It also features long arcs, which add to the cinematic feel of this series. This season overall has two of the best arcs thus far IMO (Umbara and the Kidnapping) and is pretty consistent in quality. Apart from one disappointing episode (which in itself is still much more bearable than the horrid "Corruption" episode from S3 mind you) the season delivers the goods and is on par with Season 2.
The arcs:
- The battle of Mon Cala. I liked how the battle was much more downbeat than earlier invasion arcs (where it was Republic beats space blockade, Republic wins every ground battle, Republic captures CIS leader). You see the Republic and the Mon Calamari getting hammered, which is a refreshing change. The focus on the growth of the new Mon Cala king, who has to become the leader the Mon Cala need, may not be to everyone's taste but I find that it doesn't detract from the overall arc. The setting of an underwater battle allows for an interesting locale and an interesting battle.
- A single episode, which are almost being extinct in the Clone Wars, follows the bumbling of everyone's favourite Gungan, Jar Jar Binks. It was nice to see Otah Gunga and the major improvements in visuals in this episode, as those were the highlights of the episode. The episode takes a long time with the switch from Jar Jar to Gungan leader (as an imposter, since the real one is injured) and consequently, the second half of the episode feels so rushed it is robbed of every tension and build up it could have had.
- Next up is a arc called Droid Adventures, concentrating on, who else, C-3PO and R2D2. They are quite silly and light hearted and thus aimed towards the younger audience of this show. The second episode in this arc is made up of several short adventures in several places, which is a great idea as it shows some planets/cultures which wouldn't warrant a full episode highlight. All in all, the episodes are entertaining but nothing more.
- One of the highlights in this season must be the Umbara arc, where Rex, Fives and the rest of the 501st are placed under the command of Jedi General Krell, who replaces Anakin Skywalker who is summoned to Coruscant at the behest of Palpatine. Krell sends the clones on head on assaults, which demoralizes the clones (who see them as suicide attacks) and makes them openly question him.. in general, the arc focusses on what makes a good soldier and does a mighty fine job at exploring that topic.
- Next up, the slavers arc. Interesting story and locations, but it feels at times that the writers didn't know how to portray Anakin in this one (as he was a slave, as seen in the Phantom Menace). You often expect a more aggressive stance from someone who is born into slavery. Luckily the episodes also spend time with Obi-Wan, who is forced to become a slave and who can never help anyone, as they will be hurt by the slavers anyway. It is interesting to see how Obi-Wan deals with this dillemma which hasn't been featured before.
It is a good arc but you can never escape the feeling that it could have been better.
- On to the next arc, the kidnapping of Palpatine. Obi-Wan, Yoda and Mace have learned of a kidnapping plot of Palpatine by the Separatists. They set up a plan, where they fake Obi's death so he can become a bounty hunter and then infiltrate the gang of perpetrators. The major highlight in this is how Anakin deals with the situation. He is shown as wreckless and infuriated towards anyone who can help him catch the assassin (the identity of which has been assumed by Obi himself). After learning the truth we can see the first cracks in the relationship between Anakin and Obi-Wan/the council (which is fully exploited in Revenge of the Sith by Palpatine, adding an extra dimension to that film). The last episode also features a very interesting ending, which again adds to what we see in Revenge of the Sith (Filona elaborates on this in the corresponding documentary).
- Two episodes in which Asajj gets the spotlight. The episodes follow her story after she has failed to defeat Count Dooku with the use of Savage Oppress (who will return in the next arc). I won't spoiler to much, short of saying that Asajj is further developed from a one-dimensional villain towards a more fully developed character and, a series first, we actually see Grievous kick some ass.
- Ah yes, the last episodes, featuring the controversial return of Darth Maul. But first, we start with Savage Oppress, who after the ending of the Nightsister arc from S3, is searching for Darth Maul and finds him on a junk planet, where he has gone utterly insane from being isolated, with his hatred for Obi-Wan his sole motivation to keep going. This is an interesting insight in what the Dark Side entails besides cool Force Powers and a love for the colours black and red. The very last episode sees them confronting Obi-Wan, who gets help from the unlikeliest of persons..
