Underwhelming? At least a few clones got a happy ending. This series was about The Bad Batch, not what happens to all the Clone Wars members.

I was expecting crosshair to sacrifice himself but I liked this even better, these guys deserved a happy ending, especially crosshair, and I love the symbolism of him losing his hand and thus his tremor and thus his trauma

I'm honestly glad they didn't do us dirty and bring Tech back as an assassin, I would have been absolutely furious if they pulled that kind of story. But I loved how it ended, we didn't need a dark ending.

We really lost Tech though.

One of the best lines was when Crosshair asked who released the Zillow Beast, the other two said Omega without hesitation.

I personally like how they don’t have any big cameos, it kept the focus on where it needed to be, the bad batch

I think the biggest problem was all the youtube content over speculating then ruining the show for everyone else when something doesnt pan out. Why not just enjoy the show for it being just a good show. Why over think, im convinced the creators watch these and troll you to overthink

I'm really glad everybody survived. I honestly expected most of the Bad Batch to die. The Bad Batch is a good show, I'm going to miss it

We lost Nala Se, which was huge. Her knowledge and skills could have aided the forthcoming rebel alliance.

Totally disagree. I was teared up, constantly worried that they are gonna die, but so so so glad they made out alive..

Have you not learned anything? Your doing it again! You (and a bunch of other reactors) bring up how this ending was not what you expected, you expected something darker, even deaths. Then you turn around and in your very next breath you speculate out the next animated series, which once again will underwhelm you and you'll be making another video just like this one ... Baylan Skol was right, It's a never ending cycle. *"What we seek is a new beginning!"*

Hemlock created his own Clone Force 99,how ironic

I loved that they kept Tech dead for once, honoring the character's sacrifice.

It wasn’t underwhelming at all, 10/10 for sure, CX clones were badass and I’m happy CX-2 was a new character, making him an old clone of significance would have just been a rip off Crosshair so I’m happy he’s his own character

I hope we see Cody and Wolf in future productions.

Disagree. This episode had me at the edge of my seat from the start because any one of them could have died at any time during that rescue. There was so much teasing from the people involved in this show online that fans believed it was going to be a tragic endorsement for so many of the Batch. Everyone was SURE that Echo, the last Domino, would fall because of the parallels that were made with Fives' final hours. Everyone was SURE that Crosshair would sacrifice himself in a bid for redemption, or maybe even Hunter. Most of us were surprised by the events of this finale, but pleasantly so. We hoped that they would have a peaceful ending where they got to live their lives on Pabu with Omega. A with the exception of Echo, who was always going to remain in the fight to free more of his clone brothers, they did. This was a spectacular final episode for a great show, and I am going to miss it.

"everybody survived" me: remembering Tech .....

i cried a lot. The meaning of all of their history had a perfect ending. I was so tense the whole episode, i am glad that they had they peace after so many suffering and sacrifice.

Everybody DIDN'T survive. Tech stayed dead. All the clone prisoners died. Nala Se sacrificed herself. TBB was a story about a family trying to escape, survive and reinvent themselves after their life's purpose was shown to be a brutal lie - it stayed in that arena, and it was all the better for it. Vader stomping in, a galactic clone rebellion, these things didn't belong, and the Rex/Echo thread through this season showed that this latter theme was a separate story. Even Omega's role in Project Necromancer became about rescuing other lab-imprisoned children: their force-sensitivity and thwarting Sidious' schemes were irrelevant (that respinsibility was handed off to Nala Se). What we got was a spectacular, moving finale that stayed focused on the core characters, instead of losing itself in giant cut-and-paste space fleets and unearned secret villain reveals.

It’s the whole Mephisto thing all over again.😂

Did the clones really die in the training room? Thought it was sleep gas.

Im happy Crosshair survived, he really scared me when he tried to sacrifice himself… That being said, RIP Tech and RIP Scorch

What are you talking about, this was beautifully written. Gotta celebrate the small wins when they happen.

All clones deserve to have happy endings

I'm really happy they all survived they deserved Happy Ending ❤ I mean everyone thought that they will die but they didn't which made it even better

Once they took the paint off of their amour and echo changed out of his, it wasn’t the batch anymore. It became more about the brothers bonding and sacrificing at any cost to free Omega and their other brothers and sister(s). Wrecker damn near dying Crosshair willing to execute plan 99 Echo and Omega rallying the brothers Hunter not going down when Hemlock was frying him Omega with her own little squad and being the push for them Nala Se giving her life When they finally made it back to the island, it was a sense of peace for them. They no longer needed their amour. But they will always be there for Omega and each other. I loved the ending of this arc.

