I admit, that part of the second episode was creepy, but there was no violence towards children. Not on-screen anyway. But I can't go into details because it's a spoiler. All I will say is, Anakin killing younglings is WAY worse. Pretty sure the warning is due to the Order 66 opening at Jedi school in the first episode. Not saying it's entirely necessary to have that warning but.... That's why I said Anakin killing younglings is way worse. It's always been part of Star Wars lore for every single jedi to be killed, including younglings. People are acting like it's some thing new or something.

Let us not forget that Alderaan was completely nuked and probably had millions of kids on it. And multiple planets were taken out in the Sequel trilogy too. Lots of kid deaths in Star Wars, even if unseen for the vast majority of the time.
A show/movie should not pander to spineless karens that need reminding that "That event happened IRL and we're gonna slaughter some kiddies in this fictional story so buckle the fuck up or get out of here". Just leave real world current events out of it. Me: Hi yes I'd like to order 6 episodes of Obi Wan Kenobi but hold the agenda. Disney:

Kylo Ren probably killed kids too. It's always implied that kids die in Star Wars, but it always happens off-screen. So every time some sick mentally ill dumbass does something in the real word, that is Star Wars' fault!? >_>

Kinda makes me glad I won't be seeing Kenobi's episodes through Disney+. They want to push an agenda, fine, I can do things too.

Anyway I enjoyed the first 2 episodes though they aren't quite great, it is great seeing Ewan back in action. Though the young Leia subplot feels out of place until it converges with the main story later. Also some of Reva's line delivery is weird, and it's painfully obvious where they're going with that character...

I admit, there is so many retcons in the first two episodes. I mean, they make sense, but at the same time I don't know. Felt like Leia should have stayed away from this, but there she is and we just have to accept it.

I watched the 1st and 2nd episode yesterday and they felt like build up for what's to come. It's not on the same level as Mandalorian or Boba Fett yet, but hopefully it will reach it later.

Depending where you live. West coasters sure like to rub it in that they get to see it to tomorrow. While in the east coast, most of us can't stay up that late. That's true, I'm in CET (Central European Time).

It came earlier than I thought, but still lost sleep. Especially considering that it was 2 episodes, which basically makes it 2 hours. At least I will be more prepared next time.

I feel confident that Star Wars has already reached its lowest point and it's only up from here on out.

Really enjoyed Ep 1 & 2 a lot. Chow is doing a great job as I knew she would.

Really seems to be going down well with SW fans. That's good. Still going to wait until all 6 episodes are out before watching any though.

I didn't mind the hoverbikes. I just felt like the chase itself was far too slow. You could've got out and walked and been faster.
