Ahsoka broke open the right side of his mask, Obi-Wan broke open the left side. Both couldn't bring Anakin back, but Luke was able to completely take his mask off, bringing him back to the light. Very poetic.
This is a stolen comment
I think I am the original commenter for this XD yay I started a comment wave
But Luke didn’t do it Vader did it he told him take it off so that was a choice in both instances of Ahsoka and Obi Wan they forced it and broke through to see Anakin
Just as George intended
@@Nyx-xh6kz Its more likely that me and this person I "stole" from came to the same conclusion. Anyone with intuition can make the same connection my friend.
"I'm sorry Anakin, for all of it" This...this is where the men cry
me too ,i watched a new hope after this and when obiwan pauses after luke asks him "what happened to my father?" hits me harder
not just the men, but the women, and children too
@@whiteass4ssin118 🤣🤣 okay, good one
Men cried when Arthur dies at the end of RDR2. This was pretty underwhelming to be honest...but be Star Wars fans
It’s what made the whole series. The only thing I wanted was Obi and Anakin talking.
I'm truly grateful Kenobi showed Anakin how much he cared about him one final time. Even after everything he had done... As soon as Kenobi's eyes welled with tears I started bawling like a baby.
And I understand now how Obi Wan could not believe that Anakin could never turn back to the light side. He truly thought Anakin had been consumed by evil and was dead while Luke could still sense his father's feelings and conflict. Obi Wan wasn't being merciless and hard hearted towards him as I had thought. He had simply shut off that part of himself that could have sensed Anakin due to what the evil side of Anakin(Vader) told him.
And the shot of the blue light on Vader's face "I am not your failure obi wan" I think this was Anakin talking
Obi wan always cared about anakin. That's the reason why he told luke that vader is the one that destroyed him because he wanted him to keep the good side of him.
@@TheRivrPrncess anakin is officially dead when he choked padme.
@@TheRivrPrncess hence his "obiwan once thought as you do" line to luke in rotj
The ability Hayden has to bring pure rage into Vaders eyes and face is impeccable. Edit: My first 1K comment in like 15yrs on this app thx
Hayden has always been amazing with his facial expressions. Case point: when padme tells Anakin that she's pregnant, there's barely any words, but you can see the joy turn to fear back into joy on his face when he hears the news.
His facial expression acting is seriously one of the best I have ever seen by any actor. Reminds me of young Al Pacino. What a fantastic and underrated actor Hayden is
Yup he is a good actor, only the dialogues he has are terrible.
Hayden is really an underrated actor.
@@maverick8697 And that is more of Lucas's fault than Hayden's.
Dude.. I cried when Obi wan told Anakin he was sorry for everything
same
Not just you. Grown men became babies in that moment
Same dude
We needed it man
I know...I cried too.
What some fans may not realize is Obi-wan was not using his normal defensive style of lightsaber combat He switched back to Ataru the style his old master was teaching him
Oh yea didn’t qui gon teach him form 4 before he died
Whatever the form, it sucked big time!... The entire scene was like watching 2 newbies learning how to fight with a lightsaber.... The orginal star wars battles were soo much better
@@anonymousduh1424 not sure what you're on about because episode 4 - 6 simply did not have good lightsaber fights. And of the prequels, the Phantom Menace is the only one with good lightsaber fights.
@@spartacon5267 that's exactly the point... They didn't have any good lightsaber fights in the series....
@@anonymousduh1424i believe they are talking about the movies
they inadvertently gave eachother exactly what they needed. Obi wan could accept Anakins fall wasn't his fault and Vader was given a rare moment of sympathy
tha was not Vader, it was Anakin for a moment.
Anakin had the hate, Vader was born from it
I feel like Vader telling Obi-Wan that he didn't kill Anakin, but Vader himself did, is the closest thing to kindness that Darth Vader is capable of now... whereas before he used Obi-Wan's regret and sorrow as weapons against him, à la "I am what you made me", he now finally allows Obi-Wan to let go of the guilt of having failed his best friend. Obi-Wan did everything he could for him, but Anakin's choices made it impossible to save him... and deep down, Vader knows it. It was never Obi-Wan's fault. A twisted, harrowing, yet somehow still touching moment. 🖤
Anakin's hunger for victory doesn't allow himself to give Obi-Wan credit for killing Anakin. Also, since he survived the duel, Technically, he was right. Vader killed Anakin. Which as of a New Hope, made Obi-Wan's chat with Luke correct...from a certain point of view of course.
