Why Grogu is WAY More Powerful Than You Realize - Star Wars Explained 

I feel “The Mandalorian” was never about Din Jarin or Bo-katan, but it’s about Grogu. He is The Mandalorian. This is his origin story, the others are just part of it. And yes, the combination of his force powers, Jedi training, and Mandalorian apprenticeship will bring a whole new warrior to the world, one like no other. And this is his beginning…

You didnt mention, Ezra Bridger as being strong with Beast Control. I think he's one of the strongest users of that

I feel that Grogu will pursue his Jedi training after his father, Din Djarin passes. Grogu chose to be with him & is now Din Grogu. I feel that Din Grogu will unite the Mandalorian/Jedi spiritual wisdom & warrior skills into a new breed of galactic protector. Din Grogu has immense & unprecedented potential to truly unite the galaxy.

I feel like grogu will become everybody's favorite force wielder at the end of all this. He has all the building blocks to be the most badass thing the entire starwars universe has ever seen.

Any one want to just take a second to appreciate the fact Bo Katan thought her side plate sized shield was going to protect her at all from that fire ball

In all honesty, I would like to see Grogu become the second Mandolorian Jedi in lore and have a bit more explanation/exploration of the first. Both cultures are not so incompatible and follow a similar mindset of the elite warriors. The Jedi code and the Mandolorian creed are both steeped in traditions and are what drive both to fight fearlessly in battle. Both have a strong sense of honor, duty, and encourage the passing down to the next generation of the history and traditions of each culture.

Grogu did use beast control on the rancor in Boba Fett! So even earlier he was able to use it on huge stuff

I really hope they continue his story for a long time. Also I think Ezra would be an amazing Master for Din Grogu to learn from. Ezra had a deep connection with animals as well.

Can we talk about how heartbreaking it was to see him split up Paz and Axe? It was almost like a PTSD episode from watching the clones kill the younglings, seeing people he considers his friends (assuming he knew clones during the war) gun down his classmates and now having IG give him the mobility to stop it from happening again on a way smaller scale.

If Living 900years for Yoda/grogu's species is not uncommon then it is the equivalent of many lifetimes of humanoid species. It wouldn't be a suprise at all to me if grogu was to live to the mandalorian creed until the time of Din Djarin's death and then move on to live a life of a fully fledged jedi while staying semi-true to the creed. He's definitely going to have an interesting timeline ahead of him

Imagine if Grogu made his own lightsaber , and it was a dark saber as well, confirming that the combined ideologies of Jedi and mandolorians creates this unique kyber crystal

I like how Grogu uses the Force just because he can. He cracks me up.

in the next season, I would love to see Grogu a bit bigger and learning to speak. I think that there is a lot of potential left in Djarin and Grogu's story to tell. Im still hoping we get to hear grogu say this is the way

Grogu has huge force potential. Now he is a son of Din Djarin, a devout mandalorian of foundling origin so it would be quite logical for Din Grogu to adopt his father’s moral compass about honor and the Way. This means that he might use all weapons and force powers possible to protect those in need of help but stay on the light and right side of the force. A nice touch of DD:s responsible attitude towards his fatherhood is that he decided to choose his future gigs as a bounty hunter so that he would not end up signing in for things that are morally wrong. All this because of his responsibilities as a role model for his son. He is not a professional educator and has no experience of being a father either but the bond between father and son is very strong. Btw, Bo Katan would a really nice space mom for Grogu and she likes him very much too as can be seen in various occasions a taking him into her lap as she flies the fighter/transport ship. Grogu could be the future Mandalore and he could ride the mighty Mythosaur as he has already connected with it through force momentarily. This is the way.

I love how the show's title "The Mandalorian" literally is talking about different people in different seasons. Clearly S1 and S2 the Mandalorian being referenced is the titular bounty hunter himself, but in S3 as a foundling, it's becoming clear to me that the character being referenced is actually Grogu. It could be when the series finally concludes (if it ever does) we realize the entire series was about Grogu himself, and the title was describing him the whole time.

One of his best attributes, to me, is the fact that he's not afraid to walk both sides. However, let's hope pride will not be his downfall such as vizla.

I'm hoping that due to his long life, he will be an important and legit powerful character in the post sequels era.

You disrespect Kaanan saying his power in the force was nothing special when he was able to best Darth maul in a duel while blind.

