Who says Qimir is Evil?? By that logic, Osha was already the Padawan of Evil when she has Sol as her Jedi Master. Osha used her anger to channel The Force to kill someone. She left the Jedi because she could never suppress her anger and guilt to follow the Jedi path. Despite being a very powerful Force wielder. Qimir offers her an alternative path to wielding The Force that is not as binary as Jedi or Sith.

@@Hellohellonada Yeah, I could definitely see that. The episode to episode run time was too short. Had they been longer, I think they could have added more context to scenes, characters, relationships, motivations so the ties and connections didn’t seem quite as tenuous. But, the show reminded me of how TCW and Rebels would use these storytelling shorthands to get messages across. We’d only get a scene or two and that was supposed to signify the tension between two characters or them building a connection, etc. I think we were far more willing to accept this in a cartoon format whereas we seem to find it a source of frustration in a live action one.

I think the concept of “Going to the Dark Side” is merely Jedi dogma. Qimir learned that harnessing anger and fear and desire can be a viable path to wielding The Force and that it’s not as binary as Jedi or Sith. We also see that with Sol - Sol just believes that he must be purely altruistic because he doesn’t channel his emotions to fuel his use of The Force. Other than that, his obsession to train a Padawan is not that different than Qimir’s desire to train an Acolyte. Sol’s obsession probably had more negative repercussions than Qimir’s machinations.

The best thing about the series is that it's over, and now fans can't stop bitching about it. I liked the show. I appreciate any exercise that expands the lore. It's wasn't a great show, but it still managed to keep me entertained. Just like the Kenobi show, this story could have been better as a two and a half hour film. But alas, it is what it is. If there is a second season, I'm confident the creative team will take the criticism to improve the execution. In the end, it's a matter of execution. The pieces are there, but the mayor flaw was the execution in building the show. But as always, the worst thing is the whiny fans.

@Nyx__ Ай бұрын

I agree Osha was maybe a bit too casual with Qimir on the undisclosed planet, but to be fair. She wasn't really friends with those people for years, and held a lot of hatred towards them and probably associated them with what she could never have, and what her entire family basically died for. It makes sense for them both to put aside their difference to get to Brendok. Qimir even says they'll see who gets to her first.

@Dire_Pack Ай бұрын

@@edwardmccoy490 I think it was just she ignited it before it was fully bled, so it continued bleeding and showed us how it works, however I did see a difference in how the blade looked afterwards so maybe it damaged the crystal and not the Saber. Most sabers are made of stronger materials, but enough blunt damage can still hurt them.

@edwardmccoy490 Ай бұрын

@Dire_Pack so I get that Disney is just going to keep changing what ever isn't in live action. But I was under the impression you had to specifically focus your hate anger and pain through the crystal, in comics vader goes through alot to bleed his, in jedi survivor we see dagen pull his crystal out to focus on it and bleed it. This just seam more like she just accidently bled the crystal without trying. Again I say that same thing would have happend with anakin during his turn the only difference between the two is the lighrsaber was slightly damaged

Check the spin season 2 will bring. Qimir is Plagueis Apprentice, he's the one who killed Plagueis in his sleep. Qimir is actually the one who trained palpatine. Remember, in Revenge of the Sith, Papls tells Anakin his "mentor" taught him everything about the force, he never said Plagueis taught him. 😮😢

@DylanMadd Ай бұрын

I agree. Whenever I bring it up, someone tells me Palpatine literally SAYS he was Plaguis’s apprentice. That’s it’s cannon. And I can’t say I ever know what they’re talking about. For whatever reason everyone believes it’s the case. I never ever understood it that way & think there’s plenty of leeway to make new stories.

I think Plagueis's inclusion kind of makes sense. Qimir is probably his mind-wiped puppet (if Qimir could wipe Mae's memory, then so could he). I recall Qimir saying he is seeking/wants the power of two. Plagueis might want to study and replicate it so he can create the chosen one.

The only time bleeding a Kyber crystal red has ever been done right was in the Darth Vader canon comics. After Vader kills a Jedi without a weapon he’s then told by Emperor Palpatine that her has to take it to a place that is strong in the dark side of the force, Mustafar. He takes it deep into a cave and after he extracts the crystal from the saber he then channels all of his fear, anger and hatred into the crystal. He sees his memories of him and Padme and Obi-Wan and even a possible future of him turning against the emperor, tracking down Obi-Wan and kneels before him awaiting his judgment. Vader fights back against that vision and after an enormous amount of effort manages to bleed the crystal red. And sadly in both Jedi: Survivor and now The Acolyte, neither come even close to that incredibly powerful moment.

I thought the choreography and technical effects stuff was phenomenal. I love the heavy handed matrix wash. It was spooky and grim. It seems as though all of these new gen shows of the Starwars lore, are testing grounds to find these potential gems. Like growing crystals in a lab. The audience wants to see a movie or a show with all those matured elements (gems) in all their glory. If there was a way to combine all the best, tried tested true, elements all came together in one series. Then, wow !!!!!!!!! Supernova Starwars revival for the fans!!!!!!

Overall it was a pretty good show. I really don’t give a damn about Mae, and I still blame her for the fire and everything that happened, because she was too selfish to let Osha make her own choices. I believe Sol acted in self defense. Qimir and Osha are an interesting duo. I’m curious to see where the sith lineage goes from here because I’m pretty sure that was Plaeguis in the cave, and he then teaches Palpatine after he’s born. Maybe Qimir and Osha try to overthrow him and he kills them both? I’d love to see that Edit edit: new canon is that Qimir tells Plaeguis about the force divergence, and that’s how he learns to create life, which he then passes on to Palpatine. I know “Palpatine created anakin using the force” is only in the script for episode 3 but it’s canon for me, and this is a great lead up for that
