Guys, she’s quite literally a child soldier. I don’t think her getting stunned for an hour is the worst thing in the world that could happen to her.

Rebels takes place around 15 years after Revenge of the Sith... Therefore it takes place 10 years after Jedi Fallen Order, 7 years after SOLO, 5 years after Obi-Wan and around 1 year after Andor. And by extension... It takes place around 4 years before Rogue One and A New Hope.

[@brucechmiel7964]

Andor takes place 5bby so the same time as Rebels first episode.

19 BBY (Before the Battle of Yavin) Revenge of the Sith 14 BBY Jedi: Fallen Order 13-10 BBY Solo: A Star Wars Story 9 BBY Obi-Wan Kenobi 5-0 BBY Andor & Rebels are the correct years in the timeline

There are theories as to why the inquisitor deflated after he died. The one I find most likely is that he was Skakoan, or another species that has to live in pressure suits to survive.

[@bruh-fw7op]

Yeah but you don’t just disappear out of thin air when you die, his entire body dissipated. And Skakoans are primitive, isolated from the galaxy and can’t speak english/basic.

[@firecat4529]

3:19 That guy was with Ahsoka in clone wars when she lost her lightsaber in the "Lightsaber lost" episode if you remember. And he was also dead in the inquisitor's fortress in Kenobi.

[@MyToastyToast]

13:50 Wait until you get to the bad batch, I never knew clone wars graphics could look so great

[@firecat4529]

Before you start rebels, there are 4 very short cinematics introducing its main characters that you could watch shortly before officially starting the show.

[@datguy3581]

Bad Batch starts directly after Revenge of the Sith. Rebels takes place a few years before A New Hope. On a side note, Bad Batch explores the legacy of the Separatist Alliance so if you want more insight into them watch the show.

[@generalgrievous3423]

Yes and no for the whole Bad Batch starting directly after Revenge of the Sith. The main events of the show do take place after Revenge of the Sith but that first episode starts about midway through Revenge of the Sith so I'd say and, spoilers if the Normies stumble upon this comment the combat test probably took place around the same time as when Anakin was being rebuilt.

[@TheLoreSeeker]

That Inquisitor is "The Sixth Brother". He's an Inquisitor from the comics that hunts down Ahsoka in the Ahsoka novel and ends up becoming the source of her new lightsabers.

[@equinoxXIII]

Anakin and Ahsoka's sibling bond will always make me sad! Ahsoka is one of the few jedis that survived the purge ironically because of Anakin's training! The other jedi were too arrogant with their old ways of training and now you see why Ahsoka respects Anakin a lot more throughout clone wars.

[@willfanofmanyii3751]

"Anakin did actually care about Ahsoka" Bruh.

[@touriewright5428]

Her taking the name Asla is in reference to the original Jedi - Ashla was used by the first formal tribe of Jedi as a place for memes to hone their connection to the light side. -so she still holds close to the Jedi. ;) Can't wait guys keep it going.

[@firecat4529]

21:33 I think that is the 6th brother and he is also in some star wars comics, with quite a different design. His and Ahsoka's fight were also part of the Ahsoka novel where we get to learn that Ahsoka uses his red lightsaber crystal from the lightsaber she killed him with (19:20), turned them white by purifying them and built her own new 2 white lightsbers with them.

[@UchihaOokami2596]

One thing i always remember when Ashoka destroyed that Inquisitor, is that she went toe-to-toe with a true Warrior of a double-bladed saber. And she beat him. None of the Inquisitors are up to Mauls crazy skill and fierceness with those type of sabers and she beat him. Her ability to just flow in between them is fantastic.

[@xTehOwn]

putting this in the middle of the finale doesn't make any sense.

[@Commander-vf1lk]

