The final shot of Star Wars The Clone Wars: A piece of art
A helmet, the symbol of the dedication and honor of the clones, cracked, with paint marks, paint marks based on those of the face of a young woman who had all their loyalty and trust, Ahsoka Tano, that helmet, reflects what once was one of the kindest persons in the galaxy, their general, their friend, Anakin Skywalker.
The series started with the clones, not machines, more than soldiers, humans. A girl who had a lot to learn, stubborn, arrogant, kind and brave, an apprentice. And a young man called hero, a knight predestined to greatness.
The series ended, with the clones being controlled against their will, acting like machines, forced to kill those who once were their superiors, allies and friends. The girl has grown, becoming a powerful young woman willing to always do the right thing, the right way. And the kind man who once fought by their side for the greater good, leaving them, and all his past behind.
What we are seeing, its the Clone Wars, at its end.
Warning Star Wars Rebels Finale Spoilers Ahead
So I honestly don't know how to put a cut here so just as a warning this will contain spoilers for the SWR finale and possibly (if you haven't yet seen it) TLJ spoilers. This post won't be too long though and should be short so just skip this post. I feel like those space whales were rather deus ex machina. Honestly they just felt kind of thrown in there like I had completely forgotten that they even existed. Asides from that, I'm not all to sure when the finale episode takes place in the timeline when compared to Rouge One but it feels like it was a bit too big of a victory for how reluctant to fight the rebels were in Rouge One if Ezra got rid of the entire seventh fleet in one fell swoop. Like sure it was just one planet they liberated but they took out an entire fleet doing it. Asides from that, it was stated that Thrawn survives Rebels. I'm not entirely sure if that's true now. I can see Ezra surviving for a bit because of what we saw in TLJ from Leia but Thrawn? In hyperspace? With open holes in the Star Destroyer? Thrawn is not General Grievous who could survive just being in open space (probably due to Grievous being a cyborg). So??? I'm not sure if I'm the only one feeling kind of confused about this episode.
Luke, after making grogu relive the most traumatic event in his life: … okay but seriously WHY DID HE TALK LIKE THAT?

In the end, Ben solo Died doing what his Grandfather was never able to
He used the Force to save someone he loved from dying
I completely agree, this is the best happily ever after for them. Like “get married, have kids” doesn’t have to be everyone’s happy ending always, but I do think it would’ve been the best fit for these particular characters (and it’s certainly a darn sight better than Ben winding up dead).
After all, as a lot of people have been saying, Rey has always been looking for a family, and as great as her friend group is, I still think she would have loved this life. It’s the opportunity both characters need to do better with their own family than what they had in the past (no offense to Han and Leia’s parenting, but just things obviously went awry). Also this would be a perfect setup for future movies if they wanted them, with another next generation.
Anyways, mini-rant aside, this is simply gorgeous art; I love the coloring and the depth of it. And, of course, it fills the heart with much-needed warmth.
This is how it should have ended

Happy Star Wars Day! I’ve decided to make my Skywalker comic into one easily rebloggable post.
