I have to wonder if Anakin would've fallen to the dark side so easily if he'd been trained by Plo Koon. I love Obi-Wan dearly but he should never have been Anakin's Master; Anakin needed a dad, not an overcritical big brother.
That responsibility was a lot on obi wan he was just nearing the end of his pawdawan phase when he took anakin as a apprentice and the chosen one no less obi wasn’t ready for that one not even a little that’s why they had a brother like relationship with qui gon being both of their father figure

Master Kloon's character reminds me of Gandalf in many ways. His kindness, his strong sense of justice and compassion, his tendency to follow his own path instead of those over him, and his love for those around him. Even his voice is reminiscent of the grey wizard. Plo Kloon is truly a space Gandalf
We're just clones sir,we're meant to be expendible. Not to me. He was so epic he had the most loyal clone leigon and a yellow lightsaber.There was not a clone who didnt respect him. He is similar to yoda in that 1st episode in how he views clones
@@CommanderBohn Yeah, he had one in an obscure Star Wars game about lightsaber combat (it's also the same game where Mace Windu didn't even have a purple lightsaber at all); forgot the game's name though.
I always thought Plo Koon and Qui Gon Jin were good friends, since they both share some similarities with how they treat everyone with respect, their intelligence, as well as their connections and maybe their beliefs with with the force.
They were when Plos Master said happily they wanted him (Plo) as a new member in the jedi order (I mean he would have got his seat) He said that he thinks his friend Qui Gon is a better choice
Anakin skywalker even looked up to Plo koon during the start of the clonewars. He was a form 5 practitioner of djem so light saber combat. That produces strength and dominance of ones opponent something anakin skywalker respects.
@@oaooo8691 I wonder if Plo-Koon could have defeated Dooku, considering how Anakin was able to exploit Form II's vulnerabilities with his execution of Form V (Though, it's debatable whether Anakin could have won without tapping into the Dark Side)? Not to mention, Plo-Koon's Electric Judgment could potentially counter Dooku's Sith Lightning. Of course, Dooku was more experienced but experience doesn't always win out. Both he and Plo-Koon were among the Jedi's best.
@@Justmyhandle I think that one woul be a fight where luck decides. Before Dookus fall they were good friends and the know each others style. Plo Koon can use force speed and has all those Baran Do abilities while Dooku is slightly more powerful and skilled. Then again Plo Koon mastered both variants of form V and nearly mastered form IV and he was the only one to ever defeat Yoda. I think that Dooku would win 5,5/10 or 6/10 times because he uses the dark side and is more powerful.
@@oaooo8691 Plo-Koon defeated Yoda? Wow, what a sparring match that must have been. Is there any indication that Yoda was holding back though, by chance? Obviously, the effort of a Jedi Master engaging a comrade in a formal duel is different from a Jedi fighting to kill as if his opponent were a mortal enemy (Ex- Yoda vs. Palpatine).
@@Justmyhandle Plo Koon just had a few advantages: Yoda is far more skilled, fast and powerful but Plo Koon was not only a master of form V but also of Yodas form IV Ataru and so he knew much about it. In addition to that Plo Koon is the only Jedi besides Yoda who was able to implement force speed in active combat and his master Tyvokka was the one Jedi even Mace Windu thought would be able to defeat Yoda, so Plo Koon had the perfect teacher for this fight and Plo Koon was probably the only Jedi even calmer than Yoda. Also I guess Yoda didn't use his own force speed to full degree since not even Sidious was fast enough to compete with him when he used it to full degree
There's also wolves. Can't argue his love of wolves. I prefer space scenes, air/space combat, gunplay, magic vs. tech vs. "Muggle" themes, and special forces/commandos, though.
I especially loved seeing their gunship with plo koons face painted on along with helmets of his clone troopers by that alone you can tell how close they were and how compassionate plo was to his soldiers
@@acedelta12 Funny thing is, they did call themselves that, sorta. The design painted onto their gunships mentioned by the OP here is “Plo’s Bro’s” in the standard galactic alphabet :DD
May be in the minority but *I actually liked Ahsoka in the clone wars movie.* Yeah She may be annoying, but let’s be honest, Luke and Anakin also started off pretty irritating, but like Ahsoka they developed great qualities throughout the long running stories. Ahsoka primarily just started off having qualities fans didn’t like such as Ignorance, arrogance, and overall just a snippy attitude. Its no secret that over the Course of The Clone Wars those qualities gradually faded away, because she matured as a person and became the badass we know and love that survived many tragic conflicts.
@@Fi_Sci_ I think her being arrogant and snippy works because in-universe the council assigned her to Anakin so he'd basically have a mini version of himself to teach, therefore learning how to reign in some of his more problematic tendencies.
