#star wars rebels season 4 spoilers

When space whale design so good you can't just steal it to your own cosmoopera story so you have to draw your first fanart in years and revive your tumblr art blog to post it

[other version and image description under the cut!]

Ezra version ♡

[ID: A horizontal artwork showing Exra Bridger from season 2 of Star Wars: Rebels and the group of space whales, Purgil. The purgil are floating in space and one of them, closest to the viewing point, is positioned so that its eye coincides with one of Ezra's eyes. Their eyes are shining teal blue. Ezra is depicted in a somewhat abstract way, he stands waist high and the space behind him, but behind the whales.

In the second version of the image, Ezra is in the foreground, while the Purgil is only in the background. He is standing and holding his lightsaber, looking somewhat lost in thought. ]

Palpatine be like "Thrawn my homeboy I know I said that you'd get funding for your fighters. But I need to shift funds into the Death Star to get it finished up before that dumbass Krennic decides it needs a chocolate refinery or some other bs. Don't worry you'll get the funds next quarter, it's not like the Rebels can actually do anything to the factories now."

There was so much comedic potential that Treason skipped out on.

So much.

Ezra never would have left her.

I think that Ezra Bridger and Ahsoka Tano in the end of the episode a world between worlds are ready for the original Trilogy of Star Wars because we see Ahsoka return on Malachor Temple to see Darth Vader Is ok and before She warn him about Kanan Jarrus's death while Ezra will made the Last lesson to frees Lothal before he will learn about Darth Vader's identity

GUYS THE ANSWER WAS IN FRONT OF US THE ENTIRE TIME(spoilers for Star Wars Rebels)

Okay, so I was watching twilight of the apprentice part two. We all know this scene, right? (Please ignore quality I had to take the picture from my TV and YouTube quality is too low

So this is during that whole montage, right? This part was heavily debated when the show first came out because we didn't know if she survived or not.

Now slow the whole scene down. And you'll see this....

If you watch the darkness closely, you can see her take at least three or four steps AFTER that first one. Now, you can't watch it on YouTube and idk if you can see it on Disney Plus. I have the original season two set to watch it on. Which means this DVD came out before season 4 confirmed she survived.

Anyhow here's the full scene I recorded. Sorry for the quality, but you CAN make it out

Maybe someone else has caught it, but I NEVER did so I'd thought I'd share.

[icantlivewithoutdreaming]

Bad batch finale.

Spoilers bellow. I hope you read this. I need a hug and I love you all so much.

.

.

.

.

I really don’t know what to say. I need time to recover. I don’t remember feeling like this watching another show.

Of course I was devastated with Rebels and The Clone Wars. But this is different.

Tech really meant something to me.

I’m writing this and I can’t stop sobbing.

I was so sure. So sure. I have been posting and writing hypothesis for over a year. I never believed he was gone. Never. Not even a single day.

I didn’t cry when the second season ended. How could I? I was so sure. I was convinced he was coming back.

Watching the trailer and then the episodes week after week… i knew it. CX-2 WAS TECH.

I cannot fucking believe it.

I didn’t cry then, but it finally hit me and I’m grieving.

Knowing that MANY characters in Star Wars returned back from the dead, I assumed it was going to be the same with Tech. I remember being so angry during Plan 99. I was thinking: “This scene is so good. The stakes were high and it’s understandable that there should be a sacrifice. But I’m angry with Star Wars cause a death is never a death. So I cannot take in the sacrifice cause Tech’s alive and well.”

Now that I know… I don’t think that I can rewatch that scene. I don’t think I can.

He died. And I never believed it. Not even for a second.

When season 3 started, a small part of me was ready to accept it. I needed a conversation between the Batch. A memorial. Something similar to Mayday’s. Anything.

We didn’t get that… so I kept on hoping.

And I was wrong. So wrong.

I read so many fics. So many.

I know many of you said that you were going to go back to AUs but I don’t think I’m ready.

How can I? When he is truly gone?

Maybe some of you don’t care. Some of you were right in calling us Delulu… but there were so many parallels this season.

So many.

I’m devastated.

This was my comfort show.

