“Jacen’s too young to travel between galaxies” No, no, the issue is Chopper. No galaxy should be exposed to that level of malice.

Nobody can swing a lightsaber like Hayden lol

Seeing how much more joyous and confident Ahsoka the White is than Ahsoka the Grey was is just incredible. Filoni’s whole plan for her Gandalf parallel absolutely paid off.

Anakin flashing to Vader & back again while "training" Ahsoka.... Palpatine flashing to Sidious & back again while tempting Ezra.... Poetry 🤌🏼🤌🏼

Hayden nailed it! Something tells me that wasn’t the last time we see him this season either.

Shout out to Ariana Greenblatt, the young woman playing kid Ahsoka she absolutely crushed it. Loving the continuing redemption arc for Hayden too given how much hate he copped during Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith. Lastly we finally got Rex not just once but twice. First just chilling in the background in the first flashback and then our boy finally saying something in the Siege of Mandalore one. Dave just reminding us why we love him

It's crazy that this show has brought two animated shows to live action, The Clone wars and Rebels.

That Actress played Young gamora and in Barbie, now young Ahsoka insane run🔥

We finally got her! Ahsoka the White!! 😁😁 Also, I think Anakin's lesson was about the difference between "surviving" and actually _"living"_ . Which is why she was much brighter and - for lack of a better word - _livelier_ after returning from the World Between Worlds.

Angela: “how do you knock on a whale and say ‘excuse me sir, follow that ring’” Ahsoka: *knock* Excuse me sir, follow that ring

Force theme with Jacen, so amazing! Such an amazing episode. In the beginning, Huyang made me so sad. I felt so bad for him.

I loved seeing the different styles of fighting. Young Anakin was swing around but Vader Anakin was brutal and powerful with his strikes. Also, you can clearly see a change in Ahsoka at the end. She was happier and lighter than the other episodes. Anakin helped her refocus her life.

I feel like Filoni was making it pretty clear this was NOT a "dream" or a "vision" by having Jacen sense/hear what we know is happening. It's the WORLD BETWEEN WORLDS. And Force sensitive people can touch it better than those who are not. But it's clearly very real, not something in Ahsoka's head.

The way Hayden’s whole face changed when his saber turned red was perfect.

that was what was missing in her training. In other words, her training was incomplete until this was part saber training, and mind training. It's also you can see he loves her like his little sister. which she really is

Absolutely incendiary Star Wars content 😭❤️ it was perfect

I saw a quote that said “We saw in this episode the Darth Vader that Obi Wan denied Palpatine” absolutely breathtaking!

Ahsoka travelling in the mouth of the Purrgil can also be seen as a direct reference to the biblical Jonah and the whale. Accepting his mission after he got enlightened.

I literally got chills when Jacen was using the Force instinctively and a variation of the Force Theme swells up in the background, that doesn't happen all too often with Disney Star Wars. Seeing Anakin in his stages from "good" Anakin, Darth Anakin and flashes of Darth Vader ( how cool was that???) was just amazing but also how he figuratively kicks Ahsoka in the butt to get over herself and start living again, to have the confidence that she canbe a teacher and Jedi and doesn't have to be just the warrior. Ahsoka accepting this and rejecting the temptation ( did you notice the moment where she nearly gives into her anger and her eyes flash briefly to Sith Red?) by throwing away the Lightsaber Luke style and completing her training. She's a full blown Jedi now and ready to be a true Master to Sabine.

In my opinion, this episode was therapy for Ahsoka. For so long she, like Obi Wan, blamed herself for her master’s downfall and turn to the dark side. Seeing his projection automatically turned her back into that innocent girl we knew throughout Clone Wars. And having to see everything again and relive some of that trauma during this episode is definitely a way of her getting closure. She finally sees her master again, not as Vader like their last encounter. But as the person she knew, his true self Anakin Skywalker. By this point, she knows he redeemed himself thanks to Luke, we just haven’t seen that part.

Anakin learning the lesson from Luke in ROTJ and then teaching it to Ahsoka is one of the most star wars things I've seen in a long time. Hope.

