    Honestly it is great that Star Wars has such variety! I never used to like it all, but finding head canon and leniency has helped a lot to enjoy the more disagreeable parts (think episode 9).

    But yes you’d be right, since I will never like the holiday special, nor allow myself to see more than a YouTube video about it 👀




  • The Jedi are SO competent with the force. Some memorable points (spoilers ofc):

    • The masters’ restraint in never igniting their lightsabers unless lethality is absolutely necessary, relying on the force as their primary defence.
    • The contrast between Yord’s anxious rule-focussed approach and Sol’s force-led approach.
    • Torbin’s impenetrable force aura whilst meditating - for over 10 years!!
    • Sol’s ability to restrain Mae in-place whilst using the force to figure out what she knows
    • Every single example of Jedi mind trick use
    • The lightsaber hilts and sounds each being more refined and elegant imo

    Instantly sending me back to the pre-prequel era games, books & comics this series is. I am so glad that they chose to flesh out this era with the High Republic books first to ensure we have a vast array of literature and strong world building to draw from.

    Naturally hyped for next week. We’re eating well today.
