Maul have nothing but respect towards Ashoka because of his upbringings as an acolyte of the night sisters, he also have nothing but hatred towards Obi Wan because of the "Cut you in half" incident. Like one comment I saw one time: Maul greeting: Ashoka: "ah, the honorable and mighty Lady Tano" Obi Wan: "ah, the bastard himself"
@@thomasflores7817I think it said somewhere in a comic or talk video that Obi wans jump that cut Maul in half was a lot fast than we saw in the movie and also that maul was not expecting it either
@@atomicwarrior665I think he means that maul believes that Obi-Wan had no justification to slice him in half as though he was just chilling and dint just kill his master
Honestly love how they did Maul here, it's a clearly linear development from his Clone Wars characterization, throughout his time on screen he has become calmer and more evened out without ever losing either his (sometimes earned) arrogance or his aggression. He's all the more dangerous as a fairly calm antagonist, and he's learned the art of manipulating via the truth
@@TheCulturedMan34 come to think of it, I don't recall any time that Dooku outright lied to someone, he was very upfront but left out details that he knew the person he was speaking to would object to
Goes to show despite the philosophy being "peace is a lie, there is only passion", doesn't mean you need to be a rage blind psychopath, quite the contrary the emotions need to give you focus and determination in what you are doing to achieve victory. And nothing is more dangerous then a foe you can't read what they are thinking and planning.
Maul stated he couldn’t take on vader alone. I wonder if he already survived a previous encounter with him. Maybe Palps sent Vader to dethrone maul from his criminal empire “crimson dawn” and maul had been on the run ever since leading up to this arc.
I have the theory they met before and that's how Maul end end living as a hermit running from the Empire. I guess someone heard about a force sensitive leading a criminal empire and thought they'd get money by ratting him out to the inquisition.When the Inquisition arrived they found Maul and mistook him for a former Jedi who had fallen to the dark side, they were quickly shot down and fled severely wounded, losing their sabers in the process, eventually Vader was send to fight Maul, like a test to know if Vader have what is necessary to become a sith
The Inquisitors aren't really a match for any well-trained Force-user. Most of their prey has been half-trained Padawans, Jedi long past their prime or Force-sensitives who were never trained. Against Ahsoka (the former apprentice of the Chosen One) and Maul (a former Sith Lord), their inadequacies and wannabe statuses really show. And that actually makes sense from a narrative point of view. The Inquisitors are meant to appear as scary as possible to detract from how they're more-or-less glorified attack dogs, relying on their intimidating appearances and gimmicky lightsabers to overwhelm opponents; once they face foes who can overcome that, they fold pretty easily.
If I recall correctly from Legends / EU, the Inquisitors are intentionally gimped by Vader / Palpatine. Because the last thing they want is a bunch of powerful force sensitive Sith wannabes running around breaking the rule of two. They only recruit the Inquisitors so they stand a chance at hunting other force sensitives, but they haven't really been trained to tap into the true power of the force at all.
@@armybear2 No, you remember WRONG, buddy, because it's the Disney trash that made them weak because Palpatine is somehow afraid any of these clowns could overtake him. In the EU, Inquisitors varied a lot more : you got Jerec, who was essentially Dooku lite, extremely powerful and knowledgeable, who had 7 secret followers he trained. Antinnis Tremayne, a sneaky guy with half of his face covered by prosthetics, and one of the few who ever caught Vader off guard by targeting his chest plate. Adalric Brandl, a Force sensitive actor found by Palpatine, who later defected to become an independent Dark Jedi, even training a Jedi at some point (it's a complicated story). And guess what ? They've all got a better track record than any of these jokes.
I’m surprised that certain people think the Grand Inquisitor can beat Maul, when in reality it’s just not possible. I mean did those kind of people even watch this fight? Maul was literally toying with these three, they didn’t even damage him once, and the entire time he was just dancing in front of the 3 sloppy Inquisitors mopping the floor with them. I get Maul is a lot older now, but he’s no helpless man. He was still able to move so fast that the Inquisitors couldn’t keep up with him, and another good example that he’s still pretty much the same Darth Maul from CW is he moved so fast Kanan didn’t have time to defend himself, when Maul charged towards him. So many people extremely underestimate Maul, he would demolish every Inquisitor we talk about. Edit: thank you guys so much for all the likes. I wasn’t even asking for them nor was I even expecting to get this many, I just wanted to make a statement.
