I think people are reading way too much into this helmet situation. I took it as meaning that hiding his face makes reading his thoughts harder to do because you can’t look into his eyes, not that the helmet itself is blocking the force.
Kylo Ren wears a helmet for very similar reasons, to hide any sign of emotion on his face and to make himself harder to read…the eyes are the window to the soul, and if you can’t see them it’s almost like your facing a shadow.
Came here to say something similar. If you don't know their expression/identity/their whole deal it is harder to read them. It's not physically blocking the force or anything like that
Yep 100% agree.
The mere fact that the helmet and vambrace was made from (whatever that magical metal is called), is explanation enough. It blocks the Force. Got it. Moving on. Nothing has ever said Darth Vader or Kylo Ren's helmets are made from this. I think the reason his helmet looks so "thrown together" is because he scrounged every little bit of this rare metal he could find to make it. Not like you can just choose to make your helmet from this stuff. Besides... still not as goofy as the Force-deflecting critter Thrawn wore as a stole in the comics.
@@timellison847 Actually, since The Force is "energy", and Cortosis absorbs energy, I think THAT helmet could block Qimir's thoughts from being read. The rest of his body was open to Sol, so he could sense the familiar presence. But @lvbo sums up quite well why others wear a helmet.
They could have made a better helmet it looks funny .
Is everyone skipping over the fact that the Jedi haven’t fought an equal fighter in the galaxy to them in 900 years. They have grown lax and ridged in their fighting style. A hardened warrior will most likely be more skilled.
But this guy has no experience fighting Jedi... How did he become a hardened warrior?
Who’s the hardened warrior been fighting then?
We assume Qs a sith. Sith training in legends was brutal with constant combat and pain. Sith apprentices can overwhelm Jedi masters generally.
During the high republic era they fought the Nihil, they are battled hardened, they are no slouches in using the force. Remember this takes place during the end of that time...
People also forgot how easy it is to kill the average Jedi in general; If you know what you are doing.
Source? Hk47 and Atton Rand from Kotor 2.
7:18 if only the writer's made up their mind. "I'm going to kill you" then not doing it. "you can read my mind without my helmet", then no one reads his mind. "I'm going to turn myself in to the Jedi" then fighting them. "I need to kill a Jedi without a weapon" throwing knives around. The list goes on and on...
Darth Maul used the term "We" when plotting with Palpatine about revealing themselves, thereby calling himself a Sith as well. Granted, it was to his master, but it definitely means that he considered himself one at that point. I still think that Quimir is on the ambitious side of apprenticeship, making his actions seem aggressive.
Sol does not read the siths mind even after his helmet is off..
The helmet could have been an artifact embuing it with the ability to block mind reading. The dark side loved totems and giving objects power
So one thing that you missed in talking about the Bugs attacking Qimir only and not everyone with a lightsaber during the fight, the bugs were NOT in that area during the majority of the fight. Osha disturbed 1 bug when they were travelling thru the forest to find Kalnacca's home. That one bug was attracted to Sol's lightsaber. Osha and Yord had to pass that area on the way back to the ship, and seeing the awake swarm gave Osha the idea, so she then lead the swarm to the fight location using Pip's light. The swarm is probably territorial which is why they had to be led. And Osha put Pip's head on Qimir so that even if he knew to turn off his lightsaber, the swarm would still be attracted to him as food. Its not goofy when you remember all the details and context.
... yet the powerful sith was out of the scene for quite some time due to space bugs. he was powerful enough to push multiple jedi, yet can be taken by a bunch of bugs so we can see mae and osha hugging and whatnot? it's poor writing. happy you like it though
@@nah7656hes strong but still green himself in some ways and was just caught flatfooted by the bugs.
Might this scenario be plausible: Darth Plagueis' base of operations (either permanently or temporarily) is on Brendok. He is there because he learned of/felt what the Coven is doing and is trying to learn from them (or he's teaching them what he and Darth Tenebrous learned related to manipulation of the Force to create life). Either way, that could explain how the Coven has a laboratory-like facility within their fort/monastery. Furthermore, Plagueis' presence in the Force could also be masked due to what the Coven had been doing, so the Jedi would only be wise to what the Coven was up to.
