Rebels never really stopped being about a small band of rebels from Lothal. But it very much became about a galaxy rising against the Empire. All tied together with the themes of family and not being alone even when you feel small and overmatched.
The Mandalorian has very much been similar thus far. It has it's own characters and themes, but it is expanding it's world to include big picture stuff in this second season. If it can be as successful at using the big picture concepts in service to it's own plans, we're in for a treat.
