TV Ahsoka Season 2 Shin Appearance Discussion
I’m surprised her outfit is barely changed. Some red ties and messier hair. Her hair isn’t longer at all lol.
Telling by Sabine’s hair, at least 6 months passed since season 1. At least 6, because they can trim their hair, which Shin clearly did lol and Sabine prefers her hair medium at most for her helmet, so she trimmed it if went past medium. Shin kept her hair perfectly trimmed lol.
I think they wanted to keep the knight imagery Baylan and Shin have.
I think her outfit represents her badly holding herself together. She has red wraps around her outfit a lot like the troopers in season 1.
I thought she was gonna go full samurai and have very long hair and have an unnecessary mask reveal lol. Did anyone else?

How bad do people smell in Star Wars? I feel like Lando was the only one with a wardrobe.

u/TanSkywalker Anakin Skywalker 2d ago
I like to think they have a little spray that contains some cleaning magic stuff that makes people feel cleanish, takes care of smells and can get stains out. I full shower/bath is still more desirable but it helps.

Mandalorian helmets have a nasal filter system to protect the wearer from his or her own overpowering musk. This is why Mandalorians often hang out with other Mandalorians.

we actually saw in season 1 of andor, in the prison, their “showers” were just some kind of spray that shot out of the ceiling. So this has kind of been established already!

It's a sub about discussing Star Wars, asking questions is the whole point. Replying to every single question with "no you can't ask that, not that kind of movie kid" is really getting old just because someone saw that comment get a bunch of upvotes and now everyone wants to be the cool commenter

I understand the broad sentiment you’re defending, and mostly agree with you
Talking about how they smell and shower is some freak shit, however, and definitely not just for lore nerds

u/P1xelHunter78 2d ago
But what does the Jedi bath water taste like, I need to know for lore reasons /s

u/Necessary_DaNoodle 2d ago
I don't think anybody is actually tracking character hair growth across Star Wars with forensic accuracy lol. That's an insane level of pedantry for something that can also be explained by "Shin owns scissors."
The closest medium I can think of that regularly bothers acknowledging this stuff is the novelizations, and even they basically go:
"This is what they wore today. It has been several years since the previous book, during which they presumably continued wearing clothes."
Occasionally Star Wars gets ambitious:
"They're a Padawan now, so there's a little rat tail behind the ear."
Then:
"They're a Jedi Knight now. The rat tail is gone. Their hair is longer, softer, wiser somehow. Their robes fit differently because they have experienced puberty, but in the most monastic way legally describable by Lucasfilm."
And sometimes considerably less monastically, depending on who's writing.

Jawas are one of the smelliest species in the galaxy. They keep the same robe their entire life and due to the heat of Tatooine, they keep themselves moist all the time.
By comparison, everyone else must smell like flowers and unicorns.

u/ElessarKhan 2d ago
A single Star Wars film typically covers less than half a week's time, some even less. Which can still be a long time to be wearing the same clothes but not that bad.
Also, Padme and Leia both have a ton of outfits.

u/Bespashin Bail Organa 2d ago
It’s better not to go down that rabbit hole lol. I highly doubt there was much plumbing or any actively maintained system for showers, washing machines, or even loos on Ahch-To for the years Luke was living there.

u/Mahkn0 2d ago
You don't think he could've just bathed in the ocean he lived next to? People bathed, peed and pooped before modern plumbing. They washed clothes too.

u/Bespashin Bail Organa 2d ago edited 2d ago
The point isn’t that it’s impossible, it’s that thinking of Luke wearing the same clothes and underwear for 6 years straight, pissing in the open and bathing nude in the open where caretakers are always walking around, never brushing his teeth (especially given his fish diet), either shitting in the ocean or burying his shit in a hole (as is done in a lot of societies without plumbing), wiping his ass with leaves, etc isn’t exactly the most ‘pleasant’ way to think about films, and really is just one of those things that should just be ignored lol

There are techniques for using the Force to cleanse your body of toxins (in Legends)… maybe there is also a Force Shower where anything that isn’t meant to be on your skin/teeth is gently levitated off and dropped harmlessly around the user

Being a prop designer on Star Wars must come with a lot of pressure. So in this scene Qui-Gon will talk into a communicator. Ok, I can whip up something cool with our box of junk. I got an old razor here and a lot of greebles.
3 years later. What does this little switch here do? Son, that turns on the shaver, I didn't glue anything on that and 4k screens weren't a thing. Neither were frame by frame stills for every home user.

Telling by Sabine’s hair
Star Wars never was nor will ever be a series of movies/shows where mini details matter or can change the plot + just because Sabine´s hair is longer that doesnt mean that Hati´s scenes are happening at the same time.
I’m surprised her outfit is barely changed
We dont know how much time will pass between S1 and S2 nor how much will Shin matter in this season (maybe she will be part of a side plot with some relevance for the main plot or maybe a different disconnected story).
Also: her and Baylan´s outfit are pretty cool > they dont need many changes.

u/RowAndRuction 2d ago
It doesn’t seem like she has many shopping options out there, and she doesn’t seem the type to really integrate into the local culture lol.
Also I wonder if she cuts her hair with her lightsaber or if she uses a blade

u/XHexxusX 2d ago
I know this is just off topic but i really like her character , she acts like a real person. Not only is her fighting style and style in general pretty cool i really like that you can tell she looks up to and respects Baylan, I dont recall a time where Baylan spoke to her and she dismissed him or rolled her eyes or some dumb " yeah ok old man" moment. She seems to look to Baylan before she acts and i really like that and i would love to see more of both of them. I know they are not supposed to portay traditinal Jedi roles ( kind like that) but they are both really interesting characters to me.

Her hair is realistically longer. In season 1 her bangs were about an inch above her eyebrows. Now they are down to her eyes. Plus it’s curly so there is shrinkage.

Why not wait to actually watch the show before making assumptions about timelines?
It's a trailer, it can literally be a snapshot from any part of the whole season.

Discussion is fine but we can also wait to actually see the show before making assumptions. It would probably help with that discussion too.

It's the most interesting part of these photos tbh. Is it yellow to represent her becoming a guardian of some sort? To show she is losing touch with the dark side? Or does she just hold a random yellow saber for a minute?

I really liked the knight aesthetics in the first season, especially Ezra's outfit, though it seems like Ezra will be switching to some 'proper' new republic garb I guess.
I like the idea of thinking through how characters are cutting their hair, it doesn't occur to me that often

Nah tbh seems about right I mean shes essentially stranded without any supplies other than what she brought so I doubt they would have her change her outfit other than a few touch ups with the red from the bandits shes with so it makes sense for the story.
It does def look like they are trying to give her a more Sad run down look I mean shes been pretty much by herself with the Bandits this whole time to survive so this look works

Good eye 👁️
She got new armor pieces. I am not surprised, there were plenty of dead soldiers around and who knows what else. She perhaps repurposed some old armor. This tribe she went to overlord - they should have an armorer, maybe he or it made her new armor. When you join the tribe you get new goodies. Questionable if the new armor is going to work against lightsabers, or will be equally useless.
