By the standards of the galaxy Jango is fairly neutral, because he lacks cruelty and does show empathy frequently enough, but he is still a villain. Part of the point of the bounty hunter character is that they are charming and thrilling, but at the end of the day they are all willing to kill to make money. Is it an understandable act? Of course, they are just trying to make their way in the universe after all, but plenty of other little people make their way in the universe without killing for profit. Jango is sympathetic but he's still a villain at the end of the day.

I always loved the Mandalorians, their history, their culture, and how they're sometimes put in a brighter light away from their war-obsessed ways, but after a while you start to realize how nothing can erase all the shit they've done for thousands of years because of their sense of honor and Darwinism. Your videos on the Mandalorians are the best.

One of the most famous last words

The Mandalorians are a warrior culture, warriors are are inextricably tied to war itself, and war itself is never pretty. Therefore, it is to be expected that the Mandalorians aren’t a pretty culture at heart. Their culture isn’t built around any specific set of morals, but rather the values required to survive when at war. As such, while they have been a powerful people at times, they are inherently ill-suited towards times of peace, to the extent that those who lived by their ways would always find their way into war, either by joining one or starting one. As stated, not pretty.

The Mandalorian set of values is actually a very positive one and not very much had to do with war at all.

Jango has been my favorite Star Wars character since 2002. His backstory is just phenomenal. A broken person who lost his parents and sister Arla, who looked very similar to Omega btw, to Death Watch. Lost his Mentor Jaster to Death Watch. Then lost all of his True Mandalorian brothers to the corrupt Jedi Order, who didn’t even investigate the situation. What did Jango do? Got revenge on Death Watch, killed Tor Vizsla and sent Death Watch into hiding, became the top Bounty Hunter in the Universe, and then became the Clone Template not only to find the proper heir and successor for himself and Jaster, but also to wipe out the Jedi Order in what was the perfect form of revenge. The last True Mandalorian that they left alive literally cloned himself, and had millions of his clones wipe out the Jedi Order. The first 34 years of his life were filled with tragedy and turmoil, but his last 10 with Boba Fett were special, and I truly feel like Jango felt like his life was fulfilled at the time of his end. And like Hondo Ohnaka said, “He was a good friend and an honorable man.”

Something just occurred to me: Was Bo Katan ever TRULY redeemed for the things she did while in Death Watch? At what point did fighting against Maul's regime excuse the fact that she helped it happen?

She does admit in the Episode "The Spies" that her own past selfishness helped contributed to the fall of her world. Granted this is just one scene but still to me this confirmed that she did regret of her time with Death Watch. Should there be more scenes her talking about her past of course but still. Look I'm not defended Bo-Katan at all when she was with death watch especially in that Clone Wars episode ''A Friend in Need.'' you referenced. For Some reason I feel that the reason why they forgot about what she did in that episode because she at the time a new character second to Pre Vizsla in the show they probably didn't developed her relationship with Satine yet but still the out of the universe reason in my head at least. A lot of people really loved to blamed The Great Purge on Bo-Katan and that Sabine should have keep the Darksaber here is the thing the Great Purge was going to happened no matter what who is leading the mandalorians at the time. From the perspective of the Empire they killed not only the viceroy but also the governor of Mandalore which is why they go full genocide mode on the Mandalorians. To be fair she did tried to stop it by giving the Darksaber to Moff Gideon but it was all for nothing but still the fact she did the give the literal symbol of Mandalore to a ISB agent to stop the Empire's extinction of her people. Honestly even if Sabine still keep the Darksaber and stayed with her people the end result would be the same. But you the point what I’m saying is that What she did and her time in Death Watch was awful but she isn't a sadist like Palpatine who let be honest is way way worse then Bo-Katan especially the amount of body counts as well as the blood of innocent people on his hands along with Darth Vader and Tarkin. If I do have one issue with Bo-Katan as a character is that we just don't know much about her or not given much depth which is why her talking about her father to Din when he goes out for the mines was great because we get a small but important backstory for her character that was needed. I would loved a Bo-Katan novel written by Christie Golden akin to her two World of Warcraft novels Arthas: Rise of the Lich King and Slyvanas? where we learn her early years and childhood to either before Din and Grogu meet her in her throne room or The forge being lit all the while we get her scenes from the clone wars, rebels, and the mandalorian but we here we see her perspective and thoughts. The book would also need a cool titled like the Daughter of Mandalore or The Princess of Mandalore or even the daughter of clan kryze or Kalevala?

