Jango’s armor is Beskar because he was very much a soldier fighting Tor Vizla with Jaster Mareel at his side. Jango was an orphan indoctrinated into Mandalorian culture. His armor is Beskar.

@@cleit1802 With the cloning already going on in the Mandalorian series I have a feeling there will be a big tie in to the sequel trilogy at the end of the series. I have this feeling the Mandelorian is what gets Reys father to Jakku and hides him there.
Here's one for the feels - when Ahsoka says Grogu's name, that's probably the first time he's heard his name said out loud since the day the Jedi Order & The Republic fell.
I think the reason Ahsoka didn't say she wasn't a jedi is because casual fans just watching Mando wouldn't understand why she has lightsabers and can use the force but isn't a jedi
Yea agreed, and additionally i think not denying the Jedi title serves her purposes against those she fights. Not sure how public Luke has been making his efforts in making his Jedi Order, but at this time the Jedi would be legendary, mythical figures. Being one, or being seen as one, would probably work in her favor from a psychological standpoint against her enemies. She never calls herself a Jedi, but she doesn't deny it either.
I love how when Asoka said, “And Grogu can choose his path...,” there was a subtle movement of Grogu grasping Mando’s finger. Just like a toddler would. Heart melt. Loved those little things they include.
So interesting fact here ladies and gentlemen the actress who plays the magistrate is the goddaughter of Bruce Lee and the gunslinger is the actor who played Kyle Reese in the very first Terminator movie
@@jesusmarval1518 its. People have said it was like a wester + samurai episode but it was wester + old Chinese fighting movies. I guess most westerners couldn't tell the difference even if their life depended on it lol
Thrawn being back is such a HUGE risk to the New Republic. The one man that could gather the remnants of Empire and cause so much damage and possibly undo everything. I love it .
Who said his intention is to do damage? He wants to create empire to save Galaxy from incoming Grysk invasion. Palpatine Empire is lesser evil for him. Palpatine Empire at least can fight back Grysk, Republic isn't even able to do it.
I was surprised Ahsoka didn’t join Mando at the end, but it makes sense why because she has her own task of finding Thrawn and possibly Ezra bridger with him. This could also mean that Thrawn has control of an imperial Remnant, and perhaps Moff Gideon is one of his associates in charge of creating force sensitive Dark troopers. Overall this episode was amazing, because it gave me exactly what I wanted too see, a badass Ahsoka Tano in live action. Speaking of a live action transition Rosario Dawson did a phenomenal job capturing Ahsoka’s mannerisms and personality realistically. I love the design they chose for her, and seeing her cloak she wore in The finale of Clone wars was great. A little peculiar why she no longer has the white robes, but it makes sense considering for this episode she was trying to stay in the shadows. I Hope this isn’t the last we see of Ahsoka in The mandalorian because Rosario was truly remarkable in the role.
I don't know it was purposely "fan-service" that her montrals and horns are in the same stage as the Clone Wars Era, and they will be later being upgraded. I assumed she will have a familiar look to Shaak-Ti by now.
@@bencebotye3904 her montrals are shorter for a couple reasons. One is because it was the only way for the choreography to work. The actress who played shaak ti had an incredibly difficult time with mobility because of how long the montrals were on her. Rebels is also very unique stylistically, many things looked different due to the animation style (lightsabers, Vader's helmet, etc.). Ahsoka's montrals are no exception
@@bencebotye3904 it’s a possibility that some togrutas have different Lekku formations, in the prequels Shaak Ti’s are rather long and noticeable, whereas Ahsoka’s are still relatively short either because it was too difficult to replicate the Rebels headtails, or because it was the design that worked best.
And Dan Inosanto’s daughter. Dan Inosanto is also a well respected legend in the Martial Arts world of his own tight. He taught Bruce Lee stick fighting and he put him in Game of Death. They were friends.
