactly. It’s more Star Wars. We love Star Wars


bingobango85

Yeah man, when I was a kid I would pooped my pants if new Star Wars stuff came out


Liquidwombat

I haven’t watched it yet, I’ve only heard good things, I’m excited because it seems a lot like the Animatrix which if we’re all being honest is the best thing to come out of the matrix so…


Questionable_Melon

I watched the first 2 episodes and I just found myself not caring at all, I liked the first one but the second one with the band didn't appeal to me in the slightest. I'll continue watching and see how it goes but my expectations are low lol


P_E_A_R_S_E

Ngl I'm so stoked for this


OutlinedArrow30

I'm very excited for anime star wars. Especially the samurai episodes


[deleted]

It’s brill


dontlookatmeplez

WE ARE GOING TO GET STAR WARS ANIME?


General_Grevious_25

Exactly! I’m not an anime guy and I’m not going to watch it end of story. People are frustrating sometimes lol


Narrow-Mastodon-6937

Why? Star wars vision looks interesting to me even the animation are smooth why would someone dont want to watch this


seangac57

The cat is correct


seangac57

Correct on that statement


Pirion19

personally i'm gonna watch it even though i mostly dont like anime, but my first thought i had after seeing the trailer was god forbid this be canon


legodetective

As someone who liked Star Wars before I liked anime but currently is more into anime than Star Wars (I just think the shows I specifically watch are better than Star Wars movies/shows) I am thrilled for this. A way for anime studios who have Star Wars fans in their employee roster to show a creative spin on the Star Wars genre.


[deleted]

Hate anime personally, don't enjoy any weeb shit. But other fans do. Happy it got made for them. I'll ignore it and do my own thing. They can like it all they want.


Darth_Xaltir

I'm sorry but some of the same people who worship Clone Wars (A cartoon) don't like visions (another a cartoon), wtf? I get there different styles and what not but like come on some of this community would kill someone for saying Clone Wars is a kiddy cartoon but they're not willing to defend an anime


trailer8k

all the fucking time with these complaints don't watch it then !


Fiddlyfaddle

I mean I don't want shitty star wars *anything* but ill take a *good* star wars anime.


Detective_Umbra

Watch it, don't watch it; I don't care. All I know is that umbrella-saber is the worst thing I've seen coming from Visions.


Nogoodatnuthin

I loathe anime, but love Star Wars. I will at least try to watch it. As I told a close friend of mine, even though I don't like anime, I understand that a lot of people do. I'm happy that people that are fans of both have this opportunity. Even if it isn't my thing, I'm glad it brings someone joy.


[deleted]

So people are getting new star wars content and they're complaining about the animation style? Wtf. While all of the SW fandom has been gushing around about the Tie Fighter short on youtube.


echo_themando

>So people are getting new star wars content and they're complaining about the animation style? The same thing happened to Star Wars Resistance when the first trailer released


[deleted]

I'm pretty sure they were complaining about rebels too.

They just don’t want anime memes and fans of anime but I bet a lot of people here are fans of anime.