It was cool to see Ahsoka smile again and be herself again

On my 10th birthday in 1977, Star wars had been out for a while. My favorite uncle, he was the best, took me to see Star wars. Every single time I see Lucas film glisten across the screen. It takes me back to 10 years old with Quran. He was gone way too soon. I have always been a sensitive guy, and I cry a little easier than I should. You cry at all the right spots, don't be ashamed of that, I'm not either. It's what makes us human. When I was watching the end of your reaction, and you were talking about how great Hayden's role has been in this so far, I agreed and I was thinking literally and he finally has well written dialogue. I'm not a hater on George Lucas, but he's not a master of dialogue. He is a master of the universe he created. I wish he had better writers working alongside him because that's the one thing. Have been absolutely killing it at, mandalorian, boba Fett, Obi-Wan and now ahsoka. The dialogue and the vision has been extraordinary. It has the feel of the original trilogy with a little extra on the dialogue sauce. I'm happy for Hayden as well, he got far too much grief for the original trilogy which had its flaws. None of which were Hayden. Since surviving COVID 3 years ago, I can't control my tears. Sometimes. I cry a dumb commercial sometimes and I don't even know why. But I happily let the tears flow when things inspire me or move me. And getting to experience Star wars like I'm 10 again is nothing short of extraordinary. Also loving Battlestar which came out when I was 11. The reboot was how I saw it as a kid. I didn't realize how ridiculous and cheesy the original series was, thank you for providing some entertainment to me as I continue to fight to recover. You are awesome and I love seeing it through your eyes. The good news is we still have half the season left.

Dude the cinematography was just….just…..🤌🏼!!!!!!!

13:45 Rex can also be seen in the 1st scene with young Ahsoka in his old armor.

14:23 : We call this the padawan punt, it was a crucial move developed during order 66

Best Star Wars Streaming Episode, Ever. If there was one thing I wanted from Star Wars was another Big Brother & Little Sister conversation between these too. And the fact that he said, “I’m here to complete your training,” and “I haven’t taught you everything yet” warms my heart. I’m an old guy and she’s my favorite - so to have her (my hero) tested yet again by the best there ever was, warms my heart so much. She’s even better now - mentally, physically, spiritually and ready.

Regarding Sabine's decision to hand over the orb, I think it makes perfect sense; especially for a seasoned veteran like her. Destroying the orb means completely ending any chance of finding Ezra. Handing the orb over only just brings the Morgan and her team one step closer towards bringing Thrawn back. As Sabine knows, the bad guys make small steps towards their goal all the time. Yet, she and the others have always managed to find a way to wrest victory from the jaws of defeat. It would make less sense for Sabine to be so completely unwilling to take any risk when it means completely abandoning people she cares about.

This episode was freaking amazing. Holy crap. Dave Filoni needs to take over all of Star Wars now.

FLG - "I'm gonna be crying this whole episode" me - "Same"

What? Its 2:18am. This is waaayyy early for me superstar. Ok, I’m in.

I loved the small touch of Ahsoka's eyes briefly turning yellow when she holds Anakin's red saber to his throat. You can miss it because it looks like a reflection but if you look close it's definitely there.

Ariana Greenblatt played young Ahsoka. She also played young Gamora in Avengers: Infinity War😮 Her father, Shon(a friend of mine on Facebook who I got to hang out with at a couple conventions), played John Doe in Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare👍

Now THAT was an amazing episode. I think Dave was messing with everyone when we saw Anakin’s face at the end of Part 4 and it was just fine throughout Part 5. Good one, Dave! 😂

I just know Kanan would be proud of Jacen here 🥲 I hope he gets trained and becomes a jedi too.

She goes into the wbw as ahsoka the grey and comes out ahsoka the white. She blamed herself for his downfall but he showed her the past and she seen he was destined to fall b4 she even left the order so when she comes out she no longer blames herself. Also if u pay attention anakins eyes werent sith yellow they were red like the son of mortis, and ahsokas eyes turn sith yellow for a split second at the end of their engagement.

In this episode Anakin teaches Ahsoka how to live, not just survive. Essentially, her character arc in this show revolves around how she had ceased to embrace life fully. In the initial episode, Sabine highlights her likely loneliness. Due to the trauma she's endured, the burden of guilt she carries, and her self-doubt stemming from Anakin's transformation, she has distanced herself from others. Ahsoka has effectively halted her genuine living and allowed her past to shape her identity. Baylan's accusation of her leaving behind a legacy of death and destruction strikes a chord with Ahsoka, as she was once a child soldier and may feel that combat is her sole purpose (as evidenced by her conversation with Anakin in this episode). Anakin reassures her that she's more than that, just as he's more than just Vader. Ahsoka must make the choice to continue living in the present and move forward.

