Bad Batch - Tumblr Posts
I'm not even going to caption this.


Yeah that's it that's the post
thought y'all were joking about the zillo beast eating Hemlock but now it's a 100% real possibility and i'm absolutely losing it & loving it š¤£š¤
I saw a post about them with this quote and it wouldn't leave my head so I offer this (sorry)
Yeah if anything happens to Echo in the finale I will be inconsolable

Force ghost version below the cut

So glad Iām not the only twisted freak weirdo obsessed with a Star Wars in a way that should be studied
Ok respect for the way Nala Se went out and took Rampart with her but I'm never forgiving her for what happened to Fives and Tup
Hunter: Are you free today?
Echo: *glares* No, I'm expensive every day.
*The Batch at Disneyland, in the teacups*
Hunter, Echo, and Crosshair: *spinning a little and talking*
Omega, Wrecker, and Tech: *flying past them, spinning as fast as they can, screaming*
Echo, a few days after joining the squad: Why are you like this??Ā
Crosshair: I used too much "No More Tears" shampoo as a cadet and I haven't felt a single emotion since.
āEntombedā is so funny bc what do you mean this is Hunter reacting to treasure hunting and not the most upsetting news heās ever received in his life

Wow, Nice analysis, I'd also like to point out, that if the Marauder represents Tech, then Hunter lingers longer inside than Wrecker to meet Omega when they meet again. Maybe that heās more willing to let go of Tech to see Omega again while Hunter is still kinda stuck in his head, leaving Techās goggles on a pedestal as a reminder of his failure to protect his family.
Ay that's painful.
I love the attention to detail. Two islands of light. Crosshair on one, the others on the other. They perfectly displayed the huge gap that was created in the first season by Cross. Now he needs to regain the trust of his brothers after almost a year of living apart. From now on, the arc of Crosshair's correction begins in the eyes of the rest of the squad, his rehabilitation begins now and it is not known how soon he will be able to become a full-fledged part of this family again. When they trust him again and accept him as their own.



Omega will most likely help him with this. She was generally a ray of light, a supportive sister who you want to protect. She's the only one who believed in Cross, who trusts him even after all this time. Now that her brother has stopped listening to his demons and has begun his redemption, she must help him become Clone 99 again.
I sincerely hope that his story will not end with his death, otherwise we have already lost one.
Also, when Hunter is looking at Crosshair only the skull half of his face is in the shadows, and when they start arguing later, his face is completely engulfed in Crosshairās shadow. But when they make up, they both face towards the sun shadows behind them.
Perhaps symbolizing they've only been half of Clone Force 99 with Crosshairās shadow looming over them, but now that they've made up they can look towards better times.
Oh my gosh...how did I not notice this??
Y'all remember the lighting Joel Aron (one of the guys that makes the Bad Batch) mentioned regarding Hunter and Crosshair? How symbolic it was gonna be?

The shadows on their faces look like each other's tattoos!!!! šš
I can't even with this!! I'll never recover šš I love this so much!!
I think it's either from the gas that Hemlock created(which is why they both have hand problems) or that it stems from āreconditioningā

I immediately thought of physical damage from the tests but I saw that many of you had PTSD in mind which makes just as much sense. Iād love to hear your thoughts about this.
PLEASE REBLOG FOR BIGGER SAMPLE SIZE AND ADD YOUR OWN IDEAS IF YOU LIKE!
+Cad Band could be the one hunting Omega, like, because he has a long history of ādealingā with Jedi, why not hire this guy to hunt down force-users?
This weeks episode theories āØ š§
So we have two āļø episodes this week!!! āIdentity crisisā and āpoint of no returnā. Letās start with Identity crisis!!!
Identity crisis:
More than likely this is an omega centered episode (based on what she experienced with Ventress). Even though omega is told she isnāt force sensitive I think she finds out that she is. I think it would be interesting if she finds this out in a dream or through a force vision experience (like Luke on Dagobah where he fought the vision of Vader). I do think either Cad Bane or CX-2 (or both) show up as a prelude to the empires presence on pabu. Aka we see omega struggling with her identity and at the same time we see cad bane and CX-2 infiltrate the island. The bad batch have all their attention on fighting off bane that CX-2 is able to do whatever he wants and HE is the one that calls in the empire.