I think its the "remaining anakin part" of vader that's telling kenobi that it isnt his fault and stuff, because for that brief moment, blue light shines on anakin's face, and becomes red again when he says "I'll destroy you".
You have to watch the dave filoni interview. It is kind of obi-wan's fault. Anakin needed a father figure, which qui gon was until he was killed. Look at the obi-wan in this series and compare him to the obi-wan as padawan of qui gon. Two completely different people. He was a cold, detached person then, and when anakin was at his most vunerable, he did not respond w/love and understanding. When anakin dreams of his mother being killed, he blows it off....wtf?? He knew he f**ked up and that is why he saying he is sorry for everything.
I agree. It gave me as a viewer a sort of peace as well... knowing that he doesn't see it deep down as Obi-Wan's fault. Can't stress how amazing this show was to watch.
@@StephenHamilton1971 Obi wan fucked up some parts, but still, everything was Anakin's own doing.
That Scream by Vader When he calls Obi Wan Is definition of His Hatred to Kenobi.
Yepp. Scary
" I HATE CHUUUUU !! "
Not just hatred also desperately begging to finish him off so he can end his pain and suffering if not he will destroy everything on his path just to hunt Obi-Wan down
@@Spurrr notice like in rots his duel with obiwan he charges at obiwan and screams?
Now we just need someone to combine Vaders “OBI WAAAAN!” with Mauls “KENOOOOBIAAAAH!!”
The moment Kenobi looked at Anakin what he made what he is, made us shed a lot of tears
But that's the beauty of that conversation though, Obi-Wan sees Anakin's burnt face, he apoligizes for it but Vader does not blame him. Vader if anything takes the burden that weight on Obi-Wan through all this series, through all this time after Episode 3 away from him by telling him "he's not his failure", that he killed Anakin. And in a way, "from a certain point of view"...that's true. Anakin made his own choices, the wrong ones. He's responsible for his own faith. And one can even question if he's saying this proudly to Obi-Wan, or if somewhere down deep, Vader is openly telling Obi-Wan the fault is his.
Yeah I cried like a baby
I got a tattoo because of it 😢
That line "You didn't kill Anakin, I did" I really FELT Obi-wan's explanation from episode 4 on how Vader killed Anakin. Before it just felt like Obi-wan's clever play on words or turning of phrase about explaining the matter without really explaining it. But I finally FELT IT when Vader said it, I understood.
@JovyRey Fernandez thanks? Is that sarcasm? Sounds a little like sarcasm.
Yes, speaking as someone who in therapy in part due to resentment and bitterness you sometimes without out knowing develop a persona as a coping mechanism. In Anakin's instance this was Vader, notice i say persona not personality. Anakin is still in there, he never truly 'died'. He was just buried so deep in Vader that it took to prospect of having to kill his son for Anakin to be 'strong enough' to combat Vader
*"You didn't kill Anakin Skywalker, I DID"* with his grim smile. It makes me feel scary and sad at the same time.
a nice nod to him in the prequels whenever he did puns ("general grevious, youre shorter than i expected", "well, if it works" line to padme after she calls what he wants is a dictatorship)
Meanwhile in Episode 4: Darth Vader: Hey, Obi-Wan. Obi-Wan: Yes? Darth Vader: Remember the last two fights we had with all the rocks and jumping and cool stuff? Obi-Wan: Yes. Darth Vader: ....we got so old. Obi-Wan: Word.
...
Lmao that is now canon.
Now we finally know what Vader meant when he said “When I left you I was but the learner…” But Obi Wan was always the master, even at the very end. Vader just couldn’t see it until Kenobi force ghosted and showed him one last time
Obi Wan is living rent free
I thought vader said "but now I am the master"
@@christianruiz3685 only a master of evil...
@@christianruiz3685 that’s what he says after he says that….why the fuck would he say “but now I am the master” on its own? Lol how does that sentence even have any context with but at the start of it.
