Haven't really been doing the Fandom Snowflake Challenge this year, but maybe I'll catch up.

Day 6 - Best Canon

The last scene of the last episode of Season 2 of The Mandalorian.

Watch on YouTube

I'd casually enjoyed The Mandalorian, but I wasn't particularly fannish about it until this moment. The return of Luke Skywalker into the franchise just grabbed my by the throat and dragged me quite willingly into the Star Wars fandom. Unfortunately The Book of Boba Fett killed a lot of my Din/Luke love (at least for the canon characters, and honestly, it had to -- given the whole hot mess of the Sequel trilogy.

But this scene is an amazing bit of canon and it opened the door to something I have really come to love.

That was such an amazing scene and still is. I love seeing how powerful Luke had become as a Jedi.

Me too! It still takes my breath away.