Do some people really think this? I mean, Grand Inquisitor had a hard time fighting Kanan who is a low trained Jedi Knight while Maul gave Kenobi, a really good Jedi Master and even Sidious himself a hard time when they fought.
@@antonindolohov1277 Oh believe me! Not a lot just some. But I’ve seen the comments myself. I had a debate with someone in a reply section of another video, I replied saying Maul would demolish the Inquisitor with absolutely no difficulty, then someone replied to me saying that he disagreed saying “it’d be a tough fight for Maul” mainly for the reason that the GI was a Temple Guard. Our debate didn’t last long, since I told him how he couldn’t sense the betrayal of Reva, and he lost to Kanan, while Darth Maul has killed Jedi Masters.
And Asajj and Grievous who are both below Maul. To be honest I think a good handful of people overestimate the Grand Inquisitor, because of both his title and simply his cool look. Also I don’t want people to think of me as some hater of GI. Because I honestly think he was one of the best villains that Rebels had to offer besides Thrawn and Vader. The only force users during the Rebels era that the GI can actually defeat in fair combat is Ezra and the Inquisitors below him. Everyone else easily stomps him.
You're basically hoping for the character to be redeemed and start fighting for the Rebellion here. Sadly Palpatine twisted Maul too severely for him to ever live a normal life.
@@tompearce5418It's sad that the only time Maul actually had peace was when he was dying in Obi-wan's arms when the latter ended him. He had dozens of opportunities to just turn away & live at least a decent life, just like Asajj Ventress did, right up until the point when he met Obi-wan again after decades, yet instead of just bickering like old friends didn't quite like each other & leaving it at that, he had to force Obi-wan's hand.
Kanan is so underrated. He wasn’t even finished training and yet he has the discipline to take out Maul only seconds after becoming blind. Not to mention he’s one of the only modern Jedi who sees that love is a good thing, but also doesn’t let it blind him(no pun intended). Kanan is what all Jedi should have driven themselves to be!
when maul first fought the group of them after saying his actions will speak louder, he was just toying around, performing. to convince the others of his allegience. now after freshly killing 7th sis, his agenda changed to dispatching everyone asap to meet with ezra and beat vader. that's where we saw his fighting style change to rapid, punchy and overtly aggressive with less wide, flamboyant leaping and evasion, he saved more time and space.
0:20 Look at Maul's face. That huge, teeth-baring smile. Look at how much he relishes the opportunity to battle other Force users again, even if he knows they're no match for him. I love how they took him from a one-off nobody villain to one of Star Wars' most interesting and complicated characters. By the end, I dare say he hates the Sith almost as much as he hates Obi-Wan.
I think its because he knows theyre no match for him. He fears vader, as he reveals in this episode, who is stronger than him, but he sees the inquisitors as prey, or like a light snack
It’s crazy the inquisitors lasted as long as they did with both maul and Ashoka I mean we all know how op maul is and anyone who watched tales of the Jedi know Ashoka does inquisitors dirty 😂
Maul toyed with them in the first encounter. The difference between that and after he sensed vader was easily shown. Aggressive, less exaggeration of movements and sweeps proved it.
Maul was Personally trained by sidious. He is a powerful sith. Mauls abilities are genuinely underestimated. He has a powerful potential in the force due to his mother being Talzin. But he is kinda like Anakin, where he relies on his sword too often.
The only difference is anakin try to do obi wan thing from episode 1 and its fail while maul do the high ground thing and its doesnt work on padawan of trolling
Maul was a powerful Sith. Here, he's a broken man, deeply traumatised, yearning for past glory. He is much weaker here than on Naboo. It's why he loses so consistently.