His presence on the planet could also possibly be an explanation for the fire and destruction which kicked off this particular tale. Think of it this way: Jedi got too close, Coven got careless, need to scorch the earth to get the Jedi off the scent. Since the Jedi believed that the whole monastery of the Coven was wiped out, Plagueis could, in peace, continue to operate in the background while his presumed apprentice, Qimir (Let's call him Darth ???, for the moment), is out and about training/minding Mia.
All of this could possibly lead to the reveal of Darth P as the "Big Bad" and bring the Muun Sith Lord into canon. In my head, this reveal would be something akin to Cad Bane's reveal in "The Book of Boba Fett."
Thoughts?
Plageuis was only 15 yo the time of this story. Tenebrous more likely the big bad. But they could adjust Plageuis’ age too. They did with Ki Adi Mundi 😂
I don’t see Darth Maulina allowing Qimir to kill Mae. The big baddie has to be someone else
@@ThisIsMyHandle333 If it wasn’t for Sol, he would have killed Mae
I don't think all helmets block mind reading, but that his does (might have something to do with the stuff that shorts out lightsabers woven into it), just like wearing a helmet doesn't prevent Professor X from mind controlling a person, but wearing Magneto's specific helmet does.
Also, I think "mind reading" is a mischaracterization of what Luke is doing when he senses the goodness within his father.
Reminded me of the old Star Trek TV show where the redshirts always died lol he went through those Jedi like he was cutting through butter with a hot knife 😉
Heading towards an "I am your Mother" moment...
He didn't exactly confirm he was a Sith. He said that he's not anything, but that Jedi would call him a Sith. I think he sees himself as his own thing, but acknowledges out of the labels the Jedi have available they would most associate him as a Sith.
He didn't say that. He said he has no name and the jedi might call him sith.
You’re both saying the same thing really
jeezzz... you have the producers literally confirming this, and still people trying to make it make sense against the confirmed statements of the actual producers of the show.... okok, sure, he is no sith....ffs
Are we gonna talk about the fact none of the red shirt jedis tried to use any force powers of any kind on Qimir and basically just lined up for the slaughter.
I'm so glad they carefully plotted this out in depth and constructed such a detailed intelligent story as opposed to making up any old nonsense as they went along 😉😉😉
Intelligent story. Hahahahaha. Gosh your standards are low. This is so void of any intelligence it separates real fans with fake fans like you.
IKR..lol
I’m also glad they arnt spoon feeding us and forcing us to view the show a certain way. I love the subtlety and mystery
Osha saying "I love you" to her droid was what was goofy!
I feel like it IS mother Koril but Osha was telling Yord about her mother Aniseya, who got into the head of Torbin. We've never seen mother Koril do anything like that.
It’s the metal alloy, like beskar. His wrist armor is made of the same metal, it’s unique to him and doesn’t change canon.
The helmet looks ancient. Couldnt it just be a sith relic?
Probably is something like that especially if made of an ancient metal like cortosis
It would make só much sense
I don’t think it was the bugs carrying Qimir off, that was the problem. The problem was that she literally moments before, stopped Sol from killing Qimir, but it’s totally ok for her to do it.
So the problem is like many things in this series…it is constantly back and forth without any logical justification as to why.
This is it exactly. Nothing makes any sense the writing is simply dumb .
Also, we established that the bugs are attracted to light sources ins the previous episodes (with the one being drawn to Sol's lightsaber), yet despite the start of the episode having nine active lightsabers at the start of the episode, the bugs only react when Osha sticks the light source on Qimir's back. What the hell? I mean, I get they'd ruin the cool (and rather long fight scene), but they should've _incorporated_ the surrounding terrain/animals into the fight (have Qimir deflecting blows with his cortosis vambrace and helmet and then letting one of the Jedi get yoink'd by the hungry bugs instead of have using them to whisk him away when it's convenient for the plot.
Inconsistent writing between episodes is one thing, but 4-5 were reportedly done by the same group of writers and filmed together (should've made it one big hour long episode imo). That means the writers can't even stay consistent from scene to scene!
