The lack of consequences in Disney Star Wars is lame. It makes everything meaningless and there never is anything at stake.

[@Derek-pg4yk]

Couldn’t agree more. No one ever dies and EVERYONE is force sensitive

[@ravenhawke5]

If I'm not mistaken, isn't Quinlan Vos still alive at this point. So they could bring him into the Bad Batch also. Possibly show them working together looking for all the Force Sensitive kids. His name was etched into the wall in Kenobi. Which would also explain why she was testing Omega like she was. To see if they needed to hide her somewhere better

[@Pinkielover]

No, I'd rather see them in a spin off

[@SpiderWalker3427]

This is literally what i wrote under your first videos after she was revealed in the trailer. Its kinda implied even in the book that it could've happened. It makes the most sense and it doesnt seem like breaking canon at all.

Ventress is a top tier character, absolutely love her

[@ReySkywalkerfan88]

Me too, she definitely ranks up there with Rey Skywalker

I agree

[@SageOutsider]

Ventress is from Dathomir. I feel like that’s a clue. If you watched Ahsoka, you’ll know why.

[@roguedexx938]

One of my favorite images glad she’s still around. Would love a “Ventress Bounty Hunter ANIMATED” Show

[@TimDaco]

This is exactly what I was saying. It makes the most sense and it doesn't break canon it stays true to The Book, And it Brings Back a Character that We All Love and want to see More Of. So personally, I'm Very Happy about this.

[@JennyDM92]

This was one of my favorite books. I think it would be really awesome to see it on the screen.

[@SlyerFox666]

Hmm makes even more sense when you think about why the witches wanted to go to Dathomir with all the space coffins in Ashoka.

[@DerekHoiem]

Nika Futterman was such a perfect casting for Asajj. So glad that she’s back voicing one of our favorite nemeses we love to hate. Nika is so good!!!

[@hungtheheroluu]

Other than the fact she voices Luna Loud, Olga Pataki, Catwoman, etc., Nika also definitely kills it as an ex-Sith acolyte and assassin. She's even voiced Sy Snootles, Gardulla the Hutt, and several different characters in The Clone Wars.

[@StarWarsMultiverse]

The catwoman of Star wars

[@Gor85]

I guess it's good

[@hungtheheroluu]

Funny because Nika Futterman, Ventress' voice actress, also voiced Catwoman in Batman: The Brave and the Bold.

[@dragonsman4733]

Technically shes the batman of star wars,

[@Gor85]

That would be pretty coo. To see what happens to Asajj after Clone Wars. Her death and resurrection. It would be great to see her story with Quinlan. I saw your previous video too. Have great day again.May the Force be with you always😀

[@SnakeDoctor303rd]

Dude thank you for the simplistic easy answer to this question. I got tired trying to watch 27 min long click bait videos with people saying nothing. This by FAR makes the most sense.

[@Ziiggywompus]

My initial thought after the episode was “oh dope nightsister magic” when you mentioned multiple hearts

[@user-it5lg8zi9l]

What If darth plagueis had influenced the midichlorians to bring him back to life after palpatine attacks, watched the whole of order 66 unfold, then kidnapped Luke from tattoine and trained him?

[@t0er3793]

Never read the books but understand why people would be upset about her return. I agree with your theory, throughout the clone wars the night sisters magic was known for resurrection. Had she been placed to rest somewhere else, then I would be more wth?

[@epicwork3642]

Her character is just as good as Asohkas...she needs to be in live action

[@hehu4025]

So why didn't Talzin or Merrin resurrect the Nightsisters after the massacre?

[@oXRaptorzXo]

It doesn’t work that way.

[@ReySkywalkerfan88]

Perhaps the new villains in the Rey movie will be the Nightsisters

I never read Dark Disciple but with this being in it, why was everyone so surprised when Asajj was shown to be alive?? Everybody I have heard comment on this said, 'I don't know exactly how she is alive when we see she died in Dark Disciple...etc etc'. If I had read this, I would have said right off the bat..'Oh yeah, she is most likely resurrected back to life.'

[@ky0ya13]

How did she get her lightsaber again? And where is her second lightsaber? And how did it become yellow? On the book cover it was a different lightsaber than in the series, obviously she lost them in the clone wars, but in the bad batch it seems like its the same lightsaber like in the clone wars, just yellow.

[@Angry_Peanut_52]

I'm guessing she modified the hilt of that same lightsaber, converting it from straight to curved. Its design isn't the same as the original red sabers she lost. Those (along with Barriss) seem to have vanished off the face of the galaxy.

[@raiden9468]

Hey theory, I’ve been looking to get into Star Wars novels but I’m unsure where to start and am wondering if you have any suggestions, I don’t have any preference about legends or cannon but I’d love to get into some of the legends books as I’ve heard so much about them Thanks and I hope you have a great day

I'm not saying it doesn't make sense but if it was so easy to resurrect a nightsister why everytime there was a resurrection they were zombies? and why was the purge of the nightsisters treated so serious (specifically by Merrin in the jedi games) if reviving them was always an option?