I can really see grogu being a force Mandalorian learning the way and practising his force abilities hope the series last long enough to see that mature transition

I recently dived into some Star Wars 'wiki' sites and read that in the early days use of the force was known as "the way" perhaps Grogu will bring about an era that is full circle. It would appear also that Grogu understands he needs attachment and would argue that Grogu's shield against the fire was strengthened out of the love he has for his father. The force itself is neither good nor bad it's a matter of intent of the user. I further think he'll do away with the concepts of the light and dark of the force and will use it for justice which he's seeing is very much actions steeped in grey. Ultimately, he is The Mandalorian, bringing about a new force system and philosophy.

I think he could end up being offspring of Yoda and Yaddle. Not gunna lie, I was a bit disappointed when Grogu ended his training with Luke. I was really excited to see where that would lead.

Watching Grogu protect Din Djarin and Bo-Katan from the fire, I was thinking about Kanan Jarrus' sacrifice and how strong Grogu had to be to do what he did. I realize it's not exactly the same but there is obviously a strong parallel and I was more than a little impressed. I was expecting him to pass out after, so when he just sat down, I was like "oh, damn." It's nice to hear I wasn't the only one thinking exactly that.

First, Kanan was standing on the exploding fuel pod when it blew, and gave himself up to save the others. Second, Grogu was standing on solid ground, and just made a small bubble to redirect the explosion around them. Different feats of strength. Not discounting how powerful Din Grogu is by any means, just pointing out the difference between them.

In Legends, Corran Horn did something similar (I Jedi), where it was explained that he was actually using the energy from the explosion to bolster his power in the Force.

In the season finale we saw the culmination of Grogu's dealing with his fear from the past and Din Djarin's dealing with wanting to protect Grogu. Grogu finally overcomes his fear and Din Djarin finally makes Grogu part of his family. I wonder if they kept the dark saber so that Grogu would at least have the crystal to create a light saber. I suspect that the dark saber needed to be broken so that it could be resized for Grogu. What happened in the past seasons up 'til now might be considered Grogu's trials towards becoming a Jedi knight.

Yoda with 2 small darksabers riding the mythosaur while in his beskar armor and helmet would be the star wars stuff of legend!

I think it needs to be considered that Kanan was completely stopping the progress of both the fire from the explosion and the explosion inside the fuel tank he was standing on while Grogu was more redirecting the explosion around him

Luke didn’t have beast control. He crushed the Rancor’s skull instead of making it go to sleep.

The shield must have extended below the floor as well because you would think that the metal of the base floor would have heated up to thousands of degrees and burned the three of them alive.

I love their duo. They have become a fighting unit vs. a caretaker and child.

Also most people dont realize that Grogu being a mandalorian means that even if he encounters an enemy that is not susceptible to the force attacks like the yuzhaan vong he will still have the best warrior training in the galaxy, the mandalorian training. Plus he will enhance his body with the force to fight even better than any Mandalorian.

Yes! Plus his people , to my understanding, aren't near as likely to fall to the dark side. So he could learn to wield both the light side and the dark side. I'm so excited to see Din Grogu become a bad ass

Maybe this is first time galaxy will saw a Jedi wearing Mandalorian mask again, since Darth Revan era

Grogu has definitely shown abilities well above his physical development/age

That mask on grogu in the thumbnail is just so cool

i don't know how much of it has been explored in the EU, but i like to think that Yoda, Yadell, and Grogu's specie are born because the force manifested them, and that's why they have such a long lifespan, and high sensitivity of the force, and why nobody know much about their home planet. They are unique and endangered at the same time, so they live in secrecy of the rest of the galaxy.

If Yoda's species is rare and yet completely force sensitive... and if the force maintains balance... could it be that the Force knew Yoda's time living was coming to an end and Din Grogu was the Force's way keep such species maintained in the Force??? I would imagine if this could be the case, if we see another small green one, could it be a sign Din Grogu time could be coming to a close???

Grogu atop the Mythosaur with dark saber nunchaku and James Earl Jones's smooth baritone voice. That's my dream.

I think Asoka could still train him. If Din died or started to travel with Asoka, she could change her mind.

Ezra Bridger might be able to tame the Mythasaur, as he could commune with the Purrgil and not just one, but an entire pod of them.