@@Bryfficial Being able to project as a force ghost beyond death is very new to jedi. Qui-Gonn was the first to start the training though he never finished before death which is why he has only shown up at temples. He got word to Yoda who is the first to complete the training and Yoda told Obi-Wan in RotS before they went into hiding.
Oh btw the shorter head thingy was because of the fight scenes Disney has said they said they had them longer but with all the flipping and stuff they had to shorten them!
I have watched a lot of these reactions, no one has mentioned the look at the end, just before she walks away. That is totally Snips from Clone Wars. I was worried about them ruining my favorite character, they did her so right in this episode. Thanks Dave, Jon, Rosario, and everyone else responsible for this.
Ahsoka may seem like she’s sad in some instances, and most she seems fairly neutral and often times more happy. like, she went through a lot, that’s undeniable. but, I think it’s more her friends and those glimpses into her past which make her happy again. I think in a way she’s happier now, more so than what she’s ever been, but can be more emotional at times unlike when she was a Jedi of the Order, but still retains control of herself. Honestly, been a fan of ahsoka since I was a kid back in 2008, and now I’m 18 and so happy to see how far she’s come. she’s perhaps the purest version of what a Jedi should be.
Michael Biehn is known for characters that use shotguns. In The Terminator he uses one against the T-800 in most of the movie, and in Aliens he brandishes one and says the line "I like to keep this for close encounters". That's the reason he had a pump action blaster in this.

"I've got no quarrel with you...." Straight from Tombstone. LOVED that they had Michael Biehn repeat that line. If Mando had said, "I'm your huckleberry", I would have exploded! I love Bendu's remark, "....dumbshit."😁
Given the episode is still up and not taken down @NerdChronic already gets my seal of approval. I know I said it already on the patreon comments but that episode was everything I was hoping we were going to get
LOVE YOUR CHANNEL...i always look forward to coming here to learn alot more of this show...and star wars...so i am happy you got a editor who will make sure your vids hit as many people as possible!!! Good job! I wish yall the best.
You have to give Dave and John so much credit for being willing to really go all in on this show. The sound design in this episode was so on point, hearing Ahsoka's and Yoda's themes was so great and sad at the same time. Rosario did a great job and damn that reveal of Thrawn.
BTW, regarding the previous episode if you turn on the descriptive audio option the narrator actually calls those figures in the final scene "Dark Troopers".
Grand admiral is highest rank in the imperial navy along with Grand moff at the highest regional government rank , that puts moff gideon second in command below grand admiral and grand moff. Thrawn is in control of the remaining imperial forces after the ROTJ event
It's not 4 years. The last time we heard her voice in the Rebels was before the new hope. These events happening here are 5 years after the return of the Jedi. At least 12/13 years passed. She was around 30 there, now she is 45.
Tython _and_ HK droids? Does this mean they're making the Old Republic stuff canon? Revan, Darth Traya, Valkorian, all of it? Cause holy shit that that would be awesome.
RIP David Prowse the man behind the armour of 'Darth Vader', 1 coolest badass villains in movie history... & the infamous 'Greencross code man' from late 70s/80s here in 🇬🇧
Glad to see progress with your vids staying up. You guys are always one of the first I want to see react. Specially these these past 3 episodes. Amazing Star Wars content we’re getting
I'm seriously amazed at how Filoni and Favreau can balance rewarding fans of clones and rebels with so many drops and references, with making it badass enough that casuals can enjoy it. Give the keys to them already! They're making 2020 bearable
I don't know if you know this but the Enforcer guy who stands off with the Mandalorian is Michael Biehn who played in Tombstone, Terminator and one of the Alien movies. And the woman Ashoka faces off against is played by the Goddaughter of Bruce Lee and is a legendary actor and martial artist in the cinema world. There was some serious pedigree in this episode. Also I heard that Hayden is coming back and is cask as Anakin for season's 3 and 4 and will be interacting with Ashoka. And there were soooo many Old Republic easter eggs in this episode as well as Thrawn and possibly Erza so this is exciting.