@@gorlab9549 he said "when i left you i was but a learner, now i am the master" its kinda like hes saying "you havent beat me fully obiwan i leanred your lesson you tried to tell in when we sparred when i was your padawan"
It's amazing how all are excited/happy to see Vader's unmasked face, and then all changes to total sadness.
They legit go from total fun to deep depression
It belies an understanding of Anakin and Obi-Wan. Honestly, I'm thankful I'm not the only one this scene fucks up inside....
When Obi-Wan said "Goodbye, Darth," he finally acknowledge that Anakin is finally dead.
"You didn't kill Anakin Skywalker...I did." "He betrayed and murdered your father." We've come full circle.
And calling him Darth after that....really full circle.
Yup. Obi Wan never lied to Luke at all.
“He was weak, and i destroyed him”
@@709mash ….a certain point of view.
Sheeshhhh@@cuumbanana3521
7:58 - We all felt that bro. That hit HARD! 😢 *"You were my brother, Anakin. I loved you."*
When I was watching, I literally thought “man I can’t wait to see how hard Jay cries at this”
@@CJStrongY90 🤣🤣🤣
Vader saying "you didn't kill Anakin Skywalker... I DID" really shows that he has fully in trenched himself into the Darth Vader personality, that even tho that slight bit of anakin was still there Vader's hold over it was just too strong
He's telling obi wan that he completely failed his master, he wants obi wan to finish him.
@@TeddyBen strike me down with all your hatred.
anakin and vader are one in the same luke even says this to him in rotj "the emperor hasnt driven it from you fully"
That final yell of rage… there’s also a sense of great sadness; he’s not only screaming out of hate, he’s screaming in hope of the impossible chance that Kenobi would come back, instead of leave him again. That despite his horrific actions, he could be forgiven. There’s a tiny bit of hope that he stuffed deep into his mind that t they could work things out, that he wouldn’t be abandoned again. That hope died with that scream. That tiny bit of Anakin died with that scream. Now the only bit of humanity left in his black heart was for his son.
That, or he wanted Obi-wan to finish the job.
@@markusstern8059 He definitely wanted Obi-Wan to kill him. He never thought of any redemption until he learned about his son...
And what is beautiful is that his son NEVER gave up on him. That is the sole reason anakin came back at the end. His son believed in him and never gave up, he believed in his father. This is what anakin needed, to finally defeat vader within himself and be redeemed.
@@markusstern8059 that smirk after darth vader said "i did" thou :(
@@dovasquad5228 he was the one person who never gave up on him besides Padme. Obi-Wan, Ahsoka… his closest, most valued people in his life besides his wife… gave up on him and his insistence that Anakin Skywalker was dead. Then his son comes along and absolutely refuses to accept it. The only person still alive that cared about him refused to give up on him, even after he saw the very worst in him. The more this series grows the more beautiful it becomes.
God that scene where Anakin's face is showing and you hear Hayden's voice mixed with James'... I can't imagine any fan of the prequels not getting chills at the very LEAST
Totally understood why this fight played out like this. Makes total sense why Vader and Kenobi's final encounter was totally opposite. The reality is, Vader was terrified of Kenobi.
I think Vader wanted him to kill him
@@kingtrentinius659 Which makes sense because the fact kenobi couldn't do it mostly because of pity made Vader furious.
thats stupid Vader is way stronger than kenobi
@@lolok1099 -- Vader can overpower him, but Kenobi can uno reverse that power to best him.
@@ro4eva Kenobi cannot beat prime Vader also Vader was in a weakened state due to his emotions the emperor said it
And to think, there are mfs out there that really went “Damn this is ass” after watching arguably one of the best scenes/duels in Star Wars history/ever.
this and the mustafar duel are the best and most emotional duels in starwars
@@ethanearly9245 Kenobi and Maul is severely underrated.
@@dafreak117 that one too i almost forgot
For some of the complainers, it's due to KK still being a producer. I'm not kidding. It's sad. Not saying I like her (in fact, I think her contract should probably not be renewed going forward), but, seeing her name in the credits is all it takes for some. It's too bad she lives rent-free in their heads. I loved the final two episodes.
