    I had assumed Mandalorians as a whole have been progressing/regressing over the course of the three shows (and from Tarre Vizsla's time as well). Which is kinda depressing to think on how quickly they've gone from attempting pacifism to hard core "my weapon is my religion" radicalism.

    Or it could be different clans or whatever. Hopefully the show delves into it a bit more.

    It's fine, I just want to make it clear that I do not endorse Screenrant (or any clickbait bullshit) in any way.

    I only posted those excerpts for context.

    I wish the Mask of Mandalore was reintroduced into the mythos. It predates the Darksaber by thousands of years and could be explained as the Darksaber becoming a replacement symbol for the clans after the mask was lost for so long.




    It's my headcanon that Satine's pacifist movement might have been some kind of Republic or Jedi Order-inspired/helped Vichy government because the Republic never was comfortable with having Mandalorians anywhere close.

    She might've been believing in acting in the best interest of her people, but it was obvious that her actions did more harm than good. Also, the lavish aristocratic lifestyle... It was so un-Mandalorian.

    Haha that's so rad, especially factoring in the 'Yizmo' name (that I oddly don't see used anywhere else except here?).

    I'm just gonna mirror the picture...

    I only posted “Yizmo” on one other site, but it didn’t catch on. Happy to see being used by some here though.

    Well,
    seems like a complete and total waste of Ming-Na Wen. One and done just like that.

    My first real legitimate problem with this show.

    TBH it doesn't look as if she was to stay this way...

    I mean to stay dead.

    I've realised that with the 2nd season in the making... We won't see the plots resolved in the 1st one. It's going to be like with Rebels - planting seeds through the most of the first season.

    I took it more that
    she's still dead, and whoever showed up is checking for proof that the Mando was there, but in a universe like this, I wouldn't roll out her character returning. Still, I don't have problems with having popular actors playing a small but important part. I had no sympathy for her character, though that also means the actress did a great job portraying that. If she comes back or not, I'd be happy either way.
