The countdown to Star Wars Celebration Japan has officially begun, and our trio is buzzing with anticipation as they dive into the newly-released schedule. With just two months remaining before their journey to Japan, they meticulously analyze each day's offerings, weighing the value of panels against precious time in the merchandise store.

The group examines standout panels including Lucasfilm Animation's 20th Anniversary, Ahsoka, and behind-the-scenes presentations with industry legends like Doug Chang. Their insider perspective shines through as they share wisdom gained from previous Celebrations, offering practical advice on navigating international conventions. Should you prioritize the main stage or opt for simulcast rooms? Is it worth waiting in line for exclusive merchandise or catching panels that will eventually appear online?