Clones who had Plo Koon as their OIC for their unit definitely were in good hands unlike other units who just get treated like Imperial Guard in 40K lol
What about the 501st under Anakin? He cared for his troopers as if they were family to him. And they cared deeply for him back. They respect each other and watch one another’s backs in battle. Don’t forget
@@IcyFemboi true but think about the amount of troops whether it be platoon-level or company-level sustaining mass cal. Granted, yea they're mad gung-ho af and full send it and adaptable but being tactically-sound. Not so really. That's where Obi-wan and Cody come into play "at times". Remember, Kenobi had plenty of doubts of Anakin's decision-making process. Not to bash on 501st, they have their ups but also have their downs just like any other unit.
I find Plo-Koon to be a very fascinating character "design wise". Just looking at his face you'd think he was a sith lord. Metal goggles, a "gasmask like" apparatus on his insectoid face, and a constant look of anger or hatred. and i think that it is awesome that he is the exact opposite. A humble, virtuous, guardian, who would give his own life "without hesitation" for the sake of a few clone troopers. Because to him, no one is disposable. He is everything the light side should be!
Pretty much everyone knew Plo was Dave Filoni’s favorite Jedi, so using his favorite character as a cover was a bold move, but one that proved to be successful. I do hope Plo Koon is still alive though, his character offered so much in the clone wars that not expanding on him further would be a wasted opportunity.
I feel like Plo got one of the worst deaths, at least Ayla's squad tried to end her quickly, but Plo had his wingmen randomly shoot at him out of nowhere, and during those few seconds, I can't imagine what thoughts ran through his head, especially considering he cared deeply for his clones, I wonder how Wolffe felt about the whole ordeal, here's hoping the Bad Batch series will give us an answer.
@@ARC--Fives I've heard about some interviews saying that Dave Filloni originally intended for there to be more clone deserters in Rebels (12 IIRC) but they ended up cutting it down to 3, there are very likely more of them out there, I like to think that the Bad Batch will save a few clones from subjugation by removing their chips.
Honestly, hearing that Plo-Koon's people and planet managed to survive the rise of the Empire was a welcome surprise. With their society so close to the light side of the force, I was expecting more and more as the video went on to hear that it had been wiped out in the end or that some other tragedy had befallen it.
I think with their planet being hard to reach and extremely hazardous, and also Sidious realising they wouldn't be a threat to his empire, they probably decided not to waste any resources on them.
Plo Koon has always been my favorite Jedi. I genuinely teared up when he died in Order 66. Also, the Kel Dor is one of my favorite species in Star Wars. They’re just so cool all around.
Plo Koon has two great quotes from a graphic novel called "In service of the Republic" that show his wisdom and compassion. He, Kit Fisto, and a spec ops squad of clones have just found a village that has been destroyed by a storm caused by a Separatist weather control device. Plo and Kit, along with a native soldier who was guiding them, proceed to bury the bodies, and Plo says "Every battleground takes its toll in lives. But none so tragic as those of the innocent." Immediately after he says this, the captain in charge of the spec ops squad asks what difference burying the bodies makes. Plo and Kit then have a conversation about how the clones do not have the experience, and as such the patience, as they do. The captain cuts in, saying that the Separatists will do whatever it takes to win, and asks what the Republic will do. Plo Koon replies with one of the best lines in Star Wars history: "We are at a disadvantage, Captain, because we will not abandon our ideals to win. If we became the enemy in our hearts and minds, then our victory would be for nothing."
Something I notice nobody talks about in this video is that Plo Koon was friends with Qui-Gon Jinn. Perhaps they were friends because they shared similar views on things. Something I also notice legends did not do is show the friendship and adventures Qui-gon and Plo Koon went on together. I hope cannon dose that as well as explore more of the Jedi like Seasee Tiin, Oppo Rancisis, and many more Jedi.
IMO, and this is probably super unpopular, I see them both being less “army leaders” and more an embodiment of preserving life and peace as Jedi. I think qui gon would have objected to leading an army, personally. He seemed more contemplative and nuanced.
They killed off so many jedi man... just to have Rey and Kylo lightsaber fight mediocrely Edit: ok ik it didn't directly lead to those movies but still
Man I would absolutely love a Pre - Phantom Menace set show involving the Jedi Masters like Plo, Luminara, Qui-Gon, etc... all in the lead roles. Would be pretty sick
Plo Koon has been my favorite Jedi ever since playing Jedi Power Battles on PS1. As a kid I just liked how he had a yellow lightsaber but after learning more about him just really liked his character and traits and such
SAME!! I loved his look and yellow/orange light saber. Then I went to the Star Wars website and read ad much as I could. His master was a Wookiee Jedi. How awesome is that??
I felt that Plo Koon was the only other Jedi aside from Obi-Wan and Anakin that felt Ahsoka was treated unfairly during the Trial. What proves this is that he was the only member of the council to actually acknowledge their failure in wrongfully expelling her. Whereas Windu dismissed it as the force working in mysterious ways. Still breaks my heart knowing that Ahsoka would’ve stayed if Windu had not refused too accept the fact that the council was wrong. Would’ve been great if Plo had survived Order 66, he truly was a remarkable example of a Jedi who genuinely did care, while also not letting his emotions dominate rational thought.
