I just hoped this one Star Wars story didn't end up being taken over by the Empire or First Order. Kind of like Boba except with better writing and stories. Nope we get a "bridge" to another Empire vs series.
Same old same.
But Mandalorians go back thousands of years and are linked to the rise of the jedi
There would be no reason to anticipate that a story about one or many of them wouldn’t be deeply tied to SW mythos
