I’m sorry, but I do not think the writers of this show can turn this version of Kanan into the one we are familiar with in a convincing manner. I said this last season and the sentiment still has not waiver ever since. May be a bit premature, but it is what it is
. I’m supposed to believe this iteration of Kanan will transform into the smothering old deaconess with pillows, son murdering, smiling and killing a niqqa for fun Kanan. The way Kanan is presented in power, I would think he would probably been a lightweight Kenard as a youth, but he’s more so a less spoiled and bratty version of Namond.
Low key, I truly think they are trying desperately too hard to show how Kanan and Tariq are similar through this prequel. Raq and Kanan’s relationship is similar to Tasha and Tariq’s relationship prepackaged retroactively, minus Ghost, Reina, and Yaz.
