Caution: This article reveals spoilers for Episode 3 of Ahsoka. Finally, in Episode 3 of Ahsoka, she has been given a spacesuit that does justice to her character. In this episode, Ahsoka, who was once Anakin Skywalker's Padawan, willingly put herself in a dangerous situation by venturing into the Denab system on her ship. Upon arrival, she was faced with a hazardous reception, leading her to take drastic measures. Ahsoka fearlessly embarked on a spacewalk on the wing of her Jedi starfighter, skillfully using her lightsabers to distract Morgan and her mercenaries.
This daring feat is not unfamiliar to Ahsoka, being Anakin Skywalker's former Padawan. In Season 2, Episode 2 of Star Wars: The Clone Wars, she boldly went into space to battle droids. To do so, Ahsoka had to don a similar Enviro-suit to the one seen in Episode 3 of Ahsoka. However, the live-action adaptation of Star Wars has significantly enhanced this newer version.

Ahsoka's Space Suit Is Improved In Live-Action
Ahsoka's attire in Star Wars: The Clone Wars consisted of a regular Republic Enviro-suit, resembling Anakin's familiar outfit. However, the suit featured a distinct fishbowl design that was not suitable for Ahsoka's species. Admittedly, Ahsoka was young at the time, and her montrals and lekku, known as head-tails, were still petite. Yet, it became apparent that such a garment would not serve her well as she aged. Hence, Ahsoka now adorns a specially tailored suit to accommodate her unique needs.
The suit Ahsoka wears is equipped with a full-sized vizor instead of a standard helmet. This vizor serves the dual purpose of protecting her face and providing air. It is precisely attached to the new covering for her head tails, which is made from the same material as the rest of the suit. This innovative design offers her a significantly improved range of movement compared to the previous fishbowl helmet, which would have been obstructed by her lekku. Additionally, the suit's color perfectly matches Ahsoka’s head tails, creating a cohesive look and allowing her to execute one of the show’s most spectacular action sequences yet.
Ahsoka's "Skywalking" Scene Is The Coolest Live-Action Jedi Stunt Yet
Star Wars spacewalks, also known as "skywalks," are captivating to watch. They possess a cinematic quality due to their unique surroundings and serve as a last resort, defying all odds and adding a layer of depth and tension to the scenes. In Star Wars Rebels season 3, episode 21, "Zero Hour: Part 2," Ezra Bridger takes the lead as he guides a group of Mandalorians on a daring spacewalk mission to dismantle an Imperial Interdictor. While live-action Jedi have yet to display their expertise in spacewalking, that is about to change.
Ahsoka's stunning display of combat in episode 3 of Ahsoka showcases her "skywalking" abilities like never before. With her white lightsabers gleaming against the backdrop of space, she effortlessly deflects blasts from multiple enemies. In a jaw-dropping move, she flips over a mercenary ship and slices off one of its wings, causing it to be destroyed. This sequence highlights Ahsoka's unwavering bravery and demonstrates her exceptional fighting skills. Don't miss new episodes of Ahsoka, airing every Tuesday at 6pm PT / 9pm ET on Disney+.
