[@Zoddlander]

@Drunk3PO Why is she saying "see you in hell, jedi!"? Is there a christian belief in star wars? Have I missed a part where they have a religion with a "Hell"? Is there something in the canon/lore (that they claim is not relevent but also is relevent because its ok when they say so) that explains this? This overpriced fanfiction can't go away fast enough! Sometimes the acting is mid and the music is "ok-ish"! but beyond that the show is almost as badly paced as the Rings of Power with sense of timelines! I'll put this show on the same list as Rebel Moon and Rings of Power as something I'll never watch again! Keep the reviews coming!

Female in general. This is what made Lucas‘s version the masterpieces that they are. His wife helped him tremendously with the writing. The Acolyte has nothing but estrogen written all over it. The terrible execution as well as many other things stems from the female mind to look at everything from an emotional perspective rather than logic. She should’ve got a male to help her balance it in the same way. The last shot w/ the holding hands over a lightsaber was so female. From a logical standpoint of what the Sith are, the foundation in general. It made no sense.

[@MarvelMenace8]

The crystal cracked when the savor was thrown to the floor, she was holding the sabor while killing sol with all her hate. She bled the crystal with lore

[@BertoxolusThePuzzled]

Except that's not how Disney has ever presented this process before. Canonically in Disney era comics you needed to find an isolated place strong in the force to take the crystal out and do a specific Sith ritual to completely crush it's free will and base color through sheer force of will in a battle of attrition that usually took several days of nonstop concentration. It makes no sense for them to just change instantly like that, even when cracked the crystal itself still has a will and actively resists you if you aren't compatible... Thats perhaps the saddest part of all this, they cannot even remember their OWN lore from the last few years ago...

[@bardandbutter]

LOL yes it is. Many Sith believe the proper way to bleed a kyber crystal is to steal one from a Jedi, but you do not have to be a Sith and all you actually need is a crystal to pour all of your anger, fear, contempt, rage, hated to bleed it.

Either he's an idiot, or he's part of the cover up, and by likely making him the former, it really breaks a lot of his character's supposed wisdom. Yes, he can grow and learn, but he should already by fairly wise at this point.

The problem with the lightsaber changing colour "magically" isn't really a problem at all. It's canon. It's called "bleeding" a kyber crystal, essentially corrupting it. So they weren't making anything up there. The main problem with bleeding a crystal is that its difficult. Even Darth Vader himself struggled to do it as the crystal will fight back against the individual. It threw him against a wall and the effort needed by Vader to actually break the "will" of the crystal nearly caused the cave he was in to collapse. But yet again, we get a Mary Sue from Disney who can just do it like that with zero effort, because patriarchy or something idk

They really aren’t clear how it all works… Ahsoka says in the Mandalorian about Grogu that she won’t train him, and says that by not training him his talent will lapse through lack of use. But then you have someone like Sabine who has never really used it her entire life and has very little training. Struggles with the simplest of stuff and then the dam bursts and she can do stuff. Then you have Rey who has never even heard much about the force and then after one mind meld can use jedi mind tricks, and defeat a supposedly skilled individual with the force who’s family is strong in the force and go toe to toe. Luke who was apparently too old to begin training does just fine. It is whatever they want it to be.

@@aaronrodgers9202 perhaps it's easier for some fallen jedi to bleed their crystal. Vader specifically had a hell of alot of conflict inside him and crystal played to that when it fought back. As its partly willpower thing as well, so I would believe a fallen jedi with suffient willpower and hatred could bleed a kyber very easily. But I would there would only be few who could. Geran being one and now Osha but in oshas case it maybe due to her being birth using the vergence of the planet. But that's spectualation at best.

[@coryv5679]

I didn't think it would have gotten worse but it did. They don't even read their own canon. To Bleed a crystal you need to actually Hold onto it and force your will into it. All of your anger and negative emotions get poured into it and it isn't something like I am mad rawr and it turns read. It's a pretty negative thing to force a Light Side crystal to become Dark. When Vader turns his Red there was almost an explosion of dark and light force pretty much fighting one another. The Crystal is pretty much alive with The Force and it doesn't want to go from Light to Dark and it resists. Hence why they call it Bleeding.

Mae survived by getting sucked through a pipe and still doesn't show how she met Qimir or how she got off the planet? They wipe Mae's memory and just leave her to the Jedi instead of taking her with them? Mae doesn't get punished? Showing Yoda at the end. God I felt insulted watching this episode.
