Darn good questions. Ahsoka’s turning points are really “Storm Over Ryloth” and “Jedi Lost” so both are used in the first half of the series to develop her. Before that she is very much treated as a supporting character with key scenes under Anakin, Luminara and Plo. Her more annoying moments are largely trimmed.

I’ve attempted to serialise episodic arcs by accompanying them with another arc that fits thematically and follows on from film to film, creating momentum. Characters that don’t feature in one part of that are able to move into the self contained arc and then back into the other, usually for the climax. In a couple cases I have hybridised scenes to blend two plot lines more directly.

As with all my Star Wars animated edits I’ve had to pick which characters and elements stand out most to me. A good example of a great arc I’ve cut is Umbara because it’s too self contained. I don’t feature Onderon and Saw, or Lux Bonteri in my CW films either, although I’d like to have. Saw is featured in both my Bad Batch and Rebels edits though which is more than enough.

Character focus is really the trio and Yoda, Ventress and Maul with spotlights for reoccurring characters like Bane, Boba, Tarkin, Barriss, Grievious, Echo & Fives, Bo Katan, etc.
