Crosshair had one of the craziest arcs in all of Star Wars. “Loyalty means everything to the clones.”

[@clankers8929]

Rampart: "Clone loyalty doesn't seem to be as advertised anymore. Funny isn't it, how these clones around you, keep disappearing." This banter from the vice admiral had a huge effect on Crosshair, it cut very, very deep. You just feel it when watching the scene. Incredible episode by the way.

[@thevisibleconfusionist1784]

@@clankers8929 very much so!

[@clankers8929]

Yes apparently *Loyalty* means a lot to our Cross as well. Why it stung so very much, when he was left by our Boys on Kamino (first episode, AFTERMATH)

[@SamCrecco1]

Mayday and his squad deserved so much better.

[@nastyfyme]

Just like the rest of these great men.

[@milestaylor-charlemagne6311]

I agree! Mayday truly was Crosshair's Angel! We thank you Mayday l for helping Crosshair coming to his senses and returning him to where he belongs.

[@clankers8929]

Yes indeed. Our Mayday was the absolute best Clone. Really brought the best out of my boy Crosshair. Selfless, loyal & dedicated but no push over. Mayday didn't take any talk back when it came to the likes of Lieutenant Nolan. That is something we have NEVER seen in TCW or BB. I respect him for this so much as well, great personality. True loss in every way 😢💔💔 Really brought the best out of my boy Crosshair ❤

[@noahlonaker2668]

All of the clones did… I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again as tragic as anakin’s fate was he CHOSE it, the clones never had a choice.

[@kingmusic3617]

They all deserved better than what they got......so many troopers...gone...

[@TheWarmachine375]

I'm glad Crosshair didn't forget Mayday and that he's gonna fight The Empire that disrespected Clones even if it would be a Forgone Conclusion of their fate not ending well.

[@dezzybarrie]

I kinda hope he does too, but it seems like there's gonna have to be more character development needing to happen. Like he'll have to overcome it himself because it's all "mental" or yeah he'll accept azi to check on him

[@OXY187]

Mayday saved his life by pushing him away.

[@CC-1004Gree]

This beautifully showed Crosshair's journey. Hopefully AZI fixes his hand

[@SX41799]

He will likely die before thats gonna happen. Just like Tech didn't get to know Phee better

[@indianajones4321]

“Sometimes in war it’s hard to be the one that survives” That lines goes harder than most fans might think

[@clankers8929]

Commander Cody 👍

[@ENDOPRIME5745]

Even in our reality

[@jonathan4158]

If we saw Mayday in the Clone Wars, we would've know more about him.

[@chasecreamer727]

True. Even then, their will be people we meet for a short while that can leave a big impression on you. As Mayday did. Someone who will have your back and can relate to.

[@BalletStrong-cl6cb]

I've had this theory for a while that makes Mayday's death much more sad. During his and Crosshair's perilous walk back to the Barton IV outpost, Mayday knew that Nolan would not give him medical supplies, so he hung in there before finally dying near the liutenant to help Crosshair open his eyes.

[@jamesbellefeuille2926]

Let's stick with this theory.

[@MrTragedious986]

For a one off clone, he made a lot of impact on Crosshair.

[@ДенисПрокопенко-п3ы]

Mayday is great, he helped Crosshier understand that the empire doesn't care about clones, that's why I like clones

[@clankers8929]

Indeed. I knew it would take something pretty severe to bring our boy Cross back from the brink..

[@MatthewK122]

Wish he mentioned to bad batch mission with Cody and Mayday

[@Ewan212th]

Very beautiful edit. Love what the recent episode added to crosshair's character development. Got goosebumps when he walked out of the shuttle in his old armor

[@ДенисПрокопенко-п3ы]

I like his old armor

[@reesrodriguez4146]

If it wasn’t for mayday crosshair would have been lost forever

[@AnakinSkywalker-qe2rk]

Mayday was the first reg chrosshair liked besides Cody

[@Jenkinsmum]

Crosshair is quite a complex character. He must spend every sleeping time self-reflecting trying to figure out where he belongs and what his true purpose is. On the positive side he does value human life.

[@TimDaco]

Crosshair has One of the most Incredible Character Arcs I've ever seen!!!

