Ian McDiarmid proves that Palpatine isn’t necessarily his scariest when he’s shooting you with lightning or attacking with lightsabers.

[@LazzyVamples]

@@eazymepeazyme3907 The essence of Kreia's philosophy is basically that since the force is in everything and also has a will of its own that guides people and influences their decisions, pretty much every action that a person does can be credited to the force; a higher power. To her, this means that no action done by a person has any true meaning. In her eyes, the only way to give meaning to the actions and decisions that people do is to remove teh force from the equation. The Exile fascinates her because she's numb to the force and thus not affected by its will. In the Exile, Kreia sees the potential to not only freely act, but to also kill the force itself so that the galaxy can, at long last, decide its own fate.

Seeing Qui-Gon in the 4th episode talking to Dooku about Obi-Wan made me very emotional. Maybe it was because this takes place during Episode I & this was one of the last few moments we see Qui-Gon alive. Seeing Ian back as Darth Sidious was so unexpected. Crazy to think that after Dooku kills Yaddle Sidious probably immediately sets course for Naboo where he met young Anakin Skywalker, attended Qui-Gon's funeral, and celebrated Naboo's victory over the Trade Federation. Episode 5 was also great. Introduces us to "old friends not forgotten" if you will & we even see young Caleb Dume & Depa Billaba. It's interesting to see how they set up Ahsoka & Rex's escape after Order 66. Ahsoka was so heartbroken at Padme's funeral procession. Was kind of sad to see. They sowed the seeds early of Ahsoka joining the Alliance with her seeing Bail Organa on Naboo. I also loved the scenery of the farming community Ahsoka was at. Reminded me of places I've visited many times in California's central valley. It's impressive to see how strong she became. Killed that Inquisitor so fast. A nice series of shorts I really enjoyed. Hopefully they make a volume 2 & we get to see more tales down the road.

[@mathies3598]

That inquisisor fight had parallels to Vader and Reva, where it's lightsaber vs no lightsaber and Ahsoka/Vader almost toying with the inquisitor by just dodging the saber and also grabbing the hilt. I mean Vader is Sadistic so he gives Reva another chance to fight which is just futile and Ahsoka is just done with it. But also, Rebels Maul vs Obi Wan, because both of these are easily the 2 shortest fights in Star Wars. I wonder if any of those references were intentional.

[@UchihaOokami2596]

Oh yeah she fought an actual Sith Lord who was a master with a double bladed lightsaber. And she came out on top. None of the Inquisitors are even close to Mauls prowess with that type of saber.

[@zagreus2846]

I find something interesting about Dooku's first and third episodes: The first has him try to kill a senator who exploits his people, killing them for his own personal gain. In his third episode, he is in cahoots with our friend Palpatine during Phantom Menace. What was Palpatine doing during PM? Oh yea, putting his own world under a blockade and subjecting them to an occupation (where they were put into "camps") so he can become Chancelor. In other words, exploiting his own people for personal gain. Exactly what Dooku was fighting against in his first episode. It's a great way to show how the darkside corrupts a person. Much like Anakin, he became the very thing he swore to destroy. Anakin, who started down the dark path because he was afraid of losing Padme, only to try to murder her and their unborn children because she had a problem with him slaughtering innocent children. I think it's a good way to show that rules are there for a reason and completely ignoring them because you don't think they apply to you never ends well.

The scene is framed with the only source of light being the open door that Dooku enters from and it is in this light that Yaddle stands while Sidious is cloaked in the shadow, Dooku between them. When Dooku pushes back Yaddle, he closes the door thereby blocking out both her and the light leaving him with only Sidious and Darkness. But as Sidious moves in, Yaddle, with the last of her strength, opens the door symbolizing the lights last attempt to reach Dooku, Sidious recoils at the glare while Dooku stands before her with a look of sadness. However she is not powerful enough to keep it open and falls, and so too doesn't any chance of Dooku turning.