@@def3ndr887 if there was a vote, then one of the masters must have been a tie breaker. Because Mace, Ki-Adi, and Tin clearly voted against her. Whereas Yoda, Plo, and Obi-Wan were against it. Which results in Yoda’s statement that the council are not in total agreement but expel Ahsoka regardless of those who were against her being expelled.
@@def3ndr887 your welcome 👍🏻 it was difficult to watch, but at least Plo Koon made the effort to apologize alongside Anakin for the councils wrongdoings. Plo Koon truly was the best of the order. I wish he had survived the purge, or at least had one last moment with little ‘Soka.
I'm thinking about the fact that filoni's Favorite-jedi Is plokoon and his body never been Found after order66... I deeply deeply hope we'll get a plo-koon Cameo in ashoka or mandalorian
The sense of justice and piloting skills of Anakin, the level headedness of Obi-wan, the skill at arms of Mace Windu, and the humility and compassion of Yoda. Dude really did embody the best of the old Jedi Order
They got me hooked in clone wars in that episode. How he shows compassion to the clones and it even changes the way they view themselves. I know the clones spread word throughout the ranks like fire so it must have inspired thousands of them hearing they weren't expendable to everyone . ❤
Plo Koon, Qui Gon, pre dark side Dooku, Luke, OT Yoda, OT Obi Wan and Ahsoka are the perfect representations how a Jedi should be. They are flawed but who isn’t they are all compassionate and overcame their dark side except Dooku he was sadly tricked and lost his old self
And dooku even as a sith was mainly out for peace. He was a great politician and kinda used/viewed the dark side as necesary since the jedi failed in his eyes. Dooku is one version of these good jedi that stepped over the line to do good
I’ve l ways loved Plo, he’s my favorite for a number of reasons but mainly for his compassion and understanding nature, he never shunned emotion like most dogmatic Jedi and was forgiving rather than the zealously of the order. He understood the Clones, gave some faith in Ahsoka during the bomb-plot where she was accused and shunned by most of the order, he gave his advice to Anakin and was nearly as much a mentor to him as Obi-Wan. Plo was the best!
ive always loved plo koon his look and swagger and unswayed clutch on the light side and the fact he treated his troopers like his a-team valued their lives like another jedi
Besides the main 4 council members of the movies (Anakin,Obi,Mace and Yoda) Plo and Kit are my favorite personalities in the order. I also think it's quite interesting to learn how different species cultures interacted with the various force wielding groups in the galaxy
Poor people don't like Plo Koon because of his unique look but it honestly is humbling to overcome that adversity and still reign as a renown character ♡
Hero and highest commander of the republic in both the stark hyperspace war and the Yinchorri uprising. The only Jedi to be considered Anakins equal in pure skill with form V. The only known duellist to ever defeat yoda. One of the only beings who mastered force speed. Probably physically the 4th most imposing Jedi of his time (after Pong Krell, K'kruhk and Master Judd). The most experienced battlefield commander and warrior of the order. The pioneer of electric judgement and the reason Luke later learned this ability. A master of all Baran Do abilities including creating storms, electro-magnetic fields and creating ice/water/fog. Capable of collapsing small mountains with a motion of his hand and easily defeating Assaj Ventress (who sometimes fought both Anakin or Obi-Wan nearly equally) despite being hindered by a broken arm. Used force speed to destroy hundreds of droids and some tanks so quickly that a clone could only utter 3 words. Was probably the wisest and calmest jedi together with yoda and Terra Sinube.
He would probably have been the best option for Grand Master if the Order had gone on normally and if Yoda stepped down. Windu was very powerful yes, but he always seemed too, aggressive for a Jedi. Both in how he fought and the personality he showed. It was not some grand, worrying aggression but a subtle one that would make me worry if he was to be the guide, so to speak, of the entire Order. Mundi was wise in his own right, but was also too cold as a Jedi, taking the whole "emotional detachment" a bit too far, to the point where his regard for life with certain things felt strange and the again, subtle arrogant underlying ego was worrying. Shaak Ti, Aayla, and Lunimara seemed more like true light side Jedi like Plo Koon.
But Luminara suffered from that detachment too, like in the second Geonosis battle when Ahsoka and Barriss got buried, she was just ready to let them both die
Plo is the shining example of what the jedi should have been when they fell, compassionate, kind, wise, powerful. He beat even grand master yoda and could use force judgement, plo has always been my favorite behind Count Dooku
Fun fact: Plo Koon was able to defeat Yoda, so that makes him not only the wisest, but also one of the greatest if not, the greatest and most powerful Jedi
I love how the clones in the beginning assume that no one is coming because they're expandable. Well yeah, but there's a jedi with you. And he is not expandable.
