Star Wars Rebels

Season 2

Season 2 is more consistent than season 1 overall, but maybe doesn't quite reach the highs that one did. At least, not until the end with the finale being something very special. The new Inquisitors are a mixed bunch with the Seventh Sister being a far more effective villain than the Grand Inquisitor was, but the others are instantly forgettable and uninteresting.

This season takes us away from Lothal as the crew join up with a Rebel cell and begin working missions for them. It makes for a nice change and feels like the show is moving forward. The biggest boon is the inclusion of Ahsoka and Rex who for fans of The Clone Wars are a real joy to see on screen. We also get some appearances from Darth Vader and they are quite fantastic - maybe it's down to having James Earl Jones back to provide the voice, but he's a really strong presence.

Lastly, I'm really glad that Sabine and Hera are given more to do here and we get to know their characters much better.