[@hobblesan99]

Episode 4: Its obvious to see the strong bond between Dooku and Qui-gon. Dooku has already started his journey towards the dark side, yet he feels compelled to continue his support and concern over his padawan. Qui-gon was also ignored by the Council, just like Dooku... further pushing Dooku away from the Order. The 'angel/devil on your shoulder' comment was spot on... great storytelling there by the writers. There exists one key question from this episode.... with Yaddle's death, why was there no inquisition into her disappearance? Its obvious that Dooku reaches a "point of no return" during this timeframe even though Yaddle tries her best to bring him back... even offering some form of leniency in exchange. The Council lost a beautiful voice in Yaddle, though we likely will not see it in greater detail. And.. its not like they listened to her (or any nonconformist) anyways.

[@RedHeadKevin]

Here's a real deep cut: Yaddle's ship is a PDT-8 Personal Deployment Transport. It's one of the "mini rigs" that came out with Empire Strikes Back. They weren't in the movies, but they made cool toys.

[@dice268926]

& Yaddle is probably a sign that Grogu will speak normally too, and Yoda is Truly one of a kind.. Dave is smart in planning

[@CharlieHepp]

always thought the scene where Ashoka escapes through the ceiling by deflecting blaster bullets was a little impossible even for the likes of someone as skilled as Ashoka. There was a circle of clones completely surrounding her at close range. Makes sense now. This show makes me crave more anthology about Star Wars. I love seeing the different stories of these characters. When Yaddle lifted the door, Palpatine had to hide his face, because if she escaped, she would tell the Council everything she overheard, and he couldn't have her knowing his identity. I think this was one of the few times, he wasn't pretending, he was scared. That inquisitor continued that Star Wars had an amazing design and then got bodied in a few seconds. It's amazing how far Ashoka has grown. She went from being one of the most hated characters in Star Wars to one of the most beloved characters in Star Wars! 34:37 - Anakin vs. Dooku “The Jedi fall because of Anakin Skywalker. But Ahsoka, who’s no longer a Jedi, survives because of Anakin Skywalker.” 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Dude, that line gave me chills. It’s cool seeing how Anakin being a harsh teacher improved her skills so much that she was able to escape her chase on Coruscant and Order 66I almost shed a tear watching that victory and death cameo why do people cry so easily Because some people can access their emotions rather easily.... others are emotionally stunted monsters 🤷‍♂well that's a very psychopathic question :') weirdo 9/10 times a year I cry because of Star Wars I would love to see Asajj's story adapted into Tales of The Jedi.

[@NamesSimba]

I remember watching dooku’s arc in awe on how well it was done. It was like we watched a short movie about his fall from grace. Parallels anakins fall but in a different aspect that was great. Wish they could make this into a full movie!

[@Alice83ashla]

19:09 When Ahsoka and Anakin is talking I like it sandwich’s two Ahsoka theme. Ahsoka;Ahsoka/General Loathsom/Ahsoka;Ahsoka Leaves. And when Anakin was giving back the lightsaber it just remained me of so much when Anakin tries to give back her Padawan brad. I love how we see two former Jedi and how they left and what path they went because of it. 46:24 There is one episode from Forces of Destiny wear Yoda is teaching Luke, if anyone wants the chronological order to watch that episode just comment.

[@MG2_Gaming]

I'm happy to see that I'm not the only one that cried in almost all this episodes! I need 200 episodes like this!! DAVE GET TO IT NOW!

[@NikoPLD]

I am surprised this haven't been mentioned, but before the intro, you can see how Yaddle walks on the left towards the light and Dooku walks to the right side, where it's dark. That is an amazing work from Filoni.

[@samspeaks2016]

First time I've seen a blue and green saber cross blades to my recollection, neat.

