Ahsoka | 1x1 Part One: Master and Apprentice | Reaction / Commentary

WOO! Exciting day, we are starting the Ahsoka series! DISCLAIMER: I know my season 3 Mandalorian episodes are still coming out on KZbin, but I am 4 weeks ahead on Patreon so I have finished that season by now. Thought I would start posting Ahsoka while the episodes are coming out since it's such a rare opportunity for me to be able to do so!

Ezra actually gave his lightsaber to Chopper. Chopper then gave it to Sabnie as they were escaping (which was probably Ezra's plan but we don't know that for sure).

She probably said no to Grogu bc by that time she had already walked away from Sabine and given up on being a master. She was scared to repeat her mistake and she also isn’t really officially a Jedi again.

Agree. I think she walked away from Sabine bc Sabine can not let go of Ezra. Too attached.

[@kanekiken3540]

Baylan Skoll and Shin Hati are so-called Dark Jedi or fallen Jedi and the lightsaber color is more orange and not red. They are in no way comparable to a Sith Lord and his apprentice, since the motivations are very different.

[@little-wytch]

Baylon and Shin's lightsabers are not red, they are orange. Dave Filoni was VERY explicit about that when asked lol. That wasn't Ezra's bunk, that was Sabine's bunk while she was Ahsoka's padawan. Sabine being Force Sensitive was hinted at all through Rebels, from her very first intro in the short titled "Art Attack." It's just that the signs were very subtle, often hidden by her training as a Mandalorian, and also often overshadowed by Ezra's training because he used the Force much more in order to survive as a kid on the streets of Lothal. That ending though... now we know why it was a two-episode premier lol.

[@extraleague01]

it seems you don't remember, but Sabine learned how to fight using Darksaber from Kanan, and Sabine is using Ezra's lightsaber that he left behind.

[@chrisbensonpdx]

I haven't seen Rebels yet. My impression of Sabine at that point where she stole the map wasn't that she was an awful person or anything. Just rebellious and kind of a pain in the butt, but in a way that seems kind of exciting and grounded in good intentions. She seems pretty badass and charming but also complex and mysterious to me. I'm looking forward to getting to know her better.

[@JonatanMontanez]

Glad you are liking her character! She’s awesome in Rebels!

[@Josh_Lee_Henderson]

That's a pretty good description of her. I guess the writers did a good job then of introducing her for those who haven't seen Rebels. (I'd still highly recommend watching Rebels though (and Clone Wars if you haven't seen that either)!)

@@officialmonarchmusic allow me to give you this quote: Through The Empire Strikes Back, Luke is learning to be a Jedi, but it’s not something that you just pick in 10 minutes. The whole idea is it’s very hard to learn to be a Jedi. A lot of people get confused about the Force. They see it as some special thing that you can find and pick up and put it on your head and suddenly you have the Force. Whereas it’s always been designed so that every [living] being has the Force. The amount of Force, which is like talent or intelligence, is different in every person. Some of it is inherited, but it’s no more than a talent. It’s not something you can acquire - it’s something you can learn to use.

[@donaldwatson7698]

At least 13 years have passed since Ezra's disappearance in 1 BBY. 1 year to the Battle of Yavin (Death Star destruction), and 9 years to the start of The Mandalorian. From there, we first see live action Asoka a year later in 10 BBY, then again 2 years later (according to Jon Favreau) taking Grogu's chain mail from Din, so 12 BBY. If I understand correctly the Ahsoka series starts after that point.

[@ElKamaleon777]

Canonically all the Mandoverse series are set in 9 DB, so Ezra and Thrawn have been missing for 10 years

[@overastro]

No actually those drawings on Ashokas ship is from Sabine, it seems we missed some time between the ending of rebels and the beginning of Ashoka. Probably why Sabine was labeled “apprentice”.

[@adriankuban3134]

Jedi Master Adi Gallia wielded red/orange color lightsaber during her time as a Jedi Knight and possessed it after she was made a Jedi Master and eventually a member on the Jedi High Council, wielding it on many battlefronts, including Troiken in the Stark Hyperspace War in 44 BBY and the galaxy-wide conflict known as the Clone Wars in 22 BBY until her murder by Savage Opress on Florrum in 20 BBY.

