Shades of Reason

First off, I wanna say Sam Witwer is excellent as Maul. I love hearing that voice and he adds a lot of weight to this episode, especially in the last scene. I also loved the addition to Bo-Katan.

This was a very solid episode. I loved all of the fighting and action. I also really like the episodes where the "bad guys" are the protagonists. One of the very best episodes in this season.

A good followup to the previous episode, it is as gripping as the previous episode. It also has some good action scenes and a cool duel.

The story continues as death watch take control over Mandalore. The old scheme of staging a rescue operation from self inflicted devastation is used. It moves at a faster pace than it should but is enjoyable at the same time.

One more thing, I think the Jedi fortune cookie should have read "Alliance may stall true intentions" rather than Alliance can Stall true intentions", as the "can" statement seems a bit negative. Just an insignificant opinion though. The pace could have been a little slower.

Direction: Good.

Script/Screenplay: Good.

Music: Great.

All in all a great episode.

This is awesome.

We get Darth Maul and Savage Oppress AND Death Watch Mandalorians in incredible action!

The lightsaber duels and other action is top standard epic level and the characters, concepts and design is super cool.

The animation is unbelievably good and the action is as thrilling as you could wish.

The storyline is brilliant and links in to earlier and later lore.

Perfection.

My rating: 10/10.
