Nikki: "Why don't people listen to kids?" Me: "Because people have forgotten that they are kids who just want to be heard." They're too busy having the power to be heard to listen to those who haven't yet the power to be heard. That's why. (One thing I couldn't stand as a child is the way I was treated by adults, as if I wasn't yet a legitimate human being because I hadn't yet reached some imaginary threshold that they themselves made up in their adulthood. Now, I am the adult, as the child, and I say that you were always full of it. Somehow, deep down, I always knew that you were making it all up. Now, I am the proof that you did, because there are no answers here in adulthood. Now that I am here, I know that you were lying the whole time. They raised me in deception... They fed me with lies... Now... It's my time to shine. Enjoy the cemetery, my parents who are also children... This is my world now, and I'm handing it down to my own children with better opportunities for understanding than you ever dreamed of offering to me.)

The fact that Jacen could hear lightsabers certainly makes me think it was definitely the real World Between Worlds.

I believe the particular scene from Clone Wars was from the Battle of Ryloth. New content but fit into the story previously seen.

Rex was the Commander of The 501st. The Clone Unit that served with Anakin and Ashoka. He was a new character in The Clone Wars cartoon. He and Ashoka were at the Seige of Mandolore at the same time as Revenge of The Sith, which is the storyline created to tell why neither is in the movie. Obi-wans counterpart to Rex is Commander Cody who we see called by name in ROTS when he shoots at Obi-Wan with a canon shortly after giving him back his lightsaber when Order 66 is called for. Rex is in Rebels, and is said at the end of Rebels to be a white haired, bearded commando we see with Han, Luke, and Leia on Endor.

the way he mater of factly said " trust me, you lost" cracked me up

He is the father.

@@warheartwarheart5389 Nah fam, that's all cap.

@@warheartwarheart5389 Lucas never said any of this 💀💀

@@warheartwarheart5389cap

Anakin didn't mastered the light at all, he was pretty much groomed and brainwashed by Palpatin since the very beginning. Anakin tipped the balance toward the dark side and made it rule the entire galaxy. That's no balance at all.

Yea but what did it mean in the meantime when they where in clone wars it was old ahsoka right and that anankin was the same anakin as in the fight before right they both where in these memories at that moment

@@maxvanweert4498Wut?

@@maxvanweert4498 wanna try that again? Maybe using sentences?

I second that

​@@maxvanweert4498can't understand what you said

I really hope that he sees these reactions, I know that Jon sent to some to Mark after Mando season 2 finale.

Agreed!

Now hopefully star wars fans will stop bullying actors because they disliked the performance or character. Its what star wars fans are best at unfortunately

Hayden finally got to flex completely without George holding him back.

seeing hayden reprise his role gives the same nostalgia vibes as the when the og spidermen showed up in no way home

They should've dubbed Ashley's voice over young Ahsoka, who looked really weird too, no cosplayer has ever nailed young, skinny Ahsoka, why you don't do that in live action without CGI.

Pretty sure that's what Anakin meant when he said "I've heard that before." Which, to me, means that this IS Anakin - post RotJ, and not just in Ahsoka's mind. I mean, Luke could have told her that but that feels like something that makes more sense if it was actually Anakin and genuinely was completing her training by teaching her to let go of her fear of turning into him, and like how Vader told Obi Wan that his turn wasn't his fault it was helping her let go of her guilt.

In my head I thought Anakin reminisced about rebels when ahsoka fought Darth Vader, she said something about not wanting to fight him correct me if I'm wrong.

I thought she was familiar😊

No wonder she looked familiar!!! from green to orange, i wonder which color she'll do next lol!

Was just about to type this. She's got quite a resume at just 16.

Looking forward to next episode. I had guess that the space whales would help some how after episode 4.

One to watch - a star in the making

Yes. It's a thankyou letter to the fans of the two animated series for sticking with it and supporting them.

why ratings so low tho? Another flop for disney.

@@lalareal180 who cares? I’m thoroughly enjoying it. That’s kind of the point.

You mean Anakin😊but yes he still got it💪

​@@tiagoalves2056 Nah they meant Hayden haha. He was really into learning the choreography and swordfighting during the prequels.

@@yetibeardson1168facts Hayden took to it better than almost anyone. Although I think Mark and Ewan are right there. Ray park doesn’t count lol

Ariana Greenblatt. She was young Gamora in Infinity War

​@@c-mcShe was also the daughter in barbie

@@mrknowhere6457 haven't seen it

@@c-mc I don’t know why anyone would watch it 😂

How did you see Episode 2 at 7 if you're only 21 now? I'm 28 and I was 7 when I saw it.

Wait nevermind... you meant the animated one. My bad 😅

It was Mando that got me to fall in love with Star Wars and watch the other shows. But I’d already seen the movies several years previously.

