Actually the most brutal on screen death was when Vader dragged that kid through the dirt before snapping his neck with the force in "Kenobi"
yes
I think this one was a little more brutal bc we like actually knew Yord a little bit. Although that one gets brutality points for being an innocent child. this one was in an intense life or death fight
And Yord was throw out like a bag of potatoes after neck snap in opposite to Vader's making it more brutal
Agreed
@@cloudmaster182that’s a grown man who was fighting back vs a LITERAL CHILD WHO WAS DRAGGED BY VADER AND THEN MURDERED.
Jeki: wait lightsaber stabs kills!
Quimir: um yes but I follow the rule of double tapping after the first stab just in case.
I'm just glad she is actually dead, she is a good character don't get me wrong. But seeing lightsabers actually function the way they are suppose to makes me happy.
@@wolxthewolf3362Yes. One of the few Disney shows that makes lightsabers work the correct way for sure
No way she's coming back cause she's not
X23
Bro triple taps instead
I was impressed how they killed Yord and Jackie...
Sadly my reaction instead of being shocked and upset was more like "This is where the fun begins"
One of the worst shows in star wars history with one of the best lightsaber fights in star wars history. Didn't see that coming.
@@Skeptic_Tank That's why I actually kind of enjoyed this episode. The choreo and fighting is honestly really good, and well, this episode was like 80% just that. Also tbh Jeckie's death did just slightly turn my stomach and bother me, actually strike me a bit. I was totally expecting it too, but I have to admit I was rooting for her just a little. Helps that her character had a good feel to her, is played by Dafne Keen who is great for choreography(in turn why she perfectly fought using Jar-Kai), and also the fact that she was a much younger character, not so prudent or harsh toward Osha like Yord was, rather taking intrigue. So with those factors in mind, it made it feel at least a little wrong(in a good unsettling way) how suddenly and remorselessly she was killed, seeing as she was a literal child who seemed like the most genuinely good person of the bunch. That's just how it struck me anyway, I understand many others didn't care, but personally it turned my stomach at least a little lol.
@@MannequinMonarch you're the only one who expected her death. there was no foreshadowing or consistency anchored from previous episodes or other series in general that indicated that she would die this episode.
@@nevous8 why would tgat be a bad thing
I wasn't expecting the Sith Warrior armor was made out of Cortosis the metal that can cause lightsabers to short circuit the saber power supply
Yeah that made me rewind the scene just to see if I was seeing it correctly, real smart move for the Sith
Another crappy macguffin imo
Me neither, but this explains how good he did against all those Jedi. Yes, his skills are impressive but his armor gave him a big advantage against his enemies
@@chaosXP3RT it's a deep pull from the Expanded Universe to be fair.
@@TalesLord It's no less a macguffin. Getting stabbed by a Lightsaber means even less now. There's always 2 Sith. Why don't they just horde all the Cortosis for their plan to destroy the Jedi? Why didn't the Mandalorians mix Beskar and Cortosis to become even better at killing Jedi? How come the Empire or the Republic or the Jedi ever considered using Cortosis or Beskar? They're plot devices that realistically would have huge implications on the Star Wars universe.
I was too upset about Jecki dying to care when Yord died.
Nah she was lgbt
She was the best character :(
@@EvilSnips she looked like an egg and was annoying
i feel this on so many levels. i didn't realize i cared about yord though until a few seconds after he died. it was a little heartbreaking really for the both of them.
She was my favorite character, and I had high hopes for her going forward. All those hopes dashed.
Im still not a big fan of the story but I absolutely loved the action and I fully admire Leslye Headland's balls to kill off main characters.
This is how the jedi vs sideous should have been
Facts, im happy with palpatine killing agen kolar right away but I wish the other three lasted a lot longer
They do explain that battle here. With them saying that the Sith get into your head
@@spankindababy It was probably more to do with Ian McDiarmid not being in the best shape for extended lightsaber duels and them blowing most of the time, effort, and budget on Obi-Wan vs Anakin on Mustafar, but it was just so disappointing how it seemed the jedi mainly were acting like "Oh we're supposed to die here to show how powerful Palpatine is, let's just politely stand still as he jumps across the entire room and kills us"
I can see AT MOST, him getting the first one, but all the others should have been able to put up a fight. They were all council members and some of the most skilled and experienced Jedi at that time. They deserved better.
