* UnnecessarilyLargeInterior: When Anakin, R2-D2, and the Bad Batch infiltrate the Imperial Escort ship ''Luminous Reign'', this is their first time seeing the interior of an Imperial warship, it almost looks like a small city from their perspective with various walkways and crowds of people moving about. Anakin even uses words like "street" and "alley" to describe the ship's hallways because they are just that large. And keep in mind that the ship in question was an Escort not a capital ship like a Cruiser or Battleship, whose interiors are presumably ''even larger''.

* CallBack: Palpatine says the line "I love democracy" from ''Film/AttackOfTheClones'' at the end of Episode 12 when Padmé proposes to reinstate the position of Supreme Commander as a solution to the Senate's obstruction of military matters and nominates Anakin for the job.
* CatchAndReturn: Obi-Wan's subplot in Episode 12 answers the question of what the Jedi would do if shot at with projectiles that can't be deflected with a lightsaber. Some of the naval armsmen defending the ''Hellsmasher'' try firing plasma guns at the Jedi. The Jedi use the Force to catch the incoming globs of plasma fired from the guns mid-air, then throw the plasma back in the faces of the armsmen.

--->'''Rahm Kota:''' People of Axum, citizens of the Azure Lineage, defenders of the Sapphire Gate into the Core. We have come. We are here, in all our strength, to free you from these killers, madmen, and tyrants. The Jedi Order has come, as promised, to defend the gate. Even now we fight, we wage liberating war against the enemies of our venerable Republic. Enemies which make the pitiful Confederates seem like mynocks in comparison. We will fight and we will die, but we may not be able to do this alone. ''[holds up and activates his lightsaber]'' So I call on you now, honored guardians of the Republic. You whose lineages stretch back to those most ancient of wars, when all that stood between order and chaos was the Sapphire Gate at Axum! You who still honor your histories in shrines within your homes, who care for and look after weapons tens of thousands of years old. Now is the time to use those weapons again, to honor those shrines with service, in place of sentiment. By the end of this day, Axum will be liberated from the Empire. Whether the credit for that liberation goes to the warriors of this worthiest of worlds, is yours to decide. Rise Axum! The Jedi have come, and now, we are waiting.

The Republic counterattack is well underway, and the Second Battle of Axum has begun in earnest. As hundreds of thousands of Imperial forces gather and redeploy towards the besieged Basilica of Salvation, the crews of most of the orbiting ships begin a desperate defense of their sacred vessels.

But the Jedi Order now finds itself unleashed, prepared to reap heinous vengeance for the losses suffered thus far, and for the people of Axum, who suffer under the thrall of Imperial occupation. It will take more than las cannons and near-archeotech to stop several thousand Jedi Knights... but as it just so happens, such things may yet be present on Axum -- or rather, New Cadia as the Imperials have taken to calling it...
