Following 4 little introductory short mini episodes this is the first full episode and is actually a double episode. We get the meeting between Ezra Bridger, scavenger youth, and the crew of rebels who steal from Imperial forces. Kanan, Hera, Zeb and Chopper are introduced as characters well and Ezra has the intriguing introduction as we see that he has the force.
The animation in this first season is a little below the standards of Clone Wars sadly and there are bits that are a bit cartoonish but overall it shows great potential from the start with nice characters, fun action and a promising Jedi power story.
There is huge rewatch value in Rebels and watching this back is even better than the first time.
The moment Kanan reveals his power is spine tinglingly emotional. Great stuff.
Very enjoyable first episode with a great start with Darth Vader giving dark instructions to his agent 'The Grand Inquisitor'. The second part is even better and really sets up the series well.
Very good opening to the season.
My rating: Part One - 8/10, Part 2 - 9/10. Overall 8.5/10.