Wait, you're tellig me that Sidious spiral scream and subsequent slow stab/slash of 3 Jedi Masters (who weren't even looking in the right direction) wasn't entertaining?
Yeah me neither but it's well known Ian's fight with Sam Jackson was spur of the moment and not properly choreographed.
Maybe it would have been better if Palpatine was cloaked for it, that way they could have had another actor take his place and not have the cgi head be distracting.
being neck snapped is brutal for star wars
Lived like a chump and died like one.
Palpatine: "Ironic"
@@jendaar lol
Especially on screen too
Never seen Clone Wars clearly lol
@@bigestofthesmallbrains3307 lol
The bad guys lightsaber was so cool, spliting into two, giving him a lightsaber dagger thing. Amazing loved that so much.
Watching the trailer, I figured either he wasn’t a Sith, or everyone of the Jedi who fought him will die. It took Maul to reveal the existence of the Sith, so there was no way anyone who the Sith revealed to would live to tell their tale.
Yea it was.obviousngrom the trailer they had to die. Now Sol will probably show up on coruscant, try to tell the council and nobody will believe him
Nope - Sol is not going to make it - Osha is not on the ship with him... Mae is. 👀
Let's not forget that Qui-Gon fought a legit Sith and they still didn't believe him until he got killed.
@@seevideonow exactly. Nothing is breaking canon or the expected arrogance of the Jedi!
@@ElKinProductions lol, cope. Ki-Adi-Mundi laughs in Cerean.
Look, this show has been awful so far. Especially episode 3. HOWEVER, this episode was dope. The lightsaber fights were so long and so fast. Legit the best live action lightsaber fight choreography we've seen since the Prequels. Even the hand to hand combat between Sol and the Sith was awesome. You could just feel the anger and despair in Sol.
*And before anyone says it, of course these fight scenes don't fix or redeem the show. Grow your brains and consider that people can like something and still hate everything else.*
When the episode started and the good twin woke up (I keep mixing up their names, lol) and then found a body I really thought for a moment they were going to say the whole battle happened off-screen. I'm so glad they didn't.
It seems we have underestimated them
Same lmao.. could you imagine if that happened. That wouldve actually pissed off everyone.
Qimir is my new favorite dark side user in the SW canon. dude's a fucking badass.
Legit thought Sol, Osha and Jecki would survive this battle. But damn! Not even the latter was safe.
Never thought I'd see someone get prison shanked in star wars kinda thought her death was funny but great fight
Disney was going to let him live
Until the backlash of the “Anakin blowing up the death star” comment
I will say this Quimir as a sith (possibly maybe it does tell but I feel I wanna know if Quimir is the master or the apprentice) clothing looks similar to the comics of knights of ren ... when ben solo met him .. he has arms showing more on screen and the way he fights is similar in some way.
So, we see Yord had a Padawan in the first episode. I wonder where she's at right now
On coruscant
Oh you mean the little Klingon lookalike.
@@castrot2701 I think she was a Zygerrian which is ironic since that race are known slavers and hate the Jedi
Shes glad she wasnt taken on the mission thats where she at
@@Daldi564 Looking at some images of her, she looks like she may be a Zygerrian-Zabrak cross breed. She has Zabrak horns and hair, a human like nose similar to them, but ears and some furring like a Zygerrian.
I'm going to miss Jecki. She was smart, on-point, and when she started dual-wielding, evocative of Ahsoka Tano, that was peak "punch the air" action. Absolutely shocking moment.
Qimir was right, though. "[Sol] brought her here." The Jedi practice of training children, and bringing them into combat situations, effectively child soldiers, is highly questionable.
besides the goofy writing in the end I actually enjoyed the fights, and was very suprised when they killed yord and the youngling. At the scene when yord was spared by Qimir I was like "Yeah they only kill of the 0 screen time unimportant characters" but they proofed me otherwise!
