The Heir to the Empire has Returned! Grand Admiral Thrawn - Ahsoka 1x6 - Far, Far Away 

"The thread of destiny demands it" makes Thrawn seem like a freaking force of nature.

I cant't wait to see Thrawns reaction when he hears that Darth Vader/Anakin was Ahsoka's master. I am shocked he didn't know that already.😁

Baylan isn't saying that he literally wants to go back to the beginning of time, he's saying that he wants a new beginning of the Jedi/Sith or Light/Dark side cycle to end. In essence i think he wants to create a sort of new order or something where neither of those exist.

In Norse mythology, Hati (Shin Hati) and Skoll (Baylan Skoll) are wolves that are the offspring of Fenrir/Fenris. Hati chases the moon at night, and Skoll chases the sun during the day.

Just FYI... Ray Stevenson passed away 7 months after filming for 'Ahsoka' had wrapped, so all of his scenes including his story arc had been completed. Also, Huyang was built around 25,020 BBY (Before the Battle of Yavin) as a teacher to help teach younglings how to construct their own lightsabers, including Yoda himself.

When I first saw the Howler, I noticed that it almost resembles a Loth Wolf 🐺, and the end credits do show what looks like a cave painting of a Loth Wolf or a Howler before they show cave paintings of the Purrgil 🤔. Loth Wolves are strongly connected to the Force, capable of limited speech, and can traverse the World Between Worlds to get to different places on Lothal very quickly. I wonder if the Howlers are similar 🤔? (Yes, I am well aware of Dave Filoni's fondness for wolves 😅.)

I think those are regular stormtroopers but the cargo they're loading onto Thrawn's ship are bodies from the catacombs so that the nightsisters can resurrect them

I like how the woman has no idea who Ezra is and doesn’t know anything about him, but was still so convinced that he was Thrawn’s captain for some reason

"I thought he'd be more menacing" Do not be deceived by the calm demeanour

David Prowse, the Guy that played Darth Vader was 6'8. I'm 6'6 and I can't find Shirts long enough or Shoes big enough and forget getting into a car!

While there is just no way to top the previous two episodes of Ahsoka, especially for Anakin Skywalker stans, this episode gives fans two characters they have been waiting all season to see -- and it doesn't disappoint.

Greater threat Thrawn and Nightsisters are worried about... YUUZHAN VONG?!😮

You commented that the shuttle reminded you of Stargate. Funny enough, the main Night Mother is played by Claudia Black, who had a regular role as Vala Maldoran in Stargate SG-1 seasons 9 and 10 (after a fantastic guest appearance in season 8).

Baylan's dialogue with Shin, is almost haunting by taking Snoke's mutterings from Force Awakens and makes it feel even more ominous.

The New Republic is reeeeaally going to owe Hera a huge apology. LoL

Visual effects for Star Wars are all in house by ILM. LucasFilm has its own Visual Effects department which is different than other Disney properties. That is why visual effects through all Star Wars stories look and feel the same. They don't contract most of the work out but do it in house. The things that get contracted out are things they want to do that requires them to bring in a 3rd party but that 3rd party works under ILM not the show, animation or film.

I've been listening to the Thrawn based Star Wars audiobooks over the past few months. One of them has Anakin teaming with Thrawn and then later on he teams with Vader. Brilliant books - well worth reading of listening to. Also, I think in biblical terms Enoch is the name of someone who lived for 365 years, before rising to heaven and became an archangel named Metatron, serving God.

any one else notice Claudia Black as the great mother?

Baylan wants a fresh start with no empire, no republic, no Jedi. So, he has his own plans to take over. This character is so interesting.

Words cannot express how happy this episode made me ive read every Thrawn novel there is this charcter is right nest to Anakin and Ahsoka as the best Star Wars characters, his intelligence is one of the most dangerous things in the galaxy and i also agree with you this is very rare that we get this deep into lore and im loving it i hope it continues to impress me one last thing i wanna mention is im very positive the storm troopers are resurected.

"Day Sisters" and "Force Positive" are two amusing terms. 😅

You two are fun to watch. Keep up the great recaps.👍

You know what else would be really cool? A series with huyang narrating stories about the Jedi and other stuff over the years. I would watch the heck out of something like that!

Wes Chatham (Amos from The Expanse) plays Captain Enoch. He is that guy! This is just a planned character. So many cool stars were in this episode most that people did not recognize like Claudia Black.

The Zabrak are from the known galaxy as are humans.

That's gangster, Jane giving the birdie to the rude comments about the octupus/whales, anyone else notice that 😂 3:30

The new and old Force...Zeffo Empire incomming!!!

