Must Watch Star Wars Rebels Episodes Before Watching Ahsoka

The Star Wars Rebels story continues in the live action Ahsoka series, so here is a list of must watch Star Wars Rebels episodes!

The new live action series might be called Ahsoka, but it is very much a continuation of the animated series, Star Wars Rebels. It not only features many of the same characters, it continues the story that was left hanging at the end of season four. 

While you don’t necessarily need to watch Rebels before watching Ahsoka, you will be missing out on a lot of the heart and emotion behind the drive the characters have. We know that four seasons of television is a lot to get through, so here are our recommendations of must watch Star Wars Rebels episodes to get you started (but then watch the whole series when you have time).

Must Watch Star Wars Rebels Episodes Before Watching Ahsoka

This might seem like a lot of episodes to get through, but they are all available on Disney+ and when you turn on Ahsoka, trust us, you will be happy that you have seen them.

Hera, Sabine, Chopper, and even Ezra are heavily featured and discussed in Ahsoka, so if you want to get to know them, their dynamic, and what they have been through, these are the episodes to watch. Zeb has already made a brief appearance in The Mandalorian, so one can hope he will show up in Ahsoka as well.
