Slow pace isn’t bad, but this is mostly just super dull in that decompressed mode IMO. Maybe in light of the recent developments in Ashoka as a character this will get better - but Rosario has been sleepwalking through her performance up to this point. The more vibes-based storytelling I feel like Filoni is going for here also doesn’t entirely land when the visual part of the vibe often looks cheap. And the structure is so weird! The first four episodes could have been two, and this most recent one felt like it could have been much shorter, while also feeling like two disparate episodes mashed together.
And we’re over halfway through. The premise of Other Galaxy is only now starting
It’s such a weird, kind of bad show. But I kinda like it lmao.
