Honestly my ratings for episodes would likely be something like...
Gone with a Trace: 5/10 Deal or no Deal: 6/10 Dangerous Debt: 4/10 Together Again: 6/10
Total 21/40.... yeah this arc is a dead 5 for me and it’s not getting extra points from enjoyability like Bad Batch got... maybe I should of added more options to the poll but whatever let it burn.

I liked the visuals a lot in episode 2, Coruscant skyline and Kessel. I think that was the best episode of the show.
Last episode was only kind of cool cause of Maul and Ahsoka finally did something I suppose

It's so trash worst arc of the show for me. I think it was a wasted opportunity they could've done something better with Ahsoka. Or spend that time showing what happened to Maul. Last we saw him in the show, he was captured by Palpatine. I have no idea what happened next because of how confusing his story arc is
Best parts were definitely the Anakin scene and seeing Kessel and whatnot. So pretty much all the background stuff not related to Ahsoka and the sisters. Also on another note the Pykes seem super chill I would be down to snort(?) some spice with them. MF'ers do so much spice they got stains on their chin lmao...

My ratings for this arc...
Gone With a Trace: 5/10 Deal No Deal: 7/10 Dangerous Debt: 6/10 Together Again: 7/10
I don't want my high expectations for this final season to make me hate excessively on this arc. However, there's no denying this story felt unnecessary and didn't continue Ahsoka's post-Jedi Order journey the way we thought. There were some cool background bits, such as seeing Kessel, the ROTJ inspired scene between Anakin and Ahsoka, and the Nite Owls. Yet those parts don't boost the overall enjoyment of this arc for me.
Only the D-squad arc scores lower for me among 4 part arcs.

When the show started, the team seemed to know that you only give long arcs to ideas that were worth it. If you look at our Rewatch Statistics, the lowest rated 3-parter from the first four seasons is the Malevolence arc, and I don’t think anyone would say that arc is bad.
But once we hit Season 5, four parts arcs were dished out of pretty much any idea. We realized pretty quick that you shouldn’t spend why amount to a month of air time to an idea that’s just not great.
That’s why a bad episode like Evil Plans doesn’t get the same level of hate as the D-Squad arc. It didn’t waste so much time. It didn’t kill the momentum of a season like bad four part arcs did to Season 5 and Season 7.
I said I wouldn’t be so mad at the Bad Batch Arc if it ran in Season 7. But even if the Martez arc came then, it would still be quite bad. But putting it in the compressed final season is inexcusable.
Neither this nor the Bad Batch needed to be four part arcs. If you could tell the Citadel in 3, Dathomir in 3, Mandalore in 3, Zygerria in 3, Boba Fett in 3, then you didn’t need eighty eight minutes for this. It didn’t hall that it’s painfully obvious what should have been cut in both arcs.

I really feel like this is worse than D-Squad. At least that arc gave us Gregor. And the ending was pretty cool. There’s nothing in this arc I want to revisit.
