User blog:Kltt05/Season 1 Episode 6 Downfall of A Droid Episode Review!

Hello! I am here this week to review Downfall of a Droid! This starts off the two parter arc of the R2-D2 lost arc which is pretty entertaining.

I really like this episode. It shows the bond between Anakin Skywalker and R2-D2.

This episode featured the Battle of Bothawui which was basically a win for the Republic in 10 minutes. I mean in the newsreel said that the Republic was getting pumled by General Grievous. Sure, I understand that the Republic had the AT-TE ambush on the asteriod, but still, the Republic should of lost more reasources than just two fighters and one crusier getting damged!

Also, this episode really does show Anakin's bond to things. Padme for example, if he had to choose between saving Padme or a random civilian when both were about to fall to their doom and he could only choose one. He would choose Padme and then go after the civilan. Same with R2. He's been with R2 for years and has created a strong bond with him.

Another thing about the Jedi, unlike Anakin, Obi-Wan orders Anakin to not search for R2 and get a new Astromech droid. Anakin then states that he didn't wipe out his memory banks. Obi changes his mind and tells Anakin to continue searching and find him before the CIS does and finds out their operations. If Anakin DID wipe out R2's memory Obi-Wan would simply not care, maybe.

The action at the end got my attention. It was duller than the first battle at the begining of this episode, but a lone Starfighter verses two Frigates and squadrons of Vulture Droids. That grabs my attention more for some reason.

One thing I would like to talk about is Gha Nachkt. He's a junker. A rude, uneducated, slime ball. And I LOVE him for SOME REASON. I have NO earthly idea why! That's just something I wanted to mentioned

The anatgonists are: Gha Nachkt and General Grievous.

I give this episode a 8/10. What do you give this episode? Comment below and let me know! I will see you all next week! Bye!
