The Mandalorian Season 3 Finale Explained: What’s the Giant Beast?

The Mythosaur made its appearance right before the end of The Mandalorian Season 3 finale, much to everyone’s surprise.

The last installment in The Mandalorian Season 3 was a ride for Din Djarin and Grogu, who had a lot on their plate as they dealt with Moff Gideon and the Praetorian Guard in a thrilling clash. When the dust settled, and our heroes managed to save their lives, The Armorer “baptized” Grogu in the Living Waters in the mines of Mandalore, where Din Grogu — his new name as a Mandalorian apprentice — waken up the mythological creature known as the mythosaur.

What’s the Mythosaur

The mythosaur is a dragon-like creature that has become an important symbol of strength and power for the Mandalorian people in Star Wars. The beast has incredible powers and its hide is so tough that it can resist blaster fire. According to the legend, Mandalore the Great tamed and rode a mythosaur, which had a lair in the mines of Mandalore, the same place where Mandalorians extracted their precious beskar. Even during the events of the rise and fall of the Empire, warriors such as Boba Fett displayed a mythosaur skull emblem on their armor.

In “Chapter 24: The Return,” the mythosaur briefly appeared after Grogu bathed in the Living Waters on Mandalore. Din Djarin’s apprentice had already demonstrated an affinity for the Force and a strong connection with other creatures. In the Season 3 finale, he just reached out to the mythosaur, apparently using the Force, which awakened the creature. Fans already saw Grogu has a special bond with certain animals, and he’s also resorting to the Force to protect Din Djarin, like when he saved Mando from a Mudhorn in the second episode of the first season. That was also the first time the show teased Grogu’s powerful connection with the Force. Most importantly, he seems to be able to tame animals when they’re enraged, like when he put to sleep Boba Fett’s rancor in The Book of Boba Fett finale.

When Did the Mythosaur First Appear?

The mythosaur first appeared in The Mandalorian Season 3 Episode 2. In “Chapter 18: The Mines of Mandalore,” Djarin achieved his goal of bathing in the Living Waters. The journey there was full of perils, and the titular hero needed to ask for Bo-Katan’s help. After saving her fellow Mandalorian from an obstinate robot, Bo-Katan offered to lead Djarin to the Living Waters. Once there, Djarin took a bath while reciting the words of the Creed of the Mandalore to purify himself from the sin of having removed his helmet in front of others. Suddenly, Djarin fell, and Bo-Katan dove to save him into the deep waters. Djarin looked to have passed away, but Bo-Katan could see a horn and the keen eye of the mythosaur while resurfacing.

The Mandalorian had already mentioned the legendary creature before when Ugnaught Kuiil needed to motivate Djarin during his training to ride blurrgs, reminding him that his ancestors rode mythosaurs. The Armorer also mentioned it in The Book of Boba Fett when she told Djarin that a mythosaur rising would herald a “new age of Mandalore.” Apparently, that time has finally come.