3:18 It’s kind of funny how this scene is depicted as somehow being “dark” by the ambience when Maul just did the logical thing here. What’s he gonna do, put her down and tell her to stop fighting? They have no way to restrain her and it’s obviously she’ll try to kill them once she recovers. Maul did the right thing here
Did anyone notice how maul does the same pose the Grand Inquisitor did at 0:21 when he fought Kanan and Ezra in the hall after finding out about Master Luminara's death.
@@JacobChouinard-fn1cl he isn't just joyful about fighting though, he's giddy the whole time and it's a little jaring. Even in times where he's about to fight, like on Mandalore, he isn't giddy, he's wearing a calm, collected mask over his intense fear and rage
I actually watched this for the first time last night, and every time Maul spoke i was hanging on every word he said. Through all of seasons 1 and 2 the Inquisitors where to be feared and to run from, and they earned that, they did some very frightful things but here the tables are turned, THEY are frightened of Maul, and so is Ahsoka and he did in a few short moments what no one else would have or could have done, and he made it look easy. The re introduction of Maul in this show is fantastic, he may be in his 50's but he's still a warrior, a beast and second only to Vader, the scariest man in the room.
This is my favorite line because he's speaking from experience. His weakness caused him to lose against obi wan and also allowed Sidious to kill savage oppress right in front of him
Maul was one of the most terrifying fighters in star wars and I think they did him dirty by nerfing him so hard I mean he really did beat obi wan and qui gon single handed and he wasn’t even a full sith just an apprentice he was really only trained for lightsaber combat the only reason he lost was because his pride got the better of him and he let his guard down in order to torment obi wan instead of just killing him.
It's kind of wild to think about the fact that old ass Darth Maul leaped into battle against three double bladed inquisitors (one of which is much bigger than him) and proceeded to easily out duel them. Darth Maul is just the fucking best I love the look, the character hell I even love his home planet
I like how just like Grievous and Anakin never really fought or met during the entirety of the Clone Wars up until the end of the War, Maul & Anakin never really met nor fought each other, just once almost getting ran over on Tatooine and briefly again on Naboo. Though I wouldn’t count that as “meeting.”
The contrast here is so good u have 3 young false double bladed users who have to use technology to make it spin. Then you have a man who’s trained with the double all his life and he can spin it just as fast as them with his bare hands
Season 2 frequently teased the idea that Ezra might turn to the dark side, with being friendly with Maul and killing ATST driver with mind control and all that, but then nothing happens at all and it's all forgotten.... obviously the protagonist of a kid show about Rebels can't become bad but still, I feel like it's kinda against "Chekov's gun".
I whole heartedly believe that the amount of physical hits m he landed on the Inquisitors could’ve been a lightsaber if he really want to. Imo he was just hoping that if the Inquisitors stayed alive, they might defeat Ashoka or Kanan by chance, pushing Ezra to the dark side.
No this is actually true. That and the fact that he’s playing with his food here, you can see the sinister grin on his face just before he jumps at them, he hasn’t been in a duel in a long time and is eager to enjoy it. The fact that he literally jabs one with his wooden cane tells me that he’s literally just styling on them for the hell of it.
Eighth brother had potential too he was able to beat kanan and Ezra by himself. He was also sent to find maul by himself that means Vader or Palpatine felt like he was capable of doing it
I would love a fight between the Grand Inquisitor and maul, now, maul might win, however people underestimate the Grand Inquisitor, and he was done pretty dirty in rebels overall. First the Grand Inquisitor being sent, then Vader and then the weak Inquisitors. Not sure if that even made sense but yea anyways.. Overall, I think the Grand Inquisitor is very underrated. He was a Temple Guard which of course requires specific characteristics, they were elite, strong and respected. Additionally, he has studied almost the entirety of the Jedi Archives, allowing him to understand all the lightsaber forms that the jedi used and counter them easily + master them in some way. Also gathered information on many Jedi and their past etc. Of course, most of this wasn't represented properly in Rebels, sadly. My opinion though. That's the only major critique I had regarding the show, otherwise you know, it was wonderful.
