Other mistake: Din tracks Grogu down through his chain code and other bounty hunters do the same throughout the series. As stated elsewhere, chain codes were implemented in the year 19 BBY AFTER the end of the Clone Wars and Order 66. We know that Grogu was spirited away from the Jedi Temple during the Slaughtering of the Younglings, so he was already a fugitive by the time they came about. No way they could stop and register him with the Empire while he was on the run from them.
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.
Other mistake: In the first episode, Mando's job appears to get the baby preferably alive, but "proof of termination is also acceptable, for a lower fee." This makes not much sense per se (The Client is shown in the last episode as being subservient to Moff Gideon and he wants the Baby alive), but in the rest of the series it's even worse, since when we see people trying to kill the Child they do it in a suicidal manner (the guy turning his back to Mando to try and axe the kid) or that wouldn't leave a body to retrieve blood from (sniper from distance in 1.4) or any remote proof (pilot that would blow the ship, no ion cannon, in 1.5).
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
Other mistake: The laser cannon punches decent sized holes into the columns and even cuts through the thick metal of the door (and look with what ease), but it is shown hitting the droid at least 4 times never managing to do any visible damage to it. When at the end of the battle they talk about the 'wound', it's not in one of those spots. (00:33:30)
Chapter 1: The Mandalorian - S1-E1
Other mistake: Even if the structure of the door was damaged by the shots shown, Mando, who sprinted to it with remarkable celerity considering he just finished shooting, wouldn't have enough strength to just kick it open (it's visually implied that they took one door each). Needless to say also if the gun was able to punch holes into walls, it should have damaged the unarmored enemies maiming their bodies - obviously it's a limitation due to rating. (00:34:00)
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: 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.
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)
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)
Chapter 6: The Prisoner - S1-E6
Other mistake: Everyone Mando fought with at the ship turns up alive at the end of the episode, but it's shown in the fight with the devil dude that the doors closed all the way and there's no room between the two sets of doors. There's no space for his head not to be popped like a melon. (00:30:00)
Chapter 6: The Prisoner - S1-E6
Other mistake: Since they received a distress signal from a beacon, the X-wings...destroy the station the signal comes from, instantly. Maybe it's better not to ask for help (Notice the fact that they continue to attack it and in the concept art at the end of the episode the station is shown as exploding, not just the gunship they were launching).
Chapter 7: The Reckoning - S1-E7
Other mistake: Kuiil says (and shows in the montage) that the droid had to be taught everything from scratch (takes days of practice to handle a bottle and pour a cup) and has developed a new personality. Yet it is highly skilled in combat as if it could access all the abilities it had when it was a bounty hunter. Either a droid has a 'muscle memory' that needs to be built back from scratch, or it does not. With his master having been in the army as a mechanic, it's strange to say the least that he could make a killer droid out of him, and that the droid can ride with mastery a speeder bike when he never practised it.
Chapter 7: The Reckoning - S1-E7
Other mistake: During the episode, everyone mentions that as a precautionary measure, Cara Dune should cover her arm tattoo that shows her status of (former) shock trooper for the Rebellion. Nobody even remotely mentions the Rebellion tattoo she has on her cheek showing she is a survivor from a planet vaporized by the Empire. It's like going to a Nazi meeting covering your Allied army rank but sporting a Star of David tat on your face. You are not making it much better. Nobody seems to notice though.
Chapter 9: The Marshal - S2-E1
Other mistake: The acid the dragon spits is purported as highly corrosive, literally melting people, however Mando is unaffected by it despite being bathed in it. His armor might be Beskar, but there are plenty of spots (those that his enemies constantly seem to miss) that are not. He should be at least in some discomfort and in need to change, and not carry around his neck a cape soaked in venomous dragon vomit.
Chapter 10: The Passenger - S2-E2
Other mistake: When the Razor Crest is beginning to fall, a shot shows the interior of the ship; the cargo is entirely unsecured and the eggs inside tumble all over the canister with no dampening to their inertia. The motion shown was just a mild tilt of the ship from one side to the other as the ship was about to fall. To imagine the cargo staying intact in those conditions during the manoeuvres shown before, which were tossing the frog lady in the cockpit all over the place, is inconceivable. (00:16:50)
Chapter 10: The Passenger - S2-E2
Other mistake: Mando's ship is crawling with spiders, but the X-wing pilots (who are amazing marksmen, apparently) exterminate every single one of them with their blasters. The ship itself was full of those, a few dozen rifle shots couldn't possibly get rid of them.
Chapter 11: The Heiress - S2-E3
Other mistake: Mando takes off with his jetpack, and we see later that the shore is not too far away...as Mando watches the sunset while his saviours demolish the ship in an explosion. He took his sweet time to get back ashore, especially considering that the Mandalorians mysteriously appeared to save him in seconds and the ship was in the middle of the ocean. (00:13:40)
Chapter 11: The Heiress - S2-E3
Other mistake: Mando's ship is completely devastated, gaping holes in the hull, patched up fuel lines, engines malfunctioning, and on top of that entirely flooded. The Mon Calamari repairs it for 1,000 credits and the protagonist acts like he's been ripped off. When Mando in season 1 turned down the bounty for the guy who missed bail, Greef Karga offered him 5,000 and Mando replied that it does not even cover fuel. As exaggerated as it could have been as a statement (he was complaining and perhaps haggling a bit), and as bad as the repairs prove to be, 1,000 sounds disproportionately small for repairs on massive structural damage AND refuel.
Other mistake: Out of weaponry and with the enemy planes that got a hold of them, all hope is lost for the heroes, even if for some reason the fighters didn't stay behind them to aim but overpassed them. The first TIE fighter that is destroyed when they are saved is shot from the front, but Mando's ship arrives coming from behind them. (00:07:15)
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.