I like how they keep pulling from legends and the canon comics maybe in one of these shows we will get to see a Starweird attack which I think would be fitting for the skeleton crew show I wish we would get a trailer for it already lol
Bro why didn’t they just made an entire series of just this (Jedi vs the rising sith) that would’ve been streets ahead of what we got.
that episode was brutal. while i am not a fan of how they went with the obvious sithlord plotline I do like that they were willing to not pull punches here
The lightsaber combat was amazing, it struck the perfect balance between the prequels and sequals.
Dialogue is still blocky, sets not as good as Andor, and score mediocre, but the best episode so far
Andor is still the best.
But gotta give credit where credit is due : This was a good episode.
Agreed. This wss definitely the best episode.
Yeah, this is incomparable to the worst episode of Andor-whichever one that may be.
She was a Child!!!
You brought her here.
That was the best dialog in series so far.
@@raharmakis The whole episodes dialogue wasn’t that good.
I think it is shocking because it is the one piece of good writing in the entire show so far.
You're just ignorant just like Jedi
THE ONE PIECEEEEE
@@DyLok.THE ONE PIECE IS REAAAAAALLLLL
@@Euphoryaaa can we get much higher
@@DyLok. bring back bullying
We all know Sabine would’ve survived more than 3 lightsaber stabs because FILONI!
Jackie was such a cool character... thought she could have an interesting dynamics with Osha being the new Sol Padawan... Shame.
Jango fett: a neck snap is brutal???
I have a feeling, he's gonna make a bunch of videos about these scenes 😅. Definitely the best (possible only good) episode they made
I have not liked this show but this episode was so good, the fights were amazing and Jecki was a badass and smilo ren too
I liked the Jedi Shishkabob kill. Definitely didn't expect that one.
I'm not too big of a fan of the show, but I got to give them credit. The choreography was excellent, The willingness to kill of two of the "Main Characters" in pretty brutal fashion is pretty cool, subverts expectations of them dying in the finale, and is really ballsy. Of course, pretty much everyone here needs to die for the whole sith revealing themselves in Episode 1 to work. But I think everyone thought they would die at the end, not midway through.
Imagine if this was episode 3 people wouldn’t be complaining as much - still fan fiction but cmon this is some visceral lightsaber combat I’ve wanted in SW
Am I a madman for wanting to see this level of killing occur? Its nice to see that plot armour isn't applied to too many characters at least.
Episode 6: Jecki survived, like many others (I'm not talking to you, Qui Gon)
I fully expected most of the Jedi to die, they have not seen a Sith for centuries, this made the entire Order unprepared. More surprising was the ending plot twist, wont spoil.🎉🎉🎉 Well played.
*Ok, so Mae wants her sister to love her again... but knocks her out, leaves her in some deadly forest with a Sith assassin, who wants them both dead, and she takes her identity!!? 😂.* This character is evil! Why are they pretending she isn't!? Lol
I get the feeling the Sith is going to be trying to talk Osha into just offing Mae. I also get the feeling this isn't going to be too hard for him.
Qimir wants an apprentice. Mae didn't pan out, but maybe Osha will.
Anakin loves Padame thinks the Jedi are evil but chokes her and kills kids. Darksiders be crazy. Also both relationships are takes on toxic love. It's not to say that the Jedi are right in views of attachment but that the love from dark side people is unhealthy and obsessive. Mae had some yandere vibes.
But before that, she was going to turn herself in to Kelnacca and the Jedi. But then wants to fight them again. This show can’t even keep track of its own canon.
@@ericp1139 Okay, with her running away instead of being arrested I slightly get it. She knew he was there and was fairly certain the Jedi would be dead anyway if she handed herself in to them, so she probably just found it better to run rather than put herself in an even easier to kill position for Qimir. As far as it goes, her mind went from "Get arrested where he can never reach me" to "Uh-oh, he's already here to reach me anyway and will probably kill all these people before they can arrest me. Best option is to just run and hope for the best!" since there really isn't much you can do in that situation anymore.
I haven't seen Acolyte yet, but this duel gives me a feeling it might be slightly better than the sequel (just a bit, considering Disney made it)
I dont think hes a Sith. He says the Jedi could call him Sith, but he seems more like a pretender to me
I would have been surprised if I wasn't spoiled right before the episode.
