    Cool chapter. Is it just me or does Asajj sound like the Goblin from "Legend?"

    Holy crap. That was an awesome episode!

    Cartoon Dooku is amazingly cool, and lightsaber battles are always welcome. I wasn't expecting Sidious to be in the series...shows what I know. :)

    It's too bad the series only has three episodes left before it vanishes until next year...

    OMG THAT WAS AWESOME!!! :D What an improvement from the last two chapters!! I was completely blown away when Palpidious came down those stairs after the fight! It's also kinda creepy how much Asajj sounds like Gollum..

    Loved it, except for that lame gift. I'm sorry, but I hate those damn curved hilts. I think Dooku just likes them because they help with arthritis.

    Oh man that was awesome!!! She's like "I am a Sith!" And the Dookster is like: "Whatever." I liked Sidious's voice. Maybe he shoulod brush those teeth tho...

    I eagerly await the jousting in the next installment!

    She sounds almost exactly like I imagined she would after seeing her in the comics. Also fun to see some much needed lightsaber action in this episode. I was starting to wonder when they'd get to it.

    Pretty sweet chapter- loved Dooku's force-levitation block, and nice to see Sidious as well.

    Great episode tonight!


    *Spoilers*












    Why did Darth Sidious send Asaii to kill Anakin? Is he just using her to test Skywalker's power?

    I liked it but this confirms my thoughts about assajj I had in the republic and jedi series, she can easily be defeated. Mace's quote said as much. I liked Dooku. I was wondering sidious would show. His voice was off completely. Again dooku sounded great.

    Have to see if Asajj combines the sabers as a double bladed staff as described in the OS databank entry.

    And Sidiuos sure got a whole lot uglier since AOTC :eek:

    :eek:

    AWESOME! :D

    Dooku rocks!

    The breif "areial" clash, coreography, and that final force pull, saber slash, push shows he's still the king of the duel.

    Except when Anakin comes looking for an inevitable rematch! :D

    It's probable that Sidious is allowing this assassination atempt to further evaluate Anakin. To see if he's strong enough to warrent more attention (Palps/Sid already knew this but this little test will just be more proof if he survives Ventress).

    What a fantastic episode! I hated Sideous voice though. Very annoying and inaccurate.

    >> Why did Darth Sideus send Asaii to kill Anakin? Is he just using her to test Skywalker's power?<<

    Possibly- he may also be pitting potential future Sith apprentcies against each other to see who is most able. If Asajj can beat sucha powerful Jedi as Anakin, then he'll know she has potential.

    Holy crap. [face_shocked]

    Now that episode rocked. (#7)


    It was just what I wanted to see- Dooku kicking Asajj's butt all over the place. She was way too cocky for me in her introduction (like, perfect character, I'm just saying that I wanted Dooku to teach her a lesson. :D ), and so I'm so glad Dooku put her in her place. :D

    Man, Dooku is the MAN when it comes to dueling. :D


    And next week- dueling speeder bikes! :D

    The force lighting was awesome. It seems as if Dooku is more powerful than he was is AOTC.

    I am so lookinng foward to the eventual confrontation betweenm Asajj and Anakin. I hope they show the full fight in towards the end of this run, and not make us wait till March! I can picture it now: Episode 10, Anakin an Asajj ignite their lightsabers, and start to duel. Fade to black. Arrg! I wonder what kind of cliffhanger they have is store for us?;-)

    I just watched it again. If you watch in the background while Dooku and Asajj are dueling you can see Sidious watching from above at the top of those steps. Also, was this episode longer than all the rest? I noticed that they didn't recap the previous chapter.

    Too bad, they don't start dueling til Chapter 18, possibly 17.

    EDIT: It's up on HS now

    Dooku put that little sith want to be in her place! That ruled! I loved how Dooku was just like "you're no sith!" and then zap! Asajj is getting fried with force lighting! I loved it!

    So... I've never wished a cartoon to put up "0wnzd!!!" before.

    But Dooku totally owned Ventress.
