But I’m a little obsessed with their cobbled-together old armor and ships… and maybe even more obsessed with all the great character designs! I’m still all about the colorful crowds in this series, and the pirates just added even more color. Kaz is such a good boy :3Īnd oh you guys I just adore Kragan and his crew! Yes, these guys are clearly dangerous, and I’d not want to run into any of ’em in dark alley (or a triple dark). Either way, I think he’s learned a couple things at least, since he somewhat sacrificed his lucky trophy to help someone who intended him harm (and probably still does). Kaz does not come off as a careless, inconsiderate “rich boy” by any means, but I wonder if he will come out of this mission with more than just a medal ceremony, but maybe an awareness of how much more he could do with what he’s been given. I chuckle at Neeku’s utter amazement over Kaz’s “many fabulous possessions”, but it also makes me sad thinking of how little Neeku has. But otherwise, I get the impression Kaz never even really considered how rare and precious the trophy would be to people beyond his circle. Kaz holds the priceless piece of aurodium so dearly because of how he got it and how much it means to him. I was originally planning on talking more about what we learned about Kaz from his lucky trophy. Though we have yet to see where Kaz’s journey in the Resistance takes him, a hero is indeed rising, and I’m excited to join him on that journey. In fact, I think all of us understand this in some way. And Kaz’s struggle to carve his own path may be something even more of us can understand. We may not have grown up on a hopeless desert world or lost our parents, but we feel these characters even still. We’ve all been held down at some point, we’ve all felt desolate and have been hurt by tragedy. It’s understandable why so many SW protagonists start off in less-than-ideal circumstances, because who doesn’t thrill at watching that hero rise up from the dust of their desolate and/or tragic upbringings? It’s so powerful! But I think we feel that powerful thrill, not because we directly relate to the heroes, necessarily, but because we relate to their struggles to rise up from something. Speaking of gold, I haven’t had a chance much to discuss how much I love the idea that Kaz is not a hero from humble beginnings. And it makes for some serious comedy gold! □ But hey, I’ve made no secret how much I appreciate a character I can soundly relate to, even when it’s because we share similar flaws and failures. In truth though, I probably would do just as well, especially when it comes to that mechanic stuff. His attempts to play it cool and get some First Order dirt had me dying laughing. And also maybe having a solid story ahead of time to back you up. Just keep a low profile and your eyes wide open, right? But I guess that depends on how you’re keeping that low profile. Isn’t he the best worst spy you ever saw? On paper, espionage sounds like an easy job. No, this probably won’t make the post very well-organized, but to stay silent on his many adorable qualities would be a severe crime. Now I must list more things I love about Kazuda Xiono. For those who’ve watched the series, you know what I mean… Kaz is our Zander, Neeku our Rowan, Tam our Kordi, Bucket our Roger, and they’re answering to a persnickety Wic Cooper kind of guy! It brought back so many memories and immediately got me smilin’! But though the scenario is familiar, the magnificent misadventure that unfolds is uniquely Resistance and so much fun! The setting and situation quickly brought a rush of Freemaker Adventures vibes. So, I knew Kaz’s cover was as part of Team Fireball, but I didn’t realize until this episode that Team Fireball is more of a mechanic’s shop. But don’t think for a second that it’s because I don’t have tons to talk about with Star Wars, because I always do, especially with a wonderfully delightful episode like The Triple Dark! Now, let the fangirling and story-analyzing commence!Ĭontains spoilers from Resistance episodes The Recruit and The Triple Dark. All right, friends, a new Resistance Report is in at last! Admittedly, guys, life continues to be busy and these Reports may permanently be coming in weeks late from here on.