They all going to die, the real sith master will kill them all. And blame everything on Sol as the dark Jedi.
my mom was pissed when Yord died
simply cuz his actor was in chicago fire
gotta give them credit for what they got right, this fight was pretty darn cool
The fight was honestly an amazing fight, I just wish the writing was just as great.
Funny that I've suddenly remembered how there was a Star Wars anime episode that showed us about Sith Acolytes who wanted to rebuild it.
I'm glad Yord died, can't have him claiming anakin blew up a death star anymore
This is what happens when haters sleep on a future classic
IMO, a very good overall fight sequence - certainly the best live action sequence we've seen on Disney+. While expected, the deaths of the "talking" Jedi were impactful - I'm pleased to see that being skewered by a lightsaber is back to being fatal; hopefully, Filoni takes notice.
Hey Eck. at exactly 28:00 mins into the episode you can hear Kylo Ren’s theme when he’s speaking to Osha, just wanted to let you know
I agree that the fight scene was one of the most impressive we’ve got post Disney takeover; the whole thing reminded me of trailers we would see for the Old Republic online game, but at the same time, I’m a little worried. The deaths we saw were in my opinion well executed (no pun intended), but the vast majority of modern Star Wars has proven that Disney doesn’t like letting anyone stay dead. Having said that, maybe we are in a new phase of the Disney era since the Bad Batch finale actually let a character stay dead
at least sol, the only likeable character, is still alive.
This episode was dark
Well, Episode 5 is called "NIGHT"!!! So... 😅🤣😂
So how many jedi are now dead in this series
Honestly a really impressive episode, but I do have one gripe. Yord's death makes the whole "a Jedi doesn't kill an unarmed opponent" thing that they keep harping on in this show a complete joke. Qimer shamed Sol into putting his saber away because he was unarmed, but he just demonstrated that he's no less of a threat without a saber. Just stab him and be done with it.
The Jecki thing upset me because she was my favorite character. If this were a show like GOT with a large main cast, this wouldn’t be so bad but this is a small cast and they likely killed a lot of folk’s favorites this episode. I get the need to raise the stakes and the deaths were well done but I’m not a super big fan of Osha or Master Sol, their acting is top notch, I just don’t vibe with them as characters. Although I think Qmir is an amazing character despite the fact he brutally killed my favorite. I guess what I’m trying to say is I hope they didn’t alienate fans by killing off too many too soon without introducing more characters for fans to love first.
Welcome to the high republic. Get introduced to interesting Jedi only for them to get killed. Did Cavan Scott write this episode?
you cant see the top hole in her chest when they cut to her face
Poor Sherlock Homie, i'll miss his stupidity
this shows writing is obviously bad, but the action woww, id say its above average for sure, better than sequel trilogy choreography. Those hand to hand combat and the brutal neck snapping is something else... 3 time stab?! brutalllll
Where the hell has Yord's padawan been? lol The writing on this show blows my mind with how fucking stupid it is.
I wasn't really digging this show much until Episode 5. I was shocked and surprised that they killed off those two and I wonder if they're setting this up to be something akin to the Terminator where Qimir is hunting Mae and Sol. My guess is we're gonna see Asha become the new Acolyte something probably cemented when Asha learns whatever it is that Sol is hiding which I suspect has to do with the death of the mothers.
Yeah this episode worked. Too bad those characters were so poorly fleshed out like most of the story. I am kinda sad that jeki died
This was the best episode for the series.
We didn't see the light whip in this episode did we?
i thought kenobi is the worst, this is even worse
I love this show, some of the acting/story telling was iffy fir this episode but dang the fight scenes
Did he just fucking headbutt a lightsaber? What a joke this show is, no wonder it's a flop smh.
Darth Shish-Kabob.
Lightsaber fodder.
Most brutal thing is that Sol just walks away and leaves light sabers, bodies everything behind ... Jedi's don't care about the fallen I guess.
I mean Osha bought them time with the bug attack, but they srill needed to leave before the Sith got back.
