    I think the Armorer didn’t intentionally have Bo Katan as a permanent member of the Children of the Watch but tested her to see if she was able to adapt and understand the perspective of different tribes within Mandalorian society which is important in uniting the tribes.

      @Draelyn ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Maybe not even a test so much as a right place right time thing. The Armorer knows very well who Bo Katan is, and her history. Maybe seeing how Bo Katan has grown as a person and as a mandalorian made the Armorer want to make the decision with Bo that she made. I do not feel like it was a pre-planned meditated anything(Of course if we break the 4th wall it was all planned but you know what I mean XD).

      She may of wanted her to live some time as a member to gain a better understanding of their culture and beliefs. It is clear she did gain some understanding of it as she does show them allot more respect than she had in the past season and previous episodes. I do not believe she says "This is the war" to anyone within the covert except on the ship in transit after leaving Mandalore in which only Din and Grogu are present.

    She had leadership pushed upon her, because nobody else was able to act in those situations, she stepped up and offered direction and got the job done each time. She isn’t the Bo-Katan of her time in Death Watch, because she was a kid with huge expectations placed upon her. She has let that go, and the Armourer has sent her to bring all the clans together.

      @@spectresound No, because Bo Katan wants to lead the mandalorians, that is why she sought the dark saber. Bo Katan acknowledged the Armorer as the leader of the group, and gave her the respect a member of their group would give their leader. What the Armorer did was accept Bo Katan for who she is, and now that Mandalorians have a staging ground, she wants Bo Katan to go bring the other clans back, and lead them to retake Mandalore. Nowhere did the Armorer want, or even demand that Bo Katan acknowledge her as her superior. I think the armorer was impressed with Bo Katan, knowing exactly who she is, and seeing that she has grown as not just a person, but as a Mandalorian, to perhaps become the leader Bo Katan was meant to be. Leader of the Mandalorians.

    I think the armorer had this plan all along. She's already proven to be very calculating. I think she got Bo to live as a child of the watch so that there's an understanding of the watch. So that Bo doesn't look at them the same way she did in season 2. I think she wants Bo to go out and find the other clans to bring them together not lead them. And since this whole season has been playing very closely to the Book of Exodus I think Bo is playing the role of Moses. She is going to lead her people to the promised land.

      Nothing about that exchange even hinted that she sees the armorer as her superior. She recognized her importance to her clan, and in mandalorian culture, so she understood that if anyone had the virtue and respect to allow someone to remove their helmet, it would be her. Superiority is not the same. Just as World leaders has advisers, the Armorers station is that of a spiritual and cultural adviser, not her superior.

She had a kinda triumphant look in her eyes. And besides, she didn't tell Din about the Mythosaur, only the Armorer. I get it that Bo most probably didn't believe it was real.

  • @Tekaneable
    @Tekaneable ปีที่แล้ว +380

    I strongly disagree that Din isn't a great leader. Sometimes I doubt that people actually watch the show. But to make it short. Din was able to form the most unlikely alliances to achieve common goal, because he earned the trust and loyalty, if Bo-Katan was a natural leader she wouldn't end up alone even without the Darksabre. She was banking way too much on the Darksabre and authority it gives and this is why she failed. She is experienced war-veteran, and she knows her tactics, but she cannot inspire loyalty (maybe now she could), we even saw in S2 finale, how she instigated fight with Boba Fett that escalated very quickly. Din made all people cooparate, and it was he who recruited Bo and Koska, not the other way around. And he was able to offer something they'd have interest in.
    So yes, I say Din Djarin will be the Mand'alor. And you'll find out soon enough.

    Navarro is now a home for Mandolorians because of Din.
    Bo Katan and the Armorers belief that the planet Mandolore was poison was ended because of Din.
    Bo Katan faith in Mandolorians and the creed was restored because of Din, this is after going into depression and losing all hope when her entire army abandoned her.
    Yes Bo Katan saw the Mythasuar, but that Mythasuar without a doubt saw Din fall to the bottom and saw Din going back up, it left once Din was going back up. Did not attack.
    Din has a full armor of Beskar, one of the few, he retrieved the dark saber.. he has made friends with all Mandolorians regardless of their differences.. and has acted in an honorable way to all... he alone through his actions has changed the opinions of what people think of mandolorians all over the outer rim.
    Regardless if he wants to be the leader, it has been thrusted on to him by the force, even Paz stands by him.

