How Ahsoka Tano Became Star Wars’ Most Powerful Citizen - The Story So Far

The Ahsoka Disney Plus series brings the continued story of one of Star Wars’ greatest heroes, Ahsoka Tano. The Ahsoka trailer spells the Star Wars screen introduction of Thrawn on Disney Plus along with other such animated characters like Sabine Wren from Star Wars Rebels. In the history of Star Wars, Ahsoka holds a special place among the Lucasfilm pantheon, will this be the peak of her story?
First appearing in live-action on the Disney+ hit, The Mandalorian, Rosario Dawsonleads the cast of the Ahsoka series as we view her continued adventures- but where will she go? To help prepare, we’re looking into her past from Tales of the Jedi to Star Wars: The Clone Wars (but not The Clone Wars movie, which doesn’t contain Ahsoka Tano), The Clones Wars series epic finale, her involvement in the Siege of Mandalore, and Star Wars: Rebels.
That happened between the Ahsoka Tano (Rebels era) to Ahsoka Tano (The Mandalorian era)? Though we have clues from The Mandalorian and the Book of Fett, we’re ready to know the truth about where he life took her, and how she became friends with her old master’s son, Luke Skywalker. Have we seen the last cameo from Luke Skywalker? Ahsoka the series seems like a great place to reintroduce him,and fill in some more gaps in Star Wars history.

Leaving out something as important as the Mortis arc is crazy. She literally died and was brought back by the lifeforce of a being who was the embodiment of the light side of the force. It hasnt amounted to anything, yet, but Morai's constant presence tells us there is something special there.

[@Illier1]

she also missed when she gave up but came back to defend her friends in Tales of the jedi

[@Fearrange]

Agree. First thing came up to my mind was why didn't they mention Morai. Ahsoka's relationship with Morai signifies she's so special.

[@jimmy67744]

"Awe-soka"

[@benwasserman8223]

Amusing to watch the crowd who once bashed Ahsoka in TCW movie and early seasons act like they never did that. Snips has come a long way since 2008.

[@Dakarai_Knight]

A lot of us were young and didn't have as much of a voice back then. She was always my favorite and what originally brought me into star wars.

[@robtography779]

great recap, just can't get over how she said Ahsoka... AHH-soka

[@diegopansini3152]

Why does she pronounce Ahsoka with such weird emphasis on the “Ah” syllable?

[@alpatrickson7706]

Don’t call her a citizen. That’s Mace Windu-level mean.

[@RYS.11]

@SmashBrosInitiative she is what a jedi should be. She is just like they used to be b4 the republic.

[@Goodman-4525]

That's what Jedi should've been

[@Dakarai_Knight]

She called herself that first though.

[@haydo-9916]

She’s a citizen of the Republic but what is she a citizen of exactly?

[@teddykgb9971]

Thanks, Kim. Helpful for casual fans who haven't/aren't going to watch all the animated series

[@CrimsonFIame]

Well written and a likable character. Something Disney struggles with quite often.

[@ChristianVillamil]

She was hated when she made her debut but the Clone Wars series gave her a lot of time for character development and became one of the most favorites of the saga.

[@DanFarrell98]

Most of her best moments are after the Disney deal. She was considered very unlikeable and poorly written at first under Lucas

[@jakob8940]

Dude that was in the first 2,5 seasons. All the seasons were planned out under lucas and Dave except season 7@@DanFarrell98

[@IamKnucks]

What are you talking about? Disney has literally hundreds of likeable characters.

[@fender7695]

News flash. She was a character since 2008…..Disney didn’t own Star Wars when she already became a fan favorite

[@L3WIS97]

If someone had have told you after her debut in the clone wars movie that she'd have her own show anyone would think all hope is lost and now look at where we are now

[@idlemickey]

"Ahhhh-soka" lol

[@isaac_paech]

For anyone confused about when the Rebels epilogue takes place in the timeline, this should clear it up for you: - Ahsoka's appearance in Rebels (excluding epilogue) occurs before the Original Trilogy - Her appearances in The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett occur after the Original Trilogy - Her appearance as Ahsoka the White in the Rebels epilogue occurs after these shows - Her appearance in the Ahsoka show will be split between before and after the Rebels epilogue The Ahsoka show will fill the narrative hole between Mando/BOBF and the Epilogue, as well as a continuation of the story post-epilogue

[@tomhiggins6885]

Ahhhh-soka

[@gabbadoez]

Why did they leave out what Ahsoka was up to immediately after order 66 in this recap? They already dove a bit into the Tales of the Jedi series in the very beginning to cover her birth, so why did they leave out the part post order 66 when Ahsoka lived on the farm, defeated an inquisitor bare handed, and cleansed his kyber crystals for her new white light sabers? Seems like a pretty important piece of info to leave out...

