US EditionEvery 'Star Wars: Visions Volume 3' episode, ranked from worst to best
- Today, Star Wars: Visions Volume 3 began streaming on Disney+, continuing Lucasfilm anthology series that lets animation teams craft original Star Wars shorts.
- With a near-even mix of returning and new studios, Volume 3 leans back toward its roots, facing a creative balancing act between fresh perspectives and Visions' successful groundwork.
- Three of the nine shorts are sequels—'The Duel: Payback' by Kamikaze Douga and Anima, 'The Ninth Jedi: Child of Hope' by Production I.G., and 'The Lost Ones' by Kinema Citrus, with 'Payback' seen as the weakest.
- While the anthology continues to impress visually, critics say it often feels familiar rather than transformative, as volume three still delivers jaw-dropping spectacle and storytelling, but struggles to match volumes one and two’s enchantment.
- David Production's 'BLACK' closes the season as a bold, experimental standout, using manic visuals and Stormtrooper imagery in a 13-minute arthouse mood piece by Shinya Ohira.
