@@robertjv well most of them were pretty trashy in the 2nd season but out of the ones in that season i liked the seventh sister the most right after The Grand Inquisitor. but at least they made up for it in the 3rd and 4th season by giving us Grand Admiral Thrawn
I like how it's made clear he uses makashi. The way he constantly swipes his lightsaber to shrug the blade aside then advance, as well as the thrusting lunge are both staples of that form. Not to mention his footwork, advancing in a line back and forth, his opening stance, and the way his arm "orbits" his body, blocking attacks fluidly to uphold the form's grace.
@@mkaiming6913 Well to be fair he only had maybe 1-2 months of practice on soresu and then he had to hide him being a jedi for 15 years. So i dont blame him
lightsaber fight difficulty -youngling: the sequel trilogy -padawan: the original trilogy -Jedi: the prequel trilogy -Jedi master: Anakin vs obi wan -what are you: animated shows
what i love about his is how precise and elegant he is (similar to Dooku and Ghirahim from Zelda Skyward Sword) and he is clearly using form II and he only uses the double bladed mechanism when he really needs to
Well kanan wasn’t a full blown Jedi yet, later on in the series he does become a Jedi knight, but now is not. Also kanan has a blaster because he is with the rebellion and rebels have blasters. AND I bet kanan doesn’t even know Jedi don’t carry blasters. Not trying to be mean but just sayin.
Well Jedi Padawans are still Jedi? They are Jedi in training but still Jedi? Ashoka has been referred to as a Jedi a bunch of times but she still never made it to Knight
honeslty i think the inquisators double sided light sabers are op with the spinning it covers all the weaknesess the normal double sided lightsaber has and it can lead to some pretty overwhelming attacks imo the design is ingenious
Funny enough, the spinning feature is actually to compensate for lack of skill. Barring the Grand Inquisitor, most of them wouldn't be able to stand up to a Padawan who stayed in practice, Obi-Wan as he was in Phantom Menace or Anakin in Attack of the Clones would've wiped the floor with most inquisitors.
@@rosariocrimson grand inquisitor was a Jedi knight. A guard of the Jedi temple. He was very skilled. Obi wan, anakin, Ashoka were on another level. Very few were that strong.
How it comes, the Grand Inquisitor, a secondary cartoon character, has more soul, acting talent and earned more respect, then any force user in whole movie sequel trilogy?
@@sparkingred66 never give me atleast 5 good reasons why the sequels are good cause I watched the sequels atleast 3 times throughout the years and I still think there shit
It's not actually Vader's theme, it's the Empire's theme in general. It's just mostly played for Vader, so it's become "Vader's theme" in the mind of the general population.
His Fighting Form reminds me a lot of Form II and Form VI, a mixture of both, the ones Dooku and Maul used respectively. Quite obviously being trained to fight Jedi in 1-1 combat, form II is the best choice. Very elegant and playful, exhausting your enemies but also allowing the user to just injur the opponent, Form II. Very acrobatic and aggressive for multiple foes and the powerful strikes that need your enemy on guard constantly, physically challenging them, Form VI.
Honestly someone of his skill level should have seen that coming. And how good he is with Makashi is great. I’m just mad they killed off my favorite character.
I wonder why he suicided in the end, he feared Vader so much? I mean he Vader had like his family or some other leverage over him, but man if it was only his pride that was lame.
He feared Vader so much that he'd rather kill himself than even attempt to face his wrath. Vader in the comics was the one who trained up the Inquisitors, and he was the one who also sliced off their various limbs to teach them a lesson of loss, trying to push them to more offensive forms. I don't know about you but if I had a boss that'd cut off his students limbs without hesitation I would NOT want to see what'd he do to someone who failed him like the Grand Inquisitor did.
@@DrMostlySane hmmm maybe the fear of the torture could be a good motivation I guess. Still he could just run away and hide, not like a few stormtroopers could stop him.
@@MrFantocan Vader had just spent the last 20ish years successfully hunting down Jedi and killing them. The Grand Inquisitor knew, from experience, he couldn't escape. Vader would get him, and it would be worse than death. And funnily enough, in a recent comic, Vader actually managed to bring the Grand Inquisitors soul back and force him into (painful) service again. So, in the end, not even death was an escape.
Vader is so wrathful and frightening that death is preferable We all seen what he did rewarding Imperial officers for failure, imagine what he would have done to the Grand Inquisitor In fact when they first met, the Grand Inquisitor witnessed Vader maiming each and everyone of the other Inquisitors in training fights In the end Not even death allowed the Grand Inquisitor to escape Vader, as he revived his spirit to haunt a Jedi Temple for all eternity In fact the Inquisitor’s spirit met and dueled Luke, and Luke won, the Inquisitor asked Vader for release, instead Vader forced the Inquisitor to continue denying him rest The Inquisitor knew what Vader was capable of, and not even death allowed him to escape the Dark Lord’s wrath That’s why he commit suicide then
The force illusion was obviously one here's why: The Grand Inquisitor had so much honor that he would only use both of his lightsabers blades if 2 people were fighting him or if 1 had 2 lightsabers.
@@naseemweathers8358 Yeah, not a chance, Maul was a true Sith at one point, his power level beyond that of any inquisitor, only below Dooku, Vader and Sidious.
It's the thiconess. Or lack thereof. They look like toothpicks in Rebels. Other than that, and the fact it wasn't allowed to grow with its audience, I have no real problems with it.
Early Clone Wars didn't actually have that great of animation. It didn't start getting good until like 3-4 seasons in. Honestly, the final fight in this video has better animation than probably 70% of clone wars granted this is probably some of the best animation in all of Rebels.

