This duo never misses… absolutely amazing book! The art truly carries the story

Star Wars: Visions as a series is a bit of a hit or miss; this one is one of the hits, though it still falls short of some of the best episodes. It tells the story of a Jedi traveling with a band and searching for a droid sanctuary where droids can live in peace - all the while being pursued by an assassin droid facing a personality crisis. It's hard to say more without spoilers but the story is just a backdrop; the main interest is in the characters themselves.As a manga, it embodies some of the genre's best and worst traits: the art is great and striking and the characters have depth. On the other hand, the pacing is a bit weird; you're likely feeling like you've missed something all the time. I had to google to find out if I had missed an earlier issue. I generally love in medias res but here I just felt something was missing.
If you're a fan of Visions or just alternate Star Wars, this is one you'll want to pick up. The art is great and perfectly fits the story. The characters are interesting and there is that certain something that makes it a compelling read. I'm not quite sure if the pacing is off or if it's part of its charm that it is so weird. Reviewed from an advance reader copy provided by the publisher.
Review of advance copy
Due to Disney/PRH taking over publication of Star Wars Manga, and them spending the next year reprinting everything, this might be the last new/original Star Wars Manga for a while. It's a good job it was damn good!!!!
Mangakas Shimizu and Shimoguchi (creators of the modern ultraman series) bring their own visions style spin on Star Wars.
The Japanese term Tsukumogami is when a household object turns 100 years old it becomes sentient and gains a yokai (spirit). Whether it becomes a good or evil spirit depends on how it was treated.
This manga is about a droid who becomes sentient. The droid was trained to become a jedi killer. But when it becomes sentient what does the droid want to do?
Thank the force this book was excellent. I loved it so much!!!! As someone who owns every single volume of Star Wars Manga in existence, this next year of nothing new is absolutely going to kill me.

I jumped on this the day it came out.. Not normally a manga reader, once I got use to the correct order to read it went smoothly. A short read for sure but very well done. Star War fans will enjoy the story and the art.

Could've had a little more depth to the story, but it was still a cool story. I like the Visions line.

I like the exploration of droid rights and the Force, something Star Wars canon has touched on but never really committed to. I did find some of the art hard to follow panel-to-panel.
