So, turns out it wasn’t Kevin Michael Richardson voicing Krell after all, but Dave Fennoy! Man, what a voice! He absolutely nailed the character.

And speaking of Krell… SPACE VIETNAM WAS ABSOLUTELY NUTS! From the planet itself becoming a threat to the enemy right in front of them, to the damn General turning against his own men, this arc was one wild ride from start to finish!

And remember, everyone… SCREW KRELL! 😂 What a character, though. Love him or hate him, he definitely made this arc unforgettable.

Drop your thoughts in the comments below, and as always, enjoy the ride!

- RIP Hardcase, Waxer, and the hundreds upon hundreds of other clones in both the 501st and the 212th killed in the line of duty. So much wasted life. - The Umbarans are a truly fearsome people with technology unlike anywhere else in the galaxy, the vehicles clearly inspired by the wildlife on their planet. A little side note: the Umbarans can breathe the atmosphere of their planet. The gas inside their helmets was actually a mixture of vitamins and stimulants meant hop them up on the battlefield, not unlike soldiers in the World Wars using meth and other drugs. - The Umbaran campaign was the third most lethal campaign in the entirety of the Clone Wars, behind only the combined First & Second Battles of Geonosis and the off-screen Battle of Jabiim (lead by Ventress, 27 Jedi and 9,000+ clones killed), and it’s easy to see why. Umbara is hostile and alien planet, even by Star Wars standards, and the combination of the Umbaran people’s tactics and technology, the dark, fogged, dense environment, and the local wildlife made it a meat grinder. - Pong Krell was a despicable individual and really did only look out for himself. He is, imo, one of the most truly evil people in the series, but also one of the absolutely best written. The emotions that he can make well up inside of you tells you that this is a character who the writers did just right. - The character growth for Rex, Fives, and the rest of the crew her is staunch. As I said last arc, the transition to their Phase II armor is a physical representation of the war reaching its latter half and things going into a decline, but this arc really was a true wake up call for what’s really coming and for the future of the clones. - Dogma deserved better. He put his full trust into the leadership because that’s what he knew and he was the most betrayed for it. He absolutely deserved to be the one to get the kill on Krell, and I think that Rex will vouch for him, even if he may still receive prison time. - In the call just before the friendly fire attack, the clone told Krell that “the Umbarans have taken both our weapons and our uniforms”, hence where he got that from. The validity of this is left ambiguous. - Just to clarify, Krell was acting completely of his own accord the entire time. Palpatine took Anakin out of the fight because he wanted better chances of Umbara joining the CIS, but Krell wasn’t his special agent. At most, Palpatine likely knew Krell’s reputation of racking up more clone casualties than any other general and so may have recommended to that council that he may replace Anakin in order to sow more discord, but that’s likely it. Krell was evidently heavily attuned to the force, having visions of the Republic losing the war in an alternative way and transitioning into the Empire, so he decided to take it into his own hands to try and get in the good graces of Count Dooku and come out on top.

It’s one of my favorite Arc from the whole show ! This arc bring us closer to the clones as characters and individuals. Jesse is the one who bears the emblem of the Republic, while Tup is the one who wears his hair in a ponytail. It must be acknowledged that Krell put up a far fiercer resistance than most Jedi did during Order 66. I wonder if Palpatine knew that Krell was a traitor and that the clones would eventually try to stop him—and if he orchestrated the whole thing as a test to see whether the clones were truly capable of defeating a Jedi Master, in order to ensure the success of Order 66.

Waxer😭😭😭

Nah i always look back to that arc and think if Anakin found out what krell did to his men he would just fly out asap from corusant and slime his ass

I believe when rex and the clones first tried to arrest krell in the tower it mirrors when the jedi went to arrest Palpatine for beaing a sith as both say its treason then before attacking. Also clone trooper appo is the clone that told senator organa to leave in revenge of the sith as well as being an avatar the last air bender refrence some more clones refrence marvel like commander thorn and commander doom (Thor and Dr. Doom) who you will meet later in the series.

From what I know, Krell was acting completely of his own accord due to the visions he was seeing regarding the transition from the Republic to the Empire. Palpatine had Anakin called back to Coruscant because he wanted a better chance at the CIS taking control of Umbara, but Krell was not his agent. More than likely, Palpatine simply heard the stories of the Jedi general with the highest clone casualties on average (Krell clearly hated clones regardless of his later plans) and likely recommended him as Anakin’s replacement to better ruin the Republic’s plans, even if Krell was technically a successful general. Krell did not even know Palpatine was a Sith, obviously. He foresaw the future, but he only knew of Dooku and him being a Sith, so he wanted to try and get into Dooku’s good graces.

Anriku

Nice catch. I can see that being a parallel. Ah, so I'm guessing Appo is around during the Empire reign as a storm trooper?

Anriku

That's kind of the vibe I got. Palpatine might have suggested him knowing his record in hopes that he would botch the mission or make it more difficult for the clone forces.

Anriku

Couldn't agree more. So many crazy moments.

Anriku

Damn straight. Anakin is ride or die for his people.

Anriku

So much wasted, indeed. Mostly because Krell is a piece of shit. Screw that dude. Well written character, though. Ah, so they were being doped up. Got it. I was wondering what that gas was about. Their tech kind of gave me Yhuzan Vong vibes, but of course, the Vong despised tech. Just the whole insect/nature vibe applied to the tech gave me that thought.
