I've enjoyed the series and the finale was a good wrap up to season 2. The whole series has had great production values and it looks and feels like "Star Wars" should.

Luke appearing and wrecking shite was great, and I love the "motley crew" with Mando, Boba Fett and the "take back Mandalore group"

Of course there are nitpicks - the "troopers can't shoot straight" has gotten a little overboard, but that's always been part of Star Wars.

The one thing that gives me pause going forward is that I hope they don't make too much of a big deal of the "have to defeat the current owner" of the dark blade angle. If it's a political thing - winning the blade by combat would attract followers to her cause - that's one thing, but if it's some type of enchantment thing, I don't think that would be a great storyline. It could bog down into minutiae of what it means to defeat someone. Heck, Mando didn't kill or mortally wound Gideon to win it. Could she beat Mando at checkers or tic tac toe or something?

Its just a lightsaber. There is no enchantment. Just like Moff Gideon said, its all about the story, winning it in combat is a physical symbol of who the leader is.