You clearly don't know any religious people. Picking and choosing which rules to follow and justifying your personal rules deviations is the most realistic thing about the Jedi.
Agreed , I now completely see osha as horrid character don’t care about her anymore . She brought bugs to stop sith but stopped sole from stopping sith ! She makes no sense . Earlier episode She touches bugs like an idiot and then they die because of her actions feels guilty , then she brings many bugs to their death at hands of Sith Lord but sole was about to kill him with No bugs harmed and she stopped it !! Plus what the hell was the reason for stopping !!! Because Jedi don’t kill unarmed people!! Omg this breaks my brain , he wasted jeki and so many others he was recently disarmed in the last few moments ( he could easily rearm himself in a moment ) he killed a dude with his bear hands , this is why people are giving so many reviews when you analyze this terrible writing you realize more and more flaws ugh !!Leslie doesn’t care what a Jedi is supposed to be or worse is just doing this for controversy is completely aware that she’s destroying cannon is completely motivated to destroy 12 year old boys love of Jedis cuz she wants clicks eats our hate for breakfast , yea im beggining to think it’s worse than I ever gave her the credit for . She was after all trained by an Oscar winning machine who gamed the business and new how to wield dark powers . Man this sucks I don’t need this kind of train of thought effecting my Star Wars enjoyment !!
Haha !! What Leslie H needs is balance in the force , she should hire Red Letter Media to take all the stupid shot out of the scripts and fix continuity of course Meg you could do the same thing but maybe the balance would be better if men did the job to show the fans she isn’t anti men !! It’s the perfect plan
I don't think it's Khoril who is the dark lord. I don't think the line Yord says has *anything* to with the force possession. People can get into people's heads in other ways then force possession. But I fucking loved the damn brutality. The brutality was amazing, and we *needed* it.
Why was padawn Jecki so much better a fighter than every Jedi Master and Knight seen in the show so far.
Because she is one of the bigger actors on the show. She plays Wolverines Daughter. Dafnee Keen I believe
Because she is. You think every high school basketball coach is better than the players or something? Every varsity player is better than the new freshman prodigy. She is just gifted. It happens.
@@josepineda7987retarded logic, masters are not comparable to coaches, more like pro players. Knights like college players and Jecki is a high school player. Ain’t no HS player going to out ball a pro that plays regularly at the highest level.
Also it’s never at all stated she’s some gifted Jedi or any kind of prodigy. That’s your head cannon at best
@@TheDelethar Lebron James was better than the vast amount of the league his first year. He came from High school straight to NBA. Have you never seen a documentary on a sport prodigy of any kind? Secondly, Qimir is not a trained Jedi. He is the best street baller on the block. There are countless people that weren't in the right place at the right time to discovered to play in the NBA that can play at an NBA caliber. We have no idea how much training Qimir has. Just that he is strong and ruthless. So calm down homie. The word prodigy exists for a reason.
@@josepineda7987 idk where my reply went since you clearly saw it, odd. Yes prodigies exist obviously, that’s what Anakin was, Jecki was never described as one and that’s my point here. Q took on like 7 knights all at once and a master more or less evenly 1v1, yet Jecki is not only matching Q, she’s pushing him back and forced him to use his shoto blade. That’s not something even Anakin could have done to a master level combatant as a Padawan. Makes no sense. Unless you’re implying she has even more potential than Anakin did?
I think he was bluffing about the helmet because if it blocked incoming mental attacks how would he be able tp do outgoing mental attacks. Yord said he gets into your head and stays there. If Corttosis was unpenetrable it would work both ways.
That's a really good point.
Wasn’t this part of the reason Darth Revan wore a helmet so Malak couldn’t read his thoughts? Maybe I’m misremembering that 🤔
He wore it because it was a cool helmet he found in a river. It was a victory symbol against the mandos.
If I recall correctly Revan wore it as a tribute to a slain mandalorian who tried to stop her fellow mandalorians from wiping out a bunch of people but was killed as well
Nope! You are 100 % Correct!!!!
I believe they were aiming for the twins interaction to feel devoid because Osha hates what her sister Mae did, I think that's why it feels clunky to some.
