There's that juicy story episode I've been wanting! I didn't post anything on the last one as it was just the usual fair with a little bit of interesting story material towards the ends, but this episode, big info here. We get to see Ahsoka in her live action debut and I liked her, Rosario definitely looks the part, seems fine for the role, though I'm not comparing the character to her cartoon version as I don't really know here well, never really watched Clone Wars and only half of Rebels. The only thing I didn't love was that she felt kinda weak at the end in her fight against the magistrate. Ahsoka being a Jedi shouldn't have had that much of an issue with a non-force user (I don't know if she was using a fighting style like Teras Kasi or something), but it's not the the best Jedi fight.
Other big news, Grogu! I'm probably never gonna stop calling him Baby Yoda, but it's nice getting more information on his backstory and while I knew he was "old", it never registered to me that he was around during the times of like the Clone Wars, even trained as a young Jedi, but much like what we saw in Jedi Fallen Order, he was forced to hide his powers and because he cut himself off, lost much of his abilities. Still the most adorable little Yoda ever.
Also, was not expecting that we would be getting Thrawn stuff. Don't know if that'll show up in Mando or one of the other shows that'll happen. I don't really know the character, just his importance and that SW fans like him, I just never read that era of Star Wars books and as I said, I didn't watch the cartoons. Cool to see where this leads though and his involvement with Ahsoka.
Curious where things go now. We know Mando will probably be meeting Moff Gideon next episode due to the tracker placed on his ship, I assume when he gets to the temple, maybe on the way, and I'm curious if a new Jedi shows up at the end with the temple stuff. Don't know who it would be as I don't know who would be around at this point. Luke of course is around, but I don't feel like they bring in Hamill and de-age him for this. If they are doing other characters that I know are around...going off my minimal knowledge of the cartoons, being that I haven't finished Rebels...maybe Ezra if he made it through that series fine? I don't know what Jedi are still around and are considered canon at this point.
