Awesome review guy's! Great impersonation of Greedo Mike it was spot on 😂 This show was so badass! Have a great day my Reject family have a great day and stay blessed!
How can animated studios accomplish such MESMERIZING ONE-ON-ONE FIGHTS while the Prequels just showed actors waving lightsabers around like sticks?😂😂😂
@@LillianRodriguez-lh2zf exactly what I was thinking while watching the lightsaber scenes.
Your talk you have with Michael reminds me of my brother and me talking about shows😂🎉
I also like how Vader recognizes Barris but doesn’t say anything just sits on his throne taking it all in
Fun fact:
The Grand Inquisitor was actually one of the Temple Guards who helped arrest Barriss in Clone Wars. And because of her speech at the trail changed him.
Which would explain why he wanted to put her in the program, but he probably didn’t anticipate her mellowed down in prison
Hey is there a source material for this incident..is it a comic or novel? Like where it is mentioned..i wanna check it out too..!
@@dileep96stark23watch rebels
@@charlie5849he means the Barriss bit
@@dileep96stark23Dave Filoni confirmed it in an interview, but there is no source material for it.
I want more of Grievous in his new model in future projects. He looks so bad ass in this. And shows how vicious the Separates can be
It was almost a flashback to his introduction in the original Clone Wars animated series.
You ever watch a show and go, "The soil looks amazing!"
And that shot of darth vader. WHAT IS REAL AND WHAT IS ANIMATED
I literally wowed when i saw that soil.
Can't get over just how fucking awesome Thrawn and Vader look in the Clone Wars style. They've seriously been working overtime upgrading whatever software they use to animate this, Vader looks almost photo realistic compared to how we saw him at the end of Clone Wars
Don't forget Rukh! He's much scarier here, and frankly so is Thrawn. The way he looked when the light was catching his red eyes when he was talking with Morgan was giving me the creeps.
@JessAnderson1988 Fr! THIS is the Thrawn I imagined while reading the books. Chef's kiss to whoever wrote the dialogue for that episode. Quite frankly, that 3-minute scene was better than anything we got out of him in Ahsoka
I did like Rebels model of Thrawn better but I loved Rukh here better than REbels for sure.
They're moving slowly away from hand drawn textures to more photo realistic materials, while keeping the Clone Wars era designs themselves.
@@saladspinner3200 Nah, it's still very much hand painted textures. It's just very detailed and subtle hand painted textures, where as the early clone wars days was more broad brush strokes. There's no photo realism here, and there never will be. Too expensive and time consuming, and the whole point of this animation art style is for every frame to look like a painting or a piece of concept art, not a realistic photo.
That's Katee Sackoff aka Bo Katan-Kryze who receives the message.
Ohhhhhh
@@ReelRejects Yup that's Bo Katan. I know that voice so well lol.
Which would explain how how Ahsoka got on the planet Bo delivered the message
Same lmao i recognized it instantly
But Bo katan doesn't work for the new Republic
16:40 That's Captain Pellaeon, Thrawn's right-hand man and commanding officer. He was in the shadow council in the Mandalorian season 3.
Thrawn isn't supposed to know Pellaeon until he is a grand admiral with him only joining Thrawn's fleet the dew days before Lothal
But it seems it's a retcon
@@alixvalove yea, I'm highly irritated by that. Thrawn meets Pellaeon after Thrawn defeats the traitor Grand Admiral Savit in the novel Thrawn: Treason, which is set 1 week before the final battle of Lothal which concludes Star Wars Rebels. And them putting him in this early in Thrawn's career just contradicts that entire sequence of events, which is 100% canon.
Yeah, Filoni doesn't care about other peoples work. He had Ventress resurrected
@@theunknownuser9609 Er... Dark Disciple is based on Filoni's canceled The Clone Wars episode, and Ventress got resurrected at the end of it.
Michael pointed out the extra Kiner in the credits, and thats right! Both of Kevin Kiner's kids, Sean and Deana, have been working on Star Wars music since Rebels, and they started getting fully credited with Bad Batch S3!
The connection to The Mandalorian with Morgan Elsbeth as she builds her empire. The animation as you said is next level where it looks more real than CGI. The scene with young Elsbeth when she grabs the sand on her home planet of Dathomir just beautiful.
May The 4th Be With You!! What was your favorite episode this season?!
