"The final arc of four episodes of Clone Wars should have been released as a theatrical film: it's epic, emotional, sinister and unforgettable. Fans like me are calling it ‘one of the best stories of all’, even compared with the movies. Well, this is that film. ‘Star Wars Episode III: The Phantom Apprentice’ takes place parallel to ‘Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith’ and it’s the true closing of the prequel trilogy and the Republic era, before entering the dark period of absolute domination of the Empire (Rebels, The Bad Batch, Obi Wan Kenobi, Solo, Andor, Rogue One...)."

“The story: The Clone Wars are coming to an end. Republic forces are suffering heavy losses and, in the wake of Order 66, Ahsoka, Anakin’s former apprentice, try to survive to the Great Jedi Purge.”

THE CLONE WARS: REFOCUSED presents the entire Clone Wars as a complete series of five seasons of about ten TV-length episodes each. Now structured and presented with the conventions of a more mature modern TV drama, it tells the complete narrative of the Clone Wars, retaining all the most important and enjoyable elements of the show, whilst trimming a vast amount of the weaker content, saving you over 17 hours total while still telling the same core narratives. Episodes have been refined, refocused, reordered and recontextualised to maximise story quality and viewer enjoyment, both for the show’s own complete end-to-end story, and for those seeking a supplement or introduction to new canon like the Mandalorian, Bad Batch, and wider Filoniverse.

Just another ‘Siege of Mandalore’ feature fanedit, cut to my personal tastes, with no changes other than transitions between episodes and a title card for Part II.

Episodes from the 25 best arcs (+2 standalone episodes) are combined to create 27 longer episodes (~40-60m) each presenting a complete, streamlined story without redundant, uninteresting side quests, goofy villains, or childish humor.
