But Boba Fett has literally survived in previous canon since the 90s, at least in comics and books. I haven't read Aftermath, but it's hinted that he survived in current canon too.
Frankly, Boba Fett has survived in my own head-canon since I saw RotJ at 9 years old. He was way too much of a badass to die from getting knocked into a pit by a blind man, while wearing a jetpack, and being digested over a thousand years. Unlike Maul and Palpatine, I say he's more likely to have survived than not.
But Maul and Palpatine had space magic. Boba is jusst a dude, right? No space magic.
Plus, Palpatine was obviously going to live given the subject matter between he and Anakin.
yo *pushes glasses higher into eye socket cavities* it’s called the force, not magic
Bringing back Boba feels like a gimmick to me. The first season was so good because it didn't rely on the past to work. It was just a new story set in the same universe.
I hate to tell people too, but Boba was not a character. He had a handful of speaking lines. He's a guy in armor that looked cool and could have done all sorts of cool things, but didn't.

Same as the Mandolorian theen.
They are uusing season 2 to launch spin offs, me thinks.
If he comes back I want the knights of ren and captain phasma back too, those were some missed opportunities on some serious badassery

No space magic? OK, how about him just being a Bad Motorfinger Bounty Hunter! He had the flame shooties, and he can go jetpak-flyin, and the missle on his pack he never had to use... YET! Vader said "No Disintegrations!" Why? He knew he was a Bad Motorfinger Bounty Hunter!
It's called being a mysterious character, and people dig it, and want to find out more about him. Now he's not even a real Mandalorian, in canon. I want to know more backstory about this guy. I've wanted more Boba since I was a kid. George sold him short in the OT. Even his animated segment in the SW Holiday Special was the only cool thing about that, promising he would be a major villain, as he was originally supposed to be. The way I see it, Boba Fett will be like the anti-Mando in the series. I'm so down for the showdown!!!
I knoooow.
They just set him up so well in Empire, with even Vader having to check him, just to have him go out like a turd in Jedi. You would think that someone with a giant missle, flame thrower, and jetpack (and a little skill) could make it out of the Sarlaac. Just saying.

I reckon that’s Asoka in the hooded cloak watching Mando and the child on the dock.

Doesn't look like Rosario Dawson so I would say it isn't
I thought it looked like her, but definitely not the face markings of Ahsoka though.
at first I thought it may have been her but something seemed off, her head seemed too small, maybe it’s Sabine?