[@Lil_Libra]

Dooku’s fall from grace was just as heartbreaking as Anakin’s. 💔 The battle with Yaddle totally reminds me of Anakin vs Kenobi. She wanted so badly to save Dooku just like Obi-Wan wanted to save Anakin. 😢

[@franciscooctavius5957]

Ep 5 and 6 literally had me bawling like a child. These mini vignettes are pretty damn powerful. Well done Dave F

[@nashfloyd]

Dooku falling on his knees after closing the gate just like Anakin after killing Mace Windu, what a nice parallel. Plus they both end up calling Sidious their master after killing a jedi for him😭 Also the last zoom into Palpatine's fully evil smile, what a great show this was!🔥

[@nashfloyd]

I also loved the visual representations of Dooku's fall to the dark side, like the contrast between the shadow and the light and that shot of Dooku being in between of Yaddle and Sidious, still not fully in the dark side but making his final decisions.

[@aandb86]

"To know what the light is you must first touch the darkness" Omg Calvin

[@Stupranos]

I love how the music is all calm. Almost like the calm before the darkness like it was in Clone Wars just before Order 66.

[@bemasaberwyn55]

It SO reminded me of leaving Mandalore in season 7

[@thomaspappalardo7589]

I didn’t expect myself to get so emotionally invested in Yaddle so quickly, but I did. I even shed a tear while watching her die a second time watching this video reaction. I do wish she had her orange lightsaber though.

[@Jim_The_Fish]

Watching Episode 5 of TotJ and immediately watching Episode 5 of Ahsoka puts this in such a perspective. It’s all about training her so she survives.

[@oscarjohnson2130]

I want to see Quinlan Vos and Ayla Secura during their master and apprentice days. They're relationship always seemed so strange to me when I thought about it because he was such a goofy surfer bro character when he appeared in Season 3 of Clone Wars but she was always so stoic and serious

Just a heads up these links are mislabeled but do go to the right pages. Thanks for posting them anyway it does make it easier to navigate :)

[@zagreus2846]

I find something interesting about Dooku's first and third episodes: The first has him try to kill a senator who exploits his people, killing them for his own personal gain. In his third episode, he is in cahoots with our friend Palpatine during Phantom Menace. What was Palpatine doing during PM? Oh yea, putting his own world under a blockade and subjecting them to an occupation (where they were put into "camps") so he can become Chancelor. In other words, exploiting his own people for personal gain. Exactly what Dooku was fighting against in his first episode. It's a great way to show how the darkside corrupts a person. Much like Anakin, he became the very thing he swore to destroy. Anakin, who started down the dark path because he was afraid of losing Padme, only to try to murder her and their unborn children because she had a problem with him slaughtering innocent children. I think it's a good way to show that rules are there for a reason and completely ignoring them because you don't think they apply to you never ends well.

[@texasrattlesnake31637]

Episode 4 & 5 were amazing! That duel between Master Yaddle & Count Dooku was off the charts - I guess Yoda sort of avenged Yaddle when he forced his Old Padawan to retreat in Episode II - Anyway, great reaction Wave Crew!

[@xavier.bayard76]

The episode 6 was made from the book "Ahsoka" but this so short format ruined it. We didin't even see Ahsoka taking inquisitor's kyber cristals from red to white to make her white lightsabers we see in Rebels. Too bad. The quality of this series is really great but episodes are way too short.

[@ItsShaz1]

:)

[@kayceecattt73]

I believe where Ahsoka was hiding out as Ashla was a farming moon called Raada. That’s in the Star Wars Ahsoka book. They knew her as Ashla and an inquisitor did come after her there. The whole story of her on the moon isn’t in the episode of course. But that part came from the book. That made me smile lol

[@PierceArner]

There's nothing more that I want to see than Luke Skywalker's struggle that leads him to *The Last Jedi* with the same level of nuance and detail as they gave to Dooku's story here in him struggling with how to uphold peace and justice when you can't do both at the same time.

