Filoni gets too much credit. He expects Star Wars fans already watched Clone Wars and Rebels before getting into Ashoka. A real filmmaker would make Ashoka adaptable whether you've seen the shows or not for viewers. I've been a Star Wars fan my whole life, so it is weird that Filoni and Disney somehow made me feel alienated.

That is okay there are a lot of other things to embrace and be excited for.

Episode 5 is probably the most decent episode so far, but still a mixed bag. Nice lightsaiber duels, but that twist sucked! The only reason I was having any doubts through out the week was because I was like, okay, there is no way you guys are making it this obvious. I was actually betting on one of the witches being it. So yeah, the "twist" was very underwhelming. You can see it from a mile away.
One more thing, almost everyone in this show is expandable. Like how in Rogue One where a bunch of the characters die. Only, the character deaths are much more anticlimactic in this show. Without getting into spoilers, don't get too attached to some of the characters you see in the promos and are excited for. While I give Lucasfilm credit for the show's unpredictability (despite the twist), you kinda don't know who to root for midway through at this point. Everyone will either die or turn out shady. If the twins don't win you over in the first few episodes, then you may struggle watching this show.

Did they use Kylo's theme when he picked up the mask? Also using the helmet as a weapon was great.

The Sith in episode 5 did felt way too much like Kylo Ren. I was like, damn, Lucasfilm. Couldn't be more creative than that at least? People are speculating if there is a connection there.

Now that we have better context, this poster makes sense now considering the amount of characters that are killed off in this damn show. They are gonna have to introduce a brand new set of characters if they ever make a season two like it is some slasher sequel of something.

Sorry in case I gave too much away, guys. I know some critics I follow made this mistake as well with this show. It is kinda tricky discussing TV shows publicly than with movies, due to the weekly nature of it and TV shows spoilers (especially Star Wars) go viral within minutes after the episode. Also I didn't think impling this is kinda like a "slasher" was a spoiler. It is like this through out the whole show, not just episode 5. Episode 5 just went further with it is all. I'll try to give even less context in the next few episodes.

There was a lot in this episode. screenrant.com/star-wars-the-acolyte-episode-5-lightsabers-shutting-down/This is what was shutting off the sabers. So glad they are pulling in so much new stuff.

My thoughts on episode 6 without context: ![](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/ee/ca/a0/eecaa02455216c75ecfcd9299f224da2.jpg)

Episode 6 seems to also make all the Star Wars fangirls horney too. It is Reylo all over again.