Yknow it's kind of odd the clone troopers stuck in that wreckage with Plo Koon didn't expect someone to come find them, being right next to one of their most valued generals in the exact same situation they are.
I always thought he looked cool in the movies, but MAN the comics and Clone Wars made me love him. He’s actually my favorite Jedi that wasn’t in the originals.
Probably one of the few jedi that would actually have been a major threat to Vader and Palps if he survived order 66. One zap of his force lightning and Vader is done
Actually electric judgement wasn't strong enough for that but Plo Koon was Anakins equal in skill during early ep.3 but wiser, more experienced, calmer and with a wider variety, though slightly less powerfull. He would probably fight cyborg Vader (during Vaders prime) equally. Maybe even defeat him (force speed)
I would have loved to have seen the tale of how Master Plo found and brought Ahsoka to the Jedi. There was either a scrapped episode or a script regarding that about how that happened and it was fascinating to find out about. It would have made a better episode then some of the fillers.
In the clone wars he was one of my favorites. Ashoka loved him about as much as she loved Ankin. He was her father figure while Ankin was her brother and they both helped make her the Warrior she is.
Yeah, Plo Koon really cared for his soldiers, and it makes his death all the sadder. Plo Koon might have been able to sense his death, but because he loved his soldiers so much, maybe he thought it was impossible.
It would have been cool if Plo Koon had survived, his skills and dedication to the Force would have been invaluable for an underground movement of Jedi.
Mad props to Plo Koon for being the ONLY member of the Jedi Council to apologize to Ashoka after they threw her under the bus when she was framed.

I have to wonder if Anakin would've fallen to the dark side so easily if he'd been trained by Plo Koon. I love Obi-Wan dearly but he should never have been Anakin's Master; Anakin needed a dad, not an overcritical big brother.
If qui gon didn’t die he would’ve been the one to train him
While this is all true, Obi Wan did try his best even if flawed.
I don't think he'd turn to the dark side in general
From his interactions with Ashoka, yeah I think this is definitely true
That responsibility was a lot on obi wan he was just nearing the end of his pawdawan phase when he took anakin as a apprentice and the chosen one no less obi wasn’t ready for that one not even a little that’s why they had a brother like relationship with qui gon being both of their father figure
He cared so deeply for people. I think he loved everyone and seen redemption in all. Truly the greatest Jedi in the clone wars and just a really caring guy.
Shout out Master Plo, RIP. After TCW's, his death scene in ROTS hit different, he was the most solid and underrated imo.
Could have been worse. The deleted scene version of his death was just too much to bear.
@@michaelandreipalon359 what was it
@@STEELEAGLES2019 Instead of crashing with his fighter, he ejected, but got shot to hell by the pursuing ARC-170s.
Not an honorable and glorious death, I admit.
@@michaelandreipalon359 I feel like they should have kept these darker scenes in the movie, the whole point of Revenge of the Sith was being dark…so why tf would you pull your punches lol
@@jaydenshepard7928 I think it still stood by the point with Lucas intending Star Wars mostly for kids as much as possible.
Master Kloon's character reminds me of Gandalf in many ways. His kindness, his strong sense of justice and compassion, his tendency to follow his own path instead of those over him, and his love for those around him. Even his voice is reminiscent of the grey wizard.
Plo Kloon is truly a space Gandalf
"Koon".
He does have that aura of a wise old greymane.
Holy crap you’re right.
I think Henry Gilroy said the same thing in one of the season 1 episode featurettes.
Gandalf was even a member of a Council that was led astray and deceived by Saruman
I wonder what would have happened if kloon trained anakin and ahsoka.
We're just clones sir,we're meant to be expendible.
Not to me.
He was so epic he had the most loyal clone leigon and a yellow lightsaber.There was not a clone who didnt respect him.
He is similar to yoda in that 1st episode in how he views clones
Didn't he have originally an orange lightsaber?
@@CommanderBohn Yeah, he had one in an obscure Star Wars game about lightsaber combat (it's also the same game where Mace Windu didn't even have a purple lightsaber at all); forgot the game's name though.
Maybe it was orange my b
Weren't his clones so loyal that at first they didn't kill him after order 66?
No the clonr pilot shot him down straight away.But if it had been the wolf pack on the ground with wolffe we may have had a s7 rex like scene
I always thought Plo Koon and Qui Gon Jin were good friends, since they both share some similarities with how they treat everyone with respect, their intelligence, as well as their connections and maybe their beliefs with with the force.
They were when Plos Master said happily they wanted him (Plo) as a new member in the jedi order (I mean he would have got his seat) He said that he thinks his friend Qui Gon is a better choice
Plo-Koon was unironically a hero of mine growing up. Kind of crazy when a fictional character is so good you look up to him in real life
Tangentially related, but Slave Knight Gael (Dark Souls III) and X (Mega Man series) also fill the same role for me.
Still hurts. He was mi favourite jedi :(
Same
Not Ima-Gun Di?
Same
Not even Coleman Trebor or Pong Krell!?