It’s clunky cuz they got an actress who is pretty damn good to play a twin role which would be hard for Robert Downey JR Daniel Day Lewis or Meril Streep . I can’t even think of twin actors that could handle this !! The Sith Lord got done very clunky lines and he handled them pretty well . OSHA and May are just to much to ask for in any actress no one could do this the show runner but off the biggest piece of pie in the history of Star Wars and now she’s got pie on her face
Is it just me or do Mae and Osha have opposite personalities of the side they’re on. Mae has morality in her killings and wanted to turn herself in while Osha has legitimate hate for her sister and the fire. With them swapping positions, is it possible they switch sides and set up an epic final battle of Mae becoming a Jedi and vice versa with Osha. Qimir sees darkness in Osha, he’s never attempted to kill her and has stared inside of her and even covers her up at the end as if he’s caring for her.
One of the mothers is the Sith master. I hope it is the mother who made the twins rather than the mother who gave birth to them. However she was the angry mother and it makes sense it would be her
Cortosis is a powerful ally.
What’s Cortosis? I know nothing about Star Wars lore.

Episode 5 was the perfect way to start this show. the first 4 episodes should have been edited down to 60 minutes combined. Star Wars is best when it starts in the middle of the Action. Episode III and IV get that boost. Very rarely does it work as well with a coast in beginning. Episode V being a rare exception.
Sol: Your dreads are smoking.
Mae: Thanks!
Sol: No they’re ugly as ever, they’re smoking at the ends.
yeah plus when i accidentally burn hair that smell lingers, it's pretty distinct too.
We don't know how long it was before they met up. Besides her dreads weren't smoking. We know because we saw the scene ourselves, her dreads not smoking. As far as them being ugly, both those girls hair is done professionally and perfectly. It's these statements that prove my point, the bitching has nothing to do with the art itself. That's a horrible thing to say about a young woman.
@@taylormadealpha we are just joking, if we really had any real ill will to the show or actor's we probably would have gone harder but ultimately you are right thank you for correcting us.
Anyone else see Dave Chapelle dressed up as Rick James ?
@@jovanleonardi1574 I'll take your word for it; just know there's so much of that going around, I can't tell the difference anymore. Forget this show, it saddens some of us to realize it's still like that. Think about it, if it's just good natured joking around.
I think the twist that Master Sol is hiding, is that the fire in the temple was put by Osha...that is why Qimir feels closer to her, he sees the darkness inside her.
Osha drives the moths pointing the light up in the trees. But the light saber is more concentrated and "down"
I thought this episode was definitely a step up. The fight choreography was amazing. I was more shocked at Jecki and Yord than I was the identity reveal. After rewatching Fight Club the other night I can see the influence this had on the show (for me the film was boring up until halfway through where it just seemed to go off on an unexpected, unhinged and more exciting tangent, kind of a parallel to this episode).
Seeing the Sith powerful is one thing, I understand rooting for them as underdogs and wanting to see them be very powerful and unexpectedly dominating their opponents. That being said the power levels seemed a bit off so far, if the Sith can wipe the floor with the Jedi so easily and the Jedi wouldn't react, it would make the whole Master Plan of the Sith a bit pointless in my mind.
To compare, in Legends Bane has a fight with a squad of five Jedi at the peak of his power. Four of them were battle-hardened Jedi Master veterans of the New Sith Wars, including a Battle Meditator/Healer, and one was a Jedi Knight and previous Padawan of Lord Hoth. Bane doesn't defeat this group of enemies himself, he does so together with his Apprentice Zannah, and crucially protected by his Orbalisk armor. I guess the Cortosis plays a similar role in this case, and Mae the role of Zannah. That being said, I still think the show is stretching a bit what a pair of Sith should be able to reasonably do. Due to the rule of two the Sith were supposed to get stronger down the Baneite line, even if Bane himself was the Sith'ari, and stronger in this case didn't neccessarily stronger in a direct fight with the Jedi. Rather they would be more cunning, more manipulative and better able to execute the Master Plan (hence Palpatine). The Jedi are also supposed to be weaker closer to the Prequels, although you would expect some to be veterans from fighting the Nihil. These Jedi were trained after invoking the Guardian Protocols, hence their less ornate lightsabers compared to the High Republic era, so the idea that they were just not expecting Sith and therefore were not vigilant isn't really accurate. They would as always be very careful of the Dark Side, they would be very well trained to fight, even if not specifically the Sith, and they would be a little shaken after the conflict with the Nihil. This fearfulness is something that the show doesn't convey well enough, although you do see it in the odd behaviour of Vernestra and Sol. It doesn't come across because the show is trying too hard to make the Jedi seem incompetent and prideful rather than fearful and nuanced.
