{{spoilers}}
*Mando/Din Djarin is a cool protagonist and Pedro Pascal manages to play him really well despite having his face hidden behind a helmet most of the time
*For that matter, most of the main cast do a great job of acting behind their helmets. 
*Baby Yoda/The Child/Grogu
*IG-11 
*Moff Gideon, played by Giancarlo Esposito of Breaking Bad-fame, as the main villain
*Several good strong female characters, from returning favorites like Bo-Katan to newcomers like Cara Dune.
*Fennec Shand- Played by Ming-Na Wen, who you probably know from the OG Mulan. Everyone thought she would be a one off assassin cameo, but had multiple extended action sequences and bad ass moments. Furthermore, the actress is plenty badass herself - one need only look at her physical stance in combat scenes to see that she clearly knows her shit, basically making her [[Awesome|Lady John Wick in Space]]. Appears more in the Bad Batch, and in the future, the Book of Boba Fett
*Mando's ship, the Razor Crest. May she rest in peace. 
*To whit, Jon Favreau had several of the spacecraft used in the series be built as miniatures to be used in shots, various behind-the-scenes accompanying footage available on Disney+ confirms this.
*Callbacks to Mandalorian-related things from [[Star Wars:The Clone Wars]] and [[Star Wars:Rebels]]
*Live action debut of Ahsoka Tano. 
*Return of Boba Fett. He is a Mandalorian and the thing about Almec saying Fetts aren't Mandalorian in TCW (he was clearly biased against them due to his position) is now set to rest.
*Worldbuilding
*Redesign of TIE Fighter with folding wings
*Brings aspects from the old EU into Disney Canon
*Shows that the Empire didn't just disappear overnight and that there are still remnants out there. 
*Clearly made by people who love and understand Star Wars. 
*Stormtroopers are actually hitting shit and have some cool moments. Some are still incompetent but most are pretty decent fighters. Death Troopers too make an appearance, and manage to demonstrate themselves as outclassing the rank-and-file stormtrooper, conveying their status as the elite imperial troopers they're reputed to be. That said, as with the stormtroopers, they don't fare too well once stood up against more capable combatants, and simply can't hold a candle to Mandalorians. 
*Dark Troopers. If you thought all battledroids are just cannon fodder relying on their numbers to win, think again. Dark Troopers are basically [[Necrons|Terminators]] and can be genuinely terrifying. Not only are they blaster-proof, they can also fly using rocket boosters.
*Tons and tons of fan service. 
*Actually does a good job of showing how to do strong female characters, and never falling into the lazy, obnoxious, pandering, seen in the sequels. 
*Luke Skywalker makes an appearance, not the old grumpy disillusioned jedi, Jake Skywalker, we saw in The Last Jedi, but Grandmaster Luke Skywalker him-motherfucking-self in one of, if not the best sequences in the entire series. If this was Disney testing the waters, gauging audience hunger for a possible retconning of the god-awful sequels, then they probably got some encouraging results. 
*The new Stormtroopers in the Season 3 climax who are basically Imperial Mandalorians
**The Praetorian Guards showing up to a more positive response than in TLJ, and actually getting to beat one of the heroes this time around.
*Gideon's Beskar Armor suit, which will probably go down in history as one of the most singularly badass villain designs the franchise has ever given us.
*Kelleren Beq, AKA Ahmed Best playing the sort of Star Wars character he should have played from the very beginning. 
*Makes use of some pretty groundbreaking special effects techniques, continuing the Star Wars tradition of trying to push special effects to new levels. Bye bye greenscreens, hello future.  <ref>https://www.starwars.com/news/the-mandalorian-stagecraft-feature</ref>  (see more below)
*Has single-handedly restored hope in the franchise after many had lost it due to the sequel trilogy. 
*Elements of Westerns, Samurai films, Judge Dredd, Kill Bill, and other classics.