They absolutely wasted Scorch. It was mad disrespectful for a character that's almost as old as revenge of the sith

I really hope Dave Filoni gives us a Rex Gregor and Wolffe series. there's so many stories that could be told with that arc and the rebellion.

This episode got me emotional. Clones are don’t usually get a happy ending. At every turn, I thought they were gonna get killed but I’m happy everyone made it out.

It’s not even another series Filoni just never ends any series he just rebrands with a new name.

I remember everyone thinking it would end with Vader killing each member one after another as they try to distract him so omega could escape.

Not underwhelming. All the other animated series except resistance had dark endings. This is a refresher.

And what pissed me off we didnt got to see wolffe again

Im happy that this was a happy ending because i like the way that the writers knew we were expecting a dark ending but i feel like it was also a good conclusion to the bad batch because it let them use their skills and have one final victory to end the story.

Why are y'all trying to kill off the clones bro😅

2026 possibly Star wars:omega squadron

I like how after war hunter looks like the hippie stoner dad.

Yes Thank you Dave , you have created another wonderful crew and even better characters for us to look forward to possibly seeing live action versions

Where did Echo go though? Omega only mentions Wrecker, Crosshair and Hunter when she says watch after them. Where did Echo go??

No, some fans have become totally obsessed with dark endings and character deaths but Star Wars was always about hope. This was also the "chapter" in the story about the Bad Batch, not the wider Clone Army - so why would the others come in to claim the ending of their story. We already know that more content is coming - just as Bad Batch follwed on from Clone Wars. Underwhelming? Not even slightly. The Batch survived because they kept together as a unit/family and all of thes deserved to survive (leaving them able to appear as supporting characters in the future, just as Rex and others did in their story). Scorch died because he had left his unit behind, diminishing himself in the process. Space is very big, so just because we don't see a character in the narrow window we are lookign through doesn't mean that they are automatically dead.

It TOTALLY left me at the edge of my seat!!!

The story was very contained, but definitely not underwhelming.

I’m pissed we lost scorch!

Justice for Scorch and Delta Squad

They killed Scorch is anyone going to talk about that they F*cking killed!

I LOVED the ending to this show sure Tech could have came back ( he is my favorite) but this was soooo good that I can't even complain!!!

Enjoyed the Bad Batch series as a whole and thought the ending was great. I was glad to see Crosshair, Hunter and Wrecker survive. Echo is also completely overlooked/underappreciated as his arc in the last few episodes was great, he was very much integral in the final mission after appearing and disappearing for extended periods of time on the show. I do hope we see Rex and Echo together again in another series all about Clones. The Clones have honestly become my favorite and most compelling part of Star Wars. I'd take the Clone Wars and Bad Batch over anything besides the Original Trilogy.

In rebels, the beginning seasons it was said that there were a bunch of cells that were not in contact, in charge of certain areas. What if the clones were one of those cells and either got wiped out or joined Hera and the others on Yavin-4.

I still hope we get to see the unfinished clone wars episodes at some point. That would be absolutely amazing

I loved how they mirrored Rex and Ahsoka salute ...except Omega didn't have a bunch of Clones trying to execute order 66 on her lol

In reference to the regs dying, not all of them died. It was the gas that Hemlock engineered, which he supposedly had an immunity to. The gas is meant to subdue not kill... I think.

Honestly the ending was refreshing after seeing the trope of someone making the ultimate sacrifice so their teammates can survive, or dead character coming back as some sort of antagonist it was nice that they didn't follow that trope AGAIN.