For me the power levels in this episode are not quite right. But everything considered, they aren't ridiculuous or laughable either, they are just stretched a bit close to the edge of what would be credible. If anything, Mae killing two Jedi masters by herself in the first few episodes is what is the surprising part. The reason why Mae was so powerful is probably the Dyad, and the reason why this particular set of Masters (Indara, Torbin, Kelnacca, Sol) is vulnerable is whatever happened on Brendock.
Yeah I can’t wait to see if venestra and qimir will showdown
It is not the helmet. He let down his mental defences.
It's the helmet. Sol reads Qimir's mind later in the flight and says to Osha his mind is clouded by darkness.
@@Tyrone-Ward maybe. Just because he tells her later, does not mean he knew later. Mental defences make sense with him having mental offences. Getting in threads of the Jedi. He creates white noise so they cannot read him.
Is Qimir going to train Osha? He could maybe exploit the secrets of Master Sol to manipulate her to join the dark side. Moreover, although I might be completely wrong, she will be the one that will kill Sol.
Almost seems like they werre made to stretch out 5 or 6 episodes worth of story into 8 ..Ashoka felt a bit like that as well but its writers were better at wheel spinning
They do feel like films with all the cuts and extended scenes left in there. Rather than episodic adventuring with a bigger arc
I cheered when Jackie and Yord died.
Thanks Meg! 🙏🏼
"what kind of sick, twisted masochist are you?" -- lol?
Thanks Meg 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I agree with your guess on the Sith
Not to mention how easily Palps dispatched 3 Jedi Masters.
Kimire says “You might call me a Sith”. That’s is different than “I am a Sith”. He could be, he might not be. There is just as much a tie in for him to be the origin of the Knights of Ren than being a Sith, or perhaps he’s both.
He also answers the "what are you?" Question "I dont know,but you might..."
Apparently there's a quote from the actor saying his character is indeed a Sith, and another from Leslie saying there are two "Sith lords" in the show. Idk I wish they wouldn't say shit like that lol it was fun speculating who/what he would turn out to be. I was really hoping it would be a new insight into the beginning of the knights of ren as well, I still have a little hope lol
Headland said he's a Sith too.
I like how manny quinto character went from a sude character to a huge threat. Cant wait to see the next eps
What if Darth Plagueis shows up at the end and takes Osha as his apprentice.?
Hi Meg, awesome news update, i agree with you i think it is the mother who survived who is the Sith Lord, this was also the best episode so far, and i hope the rest get better to, and i think it fight scene was good but not the best, thank you SWM
People who are surprised that Mae could have a change of heart after learning that her family member is alive and their blood connection that freed her from the path she was going down seriously need to rewatch the ending of Return of the Jedi. 🤦🏻♂️
Cortosis: almost as impervious as Phrik. You have to wonder why major characters in the future didn't have plot armour this good!
So far what the show reveals is that the Jedi masters are stupid and detached from their fellow Knights so that all they needed was for two to force push the Sith off of his feet to gain the advantage needed to take him out. Instead they take turns being destroyed while the "master" watches like an idiot.
I don't think he is a Sith.
Here's the lines...
Sol-"What are you?"
Smilo REN-" I don't know, but a Jedi like you might call me Sith."
He just told him he's something else, something new and unknown. Which tracks with what the director said about new territory.
This is a Knights of Ren origin story.
Kickass episode, BTW !
Also when it was said in Star Wars Episode 1 that the Sith have been extinct for a millennium so what I take is that either the Jedi cover it up or Zipper Face kills everyone and anyone who knows of his existence right?
