Spoilers The Mandalorian season 2 discussion

I'm trying to think if there has been an on-screen adult Troguta depicted before. All the ones I can think of off the top of my head have been younger. Human ears get bigger as people age; maybe Truga tails get shorter?

Also, I seem to remember reading something once about lekku being connected to reproduction, but that was probably about Twi'leks.

Speaking of length, her shoto wasn't as - well - short as I would have expected. From some angles it looked the same as the other. But that's pretty nitpicky.
Shaak Ti had very tall montrals. Here's the actress with make up:

Right, I have no idea what a Thrawn is, or where it was alluded to.

I believe "Thrawn" is is the Mongol word for King, like Gengless Thrawn from history. So this is probably some powerful warlord known for the equivalent of attacks using elephants, like the historical person.
 
I can imagine a scene where he puts the child on the altar on Tython and it cuts to Ajan Kloss with a hooded man meditating and he slowly turns his head as he senses something. That’s all I need.
 
Jeans Guy has been edited out of episode 2x04. Perhaps he was killed by Moff Gideon for allowing them to escape.
 
RE: Togruta adults. Aside from Shaak Ti, there was a whole colony's worth in this episode, and as you can see, they all have HUGE montrals.

IIRC, the shoto is supposed to be about 20% shorter than her main-hand blade, which seems about right for what we saw. Of course lightsabers all seem to have adjustable blade lengths anyway, so there's no real reason for it to be massively consistent.

Honestly, I kinda think Yoda is much more likely to show up. Aside from the fact he's the one likely to have the strongest connection for obvious reasons, he's also a much easier character to (re)introduce on the show in any substantive way. I'm sure they still have the TLJ puppet in storage and Frank Oz's voice is just a microphone and an internet connection away.
We'll see a lot of Jeans Guy cosplay when cons come back.
I'm sure there's already people shipping him with Willrow Hood.

Thrawn didn’t go to a “weird time travel dimension.” He and Ezra got flung into the unknown regions by the purgils.

If that was true, they could just come back with hyperdrive since Star Wars hyperdrives basically take you anywhere in the galaxy in hilarious short amount of time. Then again, Rebels was absolutely shit and I definitely wasn't paying much attention to the finale, but they were definitely in that stupid time travel dimension at the end of the show. They may have been shown leaving it though, I spent most of the episode being annoyed at it so I might have missed any specific talk of Thawn and shitty space Aladdin's fate

Don’t know why I bother.

We see the hooded man reach up and pull back his hood with a robotic hand. We all think Luke Skywalker but no.. It's MACE WINDU!

Shaak Ti.

She was an adult Jedi Knight as well as Master in the Prequel and Clone Wars Era. She was likely younger than Ahsoka is in The Mandalorian but still, she was a mature member of her species and played by an adult actress.

Horns in real world animals generally are tied to reproduction. Taller horns being more desirable as they are more likely to win in mating combat.

Poor Ashoka is probably just poorly endowed by Troguta beauty standards.

And this is why all of these "connections" are a horrible idea. I have no f-ing clue what you're referencing I am enough of a SW nerd that I'm discussing it online.