​@@samsonk.167I thought the same thing LMAO I was about to get hyped

I was 21 in 08 when that hit theatres, I'm now 36

What are you talking about his skills are fantastic? How would we know considering how woeful Ashoka’s were. I could swing a broomstick around and look better.

@@daggaboomit really wasn’t that bad. It wasn’t prequel level but it is easily within acceptable boundaries for starwars

Me too, he finally got to flex without George holding him back. There’s more dialogue from Hayden from trailers so we know he hopefully appears again.

@@Psyfi85 Yes, when he was screaming about Obi-Wan holding him back in AOTC, he was actually talking about George and his shitty dialogue.

@@LetsGetitBoah so true

There are some lines from a TV spot that wasn't in the episode. So he definitely is coming back.

Anakin was 19 when Ahsoka became his apprentice.

Not only Jacen, but under his guidance, Hera sensed it as well, enough to spur on the search.

Dude, Huyang is a mood in any scene he is in

@@johans3164 I mean true.

How can he hear a duel in what is basically a different dimension though? Force users can essentially read thoughts and emotions so doesn't it make more sense he could sense her thoughts as she was nearly dying and having a 'life flashing before her eyes' moment?

@@yetibeardson1168it’s possible, but the world between worlds in rebels actually pulled someone in before

@@mrcheese5383 Not only that, but Ezra used it to time travel in Rebels, the way I see it it’s both The Afterlife and a Time Machine helping someone like Ahsoka deal with unresolved issues. Also, in Rebels we see it as a place that transcends Time itself, and not just an Afterlife pocket Dimension space in that sense.

@@yetibeardson1168 Another big hint that this whole thing is taking place in the WBW is Anakin's flippant reply to Ahsoka when she says that she won't fight him. He says, "I've heard that before" which is a direct reference to when his son Luke said a similar thing to him in RotJ. If this was all in Ahsoka's mind, I doubt that she would have known of this beforehand.

Season 1/2 of the mandalorian, Andor, and this episode have been some of the best star wars put to screen

Andor is awesome and not that long ago.

why ratings so low then? Another flop. face it the world is tired of mediocre star wars shows!

Lmao lowkey making a Lotr reference 🤣

LotR reference in a good way

I mean, would Jacen have heard it in if she was in the World Between Worlds either? Like, it's supposed to be a separate plane of existence connected to the "real" world right? So either way it's wild he heard it. As for her body not being detectable, it could be that while they were scanning she was technically dead or her heart maybe stopped and the near death experience was seeing Anakin and reliving Clone Wars moments. After all, your life supposedly flashes before your eyes as one is dying right?

When she said "I wont fight you" and Anakin said "I have heard that before" kinda shows its not in her head

@@ben1ben2ben1 Possibly, but also Ahsoka at this point has spent some time with Luke and very well could have had some conversations about his experience with Vader/Anakin.

Yes. That would be really cool. Here’s a dark thought, what if Ahsoka send Jacen to Luke’s academy?

I agree, on both fronts. If he ends up at Luke's academy

@@NikkiStevenReact obviously this could happen which would be bad. I think that’s the beauty of what Dave is setting up. We are going to travel between galaxies, leaving our current galaxy and all its future entanglements behind. All these characters that we’ve been introduced to within these last whatever years since Mando’s debut. They can all live on in new exciting experiences outside this current Star Wars galaxy. It’s all super exciting as a fan of Star Wars.

@@NikkiStevenReact It could happen, but Filoni is very much George's apprentice and believes in the poetry of Star Wars; hence Ezra will be the one to train his master's son.

I was getting young Gamora vibes!

And she fine af too

@@brandondetroitfanmichaels4325 I personally had no idea until all my friends went, "Young Gamora!" and I was like "yeah... of course... I knew that too..." haha.

@@TheDeadSpider You into 16 year olds?

@@DerHerrMitR Maybe he is 16 as well? Personally i thought that the actress is like 14 tho. She looks younger than 16.

He was supposed to take over The Father's duties during the clone wars, but I don't think this is it. He may be closer to The Son, since he manifested his "dark side" in the vision.

​@@DefaultName-du3kruhhh he also manifested the light side? So he is like the father

@@Thiago_Alves_SouzaHe manifested as a regular ghost first then the dark came out. Nothing about him screamed light side avatar, thats what Ahsoka became.

@@DefaultName-du3kr and his regular self is the light side Jedi wtf are you on about or you're just being argumentative?

@@Thiago_Alves_SouzaNo bro, what I am saying is him being his regular self doesn't exactly make him a light side avatar. He is not at peace in those visions but in war.

