The Sith Lord

'The Sith Lord' is arguably the best episode of Tales of the Jedi at an 8.5/10. Wow, I thought this episode was, firstly, visually gorgeous as ever, but also emotionally complex. This entry truly digs deeper into Count Dooku's character like never before, and surprisingly acknowledges Qui Gon Jinn's death. Its more dramatic elements are extensive yet perfectly balanced, and the score... oh the score! The score took me right back to the prequels, and I absolutely loved the duel between Dooku and Yaddle.

Overall, this episode truly pleased me, and instantly made me forget how bad episode one was. This one is really for the prequel fans, and what an end to the Count Dooku arc... Great stuff!

I didn't know that a visual novel can tell so much in such a short period of time.

When I saw Dooku as a middle aged person I certainly realized that these episodes will show us what happened to him to become the evil we had met in the movies before. I do not like his character because I did not understand his motives when I met him first.

Now that we realized who deleted Camino and how he became the later person I understand. I understand and it broke my heart the way it happened. It is an absolute master episode with all the music and visuals.

It was a surprise that this series has been released and it ended up a great one!

As fine of an episode as you'll find in the Disney era.

An absolutely haunting end.

You could watch this episode on mute and still have an amazing time because the animation is gorgeous.

Likewise if you closed your eyes and just listened to the episode it is still is equally as great.

The voice actors are incredible and the score is downright chilling.

This episode had music like nothing I have come across in Star Wars before. I was blown away by this episode, the IMDb tag "Top-Rated" hardly does this justice, it's absolutely incredible what they managed to pull off here in such a short space of time.

Dave Filoni is a genius, a worthy successor to George Lucas.

The cast's voices were just perfect. Though I would expect nothing less from Ian McDiarmid, Liam Neeson, and Corey Burton. Bryce Dallas Howard who voiced Yaddle was equally good though I know not if she has played this role before, or even if Yaddle has had a speaking role in any previous Star Wars content.

This anthology of short tales from the prequel era is worth the watch. Episode 4 in particular has great story. And the ever deliciously evil voice of Ian McDiarmid providing the voice of Darth Sidius is a real treat. Also Liam Neeson also provides the voice of Qui-Gon Jinn. I am happy that Disney asked someone else to provide the voice of Count Dooku, rather than bring the dead back to life. This series is the best of Disney's animation! In fact this series is the best reason for any fan of Disney's version of Star wars to subscribe to their streamer. I see there is a season 2 in the future. Can't wait to see that!!
