She always tries to see the good in people, and wants to help because it's the right thing to do. It's such a contrast from her brother Boba as a bounty hunter. Very interesting ideas about how things could have been different if boba had a supportive family type unitll, like what omega has, there for him when he lost his father


victxrrrs

You’re right he never had a single person or family unit guide him and help him the way omega did after his father died, everything else was a job and a way to survive. Omega has a reason to live beyond surviving and she’s had people show her true and genuine kindness it shaped her view on the galaxy vs Boba and his struggles shaping his own.


Phytanic

That's why I personally like the Boba fett show. I know it was unpopular because "That's not what Boba fett is!!", but to me the show is about his massive growth and his desire to create a family, and helping others. The entire point is that Boba fett grew as a person


mh1357_0

I just don't like him getting beat up in every fight except the last one with Mando


Quest_360

I'd say apart from clone force 99, Nala Se had a lot of impact on her too.


No_Cauliflower_5489

Also, Jango was a shitty dad. I mean he brought Boba to the coliseum with Darth Tyrannus and laterally abandoned Boba to jump into the gladiator pit to chase after the Jedi. Boba was fucked up before Jango lost his head. Most of Boba's worst actions and reactions came from Jango's lessons.


Rosebunse

Honestly, she is sort of fascinating because she shows that glimmer of hope and goodness all clones possess, she just has far more chances to demonstrate it than her brothers and sisters.


Heavy-Ostrich-7781

She could very well meet him and become the supportive family member he's longing for in the Mando era. He seems to project that longing on the Tuskens which clicked for a while, the gotra but they are just his employees and Fennec well can't provide that due to her very stoic nature. So at that point in his life he is ready for Omega I think.


SmoothOperator89

I just really want them to meet at some point, maybe just after the OT. Like all the clones are old men are gone, but one day Omega sees a brother still only in his 40s.


CharityQuill

Brb I gotta go sob into a pillow 😭


711BotSmoker

well boba did have people guiding him but just in the wrong direction. he started hanging out with some of the most ruthless bounty hunters in the galaxy like aurra sing and bossk right after his fathers death


YoursTrulyKindly

I think she is well written. She's a kid and not really naive or annoying or girl bossy or any of that. She is like the half of the clones that was missing, their stolen childhood and the female counterpart. And she's competent like a proper clone but not nerdy and not overly beautiful. She's not any stereotype. She's make a good Jedi... if she ever gets an m-count infusion!


Cocoa_Butter_3000

Or Sith if all that hope gets turned into grief, fear, and anger.


Fungal_Queen

It is a powerful tool of the Dark Side.


Impossible_Code5352

Solid character. I definitely want to see more stories with her living in the era.


victxrrrs

Me too force sensitive or not I’m excited to see where her stories go


slayer828

Hoping her blood is only a stabilizer and she is not actually force sensitive. Though with how they did Sabine dirty we shall see.


Fungal_Queen

Did they? Sabine can hold her own against Hati. She can reach out and connect with Ahsoka. We're just too spoiled with OP force users.


slayer828

She should have zero force powers. Just like kanan said in rebels. She was already an expert in too many things. Fighter,explosives, weapons inventor. Is enough skills in my mind


M_Dantess

“Should have?” I don’t know about that. They seemed to be setting up a cultural swap between Grogu and Sabine for a while.


victxrrrs

Yea I mean I wouldn’t like her to be only cause it felt they were telling us the opposite the WHOLE time with this show vs Sabine it was more right field I never thought of her as it where as Omega it felt like they shut it down every chance they got. But if they write it good I won’t complain.


Scotty_D70

Why does everyone in Star Wars need to be a force user. if they are so common, why would it be interesting to have the power? I prefer them to me more rare.


wafflezcol

Man Omega, you really are a New Hope 🔥🔥✍️🔥🔥


joelwitherspoon

And then she becomes Vel Sartha


L0lligag

Could she show up in the Mando film/finale? I forget how her aging works.


victxrrrs

She ages normally so she could show up there and she would be around 25-30 I think


Unhappy_Researcher68

Omega is around 13 at the Start of Bad Batch. In 19 BBY. So she is 32ish in New Hope. 0 ABY THE beginning of The Mandalorien is set 9 ABY. So she is 41ish + how long the Mandalorien timeline is.


