Sidious basically had to clean up his own mess. This whole fiasco started with him forcing Dooku to kill Ventress. It's pretty amazing how the story has unfolded.
It all worked out for Sidious in the end. I mean, Sidious fully knew that Dooku would 100% try to backstab him if he ever trained a pupil up to a high-enough level, whether it be Ventress, Savage, or Quinlan Vos. And given Ventress's repeated failures, he decided that she probably wasn't an asset worth keeping around if it only served as a reason for his apprentice to betray him. Ventress's rebellion also ultimately gave Palpatine the perfect excuse to wipe out the Nightsisters and Mother Talzin, though as if he ever needed a reason to do so anyway.
@@TheGreater-ScopeVillainI mean isn’t it whole point of the rule of 2 for the apprentice to kill the master after they learned all the sith teaching but Sidous is a greedy bitch and destroyed the rule of 2 and exploited it 3 times, maul dooku, then tried it with vader and got a taste of his own medicine😂
In the Mandalorian they do call Bo-Katan "princess," though it's never mentioned there she's the Duchess Satine's sister, only that she's the heir to Mandalore's throne and the head of Clan Kryze. Now, two of the most important people in Obi-Wan's life have been personally killed by Maul: Qui-Gon and Satine.
The tragedy of Satine's death is that for such a strong and dynamic woman and leader, she ends reviled by her people, scorned by her family, and used for another's revenge. She goes from the driver of her own story, to a throwaway object in someone else's story. Her death is meaningless in every way possible. That is tragedy.
Easily among the best episodes of the series. Fantastic reaction from you, especially to Satine's death, what a gut punch! Sidious vs Maul and Savage might be my favourite lightsaber duel ever, it flawlessly captures the terror, ferocity and overpowering skill of Palpatine. The operatic music combined with his fluid motions is like watching a malevolent dance. What's more chilling is that Palpy is a master of all seven lightsaber styles so he could've ended that fight in two seconds (even faster if he used his preferred weapon, the Force) but was sadistically toying with his opponents as it's likely the most fun he's had in years. An electrifying two episodes, Sith-pun totally intended.
I also love that Palpatine actually saw Maul as "a rival" - obviously at that time Maul couldn't hope to beat Palpatine but Palps was worried enough that he actually went himself to stop Maul before he could grow more powerful - both shows Palpatine being a terrifying villain and shows the terrifying potential of Maul that's still around when Palpatine doesn't kill him
It is the single best episode in the clone wars without a doubt.. The other Episodes don't compare individually Not saying it's the best stuff , just a single best episode .we even did votes on it.
@@Pinkielover This and ARC Troopers are superb. I love Rebels more than TCW, but it never hits the heights of episodes like those, or some of the things we see later.
While Palpatine is clearly much more powerful then Maul in the force, he is significantly threatened by him as a force in the galaxy with his apprentice, and by his skill with lightsabers, we can see here and via Episode 1 when Maul fights both Kenobi and Qui-gon, that Maul is an incredibly strong sith assassin, particularly with regard to his lightsaber skills. He's actually SO threatened, he even brings his backup lightsaber, which we NEVER see him use otherwise. This by itself should make clear how much of a threat Palpatine considered Maul to be.
Absolutely right! Great comment. THIS is the Sideous I wanted in ROTS- a pure evil, cackling killing machine that toys with two of the most dangerous force users in the galaxy They didn't do much here, but my favorite aliens- the Pikes- we're here too! I love those fishy drug dealers!
Savage's death always makes me so sad for him. We saw in his first episode that he is not a bad person, but was corrupted first by Ventress/Talzin and then later by Maul.
What a cinematic episode. Stories like this are why I prefer Clone Wars to some of the Star Wars movies themselves. Satine’s death is so emotional. The soundtrack is beautiful. Even Savage dying is a little sad. Adore Palpatine showing up to just end all the drama he wasn’t a part of. OBSESSED
Btw, we would have seen what happend with Palpatine and Maul after this arc in the (about) 40 still unfinished episodes (aka 10 arcs) which were cancelled in 2013 by Disney taking over Star Wars. I hope they show us these missing stories (on screen) again some time in the future. The further story with Maul and Palpatine is called "Son of Dathomir" and is a comic now, btw. We can also see more of Sidious fighting in that arc which is always cool, imo.
According to the rule of star wars canon, there can't be two versions of the story. That means, since Son of Dathomir is a (really good) comic, it will never be on a TV screen. Same goes for the dark disciple stories which were turned into a book. But it's fine this way. This show is long enough. If the writers didn't stop focusing on this single project, many other great parts of star wars probably wouldn't exist.
@@Mis7erSeven Agreed. I would never trade Rebels for more of the unfinished Clone Wars episodes. I'm more than happy with what we've gotten and what we'll continue to get in the future.
What happens to Maul next is covered in a comic entitled “Son of Dathomir” - there might be a narrated version on TH-cam but this takes place between season 6 and season 7 in case you consider reacting to it to fill in the blanks between his appearances on screen
Maul became quite the planner, he learned his master's teachings well, it's a shame he had to go up against someone of sidious' caliber, the rise of darth maul would have been quite the sight. Horrible, but impressive nonetheless. Satine's death always breaks my heart, regardless of politics or whatever, she was just truly an amazingly kind person, no wonder Obi of all people fell for her. This arc also showed how different maul was to sidious, even in his horrible villany, he truly loved his brother and unlike Dooku and Ventress who just tortured him, he actually trained him, he was progressing so much and showing so much more controlled brutality and skill. Edit: Also as a Maul super fanboy, yeah my feelings when I watched that last episode was also "Fuck him" xD
In the deleted scenes of 5x16 we can see a big part of Savage's, Maul's and Palpatine's duell which they sadly cut out, probably because of time reasons.
And also because there is no way that Maul could ever gain the upper hand against Palpatine in a fight. EVER. The difference in skill and raw power between Sidious and all his apprentices is simply too vast.
@@thealmightypancakeface9585 Given the countless canon evidence of Sidious's power level and feats, I doubt that Maul gaining any sort of upper hand against Palpatine could be canon.
23:06 I don't think it was mentioned in Mandalorian. But if I am not mistaken, I believe in Boba Fett, the Armorer mentions her full name "Bo-Katan Kryze". So if you remembered Satine's full name, Satine Kryze, you might've have been able to connect the dots. I think the Armorer said her full name.
