At the end of Rebels Sabine leaves with Ahsoka to find Ezra and Ahsoka says in the trailer she walked away from Anakin before finishing her training just like she walked away from Sabine. I'm going to guess we find out that Sabine is force sensitive and Ahsoka was training her with Ezras lightsaber.
Not often, I believe. I think one episode had Sabine with the Darksaber sparring against Ezra. She only possessed the Darksaber for a few episodes.
Maybe that's what I was thinking of. I really need to rewatch the last few seasons of rebels before Ashoka comes out.
Just because she is using a lightsaber doesn't mean that she is a force user. There have been other characters in Star Wars that have held and used a lightsaber, but weren't force sensitive (Finn as an example).
I don't know. I think they are hinting pretty strongly at it in the trailer. Sabine also refers to Ahsoka as master. I could be off base, but I'm going to guess she at least trained with Ahsoka for a while and she has some ability with the force. There appears to be unaligned force users all over the place in this series.
Eh, I think the master thing is more of a joke after a conversation they just finished. Ashoka kind of smirks after Sabine says it.
Too hard to tell with all the editing, who knows what the actual sequence will be. Definitely could be a misdirection though to get people like us talking about it.
Yep. His and others' presumed higher sensitivity to the Force were ways to explain their much greater than average skills at certain tasks. They had limited potential and would have never risen to the level of even the weakest of Jedi.
When Mando came out, I kind of forced myself to start watching Clone Wars, having heard there was a decent amount of backstory there. It was a slog at first, very much a silly kids show. But then occasionally there was some really dark storyline, or a very violent or nasty event. Seemed like a very odd mix. Then it got better and better and better; the end arc of Season 5 is some of the best SW ever imho. Remarkable how it started as kind of a dumb cartoon and then got actually good (just skip a few clunkers and the droid heavy episodes lol).
So now very much looking forward to Asohka series, but I suppose I will have to watch Rebels now too. Good treadmill viewing. What say the crowd - Rebels vs Clone Wars - which is better?
The last couple episodes of the final season of Clone Wars is a must watch for Star Wars fans in my opinion
I generally enjoyed Rebels, but Clone Wars is the better series in my mind. Both have some poor and great storylines throughout. The hardest part with Rebels for me is that the whole show is based around one main character, Ezra, and while Ezra does slightly get better as the series goes on, he is in general an obnoxious and annoying character. Ashoka was the same way when she first entered Clone Wars, but she got WAY better as the series went on, while Ezra only got slightly better. Plus, he was the main character while Ashoka wasn't. On the flip side, Kanan Jarrus in Rebels is maybe the best supporting character of either series. Side note, I'm cool with bringing Ezra back in Ahsoka, as I do think they can do some future good stuff with his character in live-action. However, I'm secretly hoping he lost his ridiculously stupid blaster/light saber. I've always hated that thing.
Did you watch Rebels yet? It's really the "sequel" to Clone Wars and starts off silly kids show and morphs into very solid SW material, just like the Clone Wars.
For your question, the final seasons of Clone Wars > Rebels > other seasons of Clone Wars.
For ranking in the SW universe, after the original trilogy, I place them in the next tier with Mando, Andor, Rogue One and Solo, then followed by the prequel trilogy.
Pretty sure that lightsaber gets destroyed and he has a standard one with a green blade at the end. Of course it's been a minute since I watched the series.
That's what I'm thinking too. We've seen several Mandalorians using light sabers.