Greg mentioning that the Morgan story almost felt like she wasn't making choices was an interesting take on what appears to be the quick and easy path. I'm a big finale guy so ep6 was probably my favorite. I need to listen to the music when Bariss mentions an, "old friend," it did sound like a more recent version of Ahsoka's theme in your reaction. You could easily call that Ahsoka's theme when Bariss say's, "You've already done more than you should. Take what you've learned and pass it on," but it could easily be a coincidence.
Ep1 and ep2 i can't decide
My favorite EP was Barris offee episodes so dark and great ark for her
Watched the whole thing it's great 👍
I really like the last episode with the cave and bariss. Plus with how Lyn behaved. In her anger and fear, she may have killed someone who could have been a friend to her and the dark side, the power she thought would save her would have led to her destruction if she had continued to cling onto it. I'm not sure if bariss is alive or dead. When Lyn said she'll get barriss out of here, it may have just meant that she wasn't gonna let her die in the dark and I think either way works. These episodes were so good and the animation was so stunning with this art style
My man Lars Mikkelsen earning his check once again! 💙 💜
“There is no way out, is there?” “That’s what the empire wants you to think…” 😭😭😭😭
One thing I love in any show or movie. Is when they start off with a battle scene. When the story starts and we jump right into the action🤌
Morgan's arc gives me chills, how she went from being a victim to become victimizer.
May The 4th brings me more joy than my birthday or Halloween combined. And this show is a perfect gift for this holiday.
I think Tales of the Empire was good but not as good as Tales of the Jedi imo. I think Ep. 4 was the best one. One thing has to be said tho: the animation & atmosphere were amazing. And of course I loved Grievous! 💙💚
I'm starting to seriously wonder if Barriss survived.
Let's start with the fact that her story will definitely be continued because we need to show her transformation from a naive and inexperienced teenager to a calm, wise adult woman, and maybe even a master. We also know that she probably met with Ahsoka.
In this case, unfortunately, Barriss gets permanent plot armor, and that can't be changed.
If Barriss survives, that opens the door to many possibilities for both her and Lyn. From further cooperation with Ahsoka to theories involving Grogu and possible appearances in Mandoverce.
And to be honest, her survival would make the most sense out of all the characters who were stabbed in this way. She's a very experienced healer. I wouldn't be surprised if she could even use Lyn's Force abilities to heal herself. Additionally, it would be very symbolic.
She might survive actually. I don´t think they would end her story like that. Not after they just continued it after such a long time.
The only question is, what can we expect her story to be after this episode? Perhaps they will be running from the Empire together with Lyn and maybe she will reunite with Ahsoka?
She's dead
@@crypticmaster830 You aren't a fans of Star Wars.
@chanlion961 says the delusional hypocritic
It's hard to know for sure. Lyn says that she'll get Barriss out of there, which implies she was still alive. But at the same time it looked like Barriss stopped breathing when she was picked up.
Ahh Bariss following the Jedi old tradition of yeeting dark siders from great highs! 😁
Seriously her three episodes were amazing. Story, fighting choreography and the character development for her and Lyn. Now i just hope she didn't actually died sacrificing herself to bring Lyn back to the light. C'mom writers, Obi didn't need to die to show Reva another way. Don't kill Bariss off like that. 😆
@ReelRejects,
26:43 That was Bo-Katan Kryze, not Ahsoka Tano that answered the distress call.
It's Kate Sackhoff's voice over, not Rosario's. The one who receives the distress call is Bo-Katan, not Ahsoka :). Great video as always❤
I don't care what toxic Star Wars fans say, but now I want an Inquisitors series.
This
Read the Vader comics if you’re looking for more inquisitor stuff it’s fire
I want the next series to be Tales of Order 66
@@casualfanatic4217that’s pretty much what Star Wars canon is right now. We’ve gotten so many perspectives of Order 66 is the past few years, it’s crazy.
As you wish.
Fun fact: Morgan Elsbeth debut is November 27th, 2020 on The Mandalorian the birthday of Bruce Lee. Lee was born in the year and hour of the dragon and Diana Lee Inosanto is the god daughter of Bruce Lee.
Like poetry...
The timeline continuity all within the The Mandalorian, Ahsoka, Tales of the Jedi, Rebels etc., also serving as a small prequel to some of the characters especially with Morgan Elsbeth just beautiful.
Agreed, preferred this over tales of the jedi!
@@ReelRejects Also Kenobi with the fourth sister Lyn and Jason Issacs The Inquisitor from Rebels. The character of Wing I believe appeared in season 1 of The Mandalorian.
