The Acolyte Ep 6: "Teach/Corrupt" - REACTION!

[@Salixhartlepool]

Your reaction to him taking the robe off had me in stitches 🤣

[@richardd5645]

''The thirst is strong in this one'' 😋🤣 Notice Osha glanced down 😉

[@bemasaberwyn55]

Louise's taste in darksiders should be concerning 😂😂

[@Ventargard]

Louise thirsting after Qimir and getting excited by a whip..yeah we know what's on your mind 😳😂

[@wjrasmussen666]

I have never seen her react that strongly before.

[@Cyndr22]

I'm absolutely loving how everyone watching this is just like "Oh no he's hotttt, oo maybe i will let him corrupt meee 😵‍💫👉👈"

[@ChimeStudio]

Qimir’s hideout is filmed on the island of Madeira. Some of Khofar was also shot in the mountains there

[@2mornins]

I wasn't expecting Qimir to enter his Sith thirst trap era

[@jackiec859]

"It's just my brain going on walkies." 😂 Louise, you are a gem.

[@Scott.Celestin]

I can't believe that cave had guard rails I'm glad things are finally getting OSHA certified

[@Pfhreak]

Qimir probably installed them while she was asleep just to score points with Osha.

[@joelwatkins]

Haa!

[@eazymepeazyme3907]

One for the free Sith. Governments like the Republic and the Empire couldn't be bothered.

[@LouiseJulie_]

also pls ignore my one random gold nail, i was testing a colour. xD

[@ssotkow]

How fitting. The color of Cortosis.

[@Toms3110]

make it a trend!

[@thedarkknight2221]

I’ve been waiting for this reaction more that any of the other channels solely because of Louise thirsting over Manny Jacinto. And how can you not? I mean I’m a straight guy and even I have to admit Qimir/The Stranger is the most seductive villain in all of Star Wars.

[@jackiec859]

I'm almost 67, and I'm perfectly content to feel like a 'dirty ol' lady' over Darth Swole.

[@briangilesmtg5632]

I Loved your reaction to Qimir disrobing..... I hope your trip next week goes well. We will wait for your reaction as always.

[@xThronex]

Now you see that evil will always triumph, because good is thirsty.

[@Sanj1n]

“Hey Osha, my eyes are up here” 😂

[@rockerojerez349]

😂😂😂😂

[@andreikizzie1140]

That would have been hilarious if he said that!

[@martinhorwath6311]

A buddy of mine saw Qimir in the shower. He said that Qimir had an eight pack. That Qimir was shredded.

[@sanayairani3175]

Quimir is interresting...he is good at manipulating...he doesn't need a Light saber to kill Osha...and he made a point for every action of his

[@cybermystg]

That glare on your eyes was totally priceless lol

[@LeftyConspirator]

Qimir's comment about the helmet mirrors Yoda when asked what was in the cave on Dagobah by Luke - "Only what you take with you."

[@salti9983]

Osha is NOT slick; I saw her look down!

[@TheOnlyRedsFan]

Vernestrah feeling uneasy about hyperspace travel is a terrific callback to the novels.

[@wonderpossum3295]

Qimir's island was apparently filmed in Madeira. As well as a bunch of the Khofar stuff as well. Seems like a pretty interesting place.

[@harbs_cantina]

So Qimir is a fallen Jedi. Makes sense. Why is my brain suggesting that Vernestra was his former master?

[@abeautifuldayful]

Everyone's saying her light whip made his scar. Possibly, but it's almost too obvious. It might be throwing us off what happened. A light whip seems likely, but it doesn't have to be hers. Or it still could be but in the hands of another. What does Sol know about it? Could he be the one? Mother Koril? Who knows?

[@foulrot]

​@@abeautifuldayful this show doesn't really do red herrings as much as it does "from a certain perspective ". Almost everyone called Qimir being the stranger, but he being the stranger wasn't the big reveal, if anything him being a former Jedi is. Vernesstra being Qimir's master feels like something we are supposed to predict, but we'll be surprised by how them separating happened.