In the trailer I notice that CX is approaching the storm troopers and is not WITH them, thatās why I think he infiltrates the island alone. The house cad bane is in looks kind of like pabu idk. š¤·. Anyway, I do think the empire invading pabu is a cliff hanger at the end of this episode.
I am curious on which CX clone this is. Itās more then likely CX-2 but itās obvious that there are more then 3 shadow clones. I donāt think CX-2 would return to the empire after failing a mission, I think he would be immediately terminated if he did. I think CX-2 being on pabu is him completing the mission. I think the shadow clones pursue a mission until itās completed or they die trying.
It would have been interesting if the injuries and fall CX-2 sustained in the other episodes undid his brainwashing or idk jogged a few brain cells for him to start questioning his purpose and who he was and THAT would be the identity crisis. (Cause Iām like 80% certain itās tech after the early reviews responses lolllll) buuuut I doubt. I think it could be explored in the future tho.
Point of no return:
This whole episode is the invasion of pabu and omega getting taken. I think the āpoint of no returnā is the bad batch joining Rex on his clone rebellion group. It makes sense to me. Like once they join that group there is no going back, they are 100% enemies to the empire. (They always have been in some way, but not to this extent being actual rebels) I say this because the only way theyāre going to find tantis is if they work together with Rex/echo and the other clones. Theyāll need help and Rex and echo need help too. Thatās why we see the batch going on missions. Though I also suspect that phee is working with them on finding all the pabu civilians??? I think they rescue Shep in the trailer.
I am highly HIGHLY suspicious of whether tech comes back or not. I think the most popular topic of discussion at the moment is whether tech is alive or not and some of the reviewers said that many of us would be very happy. Also I think the yellow heart is a little wink Iām not sure.


If tech does come back Iām assuming itās closer to the end of the show. Like OOO SURPRISE Iām no longer brainwashed and hemlock didnāt factor that into his evil plans and now I can help omega escape from the inside muwhahaha iddddkkkk I went from being 50% about him returning to 80%!!!
Iām bringing this back but I really do think he will cause itās The bad batch!!! The theme song has hardly been played and when it has itās been fractured (since tech and echo are gone) I firmly believe that the finale will be the gang all together! THE CALVARY HAS ARRIVED!!!! IDK Iām delusional
The only reaction I can have to this is, Oh Crack. I researched what a split diopter is online too, now I'm just more worried, look:

If you didn't want to read all that, it's to create drama by having the world around the character blur out and focus mostly on them to create drama and to emphasize the characterās reaction to an event or underline their emotional state as the scene unfolds. Since Omega is the main focus in this show and the poster is giving everyone bad vibes(the Hunterās helmet one) I can guess a lot of bad things.
It's Omegaās reaction to Hunterās death. Maybe he self-sacrifices for her maybe when he dies the blood is blurred out like the strawberry picture, maybe it's Tech revealed to be CX-2 coupled with Hunterās death.
It's Omegaās reaction to Tech(I don't think this one is likely)
It's Crosshairās reaction to being in a specific place in Tantiss, maybe he gets a panic attack, maybe he sees evil Tech and knows it's partially his fault.
It's a shot focused on Crosshair trying to make the Shot, the one heās been trying to make since the beginning of S3, like a ricochet one.
This clue really only offers speculation for very bad news. At least for me.

This is so cool.
Exactly my thoughts

Hunter in the finale.

Hera x Omega for @femmefighter š«”š«”š«” happy birthday again my dude shhshshs

Yo guys I am doing headcanon asks woo!!
Send a character in my ask box and I'll give a completely random headcanon that I have for them
Fandoms I know well enough to do this for: My Hero Academia, Spy x Family, Demon Slayer, Brooklyn 99, The Amazing Digital Circus, Dead Plate, Sonic the Hedgehog, The Bad Batch, The Renegades trilogy, Helluva Boss/Hazbin Hotel
Give a headcanon for a character of your choosing from the bad batch
Hmmm
Headcanon for Tech cuz HES NOT DEAD.
Tech has games on his datapad. Most of the time you see him, he is actually doing important stuff on there, but occasionally he will indulge in a little minesweeper or snake. His favourite game installed on his datapad is sudoku tho. Crossshair is the only person he's told about this, and both have sworn to keep the information away from Wrecker. The last thing Tech needs is a man-child nagging him for the games on his phone. Or worse: Wrecker could tell Omega about it, and then Tech would have to deal with TWO children nagging him for games
