Ok I cried, my kid cried. We were so loud that I feel the need to watch the parting again, but my heart can't take it. Also, HOLY R2!! Also they went all Harry Potter, eh? Or is this some canon that I am not aware of re: winning the sabre?
Winning the dark saber is part of the lore or ruling Mandalore. Something that’s part of the animated series.
Are we sure it's a different show, though?
It seems like Fett is Season 3 of Mando. Has Disney itself confirmed one way or another?
By the way I felt that theDark Troopers added nothing and detracted from the episode overall. All I could see was Justin Hammer off to the side marveling at his creations. And then in action, it was transparently obvious what would happen. Like, these massive robots have no weaknesses at all...except a Jedi. Seemed very amateur. Too much.

Thanks so much for the heads up. As soon as the the cast credits were done I had paused and come straight here. I went back and watched it before reading all the spoilersThere is an end credit scene. OMG
Grogou survived Anikan's fit killing the younglings, he'll be fine vs budget anikan
I think part of that was to show that Luke was ok destroying them. Would look have just sliced through actual people if it was regular troopers? This way still have Like as the moral compass of everything but still kick butt
That really makes it seem like Mando will transition to Boba for season 3, but Din will show up in the new series at points. But his main storyline is now over. This was sort of a series finale for him and Grogu. Just very interesting from a merchandise perspective. They botched the rollout of season 1 by not having any Baby Yoda Merch ready until a month or so in. Now if they move away from the most marketable character the franchise has had in decades it could be rough.
I was surprised when it seemed everyone assumed season 3 of Mando was confirmed when Kathleen Kennedy just said the next chapter of the story is coming December 2021. But I started doubting myself because I kept seeing articles saying Mando season three confirmed. I think she was talking about the Book of Boba Fett and just could not say that at the time.
they won’t give up on Din and Grogu because of merch alone. That’s way too valuable for Disney.
As for botching it I don’t think they did. The whole point was keeping the child a secret. You also didn’t know the extent of the popularity. Merch is always a fine line. You don’t want to order too much and be stuck with it but you don’t want to order nothing.