This might be a painful episode for people to watch, especially those who favoured Satine, but this is exactly the kind of excellant writing that makes a villan not only hated but feared. You can dress a villan up in black clothes, have them act as emo and edgy as you like, but until they rip the heart out of your protaganist (and more effectivly your audience) they are not a true villan. This Episode Maul becomes just that, hated and feared... and its glorious. Also, given what Maul got up to in 5x16, just how many people were rooting for Darth Sidious in that final fight :)
Love the reaction, although I think we're all crying in the club for Satine 😢. I think what's interesting about Maul is how he hides is inner loathing for himself inside his hatred for Obi-wan. When we meet him in CW his is under a pile of garbage and considers himself "filth" and "nothing". The only thing he has to live for is revenge. But this arc shows that what Maul is looking for is validation. He wants to believe that who he is isn't HIS fault, and that he is a victim of circumstance (via Kenobi and Sidious). Him trying to break Obi is him trying to free himself from his pain, because he believes that if Obi can break, then Maul can finally come to terms with himself by absolving himself from the responsibility of his character. He isn't simply incapable of introspection, he's terrified of it. BTW This is not a Maul defense post, nor am I saying Maul wants to be a good guy. It's quite the opposite: he WANTS an excuse to be an evil POS. I will say however, for someone with only a cool design, a good fight and a couple of lines of dialogue in Episode I, CW definitely made him a VERY interesting character.
what also makes maul such an interesting villain, for me, is that unlike a lot of sith we see, he forms attachments to others, despite his efforts not to. he puts up a front of his relationship with savage only being that of a master and an apprentice, and yet in savage’s final moments we see that’s clearly not the case. and i’m sure there was a bit of truth to maul wanting to return to sidious’ side, he’s visibly upset when he gets reminded that he’s been replaced. like you said, for a character that originally only had maybe like 3 lines of dialogue, he’s become a pretty complex character lol
The Dutchess Satine's death made me cry too and probably a lot of us did. I agree with you on the Savage dies after Satine, so at least you have that, but Savage was a puppet from the get go. Makes you wonder what other "uses" Palpatine has in store for Maul.
The lawless single best episode of the clone wars so hard hitting and fast paced... and sidious ,love it..This is what we wanted in the Obi-Wan series thinking about her in the live action series maybe a flashback or something..Hey we could get season two with that , just saying the voice actress Anna Graves can play her in live action. we did see a lot of his pain and some of it was related to her i would think..... Well technically it's not mentioned in the Mandalorian but the episode name that she appears in kind of gives it away... The heiress ... You're gonna love Star Wars rebels lots of tears I find myself crying to that series more .. Enjoy your break the next story arc is god tier,, all the story arcs are great from here on out, till the end
I'm late to this party, so I'm sure this is already been mentioned, but the closest we get to a reference to Bo Katan's lineage in The Mandalorian is when boba Fett calls her "Princess".
To be fair even Obi-wan acknowledged that the nightsisters groomed Maul to be a sith and his reaction shows that it hit a nerve. Like with Savage who was literaly tortured and brainwashed into a monster. Tecknically Ventress is at fault for choosing Savage witch then led to Mauls revival so take that. Maul still aint a good dude and Bo-katan was literaly trying to dethrone Satine so that point is moot.
Wow you chose a rough episode to take a break after. Satine's death is such a tragedy. Maul as a character is so driven for vengeance, for lots of good reasons.
Powerful episode right 💥🤘⚡ Unfortunately The Voice Actor who played Lord Sidious/Palpatine Passed and this was he's last Episode 🙏 Amazing Performance For San Witwer aka Maul Clancy Brown aka Savage and James Arnold Taylor aka Obi Wan and Everyone I will never forget this episode 👏
Well... Sigh I honestly get so depressed when these episodes hit. A not so fun fact Obiwan almost fell to the darkside because of Satine's death, but because she would have hated that he let her go with a heavy heart. Thanks Dave Faloni
I kinda see this as a parallel to how the Sith manipulated the Mandalorians in the Mandalorian Wars in the Old Republic Era. And how Kreia said that they would die a slow death that lasts thousands of years. It seems like only recently in The Mandalorian that they are truly recovering from all the wars that they've fought for and have been entangled in.
I hope that now that they're delving into Mandalore's history with the Mythosaur and stuff that they make some refferences to the Mandalorian Wars in the show. Like mentioning the Mandalore the Great helmet, how Revan hid it and basically scattering the mandos or a namedrop of Canderous Odo.
After this episode there are comics called Son of Dathomir that explain what happens to Maul. I recommend you read or watch them before you watch season 7.
Mauls return is one of 3 instances in the clone wars where palapatine's whole chess plan was out of his control and i think one of the two times he actually has to step in to be sure he maintains control so is plan can continue even then this is the only time where he is dealing with it personally out of the two times he does deal with it
These episodes are so hard to watch, but man, they're so good! "Only the weak embrace the Dark side"... Obi Wan will always be my favorite! And Sidious fighting like it was nothing, he was having so much evil fun, lol. Amazing reaction!
"Be the man that I love." Wow, you summarized that so beautifully. I think that Satine and Obiwan loved each other, and they loved the good that the other was trying to be, even if they didn't always agree with each other.
Everyone in this episode is a victim Savage is a victim of Ventress Maul is a victim of Palpatin Visla is a victim of Maul Satine is a victim of Visla and Maul The only person who is not a victim is the Palpatine who created the Maul. Maul would be like Savage if Palpatine hadn't picked him up from his mother. But all what Maul fell now is hate and revenge Next arc is even better my personal top 1
A heartbreaking episode, but honestly, still only 2nd to 99's death, "the mission the nightmares, they're finally over", and victory and death. Though if you got attached to Satine, I can definitely understand this pain.
Season 5 episode 16 is a REALLY sad episode, as we end up loosing two great characters, Satine Kryze and Savage Opress. Though it is almost poetic, that after Maul kills Satine in front of Obi-Wan, not long afterwards, Sidious comes and kills Savage in front of Maul. Maul got what he deserved, though not the way one would have expected. And then there is the whole thing with Savage's final words... God... "I am an unworthy apprentice. I am not like you, I never was." I feel like this almost mirrors what fans probably thought of Savage when he was first introduced. They probably thought "They are trying to replace Maul, but they could never even hope to do so." And Savage's final words hits so hard about this, because he was never going to replace Maul, he never had the chance even to do so. Fans got what they wanted regardless, Maul was brought back anyways, and proved that Savage wasn't even close to strong enough to beat him. Savage was not like Maul, he never was. Anyways, Also want to mention that Maul, this being of fear and terror... An cunning and evil character hellbent on revenge, fearless and scary... To see all that crumble into a sense of absolute fear and begging... THAT is powerful, and shows just how powerful Sidious is. Sidious came to put Maul in his place, and during the entire battle, he was TOYING with Maul and Savage. Neither one stood a chance. And as a result, Maul gets beaten, thrown and tortured while crawling and begging for mercy as he is as scared as a child. THAT is just so incredibly powerful. Regardless though, Great reaction. Yeah, Satine's death is such a heartbreaking one. She was a great character, and it hurts so much to see her go. Everything she stood for, broken by evil men who desired power and revenge. So sad. At least Maul got what he deserved, lost his brother at the hands of the ONE THING he feared more than anything.
