    Depens how isolated Ferrix is and how far away from the core worlds like Corucant it is. Tatooine seems to have had Jedi come to Tatooine before. So maybe they know what a Jedi is.

    9-year old Anakin was also living during a high point of official Jedi activity...

    Also, different communities across the galaxy have different experiences. Perhaps Ferrix and the surrounding systems Andor has visited just haven't had much interaction with Jedi, whereas Tatooine happens to have had an unusual (and memorable) number of Jedi visits in its past, thus leading to Anakin knowing a little about them?

    All kinds of ways that this makes sense.

    I would argue most everyone have heard of the Jedi. Their order was very powerful, but individually they are formidable also. Now, one may certainly assume they are more myth than real, but unless you are in some remote planet that has no trade or visitors, I think people will know of the Jedi.

    But it's fine, leaving that entire aspect of Star Wars out of this show. I'm very cool with it.

    Season 2 we might have Cassian Andor learn of the Jedi to connect with Rogue One.

    Found this post about the costumes on Reddit. It’s an interesting read. :)

    Wait is it established that no one on Ferrix knows about the jedi? I think we haven't heard a thing about them. But why would they mention jedi when they are all dead? It seems fully possible they know, but have no reason to care. Why would they? I think it requires no explanation whatsoever.

    Anakin did listen to deep space pilots and believe things they said. I think many would consider tales of jedi in action as nonsense as Han Solo did. Anakin took them seriously and they happened to be real.

    I wonder if Cassian Andor with his friends from Ferrix and Narkina 5 bring some warmness, loyalty and companionship to Luthen's rebellion that is now surely missing because of Luthen using methods of his enemy to be as effective as possible. This was interesting conflict in this show. It also shows in relationship of Vel and Cinta. Rebellion interferes with their relationship in major way. Sure Cassian still works in Luthen's way in Rogue One, but he hesitates to kill Galen.

    It is also central source of conflict in Star Wars due to attachment being route to the dark side. But it's also a problem why jedi failed. They lost connection to the galactic citizens and their problems. However they also became attached to the Republic system and overlooked the blatant corruption in it. I think there is still many great stories to be told from Star Wars and Andor was one of the best Star Wars stories ever. Love it!

    So there's obviously a bit of a checklist for season 2 in terms of leading into Rogue and ANH, some of which I'm ambivalent about, but there are other elements that intrigue me. I figure Bail Organa will factor in at some point next season, and I really hope we get a fuller dimension to him rather than just a secondary supporting role.

    Bittersweet. I wish another show in this time-period (Dark Times) was coming to fill the gap, IU and OOU. What I really want is twelve more episodes of Obi-Wan Kenobi that overlap with Andor. A live-action Journey To A New Hope initiative; and if it works, go past ANH.

    Indeed. Now that you mention it, what will be on that check list? Off the top of my head here's what I've got:

    The introduction of K2SO
    Cassian meeting Mon Mothma
    The Ghorman massacre
    Mon speaking out about the massacre and going on the run
    Bringing in Bail Organa,
    Explaining how Saw Gerrera was injured?
    Formation of the Rebel Alliance and Yavin IV
    Possibly a Krennic appearance?
    Cassian ending up on that planet he's on when we're first introduced to him in Rogue One
    Possibly a Princess Leia reference?
    More stuff with Luthen and his crew
    More Mon Mothma stuff

    This was good. I like how the incident on Ferix went down

    it wasn't a triumph it was a massacre. Which is pretty realistic. Survival and escape was the victory.

    Do you think that is REQUIRED in Cassian's story, though? It isn't hard to imagine, and Saw doesn't need to be focused on. I'd like to see how he really breaks from Mon Mothma's faction, but I also think that if he didn't appear again in Andor, that would be a perfectly acceptable story choice.

    I have a feeling they will show us what happens to Saw. Injured by an explosion during an escape, I bet.

    That would necessitate a timeline placement after his appearance in Rebels season four, of course. Which should be doable.
    But now that I think about it, maybe they won't go there.

    Not when he has already made an appearance, and is to have a big part moving forward. And this a direct prequel to Rogue One. Its why I also think Krennic will appear. Last few episodes of Andor Season 2, Saw's near death.

    I agree that Saw needs to be part of this, since Andor's mission in RO was directly connected to Saw. Not that he needs to be in focus in every episode. Besides Saw is great character to follow.

    I hope next season shows more rebel missions like Aldhani Heist. I really like this idea of team of rebels having a clear, but bold plan, then something unexpected happens and we see how they manage. Simple yet effective way to build war stories I really think we need more in Star Wars. Clear missions, well-planned yet still hazardous missions, with different locations, different teams, imperial enemies that are not all easy to defeat. Aldhani heist had one thing I didn't like though, it was a lack of aliens. I think Rebels should have some alien member or two like Chewie was there in OT. I think Pao for example would be great to see more in action and he was one of Cassian's own men in Rogue One. Or give us something like this alien duo from Rogue One concept art:

    Saw’s crew includes Moroff, who can play the role of the huge, lumbering alien on the team. He’s in the background in Andor and RO.