I don’t think I will be watching this anytime soon.

Thank you all for these amazing 4 years. It’s been a pleasure going through this journey with all of you.

[sadiecoocoo]

Anyone else forget that show ended cuz it’s been so long since it ended and you think, “wonder when the next season is gonna be announced,” and then you look it up in case you missed it and then you get a crushing realization that it ended almost a decade ago now and you haven’t rewatched it in so long that you don’t even remember the ending?

So guess who’s abt to rewatch Star Wars rebels (spoilers) and scream from joy at Ashoka’s reveal again and cry at her death and cry at Kanan’s death and scream at Ashoka’s revival and cry at Ezra’s sort of death and then spiral into watching the Ashoka show because some how I’ve yet to watch it and then decide to rewatch all of clone wars and then the bad batch! Yes I am a hardcore Star Wars fan it has been bred into me and yes I do think the sequels suck, but it is due to the lazy writing and endless amount of plot holes and how they nerfed every original character and how they scrapped the original story that was supposed to be abt Leia and how she became a Jedi and also slayed as a literal queen and GOD DAMNIT I WANNA SEE THAT EVEN IF ITS AN EXTRA MOVIE OR (I would love to this actually) IF ITS ANIMATED BECSUSE GID DAMNIT THE ANIMATED STAR WARS SHOWS ARE INCREDIBLE AND I HAVE FOUND NO FAULT IN ANY OF THEM AND YES I DO THINK ASHOKA CARRIED A BIG PART OF SAID ANIMATED SHOWS AND SHE IS MY FAVORITE CHARACTER IN ALL THE FRANCHISE AND THE ONLY ONES THAT COME CLOSE TO TOPPING HER ARE REX, OBIWAN, SABINE (I named my cat after her), WRECKER, FIVES, ALL OF THE CLONES, AND MAYBE EZRA AND PROBABLY R2-D2 AND POSSIBLY PADME ABD MAYBE HAN SOLO AND CHEWY AND LUKE AND LEIA AND ANIKAN AND REX AND HUNTER AND ECHO AND ALL I am dead serious I mean ALL the clones (except for that one that sided with that racist [clonist?] Jedi) I especially love the chaotic ones *cough cough* wrecker *cough cough*

Did I mention that I like Ashoka?

Also if any of you have no idea who half of these characters are, I highly recommend you watch the clone wars and Rebels! A lot of ppl think they’re more children’s shows, but they do explore a few dark themes (there is shameless murder in a lot of the episodes and multiple war crimes committed)… also seeing the development of animation from s1 of clone wars all the way to s7 (it’s been 4 years since clone wars officially ended holy shit) is insane and so satisfying! Seriously, please go watch it you won’t regret it! Also the bad batch is a sequel to the clone wars that takes place right after order 66 and it’s rlly interesting too :)

I watched andor. I liked it.

Andor and Rogue One Spoilers...

Cassian is a good guy but he kills people. I understand why he killed on rogue one he just followed orders(he was being a good soldier😕)And the speech he gave to jyn when he explained they were following orders they were doing all the bad things for the rebellion, for th greater good.They knew what they were doing was wrong but they belived in the rebellion and did what they said to them. But i still dont like that he killed a lot of people, other than that, I liked Cassian.

Seeing people rise up for themselves, i like it. I really love rebellions. And Andor gave us rebellion in sw universe.

I think syril and deedra was useless i didnt like them.

Cassians promise in the last episode. Did he keep his promise? I know he died in rogue one but will there be a season 2. And that season will maybe tell us what did cassian did between the movie and season 1. Did he find his sister? maybe that season they can give some answers. well maybe they answered but i am new to this universe so i dont know if they did.

Luthen's converstation to Lonni. It is sad but true. Luthen is so cool. But he did so many bad things to save the days he will never see. And some good people became what they swore to destroy and Luthen is one of those people.

Prison scenes were good when they got out i was so happy. but Kino didnt come with cassian and melshi what happend to him after that?

Nemik's manifesto did Cassian read it? so amny questions ı hope there will be a season 2.

