Rebels: Homecoming [2x16] ✦ Watchalong Reaction & Review

Comments

This was such a nice episode, some great action, both in space-battles as well as inside the ship, + great moments with Hera and Chem. About the carrier, it is a Quasar Fire-class cruiser-carrier, and according to Wookieepedia this was its first appearence in Canon, but it had its origins in a Legends videogame.from 1998. Strategically, stealing the carrier makes so much sense for Pheonix squadron. At this stage the Rebellion is still scattered and it doesn't have the strength to permanently liberate worlds, which means that they are mostly on using hit and run tactics and they have to be always on the move, attacking the empire where it is weak, but avoiding bigger confrontations. Having the carrier as a mobile base works so great for that, specially because the strength of the rebellion is their nsuperior starfighters. This shows that, despite being a "kids show", the creators are really taking themselves seriously, even in terms of military strategy.

This one was a lot of fun! Like Andrew said Numa was the little girl Waxer and Boil helped, she is wearing a set of Clone Armor on her left arm, and has markings of Boil I believe, maybe Waxer too but I think just Boil. And Goby was in Bad Batch has Hera’s Uncle I think. I really enjoyed the force push and pull Ezra and Kanen did through the blast doors, as well as the Mind Truck banter. Hera letting her French accent slip through was a nice detail! I like the detail of Cham and his crew still using old Republic gear. Their ship was a Clone Wars Era shuttle and the same type still being used in Bad Batch, but they were carrying that Imperial Bomber. And then Numa and Gobi were using Clone Pistols, the same as Rex uses.

OH MY GOD I'm so upset that I didn't make that connection. 😭 Thank you!

Not sure if you caught the name, but the female with Cham was Numa...the one from the clone wars episode with Waxer and Boil. Star wars loves their easter eggs
