Between Star Wars Rebels, Star Wars: The Clone Wars, and Star Wars: Forces of Destiny, the animated arena of the galaxy far, far away has been delivering audiences a number of action-packed adventures. The first trailer for Star Wars Resistance debuted today, giving audiences a glimpse at the anime-inspired series.

As we've learned time and time again, Star Wars fans are incredibly passionate, if nothing else, no matter what that opinion is that they are passionate about. Initial reactions to Resistance note that the series looks to be more oriented towards younger audiences than previous series, while also noting how dramatically different this new series looks. Understandably, the reactions have been polarizing as to whether the show's look and feel are positive or negative avenues to explore.

Exciting Art Style

I'm actually a fan of the art style in #StarWarsResistance. It reminds me of Titan AE + Borderlands + A Scanner Darkly.
