I've read the G5 comics. Not leaving a positive impression after only __TWO__ chapters in...
Seriously, don't these writers have anything more interesting to write about than just focusing the importance of the story on those damn crystals all the time? What about learning more about Sunny Starscout as an individual instead of having her focus too much effort on learning racial stuff about her friends or constantly gushing about the events of G4?
It just goes to show how pointless and wasted of a premise G5 actually is. Just as bad as Disney's Star Wars Fanfic Trilogy where half the runtime is spent tearing down the OT Characters while propping up an undeserving Mary Sue with layers of powerful bullshit Force Abilities with no formal training whatsoever, and ends with her destroying a character that was already dead.
Or Season 1 of Kenobi, where the majority of the runtime is spent not on Kenobi on Tatooine watching over young Luke Skywalker from a distance, but instead on a completely different character that Kenobi fughts against and an Underground Railroad-style plot involving Leia that Kenobi must rescue from the Inquisitors before returning to Tatooine at the end of the season. The producer even admitted that he never even saw Episode III at all before doing the script to Kenobi or seemingly had any editing, direction, or consultation. They didn't even bother to try de-aging Hayden Christiansen when they did a pre-Clone Wars scene with Anakin and Kenobi.
