Star Wars: Clone Wars Season 7 Episode 9 - 5 Ups & 1 Down From "Old Friends, Not Forgotten"
1. Up - The Mandalorians
The Mandalorians have gained a lot of popularity in the past year, thanks to the first Disney+ original series, The Mandalorian.
The warriors of Mandalore barely did anything in the original Star Wars trilogy, with Boba Fett's underuse a rare common complaint about the films. The prequel trilogy gave us a battle between the Mandalorian Jango Fett and Obi-Wan, but Jango doesn't last too much longer, getting his head chopped off by Mace Windu in his next scene.
Earlier seasons of Clone Wars showed us just how badass these Mandalorians can be, and Bo-Katan and her men help reinforce the idea that these soldiers could have taken on the Jedi. We get to see the special features of their armor, like force field shields and flamethrowers, and watch Mandalorian vs. Mandalorian as Bo-Katan's troops reclaim the city.
Plus, the designs of the Maul Mandalorian armor are stunning.
