Ahsoka Episode 6 BREAKDOWN - Reaction & Review! Spoilers! Easter Eggs, Ending Explained!

[@martinogmckeever38]

Grace with respect Clone wars is not too much of an ask, I guarantee once you start watching it you will love it like so many others. truly some great stories and action..

[@martinogmckeever38]

i should add i know you have a lot of content to watch, discuss and review.. but your followers like me if they are wanting some great star wars stories watch this from the beginning and follow the growth of Filoniverse and Ahsoka from the beginning.. you will not be disappointed

[@Harpie.]

I agree! There is even a guide with the essential Ahsoka episodes or ones that are just essential to the clone wars story! She should really give it a chance because of how highly she speaks of rebels, I feel that she would think the same way of the clone wars

[@markgray5969]

At least the final season of Clone Wars is a must watch! My friend bugged me for 2 years to watch Clone Wars but there was so many episodes is was daunting. Glad I did.

[@jamesblunt908]

There’s even an amazing pre-Bad Batch arc with select episodes that I watch here and there to get me all the feels and excitement

[@RadioactiveLobster]

Every moment Ray Stevenson is on screen is both incredible and so sad at the same time. He has such a presence and commands every scene and piece of dialogue he has that it is crushing that we know we will not be getting anymore of him.

The last episode wasn’t just a look into the past 🙄. It was necessary for Ahsoka’s character development

[@paulernst1982]

It was absolutely not necessary. What did the flashbacks accomplish??? Nothing.

[@olanv7131]

​@@paulernst1982 Anakin walked her through certain key memories of her past, so she could understand her purpose, her will and overcome her guilt. Ever since the aftermath of Order 66 and Anakin's fall, Ahsoka has been plagued with a deep sense of guilt, shame and regret, even after they defeated the Empire. It's been stalling her from becoming a wholesome person and achieve her full potential. Anakin helped her overcome that and get closure. It was absolutely necessary. In fact, it's one of the most important character moments of the entire saga. Not to mention seeing Anakin (the main character in Star Wars), now acting as One with the Force.

[@masonguthrie1257]

Nup - wasn't a fan either. Absolutely nothing interesting is happening for non-Rebels viewers.

[@e3vL1]

23:33 think theyre referencing Japanese culture with kintugi where they repair broken part (mostly pottery) with gold. Its displayed in some of the storm troppers as well as the ship. One storm trooper even use red wizard garbs to repair broken armor

[@youfrancis]

Actually, I felt that Thrawn (albeit somewhat reminiscent of a Blue Elon) was presented rather strikingly. In fact, without much explanation: all of these imperials are extremely interesting. I'm particularly enamored with the East meets West motif; these sort of ravaged and scavenged Romano-Japanese stormtroopers--a Kintsugi-Legion, if you will.

[@heero75]

I don't mind Thrawn "bigger" look, he is much older then he was in Rebels. In the books he fought with Anakin in the Clone Wars as basically a Captain in the his people's navy so he is likely just over 70 or so now and while we don't know how long the Chiss (his people) live we can assume he is actually getting up there in years.

[@kevinfraser7815]

This show has totally expanded the Star Wars universe, and leaves me wanting even more. Wonder how they’re going to conclude the season… Wouldn’t mind a cliffhanger

[@Sanj1n]

I love that Witches come from a different galaxy since their magic is very strange to force users in the known galaxy.

[@metallicnole4514]

A cliffhanger wouldn't make sense since there's no plans officially announced for a second season. You can set up something for the future, but the story needs a conclusion.

I think having the guy who voiced Thrawn playing Thrawn is one of the greatest decisions in this show, even though he looks a bit different its like he just leaped out of Rebel's to live action. He delivers his lines so good.

[@safirestudio]

How can anyone who has watched star wars not have an emotional reaction to Anakin returning? Hmm interesting

[@icyvolts]

Because people are different and can form different opinions about stuff they like…

[@DeeDeeDeeeee]

Tbh if you’ve just seen the prequels, you wouldn’t have that much of a reaction. Let’s be real Anakin was entirely elevated as a character by Clone Wars.