I think the 5th and 6th episodes were really good. The first 4 though were pretty bad. The only big take away out of those episodes was Vader burning Obi-wan. They easily could've made a really good 2 hour movie by cutting all the Reva stuff and other filler
The cinematography and acting from Ewan and Hayden was just *chef’s kiss*. Such a great finale. Im happy if it ends here. It was a great closure for Obi and Ani.
Nah s2 needed
@@lifted-Don how?
@@lifted-Don it wouldnt make any sense
@@jesseaijanaho9186 It actually would, a bit. In the original trilogy, when Obi and Darth Vader meet again, Vader says "When I left YOU..." In this, Obi-Wan is the one who walked away, leaving Vader behind. So it does suggest that there's an encounter between them where Vader is the one leaving Obi-Wan behind before they meet during A New Hope.
@@h3rmesactual bro even this show doesnt make completely sense that new hope line means anakin turning to the dark side in the revenge of the sith
“I’m sorry Anakin. For all of it.” Ripped my heart out too.
Ewan and Hayden in that scene might be the best acting in all of Star Wars. I was bawling like a baby
When Vader says “I’m not your failure” he’s responding to when Obi-Wan said I have failed you Anakin I have failed you. In the final scene of revenge of the sith
Obi-Wan saying sorry, is essentially Obi-Wan begging to have his friend back. This line really helps us understand how much he misses Anakin.
I think this is the first time we’ve seen Vader get genuinely f***ed in a live action duel. I’m not counting episode 6 since Vader didn’t start losing until luke got mad.
which is what vader wanted luke to do. i dont think vader loses to anyone except obiwan because of his emotions towards him.
@@BackS1ap Vader was tired and didn't want to fight back that's why Luke won
@@thetrickster199 Vader didn't want to kill Luke, he was holding back. If Vader wanted to, he would've killed Luke easily.
@@nepamusenopanfilo2560 well Luke went pretty hard on him so I don't know. What most people don't think is that Vader was way weaker in ROTJ than what he used to be
Dude....Vader lost his fight to Kenobi at the end of ROTS....what are you talking about this is the first time Vader got f**ked in a live action fight?
I love the scene when the blue light is on Vaders face, Anakin is very much still there.. holding himself back. Everything that Anakin stood for and and represented were destroyed the night he became "Vader", he was left with the side of himself that he felt was irredeemable, memories of failures/loss. All the things that Anakin stood for and and represented were destroyed by "Vader" not Obi-Wan. Because he is "Irredeemable" he can't come back and is clearly twisted. Anakin came back to tell Obi-Wan it wasn't his fault.
It was Anakin who finally gave up at last and Obi Wan shut off that part of him who could sense Anakin while Luke, upon finding out who his father is, could start sensing Anakin. Maybe now that we know none of Anakin's turning was Obi Wan's fault, some fans with stop saying it was. There really was never any proof of it.
@@TheRivrPrncess Obi Wan was one of a handful of people keeping Anakin grounded. The jedi order as an institution does bear some responsibility. But it is not Obi wans fault.
The Jedi Order bears no responsibility for Anakin's fall. That lies squarely on Anakin and Palpatine.
@@lordofd7111 and yet, who made Anakin spy on the chancellor. Windu knew something was dark about him, and they didn’t tell anakin about it. He was practically bait in ‘Revenge of the Sith’. If he was out with Obi-Wan, things would’ve turned out different; but they denied him that.
@@lordofd7111 That’s not how George and Dave Filoni put it. The Jedi Order are culpable as well.
Oh the Irony 😩 his eyes are blue when he says “Anakin is gone” but that is literally Anakin talking. he literally has to coach himself back into Vader, that’s what we see when we see his Sith eyes become slowly more pronounced until he becomes fully sadistic and starts smiling when he sees he’s breaking Kenobi’s heart all over again. I think he fought that whole fight conflicted/emotional AF and that’s why he lost
He was definitely emotionally compromised during that fight. that's why the emperor called him out on his feelings weakening him.
for real. this episode is probably my favorite of the series
the pain and suffering of Anakin Skywalker. Hayden Christensen truly amazing. Ewan McGregor perfectly potray his role. man it was top teir
34:35 the look on the young lady's face when Darth Vader says "Anakin's gone."... that is the power of a great script and acting. Her heart is actually breaking in that moment... beautiful, human moment of art and emotion...
