But yeah, The Wrong Jedi arc is just PAIN PAIN PAIN everywhere but also pretty well done. It makes you fed up with the Jedi (the last straw, if you weren't already); it adds nuance to Anakin in ROTS, and I do think Ahsoka knows/has guessed about Padme. It's all there, but also THAT SHOT OF HER LEAVING THE JEDI TEMPLE OH MY HEART.
They really don't pull any punches once you hit season 5. It's got Saw & Steela right out of the gates, then Satine's story, then Ahsoka's. And I just watched the first four episodes of The Lost Missions yesterday and damn! So many clone feels. It's just a gauntlet. Which makes sense as they're leading up to ROTS, but it makes it harder to watch. But I'm so glad about how they treated Ahsoka's final moments, the art and music and everything, it really is so well done! And yeah, THAT FINAL SHOT. MAN!!!

Also that's one of the things I love about TCW the most, the development of Anakin's character. I think The Clone Wars is the story everyone was expecting from the prequels.

It's also really fucked up how the show used a Muslim-coded character for a terrorism plot out of the blue as well.

YES, omg yes. Unfortunately, TCW has a bit of a recurring issue with how it codes characters (usually alien races).
