This is an episode I think I’ll probably like even more on rewatch, when I can factor in the negatives and appreciate the positives more./r/Games is for informative and interesting gaming content and discussions. As a friend put it last week: “If the first words out of her mouth aren’t, ‘what the actual fuck you piece of shit!?’” I wasn’t looking for anything quite that harsh… but… yeah… what the fuck, Anakin?īUT- I will say I thought it was very clever that at their last live meeting, Vader told Ahsoka that revenge was not the Jedi way, to which Ahsoka declared she wasn’t a Jedi and attacked him, while here the resolution was found in her refusing to take revenge. It helps that the whole thing might well have been Ahsoka hallucinating rather than an actual meeting with Anakin*, explaining why Ahsoka might not have asked questions she otherwise would have, but Ahsoka deserved more explanation than she got. I would have much rather have seen that than see Huyang have a throwaway action scene with a faceless droid.Īlso- while I liked the Anakin/Ahsoka stuff a lot (acting and choreography aside), I wanted more than what we got. (And that’s saying something because it really does hit.) But it would have cost in cgi to make it happen onscreen. That transformation would have made that scene hit so much more than it did. She did her best, but she just strikes me as uncomfortable in the role, if that makes any sense.Īnd remember last week when I said “it looked cool” wasn’t a good enough explanation for me for why we got giant starships in atmosphere and rock-em-sock-em robots? Well this episode had a perfect example of why I felt that: the money that went to those shots could have gone to showing Anakin transform from Vader to Anakin on screen instead of having to cut away from Christianson as Vader and back to him as Anakin.

This young Ahsoka felt like a guest star. She feels like she’s comfortable in the role. I’m not the biggest fan of Rosario Dawson’s performance, but she is Ahsoka. She wasn’t awful, but it just felt like she wasn’t Ahsoka. Which brings me to the biggest letdown of the episode- the girl playing young Ahsoka just wasn’t as good as the material required her to be, imo. Anakin and Ahsoka’s fights didn’t look great, and young Ahsoka, despite clearly being a physical performer, wasn’t great with the sabers. Unfortunately I think it was let down by a couple things. This was a really good episode, storywise.