He sensed Vader's arrival, if you look closely you can see that some of the lights are fading in straight line. That's probably because of his ship above the construction
U know your a badass when another sith can sense your presence because that's pretty terrifying I'f u ask me especially since Vader can easily kill maul in a few seconds
Maul is one of those villains who is very good at pretending to be a good guy, or at least an antihero. Last villain I can remember who was this good at deception was Megatron back when he coaxed an amnesiac Optimus Prime back in Season 2 of Transformers Prime.

To be fair, inquisitors were never really that good. It says a lot that two Palawan where enough to kill their grandmasters.

Vader
I actually watched this for the first time last night, and every time Maul spoke i was hanging on every word he said. Through all of seasons 1 and 2 the Inquisitors where to be feared and to run from, and they earned that, they did some very frightful things but here the tables are turned, THEY are frightened of Maul, and so is Ahsoka and he did in a few short moments what no one else would have or could have done, and he made it look easy. The re introduction of Maul in this show is fantastic, he may be in his 50's but he's still a warrior, a beast and second only to Vader, the scariest man in the room.
3:18 is the best advice in life whenever it comes to war/combat is sad but that is kinda the reality of it.
This is my favorite line because he's speaking from experience. His weakness caused him to lose against obi wan and also allowed Sidious to kill savage oppress right in front of him
Maul really trying to turn Ezra to the dark side
Maul is such an obscenely good character fr
The Spanish Inquisition really stood no chance
I love how rebels a cartoon for children had some of the best star wars content we’ve had in years
ja you are funny xd
@@nilius7974 yep cause you know its right
Maul was one of the most terrifying fighters in star wars and I think they did him dirty by nerfing him so hard I mean he really did beat obi wan and qui gon single handed and he wasn’t even a full sith just an apprentice he was really only trained for lightsaber combat the only reason he lost was because his pride got the better of him and he let his guard down in order to torment obi wan instead of just killing him.
And since then, he never really gaind back his power. The story of Maul is a tragedy of potential lost to pride, the same way as the story of Anakin.
Bros lightsaber is older than some characters💀
Placing Inquisitors against a former Sith? You may as well have sent a club bouncer to fight a marine XD
Darth Maul is literally the actual Inquisitor class of the Sith. xD
I laughed when he tried to fly away on the helicopter lightsaber and it broke
It's kind of wild to think about the fact that old ass Darth Maul leaped into battle against three double bladed inquisitors (one of which is much bigger than him) and proceeded to easily out duel them. Darth Maul is just the fucking best I love the look, the character hell I even love his home planet
This was sick
Maul: me
1:54-3:28
Seventh sister: Doris
Fifth brother: Boris
Eighth brother: Caillou
rebels was the last show to show this much killing
Mandalorian kills a ton of people every episode lol
@@Darth_Xionn Okay but was Mandalorian on the Disney XD channel? Lol
“what are we waiting for” he knows nothing of Maul and it shows, he really didn’t need any help lmao
"What are we waiting for" Proceeds to just stand there lol
bro the way Maul screamed and threw his lightsaber at the Inquisitor was badass
I love how Maul is the oldest guy in the room by nearly 20 years and still immediately starts winning a 3v1.
Mauls handing out kicks like its roadhouse
3:07 my favorite moment
Maul looking at ahsoka be like: I told u so
Maul saw her expression and knew she seen him as weak..just like a sith
I like how just like Grievous and Anakin never really fought or met during the entirety of the Clone Wars up until the end of the War, Maul & Anakin never really met nor fought each other, just once almost getting ran over on Tatooine and briefly again on Naboo. Though I wouldn’t count that as “meeting.”
Ezra: "what are we waiting for?"
Ezra, kanen, and Ashoka: continues to wait
These fools of Inquisitors don’t know what it means to be trained by Sidious but Maul does 😂
The contrast here is so good u have 3 young false double bladed users who have to use technology to make it spin. Then you have a man who’s trained with the double all his life and he can spin it just as fast as them with his bare hands
Maul can wipe the floor of any inquisitor. Even the grand inquisitor. Those who say otherwise are delusional.
