I’m a bit worried about its “low budget” look (why have these shows been so inconsistent in that department?) and maybe Thrawn’s physical appearance, but I think that’s more of an angle thing and I’m sure Lars Mikkelsen will deliver a top performance. Otherwise I’m very hyped for this, seems to be an stylistic bridge between classic EU-Legends adventure and the character-driven story from Rebels. Speaking of that, I’m sold on the live action reimaginings of the Rebels main cast - why no Ghost though?. I can easily see this becoming Rebels season 5 - hopefully in the good sense. Maybe one could feel worried about the secondary characters overshadowing our main protagonist, which seems to be an unfortunate trend in the latest Star Wars shows (Book of Boba, Kenobi, Mando S3). However considering Filoni’s soft spot for Ahsoka this may not be the case. I also like that we will be seeing a mix of both familiar (Corellia) and new locations, and seems to be a lot of ties to the larger lore - the New Republic fleet, a transition to T-70 X-Wings, etc.

I don’t think Sabine will be force-sensitive. She learned lightsaber combat from Kanan and Ezra, so when she refers to Ahsoka as her ‘master’ she could be meaning training with a lightsaber. Also the dark Acolyte girl tells Sabine “You have no power” or something like that, possibly regarding her lack of Force-sensitivity.