Didn't many Mandalorians saw and hated Death Watch for their ways, maybe more and more Mandalorians began to notice that the old Mandalorian way was just mindless butcher. Jango deeply hated Death Watch for the death of Jaster Mereel and if you think about it, the Siege of Mandalore was Jango's revenge and last win. A bunch of clones of himself winning the battle.

Mandalorian lore is so rich and so much of it is shrouded in mystery because of how much went to EU. If we go by legends then what it means to be Mandalorian is up to each individual Mandalorian. Aside from the tenants that all Mando’a followed , the Mandalorians followed their own code of honor which led to a great deal of civil strife , only United by Mandalore and a joint desire to fight and seek out challenges in war for the purpose of self improvement.

Jango was a good man and leader before the coward Tor Vizsla orchestrated a massacre and had the Jedi do what Deathwatch couldn't. Jango was a hard man, yet he had a soft side for those few he got close to. Namely Rozz and Boba.

What I like about Pre Vizsla is that he is a really good politician as we see in the first Mandalorian arc of the clone wars and later the founding of the shadow collective with Maul. His weakness is that he is not a good military leader who acts brashly and impulsively, for example when he and death Watch slaughter that village from a strategic perspective it was pretty stupid move on Pre Vizsla's part by allowing a son of Senator watching the damn thing ruined potential alliance that could have take down Dooku or given enough resources for his takeover of Mandalore since like i said Lux was a son of senator who is wealthy regardless it was a stupid move on Pre Vizsla's for making Lux watching the atrocity ruining everything!

Okay, this one I actually kind of agree with, unlike the last video about Mandalorians. The Death Watch, especially the likes of Pre Viszla, Gar Saxon, Rook, and all the others who choose to remain loyal to Maul and later sided with the Empire when they came to power, were evil and they represent the worst aspects of Mandalorian culture. But at least the likes of the True Mandalorians, Din, Sabine, and many other Mandalorians are at least trying to make things better for the Mandalorians, showing that warrior cultures are not inherently a bad thing if tempered by honorable things like what the new Mandalorians of recent years have done, the Mandalorians are evolving and becoming better, so there is hope for the future for the Mandalorians to survive and thrive and not be assholes who harass the rest of the galaxy. Much like with the Republic, I'm still loyal to the Mandalorians but the actual good ones who are trying to make things better like I'm loyal to the actual good parts of the Republic before it was corrupted completely into the Empire.

I’ve been thinking lately just how devastating Pre Viszla would have been if he was force sensitive and learned how to fight with the force through his ancestor, Tar Viszla’s writings as a mandalorian jedi.

I mean it all depends on your point of view of the way of the mandalor.

Can't wait for the Post Vizla arc

probably one of the worst decisions was trying to repaint Bo Kotan as anything other than a villain. She was Vizla's right hand, supported him wholeheartedly, and saw no issue with assassinating her sister, destroying her legacy, violently extorting and oppressing weaker worlds, and throwing Mandalore's lot in with the Separatists. So in season 7, her attempts at guilt-tripping Obi-Wan were absolute garbage, and the idea she's a worthy leader of the Mandalorians is also garbage. Rebels is bad but it at least introduced clans more worthy of leading Mandalore than Bo Kotan.

The Templin Institute explores the topic of the “Proud Warrior Race” and how as a society it is set up to fail just like the Mandalorian culture. Too much focus on individual honor and glory, might makes right and crush all who are weaker. The answer they come up with is a society where a national identity is tied to military service to the nation and not to individual groups, families or clans as is the case for Mandalorians and Klingons. The full video has a great overview on this.

I always pictured The Mandalorian Code as something that evolved out of necessity after Mandalorian society fell apart and they were all forced to find work as bounty hunters and mercenaries. A policy of always completing contracts to avoid being labeled as a backstabber or someone who couldn't get the job done and thus never getting hired again morphed into a belief that you always keep your word. A policy of minimizing collateral damage to avoid trouble with local authorities morphed into a belief that you never harm the innocent or defenseless and so on.

No wonder the Mandos and Sith are besties.

This is Canon for me!

I feel like for all these reasons stated in the video we're seeing that shift in the mandalorians presented in cannon now. Even Bo katan trying to think differently to make something better for the future. These people have been ravagers and the ravaged for so many thousands of years that maybe, just maybe, the so few who are left now will finally turn away from that darkness and at least try to live a little more honorably and with a little less bloodshed over whose the strongest. Star Wars seemingly always held that nearly anyone can make a change for the better one day, even if its the long way around.