one thing I will never forgive rebels for is killing off the grand inquistor so fast
And then we got the shitty ones in the following seasons

5:25 The way that The Grand Inquisitor ignites his lightsaber here just screams badass.

Yeah! i think it's weird though that he said Kanan uses Soresu when Kanan is soo not defensive in his style
Yeah ikr!
@@mkaiming6913 Well to be fair he only had maybe 1-2 months of practice on soresu and then he had to hide him being a jedi for 15 years. So i dont blame him
That and he always uses one hand in most of the start of the duelslike he's fencing.
That is so cool how the grand inquisitor uses the fighting style of Dooku wow Canin uses the fighting style of Obi-Wan Kenobi
Bad ass Inquisitor,love the look of his caracter and everithing about him
100% he is my favorite villain from rebels the way he acts is like he does not have a master he does what he wants when he wants
Charming, polite villains are truly elite👑
Especially with a voice like his
I can't believe the actor who played Lucius Malfoy in Harry Potter voices the Grand Inquisitor
And Captain Hook from the 2003 Peter Pan.
@@evanwilson2465 omg I loved that film, and i loved his look as Captain Hook (i have such a huge crush on this man)
Not to mention Zhao from Avatar the Last Airbender.
And Skekso The Emperor in The Dark Crystal Age Of Resistance.
@@BrianLyons315 Wait, really? How did I not realize that?

If I learned anything from Star Wars, is that nobody ever dies from falling.

Me: Understandable, Have A Nice Day🙂

His theme remains badass
Grand inquisitor was just training both of them.
honeslty i think the inquisators double sided light sabers are op with the spinning it covers all the weaknesess the normal double sided lightsaber has and it can lead to some pretty overwhelming attacks imo the design is ingenious

Also form 7 he makes use of very wild swings Staccato swings a very Juyo type thing maul also use it say one-handed Juyo style
Maybe form 4
Honestly someone of his skill level should have seen that coming. And how good he is with Makashi is great. I’m just mad they killed off my favorite character.
100% he was the best of the inquisitors it’s too bad he died in season two I wish he would’ve been the main villain for all seasons of rebels
He also is great with juyo
Makashi ataru, niman and of course juyo
He should have been the main villain instead he’s so badass and with Vader holy shit
100% agree he was the best of the inquisitors
look at the grand inq's expressions at 3:00 I nearly died of laughter
0:49 obiwan: “oh I don’t think so”
IRONIC
Only a Sith deals in absolutes.
We need this guy not the egghead in the new Kenobi trailer
3:00
Something ... about those faces he draws.
All I think of that was taunting
I wish this was clone wars animation
3:12 this PERFECTLY shows why the spinning sabers are op
The inquisitor looks scary similar to the son 😬
As cool as he was, Rebels really needs to learn how to make the Empire look like a serious threat.
