‘The Book of Boba Fett’ Season 1 Episode 6 Analysis: 12 Stingers and Tributes

The sixth episode of “The Book of Boba Fett” is the penultimate episode of the first season. Although it has not yet been determined whether the second season will be launched, with the appearance of “The Mandalorian”, the overall attention is getting more and more!

Episode 6 connects a lot of Clone Wars history and characters, so let’s take a look at how this story contributed to the development of the Star Wars universe through this analysis.

1.Law Enforcer Cobb Vanth

The first returning character in this episode is Law Enforcer Cobb Vanth, who once owned Boba Fett’s armor and related gear, but has since returned it to the original owner.

2.Cobb Vanth’s Law Enforcement Medal

Cobb Vanth’s Law Enforcement Medal was awarded by the New Republic, and bears a similar symbol for this, which also symbolizes that he is a law enforcement officer recognized by the current regime, not a self-proclaimed one.

3.Destroyed Jedi Academy on Elphrona

This episode of “Our The Mandalorian” – When Din Djarin goes to meet Luke and Grogu (baby Yoda), he arrives on a planet called Elphrona and learns that Luke will be building a new Jedi Academy.

But in the movie era of the post-trilogy, we already know it was destroyed by Kylo Ren, and the Knights_of_Ren.

4.Anakin Skywalker apprentice Ahsoka Tano

Besides Luke and Grogu, the other most amazing cameo is Ahsoka Tano, Anakin Skywalker’s apprentice who sees Luke based on family sensibilities.

What makes the fans most happy is that Ahsoka Tano said that Luke resembled his father and called him Master Luke.

These two points can show Ahsoka Tano’s feelings and thoughts on Anakin, which are worth discussing and pondering.

5.Tribute to Yoda for teaching Luke

Luke meditates, lifts objects with the Force, and walks with Grogu on his back, all of which pay homage to Yoda teaching Luke at the time.

6.The Force Lifts the X-Men

When Luke mentions that size doesn’t matter, it’s also from Yoda’s teaching.

When Luke complained that the X-Men was too big to lift with the Force, Yoda said size didn’t matter, and lifted the X-Men easily.

Also reminded Luke not to look down on Yoda because of his small size.

Don’t forget, of course, another famous saying by Yoda: “Only to do or not to do, no to try.”, also used by Luke to teach Grogu.

7.The Mystery of Yoda’s Racial Origin

One of the biggest mysteries in the Star Wars universe of all time has been Yoda’s racial origin, something George Lucas never intended to explain, thinking it would be fun to keep it mysterious.

The creation of the old official history in the past and the current official history of Disney have not been explained, and at most they are just re-creating characters of the same family.

Apparently Luke has the same question, and he’s asked Grogu-related questions several times in the episode, but he still hasn’t gotten an answer.

8.Who rescued Grogu during the massacre?

When Luke explores Grogu’s memory, he can find that the scene is the Jedi Temple massacre during Order 66, and many Jedi Knights are fighting against Anakin and his clone 501 division.

Notably, the three Jedi responsible for protecting Grogu were killed before Grogu was discovered by clone troopers.

So who the hell rescued Grogu? There is still no answer.

9.Control Ball Marksman-H

Luke took out Marksman-H, the control ball that Obi-Wan used to train his lightsaber defense, and used the same method to train Grogu to make Force Jump.

10.Yoda’s lightsaber

Another point worth mentioning is that Luke took out Yoda’s lightsaber before he was alive, and planned to let Gru of his family inherit it, so I hope he can choose to be a Jedi.

11.City “Freetown”

Cobb Vanth mentioned to Din Djarin that Mos Pelgo has now been renamed Freetown.

This setting comes from Disney’s official Star Wars novel Aftermath, which tells the development of the Star Wars universe after the fall of the Empire, laying out all the contemporary stories.

12.Bounty Hunter “Cad Bane”

The main character of the “Star Wars: Clone Wars” animated series is “Bounty Hunter” Cad Bane.

He’s the most amazing cameo in the episode, as it’s the first live-action, also voiced by Corey Burton.

It is worth mentioning that his confrontation with Cobb Vanth and the deputy sheriff is a tribute to the classic western movie “The Good, The Bad & The Ugly”.
