Continuity mistake: When the widow tells Mando "Please come in", notice the rope she is tying; it reaches barely her waist, but in the next shot it starts off well below her knees. (00:14:25)
Continuity mistake: Back at the tavern, Cara is telling Mando a bit about her history and the peacekeeping duties. During the scene, the light on the table is different; the Child's bowl of soup is either in a spot in the sun or in the dusk. (00:10:05)
Other mistake: Gina Carano charges at the clueless Mandalorian, punches him right in the helmet, then misses him as he reels back against the wall, hitting the wooden boards, and going "Ow." For the rest of the fight she punches his solid steel helmet again several times including the big overhand right that floors him, and HE is the one that gets hurt. (00:09:00)
Revealing mistake: During the whole escape from the bounty hunters scene, everyone is shooting at the protagonist, who is ducking into a baggage tug. Somehow the blaster shots from all those armed men do not make a hole, or even the smallest dent or burn mark onto the cart or its content of boxes and drums. (00:27:00)
Continuity mistake: Mando knocks at the door and grabs the rude TT-8L/Y7 gatekeeper droid, ripping the eye part out entirely, nothing left on the arm. Mando then gets out of the Imperial hideout, he does it from the front door. By the door, but the security device has its eye back, still dangling off a cable. (00:19:55 - 00:24:30)
Continuity mistake: The scientist ducks into cover and the Mandalorian disappears, Batman-style. The position of Dr. Pershing's right hand is different in the last cut. (00:22:10)
Continuity mistake: The Client tosses the fob on the desk. He then fetches the pot of Beskar and puts it on the desk, but the fob changes position. (00:06:05)
Other mistake: To look for the beast wanted by the jawas, the Mandalorian enters the cave and uses a flashlight. But as it was easy to presume, and we see in the following episode, his scope can detect lifeforms and heat signatures even through walls.
Chapter 1: The Mandalorian - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: When Mando steps back from the cannon to look at the destruction he laid, in the close-up the freshly remade pure Beskar pauldron is on the wrong shoulder. (00:33:35)
Chapter 1: The Mandalorian - S1-E1
Revealing mistake: When Mando mows down hostiles with the laser cannon, the leftmost guy on the roof of the second building goes down only well after the gun has gone past his position. (00:33:30)
Chapter 1: The Mandalorian - S1-E1
Other mistake: Mando and the droid have trouble dealing with enemies that pin them down into the doorway overwhelming them with firepower, even before the big machine-gun-like weapon is brought in. Then Mando hops on it, and suddenly all the firepower the enemies had and that had the heroes unable to move is gone, entirely, they can't shoot at him when he's a static target, and actually stick all out like perfect targets leaving their cover.
Other mistake: The weaponsmith is smelting Beskar in a furnace in the first episode and the metal is liquid without any sort of incandescence. In the credits roll of episode 3, the artwork shows it red-hot, and in the season 2 finale we see it actually getting red-hot.
Chapter 1: The Mandalorian - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: Having got the mysterious mission from the Imperial, Mando heads back home to his not-really-so-secretive commune with kids and everything. When he gets in sight of the blacksmith character, he is putting down his long, staff-like weapon. From behind, he is switching it to his left hand, but in the reverse shot he is using his right hand. (00:18:50)
Chapter 1: The Mandalorian - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: When Herzog mentions a "less traditional agreement", the Beskar ingot is gone from Mando's hand (but it's still there in the shots before and after). (00:16:05)
Chapter 1: The Mandalorian - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: When Werner Herzog introduces termination as an option for the subject, the cloth he had the Beskar wrapped in is not creased against the object on his desk any more. (00:16:05)
Chapter 1: The Mandalorian - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: When Mando points his weapons at the Imperials after the Pershing jumpscare, the strap of his rifle is swinging in the wider shots but it rests still against his wrist in a different camera angle. (00:14:50)
Chapter 1: The Mandalorian - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: Imperial hideout. A person enters the room causing (for some reason the bounty hunter is way jumpy over a normal door) Mando to pull his gun(s). When the boss introduces him saying "This is Dr. Pershing", the stormtrooper by the door is lowering his weapon, but he's still pointing it straight at Mando in the reaction shot of the doc. (00:14:50)
Chapter 1: The Mandalorian - S1-E1
Other mistake: Greef Karga is lying out the next possible assignments for Mando. He says that there's "a bail jumper, a bail jumper, another bail jumper, a wanted smuggler." Good, but there are 5 pucks on the table. Who's the extra guy? (00:12:00)
Chapter 1: The Mandalorian - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: Once Mando delivers his trademark "cold/warm" line, the bounty puck changes position on the table. Conversely, his hand position is the same, but delivering the line he had dramatically put it to his holster. (00:03:00)
Chapter 1: The Mandalorian - S1-E1
Revealing mistake: Mando kills the squid dude shutting the door of the cantina by shooting the control switch. The control board bursts into sparks, but all the LEDs are still active and shut down only a second after the direct hit that punched a hole through the box and caused flames. (00:02:25)
Answer: In (non-canon) Legends, Thrawn was the central character of a trilogy of novels by Timothy Zahn. He was a Chiss officer in the Imperial Navy, who rose to the rank of grand admiral despite being non-human. Thrawn was brought into canon in the Star Wars Rebels series, where he commanded the Empire's Seventh Fleet and led the occupation of Lothal, which was opposed by the series' protagonists including Ahsoka Tano. In the final episode of Rebels, the Jedi and Rebel Ezra Bridger commands Purrgil space whales to drag Thrawn's Star Destroyer into hyperspace, jumping to an unknown location with himself and Thrawn on board. The final scene of the series shows Ahsoka Tano and Sabine Wren leaving Lothal to search for Bridger, and presumably Thrawn.
