I only just now realized that they changed Echo’s armor to match the rest of the Bad Batch instead of sticking to the white one he got in TCW season 7.

It’s hardly a new thing that exact timelines can be a bit confusing and/or inconsistent with SW, but some of the lines from the last episode (especially Echo’s line about the smell in their quarters suggesting that he’s been to Kamino with the Bad Batch at least once before), as well as how the Siege of Mandalore in the TCW season 7 finale is meant to connect to ROTS, makes me wonder just how much time is supposed to have transpired between the Bad Batch TCW arc and the Bad Batch series.


Also, the latest episode was quite good. Nothing too special, but it made sense to add a simpler, calmer episode after all that happened in the movie-length last episode. I did like the chain code tie-in to the Mandalorian. These things can often feel quite pointless, but it added to both the conflict of the episode and the exploration of authoritarianism that’s one of the main themes of this series.
