Greetings!

After watching the first episode a week ago that culminated in the establishment of the main narrative of the series which is finding Imperial Grand Admiral Thrawn. The first episode was also able to portray that the Galactic Republic was still recovering and a lot of loyal imperialists were everywhere.

In the first episode of "Ahsoka", the main narrative of the series was laid out (which is finding the lost Imperial Grand Admiral Thrawn). Aside from the main narrative, the personal narrative of Ahsoka and Sabine was also laid out. Another narrative is about the Dark/Fallen Jedi Baylan Skoll and Shin Hati (Master and Apprentice).

The second episode revolves around the quest of Ahsoka Tano and company to catch up with the entities who were involved in stealing the orb that contains the location of the Imperial Grand Admiral Thrawn. The second episode also shows that there are indeed people who are still loyal to the empire.

The second episode is equally interesting as the first one. It shows how knowledgeable Sabine Wren is able electronic and robotic. It impressed me when the two Dark Jedi went into a place that is like a worshipping place that was built by an ancient people from a distant galaxy according to Morgan Elsbeth.

I like how episode two shows Ahsoka's skill in seeing previous events like what she did when she returned to the house of Sabine Wren. I also like how episode two portrays the wisdom and knowledge of Ahsoka Tano despite that Anakin Skywalker was not able to finish her training.

I also like how the orb was activated finally showing the location of the grand admiral thrawn. Also, I like how the series portrays the great distance to be traveled by introducing the Eye of Sion which is an extragalactic vehicle capable of reaching the location of Imperial Grand Admiral Thrawn.

Finally, one of the things that I have been waiting for is for Ahsoka Tano to brandish her skill in a lightsaber duel which I liked very much because it shows the skill of Ahsoka Tano taking on two enemies at a time. But I am still expecting more explosive moves from Ahsoka. It seems that Ahsoka is not going all out in her second lightsaber battle.

I like the fact that Sabine Wren is finally accepting her fate to be Ahsoka's apprentice once again. I also like that she finally wears her Mandalorian armor.

I am sure there will be more fight scenes in the coming episode showing Sabine Wren's Mandalorian skill while incorporating her knowledge as a Padawan. I also like how a Jedi is sentimental about his upcoming duel with Ahsoka. Baylan Skoll was emotional about killing a Jedi since he himself of a Jedi, a fallen one that is.

All in all this episode has managed to get me still very interested in the series. It doesn't come up short or it doesn't disappoint on what track the series is going. The way the episode shows how the orb was activated is very nice. The script is also great. It also did a good job how incorporating the Mandalorian side of Sabine Wren and how she accepted her role, to be the apprentice of Ahsoka once more.

The way the two characters (Ahsoka and Sabine) mended their difference is very predictable yet very effective. I have actually seen a lot of that style which is very similar but still very effective in getting the interest of the viewers.

Given all the information that episode one and episode two have shown to viewers I am sure the the next episodes will be equally great or better because of the structure of how the two episodes were built. The phase of the story is very fast yet it is barely noticeable without leaving the viewers left hanging or bored.

The past two episodes have stayed true to the style of Star Wars that I have seen previously. The scenes, the technology, the dialogue, the sound effects, and the lightsaber duel have not shied away from being true to its roots.

What I am very much willing to see is Sabine Wren brandishing her Mandalorian skill along with her knowledge of the force and her ability to use the lightsaber. When it happens I am sure viewers will not be going to be disappointed. So, I am counting on the coming episodes to do just that.

"Ahsoka" is a must-watch Star Wars series. If you are a fan of Star Wars you should watch it because it is connected to The Mandalorian and the upcoming spin-off series. You need to see this series in order for you to understand the coming Star Wars series/movies of Star Wars because they are interconnected with each other.


That is all for now guys, catch you up with the next one. Wishing you all safety, good health, and abundance.

Ahsoka episode 2 I liked more the part of the people still adept to the empire in the noses of the new Republic evidencing their ineffectiveness and that the bureaucracy of the previous Republic is still their biggest mistake. On the other hand Ahsoka's skills with the saber and the force are impressive. Cheers, good review ✨

Same here, I like how episode 2 shows the fragility of the republic. In the case of Ahsoka I wanted to see more of her lightsaber skills. And I am very much curious what would a very skilled Sabine Wren look like (Mandalorian Skill Set + Jedi Skill Set).
