MOFF HAS FOUND FINALE
Sweet intro with Ezra talking to a picture of his parents
AND THEN FEED THE GOVERNOR TO THE WOLVES IF SHE DOESN'T COMPLY BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Neat action scene... and the one Imperial officer is clearly just Jim Cummings doing a toned-down Hondo. Which amuses me.
...Wait, you're going to launch the dome into space and then blow it up? With everyone on board?
And Thrawn is going to bombard city now that Ezra nicely put all of the Imperial troops in the secure base. NICE TOUCH, though, with the Palpatine music.
Those turbolasers were not very impressive, though.
PALPY RETURNS!
Soooo goooooood to hear McDiarmid's voice.
Eww, Hera just implied that Hondo and Melch (the Ugnaught) are boning.
Palpatine's outfit and demeanor are very Classic BSG Count Iblis. And I love it. He even looks kinda like Patrick McNee.
And there's the first death... granted, it's just Melch.
...I think Zeb just killed himself to take out Rukh.
Gregor's down.
God, Ezra's parents are purple. It's animesque. In a bad way.
Poor Palpy. He gets the temptation route to work on one Jedi and thinks it'll always work.
Ooooh. Force pikes have some new tricks. I think they took the Force part too literally.
Ah, Zeb and Rukh live.
Wait. Thrawn just ordered a full-scale bombardment of the city... but then the dorsal turrets swing up.
Rukh got cooked. So at least now he can't murder Thrawn.
...Oh, apparenly Melch survived. It was just a flesh wound. But the clone dies.
There's still a lot of screen time left for this. And Ezra just stormed the Chimaera's bridge.
PELLAEON! NOOOOOOOOOO THEY KILLED PELLY! (Apparently it's pronounced Pallion.)
...What the hell are those things? Giant space whalesquids? DAMN YOU BEASTMASTER BRIDGER!
TENTACLE TIME! I never thought of Thrawn as a naughty schoolgirl.
Oh shit... Thrawn just shot Ezra... but then got thrown back into the tentcacles.
So... I guess that means Thrawn got either hyperspaced or explosively decompressed.
...Oh, so we got back to operation, "Launch our captives into space and blow up their ship."
Oh, now a lightsaber just slashes the glass and weakens it instead of violently exploding it? PICK A LINE, STAR WARS!
And boom goes the whole Imperial dome. With Pryce and who knows how many LIVING PEOPLE ABOARD.
So... we imply Ezra is still out there. But he probably wasn't counting on a laser bolt from Thrawn.
Oh... we didn't murder all of the Imperial troopers with nuclear demolitions. Gotta have some token minions for the civvies to take captive.
Sabine cut her hair. And... apparently, Lothal has gotten totally rebuilt. The Empire never bothered to return.
Is this supposed--yep, this is post-Endor. Okay, that at least justifies reconstruction.
Zeb and Kallus survive, huh. Oh... some... overtones there. <_<
Rex and Hera confirmed for Endor... and Hera had a very human-looking baby. Jacen. And confirmed for Kanan's son. Meaning... well... >_>
...OH SHIT IT'S PAUL MUAD'DIB--oh, just Ahsoka. Dammit. But now she's buggered off looking for Ezra with Sabine, so at least they're not an issue.
I know people want me to be mad over Thrawn, but I never expected him to survive. It would require too much of a downer ending. Still, good series.

SPOILERS END
Good show. I may have to reevaluate TCW, since I viewed through the lens of an intruder into the EU. Now that the canon was just reset... I couldn't take issue with Rebels, and it would be fair to do so for TCW.
