Chapter 5: The Gunslinger - S1-E5
Other mistake: In the end credits, Troy Kotsur is credited as "Tuskan Raider Scout #1", obviously that should be "Tusken." (00:31:30)
Continuity mistake: Mando obliterates a guy on the roof using his long range rifle. He lowers the weapon, but he's seen lowering it again after the reaction shot on Carl Weathers. (00:27:50)
Continuity mistake: When Mando repossesses the knob, the Child's ears go from straight to floppy in the space of a camera cut. (00:02:30)
Chapter 15: The Believer - S2-E7
Continuity mistake: When Mando faces the third wave of marauders on top of the truck, he punches the first one in the gut after dodging his assault. He disarms the second one, then turn towards the first, that is already weaponless and reeling without having been hit (he was hit in the stomach as he was running past Mando, he wouldn't be facing him standing, some of the fight must have been cut). (00:16:30)
Chapter 15: The Believer - S2-E7
Other mistake: Before the tunnel the truck drivers communicated with the base, and the base itself is warning another vehicle about their speed. Despite this level of monitoring, the heroes board the truck taking their sweet time to change in suits and have friendly banter. Considering the convoys are attacked frequently by terrorists, it's hard to imagine that a large discrepancy of that kind would have stayed unchecked.
Continuity mistake: In the little scene inside the school when Carl Weathers sits the muppet at the desk, the kid extras are not exactly the most disciplined extras available and their positions and what they do change between shots. Examples; look at the Asian kid who is looking at Baby Yoda in a shot and in the next is busy reading her board, or the two girls who talk to each other and point in the first shot, whisper more discreetly in the second. (00:09:05)
Revealing mistake: During the battle with the aliens, Mando throws one to the ground, disarming him, and gets his weapon. He is brandishing that weapon against a second one, but you can see that as they 'fight' (right after the clash that springs sparks) that his adversary stops a strike that Mando is not parrying (obvious miscue), and then in the next cut the weapon is gone entirely. (00:03:00)
Chapter 16: The Rescue - S2-E8
Other mistake: Moff Gideon is holding the Child under the threat of the darksaber. He tells Mando "Drop the blaster." Mando killed the two last enemies with his spear (the second one even choking him with it) and went straight to open the door of the cell, no blaster in hand. (00:20:00)
Chapter 16: The Rescue - S2-E8
Continuity mistake: After the sequence of the Dubstep Troopers charging with tubes bursting free, the all-female team is in a cargo holding. Fennec says "Cover me"; then she advances walking in two entirely different stances between shots. (00:16:00)
Chapter 16: The Rescue - S2-E8
Other mistake: Boba's ion cannons disable, as the shuttle co-pilot mentions "avionics and comms." Yet Boba is able to warn them that they are gonna be boarded. How? (00:02:15)
Chapter 15: The Believer - S2-E7
Continuity mistake: Valin Hess pours a drink to the two troopers. He asks "Where are you from, Brown Eyes" and screws the lid on; look at the quantity of liquid in the bottle. Next shot and it dropped significantly, to the point that barely any is visible anymore in the transparent section of the bottle. (00:25:15)
Chapter 15: The Believer - S2-E7
Continuity mistake: In a semi-comedic moment, Mando throws his blaster at one of the marauders, since it does not work. After the prolonged fight, he slips back into the truck, and when he comes out, he has a new blaster in his holster.
Chapter 15: The Believer - S2-E7
Revealing mistake: The first time we see Imperial troops saluting Bill Burr and Mando from their POV inside the truck, they are using their left arm. A couple cuts later we see that the shot was flipped, since everyone on the bridge, both sides of the truck, is saluting with their right hand. (00:19:00)
Chapter 14: The Tragedy - S2-E6
Continuity mistake: When Boba Fett is talking to Mando and threatening him with Fennec's sniper skills, the weapons behind his back vary in distance from one shot to the next. (00:10:00)
Chapter 14: The Tragedy - S2-E6
Continuity mistake: Mando tells Baby Yoda "You understand, right?"; the knob in the hands of the child is rotated differently.
Revealing mistake: Look at the droid carrying the spear the Magistrate offers to pay Mando with - it moves before she makes a motion for it. (00:12:40)
Continuity mistake: When Mando passes the gate to meet Morgan Elsbeth, the natural light changes in the space of a few steps. (00:11:30)
Continuity mistake: The Magistrate beckons towards her to have a prisoner led to her. She is holding her spear with the left hand and gesturing with the right, but it's the opposite in the next shot. (00:04:20)
Continuity mistake: At the end of the episode, the officer opens a door to meet Moff Gideon. There's a lab technician kneeling in front of Giancarlo Esposito and another one standing while a third on the left is walking across, but in the next shot the leftmost one is already standing perfectly still. (00:33:45)
Continuity mistake: When "Blue" leaves the badge on the table, it at a distance of almost three times its width from the table border. When Cara looks at him going away, you can see the object being much closer to the edge. (00:32:35)
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.
