Star Wars: crónicas del imperio

So for the good, the visuals are done well. There are new aliens and certain elements flow well, made some decent connections and ended a question of one empirial operative.

As for the bad, some returning characters were visually revamped which I found unnecessary. A chunk of what I watched left me failing to see the characters logic and connection from pre and post empire. I get the idea but the character came off hypocritical to me. It doesn't have to be a hard negative but it would be if this is where the trail ends.

Neutral, the final episode had me wondering if it's intended to be continued or if that was it. If it is good, if not well what happens next?

Overall I found it watchable and others may enjoy it more or less than I did. There's good about it but plot wise and doesn't have the same connection or feeling of how a character got to the point they were at in other shows, like tales of a jedi did.

A decent animated short series in the same vein as Tales of The Jedi last year. I prefer Jedi slightly over this just because of Dooku's storyline.

The Morgan plot was a bit underwhelming. And I don't think she deserved an arc to herself. The ending wasn't that good too.

The Barriss storyline was much better, especially the first 2 episodes which were dark, and broody, and got the aesthetics right. Even though I was left a bit disappointed with the conclusion of her arc. I like a redemption arc, but not sure if she deserved one.

Now hoping for Tales of The Sith next year on Star Wars Day. May the 4th be with you.

An animated Star Wars miniseries where the appeal lies in the fact that the protagonists are the villains.

It's entertaining but only suitable for fans. It lacks originality, and its production level is far from the highest standard of the saga.

It fulfills its purpose, but it leaves a bittersweet taste by showing much greater potential in this Sith-centered storyline. In the end, the villains are not being properly utilized in the latest series, which is unfortunate.

Of course, it features plenty of deep lore, which is always well-received by fans of the saga, making it one of its strongest points.

It's worth noting that this production consists of only six episodes, each about fifteen minutes long, so watching it in one sitting is the most common approach.

The Evil at the Center. Just as we once accompanied Anakin Skywalker on his journey to the dark side, there are now finally two more characters we get to accompany into the abyss.

The approach of the Star Wars creators is emotional and profound. The atmosphere is truly dark, rarely seen except in Andor. Now, we are actually on the side of evil. Whether Morgan Elsbeth, seemingly a supporting character, needed to be chosen as the main character remains questionable. There are certainly much more intriguing characters in the Star Wars universe. But in the end, after the story of Anakin Skywalker and Darth Vader, we witness another transformation into evil. And it is precisely this that makes this series so compelling in the otherwise rather cheerful Star Wars cosmos.

The most intriguing question in all of this is ultimately why they had to make the whole thing an animated series.

Was so enjoyable watching the characters wrestle with their inner light & darkness, until nearing the end of episode 5...

If I was to retell others about this episode the way the filmmaker tells the story without spoiling it by referring to names and what had just happened, then it would be like... (read without the stuff in the brackets)

"It was utterly ridiculous hearing 'them' (plural, the Sith Inquisitors) commenting on 'them' (singular, a person) whom 'they' (pl.) have just dealt with, as if 'they' (pl.) cared about 'their' (sing.) life enough to a point that 'they' (pl.) decided to referred to 'them' (s.g.) as 'they/them' (sing.)... Were 'they' (pl.) trying to show 'them' (sing.) 'their' (pl.) respect? Were 'they' (pl.) trying so hard to not offend 'them' (sing.) Whom 'they' (pl) came to offend in the first place?

It also confuses the audience whether there were more of 'them' out there that 'they' were referring to whom 'they' might have forgotten about?"

Also, Disney isn't being consistent when 'they' wanted to refer to an individual person as 'they/them' in other languages, if you can read subtitles in other languages, give it a try and have a look/laugh!

Clearly 'they' wanted to play safe and didn't want to rattle the non-English speaking market.
