I get that its not lol. Was asking Why? As in why is Lucasfilm making non-canon material now. Is it a change in their policy Or is it just restricted to Anime as a medium like Lego..
I guess the latter? Though I am a bit miffed frankly, that they’ll do stuff like this rather than let writers finish the stories that were already ongoing in the previous lore.
Yeah, I'd say it fits more into the "canon-adjacent" tier, like the Lego stuff. Meaning that it is part of the collective Disney canon, but not linked to the mainstream timeline at all.
Visions is a Disney product, therefore it is canon to Disney as a whole. However, it was not created to fit into the mainstream timeline, therefore it is non-canon to the existing/canon continuity.
Makes things easier to grasp if you just liken it to the Lego material: canon to Disney as a whole; non-canon to the mainstream timeline.
The best way I could think to describe it would be to compare it to the old Star Wars Infinities comics.
It's a deliberate break from continuity in order to let writers have more free rein for storyteling within the Star Wars universe. Just like how Star Wars Infinities is non-canon even to the Legends continuity, Visions is a Disney-era Star Wars product that is still non-canon to Disney-era Star Wars continuity.
At the end of the day it is just the Animatrix or Halo Legends but for Star Wars. If you have ever seen any anime anthology series about a western franchise then nothing in this series should surprise you.