Anakin skywalker even looked up to Plo koon during the start of the clonewars. He was a form 5 practitioner of djem so light saber combat. That produces strength and dominance of ones opponent something anakin skywalker respects.
Yeah. Plo Koon was actually the only one Anakin regarded as his equal in this Form even later on
@@oaooo8691 I wonder if Plo-Koon could have defeated Dooku, considering how Anakin was able to exploit Form II's vulnerabilities with his execution of Form V (Though, it's debatable whether Anakin could have won without tapping into the Dark Side)? Not to mention, Plo-Koon's Electric Judgment could potentially counter Dooku's Sith Lightning. Of course, Dooku was more experienced but experience doesn't always win out. Both he and Plo-Koon were among the Jedi's best.
@@Justmyhandle I think that one woul be a fight where luck decides. Before Dookus fall they were good friends and the know each others style. Plo Koon can use force speed and has all those Baran Do abilities while Dooku is slightly more powerful and skilled. Then again Plo Koon mastered both variants of form V and nearly mastered form IV and he was the only one to ever defeat Yoda. I think that Dooku would win 5,5/10 or 6/10 times because he uses the dark side and is more powerful.
@@oaooo8691 Plo-Koon defeated Yoda? Wow, what a sparring match that must have been. Is there any indication that Yoda was holding back though, by chance? Obviously, the effort of a Jedi Master engaging a comrade in a formal duel is different from a Jedi fighting to kill as if his opponent were a mortal enemy (Ex- Yoda vs. Palpatine).
@@Justmyhandle Plo Koon just had a few advantages: Yoda is far more skilled, fast and powerful but Plo Koon was not only a master of form V but also of Yodas form IV Ataru and so he knew much about it. In addition to that Plo Koon is the only Jedi besides Yoda who was able to implement force speed in active combat and his master Tyvokka was the one Jedi even Mace Windu thought would be able to defeat Yoda, so Plo Koon had the perfect teacher for this fight and Plo Koon was probably the only Jedi even calmer than Yoda. Also I guess Yoda didn't use his own force speed to full degree since not even Sidious was fast enough to compete with him when he used it to full degree
When filoni says master plo is his favourite Jedi then you know he’s *legit*
There's also wolves. Can't argue his love of wolves.
I prefer space scenes, air/space combat, gunplay, magic vs. tech vs. "Muggle" themes, and special forces/commandos, though.
I especially loved seeing their gunship with plo koons face painted on along with helmets of his clone troopers by that alone you can tell how close they were and how compassionate plo was to his soldiers
Plo's Bros :D
@@Kyekeiko How does this sound stupid and realistic at the same time
@@acedelta12 I mean, it was a real thing however stupid it sounds so idk? *shrugs*
@@Kyekeiko I meant specifically with the "Plo's Bros", it sounds stupid but also sounds like something they'd actually call themselves
@@acedelta12 Funny thing is, they did call themselves that, sorta. The design painted onto their gunships mentioned by the OP here is “Plo’s Bro’s” in the standard galactic alphabet :DD
Plo koon was just a incredibly developed character with so many layers to his personality which I love
0:38 can we take a moment to appreciate how formal Baby Ahsoka is standing considering she’s a baby
She looks more like a toddler.
She was always cool. Except for in The Clone Wars movie.
May be in the minority but *I actually liked Ahsoka in the clone wars movie.*
Yeah She may be annoying, but let’s be honest, Luke and Anakin also started off pretty irritating, but like Ahsoka they developed great qualities throughout the long running stories. Ahsoka primarily just started off having qualities fans didn’t like such as Ignorance, arrogance, and overall just a snippy attitude. Its no secret that over the Course of The Clone Wars those qualities gradually faded away, because she matured as a person and became the badass we know and love that survived many tragic conflicts.
@@Fi_Sci_ I think her being arrogant and snippy works because in-universe the council assigned her to Anakin so he'd basically have a mini version of himself to teach, therefore learning how to reign in some of his more problematic tendencies.
@@austinhinton3944 it’s a shame Anakin never applied his own lessons he taught Ahsoka too himself. Such as putting purpose before feelings.
am I the only one who feels like I’m hearing the voice of God whenever I hear Master Plo speak in CW?
I think you may be one of ten people judging from the amount of likes
Clones who had Plo Koon as their OIC for their unit definitely were in good hands unlike other units who just get treated like Imperial Guard in 40K lol
What about the 501st under Anakin? He cared for his troopers as if they were family to him. And they cared deeply for him back. They respect each other and watch one another’s backs in battle. Don’t forget
@@IcyFemboi true but think about the amount of troops whether it be platoon-level or company-level sustaining mass cal. Granted, yea they're mad gung-ho af and full send it and adaptable but being tactically-sound. Not so really.
That's where Obi-wan and Cody come into play "at times". Remember, Kenobi had plenty of doubts of Anakin's decision-making process. Not to bash on 501st, they have their ups but also have their downs just like any other unit.
