Same. I remember how I freaked out when Ahsoka first appeared in Rebels. I was like “NO WAY”
proud to say that I loved Rebels before the Ahsoka trailer came out
Character A: “You destroyed their life!”
Character B: “I’m just being supportive.”
Character A: “How is that supportive?”
Character B: “They decided to hate me, so I’m helping them by giving them a valid reason to.”
It’s not just with Even Piell. Every clone is left behind while the Jedi are getting suitable funerals. The bodies of the clones rot in the sand and the only ones who remember them are their brothers. It hurts.
Was the choice to have Evan Piell given an entire funeral while all of the fallen clones just get left behind a really stupid one to make? Yes. Does it come with some unfortunate implications if we take it very literally? Yes. Are you intended to view that writing choice as an actual condemnation of the way the Jedi view and treat the clones?
No.
Because this is a show for KIDS and when it wants you to know who the bad guy is, they aren't fucking subtle about it. Neither Obi-Wan nor Anakin are presented as the bad guys for either leaving the clones behind OR giving Evan Piell a funeral.
This is a show that plays the Imperial March every time Anakin so much as smirks just to really hammer the point home. This is a show that set an entire arc on a planet that appears to be perpetually dark just to really emphasize how evil Pong Krell is and how bad the clones have it in that moment. This is a franchise that has made its color symbolism as obvious as fucking possible so that every time someone shows up in red, you KNOW they're the bad guy, case closed, no more questions.
If they wanted us to condemn the Jedi for giving Evan Piell a funeral, they'd have said so. They'd have had one of the clones, or Ahsoka, or even Anakin, question that choice. This is an arc that has Tarkin in it who isn't hesitating to criticize the Jedi for being too soft to achieve victories, and HE doesn't even say anything to criticize the funeral when it happens.
It's a dumb writing choice that doesn't take into account how it makes the characters look when they stop to mourn a Jedi and never the clones, not an intentional condemnation of the Jedi as a whole. And I say this with confidence because nothing about the funeral is treated like it's a bad thing or something we as the audience should condemn and if we were intended to do so, we'd know it without an ounce of doubt.
I thought it would be a good idea to do that so:
I am local-Jawa but I also go by Chi. My birthday is on the 6th June, my star sign is Gemini and I’m an ENFP. I’m not really sure what to write about me. Well I am open for conversations and meeting new people. And I’m german, yes, my favourite colour is yellow.
Three words that describe me:
Optimistic, idiotic, extroverted
To be honest, I have no clue on what to post in here. I just type down my thoughts about almost everything and click on the post-button. Like I’m just gonna summon my last remaining braincells and type everything down that flows into my mind. The most things I will be talking about are:
Star Wars, Anime, Manhwa and Manga, Ninjago, League of Legends, Arcane, Dragon Raja, Sky children of the light, books and writing stuff since I really like to write!

Any opinions on this? Could it count as Fives talking about Echo‘s death? It kinda sounds robot‘ish at the start but gets better. I‘m just nit fully convinced yet. Does anybody have any good Voice AI‘s which are for free?
I just woke up and this is the first thing I see. I’m literally sobbing. THIS IS SO ACCURATE, I’M CRYING. But also, the drawing is SO good
