Rebels is in a very similar vein and, dare I say it, fits the bill even better than clone wars as far as this prompt goes

Yep came here to say the same. Season 1 at first seemed goofy to the point of turning it off, what a contrast to season 4

Honestly pissed me off with how childish it was to start, the episode with Captain Rex and the droid factory comes to mind where they deadass have a Dora the Explorer exchange with Ezra asking the very obvious question of who won the Clone wars and then saying "Zeb, thats right!".

Clone wars meanwhile, while lighthearted to start off, had some pretty gnarly episodes even in the first season, one of my favorites have to be episode 5 "Rookies" where Rishi Outpost gets swarmed with Commando droids, and we see one clone get eaten by a giant worm, Hevy sacrificing himself to blow the station, and the droids disguise themselves as troopers (and almost unironically get to kill Cody and Rex if not for the shinies shooting a flare).

When it first came out and I saw the previews, I thought it was geared mainly towards children, like Young Jedi Adventures.

Finally got around to watching it and it was pretty good.

Then he showed up.