[@SigTheSauceMan]

5:39 My assumption was that Ahsoka was using the sonar-like ability a Togruta's lekku grant them to figure out the right way to "unlock" that device. Kind of like using a stethoscope to crack a dial combination lock. 7:54 This droid, named Huyang, is the same droid we last saw in Star Wars: The Clone Wars S5E07 through S05E09, the mini arc where Ahsoka accompanied a class of younglings to Illum to find the Kyber crystals for their first lightsabers. According to Huyang himself, he had guided Yoda as a Jedi initiate in building his first lightsaber. However, his comment that he has been a part of the Jedi Order since its "nascent" days suggests he has been around since the Order's founding almost 26,000 years ago. 13:20 Yeah, I was a bit disappointed, too. Sabine and Ezra are only two years apart. They totally could have gotten together (and a lot of people *were* shipping them, anyways). Oh well. 13:55 No. We did not know Morgan Elsbeth was a Nightsister yet. Previously, every Nightsister we've seen has been a Dathomirian Zabrak (a species of which the females all have chalk-white skin and grey tattoo-like markings, such as Asajj Ventress and Merrin). - Side note: Asajj Ventress and Merrin are the same species as Maul. It's simply that females don't have horns, and only males have red or green (and in the case of Iridonian Zabrak, normal, tan-colored) skin. 14:38 "She's not a Jedi, she's a Mandalorian." Just a reminder that there *have* been Mandalorian Jedi before. In Disney canon, Tarre Vizsla was the sole example. But in pre-Disney canon, in addition to Tarre Vizsla, there were multiple Mandalorian Jedi in the New Republic era following the war with the Yuuzhan Vong. And one of them was a Jango Fett clone, too. Also, Jaina Solo (the second child of Han and Leia) was even trained in Mandalorian combat styles by Boba Fett himself in order to kill her brother, Jacen Solo (who had fallen to the dark side and become Darth Caedus). Also, we don't yet know if Sabine is or is not force-sensitive. In Rebels, the Bendu hinted that Sabine was force-sensitive, but her Mandalorian nature made her less able to become attune to it. 14:52 Yes. That is Clancy Brown (more recently known for playing The Harbinger in John Wick: Chapter 4, and Lt. Hank Anderson in the PlayStation 4/5 game, Detroit: Become Human). And in Star Wars: The Clone Wars, he also provided the voice of Maul's brother, Savage Oppress. 21:08 No. That is Ezra's lightsaber. If you recall, Ezra handed it to Chopper before surrendering himself to Thrawn. Chopper than gave it to Sabine (as she was the only one remaining who could use it). However, it seems she *did* modify the emitter (top) section. 21:31 You are correct. Sabine previously wielded Ezra's lightsaber in her duel against Gar Saxon. 21:56 I don't think Sabine is "out of training." I think it's more that she doesn't have her Beskar armor on at the moment, forcing her to fight differently (especially against a force-sensitive lightsaber-wielding opponent), in addition to the fact that Shin (being force-sensitive) can easily be physically overpowered. 22:13 Yeah... good thing lightsaber wounds don't bleed. If that wound wasn't instantly fatal, it won't be fatal at all. Though... considering the temperature of a lightsaber blade, Sabine's insides should have been flash-cooked in that one second the blade was inside her.

[@robertmartin2936]

Clancy Brown has Star Wars double-dipped! Mr. Krabs is also the Devil horn guy (Devaronians) from the Mando prison break episode! And here he's back as Ryder Azadi, the former Governor who fought with them in the last Rebels season with the mushroom hat. He voiced that char in Rebels and the look was based on him, so it's very cool to see him in Live Action.

[@bemasaberwyn55]

4 characters. He was an Inquisitor that was offed by Ahsoka. He was in that prison break crew in season 1 of Mando. Ryder. And Savage.

