Context YMMV / StarWarsGalaxyOfAdventures

Go To

1* SugarWiki/AwesomeArt: The art is ''gorgeous''. Every new episode that's uploaded has dozens upon dozens of fans begging for a series of full-length episodes in that exact art style.
2* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: Obviously, because it's ''Star Wars'', but "Stormtroopers vs. Rebels" has a truly epic remix of the Imperial March that manages to make '''Stormtroopers''' seem completely badass.
3* FandomRivalry: With ''[[WesternAnimation/StarWarsResistance Resistance]]''. Vocal opinion seems to be that ''Galaxy of Adventures'' is better due to emulating the anime artstyle more than ''Resistance'' had claimed to have due to being traditionally animated as opposed to CGI and doesn't hesitate to show violent content. On the other hand, ''Galaxy of Adventures'' mostly doesn't add anything besides serve as ''another'' GatewaySeries for younger new fans via summary (leading to some accusations that it's just MerchandiseDriven) and suffers from ItsShortSoItSucks, while ''Resistance'' has an original story.
4* FanficFuel: The wet dreams of many a ''The Clone Wars'' fan were fulfilled upon seeing [[AscendedFanon Captain Rex serving alongside Han Solo at the Battle of Endor.]] One can only imagine what the two would have to say to one another and, well, that's where the fanart comes in.
5* HilariousInHindsight: Leia's episode where she [[{{Slapstick}} slaps]] Luke may recall an [[MemeticMutation infamous]] comic panel from the [[Franchise/StarWarsLegends old]] comic adaptation of ''Literature/SplinterOfTheMindsEye'', where Luke slapped Leia in an out-of-character moment ("No more favors until I'm done eating!"), much to her surprise.
6* ItsShortSoItSucks: The only complaint most fans have with the series (aside from it arguably being just another merchandising tool to introduce kids to the franchise) is that the beautifully animated action is just ''begging'' for a full-length series (or to go all the way with the ''entire'' movies), and the 2-3 minute long episodes we get [[AwesomenessWithdrawal aren't nearly enough to feel satisfied]].
7* MemeticMutation: There are dozens of Youtube videos of clips from this series edited together with anime songs to form the opening of a ''Star Wars'' anime, probably because the artstyle, animation, and direction of ''Galaxy of Adventures'' makes it easier to "anime opening"-ify than the other ''Star Wars'' cartoons.
8* MisaimedFandom: Leia comically slapping Luke got some slack from certain circles for supposedly suggesting feminism is DoubleStandardAbuseFemaleOnMale, [[MST3KMantra oblivious]] that it was obviously a cartoon gag about how Leia is just HotBlooded and was a bit of a later in-joke about them being RedOniBlueOni siblings.
9* {{Narm}}: In "Chewie and the Ewoks", when the big Wookiee lad does a VineSwing onto the AT-ST, the sound effect for his roar is modulated to sound like a Tarzan yell. It sounds absolutely ''bizarre'' and totally distracts from the otherwise awesomeness of the moment.
10* NightmareFuel: Darth Vader, who effortlessly slaughters the Rebel Troopers and even makes R2 & 3PO stop dead in their tracks and turn around.
11** The wampa's depiction here is arguably scarier than its depiction in ''Empire'', rather than the lumbering snowman from the movie, it's now a [[LightningBruiser frighteningly fast]] snarling beast with [[GlowingEyesOfDoom glowing]] [[RedEyesTakeWarning red eyes.]]
12** Palpatine may never have looked more terrifyingly demonic than he does in "Yoda - the Jedi Master", where we get one utterly chilling closeup of his face that has the upper half [[FaceFramedInShadow shadowed under his hood]] against the blood-red light of his lightsaber beam, with the only parts of his face visible being [[GlowingEyesOfDoom his glowing yellow eyes]] and a [[SlasherSmile truly horrific smile.]]
13** Jabba the Hutt is portrayed in a much more sinister tone thanks to Jabba's GlowingEyesOfDoom when he does something evil, the frightened look of a frog-like creature about to be SwallowedWhole by Jabba, and the closest thing to a SlasherSmile a Hutt can make accompanied with a RedFilterOfDoom while he watches his Rancor eat an Aqualish who had displeased him alive. Meanwhile, the Rancor looks even more demonic than usual as it gets ready to eat the Aqualish.
14* PeripheryDemographic: Although the series is at least ostensibly aimed at getting younger viewers hooked on Star Wars, the shorts regularly rack up tens of thousands of views on [=YouTube=] from adult fans and viewers who love drawn the [[SugarWiki/AwesomeArt spectacular animation]], clever reinterpretations of Star Wars lore, easter eggs for longtime fans, and the occasional bit of [[WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids frighteningly dark and intense violence.]]