Hey as a fellow new father during the same timeframe to my baby boy, it really has opened my eyes to so much & trying to balance everything and getting my own channel off the ground all at 21 years old has just been crazy

From what i saw like half the clones lived. The gas doesn't kill just makes you unconscious

The main premise of many Star Wars films is that they end with hope and I feel they nailed that feeling of hope of the ending here with the squad and many other Clone Troopers finally settling down and eventually Omega heading off to fight in the rebellion. So killing everyone in a dark ending was probably not the move.

the fact it gave us a suprise ending is worth every minute. Tech was not a commando and nala sey and rampart died its just a wonderful change instead of doing the obvious. As a dad the end was also the most impactful and it is just beautiful . Jurrasic bark vibes. ( futurama )

People wanted them all to die, whilst complaining that cx2 wasn’t tech? I don’t get you …… I loved it! Glad they all survived but wanted to also see crosshair & wrecker at the end 😞x

Every KZfaqr guessed poorly with TECH

No Rex, Cody, Wolffe, Nothing done with the assassins Nothing with Tech Nothing with Zillo Nothing with Ventress I feel like there was so much more that that was maybe originally planned and meant for this series and it was all cut and this is what we're left with I mean it was good but far below expectations

The thing is, when you have a dark ending generally theres always room for a sequel. Thats why they made a happy ending with everybody surviving.

The clone uprising so 27 clones who bit the plasma bolt shortly after being freed

During the time jump When, Omega told Hunter to take care of Crosshair and Wrecker. She did not mention Echo hinting that Echo is probably dead in the future. Even though Echo left to meet with Senator Chukchi.

2:29 wait, WHY WAS HE IN TRAILERS THEN?!

Great video, i agree and hope that there will be more of all this

I loved this finale, throughout the 40 minutes I felt like it could have gone in so many ways due to great story telling. If anyone didn’t tear up at the end then you need to go talk to a specialist because this was beautiful.

Wow, I’m so surprised to hear you say it’s underwhelming. I thought it was fantastic and it absolutely was dark. I’m glad the Batch survived but there was a ton of death. The finale absolutely showed that Echo was much more than The Hero of Anaxes or superfluous to Tech. Everyone got out because of Echo.

What do you mean it was super dark, they just randomly killed scorch like he was nothing.

Tech was my favorite character. I may even purchase his Hot Toys figure. However, if I had known that he really died and wasn't going to come back I wouldn't have finished the series after he died. The ending was good but it also lackluster...

So about how old is Omega supposed to be compared/ relative to Luke and Leia when she leaves for the rebelion?

My dream ending would be that the 3 brothers were turned into the clone assassins and echo and omega had to kill them in order to escape.

Here's a dislike. It wasn't underwhelming. It was amazing. YOU GUYS set up the insane expectations, YOU GUYS started the over hyping and theories. Jesus christ, get over yourselves. 🙄 These guys got a rare well deserved happy ending that actually makes sense. Vader coming in? Nothing set that or even hinted towards that. YOU GUYS DID. This is the toxic part I hate about the community. You guys set yourselves up with insane expectations. This was a great ending, and of course not everything will be answered. If you know your lore, the Empire had billions of experiments going on. All we can do is hope for another series. We lost Tech, we got lucky, the characters Fought their way and earned their survival, hell Crosshair even lost his damn hand. It didn't feel like plot armor at all. So again, if you were underwhelmed, THAT'S YOUR FAULT.

I think whatever show we get will follow Omega picking up pretty much as soon as she leaves and by the end of the first season she will have The Batch with her but under her command on a mission where we get everything filled in up until hearing about Leia's ship being taken by Vader.

They did Scorch real dirty

Fans didn't asked to kill Scorch. And not like this...

We do know what happened to Cody. He went AWOL. That's all we need to know

This episode brought me to tears. We see you Dave. We'll let you cook.❤🥲

I think the reason why it felt underwhelming was because Dave Filoni's plan for the show was cut short and he had to tie it up FAST. Reminds me of The Clone Wars...

My guess is after tales of the empire we’ll get a tale of the clones where we’ll see the fates of these clones

Honestly, I cried during the finale. I'm glad they got a happy ending, they deserved it, watching it I even said: "If the Zillo Beast doesn't burst out of the facility and roar like Godzilla I'm gonna be disappointed." And literally 30 seconds later I got what I wanted. Really no one needed to come to the Bad Batch's rescue, they had to get out of that on their own. That was a perfect ending for those characters and opened the door for Omega to do more.

This was 15/10

No matter what, somebody’s gonna complain. People expect too much.

I'm so glad these boys got a peaceful life finally. They deserve to live in any way they choose. I do wish we could have seen old Crosshair and Wrecker though. I was surprised we didn't get Rex and Howzer plus Gregor coming to Tantiss and saving more brothers. Rampart learned nothing in his few moments with the Batch. So happy for Echo and love his team up with Omega, definitely a great duo. Omega seems like she has a part of each member of clone force 99 in her DNA. I hope we get to see more adventures with her and maybe before they get old we can see the Bad Batch help Rex out here and there.