[@sakisaotome6753]

the key to solving the map puzzle is that you are trying to reproduce the triquetra/trefoil image from the scan. The central smaller trefoil is your compas that tells you the orientation alignment of the puzzle. within the larger trefoil (in which everything is inside of) are the circles within circles with lines that connect it to the central triangle within the larger trefoil. So you need to turn the sides of the sphere to align the pictures so they match the larger troil in the hologram.

[@Chessmadcrasher]

This is awesome. We are in real time on the episodes!! Ahsoka is starting off strong with the chase for Thrawn, the Sabine/ Ahsoka relationship looks like it’s going to be a roller coaster. I think it’s not going to disappoint.

The lightsaber is Ezras. Thrawn told him to surrender unarmed. He left it with Sabine.

[@randalthor741]

I saw a mainstream media site describe Ahsoka as a spinoff of The Mandalorian, and man do I ever disagree with that description. Ahsoka is very clearly a spinoff of Rebels. I have to say, so far I'm really happy with the casting for this show, both for the live-action versions of characters from the animated shows, and for the new villains. The only one I'm not quite sure of yet is Mary Elizabeth Winsted as Hera, but I think that might just be because I can't look at her without seeing Ramona Flowers.

@@adriankuban3134 I wouldn't write that if I were writing the show, but them holding off Ahsoka when she's demolished four Inquisitors in the past and knowing that Filoni really likes fanservice, I'd say it's possible. The fact they have a name instead of X brother/sister supports that it's a new character. Wookiepedia has the gender down as male; I don't know if that's in a press release or I missed a line where they used the word, "he," in the show.

4:05 - It's funny.... ever since Rogue One when Vader had his "Hallway Scene", it's become a staple with certain types of characters. Luke had his "Hallway Scene" in Chapter 16 of The Mandalorian, now Baylan has his "Hallway Scene" in Part 1 of Ahsoka. 11:48 - That droid's dome is actually based on the ORIGINAL 1978 version of R2-D2's action figure. The "Teardrop eyes" were different than R2 in the movie, but we didn't care. We were kids. LOL! But it's a funny little Easter Egg Dave put in. 12:40 - LMAO! I just had an idea... Since we refer to every animal species in Rebels (and now, here) as a "Loth-(whatever)", I'm going to start doing that in real life, except instead of "Loth-Cat", I'll call mine "Earth-Cats". Or, "Earth-Dog", or "Earth-Lion".... etc... Should make our next trip the either the vet or the shelter pretty interesting. "Hi, We're here to adopt an Earth-Cat." I bet the look on their face will be priceless. 13:03 - I've been thinking about that. She's not wearing her Mandalorian armour, but we know this takes place after the "Night of a Thousand Tears"... I wonder if she stopped wearing the armour as a way of "going into hiding" because of that. I also wonder if her family is still alive. They weren't on Mandalore itself, but we don't know just how far Moff Gideon took that destruction. 13:50 - There was a clue in the trailers, which I did spot (as did others). The "green flame" below the sphere (map) as it rose above the pedestal. 14:53 - Heh... don't feel bad. But I recognized him as the Drill Sargeant from Starship Troopers. However, he IS the same actor who voiced Ryder Azadi in the Rebels series.... so, once again, perfect casting. 15:23 - This question gets a little murky. Rebels ran up until Rogue One (0 BBY) in the timeline. The Mandalorian season 1 began in 9 ABY, and this is (according to Dave Filoni) 2 years after that (because Grogu spent 2 years with Luke before returning to Mando). These first few episodes likely run around the same time as The Mandalorian season 3, but it's hard to tell for sure. 18:15 - Disney sure has a way of creating adorable (if kinda ugly) creatures that will make a great Christmas plushy.... am I right? (and yes, I want one, too) 19:20 - That's a very good point. I'd be willing to bet that her relationship with Sabine ended a good bit before she met Grogu. Ahsoka, it seems, has trust issues ever since she found out Anakin turned into Darth Vader. She's almost terrified of "attachments". Also, the time between the end of Rebels and "now" is at least 14 years (even if you assume Mandalorian seasons 1&2 take place within the same year). 20:05 - Emme, look at what's left in the hologram... the "image" on the floor. Think of the Map as a Rubic's Ball... turn it until it matches the pattern on the floor in that temple. THAT is the "key". There's a reason I love watching Reaction channels.... I often hear things you guys think of, and work it into what I already saw or know. I post like this because it's an interaction, and I like "giving back". Have a wonderful day!

