Star Wars: The Acolyte 1x5 First Time Watching Reaction & Review

[@jameswg13]

using cortosis in armour to do that to the sabers is smart. the use of Trakata as well does make me doubt whether the stranger is actually Sith or something else as a certain theme did play.

[@hyperspaceprospector]

So true, I realized in hindsight that I did not talk about the cortosis - I am too used to it being part of Star Wars that I forgot that we haven’t seen it on a show before (at least that I can recall).

[@jameswg13]

@@hyperspaceprospector yes we haven't seen it in any of the shows or movies to my knowledge

[@Klaital1]

@@jameswg13 Well, we have technically seen cortosis before, as the electrostaves of the magnaguards in the clone wars had cortosis, but I don't think it was ever specifically mentioned.

[@jameswg13]

@Klaital1 yes we have. Its been canon again since 2014 in the Darth Vader comics. We also had cortosis in Armour in the book Thrawn Alliances where the was a Cortosis mine and where Thrawn and Anakin met and teamed up during the clone wars and ended up fighting against droids with Cortosis armour and a guy in Clone armour made of cortosis.

that scene where jecki saves mae from the siths blade had me soo convinced they were gonna continue to develop that relationship and then........

[@DefMM123]

The high republic land of tears, that's hilarious guess I'm in for a ride once we delve even more in that era!!

[@Eltonlaleham]

This is awesome

[@m.e.3862]

Not Jecki! Nooooo😭 She was my favourite ☹️

[@hyperspaceprospector]

Mine, too! 😭😭

[@zaandarbrow2ndChannel]

Just reacted ! yo the choreo was nasty!!!

[@tristanriera4821]

I really don't understand the people who bash on this series...

[@iHateincels]

Influence of hate.

[@thelodownshow313]

Great reaction

[@basicsimp8798]

This episode was amazing. ❤

[@tristanriera4821]

Jecki 😭 I'm getting ready for them to pull a Rogue One and end up killing all the good guys. Do you think Qimir could end up being the Sith who trains Palpatine ? I don't think it was ever said that he was trained by Pleguis. Or maybe just in Legend.

[@hyperspaceprospector]

I am intrigued by where this is all going, could be any number of directions now as to where they decide to tie-in with later characters. Knights of Ren is a theory I am leaning toward.

[@azk9218]

In canon too. But Qimir could be his former apprentice. Or could be master of Tenebrous who was Plagueis'. Or his apprentice before Plagueis

[@GhoulishGrinMedia]

In my opinion this was the absolute best episode of the series. Great stuff.

[@erickg162]

Jackie! Considering the actress's background, I was excited to see her in action. It sucks we will never see that character again.

[@hyperspaceprospector]

Not necessarily- this show jumps around the timeline a lot! I am gutted to lose her, though!

[@bemasaberwyn55]

This was BRUTAL

[@Beymaster20247]

He feel more like a Sith assassin rather than a Sith Lord
