  • Visions is the most I've liked Star Wars in such a long time, and while the music for all the shorts fit super well and are all well made, nothing stood out thematically or emotionally as much as the score for The Village Bride, and the main theme of the short. Done by Kevin Penkin, legend behind Made in Abyss, and with vocals from famous NieR vocalist Emi Evans, the theme is contemplative, beautiful, sirene, and perfectly befitting the mythical and gentle tone of the short.

    You can’t change the river’s flow by casting a stone, but live in harmony with nature, and you’ll change together. The breath of life becomes wind and will always respond. - The quote from F is so beautiful, it's like when humility and strength comes together as one.

    That was it, right there. That was the moment that reminded me.
    It's not about religious zealots, it's not about galactic politics or terrifying superweapons. Sometimes the best tales are two people standing up in front of those who'd do wrong and going "no, no more. There won't be any more of this."
    Why? Because it's the right thing to do. Because that's what a knight does. They stand for those who can't. And when F's blade ignited and glowed in her eyes, when she quietly took that terrifying first step and took back what'd been taken from her by the Empire, I knew in my heart that this was what I'd been missing, and what I fell in love with so long ago.
    More of these, please. Please, this is what we need.

      In a way that's what make Ahsoka such a beautiful character. All the Jedi chose politics. Chose to defend the chancellor of the Republic and leave Mandalore to suffer. Ahsoka was the one who ignored politics, the chancellor, the Jedi, the Republic, and chose to defend them in their time of need. She was not a Jedi officially, but she knew what it meant to be a Jedi. Something others had forgotten.

    I'm just hoping like all frick that one of these days someone is going to come along and make a rendition of this score's main theme *except it's the NieR: Automato* *_boss battle_* *version of this score's theme!*
    Imagine a version of MAGINA X FORCE where the part at 10:13 kicks up to about 1.25 bpm and has that flurry of violins joined with those pulse-pounding charging drums, not unlike the kind that are utilized in 'Grandma - Destruction' and *_'A Beautiful Song'_* from the NieR: Automata OST!!!
    And why stop there? There was a version of this theme that _Samuel Kim Music_ made where they managed to work some music from Made In Abyss into the rendition. Why not make a NieR: Automata Boss Battle version of this suite's main theme that has *_'Dawn'_* from the Final Fantasy XV OST worked in which seque's into the bit at 11:25!!!??