@@ReelRejects Crazy
@@ReelRejects Then you really don't understand good story telling. Tales of the Empire was shit and a massive let down despite all the hype around it.
@@GamingxKnight Then you don't understand good story telling. Tales of the Jedi was shit and a massive let down despite all the hype around it.
2 can play at that game. As much as I hate to admit it, being that Ahsoka is my favorite Star Wars character, Tales of the Empire was better.
Just to be clear I don't actually have a problem with people liking Tales of the Jedi more. It was really really good. But the audacity some people have telling other that "They don't understand good storytelling" is insulting and arrogant. Disagree all you want but check your over inflated ego at the door. YOU are NOT the authority on good story telling.
Nice to see a nod to Legends and the Singing Mountain Clan
Rya Kihlstedt who plays the 4th sister who appears in Kenobi and in this prequel in-between storyline was the season 2 big bad in Superman & Lois playing that cult sort of leader.
Wow! I should've known that! I love Superman & Lois, and thought her cult character was sick and devious as heck. I hope she gets to voice and portray Lyn Rakish more in the near future...
Really enjoyed this show each episode was quality. Was so cool to see general grievous again Thankyou dave filoni.
While I don’t think this is nearly as good as tales of the Jedi, this has made me even more excited for that clones series. The animation in this show was perfection. Almost brought tears to my eyes seeing how far my beloved clones wars style animation has come.
What clomes series?
THIS WAS AWESOME. I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR BARRIS STORY FOR SO LONG
May the fourth be with you both happy Star Wars day, watched the whole thing this morning loved it ❤ i loved Morgan Elsbeth’s story and loved your reactions ❤❤
These episodes were awesome! I feel more for Morgan, but I fell for Barriss ❤
What I love about star wars now is that they’re still doing what George always did back then make prequels to movies or shows to explain certain characters or fill in certain plots. So that you can go back and watch it all in order.
Dave Filoni learned from The Master. And now, Filoni's Team is continuing the legacy...
Damn. Didn't expect to cry with barris here
Bo katan sending ashoka to that planet explains how she knew ashoka was there but why did that rebellion know to contact bo katan or was it just a wide range signal and thats who answered the distress call
Perhaps the clan of Bo was still in cahoots with the young New Republic, to get them restarted.
Great Reactions Greg and Michael! These episodes were pretty cool! 👍
Pellaeon is the Captain of the Chimaera and Thrawn’s no 1 admirer and Rukh is Thrawn’s Noghri bodyguard in the original Thrawn book trilogy but they’ve both made appearances in canon (Rukh was in Rebels S4 but had a fate completely different from the books and Pellaeon was mentioned by name in the finale, and appears in the Mandalorian s3)
Oh the animation, the texture given to fabrics jumped out at me in the first episode. Rukh has never been more menacing.
I love seeing Greivous actually intimidating
The cave scene was amazing
It’s so crazy to me that the animated Star Wars shows have the best fight choreography in all Star Wars
Yess this series is here.. May the 4th be With both of YOU
Awesome Video!!! These Tales Series are So Good at focusing on two different Characters that haven't been fully fleshed out. And I thought It Was Incredible!!! As a Huge Fan of The Empire and The Inquistors, This is Exactly What I Wanted! Morgan Elsbeth is a Great Character and I Loved getting to see more of Her Backstory and More of Dathomir. Grievous Definitely Stole The Show in That Episode! He was Absolutely Badass!!! It was So Awesome to see Grievous be this terrifying monster and just go on a Rampage! I Like how each Episode was Named after the Four Things that Lead You to The Dark Side. Fear, Anger, Hate and Suffering. It was So Cool to see Thrawn in Clone Wars Style Animation! He's One of My Favorite Star Wars Characters and I Loved seeing Him recruit Morgan to The Empire. It really fleshes out Her Character So Well and makes Her a lot More Sympathetic. Also, It was Cool to see Rukh and Pellaeon Again! And I've been waiting to see what Happened to Barriss Ever Since The Clone Wars and I'm So Happy We Finally got to see it! Seeing The Grand Inquisitor in Clone Wars Animation was Also Awesome! And even though He was in One Scene, Vader was Still Absolutely Epic!!! And I Really Loved how Barriss' Arc was Handled In This Show. She was never Truly Evil, She was just disillusioned with The Jedi and thought that they had become corrupt. And Ultimately, She was right. So She never belonged with The Empire in the first place and I thought that That Arc was done Beautifully. And then at The End when She Confronted Lyn She had come Full Circle and She Died a True Jedi's Death. I thought it was a Great Redemption for Her Character. What a Great May The Fourth Present from Star Wars!!! Well Done Dave Filoni!!!
