How much awesomeness can an episode of The Book of Boba Fett be without Boba himself being in it? The answer is....very awesome indeed! I think by now we're way past that 'Boba is not even in his own series' joke and we're just enjoying the ride. Episode 6 dived further into Grogu's training with Luke, possibly on Ach-To (judging from the greenery), and we also got to see Ahsoka exchanging quips with Luke.
Luke Skywalker is all deepfake this time around. I read somewhere that Lucasfilm hired some dude who had flawlessly deepfaked a much more believable Luke's face onto that abysmal CGIed Luke on that Mandalorian Season 2 finale.
Just like his father she said. I sincerely hope that Ahsoka is referring to young Skywalker's determination to train his padawan rather than his occasional inclination to go down the dark path.
Din Djarin didn't get to see Grogu but he did slip his Beskar gift to Ahsoka who then passed it on to Luke Skywalker who eventually used the gift (which turned out to be a Beskar chainmail) and Yoda's lightsaber to blackmail Grogu. This is something that worries me a lot because as Obi Wan had promptly said, only a Sith deals with absolutes. I can understand the direction that Disney is taking because we all know that Luke will eventually end up as that failed hermit so his misdirection, even at this point of time aka 5 years after ROTJ, is crucial to the story arc we've seen in The Last Jedi.
Even if you're all stressed up with the way Luke behaves, you'd probably be mesmerized with Cad Bane's first live action appearance. Some overly critical fans cried foul because he looked a tad different that his animated counterpart simply by the position of his mouth. I say we're lucky to get to see him in his live action form.