      The situation is very intriguing indeed.
      Bo Katan wants to be a leader and is from royal bloodline but still respects the authority of the Armourer. The Armourer sees Bo as the one that can get all Mandalorians back together as one people.
      Din Djarin renewed Bo’s faith and gave her a new start so he kind of saved her from the depths of despair. Din owes his life to Bo and backs her up in her quest. Bo respects Din and likes Grogu so it would be wonderful to see the trio work together in upcoming episodes.
      Din doesn’t want to lead but he wants the best for all Mandalorians. His main concern is the well-being and upbringing of Grogu. Din’s strength is that with his honesty and actions he creates an aura of trust around him and on the way gets friends from here and there. His connections and actions have brought a home for Mandalorians on Navarro and will clear the path to retake their home planet, the Mandalore. Quite an accomplishment.
      Bo Katan is the political leader,
      The Armourer is the spiritual leader,
      Din Djarin is the moral glue and the lubricating agent for the unification of the Mandalorians,
      Grogu with his increasing force abilities - is he the future of Mandalore?

    I don't agree with this take. Even without the villainous ominous music, just look at the visuals of the scene with the Armorer and Bo-Katan. This is NOT a triumph for good! It's like Palpatine manipulating Anakin, or Dooku disingenuously offering an alliance with Obi-Wan - supposedly for the sake of the galaxy.
    What the Armorer did is genius in terms of manipulation and asserting her cult leader dominance, but it's creepy and authoritarian - especially in contrast to the democratic style of decision making demonstrated earlier.
    We saw Din and Paz plead their case out in open debate, resulting in a group decision. And the result was good! They make a group decision to move from a deadly death planet to a new home surrounded by supportive outsiders (rather than deadly megafauna).
    But this is a threat to the relevance of the Armorer's leadership.
    So the Armorer asserts her cult dominance with classic cult/authoritarian methods. She orders Bo-Katan to transgress their most sacrosanct rule - not only asserting her absolute authority but also reducing Bo-Katan's status as entirely dependent upon the continued favor of the cult leader. She further asserts her leadership's dominance by reinforcing the cult's acceptance of this special exception. There is no open debate. There is no group decision. The Armorer unilaterally decides all, in private, and everyone else can either fall in line or get kicked out.
    It was a power play, and I think more than just a power play.
    If you still think this was some sort of triumph for good, rewatch the scene and pay attention to the music and visuals. They are telling us how we should be feeling about this.

    I think that they're gonna go full trope and make Bo the one who wants to lead, but ultimately isn't cut out for it, and Din is the one who doesn't want anything to do with leading, but he ends up being the best for the role. And I, for one, am very here for it. Especially after this last episode. It wasn't Bo who convinced them they must emerge from hiding to go help Navarro, it was Din (with Paz Vizla backing him up). He's the one who wields the Darksaber, he was the first Mandalorian to make the pilgrimage back to Mandalore and prove that it wasn't "cursed". Him still struggling with the Darksaber is just a reflection of his inner doubts, but I think for the rest of the season and going forward we're going to see Din thrust into leadership in one way or another, and watch him overcome those fears and self-doubt to become the leader the Mandalorians needed, rather than the one they expected.

  • @RatedRY
    @RatedRY ปีที่แล้ว +29

    To be clear, the armorer never said that Bo Katan would lead, only that she would unite them. Now, it's certainly implied she would I'll give you that, but since it wasn't explicitly stated I'm not totally convinced until either I get a bit more context, or until I see it happen. Personally though, I think Bo & Din will rule together. Here's how I see things playing out....
    I imagine Bo when she's trying to unite the clans will initially try and do so by telling them she saw the mythosaur, but no one will believe her, hell Din's own tribe almost turned him away and would have done so if he hadn't brought proof... she has none. Additionally, I think that unfortunately she's going to find out that a good majority of the other mandalorian's (besides the night owls) won't be willing to so easily forgive her for the past, and/or won't acknowledge her without the darksaber - and even if it came into her possession, I think it'll be a fool me once shame on you fool me twice... type of mentality she's up against. So, I think what she'll do is instead of trying to unite everyone behind her, is instead she'll manage to have them fall in behind Din. She can tell them how he beat Moff Gideon avenging the night of a thousand tears and reclaimed the darksaber, went back home to their planet and dispelled the myth of it being cursed and bathed in the waters, and is currently raising a foundling that will inherit the legacy of the one who created the darksaber.
    I think that is what will unite them, and just imagine Din's, um, "face" (body language) when she turns back up and tells him he's the new Mandalore haha... anyway, and if all that above isn't enough to bring her people together behind Mando, she can just tell them he's able to offer them lands on an independent planet and access to an Armorer. That last one in particular should do the trick. Din will clearly have no idea how to lead so I think he'll have Bo as his right hand, or he'll take her in hand which is a ship I'd love to see.