You copied and pasted your comment on another vid. No hate I just noticed it

I think it's possible. And doesn't bother me if that's the case. However personally I kind of like the idea that it was all in her head more just because it becomes a literal battle of ones emotions, just using Anakin as the figurative as well as literal personification of her unresolved trauma. Either way, one of the best Star Wars things in awhile by far.

Disappointing 'Ahsoka' Viewership Spells Trouble!

If I remember correctly, it's spelled Jacen.

thanks, I wasn't sure how his name was spelled!@@CloneCommanderCrater1102

And the teen daughter in Barbie

He'll be doing a movie in the next 5/6 years once they build all this up a bit more in the series.

he is a hack! Horrible!

The girl playing teen Ahsoka is kid Gamora from Infinity War, Ariana Greenblatt. She's 16 now, and I think she had just the right face shape for a direct translation of the animated CW Ahsoka. Also, it is totally Tem's voice in Rex.

My feels - I have not watched "The Clone Wars", but for the last few months I have been deep-diving into the fanfic fandom and while I was aware that Clone wars existed, it was not really my Star Wars (I am an OT girl, I was old enough to understand movies to see RotJ in cinemas the first time), but I feel my recent attention to CW content has given me an outline of how awesome the series was, and I have watched various clip vids here on YT, so being able to see it in live action is still very much a happy thing, and I undetsand how the relationship between Anakin and Ahsoka is such a SW mainstay now, so some really good scenes of them together LA is a treat that makes me happy. I am wondering what the effect this will have on fanfic will be. I already know one person on my fanfic discord group (it's home to a circle of writers whose works I read) was very "Live Action Suitless Vader!".

The wooden acting of both Hayden and Natalie Portman (combined with the absurd dialogue) in the Prequels justified some of that mockery. Having characters like Jar Jar added rancid icing to the overcooked cake.

Appa got comedic timing

Surprised he didn't talk about order 66 with Ashoka or they fact clones didn't kill him but other jedi

Toughts are also part of the Force! Master Jedi can sence conflict within other Jedi! Maybe Jacen has the power to sence the conflict within ppl!

​@@bullwyrkI guess but the episode made it pretty obvious that it was actually Anakin and not just a vision.

@@jimmylopez433 can you tell me when it made it that clear?

@@bullwyrkso the kid can sense conflict and hear “lightsabers clashing” lol and so can the mom? What?!

@@angelbedolla347 Well that can be explained by the force arround the kid influencing Hera. 😁

To tell a whole story you need to know all of the pieces. Yes I would love a scene between Ashoka and Sabine when things were good, or even to of seen a flash back to when Sabine probably blew up at Ashoka for not letting her go to her family. Imagine that, Ashoka tells her to stay, and complete her training, convinces Sabine not to go the way of Luke, and Luke's worst nightmare in Sabine comes true. Because she wasn't there, she couldn't even have a chance to save her family. So she is distraught, she is angry, she is hurt and upset at Ashoka, because she can't handle all of this pain. You know Ashoka is feeling a bit of guilt in not letting Sabine go, but also knowing had she, Sabine would be dead. Most likely. However, all of the previous episodes have been laying the foundation, and giving us hints at things. Mainly that Ashoka has been depressed, guilt ridden, and diminished. Now she has faced all of that, and of her greatest defeat, she will rise and become the Jedi she was always meant to be. After a line people I think will skip over is when Ashoka suggests that Jacen go onto her ship, and he is like "i've seen a starship before.' Ashoka leans down. "A Jedi's starship?" Remember, for a very long time now Ashoka has renounced the Jedi, and being one. However, all her life's journey has led her to being A JEDI. Clone Wars, Rebels, the Ashoka Novel, which is a great read, all of this hasn't taken her away from being a Jedi as much as she may have wanted to, but has taught her to be one of the Greatest of the Jedi. In EU, in particularly the Old Republic, the Force itself has been as much of a teacher to some Jedi, if not more than an actual Jedi Master could have been. Its funny when you laugh at it, saying we just needed patience to see the whole arc, but that is exactly what was needed. We in todays age, feel so much ownership and want different things from Star Wars, that we've forgotten that we are the audience. And when someone that truly gets it like Dave Filoni, and John Favereau, that we need to sit back and let them tell us the whole story. Because despite many of our ages. We are acting like impatient children, and wanting to know the ending without seeing the Journey that gets us there. This doesn't excuse things that disney has done, at all. But Dave Filoni has not let us down. In my opinion. Even the "filler" episodes of Clone Wars, and Rebels still added to the over all affect that led us to love both Series as whole.

me when i have no media literacy skills

Same actress played both

Have you seen rebels and clone wars?

Well, that's why Anakin shows that to her. He sees that's what is holding her back and forces her to confront it one last time.

Her eyes went Sith yellow before deciding to toss saber away. Very reminiscent of ROTJ and it’s like Vader saw Luke in her before going back to Anakin.
