Loved Dawson thought she was perfect. Thought she’d bring too much of herself into it, but I feel like you could tell she studied Ashoka’s mannerisms. Props to the wardrobe team too, they nailed it.

I’d agree with CC that her action scenes left something on the table due to how Ashoka moves in the animated form. I felt like they could have had at least one shot of her trademark sprint with the swords behind her. But I also thought that it’s not like anyone was giving her much of a challenge until the end. It kind of made sense for her to deal with everyone quite easily. The final battle was decently done. Again, the samurai feel was quite potent. The way the Majestry fought with the spear was weird though. And I do find her actions regarding Grogu surprising. While technically a child of his species, he’s older than both of them and has obviously seen worse trauma than being separated from the guy he spent time with for those few months. And if she’s afraid of what he becomes improperly trained, what if that is done under the Empire? A Jedi MIGHT come? What about a Sith?

But I think this may have been my favourite of the series overall. Great western/samurai feel to whole piece. That spear is pretty badass. A way for Mando to battle the Dark Sabre.
