1. The Sith Lord (ep 4) - great
2. Justice (ep 2) - very good and interesting, learnt a lot here
3. Resolve (ep 6) - classic post-ROTS Ahsoka-episode with some action
4. Choices (ep 3) - a bit cliche, but moves the story forward
5. Practice Makes Perfect (ep 5) - for better or worse, exactly what you would expect
6. Life and Death (ep 1) - mediocre

Agreed episode 1 was the weakest.

4 Dooku vs Yaddle was the best.

5 was ok until the final scene and then it really hit home for me. Classic clone wars.



I hope they live action some of these episodes one day.

They were all pretty good but all too short. I'd rather they make this a full-length series (or just focus on Dooku and Qui-Gon) instead of another season of Bad Batch.

A Dooku and Qui-Gon series would be great.

can someone explain the end of ep5? i assumed order 66 but then i rewatched the scene and the one dude is seemingly in cahoots with her as they walk out before it cuts to credits so i'm not sure what it was supposed to represent other than her being prepared to fight the shit ton of clones she's looking at. did i have to watch clone wars/rebels to know what was going on here? this was the only scene in the whole series i didn't quite understand.

i like this show for what it is, and it was nice to see a focus on the dooku/qui-gon pairing and get some clarity on dooku's turn. i like that these newer shows have leaned into exposing the jedi order's stubborn blindness and ego tripping which has given prequel characters like dooku and anakin some depth that the movies couldn't pull off.

You gotta watch the last season of Clone Wars. That was her during Order 66.

Wookiepedia: Onboard another Republic cruiser, Ahsoka and Rex walk down a hallway choked with smoke and sparks, signs of heavy damage. They stop outside a door. Rex puts his helmet on and says he hopes all of that training Ahsoka did will pay off. He raises one of his blaster pistols to her back, as if holding her prisoner, and she puts her hands up to her head, agreeing with him. The door opens and the two of them walk into the hangar beyond, where Jesse and troops of the 332nd Division wait.

I'm pretty excited to watch this, team. Hopefully, tomorrow. If I can get all my chores/packing finished before the Current game.

These were great. I'm shocked how interested I was in seeing young Dooku.

The Ashoka stuff was just perfect. Watching her take down that Inquisitor was everything. :heartbeat:

So yaddle just gets killed. By a lightsaber. And never mentioned again? By the council of anyone?

Am I missing something here ?



Also they got Liam neesons son to voice young qui gon.


And bail and ahsoka in that very last shot is obviously setting things up to come in her series

That scene took place while most of the council was on Naboo for Qui-Gon's funeral and the end of Phantom Menace. Attack of the Clones takes place another decade-plus later. Any convo about Yaddle would've happened in the interim. I'd venture to guess they never found her body and would have no idea how she was killed (or even dead in the first place).

They all of yoda at least would have sensed it. I’m just reading now that convo happens when they return to the temple with Anakin, after he faces Maul in the sands of Tatooine.

I kinda buy it I have no choice given I haven’t seen the prequels in ages

Sifodias apparently died around then too, and by the time AOTC happens they're treating it like ancient history.
