Darth Vader encounters Ahsoka for the first time in the Star Wars Rebels season 2 premiere.
Don’t worry, the core cast doesn’t get lost.
The Siege of Lothal handles Darth Vader masterfully.
Vader does appear to be holding back in this fight, despite the collateral damage.
Was he toying with the half-trained Jedi?
Vader has some stricter competition from another half-trained Jedi.
Ahsoka reacts violently to Vaders Force presence, but when asked whether she recognizes him, declines to answer.
I hope that we find out later in the show why she chose to lie to the crew.
Did she think it would protect them?
Could Anakins story negatively effect Ezras training?
Is Ahsoka not sure she can trust her own senses?
Or has Fulcrum, like Hera, simply become accustomed to secrecy?
(I think we havent seen the last of his concern about leaving his parents home.)
It makes sense, though, that the two would have very different opinions about the early Rebel Alliance.
The episodes always make time for conversations between the crew that make them seem more like a family.
The release date for season two has not yet been announced.
Freddie Prinze Jr. has said that season two will have almost twice as many episodes as the first season.