16:15 "Perhaps not." I have not seen Rebels, but read the books when they first came out in 1990s. Thrawn had an ego but does not let it get in the way of his plans. That why he is scarier than even the Emperor ever was. Thrawn was grown up-scary comparatively speaking.

4:43 I think Sabine is 2 years older than Ezra.

5:47 Very distasteful and disrespectful knowing that the actor really passed away!

Huyang is actually around 25,000 years old, if memory serves correct. But then I again I dont remember what I ate a couple days ago lol

Ahsoka episode 6 Far Far Away. The performances amazing live action Ezra and Thrawn unbelievable 😊

Hope you two are having an great and awesome day ❤

14:34 Ray is 191 cm and Lars is 192 cm, tall dudes.

Baylan seeks a power that will so wreck the galaxy that the (in his eyes) cyclical trap it seems to be in will be broken. Remember what he said to Ahsoka: "One must destroy in order to create." He wants to create a *new* beginning by destroying the galaxy and starting over. It's why he isn't concerned about Thrawn and the Republic going to war - what he has in mind will see both wiped out. Baylan is playing a longer game than even Thrawn at this point.

I firmly believe that Shin Hati is going to turn against Baylan Skoll and help Ahsoka and Sabine.. with the looks that Shin was giving Baylan this episode.. it makes me feel like she’s not super on board with Baylans plan

You know, another way to get Ezra, that wouldn't have involved a cosmic war, would have been for Ahsoka and Rebels crew to hitchhike across the galaxies with the purgills, before the ring was ever even thought of.

Honestly I find it hard to believe thron didn't find out all that information he wanted to know about ahsoka when she was helping the rebels but I'm really enjoying getting the rest of the story finally.

Ray Stevenson passed away, so the coffin joke, wasnt that great ..

Why would the force be different there? It's like gravity, it's universal.

Perhaps in future installments of Star Wars, when they have learned to build technology imitating nature, we will see ships with tentacles behind them. Judging by the fact that the Purgill's tentacles were moving as they flew through hyper-space, they would seem to be involved somehow. Of course, this is an entirely fictional theory based on a completely fictional story. 🤣🤣🤣 For now I think Octopii is a completely rational description of these creatures. 😂😂😂

Your folks are awesome and thank for your belief in Star Wars

There are no Daysisters, only The Dayman, fighter of the Nightman, champion of the Sun, master of Karate, and friendship for everyone.

I mean I can understand Sabine, she lost almost her whole family including Kanan. Then she lost Ezra, who is like a little brother for her. Because of her parents death Ahsoka was afraid that will push Sabine down the dark path. I'm interested to see what happens with Shin and Baylan. Shin and Sabine have quite an interesting dynamic, will they end up as allies?

Baylon is looking for the Bindu.

look like mystique 😄

Beards usually make men look older then they really are. I run into that issue all the time if I decide to shave and go to a bar.

How is everyone missing the fact that Ezra and Thrawn are dead? So many hints in the episode it's going to hit you all like the 6th Sense.

Thrawn has become Thanos of star wars

I’m not so sure any of those storm troopers are actually alive. Given what happened with Marok getting sliced open by Ahsoka, one has to think these troopers are much the same

E P I C THRAWN

They called night troopers

Thrawn and Ezra finally return 🥹 and the visuals of nightsisters🤩🤩🤩

Could Baylen be looking for Darth Sidious, I consider Sidious the beginning of the Skywalker Storyline... and could Darth maul be raised from the death with the Dark Magik from the Nightsisters...

That’s what I like about Thrawn is his calm demeanor. Calculating, precise. Willing to take a loss because he plays the long game. Chess bs Checkers.

Everything Thrawn does, he does for the Chiss Ascendancy (his people)... and he's been cut off from them for a very long time now. So, I think if I had to guess that's probably why he seems a little more ruthless than usual.

🤓well actually, Professor Huyang came to the Star Wars galaxy in a blue box over 25000 years before this show's point in time 🖖😎👍

Somthing for yall to enjoy, the voice actor for thrawn in rebels, is the same person playing thrawn your seeing in this video.

The troopers are not robots. They got trap with Thawrn

"🪖Thrawn Thrawn Thrawn "

Bokken are wooden swords, used for training in kenjutsu. In this context, I believe he's referring to the... *unconventional* training Ezra had, compared to the training in the Jedi temple.

Wait, force-sensitive wolves? Like the vornskr from the "Thrawn" trilogy? The one that originated on Myrrk?

Batwolf :)

Baylon sort of reminds me of Daenerys Targaryen with his determination to "break the wheel" of repeating history.

C'mon, Jane. All your many jokes sprinkled throughout such a dark episode completely ruins the atmosphere and feel of it. One or two might be funny, but you're overdoing it. From a loyal subscriber.

