@ToddyRocket1 Ashoka looked excellent; they did a great job bringing her into the show. And now that she's live-action she's finally a relevant character. The episode was working as intended. You could even say that its vision was complete.
Why are her lighsabers white though?

The thing I was most excited about was the fact that no one can call Grogu “Baby Yoda” anymore.
Also I liked the mention of Thrawn
- @SuperSpyUU Yeah didn't expect him to have a name. Didn't realise Beskar had unlimited power either, awesome episode overall. Will be interesting to see Thrawn use Officer's Presence to get those Battle Points for doing nothing
@UNL1M1T3D_P0W3R @SuperSpyUU Yeah they did an awesome job with Ahsoka. She had her white lightsabers in Rebels already, which took place before Rogue One. You'd have to read the Ahsoka novel to find out how:
SpoilerShe defeated an Inquisitor. Then she took the red lightsaber crystal and cleansed or healed it. The result was a white lightsaber crystal. I think it was two of them to make the double blades of the Inquisitor.Thrawn was a great name drop too. That got me thinking of the timeline, so I rewatched the Rebels finale:
SpoilerIn the Rebels finale, Ezra jumps off into hyperspace with Thrawn. This happened prior to A New Hope. The episode ends with a scene from after the Battle of Endor. Ahsoka arrives on Lothal to pick up Sabine Wren. They are going to find Ezra.
So either Mandalorian happens after they failed to find Ezra, or it happens before they leave. Either way this is Ahsoka likely trying to find where to look for Ezra.It's been said that Lucasfilm was going to use Mandalorian as a way to kick start their plans going forward. I think we are seeing this with Season 2 giving us a live action Bo Katan and Ashoka. There's always been a rumored sequel to Rebels that I think this episode ties into. Maybe they spin off something with Bo Katan to continue the Mandalore arc.
Another thought...what if the Jedi who reaches out to Grogu is none other that Luke Skywalker? Could happen!! They did a younger version for the force projection scene in Last Jedi and flashback scenes. I'm sure they could pull it off with Mark Hamill for Mandalorian.

SpoilerWhat if we get introduced to another new Sith!? I'm far more excited for the possibilities of that. Groz already exhibited a lot of alluring traits to entice dark lurkers.
But Luke makes the most sense... Assuming his temple hasn't been destroyed yet. That's where we'd see a young Kylo and his soon to be Knight buddies. The time line in Star Wars has always been kind of confusing, but it seems as though the First Order is only just starting. Was Kylo with Snoke so early...? If so then Luke's temple would have been destroyed, Luke would be discouraged and possibly on his way to live as a hermit...
Hm, what if Ezra answers the call?
And then takes Grogu in, to become the Actual Yoda. He could teach Grogu he has to mask his identity, not only from others, but himself as well. Such were the possible lengths Ezra hypothetically had to go to through when he implanted himself into another timeline as Kanan. (Since there's possibly this rule revolving around time travel where you're not supposed to let your-past-self see your-future-self. . . WHICH SUDDENLY MAKES MANDALORIAN ARMORS PURPOSE SO OBVIOUS! Ah! That's another function! Oh no...) Then Yoda would have to help Ezra, who was being helped by Kanan... . . . Nah, they'll probably never go down this path. It'd be too confusing for people, and Jar Jar already showed what happens to materials that are to confusing for people... *Sigh*
- @ArchAngeL-PCX Ah okay, thanks for the info. I've never watched Rebels and don't intend to, but I get the gist of what's going on now with those characters. Just hope Ahsoka appears in m0@r episodes.
@UNL1M1T3D_P0W3RRebels is worth the watch. Or at least some key episodes, especially the season 2 finale. Did you watch Clone Wars?
Assuming you did, here's some key Rebels episodes that are most relevant to the Mandalorian/Maul/Ahsoka threads including the Darksaber:
- Season 2 eps 1, 2, 3, 4, 18, season 2 finale eps 21 and 22
- Season 3 eps 11, 15, 16, 20
- Season 4 eps 1, 2, 13, and season 4 finale eps 14-15EDIT: Added 13 to season 4...crucial for Ahsoka after watching the season 2 finale.