These are top tier episodes for me. Maul building himself up so much; toppling empires. Fueled, and yet also blinded, by his hatred for Obi-Wan. Then everything getting undone just from a single visit from Sidious. Also really puts into perspective of how dangerous Sidious really is.
I remember rewatching Satine's death a few months ago on TH-cam, and two of the top comments were "Imagine if Maul cut her in half" and "Imagine if Maul stabbed her with Obi-Wan's lightsaber".
sesskasays While it's not as good as the former (or at least that's how it's perceived as 'Star Wars Clone Wars' series was so good), I do hope after you've finished reactions to 'Clone Wars' you go straight on to reacting to 'Star Wars Rebels' which please, it was actually pretty good in its own way, especially in its later seasons and so underrated, with a few great surprises along the way, a few arcs carrying over and the series itself isn't as long, (unless the powers that be decide to make a revival continuation in the future)... 😁
I love Rebels so much, and just like clone war it started ok and went on to be just amazing. I also really loved the main characters, maybe slightly more than clone wars ones.
@@iamthemetalgod Yep Rebels is my fave SW show, even if it never hits the heights of episodes like Lawless or ARC Troopers. It, like the majority of Clone Wars, is top tier Star Wars.
th-cam.com/video/HCDcloyH_I4/w-d-xo.html If you want to know what Sidious has plan for Maul, I suggest clicking this link and listen to an audio remake of a comic called Son of Dathomir. It centers on Maul and the power struggle he has with Sidious. The comic is based off of Clone Wars episodes that sadly never aired due to the shows original cancelation. These stories however, are extremely important. A lot happens in this comic that explains things that happen later in the show. I suggest including this comic in your reactions if you want to get the full story. Don’t worry, it’s really fun and engaging!!
Hahahaha!!!! This might be my favorite reaction of the year! Bet you never thought you'd be rooting for Sideous to beat some ass, did you? Bo Katan Kries will be seen again in season 7 and elsewhere. We'll see more on the Mandelorian civil war- a LOT more. And The Darksaber will be seen again too- it's a bad penny. She's a complicated character. You can see how Bo was the rebel younger sister...and how she embraced Deathwatch to get out of her sister's massive pacifist shadow. Can we pour one out for The Twilight? Damn, I loved Anakin's old freighter. Sad to see it go.
"If you were to face an ancient Sith Lord in combat, you would learn that we are as children playing with toys compared to the prowess of the old masters."
Agreed. The true sith make sidious and vader look like younglings. I've started becoming knowledgeable about this era for this summer and I'm now wanting to see that as a series just make sure disney don't touch this idea.
@@Generalphoenix8438 Plagueis and Sidious were so skilled in lightsaber combats and grow so much powerful in the force to the point were they do not need to use lightsabers.
@@HunterManProKiller1000 well that and compared to eras were the sih empire was at war with the republic so they had to rely on sabers and their abilities whilst sidious and pleagues hid in the shadows to strike at the right time. But sidious just got vader to do his heavy work while he played on his throne. And then got thrown in a reactor shaft. The sith empire just seems alot better. Their only problem was that the sith had too much infighting and no real tactical minds. A few did but not enough.
You were asking if Bo ever mentions her sister in the mandalorian; she does indirectly. She introduces herself as Bo Katan Kryze, and says she is the last of her line. The episode is called "the heiress", and it's partly why she wants to lead; if you went by a monarchy system, she'd be next in line. But there's plenty more mandalore stuff between here and the mandalorian, which give more insight. So if you know Satine Kryze, and what happens here, then it adds up. But otherwise you wouldn't really notice. Kind of an "if you know, you know" way of referencing Satine.
Satine is one of the best SW characters ever- smart, funny and utterly resolute in her beliefs. Such a strong character - she never begged- never compromised her ideals- never tried to cut a deal like that puppet Olmec. I'd love to see those adventures of the year Satine and Obi Wan spent on the run from bounty hunters, back when he was just a Padawan and they were both young.
When the Chancellor tells Obi Wan two episodes ago not to bother with Maul, he always fully intended to deal with Maul personally. In a perverse way, Maul should be flattered that Sidious called him a rival to his face. The next arc closes Season 5 and it too is an emotional rollercoaster.
While everyone in the Univers is afraid of Darth Vader... he is afraid of the Emperor... and this shows why :) Sidious wasn't even sweating... he laughed and enjoyed himself during the fight.
When they aren’t being badass warriors, there’s a level of tragedy I appreciate about the Mandalorians. Their warrior ways destroyed their worlds to a point where one faction broke away to try and start a new pacifist society only for their leader to be targeted by a terrorist group that included her own sister. Ultimately that group sided with a vicious Darksider who took over and plunged Mandalore into yet another civil war that paved the way for the culture to be broken and scattered by the time of The Mandalorian
I'm a Maul fan, but because he's such a great villain... so I get the hate! (Especially given your love of Satine) All I can say is that your hate just goes and shows what a great villain Maul is! :)
"Oh it's so beautiful". Yes, right before Maul skewers Satine like a sacrificial lamb lol. Well, we still have Bo Katan, and she makes appearances in Rebels and in the live action Mandalorian series. I'm more of a Riyo Chuchi fan myself.
Even before Kenobi came out people were worried about this coming up because it serves as such a fundamental part of his character. This show makes Obi Wan one of my favourite characters with his arc in it.
It’s ashamed the show got canceled because the original comic line that was supposed to adapt the mandolorians busting out maul and him returning to mandalore got scrapped I still remember many being confused as to how he even got back to the planet in the first place lol
In Mandalorina, the only slight hint is that Bo-Katan said she was from clan Kryze. Nothing else was said about her relationship with Satine in that show.