I know, right! I love Michael in all the shows he is in. Check him out in the movie, K2. Its really good. "I got no quarrel with you, Mandalorian." "Fight's not with you, Holliday." What a great tip of the hat to a great prior movie showdown scene.
i read somewhere else someone said how it was interesting she held her sabers like most other jedi did until she lost the one then reverted to her normal stance with the saber basically showing she wasn't really taking the fight serious at first
21:50 the actor he was in game of thrones with his character knew spear mastery. Pedro learned bit of real spear arts so for sure expect a episode of him fighting ppl with it.
"I've seen what it can do to a fully fledged Jedi Knight. To the best of us...." She still remembers her master after so long. I hope Luke told her how Anakin was brought back to the light and killed Palpatine.
I'm glad you guys touched on how Grogu and Ahsoka have gone through a lot of tragedy in their lives. Speaking of which, do you think that Grogu's life experiences may have developmentally set him back a bit? A life of hiding and being passed around among various factions as a "commodity", depriving him of social interaction could have contributed to him being "unable" to speak outside of telepathy. Yoda is already instructing young Jedi by his 100th year iirc and Grogu is already halfway there, but is still stuck to cooing like an infant, when he probably should be capable of some basic, at least at a toddler level. His adventures with Din Djarin may be Grogu's first taste of "positive" social interaction since being taken away from the temple at Coruscant, despite all the violence it exposes him to. He seems to have been opening up more recently though and I wonder if we will be able to hear him speak his first words of basic this season. :) Also, what would Grogu's name be like relative to Mando? Din Grogu? Grogu Djarin? XD
(18:28) I did watch through the episode again just to check and it does appear that the bad guy’s weapon is a shotgun blaster not a slugthrower. For one thing the sound and appearance of the weapon firing is wrong. For another it has seven barrels, not the one or two that a slugthrower would have. I would love to see slugthrowers being used in a live action production by someone other than the Sand People or villainous assassins (Aurra Sing, Zam Wessel, etc.). Though I would take a villain using a Verpine slugthrower or FC-1 flechette launcher...
Yes Beskar is light saber proof that's the whole point, During the Great Mandalorian - Jedi war which was led by the Great mandalore as referenced by the Armorer the Mandalorian's discovered the metal and it's properties to withstand light saber's and used it in their armor and weapon's to combat the Jedi and at some point's bested them and pushed them back in the Great Crusade. And it's the reason the Magistrate wanted to hire him, Mandalorian's were known as Jedi Killer's.
My God! I know right?! All throughout the episode, I just thought Ahsoka had these PTSDs. She's like "ive seen stuff, this and that.." like she's wanting to share a story. A burden. She's like Obi-wan in her state but the only difference is that Obi-wan knows what he's looking at by watching over Luke whereas Ahsoka is still looking for her friends, particularly Ezra. Her theme playing in the end reminds us on what she went through. When it comes to Star Wars lore, i always look for your reactions. Love it!
11:05 You're extensive knowledge in the Star Wars Universe is so great! Like just recognizing that droid from a scene I can't even remember is just great!
I rate this reaction 14 out of 10 Kyle Katarn shocked faces. You obviously needed NerdChronic help - because here it is - and to be honest I don't see what's different than what you've done before - so kudos to NC. "I can't train him!" "Because he's too old?????" Let's face it he's clearly older than 9. And I kept a promise to myself that if this reaction didn't get up by Saturday I would subscribe to your Patreon. I am probably your oldest paduwan.
I wonder if Ahsoka considers herself a Jedi again, at least by religion. She kinda seemed more like a Jedi this episode than she did in Rebels, but maybe it's just me.
It would confuse casual fans because it wouldn't make sense to them. Lots of casual fans met her for the first time in this episode. But she did imply she wasn't a Jedi, she just didn't directly state it.
A jedi who makes a murderous series in the shadows, by brutal killings ? It bothers me a bit. What I underline on the other hand, Jedi or not, for a user " lightside" of the force it seems extreme to me. Am I the only one to be a little surprised by her?
