I gave episodes 1 & 2 a B- primarily for pacing issues.
Episode 3 resolved my pacing concerns (dialogue seemed to move at a better pace), and the characterization of Hera (the bit we got of her) seemed more consistent with my expectations.
Most importantly, this episode was fun. I enjoyed the interactions between Ahsoka, Sabine, and Huyang. The dynamics of the three are interesting, and Huyang’s pessimism in regards to Sabine’s training gives Ahsoka a chance to be more optimistic than we saw in her interactions with Hera. It’s a good dynamic, and I look forward to seeing it play out further.
Less play with Baylan than I would have liked, but overall I think episode 3 exceeded the expectations I had coming out of the first two episodes.
Shin has crazy eyes and I love it.
This episode has Rebels vibes, where they are constantly in space dog fights. Unfortunately not a whole lot of story, but I suppose not every episode needs to be a lore drop.
Somehow I didn't know that Mon Mothma becomes the Chancellor of the New Republic.
Hera is already over the New Republic's incompetent.
