Thoughts: I did not know what to expect from this episode. I only knew the little bit from the preview at the end of the last episode. "Bounty" was great! It was even better than last week's awesome episode. Ventress had great character development this episode also. The plot was well balanced with amazing action, character development, and original plot. The hand-to-hand combat in this episode was fantastic! I have not seen anything like it on The Clone Wars until now. Although there has been some hand-to-hand combat this is far and beyond what has been done before. The animation was very fluent and realistic with the movements. Boba Fett was particularly awesome in the episode with some great action scenes and his new look, which was briefly shown in the episode "Deception", is a few years older, he is starting to look more like a Clone Trooper. The Bounty Hunters in the episode were with returning favorites like Dengar and Bossk and some other new Bounty Hunters. The scene with Ventress in the Cantina when the bounty hunter walked up to her and tried to flirt with her and then she gave him a Lightsaber were no man wants ones. It was awesome yet painful to watch. The fight on the train was amazing using mostly hand-to-hand combat and Bobo with duel Mandalorian blasters, jumping around blasting the "Ninjas". The "Ninjas" in the episode was really cool, with their energy blades and use of hand-to-hand fighting style. It was a nice change of pace from the normal Lightsaber battles or blaster shoot-out. The female Bounty Hunter with the green tentacle things was very unique and her fighting style was especially interesting. The ending was a nice twist with prisoner being held in the box. I was not completely surprised but it was a good plot twist. The ending of the episode with Ventress' quote "I have a future, was a very satisfying ending to a great episode. I am not sure what is going to become of her in future episodes. This did just about everything right and was even better than last week's awesome episode. Next week's episode should be awesome! With the return of Darth Maul and Savage Opress!



The Good: Excellent hand-to-hand combat, Unquie plot, Improved animation, Great voice acting, Perfect character devolpment for Ventress,

The Bad:






Plot: 10/10- The pacing was great with action and character deployment. The idea of Ventress having to work with Bounty Hunters was especially great.



Action: 10/10- Although there has been some hand-to-hand combat in The Clone Wars this is by far the best I have seen. It was like watching a Martial Arts movie.

Acting: 10/10- Ventress' voice actor really stepped it up a notch this episode and Daniel Logan as Boba Fett was great also, even better than the previous episodes he was in.

Art Style: 10/10- The animation really impressed me this episode. The fluentness of the fight scenes was much better than normal.



Overall: 10/10- This is again the best episode since "Carnage of Krell".



Closing Comments: After this I hope the next episodes in the story arc can keep up the great pace and quality of episodes as the last two.