Not only did he stoped the fire from engulfing them but he stoped the heat of the explosion and the blast of the explosion.

Grogu's race are like the sith race. Talented in his alignment.

Isnt Ahsok not also one of the most powerfull Jedi? I mean she used Beast Control as a 1 year old.

Ultimately, grogu would be weakened from being a mandalorian. Sure, he would become hardened and learn a ruthlessness from them, but his most powerful and fulfilled form would be to train in the force and the sabre, hopefully from the most powerful, wise and force-aligned being around - Luke. Grogu having a mandalorian association would only hold him back.

Strong plot armor, Disney has given him

The stuff we should be talking about right now. I love this channel for that. This is the way!

We don't know the lengths of Force abilities that Grogu possesses yet. If he's close to Yoda's level, than he could be more powerful than him.

Really injoyed the 3rf season was hoping to see grogu use that dark Saber tho

He really shouldn't have been fatigued at all . That ability absorbed energy, making you temporarily stronger. Like yoda vs. dooku. ( obviously, kanan doesn't doesn't count)

I was expecting Grogu to pass out once the threat was over...a little comedy to lighten the mood. When he didn't I was like OH SNAP!

I hope they will make new shows of him! 🤗

Most Jedi always suppress their powers too keep themselves and others safe maybe that's what din grogu did, which is why we all never see him at his full potential. And I also hope he wears his armor like this concept art.

Grogu will ride the mythosaur and weild the dark sabor(a new one or the current sabor repaired). I still think the title “mandolorian” is directly about Grogu himself.

Grogu in 800 years: Go I will. Good relations with the mandalorians, I have.

This is just one more example that proves why we will see Luke again if not maybe in the movie. No way he could leave a force wieldier with this much potential power to just be on his own and do what ever. He has to return and train Grogu and Dave knows he has to. We will see it sooner then later..

Didn't get to play the game, but Vader holding back an ocean is insane 😮

When Grogu said, “it’s Mandalorian time.” I knew something special was happening g.

Grogu leaving Luke is like a child prodigy quitting his or her cello lessons with the mid cello instructor.

We see Moff Gideon get "roasted", but we never see him burn up, or even really die, at all. There is another member of Yoda's species in Star Wars: The Old Republic as well.

It's Din Grogu

Fire has always been a weakness for the jedis hence mandalorians have equipped flamethrowers. Grogu being able to manipulate fire especially at such a young age is some next level stuff. Not even Vader could do it to reach Obi wan in their duel on the obi wan show.

I like that they forgot he can heal people too in the Mando series lol

Vader was gifted with Beast Control too. Tamed a Summa-Verminoth of all creatures

When I saw the last episode of s3 I kinda felt Grogu was telling the mythasaure "don't worry I'll be back for you"

Would really love to see them commit to aging grogu up to a more formidable size. Ditching the puppet aesthetic atleast mostly for a full cg character so his movement isnt always so silly.

That moment when you accidentally get first view on a video because you accidentally clicked the notification the moment it popped up while trying to do something else.

They got their Groot "We are Grogu" moment

do you think grogu is actually son of yoda and yaddle born of two force users like starkiller if this is canon and true than he is way more powerful and hope he gets more powerful

Starkiller pulling down a Star Destroyer was pretty epic!

Starkiller, also known as Galen Marek, the main character of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. His wielding of the force was intense!

Vader in fallen order, held back the entire ocean on a planet with gravity 3x that of Earth. It's the biggest force flex in star wars we've ever seen and will be hard to outdo.

Im literally crying rn, this is so beautiful

My coworker and I had this idea. Grogu salvaging the keiber crystal from the damaged Dark Saber to forge a new one. using the beast taming skill to tame the mythosaur, and his long life span of his species, Could maybe become something akin to Tarre Vizsla, the first, and to this point, only Mandalorian Jedi. Yoda started training other Jedi at about the century-age mark, and if in the Mando series timeline, he is about 50-52 or so, it shouldn't be much longer until he can finally learn to speak and officially take on the Mando creed.

All I know is grogu will need one hell of a growth spurt to keep up to what yoda said in the OT. He trained jedi for 800 years and died at just over 900. So grogu need to become a full adult in the next 46 years.

i've really wanted to draw someone like Grogu or Grogu himself (with the helmet) and the thumbnail made my mouth open

This show has come a long way since the three year mission to explore space, wow.

