Violence

The episodes include fantasy violence that is like other Star Wars films and series.

Characters are sliced and stabbed by lightsabers. Some characters are choked with the “force”. Characters shoot each other with blasters that shoot lasers.

There is one scene where two characters are in a lightsaber fight and one of them is suddenly stabbed through their stomach. It is brief and no wound detail is shown. Although it is low level, it may shock some viewers.

There are fast-paced scenes of spaceships chasing and shooting each other. These scenes include explosions.

During fights, sometimes characters punch and kick each other.

Content that may disturb

Some troopers are brought back to life and turn into zombies. They groan, move and attack characters in a zombie like manner.

In one scene, while a character is being strangled by a zombie trooper, the bottom half of their broken mask reveals their mouth. We see their rotting flesh and deteriorating teeth. Although this is brief, it may be disturbing for some viewers.