Darth Vaders helmet is made of durasteel, the same as the rest of his armour, it's totally different.
I don’t think that we’ll see a big viewer ratings change. The numbers of bot/52 reviews is HUGE, and positive reviews are always less common. Which is why I’ll never understand why sites have user review sections - they’re a pointless waste of space.
Episode 5 is only strong if you’re easily distracted by shiny things. The notion that the action rivals the Phantom Menace or that it’s dark….
First off… a lot of the episode is the racist lead running away in the woods. It’s absurd to even compare this choreography to that of Revenge of the Sith. Jeckie does a spinning move that’s cool, but that’s it. We have very little emotional investment in the characters that died (or the ones that lived) so there’s no sense of loss.
I’m sure Mauler will go over all the ways this show fails, and as much as you sycophants want us to go away, the MAJORITY of us were here long before you so piss right off!

Can't Jedi in the High Republic feel people presences through the Force...?
Also, has people commented on how the symbol on the forehead of the Zabrak lady is effectively the Iron Heart?
Supposedly this is the height of the jedis power and yet they somehow won't sense all these jedi dying and investigate further especially after they brought up concerns of a potential sith or at the very least a force using assassin. Given that it's about 80 years before menace it's just incredibly stupid and convoluted the amount of hoops needed to jump through for it to make sense
Not just the High Republic, but in both Disney canon _and_ EU lore, sensing presences have always been a thing. This 'only happens when convenient to the plot' nonsense the writers are pulling with 'force sensitivity' is infuriating.

Thanks Meg! Hello There
So is he his own Padawan? Is he a is he a Sith with a split personality? This s CRAZY😵💫
The Jedi of his era are shown to be much more passive and peaceful than the ones from the clone wars. They don't draw their lightsabers easily, they are not aggressive - and that makes them easy prey for a Sith. They are absolutely not trained for this. If there had been a few Clone Wars era Jedi in their place, Quimir might have lost the bout.
I didn't really have a problem with the fight scene with all the Jedi versus the ones with, my problem was that afterwards he seemed to struggle with one Padawan...
So, it's not ok for Sol to kill Qimir according to Osha, but it's ok for Osha to have bugs kill him?
I think we have to wait and see to make a final judgment but the thing that keeps bothering me, is lore breaking fears. I hope they give a good explanation on why the Sith have not been seen for a millennium in TPM, and not some cheesy copout.
This isn’t the Sith you’re looking for….
Zipperface 😆 I def feel similarly about this series. The first episodes were rough, this episode had some things... but it also had some of the coolest lightsaber dueling in a long while. And some of the most brutal light saber kills. The sithkabob O.o
He cuts down the knights with no problem but the padawan goes toe to toe? He can handle 8 Jedi but 6 moth bugs overwhelm him? He can sense and stop Yord from stabbing him in the back but not Osha planting a droid?
I think Vaders helmet probably isn’t cortosis…. Palapatine would let Vader think he was protected to put him at an advantage…
Watch Qimir end up being Sol's long lost son. Because, why not.
In the sequel trilogy Kylo Ren, who was wearing a robe and helmet very similar to Qimir's in the Acolyte, and very powerful, but also impetuous and undisciplined, and tried to recruit Rey as his apprentice, had a master, Snoke, but it turned out that Snoke was either Palpatine's apprentice or proxy.
Perhaps that's what's going on here, and Qimir, also impetuous and undisciplined, has a master, but that master themself has a master, who's the actual one pulling all the strings. Darth Plagueis?
I'm not sure what purpose having this many levels of master/apprentice serves. The purpose in the sequel trilogy was to misdirect us from how Palpatine survived and was the force behind all the events that played out. But what purpose would it serve here? Yet more misdirection, but from what?
I suspect that Qimir's master is the twins' birth mother, Mother Koril, who survived the events of episode 3 and vowed revenge, recruiting a young and vulnerable force user, Qimir, to her cause, and training him in dark side skills so he could carry out her revenge, which for some reason she couldn't or preferred not to carry out herself, perhaps because she was too injured by these events.
