Following up this, the manga will also see an adaptation of "The Ninth Jedi", one of the fan-favorite stories of the anthology, drawn by Yuusuke Oosawa, of Green Worldz and Dr. Duo fame. Finally, "Lop & Ochou", a story of Jedi and Sith starring a young bunny girl will be adapted to the printed page by mangaka Haruichi, who is responsible for the creation of the volleyball series known as Haikyu.

Twitter User Manga Mogora RE shared the new details from Big Gangan with regards to the upcoming Star Wars: Visions manga adaptation, which is set to land on May 25th, giving Star Wars fans a brand new way to follow some of the biggest stories from the universe of Jedi and Sith:

While a second season of Star Wars: Visions has yet to be confirmed at this point, we here at Comicbook.com previously had the opportunity to chat with producer James Waugh about the possibility of more episodes coming down the pipeline and whether there might in fact be a new anthology series: 

"Yes, absolutely. We'll see what happens. Let's see how the response is to this anthology, and I hope it's as positive as your experience, which makes me really happy we did."
