      he's the show MVP for me, I've seen 1-6 and he is really embodying the character, someone at peace with his darkness and power, hidden but also wanting to reveal himself to the galaxy - as well as having the charisma and athleticism to pull it off. I feel like Jacinto has kind of envisioned the best version of this story and is acting it regardless.

    For me combat felt like combining prequels with more practical combat. It is very entertaining, jumpy, quick, but not such lightsaber dancing as prequels and you can feel the raw power that each strike is meant to kill. And characters actually dodge and do practical stuff during combat. Honestly I love this combination.
