As the first on - blind female Mandalorian warrior , Bo - Katan Kryzehas established her place inStar Warsas a very memorable graphic symbol , but over the last 14 years , I somehow fail to acknowledge one problem with her story that I thinkStar Warsmight last be solving . I , like many others , beget intoBo - Katan ’s storybefore her bouncy - action debut inThe Mandalorianseason 2 , as she plays a key part inStar Warscanon ’s Mandalorian history . This made her first alive - natural action appearance all the more thrilling for me and many others , and she ’s now a more mainstreamStar Warscharacter .
This all start with theanimatedStar WarsTV show , particularlyStar war : The Clone WarsandStar Wars Rebels , both of which localize Bo - Katan at the heart of any action regarding Mandalore itself . I ’ve see these episodes prison term and time again , but had n’t really revisited them post - The Mandalorianseason 3 . Now that I have , however , I ’ve noticed one glaring issue with Bo - Katan ’s entireStar Warsstory - and I actually think that the franchise is already devise itself to puzzle out it .

Bo-Katan Kryze Has Constantly Been Trying To Reclaim Mandalore
Her Story Hasn’t Changed All That Much In 14 Years
From her unveiling inThe Clone Warsto her most late adventure inThe Mandalorianseason 3,Bo - Katan has always had the same goal : to reclaim Mandalore . It started with Bo - Katan ’s tenure in theDeath Watchwhen she was untried , which see her work directly alongside Pre Vizsla to reclaim the planet from the New Mandalorians , who assess pacifism rather than the Mandalorians ' ancient warrior slipway . When that come after , but Vizsla was killed and replaced byDarth Maul , Bo - Katan then sought out Ahsoka Tano for help in reclaiming Mandalore from the former Sith .
Star Wars has been quiet as to why the Mandalorians — some of the most powerful warriors in the galax — contend to get wiped out so easily by the Empire .
AfterThe Clone Wars , this design continue for the Mandalorian inheritrix . InRebels , Bo - Katan and Clan Kryze teamed up with Sabine Wren , who had theDarksaberat the time , to domesticize Mandalore from the Empire . This was after Bo - Katan had been made regent by the Jedi , and had lose her spatial relation of influence after being betrayed by Clan Saxon , who were majestic sympathizers . Despite Bo - Katan and Sabine finally earning their desired exemption and Bo - Katan being endue the Darksaber , The Mandalorianseason 2 restarts this intact spark over again , with Moff Gideon laying permissive waste to Mandalore in theGreat Purge .
This is the cycle of Bo - Katan ’s story . This quality hasalwaysbeen adjudicate to reform Mandalore from something or someone , which has badly restrain her eccentric exploration and story as a result . There is , however , hope for the Mandalorian heiress go forward .
The Mandalorian Season 3 Finally Breaks This Cycle
Bo-Katan Seems To Have Finally Succeeded in Reclaiming Mandalore
WhileThe Mandalorianseason 3 initially continues this cycle by telling the story of Bo - Katan , alongside Din Djarin , reclaiming Mandalore from Gideon and theImperial Remnant , its ending has the potential to be a significant betterment . This seems to have more permanence to it than Bo - Katan ’s other arc termination , particularly because Gideon is beat , and the Empire is no longer - which means the Remnant ’s resources are truly too run through to spend more time and effort taking Mandalore back a third time . This story could be the one that truly breaks Bo - Katan ’s problematic cycle .
The Mandalorian has two capable leaders in both Din Djarin and Bo - Katan Kryze , and here are the reasons why both of them are formidable for the role .
It ’s worth noting , however , thatThe Mandalorianseason 3 ’s endingis very standardized to that of Bo - Katan ’s arc inRebels , andStar Warscould very well make up one’s mind to countenance Mandalore slither through Bo - Katan ’s grasp yet again . That termination saw Bo - Katan purportedly unify the Mandalorian tribe under the Darksaber , yet we see how that all shook out by the sentence ofThe Mandalorian . The enfranchisement , however , can not rightfully afford to go down this path again .
Bo-Katan Has To Maintain Control Of Mandalore This Time
Another Repeat Of This Cycle Would Be Too Much
It ’s one affair for Bo - Katan to domesticize Mandalore twice over and turn a loss it just as many times ( inThe Clone WarsandRebels , respectively ) . For it to come about a third time would just be downright abysmal for both Bo - Katan and Mandalore as a whole . She deserves to really essay her worth and her outgrowth as a loss leader , and Mandalore merit to actually flourish for once rather than serve as a battleground that continues to slip from rulers ' clasp .
Star Warshas to countenance Bo - Katan wield control and influence over Mandalore now . WithThe Mandalorian and Grogumoviebeing the next probable place to see Bo - Katan again , it should n’t take long to figure out if the enfranchisement is truly run short to violate Bo - Katan ’s cyclic account pattern by showing her ruling over a thriving Mandalore . If it does n’t , and things have drop for her again , then it looks as ifBo - Katan Kryzemay never get the true DoJ she deserves - though I have trust that this wo n’t take place .