But she herself has a master, whether she realizes it or not, who was behind the tragic events of episode 3 and set it all up to weaken the Jedi by using Koril, Qimir and the twins in a larger scheme.
I'm probably wrong, but it just can't be that the buck stops with Qimir. There's a lot more going on here and he's ultimately just someone else's proxy and stooge, like Kylo Ren, Snoke and Dooku.
IMHO unless there’s something compelling and essential about the twins, I question even having them in this series in the first place,
I really don’t think the helmet thing is that complicated. Maybe it is some sort of dark side relic with the supposed power to block force users from reading his mind, but more likely it’s what everyone else is saying. It’s much harder to know what someone is thinking and feeling when you can’t see their face and eyes. Look at the Mandalorians more specifically the Children of the Watch. True they wear their helmets for very difgerent reasons, but the point remains the same. It’s much harder to tell whay they’re thinking with their faces hidfen. It’s a huge advantage.
As The Acolyte has hit us with sudden stops and false turns, I think that Mae is the Sith Lord.
Maybe the Sith lord was the friends we made along the way.
@@briscocreighton3376
Maybe, but there is a lot which is just weird about this show, there is the formality of the Jedi, bit there is something not quite right. Its the sort of situation where the creator just throws a curve-ball, something which is totally unexpected. A little bit like the Mandalorian when Luke came in, but larger. And Osha seems too good...
Helmets made of a type of metal that disables the lightsabers. I forget the name it’s in legends
I liked the lightsaber dagger Qimir pulled out of his saber hilt to stab Jecki with. I'm not sure I've seen anything like that before.

this was easily the best episode of the show - due, I think, in large part to being able to sideline the show's biggest weaknesses : the writing, and the main character. with legitimately decent fight choreography and the better secondary characters taking the spotlight it was easy to ignore that the "main" plot centering around osha / mae is still the weakest link.
We knew that.. we also knew Who Smilo Ren was... It is the most obvious writing ever. This series has the Writing Quality of Thomas the Tank Engine
Darth Vader wore a helmet because his face looked like Hamburger Helper
I don’t think it’s all sith helmets just specifically this one
In the knights of the old republic games there were several sith helmets and jedi head gear that blocked force users from affecting their minds. That used to be canon and that 20+ years ago.

I've been looking at a lot of videos and I keep asking the same question and nobody is talking about it or responding to my question so I'll ask here...
What happened to Yorde's padawan and why was she not here as well?
I don't understand. Did I miss something. I've looked back as much as I can stomach but I can't seem to find a reason why she was in the 1st episode but never seen again. Someone please explain?
There are always two Sith , a master and an apprentice. During this time Darth Plagueis is alive , so is Darth Tenebrous... Isn't Qimir less than a Sith? Calling himself a Sith, isn't that breaking canon?
Not all helmets block the Jedi abilities. Easy.
Everything has to be about breaking canon, not the simple thing.
I’m thinking the “my mother could do that” suggests a biological relation.
Well, clearly it’s not just any helmet that can shield against mind reading. And we certainly suspect the metal in the Acolyte cortosis. And obviously Darth Vader helmet isn’t made out of the same metal because we’ve seen his helmet get cut up multiple times. I’m not sure where the inconsistency is. They are two different types of helmets.
A solid 2 out of 10..
Well maybe since the helmets metal alloy can distrupt the crystal in the lightsaber maybe it can difuse force powers as well? Would make sense to me. So yeah it acts like magnetos helmet. Thats what my headcanon was when i watched this episode.
I think the twins switch sides. When they hug, the sun is rising behind mae and behind osha is still dark.
Disney Parent trap
I am with you in almost all of your points. The brutality of the fight choreography was great IMO.
Kotor one and 2 both had similar helmets for sith Jedi even headbands the can protect against force even on non force users
Where the shit has Yords padawan been?
The helmet is clearly not the same as the others.
Sol is Qimir's relative. Uncle, brother, father whatever.
Besides the fact that Female Zabraks don’t have horns? At least according to Wookieepedia…
It's a star wars story. I like it! Haters will always hate but continue to watch. I would like longer episodes. Interesting characters!
I feel like episode five finally gave me permission to admit that I actually like this show so far.
