Kinda just stunned after that last episode. The first two had me breathless.
Episode ten was great. Tense. I felt for Loni and his family. The confrontation was great.
Episode eleven ramped it up. I really didn't think Kleya was going to make it—my only prediction that missed, but they kept me on edge. I normally hate flashback episodes, but it was only maybe 1/3 of the episode and it was the perfect amount.
Twelve... I'm stuck on. In the end it has to bridge the gap between 11 and Rogue One. It was scaffolding and I just couldn't turn my brain off about what came next and it's hard to create tension given that. It still was enjoyable to see it play out.
I think the last episode was impossible to get right here because the end of the series is not season 2, episode 12. It's the movie.
They had a hard requirement to make this work with what the movie has given them and while it made the series finale a bit... underwhelming, the episodes prior to it were really good. Just look at the movie as the real finale.
Agreed. That last episode was never going to be a gut punch, but it was still satisfying to see it play out. I guess the last scene with Bix might've hit hard with some but honestly I was expecting that when she left. Least shocking twist ever.
But none of that is complaining. It was good.
