Oh My God ITS TRUE

oh my god IT’S TRUE

Hey…you know, it’s great that most fanfic writers explicitly state the trigger warnings in their works (especially 18+), but I think it would be really cool if they put the trigger warnings and character pairings in the tags so I could block the tags and not even have to scroll past a 2k+ word story with no “keep reading” button…

So yeh i saw the poster of this padawan gremlin and his tiny yellow light stick and went absolutely insane (heck yes it's my fav saber color i chose it for Cal too >:D)

oh look, it’s the consequences of my actions

The Bad Batch 1x13 spoilers⚠️

(concerning that Roland guy)

The nerve

The absolute nerve of them

Not only was this episode actually useless but they couldn’t even give us a cameo. Not only was there no cameo but they teased one and gave us this knockoff Vizago

Like???

Vizago or Hondo or literally any other crime boss turned soft guy would have made me less angry than this Roland guy.

So what? TBB cares about Cid? Omega is able to convince Hunter to help people because he has a thick skull and hasn’t realized that Omega helping people is trying to make him realize they need to rescue Crosshair? Even that is reaching. There’s not even any character development…

What was the purpose of this episode?? There’s only 3 episodes left of this season (and other seasons haven’t been confirmed) and they spiked the rising action and suspense down drastically for what?? Honestly, the last couple episodes should all be rising to the climax of the story (rescuing Crosshair/ sacrificial deaths/ fighting the empire or killing Rampart/ etc.), not slowing down like this.

For example, in the Mandalorian season 2, the last 3 episodes of the 8 episode season were spent in continuous rising action with little to no filler moments leading up to Grogu being handed over to Luke Skywalker. Thats almost half the season, 3/8 episodes. In episode 2x06, Grogu reaches out to find a Jedi on the seeing stone, Din gets in a scuffle with Boba and Fennec over the armor that was carried around since 2x01, Grogu gets kidnapped, the dark troopers are introduced as serious threats, the Razorcrest is blown to bits, and Din formed an alliance with Boba and Fennec. In 2x07, Din breaks Mayfield out of prison because he’s desperate, goes undercover to find Grogu, Din has to wear storm trooper armor and show his face for the first time in his life which broke his creed, Mayfield compromises the mission (while building his character development), and Din directly threatened Moff Gideon. All of these highlights are suspenseful and action-packed meant to build up to the season finale, which I’m not going to go into detail about because obviously it’s the climax of the story and there isn’t a filler moment to spare.

My point is that there should be more focus on the conflict of the story and the antagonists at this point in the series since we’ve seen very little of Imperial Clone Troopers (other than Crosshair), Crosshair’s character development and struggle, Tarkin’s role in the Empire’s early stages, who Rampart even is, the Emperor (you know…the one that created the Empire….and the guy that should be ordering Tarkin and Rampart around???), and the early Rebellion. Saw Gererra was in 1x01 for a minute and we never saw him again? Cham is starting a rebellion on behalf of Ryloth, which we’ll probably never see? Rex wants to fight against the Empire with Trace and Rafa, who we instantly forgot about because the story was focused on Wrecker’s chip, but we probably won’t see that anyway?

I thought the whole point of this show was to bridge the gap between the fall of the Republic and the Rise of the Empire and how it impacted the Clone Army, so why aren’t we seeing a focus on the Empire or the Rebellion‘s beginnings? Why aren’t we seeing more episodes focused on Imperial clones (like Howzer and his squad defecting)? Why aren’t TBB helping at least someone within the Rebel Alliance to show its beginnings? I get that the show is about TBB, but I feel like there are ways to better incorporate these ideas and portray them with a stronger impact on the audience.

I was pretty disappointed with this episode…

I’m convinced that this was the day Jacen was conceived😳

the first time hera and kanan kiss onscreen, or the last time the ghost crew are all together in one place