[@jonathanb1059]

Former Jedi that seems to actually either be a Sith currently that has killed his Sith master or never had a Sith master and is trying to follow the teaching of the Sith (no idea where he learned them) to become a Sith by himself. This is evident by him specifically mentioning the power of two (rule of two) set by Darth Bane and wanting an acolyte for that purpose. It will be interesting to learn more of his past.

[@boatymcboatface666]

Thankfully we'll never know!😂

[@TakakiM-sr1df]

​@@boatymcboatface666 agree and thx God that season 2 was cancelled

[@CarnageO31]

I think with Mae he used the stick and realized fear doesn't inspire loyalty, so he's trying the carrot with Osha.

[@OfficialOpinion]

"Why are they BOTH so attractive?!" Gosh, I feel so heard. The speed at which I'd begun writing fanfic over this episode was wild. Those two just need to kiss. Each other and then me.

[@Glimmcomp]

"Sweetie Pie Buttercup Sunshine" 😀

[@manuelvillacana9284]

Certain scenes were reminding me of the love story part of crouching tiger hidden dragon.

[@jonathanb1059]

I was thinking that if this dark secret that Sol has been hiding is revealed to Osha, she may feel so betrayed by him (who was not only her master, but almost a father figure to her) that it pushes her to the Dark side. And then she will feel very connected to Qimir, since he was also betrayed by someone he trusted and was super close to.

[@YodatheHobbit]

Does anyone else feel embarrassed how they NEVER in 20/30 years considered a connection between Luke's blast shield helmet being down in A New Hope training/younglings training with their eye covering helmets and darkside users/Vader's masks both being sensory depriving to increase their connection to The Force and their ability to act on instinct?

[@ldcg106]

No, bcause on Luke that was obvious from the start and on the darksiders' it's a retcon. Also, Vader needed that mask just to survive; had nothing to do with sensory deprivation (that's what his chamber was for).

[@Iceland_Siglufjordur]

이 드라마. 많은 사람이 욕하고 있지만, 사실 많은 한국사람들은 스토리에 어느 정도 문제점이 있어도 재밌게 보고 있어. 우리는 SOL의 배우인 이정재가 연기한 '이자성'과 '수양대군'의 모습을 알고 있기 때문이지. 그래서 이 드라마 속 SOL이 이대로 계속 선한 사람일지. 혹은 어둠으로 변할지. 매화마다 정말 두근두근 짜릿짜릿해하고 있어. 그의 악당 연기는 진짜 끝내주거든! 😁😆👍

[@Sanj1n]

Thanks Louise! your reactions are always the best.

[@edwardrhoades6957]

20:10 The lightwhip was introduced as the weapon of the Dark Lady Lumiya/Shira Brie in Legends comics

[@daryljohnson6738]

Cortosis was rare and was mined by Darth Tenebrus and Plagueis. The island that they mined it on is also where Plagueis killed Tenebrus. Qirim might be another apprentice of Tenebrus, Darth Venamis, who goes on to become the first Ren. I believe that's explained in the Plagueis novel.

[@eryniel95]

When you realise that the moment Osha puts on that helmet, its not just about finding the space to focus on the Force without outside influences, its also about her shutting out the world around her and disappearing into her own headspace.

[@Jaydenretriever-nt3li]

The whip-saber!

[@thihaaung647]

5:28 Osha found out he has another lightsaber with him all along. 😏

[@tairra777]

Your facial expressions as Qimir seduced you cracked me up. You would have turned at the soup. lol

[@layniebear1237]

always love the reactions, thanks Louise!~ im really excited to see what comes out next!~

[@cesarherrerabalmont9761]

Your reaction at minute 4:00 😂🤣 I like your reactions Greetings from Puebla Mexico👋

[@Shawn_M]

I want the twins to reunite for real by the end of this. I hope they both survive

[@BalletStrong-cl6cb]

Qimir has a creepy mask, insane lightsaber skills, and gorgeous muscles....but he ought to work on his bathing suit

[@shelbylynn613]

Subscribing immediately because you said you’re down with reylo ✨🦋 1:15 they’re called skura!