This part of CW was weird because I never thought I'd be rooting for Palpatine... But after Maul offed Satine it's like... hell yeah, get 'im! It also sets the groundwork for one of Obi-Wan's defining characteristic. REALLY comes out in... well.. spoilers. But the thing that truly defines him as a character is forgiveness.
Maul's story continues in the son of dathomir comics. You should read/watch them after season 6. It's a big arc that was supposed to be part of TCW before it got cancelled. I think it's a must read. You can watch it on TH-cam.
No spoilers here, just some observations. Observe that after Maul took over the death watch, many of the mandalorians added spikes to their helmet in honor of Maul. Now, go and look at the helmet of The Armorer, the leader of Din D'Jarin's sect on The Mandalorian. Coincidence?
Highly recommend you at least read a summary of the comic Darth Maul: Son of Dathomir before you start season 7. It was intended to be an arc of the show but the series' cancellation led to it being adapted into a comic, and when the show returned for season 7 as they only had 12 episodes this story was not shown in the series but is still considered canon, so helps fill the holes as to what Palpatine used Maul for
First 99, and now this. It’s like they purposefully ordered the show in such a way where you always end up with the saddest episodes whenever you decide to take a break!
those two episodes and the Umbara arc and a few other arcs pretty much disprove the claim or assumption of some people that think "Clone Wars is just a cartoon for little kids"
We've all waited for you to get to this point. RIP Satine and welcome Satine's sister. Now you have more context of why Bo Katan wanted The Darksaber so badly in The Mandalorian, plus further context awaits in another show after you finish The Clone Wars.
I absolutely love your Clone Wars reactions, going to miss them for a while. From this point things get even more intense in the Clone Wars. I hope to see you back in the channel.
She said that it's the last reaction for her break she recorded them well before her break started she's just uploading these late there's another Clone Wars reaction next week!
Here's a fan theory for you, nobody knows who Korkie's parents are, he's not Bo's, so the we have been thinking that they hid a little Kenobi as a "nephew".
These two epesodes have two of my best duels in my top 10 list. Maul showing how sith warriors are and sidious showing why he's a sith lord. Plus I said when you saw these their would be tears and shock. And I was right. Plus in mauls duel in that one moment. Maul now controls all of mandalore and the crime families which really did make him a threat against sidioius would have more pull and control the more corruption in the galaxy. Plus the neutral systems would make him able to build up an army that could cause much damage.
That was a tough one for you to watch when you already needed a break! I hope your break helped and thank you for posting the video - as ever I enjoyed watching it and hearing what you had to say afterwards 🙂
Love that you're reacting to CW and some of the best episodes now. You're into geeky SW stuff and thick. A dream combination. Please open an IG for fans.
Sorry for having to take a break just after this... It's like 99's death while you were planning to move all over again. Taking a break on tragic episodes Well now at least you know why they titled in the Mandalorian episode "The heiress" now. Bo katan is Satine's sister so that makes her an heiress the next in line after a Dutches or Duke is Heiress or Heir. If the Ditches or Duke has no children then the relative goes next
Before starting season 7, I ABSOLUTELY recommend reacting to the SON OF DATHOMIR audio comic TH-cam video, it’s a comic brought to life by a narration audio, it’s amazing and fills in the gaps between THIS ending and where we’ll pickup with Maul in season 7. Here’s the full video! th-cam.com/video/HCDcloyH_I4/w-d-xo.html
5x16 was one of the best episode of the entire Clone Wars. It was movie quality (the duels, the music, the drama). They killed off major characters as we were aheading to the endgame of season 5 which was supposed to be the last one at that stage. Satine must have been written out as she was not onscreen on Ep. III. then the writers must have cut this emotional connection between Satine and Obi or how else would he able to live his life on Tattoine?
Notice that Mandalorians loyal to Maul have the horned helmets... which makes me have some serious doubts about the armorer from the Mandalorian show. (Not that I know what her deal is)
I will be a Satine and Bo-Katan defender till the day I die (minus the bad things Bo-Katan did, but she grew). I hope Satine's legacy plays a major role in Mandalorian Season 3 because there's a lot of lessons to be learned from her before their society can be healed. Not tha they'll go back to pacifism, it has it's flaws for sure, but they can learn a lot from her.
Sidious basically had to clean up his own mess. This whole fiasco started with him forcing Dooku to kill Ventress. It's pretty amazing how the story has unfolded.
It all worked out for Sidious in the end. I mean, Sidious fully knew that Dooku would 100% try to backstab him if he ever trained a pupil up to a high-enough level, whether it be Ventress, Savage, or Quinlan Vos. And given Ventress's repeated failures, he decided that she probably wasn't an asset worth keeping around if it only served as a reason for his apprentice to betray him. Ventress's rebellion also ultimately gave Palpatine the perfect excuse to wipe out the Nightsisters and Mother Talzin, though as if he ever needed a reason to do so anyway.
Not often he has to do his own dirty work. Great story line for sure.
That’s crazy, I never realized that.
He had a little play time.
@@TheGreater-ScopeVillainI mean isn’t it whole point of the rule of 2 for the apprentice to kill the master after they learned all the sith teaching but Sidous is a greedy bitch and destroyed the rule of 2 and exploited it 3 times, maul dooku, then tried it with vader and got a taste of his own medicine😂
In the Mandalorian they do call Bo-Katan "princess," though it's never mentioned there she's the Duchess Satine's sister, only that she's the heir to Mandalore's throne and the head of Clan Kryze. Now, two of the most important people in Obi-Wan's life have been personally killed by Maul: Qui-Gon and Satine.
The tragedy of Satine's death is that for such a strong and dynamic woman and leader, she ends reviled by her people, scorned by her family, and used for another's revenge. She goes from the driver of her own story, to a throwaway object in someone else's story. Her death is meaningless in every way possible.
That is tragedy.
That’s sad man
Easily among the best episodes of the series. Fantastic reaction from you, especially to Satine's death, what a gut punch! Sidious vs Maul and Savage might be my favourite lightsaber duel ever, it flawlessly captures the terror, ferocity and overpowering skill of Palpatine. The operatic music combined with his fluid motions is like watching a malevolent dance.
What's more chilling is that Palpy is a master of all seven lightsaber styles so he could've ended that fight in two seconds (even faster if he used his preferred weapon, the Force) but was sadistically toying with his opponents as it's likely the most fun he's had in years. An electrifying two episodes, Sith-pun totally intended.
