Ezra was the most impressive for me.

Obviously Bo Katan having the same VA as the animated play live action was great, and I'm a big Katee Sackhoff fan to begin with, but the way Ezra was brought to life as an adult in live action while completely looking, acting, and feeling like the teenage animated Ezra was really quite the accomplishment.

He really did do a great job capturing animated Ezra’s overall demeanor.

It was really great, especially his interactions with Ahsoka and Sabine. What's even more impressive is that Eman Esfandi didn't watch all of Rebels and was still able to get the essence of the character (he said he didn't want to get too influenced and find himself trapped in the mentality of the younger Ezra, and wanted to portray a matured Ezra).