You have to love how they deliberately mixed Anakin's raspy voice with his mechanical one as he talks to Obi-Wan. The mixture of the two voices along with the crazed look on his former apprentices face probably reminded Obi-Wan of the gravity of his failure as a teacher to Anakin even though it's all Anakin's choice.
loved how he sounds the same way he did when he spoke to luke in rotj like hes catching his breath
@@thepubknight6144 because hes literally catching his breath because of broken respirator?
Good mentors always end up blaming themselves, even if it isn't really their fault.
There will never be a more emotional moment that will compare to this. Never
the duel on mustafar?
@@whiteass4ssin118 It could have been, but it was ruined by too much CGI and worse dialogue
@@benjaminapeterson well they couldnt exactly shoot the scene on an actual lava lake could they lol
@@benjaminapeterson -- Personally, I enjoyed that duel. And now, that duel is given more meaning because of this heartbreaking rematch.
The duel was bad...like hands down stupid and felt like 2 newbies fighting... Only good part was the final dialogue
Anakin was truly the chosen one, he lived up to the prophecy and killed the emperor. Was brought back to the light by Luke.
I love that most of us here agree that sequels never happened. I like you brother
@@strife1431 Palpatine died in that shaft. Anyone who says different is insane.
@@rickeydeblase994 ehhh dark empire books did it amazingly actually explainin g how he lived
actually, Palpatine survived 🙂
Ewan and Hayden brought their fucking A game to this scene. My childhood 😭😂😂
I felt a chill when Vader said “You didn’t kill Anakin Skywalker…I did” and that’s where Obi-Wan got the “Darth Vader betrayed the Jedi and murdered your father “ line.
vader screaming “OBI WAN!!!!!!!” is fucking scary for some reason
Yeah reminds of Maul when he said "Kenobi!!!"
You know what scary apparently Vader was smirking when he said he killed anakin
He was really desperate this time and his voice was mixed with a robot voice
@@tbphillips9649 its like a mixture or rage, pain, and sadness
Anakin finally having the one moment of clarity to acknowledge that he is the way he is now by his own making. The last cryout's he give to Obi-Wan as if he wants him to finish him off right there. Obi-Wan is the only thing in existence he could dump all of his hatred and self-loathing onto other than himself, but it still would never be enough. The anger and anguish in his voice for his last cryout as if almost begging to be done with.
Anakin was literally begging him to end his suffering
well said
That or he didn’t want to be abandoned again.
I do love how the "I will do what I must" at the start of the fight has an almost Sir Alec Guiness tone to it
I was really hoping for Vader to say "you will try."
@@anthonyduran6387 if you hear Ewan's Scottish voice you can tell how much he captured younger Alec Guinness' voice he's an amazing actor
I got to say Anakin Skywalkers story is one of the most sad stories in the franchise and even though he turned it makes you feel sorry for him because he's so blinded by hate and anger I truly believe that he could have been one of the best Jedi ever to walk the planet but he never realized his potential because he was blinded
But he was the best Jedi to ever walk the planet...when he was doing what was right.
@@TheRivrPrncess he was good but what kept him from being the very best ever was his hatred and Obie told him he would be a Padawan until he could get past that and he never did
@@jerseydrive4686 i wouldnt say never, he did in ep. 6 atleast 😅😂
He was to fearful and believed in revenge, something the jedi do not embrace. Anakin was shown to be prerty messed up even before he turned coat and murdered the younglings. He was overly confident, believed in authoritarianism and over all else was selfish. Yeah palpatine manipulated him, but at the end of the day you have to be manipulable to be manipulated. A good person doesnt murder dozens if not hundreds of children all to save 1 person
@Sketch well I was hoping everyone knew what I meant by that but if you want me to change it I'll put universe LOL
When Vader said ‘Anakin is gone, I’am what remains’ I lost it. Then came the apology from Kenobi. Onions were growing in my room at that point.
Hayden hasn't lost his touch with his glare
"If he cuts his mask open, I'm gonna freak!" Trust me, I think we all did. I actually screamed.
I think my favorite part of the fight was how Vader was forced to use both hands to fight instead of going one handed like he always does. Just shows how much of a threat Obi-Wan is to him.
obiwan not only beat prime maul as a padawan he beat prime vader twice and beat maul with ease as a old man....hes the goat
The look of Anakin with the half helmet in the red light is one of the greatest shots I've ever seen. They nailed that.
