Tales of the Jedi is an animated Star Wars series based on various short films. These don’t tell much of a story. Instead, we’re dealing with another anthology format that seems to be moving in the wake of Star Wars: Visions.
The first characters we follow in Tales of the Jedi have now been introduced at the Star Wars Celebration. Among other things, we get episodes Qui Gon Jinn, Mace Windu and Count Dooku – but not directly the versions that we know from the prequel trilogy. Tales of the Jedi shows us the legendary Jedi in their younger days.

Tales of the Jedi comes up with a total of three Ahsoka episodes that take up different stations in her life. One of these episodes was already shown at the Star Wars Celebration. She bears the title Life and Deathis around 15 minutes long and should feel like a Hayao Miyazaki film in terms of atmosphere.

In the episode, we meet Ahsoka as a baby. Her mother is voiced by Janina Gavankar. On Twitter is from a minimalist presentation and beautiful animations. Hardly any dialogue, but strong images.