That's the Governor of Lothal. The Rebels voice actor. And the Senator is Ezra's friend Jai, from the cadet episodes and the same kid that Ezra had contact the Purgil.

[@Franjo5000]

Ryder Azardi. No, the one who contacted the Purgil was Mart - Commander Satos nephew.

[@officialmonarchmusic]

Am I the only one who is questioning how this twenty-year-old is a Senator? 😂

[@eianfederle2715]

Sabine is not force sensitive. Ahsoka refused to train grogu because he's too traumatized to train him safely in the ways of the force, so she was scared that hed turn to the dark side. As for Sabine, shes not force sensitive, but can train her in the ways of Jedi morals and lightsaber fighting. Also the green lightsaber she had when she was fighting the girl sith acolyte was Ezra's saber.

[@jerrychouinard9005]

Hey Emma, I'm so happy you're catching up and now virtually live. A few observations of your reaction to this episode. Particularly the "presentation" Sabine missed. The grey haired man: Ryder Azadi (I didn't check IMDb for spelling) was played by Clancy Brown, as he did voice the character in Rebels (and you're correct, Mr. Crabs although I'm more familiar with his Lex Luthor) and the young senator he told to talk to cover for him while he asked someone to find Sabine was the former imperial cadet that met Ezra and Sabine in "Old Joe's" In case you missed it, Ryder said at the beginning of the presentation it was "several years" go that Extra and the rebels freed Luthal from the Empire. Also the drawings the wall of the bunk of Ahsoka's ship would be Sabine's. They're not on the Ghost. Sabine would have used that bunk during her time training with Ahsoka.

RIP Ray Stevenson AKA the actor who plays the older Jedi-not-Jedi. You're one with the Force now and shall be remembered.

I really love this show

[@Freshfruitt]

AHSOKA!!!!

[@mr_chill77]

So glad you decided to post this now! Discussing a show and theorizing about everything is one of the really fun parts of being a Star Wars fan. There were some really cool Easter eggs in this show. The ship that Ashoka meets Hera on is Home One, which is Admiral Akbar’s ship from Return of the Jedi. The room that Ashoka and Hera meet in is the same briefing room where the rebels plan the attack on the 2nd Death Star. Also, the villain’s last names are Skoll and Hati, which are refeferences to the two wolves that chase the sun and moon in Norse mythology. Dave Filoni is a big fan of wolves apparently. They show up a lot in his material. Overall I really liked the episode. My one nitpick is that I don’t like this new trend of people taking a lightsaber to the chest and surviving. It happened twice in Kenobi and now obviously Sabine is going to survive. It makes Qui-Gon’s death seem a little lame.

I hate what Disney has turned lightsabers into

Huyang is voiced by David Tennant. (Killgrave from Jessica Jones)

[@claymccarthy6198]

She woke up Bendu in Rebels ... when she kicked him while training with Kanan and Erza ... it showed a little then she's force sensitive

[@jasonchambers1679]

For the record, after thinking about it. Grogu would have been after Sabine. Grogu, based on the timeline would have been maybe a few months ago. Leaving with Sabine and training her would have been more like 3 years ago. Not wanting to train Grogu may be her not feeling good after what happened with Sabine.

[@coreozurn4950]

Love the shirt. ❤

My 10th Doctor (Who) David Tennant enters the Star Wars universe as Huyang! 🤩

We would have rioted if they didn't include episode 2

[@nathandts3401]

We know she survived from trailers.

[@jasonchambers1679]

I cannot wait till your episode 2 reaction

[@BrainCakeProductions]

Huyang is voiced by David Tennant who played Killgrave in Jessica Jones.

