#but yeah Kaz not only got recruited by Poe himself

[im-no-jedi]

I just gotta say that I am LOVING all the hate I've been seeing towards Senator Xiono lately, especially from those who never watched Resistance

am also loving these same people finding out that 1) he is in fact still a pos in Resistance, and 2) that his son is an even bigger dork than Ezra and is besties with Poe Dameron ROFL

Star Wars Resistance S1E1: The Recruit

STAR WARS RESISTANCE IS HERE!

I FREAKING LOVE ANIMATED STAR WARS

AND YES! I PLAN TO DO GIF REACTIONS FOR THE SHOW LIKE I DID WITH REBELS!

SPOILERS AHEAD!

LET’S GET STARTED!

I’m gonna have to learn how to spell everyone’s names…

SPACE BATTLE

LADY PILOT!

I actually really like the animation now that I’m seeing it in action 

IT’S POE! POE DAMERON! POE! POE PRE-BOYFRIEND FINN DAMERON

BB-8!!

THEY SHOT THE RED FIRST ORDER TIE! TEAMWORK MAKES THE DREAM WORK!

Oh, Kaz’s daddy is a senator so there will be daddy issues

LEIA! IT’S LEIA

The First Order is planning to attack the Republic… in six months in Force Awakens

(But you know, six months in the past)

Kaz’s dad is a jerky jerk face

They arrive at a glorified gas station that’s pretty cool looking

NEEKU IS ALREADY ADORABLE AND THE DRAX OF THE SHOW AND I LOVE HIM ALREADY

I like this bartender lady!

Jarek and Poe needs a bro trip and I’ve only known him for three seconds 

Kaz just threw a dart at a big dude, and big dude buddy is pissed 

Jarek said he’d leave the Empire in the past, so was he once part of the Empire?

BAR FIGHT

I FREAKING LOVE THE BAR LADY! SHE BE LIKE

NEEKU YOU PRECIOUS BOY

Kaz got roped into a race

POE OUT!

But he’s leaving BB-8

Neeku is hands down my favorite character thus far closely followed by the bar tending lady

Kaz’s only ship is the Fireball which is known to explode

Tam is sassy and I love her already

Oooohhhhh the Fireball is supposed to go to Tam so I understand why she’s pissed

Awwww Bucket is the new Chopper and he’s 100 years old! He’s a grumpy old robot man!

Hi Torra! Welcome to the show! You’re adorable! SHE IS SO FRIENDLY

MAYBE SHE IS TOO FRIENDLY! MAYBE SHE’S THE SPY!

(I doubt she’s the spy but who knows)

She’s the Captain that runs the gas station’s daughter 

I love seeing so many aliens in this show. I always think there should be more aliens in Star Wars especially working with the Resistance, Rebels, and just in general because humans aren’t the only ones saving the galaxy

I like this pig mouse guy and bird dude in the parts shop. They would be an adorable couple together

I love this gas station. It’s like a little city with a market and cantina and mechanics. I love this gas station

Kaz, babe, I know you’re just a rich boy learning real world skills. It’s tough. You’re in a really scary situation. But you got to go through hardships to grow. I know you can do it

YEAH! KAZ BELIEVES IN HIMSELF

Jarek: You’re here for Poe, so you don’t have to win. Just survive

Kaz:

SHIP RACE! THIS IS WHAT I’VE WANTED TO SEE!

KAZ’S SHIP IS ON FIRE 

KAZ CRASHED

HE’S OKAY He lost but he’s alive! 

Jarek will let Kaz stay, but doesn’t want to be part of the spy work

FIRST ORDER STUFF

PHASMA SHOUT OUT!

I like Resistance so far! It’s a little slap stick-y but so was Clone Wars (do we remember Stinky?) and Rebels (a lot of the early Ezra scenes). I love all the minor characters. SO MUCH ALIEN LOVE! Kaz will probably grow on me like Ezra did (I really hated Ezra in the beginning. I grew to love him). But the supporting cast is what really brings it for me. I also like the animation including the ship flying scenes. It’s gorgeous! I also laughed way more than I thought I would.

I think once they get through a few episodes introducing all the characters, half of the fun will be trying to figure out who the spy is

Not a fan of the 10pm time slot though… I have work in the morning and I do gif reactions after the show which take a couple hours. For a show targeted for kids, 10pm is REALLY late

I can’t wait for next week!
