There’s no connection in the narrative, it’s simply a possibility that the training helmets MIGHT be made of the same material since it would offer a beginner in lightsaber combat some protection.

I think he implied it works like the youngling helmets not that they were made from it.
If Vernestra was his master, it would make sense why he said he was a Jedi a really long long time ago. Maybe he was a Jedi when Sol was a youngling
I thought for sure you'd mention the performance Lee Jung-jae gave. Watch his face. When Sol loses control for a moment, you can visually see him re-center himself, and drive out his emotions. He's a Jedi, after all.

For #7, I think Sol's grief to his team suddenly came out when he said, "There's been a...". Jedi is not allowed to be too emotional. He had to say something made him less emotional.
Come to the dark side, we have cookies 😉
So, this is where Jason went in the final episode of The Good Place
i wonder if the cortosis lining the cave/mine that Qimir lives in protects him from being found. the cortosis would block any force detection going in and block Qimir's force from emitting out.
I agree that Sol found out at that time also. Because Mae said he fooled all of us and Osha doesn't know Qimir like that.
The beginning of the knights of Ren. He doesn't want to be a Jedi or a Sith. Awesome 🤘
NGL if Qimir took me to some planet and showed off his body like that I'd turn to the dark side too.

The fact that this videos is basically just as long as the actual episode is honestly my biggest complaint about star wars. I just watched a whole hour episode of the boys right before watching the acolyte, and I just feel like all the star wars shows just end to quickly
would it make sense Qimir was trained by the Witches? he just seems way too skilled to learn all that on his own…

The title of "Teach/Corrupt". Is such a cool title. Because this episode Qimir is teaching Osha more about things. While Sol has become Corrupt through the dark side because of Brendok
Now we need a female sith nude scene, you know, to balance the Force. We've seen Kylo's chest, Yord's chest and Qimir's back and chest. I mean, it's only fair.
sol telling the jedi his whole team was dead reminded me of tom cruise in mission impossible screaming THEY'RE DEAD THEY'RE ALL DEAD
I feel like their energy together this episode was giving lowkey romantic or like flirtatious or maybe it just comes off that way because he is attractive
But he KILLED my favorite JEDI with that darkside BUFF body. 😅

I think it was Tenebres/Plaqueis who gave him those whips, when he killed his 7 acolytes
Sceilig Mhichíl is an island off the coast of Ireland not “The British Isles”
MAUL WAS WRONG. NOW we know the Sith revealed themselves to the Jedi much earlier than previously known. 😊
Im really enjoying this.
I was happy that they included the knowledge of Jedi Burial.I remember in the Clone wars where they had the jedi buried in the temple itself. I actually screamed "period" when sol shot Mae.
From what I remember there was 20 Jedi who left the order. Could it be that the Qimir was a padawan that was presumed dead after some encounter? He could take being left for dead as abandonment and it made his fall easy.
Am I the only one that thinks that looks more like Force lightning than the whip? You can see the lightning branches.

20:56 Yes this beautiful cinematic art in Rogue One movie 😋 That nice moment in Beautiful The Acolyte S01E06 is similar as you said 🙂
the cortosis being welded is an interesting point because we’ve seen in the thrawn books (the cannon ones) that they also absorb blaster bolts so we can assume it’s not just kyber. my thought is that there was some sort of solder used we didn’t see and that those cracks then would then become weak points unless the metal was either melted down or reforged.

also the note about the younglings helmets i don’t believe he was eluding that the younglings helmets were cortosis as much and he meant that it deprived the user of their vision thus making them reliant of the force to guide them.
I mean... I think lack of Sith butt was a missed opportunity. That being said, I was wondering if they were on Achtoo. The location was gorgeous though. Also, Bazil's antics were hilarious. Animals in the same order or even family or genus can be very different size wise.
Qimir is SOLS kid that he had to give up or did not know about
