Ahsoka Episode 1 + 2 discussion
Ahsoka Episode 1 + 2 discussion
Well - it’s here! The first two episodes are on Disney+
Keen to hear what everyone’s thoughts are. Needless to say, there will be lots of spoilers in this discussion.
I really liked it. Felt like a solid continuation of Rebels, a bit slow at times, but overall a solid setup for what could be a very interesting and exciting series.
I feel like we should be able to guess the identity of the masked third Sith-esque villain. Don’t think it’s a fallen Ezra (too boring a plot line) but the stance and mannerisms seemed very familiar…
Also - great to see Kevin Kiner doing the music! Nice callback to some Rebels motifs here and there.
I would’ve liked to see Vanessa Marshall as Hera, I felt her voice was so uniquely matched. This Hera seems way too girly for a maternal older Hera. And where is her son?
Hoping for a Freddie Prinze Jr cameo.
Dave Filoni must be so happy to finally tell this story. Can’t wait to see what comes next!

I thoroughly enjoyed both episodes. Where do I start?
First ep:
- lots of OG Star Wars vibes with the logo, fade into a crawl, then start with a ship in space
- lots of Phantom Menace vibes with the docking of the ship and two “Jedi” there for a “peaceful” thing, the little probe droid searching for a target with the shadowy apprentice waiting behind
- the cameos of Rebels characters
Second ep:
- the reveal of a night sister
- could we get an older Cal Kestis cameo (unsure who the masked inquisitor is)?
- Baylan with Dooku vibes of being evil, but also with a reason for that and why he thinks he’s right
- some Jedi Fallen Order/Survivor parallels with gateways leading to other systems/planets
- is this new Galaxy a reference or potential for Yuuzhan Vong?
Absolutely no way Disney makes Yuuzhan Vong (or anything similar) canon. Too cowardly.
could we get an older Cal Kestis cameo (unsure who the masked inquisitor is)
Yea, the inquisitor is kinda sus, no? Although, I really hope that he is just some random surviving inquisitor. I didn't find him THAT cool for him to turn out to be some character that we know about already.
is this new Galaxy a reference or potential for Yuuzhan Vong?
Honestly, THAT is what I'm hoping for! Is Thrawn the anti-hero working to stop an impending Yuuzhan Vong invasion? Was Palpy preparing for this too by building the death stars? Aside from galactic domination, was defending from a Yuuzhan Vong invasion one of the goals of the Final Order?
