1/5

Summary
In the days after the Jedi Purge a droid dreams on a distant world of one day becoming a Jedi Knight.
This along with Tatooine Rhapsody are the worst episodes of Star Wars Visions for sure, this is mainly due to the fact they don’t seem to understand the tone of the show, and instead try and pitch a small children alternative. I am not saying Star Wars isn’t for kids but a lot of the franchise’s content has a certain grit to it, think of The Mandalorian or the live action films, this just doesn’t translate into fare for toddlers which is what this episode goes for.
This is furthered by the art style which again doesn’t fit the aesthetic of the series, of the first six episodes this is easily the worst as everything just looks too clean. Of all the art styles across the episodes I have seen so far this was the hardest one to adjust to.
The story itself aims for heart, but there is nothing of substance here that you have not seen before, and done better. I didn’t really care about any of the characters and found myself questioning just skipping the episode several times over whilst watching.
Overall, poorly judged and certainly a lack of understanding of what Star Wars is.
Pros.
It is watchable
Cons.
None of the characters are memorable
The plot feels been there and done that
The art style is jarring
It doesn’t fit
