I can see how Ezra would be a guardian and how Luke would be a counselor. I love how Ahsoka fits as centurion with her white sabers. She seems to not care which direction the Force leads her. She is a vessel for the Force.

[kronos]

The majority of Ezra's career has him leaning more towards a counselor than a guardian. When trying to destroy the sith he didn't seek to better his battle prowess, he sought the deeper knowledge of the force for answers. Basically any time he wasn't being instructed by Kanan in the ways of the guardian Ezra seemed to naturally go the way of the counselor. He just seems like he was much more in tune with the force than Kanan or even Ahsoka at that point, she had to go through an entire spiritual journey to unlock the ability to communicate with the purrgil while Ezra did it on instinct.

[Scallywaag]

I always thought Ezra had a green sober because at the time while Kanan was blind and not teaching him, he was learning form the Sith holocron and focusing on the esoteric parts of the force instead of the Guardian way.

Most likely Ezras new crystal simply came from Huyangs stock of parts.
It makes sense he would have a stock of crystals since Jedi didnt go to Ilum every time they lost a saber (Obi Wan and Anakin are thrown a saber each in the Geonosis arena) equally the training sabers would have needed crystals too etc

[markluckins]

I miss Ezra's saber pistol, it was incredibility unique.

[InfiniteNaos]

I like that Ahsoka pretty much developed a new type of Jedi role that Thrawn named for her. The Jedi Guardian, Jedi Consular, Jedi Sentinel, and now Jedi Ronin. Maybe it won’t ever be another role in the Order, but it would be a nice addition to what’s not known very often similar to the Jedi Shadows.

[ussfury]

So I have always assumed that the Green Crystal he took from the Crossguard Lightsaber he found on Malachor after his was destroyed. So he was working with whatever he had at that moment. Going back to the blue crystal is just what he was always meant to have

[doodtheman]

I think Ezra's lightsaber represents his intentions at a given moment. He began as a Guardian eager to take the fight to the Empire with the Rebels. Then he became a Consular as he slowly grew more interested in learning the intricacies of the Force than martial skills, to the point of discarding his Jedi weapon to pursue mastery of the Force. Now he's back and he's actively fighting to protect his family, a Guardian once again. It's only a pity he didn't have a brief stint as a Sentinel for a bit.

[theperipatetic]

Excited to see what they do next with Ezra. Hopefully we don't have to wait for Ahsoka Season 2 to continue his story, since he is back in the main galaxy.

My question is what would Sabine be? To me, she exemplifies a guardian more than a counselor, given that she's always ready for a fight. The only thing that might give her counselor qualities is her love of art and her ability to study and decipher it. But other than that, she's a defender through and through.

[MrArthurKF]

So I’m always interested in your videos! The format is exceptional and informative. Positive and thought provoking. I enjoy many of the Star Wars channels to help me think through all of what it is, but your is definitely my favorite. Long story short. Lol. I’d love to hear about the Ronin Jedi in more detail.

[richee]

But the real reason that Luke has a green blade is because it showed up better against the blue sky in the scrap between him and Jabba's forces above the Sarlac pit

[OllamhDrab]

The lightsaber color lore, various versions of it, always seems to be a topic of interest. I think some things are still a bit mysterious, like say how much imprinting or other means might represent, say, a Jedi's destiny or aptitudes, or more like where they're at at the time, or maybe even a strong hint from the Force what they *ought* to be pursuing for a path or something. :)

I think with Sabine we still have little hint where she's going but maybe the green suits her in that her best fighting isn't really of the Jedi sort so far but she seems to have found she can be more powerful Forcewise if she's *not* trying to use it for just one more weapon system. :) (I mean, personally, if I try to transpose my own life onto Jedi stuff I'd expect younger me would be a real blue-blade type but I can really identify with the idea of regular Jedi Sentinels being the types who kind of adopt places and associated peoples, live by practical and often technical skills, and watch over said places and deal with it if things get weird/badness shows up. :) And that sort of role seems pretty natural to Sabine, doesn't it? She was bein like 'The heroic techie in a literal watchtower' on Lothal all that time after all. :) (I hope someone looks in on her Loth cat friend there. )

(Maybe she'll end up with a yellow saber if Filoni's doing that thing, that'd be my idea of a guess, long-term. So far he's only showed em with Temple guards, that I can think of. )

[wardlafferty]

We have yet to see where Sabine’s stance in the Force is…maybe following in Ahsoka’s footsteps as a Jedi Ronin.

[Nico_F]

I think season 2 we’ll see Ezra take an apprentice, my bet is Jason sindula. It’s like coming full circle from kanen’s apprentice to training his son later.

[EntityUnknown]

Thank you for making this video. Not enough people are acknowledging these parallels

[Sightvibrations]

Honestly, I wish we saw Ezra take up a clear crsytal and ignite it as purple. He fits purple EXTREMELY well using the dark side and his connection in the force to protect those he cared about. He was never a perfect blue jedi gaurdian or a strong willed green force user but someone who found his balance and used both sides of the force for good, Plus it would be awesome to see a worthy character wielding a purple lighstaber who was also in Mace's lineage

[DarthMalaks_Missing_Lower_Jaw]

Sabine needs to reconstruct the Darksaber

[WolfsRaven]

I'd love to hear your insight on what it means to be a Jedi Ronin with a white blade.

[TheDarien]

Excellent breakdown💯
And YES!: the Jedi Ronin explaination would be much appreciated 👍🏾