@@Thotho886 She was killing soldiers in a war, effectively. If she didn't kill them, they would kill her, not to mention their brutal treatment of slaves. Jedi weren't against killing, particularly in self-defense or defense of others; they were against needlessly killing. For comparison, we see Obi-Wan and Yoda killing clones in ROTS. Obi-Wan cut off the arm of that one guy in A New Hope. Luke killed everyone on the Death Star to save countless lives. And, Luke killed everyone on the sail barge to save his friend, who admittedly was being punished for not returning a debt on time. Those clones didn't choose to fight the Jedi; they were practically being mind-controlled. Those stormtroopers didn't order the attack on Alderaan, many of them may not have even known what was the Death Star was. The fact is that the Jedi are responsible for bringing peace to the galaxy. And sometimes, that means fighting the good fight. And sometimes, that means killing hostiles, even if your enemy is just a bunch of good soldiers following the orders or tyrants. Such is the way of war. Keep in mind that when one soldier ran away in fear; she let him live because she saw that he wasn't going to put up a fight. The only morally ambiguous thing she did in my opinion (as far as Jedi religion is concerned) is stealth kills, where the opponent didn't get a good chance to surrender. Also the killings weren't that brutal. She didn't torture them or make them suffer; her kills were swift and effective.
As for the voice ,Yes she was last seen in the epilogue of rebels but she disn't speak in the epilogue of rebels. The last time we heard her was 11 years ago at malachor.
Great reaction guys!! I also didn't expect her to show up so early on lol, posted my reaction well if you wanna have a look! Btw I love that Rogue one connection you made about the opening scene that is actually the perfect parallel!!
Everything was so spot on in this, everything. The Filoni-verse is where SW is at. Ashoka transfer over was perfect. I cried so many times and have rewatched about 12 times now lol
The episode very reminded me to Princess Mononoke. Known fact that Filoni was highly inspired by San from that movie in the creation of Ashoka. Just wish it was a two-parter!
I'm thinking that right after a Ahsoka got the information about where Thrawn was, that's when she goes and picks up Sabine on Lothal & that's when the search for Ezra begins. In other words, Ahsoka finding out where Thrawn was sets up the ending scene we saw in Rebels.
That last scene of her smiling with her theme playing still gets me. I grew up watching clone wars, I grew up watching Ahsoka age throughout Star Wars. To see her in live action now will always be one of my favorite moments in Star Wars
when Jedi Grogu put his hands on that incubator tank with all the eggs the first time the eggs ,they were going to him slightly that was awesome The Savage little Yoda

Another example would be watching a movie for a first time, and hating it. That would be a bad memorable experience.
Yearlonggiant Thanks for replying, I thought that I was missing an inside joke. Greetings from México!!
@@twopaintings your welcome 👍🏻
@@twopaintings Also as it says if at first you would do something in incorrect way, you would learn it and you will try do it again in correct way.
Just like training.
I’m glad nerdcronic can do the bits for you
Samurai showdown and western standoff happening simultaneously. Gotta love it
"I've got no quarrel with you...."
Straight from Tombstone. LOVED that they had Michael Biehn repeat that line. If Mando had said, "I'm your huckleberry", I would have exploded!
I love Bendu's remark, "....dumbshit."😁
Why Johnny Ringo, you look like someone just...walked over your grave!
@@theduckchick Ahsoka: "You tell 'em I'm comin'! And Mando's comin' with me!!"
Dang it... I didn't read your post before I posted. I know... let's have a spelling contest. 🤣
@@kendallshimabukuro6250 "You're a daisy if ya do." Waaay too many quotes to choose from😁!
Given the episode is still up and not taken down @NerdChronic already gets my seal of approval.
I know I said it already on the patreon comments but that episode was everything I was hoping we were going to get
LOVE YOUR CHANNEL...i always look forward to coming here to learn alot more of this show...and star wars...so i am happy you got a editor who will make sure your vids hit as many people as possible!!! Good job! I wish yall the best.
