The Clone Wars - Tragedy

[@cw_edits]

We not gonna talk about how good that first bad batch episode was?

[@RbullT]

A phenomenal tribute and may the fourth be with you!!! Yes that first episode of bad batch had me reeling big time. As a prequel generation person (pre clone wars series) I always always always wanted to see the immediate aftermath of revenge of the sith. Back then, never in a million years would I have thought it would be shown through the perspective of a clone unit. I am so unbelievably happy

[@wandering-bibliophile]

That episode filled me with a sense of excitement and awe I haven't felt in a long time. The animation was gorgeous and the characters/references/parallels/etc. were on point. I seriously cannot wait for episode two!! It'll be amazing to see Rex again.

They basically did find out. What I love so much about the unsatisfying resolution to the episode arc with Fives is the Jedi council sits on the info they found and willing decide to cover up it up. In many ways the Jedi Order did put the nails in their own coffin.

The Clone Wars taught us a lot, but the important lesson it taught us was that good soldiers do NOT blindly follow orders. A good soldier first and foremost has the duty to protect people. Sometimes this means that SOME orders (Order 66 or even real life examples) should NOT be executed… And that‘s what it means to be a good person … to think for yourself and protect those who need protection.

I was born in 2003 This TV show has changed me, since I was a boy I remember sneaking to see a episode on the TV. Time after that I started to have them in CD and watch them as many times as I could. Always shocked by the drawings. Then, in class or in my free time I used to try and draw the space battles. I watched every single episode and, even if they are not great it's worth watching them. For me, is nostalgia. Then, season 7 was announced and I was in a state of disbelief and hype unbelievable. But when it ended I realised that my childhood show had ended and somehow my childhood too. That's when I cried. I have to say it was a great show. We all knew that there was no way that it could end well for any character in the show. But even though I'm grateful for had this show when I was younger and that I got to see it. I have to end this with a comment that I read when the final came out. Don't be sad because it's over, be happy because it happened.
