"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?

"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!

"You're no longer a Jedi. You're not even a man. You're just a machine..."

Volume 3 is finally here and it opens with a stellar return to one of our favorite characters—The Ronin. We discuss everything we love about this episode, including the historical inspirations for Aneé-san, our love for Anzellans and Ewoks, and why we're so happy Visions is back.

We also talk about our disappointment with the "Filmmaker Focus" featurettes this time around and our hope that we return to the focus feature
