Excitement is already brewing amongst fans in anticipation of the release of the latest season. For those who may be uncertain about what to expect, here are a few reasons to brace yourself for an exhilarating experience in this new season.
In the new season, Din Djarin, once a lone bounty hunter, has been reunited with Grogu, a child of Yoda’s species whom he rescued and subsequently turned over to Luke Skywalker at the end of Season 2. It showcases a massive growth in the bond that Mandalorian and Grogu share. While their relationship may already seem to be a pretty close representation of a father-son relationship, their friendship and bond grow throughout the season as they constantly look out for each other.
With the Darksaber in Mandalorian’s possession, he is the rightful ruler of Mandalore as per prophecy. However, Bo-Katan believes being the ruler of Mandalore is her birthright and is set to challenge Mandalorian for the right to rule over all of Mandalore
At the end of Season 2, in a moving scene, Din Djarin removed his helmet so that Grogu could see his face before they were separated. Jon Favreau and his team knew when the background was written that the removal of one’s helmet was a severe breach of the Mandalorian culture and principles and would have to be addressed in Season 3. However, with Din Djarin shows his face to Grogu, he opens himself up to some severe consequences from the Mandalorians as a punishment for disobeying their culture or rules.
“Part of the success of ‘The Mandalorian’ is that we’re talking about mythology and the hero’s journey. Through the storyline, it links the older and newer generation heroes to the viewer and makes the viewers believe that the journey their hero is on is much like their own life journey.
