I hate how Maul was brought back in TCW. IMO it was a terrible decision.
I thought so too for the longest time. I can’t imagine surviving being sliced completely in two. (Side note, some people didn’t see that.)
But I must say, what Filoni did with the character after he was brought back, more than makes up for it. Maul is part of several of my favorite Star Wars scenes in those animated series. When looking at the whole, I don’t mind suspending my disbelief.
