Star Wars: Rebels

For me this was just magic, and to think I accidentally watched episode 2 and just got hooked wow season 3-4 are the best

When I finished Clone Wars I asked if watching Rebels was worth it, and many people replied that no. They said that the show was very childish, with no memorable characters and that the animation was worse than in CW. Anyway, I did it and after finishing it I can say that it's as good as Clone Wars, in my opinion.

It's true that the first season isn't so good, you can even skip some episodes because nothing at all happens (There's a guide online showing which episodes you can skip), but after that the series really does get better. In season 2 many characters from Clone Wars return and there's plenty of references to stories from the previous show. Not only that, but the new characters evolve in a realistic way as the show progresses. It's funny how in the beginning I didn't symphatize with any of the main characters, but later I ended up liking all of them.

In Star Wars Rebels the stories are shorter than in its predecessor, usually of just one episode instead of the 3 or 4 episode arcs of CW. This is both a good and bad thing as the stories aren't so complex as we could expect and even sometimes feel rushed, but they're still pretty good. And since it's in the Imperial Era, it feels more like classic Star Wars movies. The worst part of the show is the animation, it's been downgraded from Clone Wars.

In conclusion, Star Wars Rebels is a very good show. If you like Star Wars you should watch it. The first season isn't good but later it gets really good and you won't regret watching it.

I really dont get why so many people gave bad reviews for this show? This is a fantastic show with great characters and amazing plot lins which just get better with every season.

This show is about Ezra Bridger, a young force sensitive boy who joins a rebel cell with cool new characters like Kanan, Sabine, Zeb and Chopper and we see the early beginning of the rebellion between episode 3 and 4. And I love some of the new characters, especially Zeb, Chopper and Ezra and they have such chemistry together and it is lovely to see how they evolve and how they interact with each other.

I must admit, that I dont like the animation style as much as the Clone Wars style, but it is ok and you get used to it. I get when people call it more kid friendly but still, there are cool plotlines and a good laugh arent something bad in my opinion and I think it gets more adult friendly as the show continues. Ok, there are some filler episodes that arent really relevant and of course there are some stupid episodes, but almost every show has moments that you dont enjoy, but the majority of the episodes are really fun to watch and the bring something new to the World of Star Wars and they expand the Canon. That are the only negative things I could think about and I dont believe that they are really bad or are hurting the show.

What else I really like is, that we get a new look on older Characters like Darth Vader, Maul, Ahsoka Tano, Captain Rex, Princess Leia, Yoda, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Bo-Katan, Hondo Ohnaka and others and they do their part in delivering some cool plotlines.

On top of that we also get some more new Characters integrated into the Canon, like Great Admiral Thrawn, Agent Callus, The Bendu or the Inquisitors. And all of them bring something new to the world and it is nice to see how the characters evolve over the seasons.

The only reason why Rebels only gets a 9/10 instead a 10/10 is simply that it isnt integrated as much into the overarching Star Wars Story as for example The Clone Wars and Rebels stands on its own for the most part and even the ending didnt really get a final conclusion and is still left open. But of course that can change in the near future with the second season of the Mandalorian where Bo-Katam and Ahsoka should make their Live-Action debut and maybe we even see other characters returning. And maybe even there will even be some connections to the upcoming Obi-Wan show or the Cassian Andor show. And if that happens and Rebels will have a bigger impact on the entire Franchise, then I am sure I will lift this up to a 10/10.

Still I would recommend it to every Star Wars fan, because it is an amazing addition to the Canon and you should build your own opinion about the show

Back then around 2014 i gave 4/10 without watching the series, just based on some clips. I was so dissapointed that after my beloved Clone Wars show was cancelled, i got only some downgraded, childish looking replacement series. But i was so wrong... Now in 2023, I finally gave it a real chance and maaan, i got hooked. This show has way less fillers than BadBatch. Characters are built up great, as the show goes forward, you start to connect with them. Similarly as we got to love Ahsoka (I cannot wait for the live action show). This show adds so much to the story of the rebellion. One of the best SW content I recently had, again, my apologies.

I really love this show, I heard a lot of of other reviewers compare Ezra to Aladdin, but in space with a lightsaber, I find that badass. I found the voice work to be excellent, and the rebel crew very likable, I also really love the characters of Ezra and Kanan, they are an awesome master and apprentice combo. I also love the Sith characters, Darth Vader even appears in several episodes and Darth Maul is sweet in this show, I also really enjoyed Grand Admiral Thrawn, he is a very good edition too the show. A heard a lot of people compare it to TCW, which I agree it isn't as great, It's not against the rules to love both shows is it?. But it's still galaxies better then the $h!tty sequels, episodes 7-9 which is a serious understatement. I give it 10/10.
