@supersigma93 5,My original post was aimed at people in Japan who jokingly claim that "Episodes VII–IX don't exist," while praising The Mandalorian. Criticizing the sequels is perfectly fine. Denying their place in the saga is another matter.
@supersigma93 4,I agree that either can be enjoyed on its own. In fact, every Star Wars installment can be enjoyed independently. But that doesn't mean they are unrelated or disconnected from the larger story.
@supersigma93 Of course, either can be enjoyed on its own. But my point is about people who praise Mandalorian while rejecting the sequels, not merely criticizing them. Grogu's connection to the Necromancer project shows how Mandalorian builds on the sequels, both narratively and thematically.
