Love, Death + Robots: Volume 2 Review: More to Love
✖
Love, Death + Robots debuted its first set of animated stories back in 2019, introducing fans to 18 different worlds all tied together through the central packaging. Each story had something to do with either love, death, or robots, and some of them even took on all three. This was well-received enough to warrant a second volume of the Tim and Jennifer Miller, Joshua Donen, and David Fincher-produced anthology series, and now there are several new stories hoping to make the same kind of impact that the original volume did.
Love, Death + Robots is therefore fighting quite the uphill battle due to the nature of it being an anthology. It runs the risk of disconnecting from the audience as it moves from story to story. The second volume then doubles up on this central risk by following up such a voluminous first outing. Volume 2 meets this head-on as it pares down its selection for a brisker, leaner, meaner, and somehow more lovable experience overall.