You don't need a dark ending to have a meaningful one. The happy ending what was the story needed. At the end of the day they were an elite squad and they won not because of the plot but for their abilities. Omega (or one of the kids) controlling the Zillo beast was a silly idea, she didn't even know about midichlorians or the force, after a few hours with Ventress she shouldn't be able to control a fly, much less a giant beast. Tech's death had weight and impact, not bringing him back was the right choice, maybe if the show had a few more seasons they could've played with that idea, but reviving Tech and killing him again of "saving him"? in the series finale was way to much for a single episode. I don't think that anyone had to die, the clones fought for the Republic and then for their freedom, they deserve to live the rest of their lives in peace, that being said, across the whole series countless clones died, just not the ones in the elite group. Crosshair didn't had to die, at the end his story ended in better way, he overcame the PTSD and made a shot with his not shouting hand using a handgun without a scope, at the end he had to overcome all of the trauma to save Omega, and that's more poetic than a sacrifice. The Bad Batch series, told us what happened to the clones after the fall of the Republic and how the stormtroopers came to be. They showed us how the clones were easily disregarded by the empire. It also paved the way for so many more stories surrounding the remaining clones. At the end of the war there were millions of clones and a few years later there's barely a handful, the story of what happened to all the clones and how they disappeared so fast had to be told, and the Bad Batch series told it marvelously.

We don't have to let it go

It wasn’t the exciting, surprising finale that we usually get from Dave, but I thought it was still good. They set up a couple possibilities. What happened at Tantis could be the catalyst that rallies the remaining clones in the Empire to join Rex & have that clone rebellion. They also set up Omega’s rebellion adventures, which both ideas could be done in one show. Omega is a clone & cares deeply about freeing them all. If there’s a clone uprising she’ll be in the middle! I can’t wait for the next series. Regardless of what all the “popular we know Star Wars best” KZfaqrs out there say, Star Wars is not dead! Yes, there are several bad shows, but those clowns find reasons to label everything bad! They used to love Filoni, but they’ve gotten so negative that they’ve turned on him & are pushing this Dave is stabbing Favreau in the back BS. It’s the “reputable” ones doing it! To stay on point, Star Wars is not dead, it’s just disabled a bit. As long as Dave Filoni is writing stories, we’ll always get something good to watch!

The ending was not underwhelming at all!!! It was awesome!!

To see Darth Vader possibly have a mental breakdown seeing the bad batch again would of been cool.

with omega now joining the rebel alliance, im wondering if omega and rex ever bump into each other on yavin 4

I enjoyed the ending. I think now they should do a galactic civil war animated series with Luke, Han, and leía.

they nerfed the enemy experimented clones in the last scene. i like how wrecker gets healed in the pod too

It may have been a safe way to do the finale but I'm happy that they didn't kill off any more members. Now we have an opertunity to possibly see some or all of them again during the gap from when they rescued Omega and the point where she was grown. Also too it opens up for a live Action version of Omega.

dont think it was underwhelming and im glad it wasnt predictable, The last episode really had me on the edge of my seat, and through out the series Omega really grew on me as a character. would like to see her train a bit in the force or gain some force capabilities to be the first force weilding clone

I am just in a state of apathy where I just don’t care anymore about Star Wars specifically Disney Star wars

I do sure hope that Boba Fett and Omega do meet some how, probably not but it would be cool seeing the first clones seeing each other

i dont think it was underwhelming, sat on the tip of my seat for a big part of the episode and have cried multiple times

Wish they would explain how teck died they guy said all they could find was his glasses no body so i think hes still alive

Head canon can be a b*tch. Don’t fall down the rabbit holes of who appears where in older content, just enjoy the ride we are on today. I dreaded losing any of the clones, but I did expect to say goodbye to one or two characters. Loved the entire series, and I can’t wait to see where they go next with the story of the clones.

Not the ending we wanted. But the ending we needed.

I was expecting a dark ending and the sheer happiness and relief that I got from the happy ending was way more than enough to satisfy me. I'm so glad everyone got the end they deserved, they all deserved to be happy and grow old. All the symbolism was absolutely fantastic.

They probably weren't given a big enough budget. 😂
