It's been interesting to see how Japanese cinema and cultural influences inspired George Lucas when he made Star Wars, and with Volume 1 of Visions the effect was reversed. Star Wars ip was given to Japanese anime studios with free creative control to do what they wished, to make thier star wars story and push the boundaries in new and unreal ways that dont need to make sense in the saga we're enamoured by. To make something fresh and new but different. Volume 2 is no different, but on a new playing field with the ip given to animation studios around the world. Today we look at Visions Vol 2 and review each episode and provide our thoughts, feedback and scores - and pick our favorites of course. What are your thoughts on Vol 2? And which one did you like the most??