[@Sanj1n]

I have the feeling that Vernestra was the Qimir’s master when he was a Jedi. His scar on his back could be from a lightwhip or it could be also from force lightning 🤔

[@backfandangoX]

is it just me or all the lightsaber hilts SUPER THICK in this show?

[@xThronex]

It's to accomodate a fat battery because of the way they film them (couldn't hide a cable to an external powerpack the way they did for Ahsoka because no sleeves).

[@ldcg106]

Might also be for marketing puposes once the hilts go on sale as merchandise and they don't run into the same problems that Obi-Wan and Luke's lightsabers bring.

[@Recrussio]

@@xThronexhahahahaha I love this era of Star Wars… f***ing gleefully ignorant sycophants just pulling complete shit out of their arses… Disney star wars is such a fucking joke.

[@WookieeRandy]

I was waiting for your reaction to Qimir's disrobing ✌🏼

[@jotavvs_]

This jedi Mog has something on.. I mean, he was a little nervous that the powerful master Vernestra was going to the mission, and accused Sol right away, even Vernestra said that was a serious accusation.. He was pretty nervous all the time too. or maybe he's just scared ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@bemasaberwyn55]

22:28 Disney h8rs: lIgHtSaBeRs In ThIs eRa NeVeR kIlL Disney: *SMASH CUT* She's dead Jim

[@jackiec859]

🤣

[@ldcg106]

That's a correction, doesn't meam people were wrong about that statement before

[@foxsolid]

Good thing Sol made the jump to light speed, otherwise jedi would have been in a massive wreck.

[@thegreatjedi309]

Other reactors have noticed those are whip-like scars. Venestra revealing her light whip this episode is expected to be alluding heavily to her link to Qimir.

[@alexflowers5730]

cortosis featured in the jedi outcast games as well if i remember correctly, cortosis weave plates. guess it's not cannon but has been around for a fair few years

[@evropz]

Ep6 give me Darth Vader Vibe

[@kristofferremmell]

The light whip is cool. I read up on her. Seems that was a modification she made to her lightsaber but kept it hidden for a while. Even her hyperspace nausea is also from the books.

[@sooperglew1993]

Theory: Qimir's master ( Plagus) destroyed the witches looking for the 'power to create life' - ep3 @ 22:58 mother Korril states : 'And what happens when the Jedi discover how you created them?' Sol and the 3 other Jedi found out and why Osha left the order. Qimir also found out. Qimir = Master Vernestra's former padawan

[@HoracioAmiritoDiaz]

Young Venestra is actually featured heavily in the comics and books.

[@BenChanNYC]

14:55 "WHY?!" My guess is because they know how SW fans are with their theories and wanted to make sure we knew they were dead-dead. (I mean, my leading theory of the Dark Master after ep4 was Torbin, so...🙄)

[@Big4ofThrash]

Why did you look sad when he put his clothes back on? 😅😅😅

[@dracosithlord8153]

Highlights of this reaction are for sure your expression with the skinny dip scene, Bazil and Pip giving Mae the 1-2 combo, and Osha putting on the helmet.

[@IsaacKuo]

I still believe in Sol! Well, mostly. But I know we've had lots of red flags. And one thing ... there's something about Sol's gauntlets that has always struck me as a bit ... I dunno ... Vader-like or something. But I 100% trust Bazil to do the right thing. I think Sol has forgotten about Bazil and he doesn't realize Bazil's on the ship. Maybe Bazil calls in the Jedi to the location of the final confrontation? Maybe Bazil tips the scales?