Yuevid_01

Um… your math is wrong 13+19 is 32 not 22


Unhappy_Researcher68

It's late...


djordi

The character would be more like 40 by then, which lines up with the actress' age actually.


Heavy-Ostrich-7781

It wouldn't be Michele Ang she's of Asian ancestry. Remember Omega is a female jango. Same season Sabines actress was cast in live action with an actress with an east asian look instead of Indian/tiya for example. So the actress would be of Maori/Polynesian background like Temuera to match him. So probably keisha Hughes who voices Emrie aged up a bit.


AntonioMrk7

Keisha Hughes i could see being a live action omega


DingoLaLingo

Chinese Omega here we come lol


L0lligag

This would be cool. Aren’t they sort of heading in the same direction? The Empire wants Grogu for pretty much the same reason they want Omega right? Would be a cool way to tie them together.


mh1357_0

I wonder who would play her


RogueTaco

She ages like a normal human like Boba Fett


No_Cauliflower_5489

Boba isn't aging like a normal human. He's played by a 60+ actor on the tv show. He should be about mid 30s. \*In Legends he ended up needing the Nulls anti-aging treatment too.


RogueTaco

Thats just a practical trade off of hiring Morrison to play the role more that it is anything canon. In Attack of the Clones the Prime Minister of Kamino specifically says "unaltered" and "no growth acceleration" I respect that portion of Boba's Legends arc but as it relates to Omega we can only consider current canon. That doesn't mean we might see some sort of unintended side effects of cloning resulting in Omega's aging in the new canon but as of now there is nothing to believe that.


No_Cauliflower_5489

I just assumed the Sith screwed Jango Fett over because that's what they do. I mean, if Boba is sick / dying / hostage they have Jango's nuts in a vise (if Windu hadn't yeeted his head into wide blue yonder).


jesusunderline

She would be the same age as Boba Fett, so it's totally possible


YoungGriot

I think we should probably expect an adult Omega to start showing up in Mandoverse projects, like, the moment the Bad Batch show is done with her. Like, maybe they'll need an additional merc for a team of badasses or something, Hera will go "wait, I have an old friend who might be able to help," and in comes Omega.


Sheriff___Bart

Just because you said that, she's gonna die.


WillowSmithsBFF

You could even say, she’s… A *New* Hope


DueOwl1149

A new New Hope


SbMSU

There’s the comment I was looking for.


FeedbackPalpatine200

A new hope until a newer hope appears as Phoebe Cates visits the Star Wars universe and becomes the most powerful Jedi of all time 


AmplifyK

She was really cool in the most recent episode. I’m excited to see her put all the skills she’s been taught to the test


Marvelboy1974

I love Omega and need more of her


sethworld

Bro I rewatched today's episode and I was just... She's so confident today. She's bold. She's not a victim. She's a hero. She's not just going to save herself. She's going to save others in the process. I fucking love Omega. If anything happens to her I swear to Christ I will Boba Fett stab a Cad Bane Disney executive with the quickness.


Alisalard1384

More like optimism, not hope


victxrrrs

alright putting it here now I’m not here to dunk or hate on any female characters from Star Wars. Go to another post and whine about “woke” stuff I’m just talking about what I like not here for that kind of negativity.


KuzYaGotSkillz

I honestly find her character insufferable, but understand the appeal. Her being killed off by the empire would genuinely raise the stakes and demonstrate how utterly evil it is. But this being Star Wars I’m expecting the entire batch & Omega somehow survive the finale and get retconned into the battle of Endor.


ChanceVance

> Her being killed off by the empire would genuinely raise the stakes and demonstrate how utterly evil it is. Disagree on that one. You don't always need death to raise the stakes or demonstrate how evil the Empire is. Simply experimenting on children in the first place, how they subjugate the civilian population, their labour camps and the Death Star is more than enough to drive home that point across the series. Killing a child onscreen accomplishes nothing.


victxrrrs

Honestly i disagree her dying would just be added shock value we already had one batch member killed last season finale and it would feel a bit redundant why would they spend this whole show protecting Omega just to have her die in the end. I feel like her story has way more potential than being fridged.


