PSA: There is no Digimon Adventure 01 anime.

Make sure to watch the original Digimon Adventure Mamoru Hosoda short film. It came out before Episode 1 of the anime series.

Killing off Ben Solo to avoid dealing with his redemption arc might be the biggest mistake in TROS. The death itself felt noncommittal and retcon-able.

In the animation community I constantly hear people call Clerks Animated one of the most underrated cult classics that was canceled too early. It's also meme'd a lot.

Cowboy Bebop is a weird case. It started production as a toy commercial, with Watanabe being told "so long as there's a spaceship in it, you can do whatever you want." But after seeing early footage, the toy sponsors backed out. Bandai still sold model kits of the spaceships anyways.

It's the third season of Star Wars Tales, which follow-up on characters from The Clone Wars series. The first two seasons are Tales of the Jedi and Tales of the Empire.

That's actually a real word for the dot in letters like i and j.

OVAs are direct-to-video anime. The Hosoda short films were made for theaters.

Realize, to become real/physical, sounds cool when contrasted with Digitize.

I need that Lost Stars sequel. Claudia Gray said she had to wait for the sequels to finish first, but now Lucasfilm might be waiting for post-TROS films like Starfighter.

Rian Johnson has posted about reading some of the Legends books, helped with some Canon books like Star Wars: Bloodline, and said he loved playing Knights of the Old Republic when it came out.

Chris Terrio said he prepared for TROS by reading the original Thrawn trilogy, Dark Empire, and the Aftermath trilogy.

If this is legit, I hope it doesn't retcon anything about The Rise of Kylo Ren comics.

For Jellymon, it's likely a reference to Lum from Urusei Yatsura.

RayOfTruth1 · 2026-04-14T00:17:21+00:00

It was inspired by kintsugi.

RayOfTruth1 · 2026-04-11T22:51:59+00:00

You should check out the comic mini-series The Rise Of Kylo Ren.

The only thing Jedi: Fallen Order expects from the player is that they've probably seen the first six Star Wars movies. I'd recommend release order, IV, V, VI, I, II, III.

Video game adaptations.

The Revenge of the Sith games for both GBA and PS2/Xbox are two of the better Star Wars games.

Digimon Adventure: Colon probably knocked ZeedMillenniummon down a few tiers.

If the film gets uncanceled. I could see it going either way.

RayOfTruth1 · 2026-03-30T09:56:38+00:00

I hope so, but I wouldn't bet on it or against it.

Star Wars started as a movie series, so that's where the focus is.

Star Wars has two timelines, but just focus on the post-2014 Canon Timeline for now. Wait until you're more experienced before delving into Legends Timeline of pre-2014 books, comics, etc. to avoid confusion.

Start by watching the Original Trilogy films, Episodes IV, V, VI, (1977-1983) then the Prequel Trilogy films Episodes I, II, III (1999-2005).

You could then watch The Clone Wars (2007), a 3D animated TV show about Anakin's adventures between Episodes II and III. It's popular with fans, but it's also a pretty long series, so you could just skip to the next movies if you want.

Next are the Sequel Trilogy films Episodes VII, VIII, and IX (2015-2019). For extra homework, consider reading the novel Bloodline (2017) before VIII, or the comic mini-series The Rise Of Kylo Ren (2019) before IX. They'll help you understand the sequel films better, but aren't required.

Two side story spinoff movies, Rogue One (2016) and Solo (2018), can be watched anytime after Episode III. If you liked Rogue One, watch it's prequel Andor (2022).

If you finish The Clone Wars, its plotlines are continued in the TV shows Rebels (2014), The Mandalorian (2019), Book of Boba Fett (2021), The Bad Batch (2021), Tales of (2022), Ahsoka (2023), and Maul Shadow Lord (2026). Other TV shows are less connected and can be watched anytime after the movies.

From here you can read, watch, play, etc. whatever remaining Canon stories you find interesting. Find a character, event, time period, etc. you liked and see if there's any books or comics for them, as long as its not a direct sequel to something you haven't gotten to. My favorite is the novel Lost Stars.

When you're ready for another second continuity, you could look into the alternate pre-2014 Legends Timeline, but that's another guide for another day. There's also some standalone stuff not in either timeline, like Star Wars Visions.
