Welcome at Star Wars Insider Magazine September 2021 Issue
It’s easy to get stuck in a rut, to find yourself doing the same old thing, day in and day out. We’ve all experienced something of that feeling over the past couple of years, but thankfully we’ve also had new Star Wars stories to lift and sustain us during these difficult months. As the saga has stretched its wings and moved beyond the Skywalker story, we’ve reveled in the delights of The Mandalorian (2019-present) and The Bad Batch (2020-present) on Disney+, while The High Republic continues to thrill and surprise readers across the world. Now an exceptional series of short anime films, about to debut on Disney+, is set to shake things up even further with a unique take on the galaxy far, far away.
Actually, that should read “new takes,” as Star Wars: Visions —a startling reimagining of the Star Wars galaxy in Japanese anime form—is the work of numerous creatives who’ve crafted nine distinct and original tales that are like a splash of ice-cold mountain water on your face, fresh from the five lakes of Mount Fuji. This issue, to commemorate the launch of the new series, we look back at the influence of Japanese cinema and culture on the Star Wars saga since its earliest days.
The wealth of such Star Wars information available to us today is, in no small part, attributable to the research of writer and historian Jonathan Rinzler, who sadly passed away in August 2021. Rinzler’s exceptional work on books covering the making of the original Star Wars trilogy has always been an inspiration to everyone here at Insider, and I’d like to dedicate this issue to his memory. The Force will be with you, Jonathan. Always.