[@TheJklay]

Crazy how the animation has improved even from clone wars season 7

[@ivandwyer5225]

I like how crosshairs said all that stuff about echo and after the mission Rex was like “those are the best troopers ive ever served with”

[@chamtheman551]

I totally forgot about Mayday! The second I saw him I suddenly had a wave of chills down my spine like.... damn, he was a real one lungs none other

[@clankers8929]

Tears when Crosshair found his Commander's helmet. This episode was terribly deep ❤💔😢

[@clankers8929]

He's a deep character, doesn't matter that the series is animated. Brought back those pesky stomach knots when the Mayday theme began. I couldn't help but tear up when I saw Crosshair's *genuine pain & longing for his fallen friend.* He was overwhelmed by the fact that he didn't dream he would end up back on Barton, after all that transpired. How very devastating. It all came to the surface when Hunter confronted Cross, he just couldn't hold back any longer. (He needs to tell Hunter *why* he killed Nolan however. I *need* to see this.)

[@MyToastyToast]

It’s wild how far Bad Batch has pushed TCW’s animation style. The first few seconds of the video showing season 7 scenes look dated (still look good) despite being recent. The lighting, the details and textures, they’ve really gone above and beyond in the BB. I wish TCW could be re-animated

[@milestaylor-charlemagne6311]

Awesome and touching video! Wish we learnt more about Mayday; he was cool and he truly was Crosshair's Angel, reminding him of what the Clones stand for, and that's what made Crosshair return to his brothers and seeing Crosshair never forgetting him was touching and the music on that scene was emotional and touching. You did a good job with this video! Welcome back Crosshair!

[@algordo1997]

The new episodes of Bad Batch made me realize something. Back in S7 of the clone wars, anakin mentioned something about liyslty meani g everything tona clone trooper. Crosshair is an example of loyalty meaning something, something to him. After Hunter sparred the padawan aka Kanan Jarrus, he felt betrayed when his leader prevented him from killing a target during order 66. I feel that Crosshair saw loyalty as a safe space. When that is threatened or shattered, Crosshair took it hard and took his loyalty to the empire as an excuse and only link to that subject left. Unfortunately, in S2, he was dead wrong.

[@walkerlamebrain]

We probably won't get a clone rebellion bcoz we know the clones won't succeed in overthrowing the empire. But we will most likely see TBB, Rex, Howzer, Echo, Gregor, Nemec, Fireball, etc attempt to infiltrate tantiss, rescue & hopefully succeed in escaping with all their surviving brothers. I'd like to see the clones free the zillo + all other wildlife/monsters hemlock's been messing with. They serve as distraction while the clones execute their rescue mission. Then they destroy the entire evil science facility = decimating palpi's obsession to live & rule forever via cloning. I think maybe this will be the clones lasting legacy. Then the zillo or any other weaponized wildlife catch hemlock & eat him slowly. His death has to be slow & painful so he feels what the clones felt while totured them (I'm certain many were tortured to death). Then, Sidious loses all the cloning knowledge & technology with the annihilation of tantiss. Sweet poetic justice for the clones + they ensure palpi's defeat bcoz decades later, in the ST, his sith eternal still unable to provide him with a viable clone body.

[@CommanderScout]

Can you please do a tutorial on how you animate/draw your clones for your animations?

[@clankers8929]

Oh my Goodness Nicholas, beautiful, moving & extremely impactful vid here, Thank You Friend! Best edit ever. And I've always said that Crosshair's actions, speak a lot louder than his words.. (I believe Omega, Commanders Cody & our amazing Mayday, all had some part that played heavily in our Cross coming back from the brink.)

[@gregmirtenns9430]

Man, Crosshair sure has come a long way.

[@Lovec_Demonu]

Crosshair's character evolution is the main reason i love his character + his voice sounds like voice of Vergil from Devil may cry, who has simmilar character evolution.

[@PlasmaCraft829]

Crosshair pushed a nerve with rex

[@Riborg563]

Could you make a video on a topic that will relate to the entire history of Star Wars, about the entire verse of Star Wars. They would tell about little-known characters such as Wutzek, Nakhash (if I spelled his name correctly), Abelot and the celestials. I would really like to know more about them.

[@Jeksignup49]

o7 and RIP to Mayday and his squad!

[@jedimasterboltsproductions6433]

This made me tear up man!
