Star Wars Rebels Season 2 Episode 18 Shroud of Darkness TV Review
We finally get to meet Yoda in Star Wars Rebels!
Ezra and Kanon are engage in a fight with the Inquisitors, teaming up to get out of there as fast as they can. Kanon realizes that their presence in the rebellion is dangerous and they need to find a new way so they can't be followed.
Ahsoka is watching old holograms of training sessions from Anakin reminiscing on how great she saw him as a teacher. They travel back to Ezra's homeworld of lothal and go to a Jedi temple, the same one from before.
They open up the temple only to reveal that there is a second floor below that was hidden. Kanon opens up a path that is just mean for him and Once inside he is met from a Temple Guard, and is challenged by him. What makes this meeting interesting is that the guard tells Kanon that the darkside is calling for Ezra and with that they begin fighting. Kanon is getting outmatched and begins to take a new lightsaber as three more guards show up!
The Inquisitors, show up as they tracked them to the Jedi Temple and make their way inside.
Ezra and Ahsoka talk about Yoda and his training as well as some of the qualities he had. In a blink of an eye Ezra wakes up in a different space and is met by Yoda. Ezra wants to know how to stop the Inquisitors and Yoda tells him about the Clone Wars and how the Jedi became consumed by the darkside.
Ahsoka is by herself and is then met by a vision of Anakin telling her that she shouldn't have left. It is pretty obvious that she is guilty about her leaving the Jedi behind. The Inquisitors begin to reveal the Temple themselves as everyone is still stuck in their visions. They open it and make their way inside of the temple as it is collapsing. Kanon is once again outmatched by these guards and begins to realize that he can't save Ezra. With that the Temple guard reveals himself to be the grand Inquisitor who tells him that he can still be what he once was. Yoda tells Ezra to find Malachor as his next journey.
The Inquisitors are met by the Grand Inquisitor and other Temple Guards before they are taken out by them. The group makes their way out safely and are saved by Chopper as more Imperial forces make their way to them.
I like this episode and by far the most interesting aspect was Kanon's battle between the Temple Guards! We had already expected who the Grand Inquisitor might be but now having confirmation makes it a bit more interesting! Also it is heavily implied that Ezra is going to be seduced to the darkside and Kanon is going to have to let that go at some point. Will be become a new Inquisitor? It is always possible.
A really good episode of Rebels and now that Vader is back, it is going to be even more interesting as we get closer to the finale!
