Asajj Ventress Returns | Star Wars The Bad Batch | Season 3 Episode 9 | Disney+

[@TheWarmachine375]

0:33 Ironic that Bad Batch never heard of Ventress, one of the Separatist commanders who had clashed with the Jedi a lot during The Clone Wars.

[@Holidaypunch1]

Maybe has something to do with the fact that they were made quite late into the war, when Ventress was already gone.

[@_ssc__]

did you not see the episode

[@GonzaloAhumadaCastro-jr5sj]

They did hear, but that doesn't mean they know her face (they didn't, that's why they had to see the republic archive)

[@alixvalove]

They had heard of her, that's what made them check the archives.

[@DiarBerisha-jv8wq]

They have been knowing it, but couldn't confirm it. During the episode where Asajj Ventress has been testing Omega, Hunter has received from Crosshair the former Republic wanted war criminals database and she was one of them. This has confirmed their suspisions about her. However, things shift during the Episode about Ventress

[@Darth_Mornabin]

@@whateverwhatever4476Yes, Filoni isn’t involved with Bad Batch for the most part. But he is still president of Lucasfilm animation. I can imagine he ordered the writers from Bad Batch to bring Ventress back, so Filoni can put her in a live action show. (Mandalorian, Ahsoka or Skeleton Crew.)

[@whateverwhatever4476]

@@Darth_Mornabin I don't think so, I'm pretty sure this is building off of how at the end of the dark disciple, it's heavily implied she's still alive so it's building off that. I do hope if Quinlan does show up they show him in better favor then in TCW since Filoni did want to but Lucas didn't for some reason so he backed down

same reason why maul didnt die after dying like 5 times lol yet you dont see anyone complaining about maul

Just goes to show, the word “canon” is meaningless because they are just going to s*** on it whenever they like. To think if they wanted more Ventress they could have just made clone wars episodes and they would have been infinitely better.

[@Immortan84king]

I didn't think I would see Asajj Ventress again in this series.

[@Photography_World_Channe-cd3zw]

I believe that Omega, because she saw how Ventress was using the force, will imitate it in the next episodes and do it herself. Just like she does and did with the stuff that the squad does. She is a fast learner and a copy-cat. Would make sense in terms of how the series was going on so far. And then...I guess she will need to find a teacher? If she makes it out alive though? A follow up series about her and Ventress going on for missions and training? As a means to protect her brothers from the empire? Like.....the squad is no threat to the empire. Ventress is no joke, she has fought against Dooku, Anakin, Obiwan, Savage, Maul, several clone-squads, arc-units, Grievous, Ahsoka.......and either won, was about to win, or she lost, or was about to lose....but every time, she has put up alot of a fight. And all or majority of those that she fought against are way stronger than the Bad Batch by themselves. It would have been a disgrace if Disney would have made her lose against them, but here, they did it right: She was holding back. If she wanted, she could have killed them very fast. But I kinda still expected more from them....but not much more, just slightly more. Like: Wrecker is strong, but so was Savage. Hunter has awarness, but so do Jedi. Crosshair is tactical and precize, but so was Dooku and many others as well. Like, the squad did not had anything on their side fightwise that Ventress hasn't already dealt with on a way stronger and way larger scale. Actually, that they believed that they had a chance is ridiculous, but still, I kinda rooted for them.

[@moonquartzs]

She does enjoy doing meditation like Gungi. If she accidentally discovers it, then it's pretty much doom for the Bad Batch if she continues to stay with them.

[@elderliddle2733]

For those who don’t know: The idea of cloning a Force Sensitive goes all the way back to the Thrawn Trilogy in legends, and again with X1 and X2, and again in The Force Unleashed 2. As far as I’m aware there have only been 7 successful attempts. Jorus C’abyoth, X1, X2, Lu’uke Skywalker, the Vader Imposter, Starkiller’s clone, and the Palpatine clones in Dark Empire.

[@inaminayo5327]

Okay I get the annoyance with people being unable to stay dead and that's a valid criticism but... Ventress never actually died, did she? Last I remember she worked with young Boba Fett in that one TCW episode and we hadn't seen anything from her since. If you want to gripe and groan about Palpatine in RoS, Thrawn coming back in Ahsoka, or Cad Bane probably surviving BoBF, I get that. But Ventress was just a character that had an open-ended story arc. Unless I missed something, using her in The Bad Batch is no different than using Rex or Fennic. It's just a legacy character that happens to be alive at the time, right?

[@AlphaOmega804]