Grievous' cackling was so disturbing loved it haha. I love Greg's TROL of playing all the games!
May the 4th be with you guys
Love this character development for Barris she just became one of my new fav characters
Borris Coffee LMAO
I just want to own a store of lightbulbs and name it “Luminara”
This is where the fun begins
All of them were fire!!! I need 6 more
I was really impressed how compelling Barriss episodes were :)
Every episode what a surprise to be sure but a welcome one
I’d watch the hell out of a Hidden Path show
I’ve been so busy haven’t watch Bad Batch let alone watch your reactions. I’m glad I was able to watch these. Anyway: HI Michael ☺️
Ra's Al Ghul giving exposition dialogue is always great to hear. Jason Issacs is a national treasure. Also would've loved to hear Clancy Brown's voice as the Inquisitor since he is going to face off against Ahsoka Tano in Tales of the Jedi.
Did you prefer this over Tales Of The Jedi?!
Depends on the story or episode for me. I liked the Dooku arc from Tales of the Jedi and The Barris Offee arc best in the Tales of the Empire. Though that said I didn't like what they did with Bariss after the episode Devotion. Barris not being Marrok and fulfilling more of the role of Morgan Elsbeth was a wasted opportunity in Ahsoka.
In fact they could have never even created Marrok and Elsbeth in the first place and just had this mysterious inquisitor fulfill the role as Thrawns new personal bodyguard only for it to be revealed to be Barris Offee. Ok maybe you may still need Elsbeth. Though why not have a former helmet wearing inquisitor as The Magistrate on Corvus. Also Barris was Ahsoka's only real nemesis left. Though now I guess they're going for Thrawn even though that is a total shoehorn simply due to both characters popularity and Filoni's love for them. Filoni built Thrawn up to more of Hera's I seem to remember. The crack pilot General vs the fleet strategist Grand Admiral. Filoni dropping the ball with his quarter baked good ideas as usual until he forgets or mixes the wrong ingredient. BRING BACK GEORGE AND EU COMIC/NOVEL WRITERS!!!
may the fourth be with you
General Grievous in this show is peak
I like how Bariss couldn't be a jedi, then she tried being an inquisitor but she didn't give to her dark side. She's neither of them. She's basically a grey jedi.
This series is so epic!!!
That distress signal is how Ashoka learn about Elsbeth😆
Barris originally was forgiven for the bombings and returned as a jedi but was killed in order 66
There was no official canon regarding the fate of Barris, until now.
If they ever do the Grand Inquisitor again please my they get Jason Isaacs to voice him. That’s one of the things that hurt Obi Wan
I used to have a whole Barriss cosplay in part inspired by her roles as a healer in the Legends EU so I was so pissed when Filoni did her dirty (I really think in some ways her general objections - minus the terrorism - should have been Ahsoka's reasons for leaving the Order instead of the stupid 'false accusation' plot, because her reasoning was correct) so I am really, really excited they brought that back in.
I really appreciate that they stayed in line with the fact that Barriss had moral oppositions to what the Jedi were doing BECAUSE she felt it was too close to the Dark side, so having her still try to stay true to that instead of just throwing in with the Inquisitors makes sense for where she's at. She doesn't trust the Jedi, but she doesn't trust the Empire either. I like exploring that several Jedi may have joined up initially out of confusion/fear but for at least some of them their teachings would have re-asserted themselves. Not all of them, of course.
That said I wish they had maybe explored her potential resentment over the fact that Luminara was willing to let her die in the name of the greater good but Anakin wasn't willing to let go. I also think it could have been interesting to explore more about the Jedi that might actually willingly decide to go with the Empire; either because they are misled about the Jedi, disillusioned about it, rationalize that they are just 'following orders' and serving the now legitimate government, or maybe just all along felt that might makes right and they should be in charge. They did go there a bit with Lyn but I guess wanted more than a short could give us!
I agree there was some missed potential with her history with Anakin. I feel like it's implied she recognized him (and vice versa), but like you say, there is baggage there.
I really like this show, it's awesome
Dang Michael, you were jumping the gun like a madman with these episodes lmao, gotta let them just play out, buddy!
Note to self: No espresso before a reaction...
