View Quote There's both the strength and the weakness of Ashoka so far. The three central female characters aren't Mary Sues. They have legitimate character development. But the Rat may have screwed up by making this it's own series. Those three characters make far more sense when you think of Ashoka as Rebels S5. Which, if the Rat actually called it that, would completely turn off anybody who didn't watch the other animated series. I'm holding my piece about Baylan's strength in relation to anybody else's. There's a lot going on that I don't completely understand, including whether the Temple Guards were strong Jedi who were on some kind of light duty due to injuries, or whether they were the part of the Jedi version of DMV clerks like the librarian. ("If it's not in the Archives, it doesn't exist" lol). Or how strong the Night sisters were with the Force compared with the Jedi/Sith, or was their witchcraft something completely unrelated, etc. Click To View Spoiler I just had an ugly thought. What if the Rat decides to inflict another hidden Sith lord on us, who's masterminding Thrawn while simultaneously being the apprentice of Palpatine Clone #87? |

View Quote To be fair to Sabine, she's had it rough and it's easy to understand why her character would be how she is.

Add to that, Kanan's death, Ezra's disappearance, and Zeb's leaving, It's easy to see how she'd feel lost and become detached. The only family she truly knew was shattered. I expect it's going to be the low spot for her character and they'll end up pulling her into Mando. Hard not to, especially considering her history with the DarkSaber and being one of the few people skilled enough to wield it. Honestly, that would be the better story path. She serves as a segue to bringing back Ezra, and by extension Thrawn. Ezra teams up with Ahsoka, Jacen becomes a padawan, and Sabine goes off to fight to reclaim Mandalore with Bo-Katan and Din. |

The storyline from Rebels. This show may be title Ahsoka, but as others have pointed out, it's basically another season of Rebels. What I'm saying is she's lost her way. It's a common trope in the Star Wars franchise. A once badass warrior brought low. Having found Ezra, and now having a war to fight she'll either die or be redeemed. Regardless, the upcoming episode is likely a bunch of flashbacks that don't move the story along much. Thrawn foreshadowed this when he asked to know everything about Ahsoka. |

WTB: Glock 17 gen 2. SN CAF 895 Win if you can, lose if you must, but always look good for the crowd. |
My theory is that Baylon has been preparing Shin to be the vessel for Abeloth who is "the Mother" to the Mortis Children.
When he told her he didn't train her as a Jedi, he trained her to be something "more" I'm pretty sure that is what it is. We could get a pretty wild twist, it could be necessary for Thrawn to team up with the Republic to defeat Abeloth. |
