Chapter 24: The Return

Yea, we end on a good note, I think this is by far the strongest episode of the season.

So we pick up right after the events of last episode and I did like it, the only parts I wasn't too gone on was the scenes between all the Mandalorians together but other than that yea I enjoyed it.

If a S4 is coming, I would hope they have a much better storyline that is consistent and continuous throughout because this season didn't have it at all.

This episode though, Din against the blaster walls one by one was really cool, more Grogu was also good, the big last battle was okay, I think it could have been better BUT good, enjoyable action and it has ended where we can have S4 and if we don't that will be okay but I would have loved a strong season to finish but it's Disney let's be honest we are getting another season, if so I think Grogu needs a solid story, Mando needs to be at the front of it again, too many stories this season lead to nothing really. This finale is the weakest of the 3 seasons but it's not bad, 8.5/10.

I enjoyed this episode and the rest of this season, and by the looks of it, a lot more than other people. This show is just surface-level, easy going entertainment in the Star Wars universe, and that's what it always has been. I don't know why some reviewers are comparing this show to Andor - did you really ever think The Mandalorian was ever on the same level of storytelling as Andor? And that it's somehow dropped in quality? No, The Mandalorian was never like Andor, so why act like it? It's not a bad thing that this show isn't like Andor - The Mandalorian is just a fun Star Wars show to watch, that's all it needs to be and ever has been. I wasn't a huge fan of the first two seasons because I didn't feel like a lot happened in them - mostly just Din Djarin hopping around doing odd-jobs, which is fine, but nothing for me to rave about. I really enjoyed this season because there was a lot more going on in the plot and we focused more on other characters - it was a breath of fresh air. People need to stop giving this season stupid 1/10 reviews and acting entitled like they have been betrayed by the writers, when really their memories are betraying them. It is good to see that more people have a higher standard of TV shows though - I certainly would like more Star Wars shows like Andor, so please push for it. But not everything has to be the new Breaking Bad of shows.

Thie was a visual feast for the senses. From the breathtaking action sequences to the stunning landscapes, the episode truly delivered on spectacle. However, while the spectacle was certainly impressive, there were times where the story felt somewhat predictable.

Despite this slight flaw, what an amazingly enjoyable episode that highlighted the show's strengths. The dynamic between the titular Mandalorian and the charismatic Grogu remains a highlight of the series, and the dynamic was on full display in this episode.

The special effects were also top-notch, with the smaller-scale fight scenes feeling just as impactful as the larger set-pieces.

This is the weakest season of The Mandalorian but still very much worth the watch.

While the season as a whole was a letdown this episode was not the worst... but it deffinetely could have been better! Some great and intense action scenes! I enjoyed the fights, more than I thought and they were a bit creative at times! It was cool to see them all unite and fight! Sometimes you just wanna see something cool and this episode gave us that!

The ending was... idk, but I cannot say i am as excited for season 4 as I was for season 3 after season 2!

I still feel like there are missed opportunities this season! A lot of the elements from this and the previous episode should have been the focus throughout the whole season! Introduce Gideon sooner as well as the other Mandalorian warriors, to make this episode even better! Instead It feels half baked once we get to the end! Still some plotlines left open, but maybe we get answers if we get a season 4 or in Ahsoka!

I really hope Ahsoka will deliver, and not another Kenobi disaster!

After the astonishing episode last week, that not only set this show back on track but also connected all the storylines of this season.

The last episode concludes this rather rough season as good as it can. The action is top quality, the effects are masterclass and the plot is solid but not unexpected. It was great not to see Bo Katan girlboss but Mando, Grogu and her fighting together. Sure there are some plotholes and therefore this finale is the weakest so far, but it was the best Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni could do after Kathleen Kennedy made some fatal decisions.

Now this show is back on track without having wasted all of the season. Ahsoka has to deliver so the audience will return, but there is no disaster created by the Mandalorian.

The difference between Star Wars and the other Disney franchises is, that all the others are already dead, Star Wars still survives because the people working there love Star Wars and therefore will never give up making good quality stories for there belived franchise. Kennedy cannot ruin everything!

Now I want to talk a bit about the plot so Spoiler Warning here!

The darksaber is now destroyed in which may be the most powerful scene of the episode. This should prevent a lot of conflicts in the future.

Mando is now settling down with Grogu on Nevarro. This is great to see and they can now relax for a bit.

I think Moff Gideon survived because his "death" was not really shown. This is by far the most controversial part of this episode and I do not know yet if I like it or not.

Mandalore finally gets reincarnated and I hope to see progression in future seasons.

However I want them to focus more on Din and Grogu and their adventures.

All in all a solid season finale, that is satisfying but lacks of the big reveals and plottwists. All the hope lies now on Ahsoka which is produced by Dave Filoni.
