Star Wars and anime go really well together. Star Wars has also had a significant impact on anime and Japanese films. Listed below are some good animes:
All of the shorts build on Buddhist and Asian themes in Star Wars, including the Jedi, the Force, the Sith, and the nature of lightsabers and fighting.
Every short brilliantly represented Star Wars, blended with an anime flair, from the touching robot Jedi narrative T0-B1 to the peaceful and introspective F and the high-octane action of The Twins.
An anime that owes its birth to the much-maligned Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace.
The animation also has space dogfights and replicates the space western vibe of the original trilogy and spin-offs like The Mandalorian or The Book of Boba Fett, with Han Solo's attitude sprinkled in for smuggler aficionados.
Despite not being as morally binary as the original Star Wars trilogy, Legend of the Galactic Heroes has more politics than the former, implying that Andor aficionados will like this anime.
Unless one simply looks at the lightsaber-style beam swords, Mobile Suit Gundam does not appear to be a match.
A deeper look, however, exposes several more parallels between this anime and Star Wars.
When it comes to rebels vs empires, Code Geass is an anime that captures the passion and heart of both the originals and prequels of Star Wars.
That may sound more Star Trek-like, but it isn't. It focuses on Dandy's epic exploits, and while it isn't much of a space opera or space western.
The impact of My Hero Academia is more obvious since Kohei Horikoshi was influenced by a wide range of American films and culture.
There are also some parallels in how the storylines function, with All Might playing Obi-Wan and taking a back seat as Deku, like Luke, forges his own path with assistance.
