S1E6 - The Whole Shebang! 2nd Best Episode


This episode has a bit of everything and so much more. Cowboy stand-offs, jedi rebuilding and training, Din + Bobba gathering against the Pykes, and more Grogu!

Seeing Grogu, Luke, R2 , and Ahsoka all together again on a lush green serene planet surrounded by valleys and bamboo for training was a scenic sight to behold. I can see they're slowly rebuilding a Jedi Temple although somewhat small for the time being.

While the Luke we see here is somewhat stoic compared to his younger self, I think it has refined him into a more matured Jedi Knight/Master even though some don't like this version of him. Watching him train Grogu had all the cute mannerisms added within his animatronic capabilities. Force lift frogs, force lift walk and talk, backpack ride (just like old Yoda days), you jump dodge those remote drone stun bolts Grogu, you.

They did Luke justice in this episode imo considering the sham we saw in The Last Jedi where he drank alien jizz milk and faded away like a grumpy old man. It shows Luke would've never given up, ever, and always had that spark in him to keep on going and trying, not become a hermit and live off in some remote planet.

At least we now know where Grogu was from, a Jedi Temple during the Clone Wars when Order 66 was in effect. Actually this was already said when he talked to Ahsoka back in Mando series so it's weird seeing him needing a flashback reminder from Luke when he already told his story to her.

Cobb Vanth (Olyphant) vs Cad Bane stand-off, never knew Cad until today. Those large Duros reddish eyes once revealed gave a nice sinister surprise and the voice that goes with it. He's been around since the Jango Fett days and is considered the best bounty hunter after Bobba's dad died. Specializes in fighting Jedi and had once fought Obi-Wan and Anakin. Wonder if we'll get to see Luke or Ahsoka engage him if and once Grogu takes the chain-mail and one of them returns him to Din.

Camtono looks like a pressure cooker IED...

As much as I would like seeing Grogu pick the Beskar chain mail and return to Din, I hope he chooses Yoda's lightsaber instead to become a Jedi Knight. Grogu, think of all the frogs you can force lift into your mouth instead of just one at a time. Sadly, I think he'll choose the chain mail because the derp fans would majority want it cause of the aww factor with him in Mando.

I definitely wouldn't mind a CGI Luke mini-series. He still retains some of the old Jedi fighting stances of the past.
