While there were some obvious plot holes, inconsistency with established canon and just head scratching “what were they thinking” moments, this episode was at the same time bad ass. Watching Obi-Wan and Vader going at it, and Obi-Wan abandoning his typical defensive form III light saber style for a much more aggressive style, I was wondering if maybe he wasn’t tapping into a bit of the dark side as he was showing power we haven’t witnessed from him before.
Whatever, I’ll take good with the bad and enjoy the entertainment. I do plan on binge watching it here in the next few days to see if I get any different kind of take/feelings about it.
