seeing thrawn’s cold calculations in live action is even more terrifying but man was nearly shaking in his boots at the mere mention of anakin skywalker

One of my fav things about star wars is that's its so fucking huge that u physically cannot know all of it so u just kinda like pick a section amd become obsessed. Like me with the Chiss. Like i have seen only one other fandom come even close to this amd that's Marvel. I have no idea y. And we all still bond over the skywalker saga (not the ones that shan't be spoken). And its like we all know a bit of each other sections. Like clone fans know a bit about ahsoka. Ahsoka fans know a bit about the Rebels fans. Rebels fans know about Thrawn. Thrawn fans know some deep shit about Padmes handmaiden and wild space yokels. And it pretty much goes on forever and i find that very cool.

We don’t talk about how unhinged the original thrawn trilogy is nearly enough. I mean we don’t talk about it enough just in general, but specifically the crazy parts. 
I mean, obviously you have Mara Jade’s Luke Skywalker obsession where she’s trying to talk, her self and everyone else into believing she genuinely wants to kill him.  Like, it’s so funny to me how she’s trying to convince herself that something she’s genuinely wants to do and it isn’t just probing from Palpatine. But what’s even funnier is that Luke basically just said “nuh uh.”
Then, of course you have the whole lady Vader thing. Most everything about that is just wild.  Leia is on the verge of being kidnapped and the guy just smells her and he’s like “oh my gosh you smell just like Darth Vader. You must be his kid” and she just rolls with it. I never would’ve thought a book would have me questioning what Vader and Leia smell like, but here we are. 
Not to mention the scene where a very pregnant Leia and Chewbacca hide underneath a table. Thrawn is just there in the room and they are in there the entire time. And I was just thinking he’s going to find them, and then he doesn’t. There’s a 7 foot tall Wookie, a whole human princess, and a gold droid in the room, and he does not notice any of them. Absurd. 
And, of course, my favorite scene is when Mara raw dogs trying to strangle Thrawn. Then, when she tries to force choke him, the effort causes her to lose her breath and give up. Meanwhile, he’s just scolding her like she’s an unruly toddler the entire time. 
This doesn’t even begin to get in everything about Jorouus C’boath. He’s insane, he controls entire armies in his mind, he cloned Luke, because reasons he was obsessed with kidnapping Leia. He pissed off Thrawn multiple times. He’s a lot to deal with. 
This list does not even scratch the surface. Fantastic books, 10 out of 10, no notes.

Cover art by Tsuyoshi Nagano. “Star Wars: The New Essential Chronology,” Japanese edition. February, 2006.
The Japanese edition of “Star Wars: The New Essential Chronology” depicted a saga-spanning collection by artist Tsuyoshi Nagano. In the Christmas 2015 issue of ImagineFX magazine, Nagano had these memories, “I like Mara Jade a lot, so my drawings of her tend to be full body. Her costume was created using the comics as a reference. Grand Admiral Thrawn’s skin and Mara Jade’s lightsaber match, while Qui-Gon Jinn and Yoda’s lightsabers are the same green, to keep the painting engaging.”
