I think she was roughly 12-13 at the beginning of her training with Anakin. I'd say she was late teens-early 20's by the end of CW. In her 30's/early 40's for Rebels.
I'd place her between 45-50. Which works, since Rosario is 42. Plus her species probably ages differently anyway.

I was reminded of this rewatching S2 of Mando last week. There are fun parts, and a few episodes are outright good, but almost every episode is a back door pilot with the exact same plot. Mando arrives somewhere, meets a cameo character soon to get their own show, he needs something they could provide with little to no effort, they refuse unless he does something outrageous and difficult, and then cameo character yells at an antagonist about whatever the focus of their show will be.
Mando to Vanth:
“Give me the armor. My people have an ancestral claim to it.”
“Only if you kill a dragon bigger than a football field.”
Mando to Bo-Katan:
“Do you know any Jedi?”
“Yes.”
“Will you tell me? By creed you should help me.”
“Help me in my personal crusade to get back my toy.”
“Where is the Darksaber?!”
Mando to Asohka:
“Will you train him?”
“No.”
“Will you tell me who can?”
“No. But I can tell you where to go.”
“Okay, great.”
“After you help me fight this lady.”
“Where is Thrawn?!”
Mando to Greef Karga and Cara Dune:
“My ship needs fixing.”
“Help us take out this Imperial facility.”
“Gee, Cara Dune, you’d be a real swell Ranger of the Republic…unless you made some unsavory comparisons on social media, of course.”

We should start laying out a timeline to see which episode belongs to which show and in which order it has to be watched. I remember those lists from the comic book crossovers in the 1990s/2000s. I guess things will get even worse with the Ahsoka show. I suppose this will be the case with every show set in the same timeline. Obi-Wan will most certainly crossover with Ahsoka and Andor with Obi-Wan.

I had the same idea today and here it is. That is fantastic! I love it! Whoever you are, please do this with every life-action Bane scene from now on!

The repetitive task to get to the final destination is total Filoni troupe. I think it's why they brought in Favreau to help try to level it out to some degree.
It happened in CW and Rebels a lot. I can even admit, that 80% of those episodes were on while I was doing something else, because they were on another fuel run. But I did like when they finally got to the meat of the story. S4 of Rebels is some of the best SW in my opinion, but I loved the force animals. Not a lot of people do, I think it was a neat addition...*shoulder shrug* If the force is in "everything", it makes sense.

Dang you! You tricked me! I'm like scrolling, thinking 'where is it?'
I think you're hoping for something that will never happen. You're hoping, even secretly, that the ST will somehow be erased by "this" Luke. That any new content with him will wash the bad taste of the ST from your mind. Until those movies are erased (and frankly I doubt they ever will be) no matter what they do with Luke, he still ends up the coward from that trilogy. That's my point. If continuity matters to you, you'll still arrive at the same destination. This point seems to be lost on a lot of fans, even those I am in agreement with about the ST as being utterly worthless trash.
That said, as far as my love of the trilogy goes, it took me some time to recognize what specifically I wanted from this content. I read most of the EU back in the 90s because at that age I consumed anything Star Wars, but I've outgrown that type of fandom and having more doesn't always equate to fulfillment. Then I watched the Prequels, and then gave TFA, then Rogue One, then TLJ a chance. That's when I cut my ties. I skipped the rest. So I put my money where my convictions were and sold off what little official merchandise I had other than a few essentials.
After constant questioning from well meaning friends I gave Mando a shot. Season one showed real promise, and then it became cameo of the week. It wasn't for me because they weren't willing to believe in their original characters enough to let them stand on their own, which is why I even gave it a chance in the first place. You ask, how I could live with myself and not feel like a hypocrite? I got to see it for free. I didn't give Disney a dime, and when I saw what was coming down the pike I just said nope, I'm good, and left. People truly understimate the power they hold as consumers.
So you ask, why would I bother posting in the forums if my fandom is "done?" Just because I only like the OT and the story is over, it doesn't mean I shouldn't stop loving it. Nor does it mean I can't have an opinion on something I'm passionate about. Plus writing and intellectual discussion is how I process information, and I get to talk with friends so that's a win in my book. Star Wars has never stopped exciting me and just because the story ended (for me) doesn't mean that inspiration ended. In fact I think that's what everyone has been chasing since. Inspiration.
Ultimately each person has to decide what they want from their content and how each person defines their "fandom" is going to vary. I just feel that we need to be honest with each other and more importantly honest with ourselves.

If they were going to resurrect fett I wish they'd done it during the time of the Empire, could have been good to see him on the trail of an adversary, crossing swords with other bounty hunters in his attempts to stake his claim.
Would have kept him dark and I think more in line with what I think people would have wanted.

I’ve mellowed out on it with some time, but my expectations (or maybe hopes) were running high after S1, and with a few exceptions S2 felt a little flatter in writing and a little too focused on the new shows they wanted Mando to prop up (which frankly, I’d rather not every new SW show take place at the same time and be so interconnected). I’ve come to enjoy about half of the Vanth episode, the frog lady episode, I appreciate some of the ideas but not necessarily the execution of E3, same for E4, E5 felt like waste of time, E6 felt like a fan film, E7 was perfect and one of the best pieces of SW content in a long time, and E8 was just okay.

Same premise as The Incredible Hulk

But should modern episodic content be given a pass on weak storytelling just because a TV show from the 70s or a serial from the 30s and 40s did the same thing?

Sebastian Stan Says 'Never Say Never' About Playing Luke Skywalker - IGN
Star Wars fans want to see Sebastian Stan as a young Luke Skywalker. Now, the 39-year-old Marvel actor says 'Never say never'.
I've wanted this from day one. But they have a long history of deep faking older/dead actors in SW and now they hired Shamook. Unfortunately this is but a dream.
He would have given a great performance and my stance on Luke would have probably drastically changed.
