After almost 3 years of waiting disney plus prodigal son is back. season 3 of The Mandalorian, one of his best productions, is already there. After the intense end of the second part, which left Grogu in the hands of Luke Skywalker we the fans were looking forward to seeing how their adventure continues after they meet in The Book of Bobba Fett. The first chapter of this new episode begins with a lot of action and the return of old allies and enemies:

A very solid introduction

• season 3 of The Mandalorian begins with a Mandalorian initiation ceremony.
• After a few moments, the group is attacked by a huge beast that looks like a crocodile who took too many steroids.
• In this footage we see the warriors in action, each with their own weapons and styles.
• When the going gets tough, it shows Din, who arrives mounted on his new ship and annihilate the beast.

Immediately afterwards, the armorer sends him to Mandalore to bathe in the white waters and recover your position in the tribe. For that, Mando travels to Navarro in search of a new ally. to help him navigate the dangerous planet. We quickly discover that he wants to bring back IG-11, the robot bounty hunter who helped Din and Grogu in the past. Seeing that it needs a new memory circuit, they launch into space to search for the required part.

Towards the end of the episode, they face space pirates, whom they manage to outrun. After jumping into hyperspace, Din and Grogu arrive in Kalevala, where the Mandalorian Castle is located as well as Bo-Katan.. The young leader who sought to take over Mandalore is far less optimistic than we remember. Apparently, when his followers saw that he didn’t possess the Darksaber, they abandoned her and became mercenaries. After a tense conversation laden with veiled insults, Mando leaves, heads for the mines, despite the warnings.

An ever-expanding world

• One of the things that captivated me the most when I saw Mandalorian was the ability of its creators to take us from one planet to another.
• This creativity is crucial for the success of the series, because it is what motivates its atmosphere of mystery and adventure.
• Unlike the real world, the star wars universe is vast and there are still many places to discover.
• Thanks to the superb drawings and the spectacular staging, they bring life tona huge amount of alien creatures.

Since the first season, it has only gotten better, expanding the universe and giving Din Djarin new options for adventure. This time, we got to see a perfectly animated giant crocodile, which the Mandalorians were fighting against. In addition, we also appreciated the interesting design of some space piratesreminiscent of aliens from scenes like the one in the canteen.

Old friends and new enemies

In addition to its powerful designs, variety of planets, and beautiful ships, The Mandalorian also stands out for creating enduring characters. By this I mean the fact that, throughout its seasons, we see how Din reunites with old allies or confronts enemies he thought he had left behind..

• In this first episode we see the Mandalorians, whose leader entrusts Order the mission of restore your status as a member of the tribe.
• Additionally, Din and Grogu also end up with Greef Karga, who reached a very powerful position in Navarro.
• Finally, the return of Bo Katan it is very interesting because the tension that grew between her and Mando.
• That way those connections the audience has made with the characters aren’t lost and it seems like the world is alive and moving alongside the main plot.