I also love that Palpatine actually saw Maul as "a rival" - obviously at that time Maul couldn't hope to beat Palpatine but Palps was worried enough that he actually went himself to stop Maul before he could grow more powerful - both shows Palpatine being a terrifying villain and shows the terrifying potential of Maul that's still around when Palpatine doesn't kill him

THIS is the Sideous I wanted in ROTS- a pure evil, cackling killing machine that toys with two of the most dangerous force users in the galaxy
They didn't do much here, but my favorite aliens- the Pikes- we're here too! I love those fishy drug dealers!
Savage's death always makes me so sad for him. We saw in his first episode that he is not a bad person, but was corrupted first by Ventress/Talzin and then later by Maul.
I liked how his spikes on his head went back to the original size as soon as the Talzin's spell was broken with his death.
What a cinematic episode. Stories like this are why I prefer Clone Wars to some of the Star Wars movies themselves.
Satine’s death is so emotional. The soundtrack is beautiful. Even Savage dying is a little sad.
Adore Palpatine showing up to just end all the drama he wasn’t a part of. OBSESSED
Palpatine be like: *_"No drama is allowed to happen in this galaxy without my permission."_*
i love how satine’s and savage’s final words are the opposite of each other.
“i always will”
“i never was”
Never noticed that...
Jess: "I hope it's good."
TCW: "Challenge accepted."
Btw, we would have seen what happend with Palpatine and Maul after this arc in the (about) 40 still unfinished episodes (aka 10 arcs) which were cancelled in 2013 by Disney taking over Star Wars. I hope they show us these missing stories (on screen) again some time in the future.
The further story with Maul and Palpatine is called "Son of Dathomir" and is a comic now, btw. We can also see more of Sidious fighting in that arc which is always cool, imo.
According to the rule of star wars canon, there can't be two versions of the story. That means, since Son of Dathomir is a (really good) comic, it will never be on a TV screen. Same goes for the dark disciple stories which were turned into a book. But it's fine this way. This show is long enough. If the writers didn't stop focusing on this single project, many other great parts of star wars probably wouldn't exist.
@@Mis7erSeven Agreed. I would never trade Rebels for more of the unfinished Clone Wars episodes. I'm more than happy with what we've gotten and what we'll continue to get in the future.
I've been waiting for this episode since you started your Clone Wars reactions. 5*16: "The Lawless" is one of the absolute best Clone Wars episodes.
Visually stunning - the arial fight scenes were more cinematic than most movies!
I loved your final thoughts on both Satine and her relationship with Obi-Wan. ❤
18:01
Tim Curry provided the final lines for Palpatine after Ian Abercrombie’s death on January 11, 2012.
What happens to Maul next is covered in a comic entitled “Son of Dathomir” - there might be a narrated version on TH-cam but this takes place between season 6 and season 7 in case you consider reacting to it to fill in the blanks between his appearances on screen
th-cam.com/video/HCDcloyH_I4/w-d-xo.html
This one is pretty good
I would love to see the son of dathomir in clonewars style one day
“There’s gonna be a lot of shenanigans heading towards Satine’s way.” And many tears will be shed by all…
Maul became quite the planner, he learned his master's teachings well, it's a shame he had to go up against someone of sidious' caliber, the rise of darth maul would have been quite the sight.
Horrible, but impressive nonetheless.
Satine's death always breaks my heart, regardless of politics or whatever, she was just truly an amazingly kind person, no wonder Obi of all people fell for her.
This arc also showed how different maul was to sidious, even in his horrible villany, he truly loved his brother and unlike Dooku and Ventress who just tortured him, he actually trained him, he was progressing so much and showing so much more controlled brutality and skill.
Edit: Also as a Maul super fanboy, yeah my feelings when I watched that last episode was also "Fuck him" xD
In the deleted scenes of 5x16 we can see a big part of Savage's, Maul's and Palpatine's duell which they sadly cut out, probably because of time reasons.
Yeah, but according to Matt Martin on Twitter, they're canon.
And also because there is no way that Maul could ever gain the upper hand against Palpatine in a fight. EVER. The difference in skill and raw power between Sidious and all his apprentices is simply too vast.
@@thealmightypancakeface9585 Given the countless canon evidence of Sidious's power level and feats, I doubt that Maul gaining any sort of upper hand against Palpatine could be canon.
Can we talk about that insta-karma?
Maul kills an Angel, and that very night, the Devil himself knocks on his door…
23:06 I don't think it was mentioned in Mandalorian. But if I am not mistaken, I believe in Boba Fett, the Armorer mentions her full name "Bo-Katan Kryze". So if you remembered Satine's full name, Satine Kryze, you might've have been able to connect the dots. I think the Armorer said her full name.
Yea she definitely did.
In Mandalorian season 2 she told Mando "I'm Bo-Katan of clan Kryze" or something like that, she defenitly said name Kryze
@@toamszkozak8822 Noted. Haven't seen either shows since their initial release.
This might be a painful episode for people to watch, especially those who favoured Satine, but this is exactly the kind of excellant writing that makes a villan not only hated but feared.
You can dress a villan up in black clothes, have them act as emo and edgy as you like, but until they rip the heart out of your protaganist (and more effectivly your audience) they are not a true villan. This Episode Maul becomes just that, hated and feared... and its glorious.
Also, given what Maul got up to in 5x16, just how many people were rooting for Darth Sidious in that final fight :)
Love the reaction, although I think we're all crying in the club for Satine 😢. I think what's interesting about Maul is how he hides is inner loathing for himself inside his hatred for Obi-wan. When we meet him in CW his is under a pile of garbage and considers himself "filth" and "nothing". The only thing he has to live for is revenge. But this arc shows that what Maul is looking for is validation. He wants to believe that who he is isn't HIS fault, and that he is a victim of circumstance (via Kenobi and Sidious). Him trying to break Obi is him trying to free himself from his pain, because he believes that if Obi can break, then Maul can finally come to terms with himself by absolving himself from the responsibility of his character. He isn't simply incapable of introspection, he's terrified of it.
BTW This is not a Maul defense post, nor am I saying Maul wants to be a good guy. It's quite the opposite: he WANTS an excuse to be an evil POS. I will say however, for someone with only a cool design, a good fight and a couple of lines of dialogue in Episode I, CW definitely made him a VERY interesting character.
what also makes maul such an interesting villain, for me, is that unlike a lot of sith we see, he forms attachments to others, despite his efforts not to. he puts up a front of his relationship with savage only being that of a master and an apprentice, and yet in savage’s final moments we see that’s clearly not the case.
and i’m sure there was a bit of truth to maul wanting to return to sidious’ side, he’s visibly upset when he gets reminded that he’s been replaced.
like you said, for a character that originally only had maybe like 3 lines of dialogue, he’s become a pretty complex character lol
The Dutchess Satine's death made me cry too and probably a lot of us did. I agree with you on the Savage dies after Satine, so at least you have that, but Savage was a puppet from the get go. Makes you wonder what other "uses" Palpatine has in store for Maul.