Maarva's funeral was good to. Show's effects were so good but in storytelling there were something that not right or there should be more to it.

This article was very messy but I sent it without editing. Because while I was writing this article, I finished Star Wars 5. I finished Rogue One and Star Wars 4 yesterday. There are things I need to write about them before I forget.

I have one last question, mon mathma was lider of the rebellion in rebels but in andor she is not yet. I was watching Star Wars chronologically and according to the order I watched rebels was before andor. does it take place simultaneously, like the clone wars and Star Wars 3?

In the end i liked the show and it's tone. i'll probably start writing about rogue one tomorrow .

[hashtagloveloses]

I thought Kanan and Hera were married the whole time but apparently not?? Like they finally kissed on screen in season 4 and official sources say they were just platonic in the previous seasons?? Doesn’t make sense to me. (Haven’t finished the show yet but I’ve been a Star Wars fan for a long time and have come across posts about Rebels before I cared about spoilers so I know what’s coming :( Bracing myself)

watching rebels LIVE as it aired and finding out they weren’t even dating was so insane bc in that first SHORT where we meet them they’re like married behavior and i was like wait HUH?! this is like what being queerbaited is like but with an m/f couple

also….oh bud

Top 10 Media that would benefit from spinoffs

After doing my last article, it got me thinking about specific lore I didn't put on the list because most of it is good the way it is, BUT that doesn't mean the lore should not be expanded. Note that there is a difference between a spinoff and a prequel or sequel. A spinoff is a story that takes place in the same universe as the main story of a media, but it is independent from the main story. It is it's own thing with its own unique set of characters with their own arc kind of like Star Wars Rebels, The Bad Batch, Family Matters, Picard and the video game Alien Isolation. Sometimes, they can happen before, during or after the main story, but they are still independent from it. The great thing about them also is that they keep lore alive without breaking it (most of the time) and even if they fail, it's no big deal because the main story still remains intact.

Note that there are spoilers ahead and I will not count media that already has spinoffs like Resident Evil, Jurassic Park, Robocop, Terminator, The Walking Dead, Star Wars, most Marvel media and anything else that has side stories. Anyway, onto the list.

1- The Brendan Fraser Mummy featuring anyone BUT the O'Connell's - I think the third film should be retconned and reinvented as a spinoff. In fact, I could think of so many spinoff ideas for this series because there are so many mummies to unearth out there and they don't even have to come from Egypt which is pretty cool. While I think the O'Connell family's finished after the second film, you can still do things with Jonathan Carnahan (Evelyn O'Connell's brother), the Medjai or just use new characters entirely. Plus, you can still do it now. I say we go for it! By the way, I know people think the Scorpion King is a spinoff series, but actually, it is a prequel at best and it failed because it had no mummies. And yes, that matters. The franchise is literally called "The Mummy", so it needs to have a mummy.

2- The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air featuring Hilary and Ashley Banks - I think this series could have benefitted from a spinoff featuring the secondary characters. Specifically, Hilary and Ashley who went on to become roommates in the last episode. The Banks sisters are very underrated as characters as is their dynamic because those few times we did see the two of them together, they played well off each other. Plus, in times where Ashley really needed her, Hilary was a good big sister. I think a spinoff sitcom featuring Hilary and Ashley's new life together while also building up their lives as grown women would have been great to see and maybe, we can still see how it all worked out.

3- Sailor Moon spinoff featuring Sailor Chibi Moon - I love Sailor Moon, but while I am one of those fans who believe it should have ended with season 3, that doesn't mean the lore should have ended altogether there. I think they had the right idea about making stories where Chibiusa was the focus, but they should have taken the plunge even deeper. I think Sailor Chibi Moon should get her own spinoff series where she is saving the Earth while standing on her own two feet without being in her mother's shadow. I would even age her up a little. Now, hear me out. This is NOT a sequel series, but a spinoff still because it is not featuring the main original cast. This is a secondary character with her own team. It is a new Sailor Moon and a new story which I think still has potential.