Hold on the fact that kanan force healed his eyes momentarily was impressive though

The difference in proportional strength of and explosion due to distance would make kanans feat more impressive

Grogu’s story has alot of potential and I think he will walk both the way of the Mandalorian and take many traits of the Jedi.

I think Grogu needed an orange slice after the fire. I also think that the force absorb ability is natural from Yoda and Grogu's species. Yoda was also able to absorb energy and release it as he did to Dooku and Palpatine. In Legends Continuity Corran Horn did something similar in the I, Jedi novel where he was in a hurts lair and triggered an explosion, he had the energy absorbing ability, but what he did in a rougher way was to use the energy from the explosion to protect himself and create a force vision he sent to everyone.

Don't forget Master Vandar from The Old Republic 😢

I think it is the RULE OF 1. One of Yoda's and Grogu's species allowed only 1 at a life time. There species is way to powerful and comes so easily there can only be 1. Anymore than that would, could lead to to much power and turn into sith. The rule of 2.....in the sith. Just a feeling

Grogu is going to be a beast. Force sensitive, trained by mandalorians, access to Jedi training (if he chooses). So much potential for Grogu. Hope they slowly ramp his character development. He is going to be an amazing character and already is.

I hope grogu stays in the mandalorians and gets his own suit of beskar. Even doing his own bounties and eventually wielding the dark saber and leading mandalor to prosperity.

You assumed that Gideon died in the fire. Bescar showed signs of heating up from the intense power of the dark saber, but was unable to cut through it. But, the heat of that explosion was most likely no where near the temperature of the dark saber. I strongly feel that Gideon walked away from that explosion in his powered battle armor and will be back in season 4. Anyone who has been in a desert knows that wearing metal armor would be brutal, yet, when Mando was on Tatooine he showed no signs at all of suffering from the heat of a desert world. Reason: Mandalorian armor most likely has some kind of cooling and heating system to keep the wearer from roasting inside the armor. I bring up the heating, because in the final episode of season 3, a Mandalorian flew into space, and did not freeze in seconds, or show any signs of being cold when he boarded the ship. The reports of Gideon's demise are being grossly exaggerated.

That's why Grogu was able to make the Rankor sleep in The Book of Boba Fett

i remember a show in India, it was about Tipu sultan but the story started from his grandfather haider ali. Could be mandalorian is grogu but it started with din Jarin

The fact that he isn't even at full potential in any of these makes it that much more bad ass. Vader would've absolutely been god level had he never burned.

In Season 2 after Grogu is captured he force throws 2 stormtroopers and then becomes very tired from it. Moff Gideon approaches Grogu with the darksaber and Grogu actually puts his hand out to force grab it but it looks like he’s too weak to do it and Moff Gideon says something like “You want to play with this”? Referring to Grogu wanting to grab the darksaber but then I think it implies he’s too tired from using the force plus the stress of being captured and taken from Din.

The thumbnail is gold

I think it makes more sense for Mandalorians and Jedi to team up to create a new order of both, because it would make it easier for force-sensitives to survive by having more options than a lightsaber, sometimes fallible force connection, or the random pickup of a blaster. Consequently, both are targeted by the empire so it only makes sense to team up.

Ezra Bridger has heightened beast control skill.

I definitely noticed the feat and I some what agree that he is going to be great but right now I only put him top 10 or so. Can't wait to see other feats tho

Grogu is shaping to be one of, if not the, coolest star wars character ever. so much potential.

The thing about proficiency isn't that there's only one "chosen one" but, it's The path chosen. Question I wonder is who is the equivalent antagonist?

i don't think we're gettng a mandalorian season 4, we're getting grogu season 1

That thumbnail is absolutely epic! Hats off to whoever made that.

Ahsoka achieves beast control over a not so small predator as an infant with zero training.

That thumbnail should be a legit helmet for Grogu

you usually are right about things, but Yoda is talked about constantly as being insanely powerful, all the time in Legends and even in canon too, and also Vader's pushing back the water is nothing compared to either Kanan's feat or Grogu's feat, Vader has far better feats than the water, but just because Vader is powerful doesn't mean you need to rain on someone else's parade, Grogu and Kanan's feats were crazy powerful and were some of the most powerful feats we've seen, and the most powerful we've seen in canon