Growing up watching the first Clone Wars film. Then the entire series on CN. Collecting the Lego sets and creating my own battle scenarios as a kid... the nostalgia this scene brought for me 🥲 CAPTAIN REX!!!! 🥹

It's good to see Hayden never lose he's lightsaber skill gave me chills

I didn't start Ashoka until yesterday, because I hadn't seen Rebels yet. I was so glad I waited and saw that first, for this episode alone; to say nothing of the others in this series

I’m getting the vibe of ahsoka and Anakin being the new Mortis characters, with Anakin being the father and a balance of the force, Ahsoka being the daughter aka the light side of the force, and IF they make starkiller canon and have him be anakins other apprentice, or have him be darth Vaders apprentice, he’d represent the dark side of the force

As I was watching this episode I was thinking "Funnylilgal is going to cry at this part" or smile at others lol

This was the best lightsaber fight... First peak Anakin vs Ahsoka, then Snips with the green lightsaber back in the Clone Wars, then the Siege of Mandaslore, and finally... AnaVader vs Ahsoka in the world between worlds. That final fight was so perfect with Anakin/Vader fighting with Anakin's full agility and skill along with Vader's ferocity and power being Ahsoka's final Jedi challenge. So perfect!

We got Ahsoka the White. A great part for the actress Ariana Greenblatt who played young Ahsoka.

As someone who considers Ahsoka to be one of the greatest characters in Star Wars, this episode had me in my emotions. When she was clothed in her Ahsoka the White clothing I was a happy mess of emotions. This was special. Thank you, Dave Filoni!!!

I felt like Ahsoka's Jedi robes changing from dark to light represents her forgiving herself and Anakin and completing her training. She made the same choice Luke did when he fought Vader.

This episode was amazing seeing young Ahsoka live action and the battle between Anakin, and love seeing Ahsoka The White. Shes now allegiance to the Force, reflecting her journey and brushes with death. a fun fact .... Ariana Greenblatt who played young Ahsoka in this episode also played young Gamora in "Avengers: Infinity War. Keep up the amazing work.

This episode was so freaking awesome. The shots of Anakin was perfect where you got to see the half Vader half Anakin. But I wish this was a movie instead

I discovered you recently because out of the blue, YT suggested your Galactica mini-series reaction and I MISS that show so I watched it and I've been loving following along as you watch that. And here we are, your video is showing up even before that of Reel Rejects (Greg Alba) or Jaby Koay (with Achara Kirk)! KUDOS! Love it! Love your laughter, love your tears. Keep it up, funnysnipsgal.

This is why we need more people who love the Star Wars world actually be involved with the show. Dave Filoni needs to continue being part of the live adaptations and not just the animations. This is what we want. Good character development so when we come to moments like these we are screaming with excitement because we know what it means.

That "May the force be with you" From Hera made me cry

This is the best episode in the last few years that they filmed Star Wars and the most pleasant thing is that Hayden has the longest screen time in episode 5 because the last time he had a lot of screen time it was in Revenge of the Sith and now in Ahsoka episode 5 it’s a great episode especially the flashback where the small Ahsoka actress got into the role very well, they chose an actress for young Ahsoka Hayden, as always, did a great job in the role

Its been half an hour since I watched this myself and I STILL have chills!

Anakin has Mastered both the Light and Dark side of the force. Thus bringing "Balance to the Force"

Am I the only one who thinks that, albeit small, David Tennant's performance is one of the best parts of the show. I love Huyang. Great episode. I didn't realize how much I wanted a live action Clone Wars until now. Young Ahsoka, and Hayden, were great.

The flickering and seeing Vader was awesome!

YES! I AM SO HYPED THAT YOU UPLOADED YOUR REACTION TONIGHT! I have a busy day tomorrow and was worried I'd have to wait all day to see it. 🎉 🎉 🎉 this episode was AMAZING!!!