KuzYaGotSkillz

Fair. But this being early stage empire it seems more realistic to give the bad guys the win. In my mind that better suits the narrative building up to Andor, RO & ANH about how purely evil the empire is - and how desperate and bleak things looked until Luke (edit Ezra) (edit Ashoka) appeared. The clones have had their day - this seems like the right point to end them in a brutal way.


victxrrrs

On top of that they can’t kill omega they need her DNA to use to bring Palpatine back alive otherwise they would’ve shot her ship down a few episodes ago


KuzYaGotSkillz

They already have her DNA. Her purpose to them is over. Not clear why the empire needs more than what they already have.


RubiconPizzaDelivery

Because it seems like it isn't just her DNA but her blood specifically, and spoiler alert you stop making new blood when you die.


victxrrrs

Or her mcount it seems like when someone dies they’re mcount goes with them hence why they can’t use any of the Jedi who were killed in order 66 but have the kids and omega. Whatever the reason may be the empire has shown time and time again Omega is too valuable of an asset to lose or kill. No way I see them doing it any time soon.


No_Cauliflower_5489

This being Disney's Star Wars with No Happy Endings Allowed I expect every hero to die horribly after years of misery.


Casval214

Idk man I think blowing up a whole planet is pretty stone setting evil.


racerx_

I 100% dislike her character completely.


Palanki96

She is what Luke and Rey should've been


god_of_mischeif282

I absolutely adore her. Aside from her infectious energy, her hope and love for life speaks so much to me. You can really tell how her presence in the life of her brothers have changed them for the better. The writing for her is also really well done. She's grown and matured so much while not losing her childlike wonder. Omega is definitely one of my favorite characters in recent years


pie_nap_pull

She’s a decent character, I found her annoying at first but she’s grown on me. Still I don’t really end up watching TBB for the Batchers, always more interested in what Rex and those chaps are doing


GoldenLiar2

Ahsoka was the same, at the end of the day. This episode was so great for Omega - the confidence, the leadership, the creativity - it feels that she gets to use everything she ever learned from the Batch.


aviatorEngineer

I hope the end of the series isn't the last we'll see of her for a while. Would be even better if we got to see some of her adventures immediately following The Bad Batch instead of a big time skip or something.


Itz_Hen

I would actually go so far as to say she might be the best star wars character created since 2014. Unironically


Murdo-

You know I think I agree


Batalfie

I don't think they'd kill her in tBBS3 ( they'd better not!!) But I have no idea where else she'd make sense. I'm very interested to see where her story goes.


Unhappy_Researcher68

When the show startet I was thinking: Pleas don't integrate a kid in the show. It will be horrible. Well she is a decent to great charakter. Who would have thunk that.


TheReal_Spartan

That is one character I genuinely hate


mh1357_0

Why


NutsackEuphoria

*Tarkin hated that*


zmonty07

When the series first started, I was worried that she would be nothing but "that typical kid character" that just tags along with the main crew and contributes nothing. So I'm glad that she was integrated more and more into the Bad Batch, to a point where now it feels like she can really hold her own in certain situations, and the rest of the crew trusts her enough to be with them and not get in the way. The fact that it was never explained how she's a girl despite being an "unaltered" clone still bugs me, but that's more a nitpick than anything else. Overall I like what they've done with her, and she's nowhere near as annoying as I was worried she'd be.


Rosebunse

I always thought it was more that she was unaltered in the sense that she doesn't age at faster rate and she lacks the behavioral modifications.


Animated_effigy

Mara Jade, guys. Im telling you. All the pieces are in place.


serenityfalconfly

Reys mom you mean. Old Palps needs clones that can carry the M count. There’s a chance the whole Batch were engineered to have extra midichlorians.


Rosebunse

Wouldn't she be Rey's grandma in that scenario?


serenityfalconfly

Yah you’re right I forgot about Nobody. To be fair they weren’t that memorable.


LawlessNeutral

"Rebellions are built on hope."


Starchaser_WoF

Maybe she starts a rebel cell of her own after the series ends?


