  • The new animation series “Star Wars: The Bad Batch“goes directly to” The Clone Wars “and is supposed to build the bridge to” Star Wars Rebels “.
  • Clone unit 99 was in “Star Wars: The Clone Wars” eingeführt. However, they are not mentioned in “Rebels”. Do the heroes die in the end?
  • In episode 1 of “The Bad Batch” characters have already appeared who are in “Star Wars Rebels“Still important: Caleb Dume and Saw Gerrera.

Lots of fans see “Star Wars: The Bad Batch“at Disney+ as a continuation of the animation series “Star Wars: The Clone Wars“, after all, the new series ties in directly to the events and also offers strong stylistic similarities. However, it is less of a” The Clone Wars “sequel than you think!

“The Bad Batch” should rather be a bridge between “The Clone Wars” and “Star Wars Rebels“act. The period between Order 66 and the start of the rebellion was in “Star Wars”-Universum so far only little lit.

That “Star Wars: The Bad Batch” also refers to “Star Wars Rebels” became clear in episode 1, after all three characters appeared who are important in “Star Wars Rebels”: Saw Gerrera, Moff Tarkin and a young Caleb Dume, who bears the name Kanan Jarrus in “Rebels”.

Since the clone unit 99 is not mentioned in “Star Wars Rebels”, a tragic fate can be foretold. Especially since Captain Rex appears in “Rebels” and therefore would surely have called the clone unit 99 to help, should it still exist.

Captain Rex knows about the survival of clone unit 99 in “Star Wars Rebels”

The fact that Rex also appears in “Star Wars: The Bad Batch” is confirmed by a trailer in which clone warriors can be seen. Thus, Rex and clone unit 99 are definitely in contact with each other after Order 66 and know that the inhibitor chips had no effect on them.

Also, that Crosshair in “Star Wars Rebels” does not hunt the rebels on Tarkin’s orders, suggests that he is either dead or has reunited with his clone brothers. After all, in Star Wars Rebels, Tarkin gives anything to crush the rebellion and would let a deadly soldier like Crosshair off the leash.

So it looks bad for the clone unit 99. But we shouldn’t copy it, because – Warning, spoilers for “Star Wars Rebels”! – With “Star Wars Rebels” many fans assumed that Ezra and Kanan would die, since the two Jedi do not play a role in the original trilogy. While Kanan actually dies, another solution is found for Ezra.

So we can hope that clone unit 99 might go underground or go missing, but that it doesn’t necessarily die. After all, there could easily be ten seasons of “Star Wars: The Bad Batch”, even if we would assume a lower number.
