Star Wars Rebels Season 3 Episode 1 Steps Into Shadow Review
Star Wars Rebels is back!
The episode starts off with a rescue mission lead by Ezra. He is older and now has the experience to be a leader on missions. While the first mission in the episode goes well enough for Ezra to take on the next one, we do see that he is struggling a bit with his emotions. He has secretly kept the sith holocron from the finale and has been learning some new tricks and information about the force that he hasn't told anyone about. He is more angry and has a constant seeking of more power, something that he has had before but seem to be amplified now that he has spent so much time with the holocron.
Kanan has spent a lot of time alone and away from the group. This has affected the group and Ezra in a not so positive matter as he still has fear in himself from his encounter from the finale. Ezra leads them to the next mission and continues to fumble as he disobeys orders thinking he can accomplish more than what was needed. Ultimately in the end they do get the ships they need but it did come at the cost of recklessness from Ezra. He realizes that he was wrong to think the way he did and Kanan learns to accept his past failure and become stronger in the force.
Overall I think this was a solid beginning to a new season and really explore Kanan and Ezra in a way that I thickens them as character. They now have struggles to move on from that can comeback to haunt them in the future but also strength themselves. The one aspect I am still no sure about is the addition of Thrawn in the series. I think its a great character to bring into the show but I don't think they are going to use him to his full advantage. Especially if he is only the villain of this season and doesn't return in the future.