@@ravenks1sr15 oh, I see
The 327th and 212th were treated pretty well. I don’t see them treated like guard.
Pong Krell would be laughing his ass off at this reference to clones being treated like Imperial Guardsmen.
I have mentioned on multiple occasions, that if I were a padawan, I would've hoped to have either Qui-gon (Rip),or Plo Koon as my master
Also Kit Fisto
I find Plo-Koon to be a very fascinating character "design wise". Just looking at his face you'd think he was a sith lord. Metal goggles, a "gasmask like" apparatus on his insectoid face, and a constant look of anger or hatred. and i think that it is awesome that he is the exact opposite. A humble, virtuous, guardian, who would give his own life "without hesitation" for the sake of a few clone troopers. Because to him, no one is disposable. He is everything the light side should be!
It’s too bad he didn’t return in season 2 of Mando like was the original plan. Hopefully he’s secretly still alive and will return
That wasn’t the original plan, It was only said that Plo would appear to keep Luke arriving a surprise.
Pretty much everyone knew Plo was Dave Filoni’s favorite Jedi, so using his favorite character as a cover was a bold move, but one that proved to be successful.
I do hope Plo Koon is still alive though, his character offered so much in the clone wars that not expanding on him further would be a wasted opportunity.
They could put a Canon/Alt-universe version of Plo Koon's niece into the storyline.
He is alive in the canon I have in my head
He is alive if you rewatch the scene when he was shot down he ejected before he crashed.
Always has been my favourite jedi

I feel like Plo got one of the worst deaths, at least Ayla's squad tried to end her quickly, but Plo had his wingmen randomly shoot at him out of nowhere, and during those few seconds, I can't imagine what thoughts ran through his head, especially considering he cared deeply for his clones, I wonder how Wolffe felt about the whole ordeal, here's hoping the Bad Batch series will give us an answer.
Afaik Wolffe wasn't with him when Order 66 happened
@@ksamuel9 I'm aware of that, I'm just talking about after the fact, when Wolffe got his chip removed.
I hope Bad Batch has more clones who disobeyed Order 66 and had their chips removed. I refuse to believe there were only three of them.
@@ARC--Fives I've heard about some interviews saying that Dave Filloni originally intended for there to be more clone deserters in Rebels (12 IIRC) but they ended up cutting it down to 3, there are very likely more of them out there, I like to think that the Bad Batch will save a few clones from subjugation by removing their chips.
@@ericjp2000 I hope so
Honestly, hearing that Plo-Koon's people and planet managed to survive the rise of the Empire was a welcome surprise. With their society so close to the light side of the force, I was expecting more and more as the video went on to hear that it had been wiped out in the end or that some other tragedy had befallen it.
I think with their planet being hard to reach and extremely hazardous, and also Sidious realising they wouldn't be a threat to his empire, they probably decided not to waste any resources on them.
@@sandroskronias That didn't stop the Empire from committing billions of other atrocities across its 20 year existence.
In case you need a remainder that the Empire are Space Nazi's, look up the Gulmarid.
Plo Koon has always been my favorite Jedi. I genuinely teared up when he died in Order 66. Also, the Kel Dor is one of my favorite species in Star Wars. They’re just so cool all around.
I 100% agree

**hol up**💀
ever since the clone wars Plo Koon quickly became one of my favorite jedi. He really embodies what a jedi should truly be.
Plo-Koom has always been my favorite jedi and when he was in the clone wars it just made me like him even more. Best jedi ever
Plo Koon has two great quotes from a graphic novel called "In service of the Republic" that show his wisdom and compassion. He, Kit Fisto, and a spec ops squad of clones have just found a village that has been destroyed by a storm caused by a Separatist weather control device. Plo and Kit, along with a native soldier who was guiding them, proceed to bury the bodies, and Plo says "Every battleground takes its toll in lives. But none so tragic as those of the innocent." Immediately after he says this, the captain in charge of the spec ops squad asks what difference burying the bodies makes. Plo and Kit then have a conversation about how the clones do not have the experience, and as such the patience, as they do. The captain cuts in, saying that the Separatists will do whatever it takes to win, and asks what the Republic will do. Plo Koon replies with one of the best lines in Star Wars history: "We are at a disadvantage, Captain, because we will not abandon our ideals to win. If we became the enemy in our hearts and minds, then our victory would be for nothing."
Something I notice nobody talks about in this video is that Plo Koon was friends with Qui-Gon Jinn. Perhaps they were friends because they shared similar views on things. Something I also notice legends did not do is show the friendship and adventures Qui-gon and Plo Koon went on together. I hope cannon dose that as well as explore more of the Jedi like Seasee Tiin, Oppo Rancisis, and many more Jedi.
That’s what I was thinking if more Jedi were thinking like qui gon and plo koon then maybe more Jedi would’ve stopped order 66.
