I really hope it's strong. Every episode has been good so far, with some (like 4 and 6) being absolutely amazing. Apart from the meme-chase in episode 3, it's been a consistently great show. --- I write Naruto Fanfiction. But I am definitely not a furry. ... Copied to Clipboard!

A mixed bag I like the good and I dislike the bad. The Rancor scenes were awesome. Seeing Grogu get half-assed was not. Watching Cad Bane get his ass whooped Tusken style was awesome. Seeing a shootout with accuracy comically worse than A New Hope was not. Watching the mayor and co get assassined was awesome. The fact that there was an after-credits scene was not. I like the idea of Boba Fett running the place to met out jobs and facilitate trading. I don't like the mix of quality. Shoddy special effects can be touched up in the future. Bad writing cannot. The prequels, for example, will never be saved by any amount of remastering. This was ok at best, but Mando S3 needs to up the quality again. I for one won't be sticking around for churning from Star Wars. It really wasn't acceptable then and it isn't acceptable now.

That episode felt like I was watching Power Rangers, where you knew the good guys were going to win the day eventually, very little tension.

Well we know where the majority of the budget went. I've always liked the "clean carnage" of tearing droids apart and the rancor totally delivered on that front. Beyond that, was a fun watch, but basically it's just "yeah we won the fight" at the end of it all. Not that I have anything against that, and I'm glad we actually a proper protagonist vs. antagonist with Fett and Bane. Better than just taking out a whole bunch of low-character thugs and bosses. That said I'm amazed Shand was able to garrote Shaiz, given Ithorians have four throats.

Also did anybody else think "why don't they just use land mines" while fighting the droids once it was established that energy weapons can't get through the shields and their kinetic weapons have too much velocity We could already see that their bubble shields were either not extending below the ground or weren't able to stop it from passing through because it was a still object, so why not plant a few mines or grenades and lure them into walking over them Don't even fucking tell me two Mandalorians don't have mines or grenades on them when they have literally every other type of explosive weapon in the universe stuffed up their butthole ...

Claiming the Tuskans changed him just isn't enough, as the series never shows any other side of him. Even when he briefly escaped in episode 1, he tried helping the other captive.

Ok ok In hindsight.... Two things. 1. This is what I was complaining about in Mando season2. Nice guy Boba Fett doesn't work. On the other hand (2).... Exploring this character arc to explain how and why he became a nice guy sorta fixes the one glaring problem from the Mandalorian show: wussified Boba Fett for seemingly no good reason. Now we have a good reason. They also did good things with Grogu's training. That episode was awesome.
