Ahsoka
It ’s been one year sinceAhsokagraced screens and enamoredStar Warsenthusiasts with its storytelling , but there ’s one retcon that changes the ending ofStar Wars Rebelseven more than antecedently opine . For manyRebelslovers , Ahsokaseason 1 felt like a protraction of the animated show . Most ofRebels’main charactersappeared inAhsokaseason 1 , and the show built off of dissimilar storylines set up inRebelsseason 4 .
Despite how greatAhsokawas , it sometimes feels like it is encroaching on the ending ofRebels . The series ends withEzra Bridgersacrificing himself so that he can economise his family and his family world of Lothal by havingpurrgil space whalestake him andGrand Admiral Thrawn ’s scout troop off from the major planet , go to an unrevealed destination . It was impliedSabine Wrenbelieved that Ezra survived the journey and was go off with Ahsoka Tano to discover the missing Jedi . However , whenAhsoka ’s first few episodes came out , it retconned Sabine Wren ’s stop fromRebels .
Sabine Didn’t Just Stay On Lothal To Protect The Planet
The Rebels Finale Implied Sabine Stayed on Lothal For Ezra
It was imply in theRebelsseries finalethat Sabine Wren remained on Lothal after the Liberation of Lothal to honor Ezra Bridger and protect the satellite in case the Empire ever descend back . However , Ahsokareveals thatthe real reasonSabine remained on Lothal was so she could commence her Jedi training with Ahsoka Tano . While it ’s a fleck easier to think that Sabine remain by herself on Lothal during the Galactic Civil War , it ’s much harder to consider that Ahsoka would ’ve outride with her when they could ’ve been getting involve with the Rebellion and making a difference of opinion .
Some shimmy in the timeline of events have pressure the Ahsoka show to retcon sure parts of Star Wars Rebels ' epilogue . Here ’s what we acknowledge .
Sabine and Ahsoka may have gone on missions for the Rebellion to serve out , peculiarly sinceHera Syndulla , a full general in the Rebellion , knew the interpersonal dynamic between Ahsoka and Sabine . InAhsokaseason 1 , Hera seemed to understand why Sabine and Ahsoka had a strike out and blockade Sabine ’s Jedi training . In fact , Hera advance both women to take another crack at their master and prentice relationship . However , this still rewrites much of what we knew of what Sabine did after Lothal ’s freeing . While it does n’t needfully break canyon , it feel like an out - of - character change that was n’t necessary .
Star Wars Keeps Retconning Rebels' Ending
These Characters Deserve Better Than Constant Retcons
TheRebelsfinale was beloved by many because of how it connected the destruction of these eccentric ’s stories with the largerStar Warsgalaxy . However , sinceAhsokacame out , the epilogue ofRebelshas been retconned multiple time . The final picture between Ahsoka and Sabine has been change , with Ahsoka now wear gray instead of white . Other aspects have also change , likeJacen Syndulla ’s physical coming into court .
However , this set a unsafe precedent thatStar Warscan and will retcon other titles if it intend encourage a different story .
In the rarified scheme of thing , these retcons are n’t a swelled flock , especially ifAhsokacontinues to be good . However , this plant a dangerous case law thatStar Warscan and will retcon other title if it means furthering a dissimilar write up . A memory of one show should not endure to make another one work . Hopefully , impress fore , Dave Filoni and his team will be more careful about retconning aspect of shows likeRebelsfor other shows likeAhsokato succeed .
