The reviewer discusses their thoughts on Season 7 of Star Wars: The Clone Wars. While they initially hyped up the show, their enthusiasm waned over time, partly due to knowing the fate of certain characters. They praise the improved animation, particularly in the last four episodes, but criticize the season's predictability and the fact that the stakes are reduced due to prior knowledge of the events of Rebels.
The reviewer divides the season into three arcs, scoring them individually: the Bad Batch arc (6/10), the Martez sisters arc (3/10), and the final arc (8/10). They express disappointment with the middle arc, calling it boring and poorly paced, but praise the final arc for its exciting storyline and character development.
The reviewer concludes that the season would have been better if it had been released before Rebels, as it would have had more impact and been less predictable. They also mention that they would have preferred a shorter season with more focus on the final arc.
