The Red Ghost

Asha

 

Writer: Paul Dini

Medium: Television

Air Date: November 30, 1985

Timeline Placement: 1 ABY 

 

An episode of Captain Planet written as an episode of Ewoks. The Ewoks save a kangaroo-goat from Dulok poachers while Wicket helps Princess Kneesaa deal with her family soap opera (described below!). The environmental message is somewhat undercut by Chukha-Trok, the Ewok woodsman from Caravan of Courage, turning into a giant snowball and bowling over some foxes who were just trying to survive the Endor winter. I guess only friendly animals are part of nature.

 

Man, Paul Dini wrote this shit? I guess the poor guy had to make a living somehow before Batman: The Animated Series.

Adaptation of the Ewoks episode "Asha." Wicket finds Princess Kneesaa's long-lost older sister, Asha, who was raised by space wolves after their mother was killed by this horrific apparition:

They don't put him in the book though.

 

Asha torments the Duloks until they stop hunting the local wildlife, then she goes back to the Ewok village to reunite with her father, Chief Chirpa.

This is pointless, just watch the episode.