Maul: They give lightsabers to anyone these days. 😒
Maul acts like an anti-hero now, he’s on the good side but he uses unorthodox methods (in this case, the dark side)
Season 2 frequently teased the idea that Ezra might turn to the dark side, with being friendly with Maul and killing ATST driver with mind control and all that, but then nothing happens at all and it's all forgotten.... obviously the protagonist of a kid show about Rebels can't become bad but still, I feel like it's kinda against "Chekov's gun".
Ok, but the Inquisitors were genuinely terrifying. If I could be one character in Star Wars, I would be an Inquisitor.
And now the Inquisitors are no more but a memory.
They really fly like Mary Poppins lmao
I whole heartedly believe that the amount of physical hits m he landed on the Inquisitors could’ve been a lightsaber if he really want to. Imo he was just hoping that if the Inquisitors stayed alive, they might defeat Ashoka or Kanan by chance, pushing Ezra to the dark side.
No this is actually true. That and the fact that he’s playing with his food here, you can see the sinister grin on his face just before he jumps at them, he hasn’t been in a duel in a long time and is eager to enjoy it. The fact that he literally jabs one with his wooden cane tells me that he’s literally just styling on them for the hell of it.
And imagine that Darth Maul trained the next generation of jedi.🎉
I would just create a group of dark jedis lmao
I love how maul is turning that kid to the dark side
Anyone else find the lightsaber helicopters hilariously stupid?
Still has his ear pierced
I GUARANTEE YOU the inquisitors wouldn’t be shit if their blades didn’t spin. They rely on it too much and you can tell by the way they fight
I’m so glad they made maul go back to the double blade.
0:23 don’t know why but that face he makes always reminds me of Ratchet from Robots😂
Sam Witwer was such an enhancement to an already iconic character
All the inquisitors are gone for good!
Real shame about Seventh Sister. She was the only new Inquisitor they introduced who felt like she had any potential
I was honestly shocked and sad when Maul killed her she was one of my favorite villains
Everything about her death; Maul's merciless strike, her sheer terror and final scream. Really quite a shocking and scary moment.
Eighth brother had potential too he was able to beat kanan and Ezra by himself. He was also sent to find maul by himself that means Vader or Palpatine felt like he was capable of doing it
@@swooshie4749 at least we have Trilla Sinduri
Bro casually wanted Ezra to be his apprentice
That's probably the most fun he's had since he killed Satine
I would love a fight between the Grand Inquisitor and maul, now, maul might win, however people underestimate the Grand Inquisitor, and he was done pretty dirty in rebels overall. First the Grand Inquisitor being sent, then Vader and then the weak Inquisitors. Not sure if that even made sense but yea anyways..
Overall, I think the Grand Inquisitor is very underrated. He was a Temple Guard which of course requires specific characteristics, they were elite, strong and respected. Additionally, he has studied almost the entirety of the Jedi Archives, allowing him to understand all the lightsaber forms that the jedi used and counter them easily + master them in some way. Also gathered information on many Jedi and their past etc.
Of course, most of this wasn't represented properly in Rebels, sadly. My opinion though. That's the only major critique I had regarding the show, otherwise you know, it was wonderful.
I never watched the clone wars series so seeing maul here was a surprise to me
This is arguably one of the greatest returns
Maul is the most badass characters in all of Star Wars. If I was ever going to get a tattoo it would be of him.
Wth how many times does Maul come back to life !?
3:52 maul was looking at something but what was it?
He sensed Vader's arrival, if you look closely you can see that some of the lights are fading in straight line. That's probably because of his ship above the construction
Oh
U know your a badass when another sith can sense your presence because that's pretty terrifying I'f u ask me especially since Vader can easily kill maul in a few seconds
1:04 all i can think of is the HELICOPTER HELICOPTER meme 😂
Lol the 8th brother falling to his death after his helicopter lightsaber blows a fuse.
Im so glad the last guy wasnt able to just SaberCopter away lmfao
I like that Maul fought with the saberstaff AND cane
Maul is one of those villains who is very good at pretending to be a good guy, or at least an antihero. Last villain I can remember who was this good at deception was Megatron back when he coaxed an amnesiac Optimus Prime back in Season 2 of Transformers Prime.
Ezra: I can't kill her
Maul: I got it
