    It may be a bit early to make this call, but I’m ready to retcon this entire show out of canon. It makes too many bold new assertions about the Star Wars IP without grasping the basics of the lore. It then compounds these missteps with lackluster choreography, cheesy writing, a horribly misguided plot, and several lapses in logic that not even Dave Filoni could explain away if you gave him a 7 season animated series. And it’s only been 3 episodes.

    Lee Jung-jae’s back must really hurt after carrying this entire show alone. I wouldn’t blame him if he never worked with western media ever again.

      I know Kenobi, Yoda, and Anakin are supposed to be some of the best jedi ever, but I didn’t realize how much worse they all were until this show. At this point it’s clear Palpatine didn’t need to be an evil genius, just occasionally competent.

        They did the Jedi so dirty. The council members are petty, the masters can’t defend themselves against a sith apprentice, and the knights are constantly taking Ls on screen. The only one who seems mostly competent so far is the padawan Jecki.