Hi! Inquisitors are equivalent to that of a Padawan. They hunt for what’s left of the Jedi & didn’t fight them in the any war. The Inquisitors were established after the Empire was formed not during the Clone Wars. Furthermore, it’s years of experience for Ahsoka which is how that Inquisitor died easily. Therefore, Ahsoka is a war veteran who had fought probably a +100 battles on different planets vs somebody who hasn’t fought an actual Jedi & has less experience in dealing with them. She had fought tough villains such as Ventress, Grevious, Maul, etc. Not to mention, saved many younglings if you recall those episodes mostly by her own. She learned from Rex if you guys recall that too. “In my book, experience outranks everything.” - Cpt. Rex 18:32 “You’re one of those kids who’s never gonna learn. Throw him in the fire.” so… if you had friends who were misguided & weren’t born before the Empire. How would they have known? They weren’t there or never encountered what they had done. The Empire won. Therefore, they control all info to spread lies & educate others in their own truth. History are written by the victors. History is filled with liars. The fact that the Jedi Order failed & Palpatine lived, his truth becomes written. And the Jedi become a lost page. Cause all you need to change the world is 1 good lie & a river of blood. Palpatine had completed the greatest trick a liar ever played on history. His truth will be the truth. Recall the Revenge of the Sith? Their cover up was that the Jedi had attempted to assassinate the Supreme Chancellor. Think about their schools under the Empire. Peer pressure where most will say Jedi are bad so you’ll think it’s true cuz your friends & the other societies said so. Lastly, how he knew her name is because they studied the Jedi by going through the archives that the Empire still retains. Essentially, data records, journals, etc. SPOILER WARNING: The last episode of the Clone Wars in the Season finale where she dropped her lightsaber was to make sure that everyone will think that she had died in the crash of the ship. Her saber is just for proof to convince anyone on her trail that she had died.

Its actually really cool when you think about how Anakin trained Ahsoka in such an extreme way to make sure she was prepared for anytbing compared to how he trains the Inquisitors because he intentionally gives them lackluster training so that they will remain reliant on the Empire and their handicaps (like all the gadgets and tech they use) and so that they will remain afraid of him and each other.

I love how that ultra cool looking inquisitor was immediately taken out like a bush league bitch by Ahsoka. A lot of inquisitors are half-trained fallen jedi who are good at hunting padawan survivors but when they come up against true masters like Ahsoka, Obi-Wan, or Maul, they usually fold very quickly.

[@RandomBakedCake]

Padme died of takotsubo cardiomyopathy, broken heart syndrome is an actual thing. It's when you become so stressed your heart begins to stop functioning properly and leads to failure. I'd say Anakin becoming Vader and choking her to death mixed with child birth on top of that, the Republic becoming an Empire, and the Purge of the Jedi is enough to warrant enough stress for her.

[@bryannkam]

Well the reason why the inquisitor set fire to the village was simple. He couldn’t find the Jedi the easy way, so he had to flush them out. And as both Maul and the Grand Inquisitor showed, the best way to lure out a Jedi, target the innocent.

And now that I think about it, she’s partially holding back. Cause if you peep, she didn’t actually damage anything around her, but if she were in a real scenario (like during order 66), she has a lot more free range of motion.

[@brendanoconnor1550]

“We don’t know why…she’s lost the will to live” This is my personal head-canon: In the 90s Star Wars novels there was an insane Jedi who used the Force to influence the people around him. One person was so overpowered by his will that when an outside energy cut the Jedi off from the Force, that person died not long after. In Episode 2 we see Padmé fall in love with Anakin within the span of a few days, especially after she was initially uncomfortable with his advances. The Council and Palpatine talk about Anakin’s vast potential with the Force, what if he unknowingly willed her to love him, and when they had their confrontation on Mustafar it somehow severed that connection, soon after killing her. This isn’t some grand explanation of how her death was handled in Episode 3, it popped into my head when rewatching the prequels and thought it was an interesting theory.

[@UchihaOokami2596]

Thats really awesome. Really need to break into my moms EU books (shes the real fan since day one in 77). And i still like the theory of Palpatine having something to do with it. While the secrets of extending and creating life were lost with Plagueis, Palpatine obviously would lie as "The Master" and hang that carrot for Anakin. Maybe he knew just alittle bit to steal life force from a being connected to another. Sith Alchemy loved that transferring of Energy, specifically towards themselves, and he could have utilized something similar to drain her life to save Vaders. Combined with Vaders vast connection to the force, it would be enough to keep him alive after the massive amount of damage he took on Mustafar.

[@GeeksofMucklebee]

Without Anakin's training, Ahsoka would not have survived Order 66. Stunning.

[@firecat4529]

11:37 There is a theory that says that Palpatine drained her life force to keep Vader alive until he got the suit.

[@maramackenzie-mann]

Technically there is such a thing as a 'safety saber'. All lightsabers have controls on them so you can control how long the lightsaber is (a padawan will get taller as they age, after all, so they don't need to rebuild their lightsaber, they just need to adjust the length), and you can also control the intensity of the emitter field. Essentially, at the right settings, a lightsaber will only give you a mild burn instead of taking your arm off.
