Thanks for the praise, guys, but I still think I need to make another extended review to make it up for the break I've had from reviewing episodes. Here you go!
I was a bit surprised when at the beginning of the episode, it said that this episode was in memory of Akira Kuwosawa (I think that's how you spell it), the director of the popular movie "The Seven Samurai". That movie was also the basis for the idea of the movie "The Magnificent Seven", which is one of my favourite Westerns. The story is pretty much the same, but with an exciting and classic Star Wars twist to it. The opening action sequence with Anakin's ship getting damaged was fun, especially when Ahsoka and Obi-Wan made some hilarious remarks in the background. I loved when Ahsoka said, "He always blames the ship!" and Obi-Wan's argument with Anakin on the ground was some of the best comedic dialogue yet. The villagers that they met in the village not much later were sweet and harmless at first, but I agree with Eric Goldman that Dilonni, the "But we are just simple farmers!" guy, was annoying. That brings me to the bounty hunters of the episode, obviously why the episode was given the title it had. Sugi was the leader, with a bit of purple hair in the middle of her scalp and lots of horns sticking out of her head. She was cool and proved to be just like Anakin, either bugging him or arguing with him. Rudi Paramita was Sugi's second in command, and also the tallest of the group. She had the smallest amount of dialogue as well as the smallest part, and I do wonder why she is the only bounty hunter in the group with a surname. Seripas was another cool character, who looked really cool in his suit. That's right, people, that six foot hunk 'o' metal is actually a suit worn by a little alien no taller than Yoda. Ahsoka's line, "You don't have to look tough to be tough" was more meaningful that many people will take it (it was said so fast and Seripas did not reply to her comment). And that brings me to my favourite bounty hunter of the group, Embo, who was super cool and was actually voiced by Director Dave Filoni himself! The way he used his hat as both a weapon and a defensive tool was neat, and his deep voice suited the character well. Another thing to mention, this episode featured the return of Hondo Ohnaka, the pirate from the popular two-part season 1 storyline featuring Dooku Captured and The Gungan General. He fought Anakin very well and was great with a MagnaStaff (or whatever it was called). I'm glad that Hondo is getting his episodes, because he keeps escaping, just like Bane. Everyone should clap and the quality of this episode, because I'm sure it will be a top episode for many.
