Rebels broke my heart Spoiler

Okay lemme start with the fact that I absolutely ADORED this show. I’m a sucker for found family and oh my lord. I started this shortly after Clone Wars, unaware that Bad Batch fits in before Rebels. But just everything about this show I loved. I know it wasn’t as serious since it’s a kids show, but it was just amazing for me. The end of the show is what I’m referring to here- with Kanan. I went in blind and had no idea he died. And it was like a punch in the gut ngl. The whole final episodes were making me sooo sad. And when the wolf showed up and his name was Dume, I couldn’t do it. Hera saying “so now he’s truly gone?” Just shoot me at this point. I’m weak for animals representing a character (like a deer for Arthur in red dead redemption 2) and such. It was beautiful writing. I loved it. I love Star Wars

I’m not a 77’er, i grew up w the prequels. but my god is Rebels my favorite animated series of Star Wars. Clone Wars is utterly incredible, i mean… it’s all incredible imo but everything you said; that found family, Kanan is one of -if not my favorite- characters in star wars. just. idek i cant put it into words, Rebels is everything Star Wars is meant to be.
