What a shame there are only 2 episodes left. Someone wrote earlier that this has been Filoni’s weakest outing so far. I tend to agree, but more because this episode, I finally, finally didn’t want it to end. The pacing felt good, some character motives came to light and yes, finally, the Chimaera, Thrawn and Ezra make their live action introduction.
For a show called Ahsoka, she was stuck in transit for the hour we had with her. So. Maybe a better title would’ve been “Ahsoka and friends”. Or “Sabine, with a side order of Ahsoka”
Can’t believe we now need to get a good feel for Thrawn in this new domain, have Ahsoka battle it out with the evil Sith, jump back (?) to the main universe and - God, the pacing for this season has been really, really poor. Ahsoka comes to grips with Anakin’s turn, finds her mojo and has a cameo sitting in a cockpit of her own show?
At least we had a cute animal and new alien race. And the Night Sisters are clearly still alive and kicking. Loved that part and the lore around it.
Sabine being coy with Ezra about the “how did you get here” felt quite poorly done. The only reason was plot, because that is clearly for next week so Ahsoka can actually do something.
Helmet-Sith was clearly not Ezra then. Don’t think we’ll ever figure that one out.
I do want all of them to get back to the SW universe though. It’ll be cool to see Thrawn work on establishing the foundation for the First Order. And Ezra to join up with the gang and kick some solid Rebel ass.
Just seems we may need to wait for 2027 to see the show we thought we would be watching now. Stop drawing things out!
Anyway. Can’t wait for next week. Which is a first this season.
I really think this season will grow more followers and be more well-regarded after it has finished. It starts slow, but the build up has been incredibly satisfying so far. It reminds me of Andor in that regard. Different tone, but not unlike it in structure.
