, Star Wars is in a pretty good place right now, contrary to what the noisiest part of the fandom wants us to believe. At first glance, this second anthology series feels as premium as they come, and the whole thing does deliver on that front. After' slightly underbaked early seasons, Disney clearly allowed Lucasfilm to double down on animation like they'd done in the past with the pre-acquisitionseasons.
The time jump to well-advanced Imperial times is a bit baffling, as the character is re-introduced as, somehow, an engineering mastermind that's already taken control of the planet Corvus and its people. This is where you stand to wonder if we could've skipped the Mountain Clan section altogether to instead explore how she gained enough power and influence to get tangled with the Imperials.
There's a nice touch here about Elsbeth's quiet campaign of suppressing information from outside the planet, with Corvus' population barely aware that Palpatine's Empire is no more. Of course, the New Republic's arrival is unwelcome and all hell breaks loose when she's told to turn herself in. Two highlights here are the Grand Inquisitor shown as an imposing figure after his weak live-action debut inIt's Offee's middle episode that falters the most due to the aforementioned reasons.