4- Lord of the Rings spinoff exploring the stories of the secondary and tertiary characters and more - Ok, Rings of Power was a dud, but the idea of exploring the stories in this lore is not a bad idea. Did you know that there are entire areas in Middle Earth that mirror Asia, Africa and more? I would love to see a spinoff that explores what was going on in those parts of the world or seeing the tragic story of what happened to the dwarves in the Mines of Moria kind of like how Star Wars did Rogue One. Or a spinoff series telling the story of Gollum and his descent into villainy. With the right team and creators, you can make the LotR lore into a much bigger world.

5- Disney's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs spinoff featuring only the Dwarfs - Disney was onto something when it gave Aladdin and the Little Mermaid their own spinoff TV series that explored the lore and worlds afterwards. To be honest, I think they should do the same thing with the dwarves of Snow White. After all, the dwarves themselves are heroic, entertaining and beloved by fans. Plus, considering that the story is German, it would be very interesting to make use of German lore. It could be fun and great for kids while also appealing to adults. I mean, look at how great the spinoff media featuring Tinkerbell and the fairies was.

6- Dead Island spinoff featuring side stories - Like Resident Evil, Silent Hill and many other horror genre games, this franchise would have benefitted from having spinoff media because it did have the good bones to make some. In a zombie outbreak, you can make so many stories featuring random people trying to survive. The only condition here is that it has to happen on an island which within itself is doable because there are many tropical islands. Or perhaps an artificial island like a rig or a secret one with labs. This is one of the greatest franchises and the most it has is one DLC and a franchise we waited too long for. It deserves more.

7- Dying Light spinoff featuring original side pieces - Like Dead Island, this game had many stories happening in the background, but we didn't get to see them. Also, it only has a DLC and a single sequel. I would love to see more side stories that fill in missing gaps and feature fan favourite secondary characters. Or even new characters we can relate to.

8- King of the Hill spinoff featuring Luanne's family - King of the Hill is one of the best animated sitcoms that was adult without being dark or mean spirited yet at the same time, funny without being silly or over the top. It also had an amazing cast of characters that grew into their own namely Luanne who eventually married and had a child. Her story is compelling enough as it is as she went from coming from a broken home with abuse, alcoholism and worse, to creating a loving family of her own. She's a survivor who came out on the other side without being broken thanks to extended family. Speaking of which, I admit it would not be the same without the original voice actress (rest her soul), but the character herself is relevant especially because in many ways, Luanne mirrors Hank. I think she and her family would be awesome to see in their own warm hearted and funny sitcom.

9- Team Fortress 2 spinoff media featuring the Medic - It is no secret that the Medic is quite possibly the very best part of the game. Yet he is also the most sidelined for some reason. I think the Medic deserves his day not just as a member of the team, but in the spotlight in any media frankly. It can be his own comic, his own show, his own movie or even his own game. The Medic has shown time and time again that he is not to be underestimated. I can think of 101 stories to write about him alone though the one that most often comes to mind is a sitcom/action/comedy show about his life after the war as a married man and father.

10- Disney's Tangled the series spinoff featuring Cassandra- While Rapunzel's story is done and over, Cassandra's is not. She went from being a friend, a villain, a secondary heroine to a travelling adventurer. She was not only a good foil to Rapunzel as a sisterly figure, but also a great character in her own right. She is a woman of action with a tomboyish streak, but is open to meeting the right guy (though she won't say it). She is also a strong female character who isn't a Mary Sue or tries to upstage or replace Rapunzel. Not even when she went bad for a while. Cassandra fit neatly into the lore of Disney's Rapunzel and I would love to see where her own independent story goes and maybe, we should. She is a truly unique female character in the lore of Disney as it is as she is not a princess, she was born out of wedlock and it was her own mother who abused and abandoned her.

Anyway, that is my list. What is yours?

[beasanfi1997]

I actually like that part where Ezra almost find out that Darth Vader Is Anakin when he continue to fight against Ahsoka in Malachor Temple while Ezra was in a world between worlds

[sailforvalinor]

I saw you post on seasons 1 through 4 of Dr. Who and I wanted to know more about your accidentally Christian pile. What are some other works do think unintentionally emphasized Christian doctrines or morals?

Ooooooh, really good question!!

