Must See Clone Wars Episodes

So you want to watch Fives' canon? (Of course you do) He appears only in The Clone Wars cartoon, which of the time of writing this, is available on Disney+ in the US and the UK.

You can choose to watch the whole show in broadcast order, from the movie through the 7 seasons, or you can watch the episodes in sequential order, that is the order they were meant to be broadcast and what amounts to chronological order from the canon. This list is available here.

The show is long and complex and follows many different and varied characters through a number of plot threads. If you are only interested in Fives, you can focus on just a few episodes:

Prologue: Hidden Enemy

Fives does not feature in this, but it provides an introduction to his brothers Rex and Cody and gives some insight into the lives of Clones.

Rising through the Ranks

Fives' journey from Cadet to ARC Trooper. Introduces Domino Squad, Fives' batch, and his place within the clone army. The Deserter again does not feature Fives, but is an important clone focused episode.

Not a clone-centric arc, but an important one for Fives as he goes with Anakin, Ahsoka and Obi-Wan to rescue a Jedi from an inpenetrable prison.

Fives' final arc, as the illness of one of his brothers leads him to discover one of the darkest secrets in the Republic.

6.02 -- Conspiracy Watch on Disney Plus
6.03 -- Fugitive Watch on Disney Plus

Errata: The Bad Batch

The first arc from season 7 does not feature Fives except in memory, but it does feature a call back to the Domino Squad, and an emotional hook that relies on Fives. I like to think that had the series not been cancelled when it was, this arc would have taken place before the Conspiracy arc and feature Fives in the role that Rex plays.

7.01 -- The Bad Batch Watch on Disney Plus
7.02 -- A Distant Echo Watch on Disney Plus
7.03 -- On the Wings of Keeradaks Watch on Disney Plus

Epilogue: Fives' Legacy

The final arc of the series is important if you want to see how Fives' life and actions have important ramifications in the wider Star Wars Galaxy long after his story should have ended. Get your tissues.
