I thought ep 6 more or less stuck the landing. The conclusion between Vader vs Obi Wan actually made me shed a tear. However, I didn’t think the Reva storyline resolved in a impactful, compelling, or even sensible way. In fact, her motivation for wanting to kill young Luke after being left for dead by Vader goes completely over my head. I wonder if Reva’s story shouldn’t just end after ep 5. Admittedly, that would draw away from the final scene with Owen, Obi Wan, and Luke, but the faneditor must make hard decisions sometimes.

I just didn’t care for the Reva storyline throughout, TBH. I thought the character and the actor playing her were both pretty weak. I never felt I was given a good reason to care, and her redemption was unearned (I just keep thinking about how she cut that poor woman’s hand off). I’m not for completely cutting her out of the show; I just think her hatred and lust for revenge should be her undoing, i.e., her story ends in ep 5.

Just let her be the villain. She doesn’t need to crowd out Obi Wan with her own story and redemption. Nobody came for her anyway, and she’s not a particularly sympathetic character at any point in the series. It was just Disney’s usual bait and switch that they’ve been doing as of late: People came for Obi Wan/Vader, and got a whole lot of Reva crammed in there instead.