You have to give Dave and John so much credit for being willing to really go all in on this show. The sound design in this episode was so on point, hearing Ahsoka's and Yoda's themes was so great and sad at the same time. Rosario did a great job and damn that reveal of Thrawn.
BTW, regarding the previous episode if you turn on the descriptive audio option the narrator actually calls those figures in the final scene "Dark Troopers".
Epic stuff guys.worth the wait to see you both geek out.kudos to new editor👍
"No! I've seen what such emotions can do to a fully trained Jedi Knight. To the best of us..."
I just realized, they just gave Din Djarin the tool (the Beskar spear) to fight Moff Gideon's dark saber.
This is literally my favorite star wars channel! I got you on patreon!
Grand admiral is highest rank in the imperial navy along with Grand moff at the highest regional government rank , that puts moff gideon second in command below grand admiral and grand moff. Thrawn is in control of the remaining imperial forces after the ROTJ event
It's not 4 years. The last time we heard her voice in the Rebels was before the new hope. These events happening here are 5 years after the return of the Jedi. At least 12/13 years passed. She was around 30 there, now she is 45.
No at this time luke is still traveling around the galaxy collecting artifacts and holocrons
About that. ;)
Mad props for your insane lore knowledge, man. That's why I love your reactions. Always something new to learn.
I'm calling a final battle between Moff Gideon with the Dark Saber vs. Mando with the Beskar Spear..
Tython _and_ HK droids? Does this mean they're making the Old Republic stuff canon? Revan, Darth Traya, Valkorian, all of it? Cause holy shit that that would be awesome.
RIP David Prowse the man behind the armour of 'Darth Vader', 1 coolest badass villains in movie history...
& the infamous 'Greencross code man' from late 70s/80s here in 🇬🇧
Here's one for you guys The magistrate is Diana Lee Inosanto Bruce lee's grand daughter ^^
5-1 Thrawn & Moff Gideon ARE working together.
I hope Grogu doesn't get sent to Luke because then he'll get killed by Kylo.
Edit: Well, shit.
@@Zenapprentice can you imagine a tiny football sized Knight of Ren with a little bitty helmet 😱
😬😬😬😬
Glad to see progress with your vids staying up. You guys are always one of the first I want to see react. Specially these these past 3 episodes. Amazing Star Wars content we’re getting
I'm seriously amazed at how Filoni and Favreau can balance rewarding fans of clones and rebels with so many drops and references, with making it badass enough that casuals can enjoy it. Give the keys to them already! They're making 2020 bearable
Im getting massive heir to the empire vibes. If Thrawn is in control of the Imperial remnant, that will make folk so happy.
I hope this sets up Heir to the Empire. I could die happy if Filoni and Faveru adapt those books. 😁
That would be awesome!!!
You guys are the best reactors for star wars you know exactly what you're watching.
I don't know if you know this but the Enforcer guy who stands off with the Mandalorian is Michael Biehn who played in Tombstone, Terminator and one of the Alien movies. And the woman Ashoka faces off against is played by the Goddaughter of Bruce Lee and is a legendary actor and martial artist in the cinema world. There was some serious pedigree in this episode.
Also I heard that Hayden is coming back and is cask as Anakin for season's 3 and 4 and will be interacting with Ashoka.
And there were soooo many Old Republic easter eggs in this episode as well as Thrawn and possibly Erza so this is exciting.
I know, right! I love Michael in all the shows he is in. Check him out in the movie, K2. Its really good.
"I got no quarrel with you, Mandalorian."
"Fight's not with you, Holliday."
What a great tip of the hat to a great prior movie showdown scene.
The fact they got Dan Inosanto's daughters to play as one of Thrawn's students made this episode even better!
I’ve been waiting for your reaction ! Haha ! Love your content man ❤️
damn shoutout to nerd chronic he edits all the reaction channels I watch lmao
i read somewhere else someone said how it was interesting she held her sabers like most other jedi did until she lost the one then reverted to her normal stance with the saber basically showing she wasn't really taking the fight serious at first
21:50 the actor he was in game of thrones with his character knew spear mastery. Pedro learned bit of real spear arts so for sure expect a episode of him fighting ppl with it.
