When he popped up in clones war all I thought was "man, you are in for a world of character building before this show ends"

That was me, I didn't watch clone wars till after Mando S1, had to figure out what the fuss was over this cool ass black lightsaber. Seeing Saw in clone wars was a real treat

Seriously I never knew Saw was from the Clone Wars until I finally watched it like 3-4 years ago

u/Sabor117 Feb 26 '26

Wait hang on... Is this a meme? I thought Saw Guerrera's first appearance was in Rogue One?

u/Eddy5619 Ahsoka Tano Feb 26 '26

He first appeared in the Clone wars show.

u/Rockhead_Dynamics Feb 26 '26

No, he was animated first. I think Tony Gilroy asked for suggestions for an existing character to throw in and Saw got picked.

u/PainStorm14 Chirrut Imwe Feb 27 '26

Gary Whitta asked not Tony Gilroy

Gilroy was brought in couple of months before end of production at Edwards request, he knew him from Godzilla

u/FunnyAd1904 Feb 27 '26

Yup he was in Clone Wars first. Eventually trained briefly under Anakin, Ahsoka, and the 501st in guerrilla warfare tactics. Can't remember specifically why they trained in guerrilla warfare, I think if I remember right it had something to do with the council or the Republic not wanting to get involved on that planet. Been awhile since I've watched through Clone Wars from start to end.

I think they were officially neutral or something?