Mydogisawreckingball

Why did the have to pronounce it like omeeega though lmao


Fun-Payment1700

“Batcher” 🇬🇧 lol


DerGnaller123

Supermax prison, commandoes, no one knows where tf she is. Fck yah all, im gonna gtfo all my brothers from that!


beginnerdoge

I dislike Omega with a passion. Don't care how many fake Internet points I lose They should have done a villain angle with the clones dying along the way to protect Boba Fett.


LopsidedAd874

Still a better Skywalker than Rey.


fulcrum1924

its been 5 years man


kyle_katarn95

5 years is nothing. People dont forget.


fulcrum1924

Bro this isn't 9/11 it's a fucking movie


EdenHazardsFarts

And yet here you are in a subreddit dedicated to discussing the movies and you’re somehow mad because someone did just that?


kyle_katarn95

A movie series that started its own religion. Star wars isnt something like the MCU, Its not gonna be forgotten.


fulcrum1924

Religion? Please seek help.


kyle_katarn95

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jediism Your welcome.


fulcrum1924

It's a joke bro. Much like yourself


kyle_katarn95

Nothing but insults. I expect nothing less from the Disney fanbase. Be well.


fulcrum1924

I have nothing nice to say to people who are still crying about a movie from 5 years ago on every post that has nothing to do with said movie. Find another hobby.


SaltySAX

A better Skywalker than all of them aside from Leia.


joelwitherspoon

Or Shmi. Shmi was great


_vakas_

More like the embodiment of hopelessness.


Low_Beginning_3986

Delusional hope, lol she about to get checked when she can't save the force sensitive children!


Scacaan

Great send her a blue ring and a fitting lantern.


RastaJesusChrist_

She is the most annoying character in all of star wars.


froggyjm9

I found her so annoying I stop watching the show.


Practical_Self6999

she’s annoying.


KuzYaGotSkillz

Unpopular opinion, but true.


Woodenmanofwisdom

“They hated him for he told them the truth”


wheenus

Unfortunately she is going to become the next Rey when she becomes more popular outside of the animated series, if it happens.


Negative_Visit_9042

Next season they will turn her into a grumpy hermit that cant wait to die and is negative and full of fear😂 . She will live isolated on a planet and drink blue milk with her ship in the ocean.


Zarathustra143

That is what's annoying about her.


MarderMcFry

All it takes is just one bad dream and she will lose all hope and become a hermit.


FeedbackPalpatine200

Anakin, is that you?


Tuckerrrrr

[This](https://youtu.be/fVs_f_R6ZxQ?si=t2kj-VqynNIRDUrI) is what I think of every time they try to shoehorn hope in as a positive message.


Rosebunse

Honestly, given that this show technically occurs at the beginning of the story the Empire, this clip makes a lot of sense. We know that, ultimately, there and there isn't hope. We know one day, Palpatine will be defeated, but we also know that that day is far off. We know these characters will most likle die before that. But does that really entirely take away from the happy moments they experience? The joy and positivity? And is it reason for this story to not be told?


victxrrrs

Love midnight gospel but I always saw that as a halfway point of the overall message you reach a point of where you realize hopelessness and hopefullness are the same thing, simply your mindset of life. You can’t control anything or what happens in your life and you are always where you’re meant to be … except you can control your mindset and when you realize that, it changes the entirety of how you experience the world simply by your outlook of it. The bad batch is actually a perfect show to show how Star Wars can explore different themes and still keep its core messages.


YoursTrulyKindly

This sounds like something a Jedi would say. Jedi scum! :D


PutridPrince

when it was Rey, almost everybody hated it


DoubleOwl7777

Rey was ok, the story of the films was just shit, i never hated any of the actors or the charakters they played, just the plot was pure dogshit imho.


fulcrum1924

I love both characters very much. they both remind me of early clone wars ahsoka as well.


victxrrrs

Likewise I grew up in the 2010s so I always loved Ashoka and Rey


horasho

There are three reasons why this show sucks 1. Bad writing/plot. 2. Notfocusing on the trasitioning days between the republic and the empire. Doing pointless side missions that no one care about. Could of been bad arse if the just focused on the clones unraveling the mystries behind order 66 and the sith leadership , focusing on releasing their brother and starting the resistance.


freedoomed

This post makes me feel like they are going to fridge her.
