I honestly was blown away by the finale, primarily the Obi-Wan and Vader parts (Not to say the Reva and Lars part was terrible, of course, but that’s not really the focus of the series).

The duel honestly felt like such a wellmade emotional bookend to the PT era, with the reveal of Vader’s true face being both the breaking point for Obi-Wan (and honestly, thanks to Ewan’s acting, it hit me pretty hard too), while also being the start of how he learns to accept it, with the lie of Anakin perishing by Vader’s hands.

Honestly my only real point of, idk, is Reva’s motivations in the finale. Really feels like they wanted to kill her off, changed their mind, but couldn’t think of anything for her to really do, other than somehow make her good in the end. Which sucks because I honestly really liked her in the rest of the series, and feel her being killed by Vader would’ve been a great end to her story.

In general I’d say I really liked this series. There were a fair few slow moments near the start, but when it started to pick up, it really began to soar.

Honestly really interested in seeing the film edits people do of this one.