They're basically the Klingons from Star Trek, down to the change in characterization

The Mandalorian culture is one of the most well-rounded cultures in the Star Wars universe. We see the Good, the Bad, the Ugly and the Grey in so many examples. A lot of fictions don't do that for warrior cultures (Klingons for example), which frankly makes it flat and dull in my opinion. They're more than just warriors even if that's the traditional (or orthodox) way of their history. They have a culture beyond the martial, going into spiritualism and a respect for art and crafts. But also showing "the dark side" of their beliefs, which are shown in Pre and Gar. Personally, I always figured there was more to Pre then what we saw in the show, that he wasn't just born that way, but became that way over time like all the good villains. Before the Legends canon was replaced, many fans believed he had close relations with Tor Viszla, likely as his son or grandson. And boy Tor really exemplified the dark side of Mandalorian culture in a way that only Pre came close to showing.

There was interesting points you captured into here that indeed brings back to the darker side of the Mandalorian history but I feel you didn't captured true complexity of the situation, especially claiming that the Mandalorians never were honorable back during the Old Republic in notion and that of Death Watch being representive of it, its much more complicated than that as it's an "Yes and No". The Death Watch represented the worse that had always been there that can be much seen but the True Mandalorians represented more for the honorable aspects that was there. You've overlooked on fact there had been Mandalorians who chose live by their culture by being better individuals through hardships as for an example as seen in Mandalorians who purse civilian professions, the Mandalorians belief in pursing challenges and growing from it can apply this in being a merchant, a doctor, a farmer, and so forth in being the very best they can be into the role and there were Mandalorians who played their roles too in helping the galaxy instead of the times they were an terror like during the Mandalorian Wars. Look at Mandalore the Uniter himself did during the New Sith Wars, he was essentially like the Aragorn version of a Mandalorian when he came back to Mandalore find it in chaos and his family nearly wiped out, when he brought many Mandalorians back to Mandalore to reform themselves in the Return and drove out the pirates that raided them. He set forth on creating better relations with their neighbors in offering protection services and creating stability within those Star Systems, while it unfortunately got its greyer lines as later Mandalores chose to look in creating power, Aga Awaud himself can genuinely be considered an Hero that's still not only a celebrated figure by Mandalorians but also outsiders in the Outer-Rim. Just be careful not to over simplified when getting into those rightful criticisms of the Mandalorians as one can still be a great fan of them while still acknowledging the bad when knowing the details greater and seeing the culture for what it is. It comes down to like this much like looking at our own world's past warriors like the Samurai, the very best were proud men and women driven by a code that they were willing give their lives for what they believed in while the worse were bloodthirsty killers. Hell even when Pre Vizsla claimed to the Ming Po people that "You don't allow the weak to command the strong" was in violation of traditional Mandalorian beliefs as for the Chieftain to display bravery to stand up to him showed the value of growing strong that the Mandalorians have traditionally believed in when you are willing to stand before danger, showing that you were not weak afterall. “Foreigners aren't without honor. Take a look at any outsider who struggles against oppression or injustice and you will see someone with the body of an aruetii, but the soul of a Mando'ad.” - Jango Fett, on his decision to incorporate non-Mandalorian drill sergeants into the Cuy'val Dar Overall keep developing out your Mandalorian videos and do indeed capture the darker realities but get into more of the details as you do have an unfortunate habit looking at one lens than the full scale.

How can you tell someone hasn't watched stuff like Rebels? They pronounce names like "Tarre Vizsla" as "TarrE" Rather than "Tar". I believe you ALSO mis-spelled "Iokath" calling them "Lokath" back in a video you made talking about the Eternal Empire. Now, understandably, I get being able to missunderstand a capital I from a small l, they are so identical after all. But if you had understood that names always start with a capital letter, you would not have made that mistake. Better yet, you can even copy the first letter in Iokath from theWookieepedia, and put it in google search, and you'd only get search alternatives starting with the letter I rather than L.