The lawless single best episode of the clone wars so hard hitting and fast paced... and sidious ,love it..This is what we wanted in the Obi-Wan series thinking about her in the live action series maybe a flashback or something..Hey we could get season two with that , just saying the voice actress Anna Graves can play her in live action. we did see a lot of his pain and some of it was related to her i would think..... Well technically it's not mentioned in the Mandalorian but the episode name that she appears in kind of gives it away... The heiress ... You're gonna love Star Wars rebels lots of tears I find myself crying to that series more .. Enjoy your break the next story arc is god tier,, all the story arcs are great from here on out, till the end
I'm late to this party, so I'm sure this is already been mentioned, but the closest we get to a reference to Bo Katan's lineage in The Mandalorian is when boba Fett calls her "Princess".
The ship that Obi-Wan used to travel to Mandalore is the Twilight, it hasn't been seen again since Season 2 Episode 3.
To be fair even Obi-wan acknowledged that the nightsisters groomed Maul to be a sith and his reaction shows that it hit a nerve. Like with Savage who was literaly tortured and brainwashed into a monster. Tecknically Ventress is at fault for choosing Savage witch then led to Mauls revival so take that. Maul still aint a good dude and Bo-katan was literaly trying to dethrone Satine so that point is moot.
Most people are glad that the nightsisters got killed because of that.
Wow you chose a rough episode to take a break after. Satine's death is such a tragedy. Maul as a character is so driven for vengeance, for lots of good reasons.
I mean the next few arcs are also rough...
Powerful episode right 💥🤘⚡ Unfortunately The Voice Actor who played Lord Sidious/Palpatine Passed and this was he's last Episode 🙏 Amazing Performance For San Witwer aka Maul Clancy Brown aka Savage and James Arnold Taylor aka Obi Wan and Everyone I will never forget this episode 👏
And Tim Curry, the replacement voice for Darth Sidious/Palpatine, also did a really good job with those last few lines.
@@TheGreater-ScopeVillain That he did⚡🤘
Well... Sigh I honestly get so depressed when these episodes hit. A not so fun fact Obiwan almost fell to the darkside because of Satine's death, but because she would have hated that he let her go with a heavy heart. Thanks Dave Faloni
I kinda see this as a parallel to how the Sith manipulated the Mandalorians in the Mandalorian Wars in the Old Republic Era. And how Kreia said that they would die a slow death that lasts thousands of years.
It seems like only recently in The Mandalorian that they are truly recovering from all the wars that they've fought for and have been entangled in.
I hope that now that they're delving into Mandalore's history with the Mythosaur and stuff that they make some refferences to the Mandalorian Wars in the show. Like mentioning the Mandalore the Great helmet, how Revan hid it and basically scattering the mandos or a namedrop of Canderous Odo.
After this episode there are comics called Son of Dathomir that explain what happens to Maul. I recommend you read or watch them before you watch season 7.
Mauls return is one of 3 instances in the clone wars where palapatine's whole chess plan was out of his control and i think one of the two times he actually has to step in to be sure he maintains control so is plan can continue even then this is the only time where he is dealing with it personally out of the two times he does deal with it
These episodes are so hard to watch, but man, they're so good! "Only the weak embrace the Dark side"... Obi Wan will always be my favorite! And Sidious fighting like it was nothing, he was having so much evil fun, lol. Amazing reaction!
"Be the man that I love." Wow, you summarized that so beautifully. I think that Satine and Obiwan loved each other, and they loved the good that the other was trying to be, even if they didn't always agree with each other.
Everyone in this episode is a victim
Savage is a victim of Ventress
Maul is a victim of Palpatin
Visla is a victim of Maul
Satine is a victim of Visla and Maul
The only person who is not a victim is the Palpatine who created the Maul.
Maul would be like Savage if Palpatine hadn't picked him up from his mother. But all what Maul fell now is hate and revenge
Next arc is even better my personal top 1
A heartbreaking episode, but honestly, still only 2nd to 99's death, "the mission the nightmares, they're finally over", and victory and death. Though if you got attached to Satine, I can definitely understand this pain.
ARC 5555
Second time a character Ewan McGregor's played has had a love interest named "Satine" die in their arms.
Me, when Sesska declares another character I know is gonna die as her favorite: "Well, crud, here we go again."
Not to make it even worse for you but she dies in his arms just like Qui Gonn did by the hands of the same man. Obi Wan lost so much 😔
Season 5 episode 16 is a REALLY sad episode, as we end up loosing two great characters, Satine Kryze and Savage Opress.
Though it is almost poetic, that after Maul kills Satine in front of Obi-Wan, not long afterwards, Sidious comes and kills Savage in front of Maul.
Maul got what he deserved, though not the way one would have expected.
And then there is the whole thing with Savage's final words... God... "I am an unworthy apprentice. I am not like you, I never was." I feel like this almost mirrors what fans probably thought of Savage when he was first introduced. They probably thought "They are trying to replace Maul, but they could never even hope to do so." And Savage's final words hits so hard about this, because he was never going to replace Maul, he never had the chance even to do so. Fans got what they wanted regardless, Maul was brought back anyways, and proved that Savage wasn't even close to strong enough to beat him. Savage was not like Maul, he never was.
Anyways, Also want to mention that Maul, this being of fear and terror... An cunning and evil character hellbent on revenge, fearless and scary... To see all that crumble into a sense of absolute fear and begging... THAT is powerful, and shows just how powerful Sidious is.
Sidious came to put Maul in his place, and during the entire battle, he was TOYING with Maul and Savage. Neither one stood a chance. And as a result, Maul gets beaten, thrown and tortured while crawling and begging for mercy as he is as scared as a child. THAT is just so incredibly powerful.
Regardless though, Great reaction. Yeah, Satine's death is such a heartbreaking one. She was a great character, and it hurts so much to see her go.
Everything she stood for, broken by evil men who desired power and revenge. So sad. At least Maul got what he deserved, lost his brother at the hands of the ONE THING he feared more than anything.
These are top tier episodes for me. Maul building himself up so much; toppling empires. Fueled, and yet also blinded, by his hatred for Obi-Wan. Then everything getting undone just from a single visit from Sidious. Also really puts into perspective of how dangerous Sidious really is.