[@rhaenatargaryen8061]

i love qimirs manipulation so much. its very different but yet very similar to what we've seen before

[@glitzgarcia8281]

Palpatines seduction and manipulation was top notch for sure... but Qimir's is one that anyone would totally fall for

[@TakakiM-sr1df]

[@dxundownload8635]

happy to have found your channel! Manny is easily now my favorite new live action sith

[@읍읍윽]

Hi I'm a Star wars fan in South Korea. I see a bunch of harsh criticisms about The Acolyte in America and I don't know why cause I'm Korean not American. Reagarding of crticisms and low rate in IMDB, what do you think whether these are right criticism or just malicious ridicule? Some says white men just hate this show due to black and asian actors. I'd like you to answer my questions as American

[@RREvilMonk]

Hello from Kentucky (America)! Many of us don’t like the writing and the flimsy character development, motivations that change without reason, dialogue that says inane and/or obvious things… Honestly, the Korean Actor has received high praise from even the harshest critics for his amazing ability to elevate a role that has otherwise nothing to it. Mr. Lee is acting his talented ass off. Look at the House of the Dragon show which is currently running along side this one. It has a diverse cast, woman lead characters, all the things “h8ters” are supposed to hate… …and it is currently enjoying quite a lot of approval from the same people who don’t like Disney Star Wars. Because the writing, characters, and plot are all superior. That’s it.

[@babykosh5415]

I have been WAITING for YOUR reaction video to this thirsty episode all week! Did. Not. Disappoint.

[@rhaenatargaryen8061]

Love him saying the most negative possible interpretations of yord and jecki bc if we go back and rewatch like.. even yord was much fairer to osha than he frames it as and jecki was very supportive and DEFINITELY not one sided.

[@vaderdave5046]

OMG...little ballsacks...🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@CactuarNick]

I'm sure people have said this already but if you love Manny Jacinto you should watch The Good Place, great comedy and amazing story, he plays the most lovable idiot you've ever seen.

[@mofrakker]

Now noticing the First Ren theory with Qimir when he spoke about "Losing everything/That's when you're free" to Kylo's "Let the past die, Kill it if you have to". I don't know why Imy eyes focused on Sol's black gloves when he tapped his hand near Mae's face as she was restrained. I have a feeling he's gonna be the scapegoat for the Sith.

[@ldoc3988]

I think the flashback might be part of the next two eps, cus I think sol just took Mae back to brendock 😬

[@Drrck11]

Episode 6: featuring Evil Pip and Darth Osha😄

[@Cobinja]

I hope Osha made a backup. Otherwise I'm worried for Pip 😢

[@johnpittsii7524]

Hi Louise hope you are having an great and awesome day ❤

[@lordfoul6259]

You really should read the High Republic books that's where they have Vernestra getting force visions when traveling through hyperspace and yeah they made nightsisters having light whips canon through one of those books as well

[@Recrussio]

hahahaha oh I wonder why those trash books didn't sell XD

[@lordfoul6259]

@Recrussio light whips have been around for years in the legends books and that's where the nightsisters used them to it's just now they're officially canon and be careful I'm a High Republic fan who has all the books and I think they're great it's not like they replaced The Old Republic with The High Republic

[@Recrussio]

@@lordfoul6259 1. light whips are just shit writing; they're just another author trying to one-up darth maul's moment. ask a thousand star wars fans and nine hundred of them will tell you they're fuckin ridiculous and should never have been included anywhere, much less brought into live action. 2. the people who've made the decision to bring light whips into live action are a bunch of selfish, ignorant wankers who do not care about the philosophy of the original creators of this work. this is a terrible recipe and is part of the huge latticework that is the objective failure of this particular series. 3. "Be careful"? of what exactly? XD those books are young adult trash. their dismal sales numbers reflect that. if you like them, good for you. barely anyone had heard of them before this TV garbage was anounced. Basically ALL older fans were aware of the Thrawn books, the Plagueis books etc. even if they hadn't read them... these post-disney revisionist shitheaps flew right under the radar and barely sold... if you wanna delude yourself because you bought all of them and your literary standards are that low, great. the rest of the fandom doesn't give a f*** and guess what, this show is failing just as hard. the proof's in the pudding buddy, open your eyes XD

[@Recrussio]

@@lordfoul6259strange. My reply to this has just disappeared.

