Saku first appeared in the Star Wars: Visions short film " The Village Bride." She was voiced by Mariya Ise in the original Japanese audio, and by Stephanie Sheh in the English dub. She wore her blonde hair in a ponytail and had green earrings. She was a capable leader, able to rally several other villagers to her cause. When Haru calmly accepted her fate, Saku decided to take matters into her own hands and make plans to attack their enemies. She tried to convince her sister not to sacrifice herself to Izuma and his raiders and instead advocated for resisting by fighting back. Saku was a defiant and stubborn individual. Sometime later, Saku and other villagers thanked F for her help, and said their farewell to F as the Jedi left the planet. In a swift move, F struck down the raider, and saved Haru, Saku, and the rest of the villagers. In the ensuing chaos, Izuma's associates fled. F's companion Valco destroyed Izuma's ship, thus disabling his battle droids. When Izuma was ready to execute Saku for being the leader, the Jedi F intervened and saved her. Saku and others had secretly organized an ambush on the raiders, but their plans were foiled. On the day following the wedding, Haru and Asu turned themselves in to Izuma. When the village gathered to eat that night, Saku and several others ended up storming off when Haru refused to back down. Haru and Asu's wedding ceremony took place the night before they were to be taken. Haru and her bridegroom Asu both volunteered to go in his stead, despite repeated protests from Saku.
