He never really fails at anything. Everyone he meets befriends him, even people he was initially on bad terms with. People help him, even if they don't really have a reason to. He pulls off amazing feats without any prior practice.

Seems like a lot of the same things that people hate Rey for.

You're such a boring characterless entity. Try getting laid once in a while and maybe you'll have friends and find out what a "joke" is. - derrate

Eh it's a tv show. The stakes aren't high in shows like this, which is why main characters never die. Not every show has to be like GoT.

All protagonists have plot armor. Not a Sue only trait.

He took down a TIE Fighter the first time he put a jetpack on. He either gets in small fights with everyone and befriends them afterwards (Cara, Ahsoka, Boba Fett) or seriously screws someone over and still befriends them later (Fennec, Mayfeld). When he was stuck on that ice planet with the spiders, those X-Wing pilots saved him and helped him out, even though they were hunting him earlier.

The Mandalorian should be louder, angrier, and have access to a time machine.

Honestly, Mando is good but he often skate by on wearing super armor that allows him not to die when anyone else would be dead.

He did fight off all those pirates in last week's episode without his armor or any of his weapons.

Lucky for him the foes only used spears and not blasters.

reminder that the original Mary Sue actually died.

Failure doesnt disqualify someone from being a Mary Sue, if that failure is just used to facilitate more jerking off to how great and special the character is.

Im speaking purely in theory, though. Ive never seen the Mandible >_>
