Perhaps owing to the nearly six-year gap between Seasons 6 and 7, this final lap is basically self-encapsulated and requires almost no effort to get up to speed (narrator extraordinaire Tom Kane will help with that part). ... Bottom line: If you loved The Mandalorian, you just might like Star Wars: Clone Wars.
The final season and it does not disappoint. We had to wait for 6 years for the conclusion and some of us even had given up hope. I say it is a remarkable strong ending to the show and it does tighten some lose ends. Again we got some multi episode story arcs that use its time for character development, bonding and to deliver awesome moments. It has only 12 episodes but all do fully deliver. The introduced “Bad Batch” of clone soldiers are just amazing, the Rafa sisters show what life is for a non privileged citizen in the Star Wars galaxy, the Mandalore arc reaches its climax and of cause we got the conclusion to Ahsoka and Mauls arcs of the show. The final episode is breathtaking. It is set from shortly before Revenge of the Sith up to slightly after it including a certain event that changed galactic history. The focus is not on Revenge of the Sith as this is shown in the movie. Here we see glimpses and some additions to it but the stories are only slightly interwoven. I think I can recommend all episodes without a doubt as I find no weak link. Here is my reasoning: The first 4 episodes “The Bad Batch”, “A distant Echo”, “On the Wings of Keeradaks” and “Unfinished Business” deal with a menacing situation. The main Republic shipyard of Anaxes is attacked by the Separatists. Strangely they can outmaneuver each strategy from the Republic forces with ease and there is no leak or traitor. Anakin is set on a mission with the Bad Batch to get answers. Great characters, excellent story arc with good pacing, good twist, immersive battles and conclusion. The Bad Batch became easily fan favorites and we are hyped for their show Sidenote: The Bad Batch are a team of irregular clones. There were failures in the cloning process but these were actually good giving them special assets / abilities. Bad Batch is their humorous way in dealing with this. The next arc consisting of “Gone with a Trace”, “Deal no Deal”, “Dangerous Debt” and “Together Again” continue with Ahsoka’s story. She left the Jedi order and struggles what to to. She falls into a new adventure (literally and not literally at the same time;-). and meets the Rafa twins. She accompany them on a business mission that turns out far more interesting than imagined. Here I like the character interactions, development, moral dilemmas and cat and mouse games. While she is on this adventure she is spotted by Bo-Katan. This started the final arc consisting of “Old friends not Forgotten”, “The Phantom Apprentice”, ****” and “Victory and Death”. This deals with Mandalore, Maul and the events from Revenge of the Sith unfolding. It has epic battles, grim situations to face and a final that is sad, intense and awesome. A truly magnificent conclusion. I want to thank the whole team involved for the show. You have given us great experiences and much to discuss, enjoy and to revisit. This season gets a 10/10 without hesitation. Maybe even worth watching without the other seasons but less impactful.
Flawlessly executed. A fantastic crescendo of a finish to the clone wars. The best post Disney Star Wars content to date along with Rogue One and Mandalorian.
Up until the final few episodes this is rather a dull ride of a final season.
I was never really sold on the show, but my 7 year old son thought it was great. Clearly I'm not the target audience.
Wow.... This season of Star Wars is starting to turn into a big let down. The storyline so far is decent but the season is severely lacking in what made the previous seasons great. The PG-rating is really starting to hurt the show as it seems the combat and intensity of violence have been downgraded, regressing back to season 1 style of star wars the clone wars. If this continues, I have to assume that the most anticipated moments of this season such as Maul returning or order 66 will also be disappointing.
This score does not come with ease. It is hard. After careful consideration. Yet it is necessary.
Ahsoka Tano is a Character that was placed in the Star Wars lore long after the first 3 movies were shot - but she was necessary to give Anakin a good explanation as to why he went against the Jedi Order. Her story was good. She left the order because they weren't the heroes they were supposed to be. Now what? Anakin has contact to the prime reason why he joined the dark side (the Padme storyline can only be sonsidered a joke, because FORCEHEAL - thats why, could have just asked Yoda to help some) - like 5 minutes before Order 66? This is a joke.
I was stunned. I could not understand. Why ruin Ahsokas storyline? Then I saw an interview with the creator of this season:
"We are not responsible for Anakins story, that was told in the Revenge of the Sith movie". Ah. Ok. So you are not responsible for the one Skywalker story to rule all of Star Wars. Srsly. F*** ***. Thank you for deliberately ruining Star Wars the Clone Wars.
this season is horrible. boring story's, boring characters. if it wasn't for Anakin killing the spider guy, it'd get a zero. should have just left this cancelled. just sad.