"I've seen what it can do to a fully fledged Jedi Knight. To the best of us...." She still remembers her master after so long. I hope Luke told her how Anakin was brought back to the light and killed Palpatine.
I really hope they save Ezra for a rebels sequel series instead of just randomly this season
I'm glad you guys touched on how Grogu and Ahsoka have gone through a lot of tragedy in their lives. Speaking of which, do you think that Grogu's life experiences may have developmentally set him back a bit? A life of hiding and being passed around among various factions as a "commodity", depriving him of social interaction could have contributed to him being "unable" to speak outside of telepathy. Yoda is already instructing young Jedi by his 100th year iirc and Grogu is already halfway there, but is still stuck to cooing like an infant, when he probably should be capable of some basic, at least at a toddler level.
His adventures with Din Djarin may be Grogu's first taste of "positive" social interaction since being taken away from the temple at Coruscant, despite all the violence it exposes him to. He seems to have been opening up more recently though and I wonder if we will be able to hear him speak his first words of basic this season. :)
Also, what would Grogu's name be like relative to Mando? Din Grogu? Grogu Djarin? XD
(18:28) I did watch through the episode again just to check and it does appear that the bad guy’s weapon is a shotgun blaster not a slugthrower. For one thing the sound and appearance of the weapon firing is wrong. For another it has seven barrels, not the one or two that a slugthrower would have. I would love to see slugthrowers being used in a live action production by someone other than the Sand People or villainous assassins (Aurra Sing, Zam Wessel, etc.). Though I would take a villain using a Verpine slugthrower or FC-1 flechette launcher...
Yes Beskar is light saber proof that's the whole point, During the Great Mandalorian - Jedi war which was led by the Great mandalore as referenced by the Armorer the Mandalorian's discovered the metal and it's properties to withstand light saber's and used it in their armor and weapon's to combat the Jedi and at some point's bested them and pushed them back in the Great Crusade.
And it's the reason the Magistrate wanted to hire him, Mandalorian's were known as Jedi Killer's.
My God! I know right?!
All throughout the episode, I just thought Ahsoka had these PTSDs. She's like "ive seen stuff, this and that.." like she's wanting to share a story. A burden. She's like Obi-wan in her state but the only difference is that Obi-wan knows what he's looking at by watching over Luke whereas Ahsoka is still looking for her friends, particularly Ezra. Her theme playing in the end reminds us on what she went through.
When it comes to Star Wars lore, i always look for your reactions. Love it!
11:05 You're extensive knowledge in the Star Wars Universe is so great! Like just recognizing that droid from a scene I can't even remember is just great!
I rate this reaction 14 out of 10 Kyle Katarn shocked faces. You obviously needed NerdChronic help - because here it is - and to be honest I don't see what's different than what you've done before - so kudos to NC. "I can't train him!" "Because he's too old?????" Let's face it he's clearly older than 9.
And I kept a promise to myself that if this reaction didn't get up by Saturday I would subscribe to your Patreon. I am probably your oldest paduwan.
"How she going to test him? Throw rocks at him" Hahaha
I wonder if Ahsoka considers herself a Jedi again, at least by religion. She kinda seemed more like a Jedi this episode than she did in Rebels, but maybe it's just me.
Yeah, that is possibly the reason that she no longer corrects people, because she considers herself a Jedi again.
It would confuse casual fans because it wouldn't make sense to them. Lots of casual fans met her for the first time in this episode. But she did imply she wasn't a Jedi, she just didn't directly state it.
@@gregoryschweitzer1735 I don't think it would confuse anyone, if she said "I'm no Jedi."
A jedi who makes a murderous series in the shadows, by brutal killings ?
It bothers me a bit.
What I underline on the other hand, Jedi or not, for a user " lightside" of the force it seems extreme to me.
Am I the only one to be a little surprised by her?