[@trollofduty007]

As for where he gets the Cortosis from, I’m pretty sure there are Cortosis deposits on that island

[@DC87]

There is literally a cortosis vein running through the cave wall at 17:18

[@mattpryor216]

The planet might be Bal'demnic from Legends, it was described as an ocean planet with rocky tropical islands and it's where Tenebrous and Plagueis look for cortosis in the Plagueis novel.

[@christopherpower193]

My bet is Vernestra is Quimir's Jedi master. The scars look like whip scars. Also, from Legends, the best way to beat a lightwhip is having a shoto (short lightsaber) and duel wielding. Strikes me as why Quimir would have his lightsaber that way.

[@joshhowell6145]

The light whip was in Legends. Mainly the comics. There was a dark side user that had one, she eventually turned Jacen into Darth Cadus

[@Deactorr]

Steal his clothes and run. Would you?

[@LouiseJulie_]

No I'd join him

[@hanjizoe2648]

[@jasonmarbach]

Great ep, great reaction 😃

[@malikrichardson9762]

Been waiting for like 10 years droppppp plz😭

[@moderndancingfool]

I think Star Wars needs to get significantly hornier if this is the result. But for real, how often do we just have someone on the dark side just talking & really putting in the seduction vibes? Also, Osha, I saw you sneak that peek, girl. Don't blame you one bit.

[@thegreatjedi309]

I've seen other comments say cortosis is very brittle. That's prob why Jecki was able to break the helmet, and maybe why Qimir needs to stay close to a cortosis vein in order to have ready access to repair materials.

[@YodatheHobbit]

Qimir unintentionally calls out us ALL for loving Star Wars characters who can't love us back. 😥 But real relationships have RISK when you tell people you like them! 😂

[@joeschmo9106]

I can’t wait for the episode where OSHA takes her top off!

[@Kabuto432]

14:53 No fucking mercy, young lady)

[@Sanj1n]

15:32 so happy they brought her lightwhip from High Republic books, also her visions when she travels through hyperspace.

[@Exile19941]

I have a theory what if qimir was the one that actually started the fire and used that force ability the witches used to control the Jedi’s mind to make it look like they are the ones responsible when it was just him that way he could trick Mae so she becomes his apprentice and if that didn’t work goes to osha

[@alxbodhisattva]

I'm absolutely convinced that Qimir is a former padawan of Vernestra who was seduced by Plagueis himself to turn to the Dark Side. That's why he has those scars caused by Vernestra's light-whip. But Qimir not only is a jedi dissident but a sith dissident as well. He is a RENegade, so he might be known as Ren. So Qimir was created to be the missing link, the nexus between the prequels and the sequels, which might be precisely the point of the whole series. I'd love seeing Plagueis roasting him with force lightning so he finally looks just like Ren in the comics. PS: I'll be missing your reaction next week 🥺🫶 love from Argentina & MTFBWY! ✌️☺️

[@FFGFOREVER]

I knew that the secret darksider was Smilo Ren because he overpowered Mae by grabbing her arms and she couldn't do a thing. A giveaway. Mae killed Indara so how could he over power her if he wasn't Smilo Ren?

[@GaZZuM]

This felt like the first episode that actually ended where it was supposed to. This show is really hitting its stride now. Haters be damned, this is some GOOD fucking Star Wars!

[@BJackson-kg5dr]

I think the last two are the first 4 had potential but died via 1000 small cuts

[@GaZZuM]

@@BJackson-kg5dr The last two have been good BECAUSE of the first four setting up a good story with emotional stakes. That's how storytelling works.

I wonder if they will bust out a sith ghost or sith holocron of Darth Bane that instructs the stranger? That would be kind of cool. Also would there be something from this timeline that sets events in motion for Palpatine and Vader, Luke, etc. that someone would see in a force dream or premonition like the so called prophecy?