I remember rewatching Satine's death a few months ago on TH-cam, and two of the top comments were "Imagine if Maul cut her in half" and "Imagine if Maul stabbed her with Obi-Wan's lightsaber".
sesskasays While it's not as good as the former (or at least that's how it's perceived as 'Star Wars Clone Wars' series was so good), I do hope after you've finished reactions to 'Clone Wars' you go straight on to reacting to 'Star Wars Rebels' which please, it was actually pretty good in its own way, especially in its later seasons and so underrated, with a few great surprises along the way, a few arcs carrying over and the series itself isn't as long, (unless the powers that be decide to make a revival continuation in the future)... 😁
I was also hoping that she would get to that show
I think she would love Rebels for the "Found family"
I love Rebels so much, and just like clone war it started ok and went on to be just amazing.
I also really loved the main characters, maybe slightly more than clone wars ones.
@@iamthemetalgod Yep Rebels is my fave SW show, even if it never hits the heights of episodes like Lawless or ARC Troopers. It, like the majority of Clone Wars, is top tier Star Wars.
I am someone that really likes the first season. Especially since I run several star Wars RPG's.
th-cam.com/video/HCDcloyH_I4/w-d-xo.html
If you want to know what Sidious has plan for Maul, I suggest clicking this link and listen to an audio remake of a comic called Son of Dathomir. It centers on Maul and the power struggle he has with Sidious. The comic is based off of Clone Wars episodes that sadly never aired due to the shows original cancelation. These stories however, are extremely important. A lot happens in this comic that explains things that happen later in the show. I suggest including this comic in your reactions if you want to get the full story. Don’t worry, it’s really fun and engaging!!
I just watched it and damn, it's amazing. I hope she reacts to it
Satine's death still shocked me even though i knew it was coming, still surprised when it happened.
Hahahaha!!!! This might be my favorite reaction of the year!
Bet you never thought you'd be rooting for Sideous to beat some ass, did you?
Bo Katan Kries will be seen again in season 7 and elsewhere. We'll see more on the Mandelorian civil war- a LOT more.
And The Darksaber will be seen again too- it's a bad penny.
She's a complicated character.
You can see how Bo was the rebel younger sister...and how she embraced Deathwatch to get out of her sister's massive pacifist shadow.
Can we pour one out for The Twilight?
Damn, I loved Anakin's old freighter. Sad to see it go.
"If you were to face an ancient Sith Lord in combat, you would learn that we are as children playing with toys compared to the prowess of the old masters."
Agreed. The true sith make sidious and vader look like younglings. I've started becoming knowledgeable about this era for this summer and I'm now wanting to see that as a series just make sure disney don't touch this idea.
Hey, Kreia!
@@Generalphoenix8438 Plagueis and Sidious were so skilled in lightsaber combats and grow so much powerful in the force to the point were they do not need to use lightsabers.
@@HunterManProKiller1000 well that and compared to eras were the sih empire was at war with the republic so they had to rely on sabers and their abilities whilst sidious and pleagues hid in the shadows to strike at the right time. But sidious just got vader to do his heavy work while he played on his throne. And then got thrown in a reactor shaft. The sith empire just seems alot better. Their only problem was that the sith had too much infighting and no real tactical minds. A few did but not enough.
You were asking if Bo ever mentions her sister in the mandalorian; she does indirectly. She introduces herself as Bo Katan Kryze, and says she is the last of her line. The episode is called "the heiress", and it's partly why she wants to lead; if you went by a monarchy system, she'd be next in line. But there's plenty more mandalore stuff between here and the mandalorian, which give more insight.
So if you know Satine Kryze, and what happens here, then it adds up. But otherwise you wouldn't really notice. Kind of an "if you know, you know" way of referencing Satine.
12:52 That's why Bo is technically the rightfull heir to the throne of Mandalore.
Satine is one of the best SW characters ever- smart, funny and utterly resolute in her beliefs.
Such a strong character - she never begged- never compromised her ideals- never tried to cut a deal like that puppet Olmec.
I'd love to see those adventures of the year Satine and Obi Wan spent on the run from bounty hunters, back when he was just a Padawan and they were both young.
When the Chancellor tells Obi Wan two episodes ago not to bother with Maul, he always fully intended to deal with Maul personally. In a perverse way, Maul should be flattered that Sidious called him a rival to his face.
The next arc closes Season 5 and it too is an emotional rollercoaster.
While everyone in the Univers is afraid of Darth Vader... he is afraid of the Emperor... and this shows why :)
Sidious wasn't even sweating... he laughed and enjoyed himself during the fight.
Indeed. Palpatine has wrecked even Vader countless times in canon alone, in both lightsaber skill and Force power.
When they aren’t being badass warriors, there’s a level of tragedy I appreciate about the Mandalorians. Their warrior ways destroyed their worlds to a point where one faction broke away to try and start a new pacifist society only for their leader to be targeted by a terrorist group that included her own sister. Ultimately that group sided with a vicious Darksider who took over and plunged Mandalore into yet another civil war that paved the way for the culture to be broken and scattered by the time of The Mandalorian
Yu-gi-oh made a Star Wars themed set (Kosmo) and one of the cards was Kos-Mourning, with a pic of a character dying in another's arms.
I'm a Maul fan, but because he's such a great villain... so I get the hate! (Especially given your love of Satine) All I can say is that your hate just goes and shows what a great villain Maul is! :)
Darth Maul: a Lord of the Sith, criminal mastermind, ruler of Mandalore. Quite the resume.
"Oh it's so beautiful". Yes, right before Maul skewers Satine like a sacrificial lamb lol. Well, we still have Bo Katan, and she makes appearances in Rebels and in the live action Mandalorian series. I'm more of a Riyo Chuchi fan myself.
Even before Kenobi came out people were worried about this coming up because it serves as such a fundamental part of his character.
This show makes Obi Wan one of my favourite characters with his arc in it.
Forget Jabba's Palace. The Mandalorian Throne Room is the _real_ party place.
Satine dies in Obi-Wan’s arms
and
Satine dies in Cristian’s arms
It’s ashamed the show got canceled because the original comic line that was supposed to adapt the mandolorians busting out maul and him returning to mandalore got scrapped I still remember many being confused as to how he even got back to the planet in the first place lol
In Mandalorina, the only slight hint is that Bo-Katan said she was from clan Kryze. Nothing else was said about her relationship with Satine in that show.
