Snips annoyed me early on, but she matured more than Anakin ever did. Ahsoka at the end is respectable. However, in many ways, she matured in spite of Anakin's teaching, not because of it. I shall remain vague for those not finished with TCW. Just thought I'd slip in my critique while people are open to alternate views without blowing them up to more than they are.

SPOILER *** If Anakin had finished her training, he would have qualified as a master.*** SPOILER

Selfish passion is unquenching.
What strength have you when you are a slave to your passions?
What power without strength of character?
To self centered rage, you will be chained.
The dark side is no victory.
The long path to peace is through balanced emotions.
The first step to gaining knowledge is recognizing your own ignorance.
Serenity is patient, not passionate satisfaction.
Find harmony by understanding chaos.
Become one with the force, which will never die.

I'm just mid season one in TCW so far. Not bad. It has a SW feel for sure...lol (my first look at Ahsoka too - now I know why folks like her.  ) Thanks for the reading recommendation. I will give it that. Despite my early reservations about the character, she is easily invested in. Saw this. Too cute.  |

I echo your views. She drove me crazy at the beginning but by the end she was one of my favorite Star Wars characters ever created. Her arc in Season 5 is some of the best Star Wars storytelling we've seen since RETURN OF THE JEDI! |

What about the many rumors on the web about Mara Jade introduces in Rogue One (Not the Mara Jade we know from the Legend Universe but a New Mara Jade ... like the new Thrawn we have ...)  |

I don't think Mara will ever show up in Canon. We didn't get a new Thrawn really..we got Thrawn placed in a different era is all. |

I am afraid you are right .... but i really love this character  We didn't get a new Thrawn really..we got Thrawn placed in a different era is all.
Yes and No ... there is no Chimera, no ysalamiri .... You are right, It is Thrawn ... but this one is just a Supra Genius grand admiral of the empire fighting a new born rebellion ... not the last chance of the Empire fighting with Ackbar ... Sounds different to me ... |

Don't know what the animals have to do with anything, but I was under the impression that Thrawn was always just a tactical genius with an art history major. His genius was of such a degree that it afforded him the only non-human naval commission within the Empire. |

I know you are right Darth and Darth ... But to me, a character is always strongly linked to his environment... |