IMO, and this is probably super unpopular, I see them both being less “army leaders” and more an embodiment of preserving life and peace as Jedi. I think qui gon would have objected to leading an army, personally. He seemed more contemplative and nuanced.
They killed off so many jedi man... just to have Rey and Kylo lightsaber fight mediocrely

I felt that Plo Koon was the only other Jedi aside from Obi-Wan and Anakin that felt Ahsoka was treated unfairly during the Trial.
What proves this is that he was the only member of the council to actually acknowledge their failure in wrongfully expelling her.
Whereas Windu dismissed it as the force working in mysterious ways. Still breaks my heart knowing that Ahsoka would’ve stayed if Windu had not refused too accept the fact that the council was wrong.
Would’ve been great if Plo had survived Order 66, he truly was a remarkable example of a Jedi who genuinely did care, while also not letting his emotions dominate rational thought.
Didn't Plo koon along with Obi wan and Yoda vote against kicking her out of the order?
@@def3ndr887 if there was a vote, then one of the masters must have been a tie breaker.
Because Mace, Ki-Adi, and Tin clearly voted against her. Whereas Yoda, Plo, and Obi-Wan were against it.
Which results in Yoda’s statement that the council are not in total agreement but expel Ahsoka regardless of those who were against her being expelled.
@@Fi_Sci_ thanks for the clarification, it was hard to see Plo Koon, Obi wan, and Yoda turning on her
@@def3ndr887 your welcome 👍🏻
it was difficult to watch, but at least Plo Koon made the effort to apologize alongside Anakin for the councils wrongdoings. Plo Koon truly was the best of the order. I wish he had survived the purge, or at least had one last moment with little ‘Soka.
@@Fi_Sci_ To be fair, we did see him eject from his fighter before it crashed, so there is some hope.

As a lover of the Wolfpack, I already loved Plo Koon, now I love him even more. Thank you!
Plo Koon is the only Order 66 death (in RotS) that still makes me sad 😭

The sense of justice and piloting skills of Anakin, the level headedness of Obi-wan, the skill at arms of Mace Windu, and the humility and compassion of Yoda. Dude really did embody the best of the old Jedi Order
yoda didn't have much humility
They got me hooked in clone wars in that episode. How he shows compassion to the clones and it even changes the way they view themselves. I know the clones spread word throughout the ranks like fire so it must have inspired thousands of them hearing they weren't expendable to everyone . ❤
Compassion can lead to greatness. Something that is sorely lacking in society as a whole. It's because of this that plo koon is my favorite jedi.
Agree 100% man
Plo Koon, Qui Gon, pre dark side Dooku, Luke, OT Yoda, OT Obi Wan and Ahsoka are the perfect representations how a Jedi should be. They are flawed but who isn’t they are all compassionate and overcame their dark side except Dooku he was sadly tricked and lost his old self

I honestly don't see a flaw in Plo.

I’ve l ways loved Plo, he’s my favorite for a number of reasons but mainly for his compassion and understanding nature, he never shunned emotion like most dogmatic Jedi and was forgiving rather than the zealously of the order.
He understood the Clones, gave some faith in Ahsoka during the bomb-plot where she was accused and shunned by most of the order, he gave his advice to Anakin and was nearly as much a mentor to him as Obi-Wan.
Plo was the best!
I like to imagine one day Plo-Koon just texted Skywalker and was like "ayo fam I got the artefacts" and he was like "legend"
ive always loved plo koon his look and swagger and unswayed clutch on the light side and the fact he treated his troopers like his a-team valued their lives like another jedi
Besides the main 4 council members of the movies (Anakin,Obi,Mace and Yoda) Plo and Kit are my favorite personalities in the order. I also think it's quite interesting to learn how different species cultures interacted with the various force wielding groups in the galaxy
I also really love Plo Koon and Kit Fisto
They're just serious badasses
If I remember correctly, Plo and Kit were also best buds

Poor people don't like Plo Koon because of his unique look but it honestly is humbling to overcome that adversity and still reign as a renown character ♡
Never showing him as much an individual character as a force to be reckoned with was a very big positive.
The man appreciated life because he always had a few thin layers of metal and technology separating him from a horribly painful death
Plo Koon is easily my favorite Jedi, even before I saw his great episodes, I just LOVE his design, him being a pure boi helped a LOT with that.
Hero and highest commander of the republic in both the stark hyperspace war and the Yinchorri uprising. The only Jedi to be considered Anakins equal in pure skill with form V. The only known duellist to ever defeat yoda. One of the only beings who mastered force speed. Probably physically the 4th most imposing Jedi of his time (after Pong Krell, K'kruhk and Master Judd). The most experienced battlefield commander and warrior of the order. The pioneer of electric judgement and the reason Luke later learned this ability. A master of all Baran Do abilities including creating storms, electro-magnetic fields and creating ice/water/fog. Capable of collapsing small mountains with a motion of his hand and easily defeating Assaj Ventress (who sometimes fought both Anakin or Obi-Wan nearly equally) despite being hindered by a broken arm. Used force speed to destroy hundreds of droids and some tanks so quickly that a clone could only utter 3 words. Was probably the wisest and calmest jedi together with yoda and Terra Sinube.