This part of CW was weird because I never thought I'd be rooting for Palpatine... But after Maul offed Satine it's like... hell yeah, get 'im!
It also sets the groundwork for one of Obi-Wan's defining characteristic. REALLY comes out in... well.. spoilers. But the thing that truly defines him as a character is forgiveness.
One of my favorite episodes of Clone Wars and I love a lot of Clone Wars. Palpatine....wow...
Maul's story continues in the son of dathomir comics. You should read/watch them after season 6. It's a big arc that was supposed to be part of TCW before it got cancelled. I think it's a must read. You can watch it on TH-cam.
No spoilers here, just some observations. Observe that after Maul took over the death watch, many of the mandalorians added spikes to their helmet in honor of Maul. Now, go and look at the helmet of The Armorer, the leader of Din D'Jarin's sect on The Mandalorian. Coincidence?
Highly recommend you at least read a summary of the comic Darth Maul: Son of Dathomir before you start season 7. It was intended to be an arc of the show but the series' cancellation led to it being adapted into a comic, and when the show returned for season 7 as they only had 12 episodes this story was not shown in the series but is still considered canon, so helps fill the holes as to what Palpatine used Maul for
Mandalorian 2x03 was titled “The Heiress” because of the revelations of this episode
Best lightsaber duel of the clone wars and my favorite episode of the show
Characters that look like Ewan McGregor 🤝Girls called Satine dying in their arms
First 99, and now this. It’s like they purposefully ordered the show in such a way where you always end up with the saddest episodes whenever you decide to take a break!
those two episodes and the Umbara arc and a few other arcs pretty much disprove the claim or assumption of some people that think "Clone Wars is just a cartoon for little kids"
We've all waited for you to get to this point. RIP Satine and welcome Satine's sister. Now you have more context of why Bo Katan wanted The Darksaber so badly in The Mandalorian, plus further context awaits in another show after you finish The Clone Wars.
I think Bo Katan never mentioned her last name in the clone wars, she does says is in the Mandalorian tho Bo katan Kryze, Satine Kryze
Funny enough, seasons 1-5 were aired on Cartoonnetwork.
I'm scared about the last act of season 5 😭😭😭
It's interesting seeing Maul's shrine to Satine, or rather her murder, in Rebels. It was probably the last time he was happy
7:55 That's when Bo started to do her own thing, isn't it?
I absolutely love your Clone Wars reactions, going to miss them for a while. From this point things get even more intense in the Clone Wars. I hope to see you back in the channel.
She said that it's the last reaction for her break she recorded them well before her break started she's just uploading these late there's another Clone Wars reaction next week!
If only Satine had a conversation with Odin
"A wise king never seeks out war, but must always be ready for it."
Here's a fan theory for you, nobody knows who Korkie's parents are, he's not Bo's, so the we have been thinking that they hid a little Kenobi as a "nephew".
Thats just nonsense made up by fans, like that Jar-Jar was somehow a Sith Lord, Ahsoka and Qui-Gon are 'grey Jedi' and Vapaad.
@@shugaroony Hence the words "fan theory" right there.
@@Murdok9999 And Filoni himself sniggered at the suggestion. We move on.
These two epesodes have two of my best duels in my top 10 list. Maul showing how sith warriors are and sidious showing why he's a sith lord. Plus I said when you saw these their would be tears and shock. And I was right.
Plus in mauls duel in that one moment. Maul now controls all of mandalore and the crime families which really did make him a threat against sidioius would have more pull and control the more corruption in the galaxy. Plus the neutral systems would make him able to build up an army that could cause much damage.
Darth Sidious: not just *_A_* Sith Lord, but *_THE_* Sith Lord.
That was a tough one for you to watch when you already needed a break!
I hope your break helped and thank you for posting the video - as ever I enjoyed watching it and hearing what you had to say afterwards 🙂
We are almost there guys... Just a week or two...
This is the Game of Thrones arc of Star Wars.
the fact that the droids had 4 episodes and maul had 3 lol
Love that you're reacting to CW and some of the best episodes now. You're into geeky SW stuff and thick. A dream combination. Please open an IG for fans.
Sorry for having to take a break just after this... It's like 99's death while you were planning to move all over again. Taking a break on tragic episodes
Well now at least you know why they titled in the Mandalorian episode "The heiress" now. Bo katan is Satine's sister so that makes her an heiress the next in line after a Dutches or Duke is Heiress or Heir. If the Ditches or Duke has no children then the relative goes next
She's done with her break she recorded these episodes before the long before this video is just being uploaded late.
F in the Chat for Satine the Duchess of Mandalore :'(
Nice! I was waiting for 5x16.
8:57 Jess being all of us at that moment. Almech... FKN POLITICIANS!!! 😂😂
So far as cannon we still don't know if Satine had a child by Obi-wan. back in the day that he did not know about.
Satine dies in Moulin Rouge AND in Star Wars. Ewan can't catch a break!
No-Katan betrayed the way of Mandalorians by not bowing to Maul or challenge him for the position. She is a traitor and is by culture now Dar’manda.
Before starting season 7, I ABSOLUTELY recommend reacting to the SON OF DATHOMIR audio comic TH-cam video, it’s a comic brought to life by a narration audio, it’s amazing and fills in the gaps between THIS ending and where we’ll pickup with Maul in season 7. Here’s the full video!
th-cam.com/video/HCDcloyH_I4/w-d-xo.html
Sidious went to fight Maul and Savage because he was an Obi-Wan and Satine shipper and got pissed off
5x16 was one of the best episode of the entire Clone Wars. It was movie quality (the duels, the music, the drama). They killed off major characters as we were aheading to the endgame of season 5 which was supposed to be the last one at that stage. Satine must have been written out as she was not onscreen on Ep. III. then the writers must have cut this emotional connection between Satine and Obi or how else would he able to live his life on Tattoine?
Some of the best Star Wars here.
I knew you weren't going to be alright for this episode. I was waiting a long time for "The Lawless" and you didn't disappoint lol.
Notice that Mandalorians loyal to Maul have the horned helmets... which makes me have some serious doubts about the armorer from the Mandalorian show. (Not that I know what her deal is)
I will be a Satine and Bo-Katan defender till the day I die (minus the bad things Bo-Katan did, but she grew). I hope Satine's legacy plays a major role in Mandalorian Season 3 because there's a lot of lessons to be learned from her before their society can be healed. Not tha they'll go back to pacifism, it has it's flaws for sure, but they can learn a lot from her.
