Watched Maul:Shadow Lord loved it was a slow burn Tech Noir/Neo -Noir taking inspiration from Anime 1995's Ghost In The Shell ,Akira and Cyberpunk Edgerunners it was very cyberpunk-esque as Janix is that also amazing dynamic between Maul and Devon, Witwer and Aldon brought also amazing performances from the mentor types Moura contiuned from his epic performance From Puss In Boots:The Last Wish as Captain Lawson basically a Deckard/K Type of character and a better version of Syril Karn from Andor also cool seeing Haysbert reprise his role as Daki many speculate his from The High Republic Era also a great Jedi Mentor in the vein of Old Ben Kenobi as well Yoda From the Original Trilogy Loved the series didnt pull any punches also a forray into Star Wars adult animation which was awesome . Also The action is very calculated as well John Wick-Esque even with Lightsabers. I think Star Wars is fine post-Andor . Maul is the Most Iconic Villains along With Vader . Showrunning by Dave Filoni(Star Wars Ahsoka) & Matt Michnovertz(Star Wars : Jedi Fallen Order ), Producing by Athena Yvette-Portillo (Star Wars:Tales Of The Empire) , based on Star Wars Created By George Lucas, Score By Kevin Kiner(Peacemaker) and The Kiners(Tales Of The Underworld) Maul Shadow Lord doesnt Pull any Punches also taking inspiration from Greats of Anime in This Slow Burn Tech-Noir/Neo-Noir Thriller 8.5/10
