The Mandalorian
Summary
Din Djarin and Grogu got involved in quite a few dangerous undertaking and predicament in season 1 and 2 ofThe Mandalorian , but season 3 pointed out a rank problem with the timeline of the show . The Mandalorianbegan with a lonely bounty huntsman and a child as his target , and they have arise into one of the most iconic don - son duet in all ofStar Wars . Theirupcoming movieThe Mandalorian & Groguwill explore that dynamic further , as Grogu begins his training as a Mandalorian apprentice .
The Mandalorian ’s timeline and historyhas taken Din and Grogu to countless planets and gotten them into countless fight . time of year 1 check them run from bounty hunters and Imperial remnants . Season 2 see them look for other Mandalorians and a Jedi to civilize Grogu . Season 3 see them rejoining the nipper of the Watch and retake Mandalore , but the time between these consequence never made sensory faculty . The Mandalorian ’s timeline could be corrected , but it ’s break as it currently fend - though there may have been one effort in time of year 3 to fix it .
As Star Wars ' first alive - action mechanism TV show , The Mandalorian has grown quite a legacy with gamy praises - & here ’s how all 3 seasons of the show rank .
The Star Wars Timeline Insists The Mandalorian Season 1-2 Happen In One Year
According toStar Wars : Timelines , everything that happened in season 1 and 2 ofThe Mandalorianas well asThe Book of Boba Fetttook blank space in the same year : 9 ABY , or 9 days after the Battle of Yavin , as thein - universeStar Warscalendaris found on that engagement . The trouble with the official timeline is thatit is too unforesightful a time for everything that happened in those seasons to feasibly occur . The characters inThe Mandalorian , as well as the galaxy as a whole , changed drastically in 9 ABY .
That twelvemonth cover everything Din and Grogu went through up to Boba Fett defeating the Pyke Syndicate on Tatooine . This includes Din ’s growth from escort Grogu as just another bounty to welcome him back from his training with Luke , a huge change in their relationship that would have taken quite a bit of metre to nurture . 9 ABY was fix packed with events for the pair and their allies , which make a problem with the larger timeline . However , the show has already plotted out a better timeline with a simple line from time of year 3 .
The Mandalorian Season 3 Confirms “Many Cycles” Have Passed Since Season 1
In time of year 3 , instalment 5 , Din sought help from his folk in rescuing Greef Karga and the major planet of Nevarro from Gorian Shard ’s pirates . While making his case to his fellow Mandalorians , Din mentioned that the Children of the Watch fought the Bounty Hunters ' Guild " many cycle ago,“which would mean the event of time of year 1 took place year prior , as a cycle refers to one stock year . This throwaway line instal a much honest choice to the first two seasons ' timeline job : they did n’t all take place in the same yr .
All the problems withThe Mandalorian ’s truncated timeline would be solve by simply expand the amount of time it lead to accomplish everything they did . time of year 3 already tried to lick the trouble with a individual seam that established a broad timeline , but alternatively the canon timeline features an incredibly eventful class in 9 ABY followed by years of apparently routine development between time of year 2 and 3 . While that rail line could have solved the timeline problem , it really expose just how broken the show ’s timeline has become .
The Mandalorianseason 4 is currently unconfirmed , but Din and Grogu ’s story will continue inThe Mandalorian & Grogu .
After The Mandalorian time of year 3 ’s conclusion in 2023 , the story of The Mandalorian season 4 is shaping up to be one of the show ’s biggest yet .
Din Djarin’s Dialogue Fits Perfectly With Other Evidence From Nevarro
Greef and Cara Dune completely transformed Nevarro between seasons 1 and 3 . What started as a seedy backwater refuge for pirates and H.M.S. Bounty hunters grow into a sparkling bastion of civilization onthe Outer Rim . In time of year 1 , Nevarro was saturnine , foul , rundown , and a generally unsavory place to be . After years of Greef ’s clerical feat and Dune ’s workplace as marshal , the township became bright , welcoming , well - keep back , and safe . The current canonic prison term interruption would explain some of those changes , but they had already made impressive forward motion in rebuild the city by the clock time season 2 took place .
Some of the change carry out in that time included converting the cantina into a schooling , revitalizing the planet ’s condition as a hyperlane port on the Hydian Way , and even transfer to the satellite itself , such as restoring the plant life surrounding the metropolis . Nevarro had basically no public infrastructure to speak of , so Greef had to essentially build a local government from the ground up as well . After being driven out , the miserable State Department the Imperial remnants leave behind Nevarro in would have taken age to reconstruct . transform it into the jewel of the Outer Rim it became would have taken even longer .
The Star Wars Timeline Is Wrong - & The Mandalorian Season 3 Is Right
Star Wars ' canyon has contradicted itself and changedin the past , butThe Mandalorian ’s timeline is a glaring oversight . The show has a huge reach with so many galaxy - neuter events thatit but could n’t all take billet in 9 ABY as the current canyon call . Season 3 present a just , more diffuse - out choice to the timeline , one that makes more sense for the story and its characters and clears up the canon timeline . While explaining how the events of these seasons set into the timeline is the biggest challenge , there is another problem created by such a short time frame .
Between seasons 2 and 3,there were several age when the duo had nothing of billet going on . A case could be made that they were searching for the Children of the Watch ’s concealment , but a premium hunting watch as skilled as Din would n’t necessitate class to find a undivided target , permit alone a large group of blatant Mandalorians . The current timeline has the busiest year imaginable , follow by many cycles of the pair just cool down out . rank season 1 and 2 in the same yr makes it seem like Din was doing nothing for years after Grogu ’s return .
The Mandalorian ’s timeline has quite a few job in the current canon , but time of year 3 could leave the key to posit them . 9 ABY was an excessively eventful year for Din and Grogu , as it embrace all of time of year 1 and 2 of the show . Expanding the canyon timeline ofThe Mandalorianwould solve these trouble , and there is already an explanation in the show itself .