So the first thing that comes to mind here is Marvel’s Agents of Shield--each season has it's own story arc and themes, so it's hard to pin down just one thing here, so I'll just talk about a few. I'll talk about the obvious one first: Season 3 in particular has a lot of Christian imagery (though in this case, it's definitely on purpose). You see a flash-forward of a cross necklace at the beginning of the season floating in a spaceship in space right before it blows up, and then you watch as that necklace get passed around from person to person, knowing that whoever ends up with it at the end of the season is going to die. I won't spoil anything more, other than to say that it results in quite a bit of Christ/crucifixion imagery and themes.

Other than this, there's a lot about the redemptive power of love (Fitzsimmons my beloved), individual guilt and how to handle it, how to let go of shame, the inevitable defeat of evil--I know there's more, but that's all I can think of off the top of my head. (AOS girlies/gents, feel free to chime in!) Additionally, one of the main characters explicitly a Christian, and while he's not portrayed perfectly, he's never ridiculed for it by the other characters or the narrative, which is a breath of fresh air. There are of course some things I don't approve of (prepare to have your skip button ready once or twice in the earlier seasons), but it's still a fantastic show, and by far the best show Marvel has ever come out with.

Harry Potter’s a pretty obvious one—Harry has to sacrifice himself and be fully willing to die to kill Voldemort, the fight with the basilisk in Chamber of Secrets has some Biblical parallels—but I’m fairly certain that these themes were deliberate, so I suppose they don’t really count. But they do to me, so 😂

Star Wars is another big one for me—of course, a la George Lucas’s original vision, SW is much more directly influenced by Buddhism, but I find that it often can’t help dipping into Christian themes. I find this is especially true with anything that has Dave Filoni’s name attached, likely because he in turn is pretty influenced by Tolkien and Lewis (Ahsoka is meant to parallel Gandalf, the World Between Worlds in Rebels was inspired by The Magician’s Nephew’s Wood Between Worlds, etc). Mandalorian season 3 in particular blew me away—baptism! Redemption! Rebirth! Mandalorian denominations/sects! Seriously, I was expecting them to come down hard on the strange rules that sect holds themselves to and for Mando to completely reject them—but they didn’t?? It was SO fascinating.

Kingdom Hearts is probably one of my favorite demonstrations of John 15:13: “greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.” Otherwise, I can’t really think of any super prevalent Christian themes I noticed, but that one is just so strong and so important to the themes of the series, I couldn’t not mention it.

Final Fantasy XV has something similar going for it—although what I’m going to say has MAJOR spoilers, so if don’t want to be spoiled, go ahead and skip this (and play the game because it’s great—but Noctis having to willingly sacrifice himself by sitting on a throne in order to purify his kingdom is as blatant as you get. For crying out loud, he’s called the One True King. However this only holds true for the base game—the dlc’s (except for Episode Prompto, but that’s just because it doesn’t really apply to that plotline, also it’s incredible) and the novel in my opinion kind of ruin it.

Legend of Zelda is an interesting one, because it is of course heavily inspired by Shinto, but a few Christian themes sort of snuck their way in there. In Skyward Sword (oh and spoilers for Skyward Sword). Hylia, though certainly not meant to be a direct Christ figure, chooses to be reborn as a Hylian (basically a human) in order to save her people. The difference here is that Zelda does not know that she’s Hylia, and she never regains her goddess status (at least presumably until she dies of old age), but it’s an interesting parallel nonetheless. Also, there’s a famously creepy cutscene in Twilight Princess where we get the story of how the Twili were banished from Hyrule for dabbling in dark magic, and the sequence has always reminded me of the Fall.

Those were just a few that I thought of off the top of my head—I’m sure there are more, but that’s all that’s coming to me at the moment 😂

[darthyourmomgay]

Hey you yes you!

Are you a Star Wars fan who doesn’t have time to watch all of rebels before Ahsoka comes out but you desperately need context for the Ghost Crew side of the show? Well boy do I have the list for you!

Behold the essential Star Wars Rebels episodes!