[@Gobblimarie]

[@bryanferratt6598]

[@JosephReviewsFilm]

Also I think Thrawn is coming back because he’s gonna be the villain of the the Filoni Star Wars movie, it’s gonna take Din, Grogu, Ahsoka, The Rebels Crew, The Skeleton Crew guys, The New Republic Army, Bo and the Mandelorians, and Boba Fett and his team to defeat Thrawn.

[@CoryGasaway]

Yep. I've been saying that for months. And Luke and Leia will be in the mix. No doubt

So basically endgame but in Star Wars

[@dw.dunphy]

But why are none of these characters even mentioned in the Sequel Trilogy (other than the real-world business side where none of these characters were even created or meant to interact in any way)? This is the big conundrum. The Filoniverse makes little to no sense in the same timeline as the Sequel Trilogy, where all these characters have nothing to do with any of it and are, at worst, dead, gone, and long forgotten...

[@cedric13]

@@dw.dunphy Hey, the entire universe seemed to think the Jedi were legend or never existed and there were 100's of them less than 20 years before

[@Thewilliamsrodriguez]

Thrawn is definitely escaping. And this show will hopefully be getting a second season if the Studios pay their writers and actors fairly and not engage with AI. Story needs more than 1 season.

[@CriticsCupofficial]

They could save the story for the movie

[@snuffles504]

Yeah I think the movie is gonna be the "second season."

[@ahsokafan2319]

Grace, I don’t appreciate the total dismissing of Clone Wars. It is the original animated show, most definitely on par with Rebels, and you can absolutely watch it by only watching the main story episodes. That removes a significant amount of episodes from all seven seasons. It makes sense that you loved Rebels, as you only watched the non-filler episodes, so I seriously encourage you to give Clone Wars a shot. The story may be moving forwards in terms of the timeline, but the characters certainly aren’t, and Ahsoka is and will be a major player going forward, and having not watched the show that introduced her and featured most of her character development totally ruins your understanding and appreciation of the character and what Rosario Dawson is doing with it now.

[@darthsidious47]

Morgan's ship and the Eye of Sion to me feel very Old Republic. The eye of Sion might have it's name from the ancient Sith lord Darth Sion who could not die. He was physically holding himself together with the force to keep himself alive. He was the lord of pain. The other 2 notable sith that were loosely allied with him were Darth Traya who was a master manipulator, and Darth Nihilus who was the lord of Hunger. His physical body had been destroyed and he survived by draining the life out of entire planets and beings. I actually don't mind Thrawn's look. I didn't think he looked amazing in the trailer, but he looked better here. In the timeline he is supposed to be about 10 years older than when we last saw him in Rebels.

[@luishoraciohernandez4240]

The fact that you saw and enjoyed one of the animated shows. Clone Wars, Rebels or Bad Batch, that makes you 100% a Filoni fan. I have a friend that saw only 1 of 3 animated shows and love both Mandalorian and Ahsoka, some episodes not so much but likes the path these shows are taking. So I think that even if you see one of those shows and like it, you are without a doubt a Filoni fan. And it’s understandable to not see every piece of Star Wars content because even if I love Clone Wars, I get it Can be too much. And even more so if you add Rebels and Bad Batch. So in my opinion, any animated show fan supports these live action shows one way or another

[@beadragon1048]

Grace, considering how slow it is right now, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND at least watching the last short season of The Clone Wars. It’s incredible start to finish and it will enhance the Ahsoka experience, especially with Anakins appearance in the last episode. If that’s too much then watch the last 4 episodes of the finale season. I was putting it off at first too but I ended up watching the entire thing and I’m so glad that I did. You will come to appreciate the complexity of Ahsokas relationship with her master and it will show you the most incredible lightsaber battle in animation ever! Ahsoka vs. Maul is jaw dropping! Last it actually illustrates Anikins turn to the dark side from a different perspective. It will rip your heart out in the last episode as it connects so many storylines but you will really appreciate how everything ties together now. I really hope you treat yourself and take my advice! Lol 🙏🤓

[@DannyBoydPhoto]

If she hadn’t seen Ezra in 10 years, why do they hug each other like coworkers who barely know each other? This show is insufferable to me.

