4. What meaning does the Darksaber even hold?

When Moff Gideon revealed the Darksaber at the end of season one, a whole other world of storytelling opened up. When Mando acquired it in season two, it seemed as if a rivalry with Bo-Katan had been established. And yet, this season, Mando merely handed the saber to Bo-Katan—and in “The Return,” Moff Gideon destroyed it. Very little, if any drama, surrounded this formerly very important relic. So we’re left wondering if anyone even cares anymore… and we don’t even mean the Mandalorians, we mean the people making the show. It just became nothing.