Season 1

S1E1-2 Spark of the Rebellion

This episode will introduce you to all of the main players of the Star Wars Rebels universe.

S1E3 Droids in Distress

This episode has three main functions, it gives context to Zeb’s character and sets up his series wide arc, develops the Empire as an institution, and has C3P0 and R2D2!

S1E7 Out of Darkness

This is the big Sabine character development episode, a character which will definitely be important to the Ahsoka show.

S1E8-9 Empire Day- Gathering Forces

This is THE Ezra episode of season 1. It explains his backstory and helps the audience understand him better. It is also just a really fun episode. It has one of my favorite Kanan moments.

S1E14-15 Rebel Resolve-Fire Across The Galaxy

This is the season 1 two part finale. It has major character beats for almost everyone and sets up season 2.

Season 2

S2E1-2 Siege of Lothal

This two part arc sets up all of season 2. Also has animated Darth Vader (very cool)

S2E3-4 The Lost Commanders-ROTOR

This is an arc which stars some major players of the clone wars! These episodes gives context to what clones are doing at this point in the timeline as well as provides an important character beat for Kanan.

S2E7 Wings of the Master

Very important Hera episode! Shares some of her backstory and is just all around a wholesome time!

S2E8 - Blood Sisters

An important Sabine episode. Also the Sabine is sapphic holy text. Sabine tragic backstory time.

S2E11 - Legacy

One of the most important Ezra episodes. This will have you crying by the end of it. It is also an incredible episode all around

S2E14 - Legends of The Lasat

One of THE Zeb episodes! The score, the animation, the writing. There are so many good things to say about this one.

S2E16 Homecoming

A very important Hera episode. This episode displays so much of Hera’s resilience as a character.

S2E17 The Honorable Ones

If you were going to watch any Zeb episode this has got to be in the top 3. It showcases the character development he has gone through throughout the last 2 seasons. Also this is the Kalluzeb holy text you’ve heard so much about.

S2E21-22 Twilight of the Apprentice

Ahhhh sooooooo good! At the the time this was the resolution to Ahsoka’s story that we never got and it still is such a good resolution to The Clone Wars. The score, the animation, the writing, you will be crying by the end of this.

Season 3

S3E3 The Holocrans of Fate

Very good Ezra episode. Is sorta the conclusion of his dark side era (for now). Also Darth Maul realness in this episode!!!

S3E4 The Antilles Extraction

Sabine in her spy era!!! A very good display of her character. Also there’s a very good twist at the end of this one.

S3E5 Hera’s Heroes

Hera episode!!!! Also Thrawn episode and God is he scary in this one.

S3E10 An Inside Man

Many a twist and turn in this episode. I can’t say much more without giving it away.

S3E20 - Twin Suns

Ezra episode but once again I can’t say much more than that without giving it away.

S3E21-22 Zero Hour

Ahhhh it’s so hard to explain season 3 without spoilers. But know this is a very good Thrawn episode and a very good Ghost Crew episode

Season 4

S4E1-2 Heroes of Mandolore

Sabine episodes as well as continuation of the siege of Mandolore arc from the Clone Wars

S4E5 The Occupation

The following episodes are important for largely the same reasons. It sets up the end of the story and the end of these arcs

S4E7 Kindred

S4E9 Rebel Assault

S4E10 Jedi Night

Bring some tissues (can’t say anything else because it’s a spoiler)

S4E11 - Dume

OUCH! Great character moments for everyone but at what cost

S4E12 Wolves and a Door

Amazing world building

S4E13 The World Between Worlds

Very good Ezra episode!!!

S4E14 A Fool’s Hope

Very fun team up between familiar faces from across Star Wars. A much needed breath of air between two major episodes. But still super important

-S4E15 Family Reunion - and Farewell

The end!!! Sets up where all the characters are going to be in Ahsoka. Bring tissues to this one too.

[givemea-dam-break]

not ONLY did lockwood and do get cancelled, but i’ve also been rewatching star wars rebels with my boyfriend and had to watch the horrid horrid horrid season 4 episode 10 where kanan 1. cuts his hair into the worst mullet i’ve ever seen AND shaved his beard, and 2.