[@BostonChattanooga]

@@DannyBoydPhoto Personally, I feel not every grand meeting has to be some big dramatic moment. I’ve had a situation where I hadn’t seen a friend in over 12 years and when we saw each other again we didn’t dramatically run up to each other and embrace. We laughed, roasted each other and then hugged. It was nice just absorb each other’s energies like no time had passed at all. That’s the same vibe I got from Ezra and Sabine. They were never touchy touchy like that in the show anyways so to me that felt like the characters from Rebels, even tho it’s been a decade, no time had passed for them at all. But I understand if you wanted to see an epic emotional return it’s “disappointing”/ low energy but the smile on my face was huge when Ezra appeared.

[@SVGNATION]

Grace, the witches aren’t new, they are from Clone Wars and were very prominent. Daphamere is where darth Maul is from. They helped heal him and also one of their sisters was Dooku’s apprentice. These witches are known for bringing spirits back from the dead. Those containers being loaded on Thran’s ship are most likely undead troopers or some dead males or females of their own. So this episode was actually a 50/50 mix of Clone wars and Rebels. If you haven’t watched Clone Wars you wouldn’t know this so you get a pass. Lol

[@suitemoviethemes]

9:36 “I think it’s sort of beneath Star Wars to borrow so heavily from another franchise”… Dune

[@Aussie27Legend]

The last thing Ezra says to Sabine in Rebels is “I’m counting on you" and the first thing he says when he sees her again is “I knew I could count on you". Symmetry is nice.

[@danielperoni9042]

From what I understand it’s been 11 years since Ezra and Sabine have seen each other, and I felt their initial reaction to seeing each other was somewhat underwhelming considering what they supposedly mean to each other. Aside from that I really enjoyed this episode and more than anything else really want to know what Baylan is planning. Thanks for the review Grace

[@jjoploo]

I agree! Sabine repeatedly bringing up her deal to be reunited with Ezra, and she barely smiled when she saw him! I know Sabine wasn’t too emotional in Rebels, but I assumed at the very least she would deflect emotion with a joke about how tall Ezra got- anything!

This series has been outstanding

[@dafttool]

Ezra has been the missing piece this show has needed all along. When the credits rolled, I was like “damn, it’s already over.” I just didn’t want the scene to end, which is a sign they were doing something right with the storytelling. Not all cliffhangers have to involve peril; some can be you just wanting to see more of what’s going to happen next. And it was nice writing with Ezra basically wondering aloud when they would get around to him. The fans were wondering that too. “How long are you going to leave me hanging out in the wilderness, Sabine?”

[@Beatness121]

The costuming department really did Lars Mikkelsen dirty this episode. I get that they wanted it to be the same outfit that he disappeared in, but surely they could've adjusted it to make it a little more flattering

[@natanicole1306]

I live the OT, the prequels, and Clone Wars and Rebels, I also read the Timothy Zan trilogy when it was originally released. I enjoyed the Mandolorian as a side story but Ahsoka has everything that makes Star Wars … Star Wars. Filoni honors George Lucas’s vision/ the lore and moves Star Wars forward. I loved both 5 and 6. I loved 5 more because the sequels ruined Anakin as the chosen one and Dave Filoni has found a way to suggest Anakin is still the chosen one in a even bigger way. Sabine and the turtle like creatures brought back vibes of when Leia meets the Ewoks.

[@iamaustinpierce]

I think you’d be a little hard pressed to find Rebels fans who aren’t Clone Wars fans. Also, Clone Wars had way better saber fights than Rebels although Rebels is really good too

First. This is More LOTR than GOT still. Second. Thrawn’s army seems more dead than alive, built by the Witches. Third. Ezera doesn’t seem to be hiding, it feels like a mutual agreement between him and the Witches.

[@noname-bk7bc]

You should watch the night sister episodes of clone wars and it might help with the coffins. But I think we are going to find that it's not Thrawn who is going to be the villian, it's whatever Thrawn and the Night Sisters are running from and Baylan wants to find

Giant circular Hyperdrive ring reminded me of giant, spherical Death Star. Yeah, not sure about your view that this is something we haven't seen before. Also, in the Prequels Obi-wan attached his Jedi starfighter to a hyperdrive ring to travel at lightspeed between worlds. So this is just a bigger version of that.