Hiring Wes Chatham to play a masked trooper and not a live action agent Kallus was a huge let down for me.

After she said that in 5:47 I stopped watching this video

Remember Marrok, and what happened to him when he died? I think these Stormtroopers are the same. Bodies controlled by dark spirits.

I know this is off the subject. But Yoda had to know the Emperor was gonna kick Lukes arse with the little training he had. It was a hail Mary pass at best. I sometimes side with Baylon....the Jedi had some issues. I don't agree with the tactics of course but to me someone who is both light and dark and not committed to good or evil is the key.

OH you bet shes Shin BADI..........cuz shes a baddie.

I believe Sabine is light force constipated, that's why night sisters said she wreaks of Jedi, but once yes has that force laxative moment, the energy will be comparable to the Star Killer base energy beam.

The average length of a casket ⚰️ is 84 inches or 7 feet. I googled it to find your answer.

Grand Admiral Thrawn will return and bring havoc and mayhem, weakening the New Republic, thus setting up the beginning of the First Order. Darth Sidious has foreseen this. Everything is proceeding as planned.

enoch is amos from the expanse series. woohoo

Thrawn is a Prawn

Lady, you are f’ing funny!!!

So much disrespect on thrawn in this reaction

"this is thrawn? The blue guy?".... ......*sigh*....ugh

5:47 no way she said that 😂

Jane seemed especially hyper this episode lmao

Thrawn’s army is the night troopers. We just don’t know what Thrawn offered the Nightsisters in return for his army. Thrawn already knows Vader so I’m curious about the reaction.

They are undead actually it’s pretty dark

35 minutes is too short for a 46 minute episode plus pre and post commentary. You just have to show more!

Travel back in time to the beginning? Sometimes I am surprised when I see reactions to TV series. And people understand absolutely nothing. It's as if they were watching another series different from the one I'm watching

Twenty five thousand. As silly as that is.

Grand Admiral Thrawn out here lookin like a blue Elon Musk 🤣 Those Remnant Stormtroopers looked badass, especially Enoch in the gold mask.

I love both of you your dynamic is very special, and I really enjoy watching content with you guys. Thank you J J. The large coffin comment was dark humor but because she said it analytically it was funny like a Vulcan joke.

🤓ACTUALLY…..the howlers look more like a rat/bat/horse/wolf 😂😂😂😂😂, jk 🤣

Thrawn has need of more dark magic and has asked for a full profile breakdown of Ahsoka, presumably to find weak points. Given the Nightsister connection to raising the dead I expect a Maul or Vader to challenge her. Was it forshadowed with Marrok?

This episode was awesome. They picked the perfect actor for the big bad, too.

Of a fourty five minute episode they show in this video 4 5 minutes😢

And the fact thrawn is fat and looks like elon musk isnt really helping the character.

Zabrak is the species. Dathomiri is the culture. Similar to how we have Asians and Caucasians - but both are human.

I think Ezra and Thrawn are allies. Ezra just wanted to meet his friends on neutral ground first.

4:37 in Rebels it felt that Ezra had feelings for Sabine but Sabine’s feelings towards Ezra wasn’t that noticeable to me. I would love to see a series based on Baylon & his apprentice. Baylon is Dark Jedi which isn’t really Sith and isn’t really Jedi. It really shows in Baylon when he’s teaching his apprentice that while he denounces the Jedi he doesn’t crave the power that the Sith crave. When they call Sabine “It” and say she reeks of Jedi is referring more to them sensing Ahsoka’s training. 13:50 the troopers are not dead they’re Night Troopers who were Thrawn’s troopers that survived on the planet. Their armor deterioration is due to not having any extra armor and after 9 years being outcast there. The interesting thing about the head Night Trooper is his name is based on a person in the Bible. His helmet is more than likely due to major damage that couldn’t be easily fixed so they made a face plate of gold. 18:49 I couldn’t believe the sniper didn’t aim for her head after seeing her body was protected. The “tracking thing” she had was the same thing that Han used on Hoth in Empire Strikes Back to find Luke. I like the way the Howler (the creature that Sabine is riding) interacts with Sabine. How it was begging for her forgiveness after running away. 26:32 hey that’s foul language you’re spouting there. 😁

12:42 Faloni influenced by kintsugi Japanese art.

Why the arrow pointing at Enoch. Don’t false advertise like that. It’s sloppy. He says like 2 sentences

Well, the actor who played Baylon Skoll did die in real life... so the coffin comment is valid.☹️

I enjoy your reactions but honestly maybe think about not putting spoilers in your thumbnails? I was about to watch the episode but now I know we see Thrawn :(

Antepenultimate.