    If you don’t know, the Armorer served Darth Maul when he ruled madalor that’s why she’s the only one you see with horns on her helmet. Her motives are really unknown, she’s a mysterious one. For all we know she might be serving Moff Gideon

    I think. . . There might be a new way of leading the Mandalorians. Bo-Katan and the Armorer are going to be instrumental to that, but I do still believe Din will end up as the Mandalore, but rather than being the leader who has the military or religious answers, he'll sit as a sort of ideal Mandalorian. Simple, straight-forward, trusting in others, relying on himself, honoring loyalties and debts, and protecting the foundlings. His is still the only armor that's pure, unpainted beskar. He defeated Moff Gideon and claimed the Darksaber, who in turn defeated Bo-Katan and claimed it.
    I also think it won't be entirely clear until Din can finally clear his mind and prove that he truly is the Mandalore by wielding the Darksaber without feeling the weight of his distraction, which will probably be a really badass and satisfying moment as he strikes down his enemy-- likely Moff Gideon-- with the saber, also proving that he's no longer putting his faith in the Republic which already failed to bring justice to the Moff.

    Thank you for actually watching, listening, and paying attention to each episode. I've seen several breakdowns of this episode from very well established channels and wondered if the people even watched the episode or did they have on as background noise and claimed they "watched" it. I will say, the Armorer didn't ignore Bo when she mentioned she saw the Mythasaur, she merely didn't react. Bo has been paying attention when the Armorer speaks to and with her. The Armorer noticed and has realized there is a reason the Mythasaur showed itself to Bo. Since it did, Bo went from having giving up on her quest and swung full circle to refinding her faith. The Mandalorians' situation has improved. The Armorer has put 2 and 2 together, which is more than I can say for some "expert" content creators.

    I disagree. The armorer made it clear the mythasoar reappearing would mean a new age with new rules. If you know anything about Christianity the Bible is split into three ages with three different sets of rules for that age. I think we have something similar here. She isn't changing her beliefs just updating them due to the prophesized mytasoars return. Edit: Never mind. I hadn't watched the whole video yet when posting this. I see you agree.

  • @davedotson7364
    @davedotson7364 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    More accurate to say that Bo having seen the Mythosaur was some kind of miraculous event that caused the Armorer to reevaluate her views. This created a gut check moment where the Armorer could then reconcile that while Bo is more casual about the helmet she shares the core beliefs (expressed in successful battle leadership) that align to THE WAY. Ultimately the miracle of the Mythosaur led her to see their differences are not greater than the importance of a future for their people. I like your take too but I think it skimmed the surface of that character and there was more going on.

  • @AirbenderHawk

    Indeed, and the leadership experience to Bo isn't a new concept at all, she is ROYALTY, just like her sister before her. Even if they don't share ideals at the time during the raging clone war, her role as leader of all Mandalorians are obvious since episode 5.

    Din was defeated by spider insect creature. Din lost the dark saber. Bokatan picked up the dark saber and defeated the spider insect creature. Thus saving Dins life for the first time in that one episode. Bokatan then saved Din from drowning. She saw the Mithasaur. I think the dark saber is hers to wield in which it is easy for her to wield as Din cannot effectively use it almost like the dark saber doesn't want Din to use it.