[@jasonrakoci]

Only have a limited time in episodes not to mention the whole series isn't even that long...wish we could see a long 24 or 42 episode run but then the looks would be more like CW style

[@CapoeiraBaron]

Slick recap! Thanks!

[@diegopansini3152]

Citizen 😂 that’s mean, but a funny reference

[@citystar2318]

The relationship between Ahsoka and Anakin is so layered, complex, and tragic.

[@thejcube]

Wow, you guys really studied the story! 🤯 Thank you!

[@sobversion3]

Lmao "Glubshitto" got me; that was funny 😅

[@micah4029]

7:20 Not listing Chopper as a member of the Ghost crew is disrespectful.

[@Connor17199]

It wouldn't be an IGN video without baffling false statements and ignoring major plot points

[@talhasaqib3098]

Much needed video

[@Fliptechmed]

That was a very comprehensive and easy to follow recap. Thank you guys so much! Keep up the amazing work up there at IGN 💪🏼

[@gabbadoez]

It was a decent recap but they left out a pretty important piece of information on how Ahsoka got her new white lightsabers post order 66

[@darthachref6195]

8:38 Revenge is not the Jedi way that wasn't vader speaking it was Anakin, he said the same line in the clone wars to her

[@darthachref6195]

Clearly you're not an OG fan Vader and Anakin shares the same body but completely different personality @@zibilacoste5

[@jamesarnold7253]

​@@darthachref6195 the whole point of return of the Jedi is Vader redeeming himself. If Anakin and Vader were different personalities then Anakin would have nothing to redeem

[@skapowski]

​@@darthachref6195ok Ben Kenobi

[@Maryfs1]

Learning your kid is force-sensitive and having the Jedi coming to take them away from you forever would be the worst thing to feel as a parent. Jedi are a cult.

[@_Dante_Sparda_]

Prime ahsoka is honesly on par with prime maul and close to even prime kenobi and anakin

[@loganharris4687]

id say she might even surprass kenobi but not anakin or prime luke

[@willisstillhere8846]

Par with Prime Maul, yes Prime Kenobi(Ben Kenobi) and Prime Anakin(ROTJ Vader) stomp her

[@jakob8940]

She's past maul in Rebels, that has been confirmed by Dave. In her prime, she's definetly on the same level as the great ones. And if The Ben vs Vader fight is anything to go by, she's past him even during rebels. He's a bit inconsistant

[@daylee0855]

AHHsoka.

[@MrRidikolus]

Imagine getting a major plot point wrong in the intro.

[@twisteddrummer]

We do too know what she was up to post order 66 and why she was doing what she was doing. It was in her books and some of it was covered in Tales of the Jedi.

[@totoneromj14]

Does it bother anyone else how the narrator pronounces Ashoka's name ?

[@gabbadoez]

for real

[@danielpatrick9962]

Judging by the comments, not even 1 person noticed 😂

[@OmniAtom]

So ready for this!! Really hoping she is STILL alive and joins the next feature movie.

[@jasonrakoci]

Chopper is best since R2

[@jorgegrahamjr2149]

Best star wars anytging ever

[@siddhant8430]

She is most powerful than entire star wars universe. She is badass

[@InverseFlash]

Relax

[@ncard00]

She’s not, struggling against Baylan, and seemingly also Marrok, and she almost got killed by Vader, couldn’t beat Anakin on mustafar, only cause of the high ground, and Luke and palps were never fights she could win, at least not Luke at his peak, so no, she’s not the most powerful character, and if not for thr daughter, she might even be as bad a force user as kenobi, only excelling at lightsaber combat.

Aahh-soka???? Can’t be serious

[@DanFarrell98]

So few people die of old age in Star War (maybe just Yoda?). Ahsoka should get the same fate because she'd be pretty old by the sequel trilogy anyway

Ahsoka may not call herself a Jedi. But she represents what a Jedi should be and the very best of them. Whereas Mace Windu is the worst Jedi.