[@putinscat1208]

People always wonder why this captain doubted they were Jedi. There haven't been many Jedi seen in the last 30 years.

Filoni has cast the show really well. Natasha is perfect for Sabine (and beautiful to boot) 😊 Balin and Shin make a good pair. MEW plays mamma Hera really well (and she’s Ewan McGreggor’s wife) Senator Jhy is the kid from Rebels as well. Great detail. Episode two will be a fun trip too.

[@stanleysmith2221]

Thanks!

[@emme]

Thank you!!

[@eianfederle2715]

actually the lightsabers used by the sith acolytes are a reddish orange

[@6dayzofchaos584]

Didnt follow standard Jedi protocol. Thats all Anakin.

[@The5Ronin]

Yes that is Mr. Crabs, and Lex Luthor and 100s of other roles from cartoons and games. Clancy Brown is legendary.

[@pucknorris3473]

To all who wonder how Sabine survives… spray bacta.

[@jonathanross149]

I thought of Tomb Raider when Ahsoka got the key.

[@VodkaCouch]

Looking back at Mandalorian I feel like a dummy for not even considering that Morgan was of Nightsister Descent. Her entire clothing attire screams Nightsister...

[@DToomer]

As not to give away spoilers, Disney+ doesn’t give away the title until a day after the show has come out.

[@jonathanross149]

This matches the hype

[@adriankuban3134]

Healing through the force is Canon before and during the old republic it was used, but after a while the Jedi stopped using it because, according to them, it disrupted the very cycle of life. And for example, force healing was used in other similar situations by the Siths, Nightsisters of Dathomir,... For example, even Palpatine used it on Anakin during episode 3 on Mustafar when he found him. And yes, Padmé died of broken heart syndrome. It also exists in real life because after the death of the actress Leya, her mother died of it. ;(

[@officialmonarchmusic]

If Palpatine "used force healing on Anakin" in ROTS, than I assume it is new material, correct? I highly doubt Lucas wrote that into ROTS, but I could be wrong

[@adriankuban3134]

@@officialmonarchmusic Palpatine used little force healing on Anakin organs and metabolison inside his body and he used Sith powers/Alcgemy to do connection between Anakin and Padme. To keep Anakin alive as long its possible until droid finished operation. It is confirmed in the Star Wars Canon comic Darth Vader when he had his castle built on Mustafar and then in the Vader Immortal vr game. Vader/Anakin tried to revive Padme from the end of episode 3 Revenge of the Sith, but he couldn't see it because Luke and Leya were already born. Because he thought they died in her womb. So when he tried to revive her, he couldn't see them because they were already born. And then when he found out that he had a son, he wanted to be sure Darth Vader 2020 comic period between Star Wars episode 5 and 6. And some time after that, this cinematic Fallen Angel takes place.

[@officialmonarchmusic]

@@adriankuban3134 Then I don't buy it. If it was all established in Disney canon.

[@adriankuban3134]

@@officialmonarchmusic Do you even heart about Legends go to Canon becouse that all start happening when Dave Filony with Lucas started making Clone Wars series and Movies. Looks like another person has a Goldfish Memory. Damn, this disease of Dumbs, Idiots and Hottentots was first among the gaming ones and now it's also spreading to the editorial KZbinrs, but you're still just at the beginning, so please, you're not as good as the already changed individuals. ;)

[@officialmonarchmusic]

@@adriankuban3134 I'm sorry, was it already canon in Legends?

[@YezaOutcast]

by the way: the sabers baylan and shin use are not red. they're orange. this is an important difference.

[@JCG52577]

Everybody I’ve seen thinks the Loth-Cat is a pet. I’m of the mind that it’s actually more of a roommate!

[@TimSedai]

Never seen Rebels (or clone wars for that matter) and the story flowed fine. I eyerolled a few moments that I'm certain Rebels fans loved but it's been great standalone so far. It helps that I've read the thrawn books and watched Mando but I don't think revels is required watching just extra

Hi emme. Gosh it's been long journey to get here

I think we all want to know, when are you going to cosplay as Sabine?
