Rex CT-7567: COMPLETE Life Story (Canon) Part 2

[@johnbuczkowski5628]

Rex is perhaps the one of the most tragic clones ever, because he lost so many brothers, his purpose, and his family. The Republic he was fighting was gone along with the freedom he was fighting for. This beckons the question "was it even worth it?"

[@bwc-chvd]

He really lived to see the new republic

[@rosesweetcharlotte]

The sad thing is that Rex's story is one of the happier ones for any of TCW characters. He survives, he gets to have some relaxation and happiness, and he is able to help defeat the Empire. And if the season 2 The Mandolorian rumors are true, he will reunite with Ahsoka. As awful as Rex's life is in spots, it's so much better than what happened to so many others