At the end of episode 4, I don't think the effect on Anakin's face was to "deage" Anakin but rather to give us Ahsoka's idealistic recollection of him. We see many different sides of Anakin during that entire sequence in eps 4&5. Hero, villain, someone consumed by the Dark Side and someone who has been brought back to the Light.

So fun fact, the guy who plays Carson Teva, Paul Sun-Hyung Lee, is playing Uncle Iroh in the upcoming Netflix live-action adaptation of Avatar: The Last Airbender

There is nothing more magical than the "Binary sunset" Seeing a younger Ahsoka brought a flood of fond memories from her introduction to this universe. Before this series started the only thing about the live action version of her that didn't go over well with me was the deepness of her voice. I accepted it anyways. With this episode, a younger version, with a closer voice tone that Ashley Eckstein gave us, I'm now totally content with everything about her. A wonderful reaction, Angela!! Take care!!

Great reaction! Young Ahsoka, Rex, Anakin ... and the end was pure "Rebels". I had a shimmer in my eyes the whole time while I couldn't stop smiling, 56 yo fanboy, that I am. 😄

Same reaction here... 1º time I saw Star Wars I was 9 years old in 1980 and it got into me. Today I woke up and saw Hayden do his part as Anakin and I really went into tears... and yes, Chopper is a war criminal LOL... young Ahsoka was amazing!!!! Really felt like going back to the Clone Wars.

Hopefully, this show can attract more fans to the animated series. Clone Wars, Rebels, & Bad Batch- while at times, sure, they can be hit or miss- but they have some of my all-time favorite moments in all of Star Wars. Obi-Wan & Maul on Tatooine. Kanan on the fuel depot. Crosshair & Mayday. Ahsoka leaving Anakin & the Order. Ahsoka & Rex... I mean, when they hit, they hit hard & full & deep.

Young Ahsoka was the same actress as Young Gamora. And apparently in Barbie, too, but I haven't seen that yet.

I’m not gonna lie, the last 2 episodes of Ahsoka is the most excited I’ve ever felt watching Star Wars.

Hayden was brilliant! If Dave, not George directed the prequel I think Hayden's acting would get the respect it deserves. Such an amazing episode. Your reactions summed it up perfectly

I don't normally watch react videos, but this one, it's like reliving the reveals over again. It's absolutely emotional each time and a masterpiece.

I totally get why they premiered this in theaters. Dave Filoni was just playing with his action figures in this one.

Some of best Star Wars I’ve ever seen.

13:54 I really like that they brought in Temuera Morrison. Dee Bradley Baker was imitating Morrison's voice in the cartoons - Morrison has always been the live-action face and voice of the clones, and now he gets to voice perhaps the most legendary of all of them.

My supervisor really asked my if I was okay, I told him "yes, why do you ask". He said "you look like someone who just been crying". And boy yes I did cry watching this episode but I really can't tell him that now can I lmao

Best reaction video to this episode. So many teary eyes for this one. Especially this review. 😄😄

14:36 I love the editing they did to combine Hayden’s voice with the distortion of Vader’s voice

This episode had me so hard not to cry too much at times. Seeing Hayden with his usual fighting style was so amazing to see again. I will be forever grateful to Dave for bring amazing Star Wars content to all the fans. Absolutely love your reactions as always!

Carson: "Oh, more space wizard shit 🙄"

Love those scenes between Anakin and Ahsoka. Shows her hidden fear of inheriting Anakins fate since he was her master. A fate she sees as a result of being in a war, which is the same situation she may end up in if Thrawn returns. Hard not to forget what happened to your master in such a similar situation.

And there it is. Sometimes it's just nice to be wrong. This episode was exactly what I wanted out of a show about Ahsoka. Everything from here on out is just gravy.

(In T'challa's voice) "Get this man(Jacen Syndulla) a Lightsaber!" Also love the "Ahsoka the White" outfit!!

I’m so happy Hayden is getting the love and respect he deserves after the hate he got from the prequels

"What a beautiful moment..." that you CUT, thus robbing it of context, relevance and all meaning. Well done.

I just loved the whole "Master and Apprentice" interaction, that is such a staple in SW jedi canon. Anakin - Ahsoka - Sabine, all defined by the lesson they received by their masters, changed by the life and expiriences they made, to the good and bad. And that young Ahsoka casting was just spot on, she looked liek the animated one.