Wow givin us tears right away
Weeping through those little eye-holes.
My favorite Plo quot "We can do this the easy way, or the difficult way. The choice is yours." The delivery and the voice just hit the mark.
He would probably have been the best option for Grand Master if the Order had gone on normally and if Yoda stepped down.
Windu was very powerful yes, but he always seemed too, aggressive for a Jedi. Both in how he fought and the personality he showed. It was not some grand, worrying aggression but a subtle one that would make me worry if he was to be the guide, so to speak, of the entire Order. Mundi was wise in his own right, but was also too cold as a Jedi, taking the whole "emotional detachment" a bit too far, to the point where his regard for life with certain things felt strange and the again, subtle arrogant underlying ego was worrying.
Shaak Ti, Aayla, and Lunimara seemed more like true light side Jedi like Plo Koon.
Knowing the council, they probably would’ve gone for Windu, the stupid bastards

There were many reasons why Plo-Koon was my #1 Jedi from Star Wars (Yoda an close second) and this video just made him even more awesome.
Plo is the shining example of what the jedi should have been when they fell, compassionate, kind, wise, powerful. He beat even grand master yoda and could use force judgement, plo has always been my favorite behind Count Dooku
The guy is the most paladin member from the most paladin species who works as a literal space paladin.

I love how the clones in the beginning assume that no one is coming because they're expandable. Well yeah, but there's a jedi with you. And he is not expandable.
I really wish they had Ahsoka say something like, “Even if he didn’t survive, I know he would not want us to leave his men to die.”
The clones aren’t expendable. Not to us
Yknow it's kind of odd the clone troopers stuck in that wreckage with Plo Koon didn't expect someone to come find them, being right next to one of their most valued generals in the exact same situation they are.
I always thought he looked cool in the movies, but MAN the comics and Clone Wars made me love him. He’s actually my favorite Jedi that wasn’t in the originals.
Probably one of the few jedi that would actually have been a major threat to Vader and Palps if he survived order 66. One zap of his force lightning and Vader is done
Actually electric judgement wasn't strong enough for that but Plo Koon was Anakins equal in skill during early ep.3 but wiser, more experienced, calmer and with a wider variety, though slightly less powerfull. He would probably fight cyborg Vader (during Vaders prime) equally. Maybe even defeat him (force speed)
He’s powerful, but Vader would still win with the fight perhaps being his second hardest ever only behind when fought Obi Wan on Mustafar
@@oaooo8691 I meant more how the force judgement would screw up Vaders cybernetic components than it being a one hit ko
Palps purposefully made his suit especially vulnerable to electricity. Vader's suit was far less advanced than Grievous' during the Clone Wars.
He probably would have empathized with Anakin and helped him learn to forgive himself
Plo koon was such a giga chad in the path of the light, he had enough rightous justice to make his own force lightning "Electric Judgment" 🗿💀
It's MY LIFE, so I can choose my emotional suppot character and nobody can judge me for that
He was one of my favorite Jedi growing up.
I would have loved to have seen the tale of how Master Plo found and brought Ahsoka to the Jedi. There was either a scrapped episode or a script regarding that about how that happened and it was fascinating to find out about. It would have made a better episode then some of the fillers.
kinda pissed at how they gave him a 3s throwaway death scene, while they gave certified asshole Mundi a long feel-bad execution.
He was my favourite Jedi , now he is up there with Qui-Gon and Anakin.
In the clone wars he was one of my favorites. Ashoka loved him about as much as she loved Ankin. He was her father figure while Ankin was her brother and they both helped make her the Warrior she is.
I love obi wan but plo is my favorite jedi because one line he said to sinker and boost "not to me" (he doesn't see them as expendable)
When plo koon says "not to me" you can hear the irritation and that he dispises the way the clones are taught to think they are disposable.
Yeah, Plo Koon really cared for his soldiers, and it makes his death all the sadder. Plo Koon might have been able to sense his death, but because he loved his soldiers so much, maybe he thought it was impossible.
Fun fact: The voice actor for Plo Koon (James Arnold Taylor) also voices Obi Wan Kenobi. Both are goated!
Friendly reminder that who knows what would've happened had he not being flying at the time of Order 66.
That thumbnail of Plo koon and ‘lil Ahsoka is too cute.
Last time I was this early, Maul was still dead.
It would have been cool if Plo Koon had survived, his skills and dedication to the Force would have been invaluable for an underground movement of Jedi.
Plo Koon has always been my favorite jedi and I honestly couldn't tell you exactly why.
Qui-Gon would be comparable to Plo Koon then. Qui-Gon content is needed now more than ever.
Clones: start firing on plo´s ship