@@michaeltessler hahahah, it's all good dude, I do the same thing. Star Wars has that effect on us lol
This show does some great things.
1. I love showing the size difference between the Clone Wars era capital ship (Venerator I think) and the Star Destroyers. I never realized how much bigger they were because they were always was on a scale I couldn't comprehend anyway.
2. This show does what I hope future shows set during the Empire do. SHOW THE EMPIRE IN A BETTER LIGHT!!! This show does a great job showing that the Empire had potential to be a good and effective government but something was wrong with it. Thrawn explains it some but Bariss really gets it. She would have made an excellent Inquisitor. She understood what the use of power and intimidation was meant for and how it needed to be tempered with compassion and mercy. But something was wrong with the Empire. They pushed evil for the sake of evil. Honestly I think Bariss could have easily gotten away with killing the other Inquisitor because she was showing weakness by slaughtering innocent, starving civilians. I could hear Vader saying "Oh yes, they will fear you as much as the farmer that gathers his harvest. These people were as much of a threat to you as insects. You FOOL! Your actions show that you fear THEM! The true show of power would be to reward them for cooperating with the Empire, that even if they were made stronger they would still not pose a threat to you." It shows how the Empire was only a tool of Palpatine to obtain immortality. TLDR; The Empire and the Republic both failed for the same reason. Palpatine wouldn't allow them to be better.
There is a ton more but those two were my favorite.
The comments here are much more positive than in Star Wars Theory Channel.
I somehow became more hopeful that people will like this show based off your reaction then when I watched a certain other UA-camr’s reaction to the show. While I felt that the ending of episode six was a little anti-climactic. I did like how you guys talked about it after because you spoke a lot to what I feel like they were trying to go for the writing of these characters.
20:04 its Bo Katan, not Ashoka.
And Bo katan then tells ahsoka and ahsoka goes there to liberate the town while also finding info about thrawn
MORE MOREEEE
I also said to myself when I watched it, "the fidelity on that dirt if fucking amazing" 😂❤
This was amazing
My theory why Bariss looks so old in the final episode, even though she's roughly the same age as ahsoka and the Empire is still around: she's known as a healer.. as stated in episode 9 the rise of skywalker, Rey heals the snake as well as Kylo Ren using Force Heal. Rey states that she transfers a little of her own life essence to help the other being. So if Bariss is known as a healer, she has given alot of her own essence to others thus aging faster than normal. And I am totally on board with my own theory. She gives back the life she once took from others during the bombing. It's her way of redemption.
That was not Ahsoka, that was Bo-Katan's voice on the radio. 🤨
"just because someone does not want to fight that they're not capable"
where have we hear that before?
"just because someone stumbles and loses their way doesn't mean they're lost forever"
Same same but different
It’s great cause it shows how empire can go either way. For example. If thrawn was the emperor. I believe the galaxy would have thrived. Becuae the empire was run by a sith it was evil and dark. I believe if thrown had conceived the empire it would have been a possible utopia. The Jedi didnt even research they assumed from the beggining the separatist were 100% evil but they were fighting the empire which in reality was corrupt from conception.
I love what they did with Barriss in this, because at the root of her character Barriss was a healer, she wanted to help people, she cared about everyone, it's why she fell so hard.
She never should have been involved in the Clone Wars, seeing so much pain and dealing with so much indifference over that pain from the jedi who are supposed to be peace keepers and help and protect people broke her spirit.
Barriss never wanted to hurt people, she wasn't a warrior, she wanted to protect people, to help people.
I was hesitant to watch this series because i worried that they'd ruin Barriss, but they did well here, they made her understandable..
I was glad to see that she immediately turned against the Empire, because they are guilty of everything that turned her against the jedi made a thousand times worse.
I just wish there were more episodes.
I was wondering what they’d do with Barris as despite betraying the Jedi she was still in the light. Everything she predicted about the Jedi and Republic came true so I was wondering if she would fight against the new establishment or join it. Glad this wasn’t a simple turning good or evil, it took time for her to see what the new Empire was doing for her to continue the fight
I do think the final Barris episode is a time jump- but not as much as her physical aging implies. The inquisitor looks pretty much the same. Barris is a healer, and we have seen that using the force to heal literally takes away your life force. Rey explains this, and it straight up killed Ben Solo when he used all of his life force to save Rey.
Barriss Offee is definitely coming in person in Ahsoka season 2. There’s no way she isn’t alive.
Grand inquisitor has never looked better! If it was announced all SW media would be animated like this and Bad Batch I think I’d be okay with that
Personally i really enjoyed it.
