Despite what some might have you believe, Ahsoka is the furthest thing from a standalone project. The show’s two-episode premiere works hard to (re)introduce the title hero, her enemies, and her allies to casual audiences. But with 15 (!) years of ground to cover, some things inevitably fall through the cracks. That’s especially apparent with key characters from Star Wars: Rebels, like Sabine Wren (who’s apparently Ahsoka’s padawan now?) and New Republic general Hera Syndulla. But things get even more complicated with the mention of Ezra Bridger, a key figure in the Galactic Rebellion who’s missing in action by the time Ahsoka begins.
