Hey everyone!  Here's my reaction and review of Clone Wars 6x07!  Oh man, watching Clovis epically fail here was really intense and sad!  He made some really poor choices but ultimately, he was right that he was no mastermind.  But dang, he just had nothing to lose and really spiraled here.  Sadly, this all makes Anakin look pretty much in the right...but seriously, are we NOT gonna talk about the violent outburst?!  That was still pretty bad right, regardless of Clovis?!  What if he'd been wrong?!  This would have gone a very different way...!!!!  Another great arc in the books!  Great ep!  Enjoy!  ~ MH

Saltire

People tend to give Clovis a hard time throughout, and yes he does bring a lot of it on himself; he was clearly an ambitious person who became corrupted early, but in trying to find a sort of redemption here, falls into the claws of Palpatine and his plans to further his control of the Republic. He now has not just the unheard of power granted to him from the senators in the movies, but now has possession of the banks too, solidifying his grip further. We also see how much the vast majority of senators support him come what may, and see just how much they are willing to give up their democracy, to win the war, and in doing so, will be ready to accept the birth of the Empire. I love the music during Palpatine's speech at the end. You can really feel how much power he now has, and that the rise of true evil under his tenure as the Emperor, is only months away now. Pretty dark stuff.

Yes, Clovis is a good example of "the road to hell is paved with good intentions" - and like you mentioned, this is also on the part of others around him too, who are willing to sacrifice a lot (maybe too much) to win the war. Ohhhh the speech!!! Yes we are so close to his rise to power now, so dark!!!

To be fair to Anakin here, near the end he valiantly tried to hold on to both Padme and Clovis. And I do feel sorry for Clovis: it’s quite dark for a ‘kids’ show that he let go and let himself fall - another victim of Palpatine’s manipulations and ambitions. Like Saltire, I love the ominous, dark music at the end, when Palpatine is giving his speech - a speech very reminiscent of the speech he gives at the end of Revenge of the Sith. You could almost see Padme being about to say, “Is this how democracy ends … with thunderous applause”

That is true! And yes, sometimes I forget this show is for kids lol. The music was amazing! OMG, I was just editing this episode and thought that to myself during that very scene!!!