Moff Gideon was different, it was a one on one duel for the life of the child. He defeated moff for grogu, the dark saber was a consolation prize. Din fell into an ambush. To properly claim it she’d have to challenge him like we’ve seen before

    I think Din is a great right hand man. Hes competent in his own right, and hes pretty darn knowledgeable. I think Bo is a good leader just because of her upbringing and her path in life so far have been filled with adversity. The kind a leader needs to go through before they become a leader. I think the armorer can see this and wished for a return of the Mandalorians. So using the opportunity created by Din to set up a staging ground, and Bo as a link to larger forces, the armorer has set in motion some pretty interesting things.

  • @gwinnondavis9284

    I actually think that's the reason Din has trouble with the Darksaber. He doesn't want to be Mandalore, he has leadership material, but he just doesn't want it. He wants to build a better future for his people, to see them united and strong, but I believe in the end he would prefer to be out adventuring with Grogu.
    I think if the series ends it will be with him, possibly by force, having Bo challenge him for the Darksaber, and her winning it in front of all the gathered Mandalorians. Then, with a better future secured for them all he and Grogu will fly off into the stars for another adventure.

    I think that the intentions and goals of the armorer remains to be seen. While she could very well be preparing Bo Katan for the role of leadership for all of Mandalor, she could be planning something else. 1) She could have come to understand that there can be different peoples of Mandalor. Those who have been born into or indoctrinated into a clan has just much right to call themselves a Mandalorian. 2) She understands that if Mandalorians do not rally together, they will die off. And Bo Katan having been raised on Mandalor stands a better chance of rallying the clans back to the planet. Especially better than a child of The Watch. But whether she leads them afterwards remains unclear.

    Bo was a founding member of Death Watch under Pre Visla. Has the Armorer taken this into account? She must have some sense of Bo's family history and her involvement with Darth Maul. Her allegiance to Mandalor was stronger than the ambition to seize control under Maul. Bo loves Mandalor, and the Armorer saw the proof in her willingness to follow The Way and risk her life for another simply because they were Mandalorian.

    Bo Katan has definitely proven herself. Not only did she lead the rescue for the foundling and overperform there by also bringing back the hatchlings that may become useful for the Mandalorians in the future but she led the attack against the pirates like she was born for it. She comes from Mandalorian royalty, is a born leader and now the Armourer believes her that she has seen the Mythosaur which must be a sign for someone who believes so much in their old customs and culture.
    I think that the tipping point is when Bo showed that she could also respect and even adopt the customs of others, which insures that if she were to unite and lead all the clans the Children of the Watch would be able to continue their goal of reestablishing the old religion of Mandalore.
    It also shows just how much of a tactician the Armourer is. A lot of the greatest Mandalorians aren't just good warriors but are very intelligent strategists as well. Whoever this Armourer is, I believe that she is a strong and capable leader for the watch. It's not that they are lacking a strong leader, but the Armourer believes in forging strong Mandalorians through trials which is why she sits back a lot of the time. She wants to forge other Mandalorians into the strongest warriors and leaders so she doesn't step up unless she has to.

      I think a lot of foreshadowing happened for the mythosaur was in season 1 pilot, when Din met the craftsman. When he was forced to learn to tame and ride a blurrgg, the craftsman used to stories of Mandalorians riding mythosaurs to inspire Din. Grogu used the force for beast taming as well in the next episode. It wouldn't be a stretch that Din and Grogu will ride the mythosaur on their own. Grogu is showing leadership skills as well by stopping clan fights. Whoever they choose to focus on.

    There is also the speech of the forges and how the forge is the heart of mandolorian culture. It also reveals things about oneself through trials and adversity.
    The armorer talks about how she saw the massive forge on Mandalor and how large/ornate it was. “The air rung with the sound of a thousand hammers”. But then she starts to talk about her own forge that the children of the watch used in the sewers -> small, simple, made of scrap parts. But both ultimately served the same purpose. To strengthen Mandolorians.
    She realized thanks to the feats of Bokatan and Din Djarin -> how their trials not only strengthened them individually but also strengthened each other -> that child of the watch or not, Mandolorians are stronger together and no matter the clan, must serve the same purpose -> taking back Mandalor for all mandalorians and defeating the empire.
    Bokatan not only walked both worlds but she saw a mythosaur (does not matter if it’s real or a vision, it is a sign) and already has past favor with scattered Mandolorians since she is technically a mandolorian princess. So she is the best choice to bring all the mandolorian tribes together.
