As someone who produces art, it's hard to not appreciate something, even as small as this. Even if you don't know much about starwars, or the companies involved, it's alright, because it's such a short watch time. 2 and a half minutes isn't bad, especially for this animation. Obviously, there isn't much to really "invest" in, but it keeps the calm "short and sweet" type of feel, and it gives the reader room to infer what the characters are doing or thinking, or to perceive the actions they take. it is something nice to think about !!!!
Some people will have thoughts as the consumer, seeing the companies involved, and let it impact their opinions of the media, which is okay.
TLDR; short and simple, go for it if you have two minutes to spare!

While I'm no Star Wars fan, I found this to be much more enjoyable than I anticipated. It's also a very short watch, less than 3 minutes long. The animation style itself was a lot more simplistic than what we see in other works by Studio Ghibli, however I found it very cute nonetheless.
Unfortunately, the reason I docked points (and therefore stars) while reviewing this, is a pretty strong one. The story they are attempting to tell within the animation is a bit muddy. It can be hard to decipher what the character's thinking, or what is going on.

I believe what saves this ONA is the cute, almost hand-drawn feeling of the artwork, the background music and the adorableness that is Grogu. The way this art makes use of color at…

Studio Ghibli: a true titan of the anime industry. Few studios have such a unique flare and air of class to them, but alas, all is not well.
I must go into a little background first. I have not seen a Studio Ghibli film since I was growing up, but I remember them for being not a major commercial studio looking to profit from whatever film they make decades after its initial release, which one of Gibli's competitor's, Walt Disney Animation Studios, was doing rampantly and it marked the beginning of the company's tirade towards greed, swallowing up several companies over the next few decades, including Lucasfilm, who are partially responsible for this abomination.
Additionally, Disney controlled the dubbing, subtitling and releasing rights for Studio Ghibli in the United States up until ve…

A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.
When Ghibli announced that they were going to be collaborating with Lucasfilm, speculation immediately grew about what these two juggernauts of their respective mediums could do when teamed up. From a movie to a new Visions episode, many ideas were thrown around including that of a Grogu based short - an idea backed up by the pre-existing rumour of just such a thing coming out on the third anniversary of his debut. Within a day we had our answer: Grogu was indeed being animated by Ghibli, and just a few short hours later it had been released to the astoundment of many. However, for all the potential and excitement that this collaboration offered, the question became would this measly three minute short be able to deliver an experience worthy of t…
