Jedi: no loving.

Also Jedi: big into tracking heredity and bloodlines.

I think Obi-Wan and Anakin having a too-equal relationship might have been part of the problem. Qui-Gon would have done a much better job training him, but Obi-Wan ended up with the problem of too young/immature parents who are more like friends to their children than actual parents. It's no wonder Palpatine was able to play Anakin like a fiddle. The same old story, neglected boys whose emotional needs aren't met are just waiting to be radicalised.

Yeah i rewatched the episode to see if I felt differently the second time and I actively dislike BaeYo in this episode and the way he smears spider blood and guts all over his face is extremely gross and hosed up.

The welfare joke isn't funny, and I don't get the gender fluid comment, but otherwise the general sentiment of "I don't get why people are so against the baby eating poo poo they shouldn't" makes sense.

Agree with the first and second parts, but the rest of that sentence didn't make sense to me.

Thanks a lot!

Egg jokes: Eh. Whatever.

Welfare joke: NO.

Gender joke: Gringy (why he made that joke? Because some fans, jokingly or earnestly -I don't know-, have said that we actually don't know what gender the Child really is, and we don't know how many genders exist in Yoda's race.)

old EU canon was Obi-Wan definitely hosed on the low but nobody knew, including Anakin. I always liked that as a character note. it’s perfectly hypocritical and dogmatically aesthetic. and the tragedy being that it means Padme was right, he really would have understood what her and Anakin were going through, and if he’d been honest and humble in that part of his humanity with Anakin instead of trying to be both the image of Perfect Jedi Master scold parent and buddy buddy brother, Anakin would’ve come to him for help or believed Padme when she suggested it.

everything about Anakin reflects an utter failure of the Jedi Order and Obi-Wan in particular, and there’s a million points where they could’ve turned left on their gently caress up but instead slammed the gas. Obi Wan also getting into strange is super appropriate for what a prick he was

I kind of like to think that Obi Wan got over his feelings for Satyne (or at least, leave it as UST and nothing else) and thought that since Anakin was his padawan, he would end up getting over his feelings for Padme as well.

Also, the whole "you were like a brother" thing says a lot about how Obi Wan saw Anakin as his (younger) peer and not like his student/surrogate son.

No, I don't find it amusing. I've said it a few times, but it's clearly not a good act. It's dark comedy in the moment and clearly in line with and adding to other dark acts that Baby Yoda's witnessed and taken part of. Mando's an awful parent. It's appears to me as if it was meant to rub you the wrong way. I thought it was funny, I also empathised with Frog Lady and acknowledge how hosed up that was.

We'll have to see if this gets followed up on at all, if this is foreshadowing of Baby Yoda being The Worst Baby or if it really was just intended to be comedy that didn't play right with some, but I think the discomfort was intended.

Once Anakin became a knight he and Obi wan were basically bros for the rest of the clone wars instead of master and student.

Also Anakin ended up on the masters council with Obi wan so they were definitely peers at the end.

I think it's honestly just meant for parents who can relate. Who I guess make up the lion's share of plus subscribers. Like literally every modern parent has had a "OMFG what did you just put in your mouth! Stop it!" moment.

That's who that was written for. Not goons who've memorized Wookepdia

Leveraging Baby Yoda's wacky cuteness for dark comedy is fine; like him force choking Gina Carano. That poo poo is great. It's the context with Frog Lady that pushes it beyond dark humor imo, and it does so in a bad way. The whole egg eating feels needlessly cruel and weird with how innocent and desperate Frog Lady's character was written to be... If it turns out she's part of some like crime family, then whatever lol.
