Well, it's A-Typical for Ahsoka to be cleaning up the underlying major threats on the periphery of the story-verse of this star wars Era. Makes sense she's in for a big fight involving the Brother, Sister and Father and Abeloth in another galaxy so far removed from the rest. Just going to be interesting how they cover Ray Stephensons unfortunate departure. I suppose the Brother takes over Balons part next season.

I thought this series would hit better and even I will admit it felt Flat. It didn't evoke feelings like Vader vs Ahsoka or give any real sense of dread at the appearance of Thrawn or the pure joy of meeting up with Ezra again. Maybe these characters don't translate well to live action.

And I'll say this about Rosario Dawson's Lughtsaber choreography, it's too slow for the character. Its too grounded and planted and far too steeped in Bushido . Her technique has missed to mark in terms of transitioning Ahsoka to live action. Perhaps that's to work around Dawson's limitation, I don't know. But all I've Sliver seen in ahsokas style has always been speed speed speed.

It's almost like they're intentionally playing down the characters skills and maybe ramping them up in this next season?

I Ikeda it, but I think it fell short of my excitement level for the character and the series.