The animation work has seen a major leap once again. You will see a lot of particles, much improved character animation (they have reworked several faces, adding extra emotions to them), more characters on show in every episode (in battle, but also in settlements/places), great lighting as usual..
The picture quality of the blu-rays is great, like we are used to from this series. The caveat of this series in terms of picture quality has always been the banding issues (where colours don't smoothly transition, creating odd patches of colour), which are lower in occurrences than previous seasons (or at least less obvious) :p.
The audio quality is the best from the entire series, in no small part to the lossless track (Season 3 and Season 4 are the only blu-rays in the series so far to be blessed with an DTS-HD MA track). It is more immersive than previous series (better use of surround speakers) and it also had more outstanding moments in terms of AQ (which is of course also heavily reliant on the episode in question).
The bonus features are expansive as usual.
- For the major arcs (Mon Cala, Umbara, Slavers, Kidnapping and Darth Maul Returns) a discussion has been recorded with those involved in it's production. Whilst they aren't perfect (they go off in non-Star Wars things from time to time and gloss over several things), they do add a lot of insight in the things they do discuss. Filoni especially adds some interesting thoughts on several topics, such as explaining how the corporations we see plotting in Attack of the Clones aren't affiliated with the CIS, they just sell to both sides.
- The archives are as expansive as usual, with more deleted/extended scenes than previous seasons. They are also structured per arc instead of per episode, which makes the archives a bit faster to use.
Instead of the progression of a single shot/short scene like in previous seasons we are treated to a much longer sequence, which is played in both it's roughest animatic as well as the end product. I personally found the previous set up better, as it showed multiple stages and you are now more likely to simply watch the end product than constantly switch between them.
And thus I come to the conclusion. The season is as strong as S2, has more mature storytelling and is often aimed at older Star Wars fans instead of the actual demographic for which it is produced (which is a bit odd in itself but I'm not complaining ;)). Visuals are improved once more, the issue of banding is less pronounced, the audio presentation sounds improved IMO and the documentaries per arc give more insightful information for each arc in comparison to the documentaries on S2 and S3 (not only production related info, but also information which relates more to the overall Star Wars universe.
In short, very recommended.
Key things you learn and see: First, Anakin’s Padawan - Ahsoka Tano. She is introduced in the TCW TV movie that kicks off the series. You see that Anakin’s disenchantment with the Jedi didn’t happen overnight - and was justifiable from a certain point of view. The Jedi Council’s own inner conflict with their effectiveness is explored. The Clones - Rex, Coty and dozens of others are personalized and the depth of the devotion between the Clones and their Jedi Generals is defined. After watching TCW TV series, you’ll find watching the scenes in ROTS where Order 66 is executed are beyond gut wrenching to watch. The actual battles the Clones and their beloved Jedi Generals fought together, the bonds they forged and trust they shared will reveal the unique tragedy and overall gravity of each one of those scenes. You get to know more of the Jedi and how they operate. Anikan and Padme’s relationship gets the attention it needed in the films to be appreciated. The Emperor’s manipulations, Count Dooku, and General Grievous are covered in depth. The Galaxy’s citizens and battles for their planets are necessary viewing to understand the depth of the Empire’s evil. Many other characters upon which books and comics have been based, such as Tarkin, are introduced. Many hints about what is to come in the films are integrated into all of these characters’ interactions.
Yes, it’s CG animation, which I learned means everything about the battle scenes and non-human movement is beyond stellar. The first episode or two you notice the legs when walking/running and mouths when speaking because they aren’t perfect. But then it becomes normal and you literally forget you’re even watching CG - it doesn’t take away from the quality or enjoyment at all.

めっちゃ面白い!
Non preoccupatevi, tra le varie opzioni linguistiche C'E' ANCHE L'TALIANO, parlato, nei sottotitoli e anche nei menu. Solo la copertina ed il libretto sono in francese, per cui considerando che mi è costato meno dell'edizione italiana sono assolutamente soddisfatto.
Per quanto riguarda la stagione in se è attraente come sempre, con nuovi personaggi molto interessanti, consigliato a tutti i fans di Star Wars (aspettando episodio 7......).
Adesso non resta che attendere la stagione 5 (mi pare che l'edizione francese esca in questo periodo), sperando che la descrizione delle lingue supportate sia più accurata.
