I gave episodes 1 & 2 a B- primarily for pacing issues.

Episode 3 resolved my pacing concerns (dialogue seemed to move at a better pace), and the characterization of Hera (the bit we got of her) seemed more consistent with my expectations.

Most importantly, this episode was fun. I enjoyed the interactions between Ahsoka, Sabine, and Huyang. The dynamics of the three are interesting, and Huyang’s pessimism in regards to Sabine’s training gives Ahsoka a chance to be more optimistic than we saw in her interactions with Hera. It’s a good dynamic, and I look forward to seeing it play out further.

Less play with Baylan than I would have liked, but overall I think episode 3 exceeded the expectations I had coming out of the first two episodes.

    I didn’t like it Ahsoka deflecting fire from a spaceship, don’t feel like she, or any Jedi, could do it, space battle was the low point for me

      Rule of cool, my friend, rule of cool. That scene was very cool.

      (Also I see no reason a Jedi couldn’t deflect starship fire the same way they do blaster fire.)

      This kind of thing is all over the place in the comics, and we’ve very specifically seen Anakin/Vader do much more between the Clone Wars series and comics.

        Haven’t read the comics, I watched Clone Wars and don’t recall nothing like that (don’t say didn’t happened)

        Closest thing I can recall is Luke on Endor deflecting the lasers from the speederbikes.

        In any case I didn’t like it, lasers from ships are way more powerful than the ones from a rifle blaster and I can imagine a Jedi deflecting one shot, but not two waves of three space ships
