- TriviaFirst time in a series or film that the process of bleeding a kyber crystal is shown, the only other time the bleeding process has been seen on screen was when the fallen Jedi Dagan Gera's (who was from the High Republic era) rage and hatred corrupted his kyber crystal while he was dueling former Padawan Cal Kestis in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor (2023). The reason ligthsabers carried by the Sith and Dark Jedi are red is because the kyber crystal has been corrupted by the dark side of the Force, a dark side adept uses the Force to bend the crystal to their will, this process changes the color of the crystal to red. The canon comic book "Darth Vader" reveals that when a Sith Lord makes their first lightsaber they must kill a Jedi in combat and take the crystal from their lightsaber and bleed it to use as their own, which is why the Stranger tasked Mae to kill a Jedi without using a weapon. The canon novel "Ahsoka" (2016) also reveals that the light side of the Force can "heal" a red kyber crystal and remove the corruption, turning the crystal's color white. Which is why Ahsoka Tano's lightsabers in Star Wars: Rebels (2014), The Mandalorian (2019) & Ahsoka (2023) have white blades, she took the kyber crystals from an Inquisitor's lightsaber after defeating him in a duel and healed them with the light side and used them in her newly constructed sabers.
- GoofsWhen Sol killed Mae and Osha's mother he did so because it appeared she was trying to absorb Mae's life force into hers, Mae could even be seen beginning to vanish. He thought she was killing Mae, yet he doesn't explain this to either of the sisters. He tells them he did it to protect them but without explaining what Mae's mother was doing, or at least what he thought she was doing, his claim of protecting them doesn't make as much sense.
- Quotes
Senator Rayencourt: You don't like me. You think my campaign for an external review of the Jedi is a personal vendetta.
Vernestra Rwoh: If you want my honest opinion, yes.
Senator Rayencourt: Good. Here's mine. I think the Jedi are a massive system of unchecked power, posing as a religion, a delusional cult that claims to control the uncontrollable.
Vernestra Rwoh: We don't control the Force.
Senator Rayencourt: Not the Force. Your emotions. You project an imagine of goodness and restraint, but it's only a matter of time before one of you snaps. And when, not 'if', that happens, who will be strong enough to stop him?
Vernestra Rwoh: That's certainly an opinion, and not one shared by the rest of the Senate.
Senator Rayencourt: The majority of my colleagues can't imagine a galaxy without the Jedi. And I can understand why. When you're looking up to heroes, you don't have to face what's right in front of you.

In the end there was no mystery here, apart from how this rubbish was ever greenlit.
As I may have mentioned before. I'm not really a Star Wars fan, more of a Trekkie. So I never view it as a fanboy, especially the toxic kind that froths like a mad bovine on YouTube.
The finale is an incoherent mess and I dread to think there could be a second season of this garbage.
Sol is a rubbish Jedi, it's like he passed as a Jedi master because someone felt sorry for him. He gets the basics wrong and that means explaining to Osha and Mae how their mother really died.
The Acolyte has no good guys. Osha and Mae have effectively gone over to the dark side. The Jedi are also lying, deceitful monsters. No wonder Senator Rayencourt has their number.
