Warning! This article contains spoilers for Ahsoka episode 7.

Summary

Ahsoka episode 7 presents a touching reunion among Ahsoka, Ezra, and Sabine, marking a milestone as the live-action Star Wars show with the highest number of Jedi collaborations.

Scheduled for a 2024 debut, The Acolyte TV series will introduce numerous fresh Jedi characters from the High Republic Era, with the potential to surpass Ahsoka's record for Jedi team-ups.

Ahsoka's three Jedi team-up is a thrilling and satisfying moment, while The Acolyte promises an exciting prospect of featuring numerous Jedi in their prime.

Ahsoka episode 7 "Part Seven: Dreams and Madness" has set a special record for Star Wars live-action TV shows, but an upcoming series in 2024 is poised to surpass it by a significant margin. The tension is rising as Ahsoka approaches its season finale: Thrawn and the Nightsisters are making their final preparations to escape Peridea, while Sabine Wren and Ezra Bridger are cherishing their reunion. However, Sabine has been concealing the uncertainty of their journey back home, and the presence of Dark Jedi apprentice Shin Hati and Thrawn's Imperial forces makes their situation even more challenging. Sabine and Ezra are in desperate need of assistance.

Ahsoka Tano arrives in Peridea in Ahsoka episode 7, with the assistance of the purrgil, the hyperspace-traversing star whales in the Star Wars universe. The reunion of Ahsoka, Ezra, and Sabine holds significance on multiple levels. Firstly, it is an emotional moment, as Ahsoka had pledged to find Ezra after he saved her in the World Between Worlds during the finale of Star Wars Rebels season 4. Now, she is finally able to fulfill that promise. Furthermore, this momentous occasion of Ahsoka, Ezra, and Sabine appearing together on screen establishes a significant milestone for Disney+'s live-action Star Wars shows.

Ahsoka Episode 7 Has Live-Action Star Wars TV's Biggest Jedi Team-Up

When Ahsoka finally discovers Sabine and Ezra, they find themselves in a life-or-death struggle against Shin and the remaining Night Troopers commanded by Thrawn. This united front of three warriors holds immense significance. Officially considered a Jedi, Sabine has become a Jedi apprentice, wielding a lightsaber and demonstrating her Force sensitivity by sensing her master's presence while Ahsoka and Huyang concealed themselves amidst the debris field of Peridea. With this, the convergence of their paths marks the grandest alliance of Jedi ever witnessed in a Star Wars live-action series. Although audiences have previously witnessed the likes of Ahsoka and Luke, Ahsoka and Grogu, Grogu and Luke, as well as Grogu and Kelleran Beq joining forces, never before have more than two named Jedi fought side by side in the Star Wars live-action TV continuity – until now.

The Acolyte Will Easily Break Ahsoka's Jedi Record

Ahsoka's Jedi team-up is undeniably satisfying, but its record won't last long. The Acolyte is scheduled to premiere next year, offering a new era of excitement. Set in the High Republic Era, the show takes place roughly 100 years before the events of Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace. Within the past few years, Lucasfilm has unleashed a wave of interconnected novels and comic books that unfold during this era, introducing numerous new Jedi who confront formidable and terrifying foes. During the High Republic, the Jedi were at the pinnacle of their power, numbering in the tens of thousands and tirelessly aiding the Republic government in safeguarding and exploring the vast reaches of the galaxy.

The Acolyte TV series, being crucial to the Jedi, is expected to introduce numerous new Jedi characters, some of whom may be familiar to fans of the novels and comics. These characters will come together on the screen as they strive to uncover a lurking dark presence. The Acolyte marks the first live-action Star Wars project since Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith to showcase a significant number of Jedi in their prime simultaneously, creating an exhilarating prospect. However, at present, Ahsoka's three Jedi team-up holds the record for being both thrilling and satisfying. Catch the latest episodes of Ahsoka on Disney+ every Tuesday at 6pm PT/ 9pm ET.