[@ricitizen]

Ahsoka is a Jedi Knight and Master in deeds and experience, if not in name. She has been trained since almost before she could walk. She was brought in as a youngling by Jedi Master Plo Koon and assigned by Grand Master Yoda as a Padawan learner to Anakin Skywalker. Her training and experience were forged during the Clone Wars, and she fought in its most significant battles. In addition to being taught and mentored by the greatest Knights and Masters of the Jedi, she was a commander in the Grand Army of the Republic and served with Clone Captain Rex of the 501st Legion. She fought in, out, and behind enemy lines throughout the war. By the time of her match with this puny Inquisitor, she had already fought in the Siege of Mandalore against Darth Maul, who uses a double-bladed lightsaber. She is one of the last surviving Jedi Knights at this time. She could have force-choked him out and crushed him instantly if she wanted. It was not a contest, nor should it have been.

[@michaelgualtieri651]

You ask me, watching episode 6 is the perfect Epilogue for the Clone Wars series. It feels so natural and perfect if you watch it right after watching the original Series Finale arc.

[@brucechmiel7964]

I would have preferred a direct adaptation to the novel.

[@xTehOwn]

@@brucechmiel7964 yeah with the purification of the crystals and the creation of the white sabers..

[@Ventress1]

Episode 5 is my favorite. I cried towards the end when you realize all that training helped her against the clones. I need more than six episodes!

[@bryanmerritt853]

It’s insane how all the unanswered questions were answered in these six episodes. And watching Ahsoka Tano killed that inquisitor in seconds,is that how she got her lightsabers and modify them to what we seen now from rebels series

[@connorlanham4459]

No, this is a completely different inquisitor character. She still gets her new lightsabers after confronting the Sixth Brother though. However, by the time of this episode, those events haven’t happened yet.

[@jrdnadms]

I read somewhere that the syntax that Yoda speaks in is just a result of his age and wisdom. That, or he speaks the way he did to honour his former master. Glad Yaddle has a normal voice

[@DrSmurrie]

I got heartwrenchingly teary eyed at so many of these Tales...

[@frostdragon7135]

I don't know why, but when the inquisitor showed up in episode 6 I had a tingling suspicion that they were going to surprise us with the inquisitor being Barris. It of course didn't turn out that way and I don't know if that would make sense anyways(she might have been sentenced to death for her crimes for example), but I do imagine it could have been a powerful moment in an alternative world. Loved all these episodes! Episode 5 in particular really got to me personally.

[@_Eternal-Darkness_]

Really love the quick shot of Palpatines face right after dooku kills yaddle, also the music is great to. And whenever I hear the song that plays when yaddle holds the door up I get a little teary eyed.

[@Not_Harvard]

All I want is more of this. These short episodes have done such an exceptional job at putting context to so many things. Just fucking fantastic.

[@boomataco]

The sith Lord felt like a whole movie

[@UncleMilo]

I thought Eric would know this, but Ahsoka used the name "Ashla" in the Ahsoka novel, which this is certainly a reference to!

[@crazytrain03]

Guys! Episode 6...that was the one thing we never seen outside of her book's writings. As soon as I heard that young girl call her "Ashla", I instantly knew what episode that was gonna be. This was her confronting the Sixth Brother, killing him and then cleansing his sabers to her double white sabers. Sad that wasn't shown...but her killing him was filling to her story to see play out.

[@protector_of_the_realms]

It contradicts the book completely it’s so depressing since the book is so much better than what we got

[@Jeroogalo]

Ahsoka is a Jedi. Her "not" being one is merely a technicality based on her status in an Order that fell before she could rejoin. But by every metric she's a Jedi.

