Ok so without embarrassing myself too much I wanted to tell you guys about this awesome connection I found.... sooooo I am a big star wars fan... and there is pixar animated series on cartoon network that i watch with my younger cousin. In one of the recent episodes there was a clone character named Gregor who went missing in battle, got anemia, and then tried to rejoin the army.
So I was listening to a star wars podcast this morning and one of the writers of the series was discussion the name of that character (most clones have names like "Blaster" or "Scope", things related to battle) and he said that this character was going through a metamorphosis phase throughout the episode and so when they were decided what to name him, quote "they relied on their good friend Kafka" hahaha I know we aren't on that unit anymore but I just thought it was cool
Being a huge fan of Star Wars myself, this is really cool. I never really got into the cartoons but it was interesting that they would take an idea from an amazing short story and implement it into a children's cartoon.
