All we know is no Padawan ever had a recorded count of over 20,000 except for Anakin Skywalker. Even Yoda's wasn't that high. Other than those established facts we can be pretty sure that Osha's count was sufficient.

Not bad. Gave us one side of what happened.
Mae started a fire, however i doubt thats everything.
Why would Tobin take his own life if it was just a fire.
Well see.
7/10.

I wonder if this implies that Osha and Mae were conceived with the midichlorians and almost a century before Anakin, meaning that Plagueis and Sidious learned the method from forerunners in the Dark Side. Maybe that's the "soft retcon." Anakin is no longer the first and only known creation of the midichlorians.
Good point regarding Tobin.
Good have been that the witches and Jedi stared blaming each other for the fire.
Really hasnt been bad so far.. much better than boba fett or andor.. those sucked.
And I was wrong too.
That was actually a lot more straightforward than I expected, I expected some kind of big twist that exposed a lie by the Jedi, but there wasn't one. It does appear that there's more to the story since there are still flashback scenes in the trailer that weren't Destiny. They showed what must have been Mae running through a burning forest, and a confrontation between the Jedi and Mae's master that appears to include both Torbin and Indara, so I'm assuming there are more flashbacks to come.
I'm curious what the significance of the twins having been artificially created by Aniseya is going to be, because I have a feeling that's going to somehow come into play into whatever the series endgame is.
Has canon ever said definitely if Palpatine created Anakin? I know that's a theory that's been floating around, but I'm not sure if anything in the Disney canon has ever addressed it.
If he wasn't involved than Mae and Osha aren't quite the same since Mother Aniseya created them, while Anakin was spontaneously created by The Force.
So episode3 was supose to kill star wars?

I had that same thought.
I do find it interesting Mae seemed lean more towards the Dark Side while Osha seemed to lean more towards the Light Side even without the influence of Mea's master or the Jedi. I'm assuming that wasn't coincidence.
S P A C E L E S B I A N S. Some people aren't handling it well.
I thought this was the best one so far. I read the leaks weeks ago and was a little worried this episode might come across didactic – with how Leslye has been talking up how "queer" she wanted to make the show I thought it might be evil heteronormative Jedi persecuting the poor lesbian coven, but it was very even-handed in its depiction. Every character had their own perspective the issue and the conflict came from different characters wanting different things. You know, like a story.
TBH, I'm on Osha's side here. Growing up in that insular community doesn't sound very appealing, and Sol in particular seems like a good potential mentor. I'm glad at least that one of Osha's mothers was supportive.
But – couldn't they have dressed the twins in different outfits at least? I couldn't keep track of who was who.

It came across as.. the jedi are the only way.. period. If your force sensitive . Your ours.
Even though there are numerious planets with probably numerious versions of "the force"
Dont like where there taking the Jedi. As not truelly good. More there way or the highway. Like 15th cebtury church..

The Jedi were literally using a slave army to fight their war, the clone wars TV series made it clear the clones could not refuse to fight.
Where did you get the impression that they were pure?
I didn't expect a flashback episode this early on (not that I needed one right away) but I was pleasantly surprised to see Brendok and one side of the events that occurred 16 years prior. The episode was shown from the perspective of Osha and there's no way that fire alone could destroy the entire fortress (as well as slaughter the entirety of the powerful coven), so clearly there's more to the story than what was revealed here. Considering the low episode count, I doubt we'll get another whole episode from Mae's perspective of those events, but I would surprised if we don't get a sequence of flashbacks from her side of things.
Maybe it's because I just read the book (shamingly, for the first time) but the moment Mae burned Osha's book of drawings out of anger and jealousy, I immediately thought of Amy March burning Jo's stories early on in their own childhood in Little Women. Probably just a coincidence but the moment jumped out at me nonetheless.
As much as I adore Amandla Stenberg's performance as both sisters, after watching Leah and Lauren Brady as young Mae and Osha in this episode, I wish the adult versions of them were also played by real life twins instead of a single actress. I don't have any issues with the technical side of things, rather the absence of the real connection and uniqueness of twins, something the episode itself focused on thematically and heavily underscored by the young actresses themselves.
