As much as I’ve loved the Umbaran arc (it was nothing short of fantastic) my favorite thing on the show has always been Anakin’s struggle and his relationship with Ahsoka. It adds delicate undertones to the story told in the movies and every adventure I see him on in The Clone Wars makes Revenge of the Sith that much more heartbreaking.
This story, involving the slave trade, is sure to hit close to home to Anakin, and it will be fascinating to see how he deals with it.
From the press release:
The Jedi uncover that despicable slavers are behind the sudden disappearance of an entire colony of people on the planet Kiros. Obi-Wan must face the imposing Zygerrian leader in a knuckle-crunching fistfight, while Anakin and Ahsoka rush to defuse a series of bombs planted throughout the colony. It’s a race against time in “Kidnapped,” a new episode of Star Wars: The Clone Wars, airing at 8:00 p.m. ET/PT Friday, November 25th on Cartoon Network.
Here’s a second clip from the show:
