What a beautiful end to a beautiful show. Thank you Bad Batch.
Love the animation that put so much in body language and can tell a lot without event facial expression. "Need a way out quick....Waaaaait a minute!"
Yeah, this bit was sublimely animated.
On one hand, I'm so happy Echo will be a main focus of the finale. On the other hand, I'm so worried about Echo being a main focus of the finale.
Echo: <finally shows up again this season and effortlessly does the most impressive stealth maneuvers you’ve ever seen>
Me: 🤩😍🥰🫠
Also me: nothing better happen to him or so help me 🔪🔪🔪
Ventress in the updated animation style healed me
my only thought when Ahsoka had that hologram playing was "SHE NEEDS TO SHOW THIS TO LUKE NOW"
i did enjoy how a long time ago in a galaxy far far away was folded into the lore of the gffa itself in this episode, making it belong to the jedi and their history, that's a fun little meta twist. it's like, you can see what the show is trying to do here. they're being very clever with the whole concept of a galaxy far away from our galaxy far far away, it's a story about stories, about memories of the past and hopes for the future. this other galaxy is not a whimsical place of happily ever afters, though, the cute little noti excluded, much like our gffa, it is full of pain and death. baylan says it's a place of dreams and madness, and the planet is where the purrgil whales go to die, it's a graveyard. shin's naive, earnest 'sometimes stories are just stories' being met with the idea that it holds the way to break the cycle of rise and fall of darkness, like stories matter and can change things. they're not detached fantasies, they're dangerous and full of potential, lurking with menace like thrawn's power to start a war. the show is to some degree making commentary on the power of star wars itself, you know? all the pain and death mixed with whimsy and friendship. ahsoka will be changed by visiting a gffa of the gffa, so will ezra and sabine, thrawn too. they're moving in and out of this second level of being stories inside the story to other characters. it's all very meta but not in an annoying way, in an intriguing way, which is nice. i'm interested to see where filoni is going with all this.

Can we please stop fucking ghoulishly anti-aging everybody for FUCKS SAKE. There isn’t a soul alive who wouldn’t rather see Hayden Christensen’s smile lines than pretend we’re sticking to “canon age” or whatever the fuck
I don’t know if Baylan’s apprentice was even named aloud in these episodes but it doesn’t really matter because to me she’s always going to be “baby Sith Alice Glass in her Crystal Castles era”
SENATOR JAI KELL… RYDER AZADI… LOTHAL’S ENVIRONMENT HEALING AFTER THE EMPIRE… LOTH CATS… EZRA BRIDGER “WE GREW UP TOGETHER(😭😭)… YOU’RE LIKE A SISTER TO ME”… THE LOOK ON HERA’S FACE WHEN REALIZING EZRA COULD BE ALIVE… THE PARALLEL SHOT TO THE OPENING SHOT OF REBELS… THE SCORING???…

Temuera Morrison will be making his return to the Star Wars universe later this year in 2023’s Ahsoka, multiple sources tell One Take News. Morrison will be returning as the fan-favourite Captain Rex, although it’s unclear if he will appear in flashbacks or in present time. It’s also unclear if Morrison will be playing any other clones in the series.
On the one hand: I don’t think this would be revealed already. Look at how closely-guarded his Kenobi cameo was?
ON THE OTHER HAND: fhsgshmghnhshs that would be amazing 🥹
blacked out and added Ragnar into this as well
#they’re the same thing