I would have said "an image of idiots" but okey

I don’t mean to be cold, but wouldn’t that mean the Imperial takeover of Mandalore was sort of a reboot of Mandalore? It’s certainly not anything close to Satine’s New Mandalorians, but don’t you think Bo Katan probably has learned enough from her life to lead the Mandalorians in a better way? I mean, she’s spent a large chunk of her post-Death Watch life fighting for the Mandalorian people. First she actually rebels against Maul instead of just going along with tradition to the point she’s willing to free her sister and ally with the Jedi and the Galactic Republic despite once being enemies. Then she actually refuses to become the Imperial leader of Mandalore and later on joins the rebellion to overthrow the Empire. At the very least, the Mandalorian certainly leaves me uncertain of how Bo plans to lead her people. The destruction of the Darksaber seems to be the end of an era, but where do the Mandalorians go? They certainly have their own opinions of the New Republic, but they hate the Imperial Remnant more. And now they actually have an alliance with Nevarro to maintain. And what about the Mandalorian Protectors, who seem to have been in a strange grey zone during the Prequels. While Mandalore had a police force that suffered from corruption, the Protectors were actual Mandalorian warriors. Some served as Satine’s guard wearing different uniforms and using staffs, but others were dressed and armed as traditional Mandalorians like Fenn Rau and his Skull Squadron. Clearly Fenn Rau and any other Protectors who trained the Clone Troopers broke plenty of rules with the New Mandalorians, but the organization as a whole was allowed to operate and had a firm dislike of Death Watch even after the Clone Wars. Basically Geetsly, a video on the role of the Mandalorian Protectors probably would be nice. Personally, I think while Satine had no issue with allowing the Protectors to continue their role of being loyal to whoever rules Mandalore, a bigger reason for their continued existence was because they might have sided with the New Mandalorians in the Mandalorian Civil War which brought the group to power. Alternatively, maybe even Satine realized the Protectors were needed in less civilized parts of Mandalorian Space. Not every planet in the sector might have been as secure as Mandalore itself which seemed to only need a police force.

Ah that thumbnail. Failure....

Yes the mandalorians were mostly bad guys but to say they were never honorable before the True Mandalorians is not true. Canderous Ordo makes it very clear the Mando way is honor through combat and was very disturbed so many Mandos became killers for hire

As he did. For them, honor is merely a platitude and we know this by him talking about massacring the defenseless.

There is nothing wrong with mando wanting peace, especially with grogu around. Only problem is, his religion is literally weapons and combat. Not a great situation to be a guardian to a baby jedi.

Disney never should've gotten their hands on Star Wars.

....So I'm not gonna lie, but I think Pre Viszla was a neccesary evil, imagine how bad Mandalore would have been if they were still a pacifist regime when Palpatine or whichever of his Grand Moffs, turned his eye on ripping all the beskar from Mandalore that he could.

I think they would have never been purged if they were still pacifist.

So is Mando culture kinda like how core Judasim branches out into different religions? Maybe im over simplifying but theres other people in the comments with better takes.

Agreed. Warrior culture is rarely idealist.

I hate to disagree, but I do. The Resolnare is the dictating force behind the Mandalorians. Part of the was community. Living the lifestyle, raising your children in it, respecting traditions and your superiors. The Mandalorians were neither good, nor bad, light not dark; like most of the galaxy. Did they do horrible things in the passed? Sure. So did the Empire and The Republic. The Mandos are just people.

Thing is legends don’t really do the Mandalorians justice portraying them as just blood thirsty conquerors with nothing admirable about them so I thing the mandalorian was a way to compensate and show they do have honor and admirable qualities self improvement taking on harsh challenges devotion to family clan solidarity the warrior way of the mandalroe. The thing is as much as I disagree with the dishonorable conduct of death watch they did have a point about the new mandalorians they were weak essentially Republic puppets reliant on the support of the senate and Jedi that made mandalorian loose their culture their pride and self respect.

warrior culture sure, but they always been hot headed and ideological in their depiction, a stark contrast to the peacefull ideological Jedi

Her pacifist ways died with her, and the return to beskar and Jetpack returned

I see him as Dar'Manda -- a cosplayer. Pre is an abomination and doesn't deserve the honor of being a Vizla... Shae would be disgusted by him.

I always knew the inherent mandalorian was nothing but a mindless thug. Their true culture revolved around nothing but senseless violence just for the heck of it. I mean, look at what they did to their own homeworld. The planet mandalore was nothing but decaying wasteland completely devoid of anything besides just ash and rubble. This was result of their own chaotic and restless nature. Sabine: “this is what unyielding constant war has done to my home.” What it really seem to take be a mandalorian was just being dangerous sociopath who doesn’t know how to act and is completely devoid of heart and soul. Kanan: “what is with you mandalorians?! You act as if you can’t even survive two seconds without developing the urge to start viciously firing your blasters at a wall!” Just look at the great mandalorian war when they tried to take over the galaxy. Their history is really not that complex, it’s all just chaos and mayhem and destruction and murder and hooliganism and nothing else. “Peace, friendship, compassion”. Mandalorians probably don’t even know the meaning of such words. Mindless hooligans who attack anything, even each other. “Why are the mandalorians attacking these people and are trying to kill each other all the time? No reason, it’s just how they are and is what they do.” The mandalorian people are the very personification of a loose cannon. A mandalorian: “when I get home, I think I’ll go kill my husband and kids just because I feel it.” They are absolutely the most violent and destructive and chaotic culture in the entire galaxy. At the top of the list. No other race or culture to rival their insanity.