@@Thotho886 She was killing soldiers in a war, effectively. If she didn't kill them, they would kill her, not to mention their brutal treatment of slaves. Jedi weren't against killing, particularly in self-defense or defense of others; they were against needlessly killing.
For comparison, we see Obi-Wan and Yoda killing clones in ROTS. Obi-Wan cut off the arm of that one guy in A New Hope. Luke killed everyone on the Death Star to save countless lives. And, Luke killed everyone on the sail barge to save his friend, who admittedly was being punished for not returning a debt on time. Those clones didn't choose to fight the Jedi; they were practically being mind-controlled. Those stormtroopers didn't order the attack on Alderaan, many of them may not have even known what was the Death Star was.
The fact is that the Jedi are responsible for bringing peace to the galaxy. And sometimes, that means fighting the good fight. And sometimes, that means killing hostiles, even if your enemy is just a bunch of good soldiers following the orders or tyrants. Such is the way of war.
Keep in mind that when one soldier ran away in fear; she let him live because she saw that he wasn't going to put up a fight. The only morally ambiguous thing she did in my opinion (as far as Jedi religion is concerned) is stealth kills, where the opponent didn't get a good chance to surrender.
Also the killings weren't that brutal. She didn't torture them or make them suffer; her kills were swift and effective.
Ahsoka nailing it in live-action is one thing, then she mentioned Thrawn! This is too much lol, no wonder Kyle's head exploded! :D
As for the voice ,Yes she was last seen in the epilogue of rebels but she disn't speak in the epilogue of rebels. The last time we heard her was 11 years ago at malachor.
I just noticed Bendu's airbender tattoos on his forearm. That is so awesome!
Such a shame Jango's neck wasn't protected by beskar
🤣
IIRC, Jango's armor isn't beskar at all, same with Boba.
@@yanaigelbfish1568 i think this was retconned in The Marshal because Bobas Armor reflected the mining-guild's blasterfire similar to Mando's beskar.
Loved the reaction. So pleased to see real Star Wars people appreciate and understand what they are seeing.
Kept refreshing to see if this was posted. Couldn’t wait to see your reactions.
I think you guys are the only reactors that knew of Tython.
Also could Ashoka be trying to use the child to try and find Ezra
Great reaction guys!! I also didn't expect her to show up so early on lol, posted my reaction well if you wanna have a look! Btw I love that Rogue one connection you made about the opening scene that is actually the perfect parallel!!
Your channel and content are terrific! You showed up in my feed yesterday! Awesome cosplay!
dudes, you guys have the best reactions/reviews. worth waiting for. keep it coming.
this channel is such a gem, hope you guys dont get any more strikes, keep up the reactions dudes!
Everything was so spot on in this, everything. The Filoni-verse is where SW is at. Ashoka transfer over was perfect. I cried so many times and have rewatched about 12 times now lol
Give him and Favreau the reigns over the whole franchise. Magic would happen
Everyone praises filoni...it wouldnt be possible if jon favreau did create this show
You mean the star wars universe?
Fun fact: The HK-87s had the symbol of Thawn's 7th Fleet on the side of their heads.
hm, did anyone notice the music when Mando is getting baby yoda from the ship- almost medieval. Like a knight returning
The episode very reminded me to Princess Mononoke. Known fact that Filoni was highly inspired by San from that movie in the creation of Ashoka. Just wish it was a two-parter!
I'm thinking that right after a Ahsoka got the information about where Thrawn was, that's when she goes and picks up Sabine on Lothal & that's when the search for Ezra begins. In other words, Ahsoka finding out where Thrawn was sets up the ending scene we saw in Rebels.
That last scene of her smiling with her theme playing still gets me. I grew up watching clone wars, I grew up watching Ahsoka age throughout Star Wars. To see her in live action now will always be one of my favorite moments in Star Wars
when Jedi Grogu put his hands on that incubator tank with all the eggs the first time the eggs ,they were going to him slightly that was awesome The Savage little Yoda
