"Somehow you survived. You know what that means? It means there must be a reason you're still alive."

We're flying solo as we wind down our coverage of Star Wars: Visions Volume 3 and we're talking about one of our favorite episodes this volume has to offer. From the incredible music by Towa Tei to the adorable introduction to the force-sensitive, Pokemon like Woopas, we adored everything Project Studio Q gave us with this episode.

"May I always be at one with the force."

Polygon Pictures is no strangers to Star Wars animation, having worked on both The Clone Wars and Star Wars: Resistance. But how will their first outing in the Visions series fair?

Helping us take on this story of a hot-headed, selfish Jedi padawan in some of the most gorgeous animation and art direction in Volume 3 is Russ Moran from Kaiju ComicCast! Russ isn't just an expert in Kaiju, he's also a massive Star Wars! We talk to Russ about his history with Star Wars, why his favorite character is Emperor Palpatine, what makes a good Star Wars villain, and why the Sith are so damn cool.

"If it wasn't for me, you'd have been frozen in carbonite a long time ago!"

It's Studio Wit's first outing with Star Wars: Visions, and they're taking on one of the most beloved tropes in Star Wars canon: Bounty Hunters. Does their split-personality droid and haunted human companion stack up?

To help us answer that question and talk all about this action-packed episode, we're joined by Chris Osborne from Play Comics & Sugar, Spite, and Everything is Fine! We talked all about the mecha-droideika, the banger of a closing credits song, and even dreamed up dual-personality droids for ourselves!

"Will you be my smuggler?"

"The Smuggler" is Studio Trigger's third entry in the Star Wars: Visions pantheon, but will it match up to their Volume 1 entries "The Elder" and "The Twins"?

To tackle the prolific anime studio and action packed episode, we had to call in the big guns. Joining us today are the always hilarious anime experts Nic, Nisho, and Stik from Together We Anime! We chatted with the crew about their history with Star Wars and what makes a "good" anime in their minds.

Then, they helped us find anime connections we wouldn't have found otherwise, break down the surprising voice talent in this episode including Judith Light, and we all scratched our head at the end-scene...proposal?

"This is the best birthday ever!"

Battling "T0-B1" and "Aau's Song" for the title of "Most Adorable Episode of Visions," it's Kinema Citrus's "Yuko's Treasure!"

Joining us to help break down this delightful and family-friendly feature is none other than Hamish Steele, creator of the DeadEndia series, Dead End: Paranormal Park, and his newest graphic novel Go Man: Champion of Earth!

We talked all about what this episode gets right, what we'd love to see more of, and even some juicy details about Hamish's own connections with a galaxy far, far away!

"Only someone who is truly strong has the ability to reveal their weakness to others."

Kara returns in this sequel episode to Volume 1's "The Ninth Jedi"! In her search for her father, Kara finds herself separated from her new Jedi squad, but joined by one of our favorite new droid pals, Teto.

To help us talk all about our love for Teto and break down whether this episode gives us something new or more of the same, we're joined once again by our fellow Glitterjaw podcast, Tyler from Fear Coded, a horror podcast that looks at horror movies, books, games, and podcasts through a queer lens.

"There's more to reality than what we see. And not everything seen is true."

We're so delighted to see more of F, the protagonist of Volume 1's The Village Bride! And to help us gush over another Kinema Citrus banger, we were joined by the incredible Jordan Maison, writer, cartoonist, and one of the biggest Star Wars: Visions fans this side of Coruscant!

Plus, we talked with Jordan all about ReelOutreach, his non-profit which believes every kid deserves a day at the movies. We're such big fans of the work Jordan is doing at ReelOutreach, and encourage everyone to go learn more!