I think Ki-Adi-Mundi appearing was a chekovs gun to remind us the Jedi council believes "the sith haven't been extinct for over a millenia". No "protagonist" is making it out of this series alive. I don't come to conclusions till after a season of anything ends and this season, this episode was a good direction.
Well handled? Darth Shaggy killing characters that we’ve just begun liking :(((
8 Jedi.
This is what should've happened in the fight between Palpatine and the four jedi masters.
Decent fight still doesn’t redeems this absolute garbage heap of a show and it’s abysmal writing
The sith is killing off characters we hate
Bruh i didnt know that was x-23
'Cannon' or 'canon' fodder?
I wonder how different the episode would have been if Sol died but Yord and Jecki lived
We still need Sol's explanation of what happened to the witch coven.
@@karlrovey you could very easily do that with a holo diary or something
oh wow, morally ambiguous peeps unalive morally ambiguous peeps with lightsticks. What a SHOCKER!
So many dead Jedi
Bacta tanks weren't invented yet 🤷♂️
So do they ever say what his arm band thing is made of? Is it beskar? Pretty impressive that it can stop a lightsaber. Maybe a little too impressive...
Cortosis, it's a fairly deep pull from the Expanded Universe. In a pure form, it can short out a saber, but it is also quite brittle (which is why Jecki breaks it with a couple of strikes), so it is more often used in an alloy form, which only has about the same level of lightsaber resistance as beskar.
@@TalesLordCortosis also has the drawback of being toxic. As we found out from the new Thrawn Books, cortosis alloys can also short out lightsabers.
I will be honest, i hated york and jeckie death, it feels just unecessary and pointless and doesnt make the show better, the contrary, makes it worse, they wasted the characters that otherwise could have been developed later in the series
Yord will need a chiropractor.
A better chiropractor*
@@Squishyk9 and a neck
Episode didn't deliver anything
It delivered awesome fight choreography
It's yordover
Yawn… Jedi knight Outcast used Cortosis better than this joke of a series
Why do half of the jedi have yellow sabers anyway? They're supposed to be for a rare class, no?
Writers know SW lore from a few tik toks
Poor Jaki. Sniffs.
So, what was unthinkable?
Main characters in SW have always been notorious for their plot armor. Not in this one.
I think Qimir can beat Darth Maul
ofc he can, with bad writting he can do anything.
Qimir seems to rely on the intimidation and mental wammies against the jedi, and struggled against Jeki and Sol when they werent scared. I doubt those tricks would work on Maul.
i was so bored and actually pleased they got rid of these terribly written dumb and annoying characters
good for the show maybe from here on out it gets better. thats to say
watching a steaming pile of s*it was more entertaining than this until now.
the Anakin Death Star guy got killed rip lol
spoiler alert. the twins will finish the final boss chanting " the power of maaany" when they sync their force attacks.
funny how when palpatine 1v4 jedis everybody are like : this is impossible he could never have won that easily, but here we have a 1v8 from some random dark side wielder and everyone is like : wow, that's amazing
Yeah well that's because Palpatine fought against 4 council members, among whom some top tier duelists like Agen Kolar, not some random Jedi no one knows
@@adambrunt3851 that and they really should have used stuntmen for that fight to stand in for Palps and Windu
@@adambrunt3851 yes, but palpatine is probably the greatest sith of all time, and has mastered all 7 forms of lightsaber combat, and after the element of surprise, he had much more trouble against windu. in the acolyte, they may not be all council members, but they are all AT LEAST knights given their age (except Jecki)
@@davidfaltin431 Knights/Masters in name only. Unlike the clone wars timeline, these Jedi are in a time of peace. They have little to no real combat experience and weren't as prepared to kill.
@@atrocious7766 That's a good point, but I still think that the level difference between Palpatine and Qimir (there has to be a massive one, Qimir cannot be on the same level as palpatine) is big enough to compensate this
🤮
Cool fights without plot is nothing
Apparently it was enough to get everyone revved up for more Woke Wars. I'm glad I've moved on. Seeing the toddlers clap at the flashing lights has made me nauseous. Watching these reviews just makes me feel better about my decision.
Good things the Acolyte did: the fight scenes and bringing Cortosis to film. Bad things the Acolyte did: almost everything else
