Alright Star Wars peeps, I’m going to pin this thread of my non-spoiler-y Ahsoka thoughts. You can look here for my latest thoughts over the next seven weeks. :)

I’ll post a separate content-warned thread with spoilers.

And if you want to join me in watching it each week, check out my site! We synchronize our viewing and chat along on Discord.

We watched #Ahsoka episodes 1 and 2 last night, and I was pretty giddy the whole time! I also know this is 100% because I grew to love the #CloneWars, #Rebels, #Ahsoka, and #Thrawn over the years, especially with the books; it was a treat to see a bunch of things I loved from the animated series in live action.

For folks who haven’t seen Rebels: I think you can still enjoy this show, but the first two episodes especially felt like the bridge between Rebels and the new story that is kicking off.

I’ve heard people complain about pacing or whatever for these episodes, but it was fine for me. It was long, but I could also see how trying to speed through it all could have been more overwhelming.

I agree that some of the characters that we originally met in animated shows feel a bit “stiff” in these episodes so far; idk if that’s just due to translating between mediums, the characters being older/matured/battle-worn, or just the acting/directing. I got over it, though.

#Ahsoka is slow! Gah, I wish it was good like #Andor! Absolutely *nobody* complained that the first two episodes of Andor were too slow!

😒

Okay this week's episode of #Ahsoka was short! I *loved* it, but I did feel like it could have been combined with last week's or next's.

Still, I'm absolutely loving this show. 😍

That was some good Star Wars.

…and next week is Dave Filoni’s episode. 👀

Still thinking about last night’s #Ahsoka episode.

This week was good, too!

Rewatching/listening to #Ahsoka while doing housework, and yeah, this show is good. It felt a bit slow the first watch through, but there’s SO much more happening w/the characters than you realize—watching a second time, I’m picking up a LOT more.

My main concern is how it lands for folks who haven't watched #CloneWars & #Rebels. Because it feels like this show is *important* for the future of #StarWars.

This week's episode was my favorite yet, which I'm pretty sure I've said 3 weeks in a row.

@cassidy I did not, in fact, watch #CloneWars or #Rebels. But I did read the new Thrawn books and picked up the important plot points from YouTubers discussing Star Wars, so I can enjoy #Ahsoka just fine. But I imagine those who didn’t know Thrawn’s character from other media might mistake him for Moff Gideon 2.0 and lose interest… hope they can show Thrawn’s full abilities asap, I’m dying to see him back in action as well