This is storytelling. This is fantasy, the power of imagination. This is Star Wars. The flashes between Anakin and Vader are great. The dreamlike backdrop reminds me of Kurosawa's films. Filoni has closed a chapter in the history of the characters. Dunno if it's the end, but I'm satisfied. Beautiful episode, simply magical.

Incredible.

This episode was so amazing. The: feels, action, music, story and wonder is everything great about Star Wars!

I was blown away by this Episode 5 of Ahsoka. It left me completely speechless. I can’t wait to see what happens on Tuesday. This episode left me with the same feeling I had when I watched Revenge Of The Sith for the first time in 2005. I also was so happy to see Hayden Christensen really be able to act his heart out as Anakin. He was so naturalistic and charismatic in the episode. He brought so much nuance and depth to his line delivery. It felt like major redemption for him after years of many people complaining he was stiff and wooden as Anakin, he was a bad actor and ruined Star Wars. I’ve never agreed with that. He blew me away for years with his excellent acting performances in Life As A House And Shattered Glass, not to mention the TV show he starred in: Higher Ground. Everytime I rewatch these all I’m still amazed at his talent and intensity as an actor

I love watching people that let emotions take over. You are a beautiful person inside and out. Cheers

I really hope we get to see Ashoka dealing with what happened with her and Anakin in the Rebels episode "Twilight of the Apprentice". It just feels unresolved.

I'm General Kenobi Cosplayer... watching Ep.5 flashback Make me cried. . For so long since Revenge of sith... thank U Dave

In Chopper's Friend/Foe Identification Database, Hera and Jacen are designated "friendly." Literally everyone else is designated "expendable."

Ahsoka refusing to embrace the dark side completed her training, now she is "Ahsoka the White".

That timing for "Shot!" with what happened in the next second, was 👩🏼‍🍳😙👌🏼.

Dude this episode was incredible 😭

Ahsoka The White is here now she's more like herself thx to Anakin helping her pass her jedi trials and speaking of he can tap into the dark side at will that's so cool

I cried the ENTIRE episode! Lol Absolutely amazing.

Great episode! Enjoying the series the more it goes. I start crying every time I see you cry. I enjoy watching you enjoy this series. You're one of my favorite people. I agree with you about the different character interactions and the writing. Much Love to you and all the best. May The Force Be With You ❤🙂❤

Holy Avengers! It's young Gamora! Perfect casting for young Ahsoka!

I love Carson Tevas reaction.... Why do we have to go fly scans????? Well - Jacen has abilities, his father was a Jedi.... OH OK!!!! LET'S GO.... As soon as he learned that Jacen had force abilities, he just went with it.... I thought last weeks episode was peak Star Wars, but this episode is just.... I'm at a loss for words.... I mean... LIVE ACTION CLONE WARS ANAKIN AND SNIPS (AND REX)!!!! AHSOKA IN THE SIEGE OF MANDALORE!!!! OMG, I had to see it 3 times, before I could see it clearly through my happy tears!!!!

14:09 Btw, did you know that according to “Bespin Bulletin” there was a fight scene shot between Anakin (as Hayden Christensen) and Ahsoka (as Savannah Steyn instead of Ariana Greenblatt, at least for that scene) on Mustafar in an alternate-reality-like setting during the "world-between-world like" moments, which they said was cut from the actual episode. In that scene Anakin would have showed her that she couldn't have changed his fate to become Vader even if she were there at that point, which would have taken away a lot of her guilt of her not having been there and not being able to save him, resulting in the now more light-hearted Ahsoka. They cut that scene, maybe cause it wasn't really a memory and/or cause Anakin's message/lesson was a different one? Though I still hope they would release it as a separate video on YT or sth like that, cause I would really like to see what that scene (and Savannah Steyn as Ahsoka) would have looked like and it also explains a bit better imo why Ahsoka is more enlightened and happy at the end.

Magnificent episode. The more animated series you watched the more rewarding it was to watch. I think Herra is clearly reluctant to have Jacen follow the path of the Jedi

Gods this was a good episode, the fighting, the live action clone wars, how young Ahsoka really was, Hayden just friggen amazing. But weirdly it was the purgil theme that made me cry. Following in John Williams footsteps is an impossible task damn was that a fine piece of music. And seeing you react the same way i did was just the cherry on top. I'm just so happy.