It's interesting how this show is the opposite of the sequels; Sabine can't just 'let the Force in', and needs discipline and training, strong focus on mentors and how their wisdom needs to be respected, hyperspace rams aren't a thing, when you find a long lost Jedi, he doesn't tell you to go away. Not to mention much more emphasis on monsters and creatures like a proper myth, and actually acknowledging Anakin and the prequels. And new elements (for the casual fans) like Nightsisters and fallen Jedi, along with exploring what the New Republic is, instead of just annihilating it.

The Nielsen numbers will let us know how "popular" this show is for the general audiences. If this is "moving forward" then the entire franchise has problems.

You know it's saying something when my favorite episode of Ahsoka is the on that barely has any Ahsoka in it.

[@CoryGasaway]

Did you just say you hope Anakin doesn't come back??? If so, you just don't get Star Wars. That's the most ridiculous comment ever, and I can assure you that you're going to get more Anakin. But you thought episode 5 was a bust when it was the best Star Wars content since the animated series. And the best live action episode to date.

Hey Grace. Great review. I feel like they are borrowing from Lord of the Rings moreso than Game of Thrones. Ahsoka the white for example. However, Game of Thrones in its turn borrowed from LOTR, so tomato, tomato. I am curious what Baylan is seeking in this stories equivalent of Mount Doom and will he reveal a Sauron-type character who is the real bad guy. Can’t wait for next week! Really enjoying the show.

[@lucianstanca3606]

why can't they be original like Lucas? because the writers (Filoni and Co) are limited, and all they can do is copy successful stories, they have like no imagination, and write stupid content just to create a weak story

Spot on

Grace Clone Wars is the best Star Wars ever put to screen. Rebels comes nowhere close. Also, the legends books did Thrawn way better than Disney has done him so far. You should get on that train instead But I guess there's no money to be made there, is there?

[@piusdoe8984]

The architecture design was really good. Not just the ship but all the monoliths sticking out from the ground.

[@axel5811]

How have you seen rebels and bad batch but not clone wars?!?!

[@adamhaasse2768]

Thanks

[@BeyondTheTrailer]

That's very kind of you, Adam!

[@adamhaasse2768]

My pleasure . I get so much great information and enjoyment from your channel ❤

[@dariopos]

Clone wars is better than Rebels, for me it’s the best Star Wars, it makes Anakin’s transformation heavier and more painful after seeing seven seasons of him interacting with Obiwan and Ahsoka

[@Rockstar-bq5fm]

Great Villains make such a difference and everyone really needs to give Filoni credit with his Villains. There actually a threat and have allure to them unlike the sequel movies. If Kylo Ren wasn’t played by Adam Driver the character would of fell flat on his face. Because he did absolutely freaking nothing to deserve the rep and cool factor

[@KaiInMotion]

*"This close to making out with a snail"* is a new level of bad day to be having lol, gonna need to work that one intomy vocabulary

[@kaibroszeit2174]

Seeing Thrawn In Live Action was By far the biggest thing for me. I waited 30 years for this. Dont forget the Thrawn Trilogie books are maybe the Most beloved books in Star Wars history.

[@paulycolumbus9131]

A lot of great STAR WARS conversations here in this series! Thank you, GRACE! 🙂

[@MisterBobGoodDeal]

Actually, real world politics is sometimes VERY cyclical. I’m from France and the French political regimes from the Revolution (1789) to the end of the 19th century were : Monarchy > Republic > Empire > Monarchy > Republic > Empire > Republic. This unstability lasted 80 years and was caused by the strong opposition between republicans, monarchists and "bonapartists" (supporters of Napoleon). Come to think of it, this is quite similar to politics in the Star Wars universe!

[@celebfantastiq]

How can you not watch clone wars since that is Ahsoka origins? Ahsoka barely had anything to do with Rebels.

[@IshmaelSheo]

"The Bad Batch" was introduced to us in the first episode of the seventh season of Star Wars: The Clone Wars.

[@TheRumblewagon]

Grace, Star Wars already borrowed from DUNE way back in the first movie in 1977. DUNE is a space opera fantasy.

[@subtlejester]

Uh yeah Star Wars has always pulled inspiration from other sources. That is kind of a Star Wars thing... Dune (very heavy), Akira Kurosawa, etc
