In addition, a spin-off of the animated show was announced - the mini-series"The Ninth Jedi". This is a continuation of the story of Episode 5 of Season 1 of Visions, “Child of Hope.”

The writer and director of The Ninth JediKenji Kamiyama took the stage and thanked the fans for their support. He expressed enthusiasm for Kara and Juro's new adventures.

I originally wrote a story calledThe Ninth Jediwhile working on the first volume. This time, director Shiotani is directing another project [Child of Hope], and he continues the story as Kara goes in search of her father.

Star Wars: The Ninth Jediwill feature lightsabers that change color depending on the Force. According to Kamiyama, Kara's father invented these lightsabers and was kidnapped.

What the hell was the reason for lightsabers like that? I think this will be a story where these secrets will be told.

The release date ofThe Ninth Jedihas not yet been announced. Most likely, the release will take place in 2026.
