SPOILERS TOTAL. You've been warned.
X01: Episode name 2023 August 22
(First watched 2023-08-25) This is very much a followup to Rebels, and I think I'm pretty rusty on my Rebels knowledge. I know we saw Sabine and Ahsoka together at the end, but as an apprentice? Did they make clear she was Force sensitive very late in the game? She'd been hanging around two Jedi for years and kind of sucked ass at trying to use the Darksaber when she was trying to learn how to fight against someone with Force capabilities.
The intro was very unexpected. In its cheap red way it felt like some kind of evil inversion of the scrolling fanfare intro the Episodes get.
Do Jedi have to fight in the most flowery way possible? Ahsoka seemed to be handling herself fine against the droids in the regular way, so slicing up ancient ruins to drop them through the floor in a funny way... OK?
Dave Filoni like... four of the first six names in the credits.
