Star Wars: The Bad Batch: “Tribe”- Review
The legacy of the Clone Wars hangs heavy over an enjoyable, self-contained episode of The Bad Batch.
A routine job for the mysterious droid crime organization, Axis, takes a surprising turn when Omega happens upon Gungi, a young Jedi now on the run from the Empire. Desperate to usher their new friend and ally to safety, the Batch agree to escort Gungi to his homeworld of Kashyyyk where he hopes to reunite with his people.
Gungi, a young Wookiee Jedi, was a fan favorite from the moment he was first announced to be appearing in The Clone Wars’ fifth season. I mean, how could you not fall for this lightsaber wielding furball? While the youngling centered arc of The Clone Wars ended up being a surprising joy all around, Gungi was an undeniable standout and it was hard not to worry about the likely dark fate that awaited him with the fall of the Order. His brief appearance in the first trailers for The Bad Batch’s second season understandably elicited cheers from Celebration attendees and his return has remained one of the most anticipated elements of this string of episodes.
Luckily, “Tribe” doesn’t disappoint. Sure, like most of the season to this point, this outing is another standalone mission without much in the way of plot momentum or ongoing character narrative, but Gungi’s return is a well directed and satisfying outing that builds upon a decade of storytelling.
For many fans, parts of “Tribe” likely felt refreshingly familiar. Among the many stories lost in the corporate reshuffling that followed Disney’s purchase of Lucasfilm was an arc of The Clone Wars that featured the Bad Batch among other characters helping Wookiees resist Trandoshan attempts to strip Kashyyyk of its resources. It feels only natural that The Bad Batch would resurrect many of these visuals and storytelling cues even if their inclusion requires some narrative reshuffling. For viewers that have hungrily devoured any available details about The Clone Wars’ missing episodes, getting to finally see familiar pieces of concept art like Wookiees ride into battle on top the feline Mylala or commune with the trees of their forests home jump into motion can’t help but feel special.
It also helps that the Trandoshan presence carries an even more sinister connotation now than it might have in its previous incarnation. The antagonistic relationship between Wookiees and Trandoshans is an element of Star Wars lore that stretches back decades, but there’s a dark irony in seeing them strip mine Kashyyyk with the help of Imperial clone troopers. The Wookiees former allies are now aligned with their most famous enemies.
Similarly, Gungi’s presence ups the tension all around. Episodic writer Matt Michnovetz smartly makes our young Wookiee guest star more than a little nervous around The Batch and even if this tension is resolved rather quickly, it still feels appropriate to acknowledge that a traumatized young Jedi would be more than a little hesitant to join up with clones no matter how they looked. In turn, Gungi’s discovery makes the threat of the Trandoshan menace feel all the more pressing. It’s one thing to have to fend off a careless and cruel team of mercenary lizards, but it’s another to have them hunting you down in the hopes of capturing a one of a kind prize. Also, come on, it’s Gungi! We can’t have Gungi get hurt!
Visually, “Tribe” is gorgeous. The animated environments of The Bad Batch have been stunning this season and the dense forests of Kashyyyk are some of the best so far. Lighting and design blend together to create a setting that truly feels alive.
“Tribe” may not give this season the push of direction it seems to desperately need at this point in its run, but it’s undeniably one of the stronger episodes that The Bad Batch has released this year. And that’s not just because of Gungi. Okay, it’s a little bit because of Gungi.
Score: B+
