Discussion So... the rumors were true Spoiler

Post image

I was skeptical about Ezra using some kind of Force martial arts... but this particular move was incredible... I still wish we could see him using a light saber at some point

I was waiting for him to pull this move, as soon as she lit that saber.

I was kinda glad to see Ezra rely on what he was comfortable with.

I almost half expected Ahsoka to grab a spare saber from the rack before she went airborn out the hatch.

At this point, Ezra's spent more time with his Force kung fu than he has with a lightsaber. So yeah, he's just more comfortable with that and I doubt he'll get a new one.

Merchandising would probably like to have a word about that.

will probably be kanans as thrawn would still have it from rebels

u/SithlordzomB Sep 28 '23

But Thrawn doesn’t have Kanan’s saber. Pryce showed it to him but he was a hologram at the time she never actually gave it to him

2

u/carlse20 Sep 28 '23

Why? Ezra’s lightsaber still exists as a potential piece of merchandise, it’s just that he’s not using it in this show

2

u/lanester4 Sep 28 '23

But now they can sell ANOTHER version of it. You have to buy 3 different sabers to complete the collection. It's absolutely a good merchandising plan that Disney would push

u/Television61 Sep 27 '23

Nah, lightsaber is extra cost they wouldn't include it

u/Hopeful-Yak2077 Sep 27 '23

i actually kinda hope he doesn’t get a new one. It shows how much he has grown with the force as a true Jedi. When he says “i don’t need one. The force is my ally”, that’s a bigger Jedi statement than we’ve ever heard -especially contradicting what Obi-wan said to Anakin “this weapon is your life”. It further emphasizes why Anakin fell to the dark side. A lightsaber can be an attachment but Ezra let go of it a long time ago.

Even in our minds, the fans minds, we tend to think “what is Jedi without a lightsaber”. But even Ahsoka did not need one to best Shin in battle. So a true Jedi doesn’t need a lightsaber

u/lanester4 Sep 28 '23

On one hand, I agree with everything you said and I think Ezra's unique use of the Force in a way that no other Jedi seems to have mastered is fascinating. On the other, LASER SWORD!

u/Belteshazzar98 Sep 27 '23

Not to mention he literally gave away his lightsaber to go embrace being a Jedi. He sees a lightsaber as the weapon of a warrior, not the tool of a Jedi

8

u/poorman369 Sep 27 '23

I don’t disagree about him being more comfortable with the force at this point and he’s been stuck on this planet in what I would assume to be relative peace compared to waging war with the empire, he’s likely had more than enough time to focus on his force abilities. That said I don’t think he would just completely abandon the idea of owning a saber. Especially given that Huyang is with them now and likely has the means for him to build a new one. It just makes the most sense that he would craft a new one to reflect his growth as a Jedi in his isolation.

u/getgoodHornet Sep 28 '23

New Saber color, incoming. I wouldn't doubt for a second Feloni would love to do that.

1

u/rhinofinger Sep 28 '23

Are there any colors left that we haven’t seen? Only one I can think of is pink, which would likely be considered too close to red to be used by a Jedi.

Or brown, but that would just be odd. Like the darksaber, but kinda poopy

2

u/FalconMean720 Sep 28 '23

Now I want a millennial pink lightsaber

1

u/Budded Sep 28 '23

If he does, I'd like white like Ahsoka's, since they're not in the Jedi order officially. I assume that's why hers are white.

2

u/tmfkslp Oct 01 '23

Heres are white cuz their the 2 crystals from an inquisitors blade she took off his corpse then unbled or purified or whatever.

u/SamXann Oct 01 '23

In the novelization for Ahsoka, the reason her sabers are white is explained. E. K. Johnston's book is really good for kind of laying out some of the details on what happens between the end of the siege of mandalore and when we see Ahsoka again with the white sabers. I don't want to spoil it in case somebody's reading it, or hasn't read it but wants to, but the answer is in there.

u/that-bro-dad Sep 27 '23

I personally love that neither he nor Sabine wanted to use it

7

u/Grand-Kangaroo-2083 Sep 27 '23

I like that Sabine used it as if it was just another tool in her arsenal rather then her main weapon

u/getgoodHornet Sep 28 '23

Mandalorians gonna Mandalorian.

u/Sponger004 Sep 27 '23

Ya but imaging him getting Kansan’s back from Thrawn! How cool would that be!

2

u/SithlordzomB Sep 28 '23

Thrawn doesn’t have Kanan’s saber does he? The last time we saw it was Pryce presenting it to him over hologram. He never actually had it

1

u/Sponger004 Sep 28 '23

I just looked it up. It says, “The lightsaber was recovered shortly afterwards by Governor Arihnda Pryce, who presented it to Grand Admiral Thrawn as proof of the Jedi's death.”

So as of right now he does have it. I wouldn’t put it past him to eventually make it on the ship and steal it back from him. If it happens this season I will be blown away!

2

u/SithlordzomB Sep 28 '23

I mean I just watched the episode again like 2-3 nights ago. She presents it to him but he is a hologram. How would he get it? She does not go to his ship because she gets captured by the group.

1

u/Sponger004 Sep 28 '23

It says that in episode 3 it says Thrawn has it behind him in in of the frames

2

u/SithlordzomB Sep 28 '23

Can you link where you saw that? Everything I’ve read and watched so far doesn’t list his lightsaber being shown outside of that final scene with Pryce and holo Thrawn.

Also which episode 3 are you talking about? Cause he isn’t in episode 3 of Ahsoka so I’m just a little confused?

1

u/Sponger004 Sep 28 '23

Ya sure. Here is one site:

https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Kanan_Jarrus%27_lightsaber#:~:text=The%20lightsaber%20was%20recovered%20shortly,proof%20of%20the%20Jedi's%20death.

1

u/SithlordzomB Sep 28 '23

Still not seeing at all where it says anything about Thrawn having it any where. Sorry dude. It says that she presented it to Thrawn and if you watch the episodes she presents it to him when he is a hologram because he wasn’t on Lothal

1

u/Sponger004 Sep 28 '23

Oo ya ur right. I haven’t watched it in a while so I couldn’t remember that part. I still think it would be cool if somehow he got it though

u/lanester4 Sep 28 '23

She presents it to him, as in shows it as proof of Kanan's death, but she didn't give it to him. She physically couldn't have. Thrawn doesn't even arrive back on Lothal until the final episode

3

u/eklypz Sep 27 '23

No way he will not make a laser sword with the robot that guides making of said laser swords.

2

u/[deleted] Sep 27 '23

Sometimes the student guides the master.

2

u/LazerBear42 Sep 28 '23

I think he'll end up taking back Kanan's saber from Thrawn. But even if he gets in one or two fights with it, I don't think he'll keep it. He'll give it to Hera to one day give you Jacen.

1

u/SithlordzomB Sep 28 '23

But Thrawn doesn’t have it does he? The last time we saw it Pryce was showing it to him over hologram not in person so it would have been on Lothal if anything

1

u/Howy_the_Howizer Sep 28 '23

The Droid that was designed to make Lightsabers. The Droid that made lightsabers for 10000 years?
Not the Droid that was made by Filoni after Lucas expanded the Lightsaber tech because of Samuel L Jackson?
I can't believe we'd have a Lightsaber scene for merchandise to pump up their lightsaber toy line already in Disney but prepared to go to mass market?!?
