Star Wars (スター・ウォーズシリーズ, Sutā Uōzu Shirīzu) is an American epic space opera media franchise created by George Lucas, which began with the eponymous 1977 film and quickly became a worldwide pop culture phenomenon. The franchise has been expanded into various films and other media, including television series, video games, novels, comic books, theme park attractions, and themed areas, comprising an all-encompassing fictional universe. Star Wars is one of the highest-grossing media franchises of all time.
For the Japanese market, they have produced many, many manga, but not many anime adaptations (besides anime promos for live action movies) until Star Wars: Visions (スター・ウォーズ：ビジョンズ, Sutā Uōzu: Bijonzu), a 9 episode ONA in 2021. However, there are plans to release a sequel ONA series in 2025.