As usual most star wars fans are taking this waaaay too serious like its a movie or massive project while its suppose to just be a fun little enjoyable series that fills some plot gaps.
Star Wars fans: yes! Let’s see what happens to Barris!
KK: I bet Star Wars fans are dying to know about the Ahsoka bad guys!!
Shittt didn’t realise this dropped, going to have to watch later on!
You can see the steam from Barris's breath stop at the end, so no, she can't be still alive lol
45:50 yes those are tears.... no i just got something on my eye.... well both of them
That's Bo Katan voice on distress she summons Ashoka
Enjoyed it very much
I need a story of Lyn after her experience with Barriss
Greg was right about Barass
How did you guys miss that it was Bo-Katan's voice. Did you not even see the credits of the episode that spells that out for you?
They hadn't got to the credits at that point. No subtitles turned on.
That was actually Bo-Katan, not Ahsoka. I truly recommend you watch with subtitles.
I loved this so much! I’m trying to catch up on Clone Wars as I got into Star Wars late in the game 😕 I am on season 2 right now. Does anyone know of the background episodes for Barris? I looked up some background to try to have an idea of her story but am wanting to learn more. Thanks!
If you're in season 2, you'll see Bariss soon. I would not look up any more info on her backstory else you'll run into spoilers. You'll see Bariss later in Clone Wars, but I would not skip ahead to that. Watch Clone Wars in its intended chronological order.
Gotta say that the Tales of the Empire was quite amazing in its own way! And while I do think some things could’ve been expanded upon (mainly Barriss’s story) I find it hard to dislike how the producers and creators of the story left some things up to the viewers interpretation which allows for more freedom of thinking and ideas WE want to make until whether or not, said characters appear again or not.
So yeah I have to say while Morgan’s story was good in its own way (loved Grievous’s intimidation factor being brought back like in the 2003 animated series), Barriss’s was definitely something I enjoyed more due to how it was left off of. We all already know Morgan passed in canon so they’re mainly filling in some blanks here and there with some developmental stuff, and yet at the end with Barriss? That was more of a mystery and it made everything all the more enjoyable.
But yeah. I also enjoyed your guys’s thoughts too. I had some similar thoughts in mind to MJTessler so it made it SO nice to have such a fellow deep fan of the SW Lore! Loved this and keep it up Rejects of the Dark Side! Lol. 😂
wait wat it came out already 😳amma go download all 6 real quick should be interesting
It’s important to remember that Barris bombed, innocents and then blamed Ashoka for the bombing she’s not a good person. And Disney has a problem with redeeming characters that don’t deserve it like Reeva from Obi Wan
9/10, LOVED THIS
While visually the most impressive animation that Star Wars has put out yet, I cannot lie when I say I was hoping for more from a storytelling perspective. Morgan's stuff was fine, but there wasn't all that much you could do with her character to begin with (having an arc for her in this anthology always felt like a weird choice to me ever since that initial trailer). However, I was SUPER stoked for Barriss' arc. That had a ton of potential, but I was honestly a little disappointed. I was hoping we'd actually see her succumb to being an inquisitor. 2/3 of her arc honestly felt like something that would've fit better in a S2 of Tales of the Jedi.
Maybe I'm in the minority on that, but yeah, Barriss' arc just left me very unsatisfied. Regardless, the animation of this honestly left me speechless. It's so impressive what LucasFilm has done with their ever-evolving post-The Clone Wars animation style. Can't wait to see/hear what's next from the animation team.
I like the touch that the first three episodes are patterned after Yoda dialogue Fear leads to Anger and Anger leads to Hate of course ep.1 the path of fear ep.2 the path of anger ep.3 the path of hate
the planet in the last episode looks like the one from The Last Jedi, if you look closely you see the red sand under a layer of normal sand/snow
So um, I'm just gonna ask this out of the sake of curiosity. But is the Jedi that Barriss & Lyn meet here supposed to be Non-binary?
Not against the idea or anything, just wondering.
Great points in the discussion! I didn't realize the similarity in perspective/setup for the third episodes. Morgan's arc being less about her decisions is interesting, and may actually parallel Lyn in that the feelings driving her were her master. In any case, I do appreciate Morgan more after this story. Barriss' episodes have been growing on me, though I still liked them initially.
I agree in liking this set more than Tales of the Jedi. It really works as a single progression across the six episodes: great character, action, visuals, music, etc.