[@tlinit]

Thank you, Dave Filoni for these amazing shorts! I hope for more in the future or just more of everything Star Wars!!😄

[@anthonyyoutubefan7567]

Thanks, Guys. Your reactions are always special. That Inquisitor, though...he's very interesting. We need more of his devilish exploits. Yes, Ahsoka took him on the same way she did the other Inquisitors from SW: Rebels. This encounter mirrored the one that happened between Obi-Wan and Maul, in "Twin Suns"...very Japanese Samurai-esque. I'm left wondering if those 3 people Ahsoka rescued with Bail Organa (hope they didn't end up living on Alderaan) will end up being characters in Live Action, appearing in the Ahsoka miniseries. May The Force Be With You...

[@Billyregin]

I'm glad they didnt feel a need to bring in Hayden to voice Anakin, and kept Matt Lanter. While its great seeing Hayden reprise the role and get praise, the voice actor from Clone Wars is hugely responsible for improving the Anakin by a massive amount. He did a perfect job in the show, and I'm glad they kept using him the episode in this series. Obviously the writing of Anakin in the series deserves a ton of credit too, but if Lanter didn't do such a great job, I dont think Anakin or the show is as well liked

[@dice268926]

Episode 4 is FREAKING AMAZING 👏 I almost cried and I already knew the outcome, AMAZING how they keep a consistent storyline throughout different mediums Yet feel fresh, Dave is the PERFECT guy to take over LucasArts

[@Vahki100]

Episode 4 is not only in my top 3 overall SW animation episodes, it's also just a top 3 story in the world of SW overall for me. I just cannot get over how great this episode was. The entire Dooku arc as well.

[@danielfrank2985]

That last shot of episode 4 with the evil smile and glowing eyes of everlasting malice from Palpatine is just 👌 perfect

[@fp2386]

Calvin and Aaron look like a serial killer duo hanging out with the actors that portrayed them in a biopic

[@KirkMoss]

The parallels from subtle explanation of why the Jedi fell so easily to the clones, because of their near-Soviet level of “why worry/prepare for something that isn’t going to happen,” to Ahsoka’s survival and the Jedi’s fall being both due directly to Anakin’s unconventional tactics… That was some beautifully deeply-planned but not over-worked storytelling. It’s Star Wars at its best - not just a kids or even adults fantasy story, but a story telling deep truths about reality. Just like Ned Stark, the Jedi (and those in life with integrity and good intentions) failed to prevent or even directly enabled horrific evils because in their naively simple views of the world, they were incapable of believing they could be outplayed.

[@afictionate]

I haven't gotten around to watching Clone Wars and Rebels and seeing Ahsoka here has made me really want to go back and see them to experience her story.

[@Nerveroxis]

The name "Resolve" for the last Ahsoka episode is a statement to her character. She loses everything, to her knowledge everyone she knows other than Rex is gone and she has to leave him for them to be safe. Despite being alone at a young age after only knowing war and death, she never falters in her resolve to do good. She doesn't shut herself off from the Force, she delves deeper into it. Her fake name of Ashla is more than just a easter egg, it's the truth. Ahsoka is the embodiment of the light side of the Force.

[@arielcordero]

And that's how she got the two red kyber crystals that she later purified for their newer white lightsabers that she used in Rebels and The Mandalorian. Right?

[@BobPantsSpongeSquare97]

I might be looking too deep into this but something that stood out to me was how the title of this mini series was Tales of the Jedi and it focuses on the training lineage of Yoda but in particular Count Dooku. In the sense that Dooku, Qui Gonn, Obi Wan, Anakin, and Ahsoka followed a training lineage of jedi who embodied what the jedi were supposed to be and were more independent minded

[@tenniset]

I can feel I am becoming more like a hardcore fan now because I cried like you during episode 4.

[@FalconWingedGirl]

So... Did anyone see how they focused on Ahsoka's hands when preparing to fight? She had a Fist, which the Brother had from the Mortis Gods. Then she transitions to the Father's open Palm.

[@bemasaberwyn55]

Holy SHIT

[@jackson857]

48:28 This is almost the exact same move Ahsoka used on Maul in the Phantom Apprentice when he is trying to escape and they are up above the city on the narrow beams.
