Probably better suited for Ketsubine.

 

Nvm

 

Sabine is Asian Never knew that

 

Asian as in, from Asia ... Earth?

 

I still believe Bo-Katan is Sabine's mother. Why else would she be back for 3 episodes.

 

Because Mandalorians are going to be featured in the second half of season three? Sabine needs to get Mandalorian support for the Rebellion. Fenn probably knows Bo, or at least suggests her as a possible ally to help overthrow the viceroy of Mandalore.

What's to say Sabine doesn't gather forces and try to become Mand'alor? I'd she has enough backing, if she can rally houses and clans to her cause, it could very well happen. And you don't have to be related to the royal family to become Mand'alor. That's a title that can go to anyone able to overthrow the previous leader of their government.

 

Bo Katan = House Kryze

Sabine Wren = House Vizsla

And there's this, from a few months ago:

So my guess is that Sabine is Rook Kast (and some guy from Clan Wren)'s daughter

Might as well throw this in too, definitely a connection in helmet design

well she could just have one asian parent.

 

But she looks a lot like Rook Kast from the Son of Dathomir comics. Who's also Asian.

 

yeah like as of know I dont really have any concrete theories, I was just saying that her mom could be Bo Katan if her dad was asian

 

Maybe. But Filoni already mentioned way back in a season one article that Sabine wasn't related to Satine or Bo.

 

true but Filoni is so not trust worthy haha, I doubt its Bo though

 

Okay, I don't get this. Asian??? There IS NOT any 'Asian' in the GFFA where people are blue or red or green or brown, scaled, feathered, warty and antennaed.

Off hand, I don't think Sabine looks like any particular other character in TCW, and even if they have decided now that she is not related to any other character we've seen, that does not mean they (the writers) won't change their minds later.

 

There's white, Asian and black people in the Star Wars Universe. Just because it's based in space doesn't mean it doesn't have those races of people.

 

Yes there is, Finn and Lando and Mace are black, Luke and Han are white, Sabine and I think Commander Sato are both Asian, as well as Donnie Yens character in Rogue one. You cant say there are not different races

 

Finn and Lando and Sabine and Luke and Qui-Gon and Kanan and Obi-Wan are all the same species (as far as we know). In the GFFA with people with horns of every configuration, tails, eight limbs, or prehensile feet, the species part is most noticeable. And Twi'leks come in every shade; I have not heard any mention of different 'races' of them at all. Togruta come in multiple shades as well; I seriously doubt that the specific physical attributes are considered a 'race'. Clan, yes ..... then you're just talking about simple genetics where family members share similar hair colors, skin tones, ear shapes, whatever. Ethnicity, certainly ... especially when you're talking about culture and people from the same planet. But no 'race'.

Nope, no such animal as 'race' in the GFFA.

Yes, they are all human. I never said they weren't. But they have different skin colors. Luke and Han are white males. Finn and Mace are black. Sabine and Commander Sato are asian. Different people exist in the Star Wars universe. Humans with different colored skin. I wasn't talking about Twi'leks or Togruta's. I was talking about humans. More specifically, Sabine.

Okay race was the wrong word. My bad. I apologize. But just because it's space and Sci -Fi doesn't mean that people who are black, white etc don't exist as such.

 

Even by your definition of "Space-Asian", I'm not sure that Sabine is Asian. Just because her cheeks are positioned higher and her eyes arean't perfectly round, one could say she might be "Space-Eastern European".

In fact, now that I think of it, Sabine looks a lot like this former model from Slovenia. They're so alike they could be sisters

 

Nope... Not really...
This maybe >

 

Honestly I think you are overreacting to a simple description. As for animal called race, I have no idea where you pulled that from. On the another note, I'm pretty sure its canon that Sabine is asian....so.....yeah......

 

No, you are quite wrong on that. There is no 'race' in the GFFA. I have never seen any reference to it in the films or TV, or from any of the directors/writers/producers. Unless they are referring to different species as 'races'. But in that case, Sabine, Kanan, Luke, Leia, Anakin, Obi-Wan, Mace, Qui-Gon, Ezra, Palpatine, the Humans on Naboo and a lot of other Humans are all the same 'race'.
