The first half of this series was a slow burn, but I think that was the whole point of this because it had to show Kaz building up to be a better spy and a Resistance member. This is basically a build up in an era of peace. So it makes sense that the first half would start slow since the First Order invasion hasn't begun yet. Kaz starts off as pretty annoying, but slowly he starts to earn his spot and actually became a more capable Resistance member
It's a slow build, but this is precisely why it works, and how season 1 ended is where the payoff shows because you see how the characters build up to what they now are from what they use to be. Everything that has happen perfectly build up to the events of the sequel trilogy. And the animations just looks really artistic. I can see why they chose a more anime influenced animation. It's almost like moving art because of how the colors look. Even the ships look incredible to watch, and I just love looking at them because of how interesting their designs looked. The ships were clearly he best part of this season
It's a slow series, but it's intentional, and you just sit back and just enjoy yourself while you have a good time. I just found this series to be really enjoyable, and even some of the episodes alone could become a setting for a Battlefron DLC. Overall, this was a really fun series that people shouldn't judge harshly and give it a chance. Just enjoy it for the ride as it is and just have fun. NOthing to be taken seriously and just enjoys. It takes time to adjust, but it's been a great fun to watch