Seeing Hayden’s face under the mask and his voice is heartbreaking
8:00 now those are some true friends the fact that he made sure his friend was ok when he seen him crying was so freaking wholesome.
Every time Hayden yells it breaks our hearts. Him and Ewan McGregor are phenomenal actors
When Vader sunk the ground beneath Obi Wan I was so waiting for Vader to say the "I have the high ground" back at Obi Wan... This whole episode was revenge of the Sith level and actually had me sobbing. Premo
For me, I look at that part metaphorically. Vader is, literally, attempting to bury the past. Making his old master sink below and be crushed under his hate and rage, but it just doesn't work. He still held some respect and love for his old master deep down in the Anakin part of him, but you can see via the lighting when Vader fully suppresses any love he had for Obi Wan, as the red glow fully bathes his face, and the blue glow of Obi-Wan's lightsaber fades from his own face, representing the hope he had in saving Anakin fully fading away. Him leaving, is him giving up on Anakin, and realizing Darth Vader is the only one inside anymore. Though, as fans, we know there is still some Anakin left, which Luke is able to reveal, and help redeem
We all know we started to almost or actually cried when obiwan said "I'm sorry anakin, for all of it" if ya didn't feel anything from that then you're no true star wars fan from movies 1-6
I started crying at the very first wheeze after the breathing device was damaged 😭
I didn’t cry but I felt very sad inside and it really hit hard
I love how the voice goes from Anakin to Vader. As if slowly transitioning. When Anakin says “I am not your failure” as himself and then the “Obi-Wan” in his mechanical voice, it’s like the transition is going on, only to be completed at the final yell.
The dialogues between Obi Wan & Darth Vader about Anakin Skywalker was so powerful & emotional ! I literally cried my A** off!! 🥲 ………………….Them seeing each other face for last time was heartbreaking. Obi Wan guilt face expression, omg!😢. And Darth Vader yelling of “OBI-WAN!!!!”, that was seriously pure true hatred from Darth to Obi-Wan.
This episode was a love letter to us prequel fans. I cried.
I like how Obi-wan never calls anakin Vader - as if he wouldnt accept his sith name - he speaks to him only by his sith title Darth. This goes all the way to New Hope.
Darth... Anakin
For Ewin McGregor to go from Black Mask to Obi Wan is crazy. Such a talented actor.
34:08 Oscar worthy performance except for the lack of tears
I won’t ever understand why people thought Vader would win. Clearly Anakin remained until his conversation with Kenobi. It wasn’t until then that Vader truly buried Anakin deep inside and let go of his obsession with Kenobi. Now he truly can become Darth Vader.
Well that’s the thing he never really could let go of that side obi being the only person to beat him twice anakin casted everything aside to become better he was always the better jedi but his arrogance and impatient nature is why he would never beat obi wan and I don’t think he can mentally live with it
Maybe because the real Vader is a monster not a crying brat like kylo-ren?. Disney mixed his personality and make him weak and useless. The real vader would have destroyed Obi-Wan. If vader is so useless... Why the jedis are on the run. Just one of them is enough not to win him, but totally humiliate him.
@@lordsnake1988 as vader put it himself obi-wan is no lone jedi. vader is not weak and useless here. he was overwhelmed by obi-wan and his arrogance led to his downfall just like the duel in ep 3
@@whyshouldi9786 Yeah there’s no question about who’s more powerful. Of course it’s Anakin/Vader. But his emotions and attachment to Obi Wan plus his arrogance were his downfall. Just like with Luke. And just before he finished Ahsoka. Only those three were able to land hits on him that could take him out of the fight.
@@zuhayrali4202 actually at this point vader was weaker. obi-wan is at his absolute strongest and vader still hasnt reached his peak.
Amazing scene, I don't know how many times I've re-watched it. So sad and tragic, their acting was off the charts.
This ending was amazing. I love how everyone goes from "woooow" and whopping and loving it to just....silence and tears. God this was well made.
Skills over Rage. "Much more you have to learn, Padawan." The Dark Force Rage Shout was a good ending scene.
I love how ever single fight between Vader and Kenobi ends in absolute frustration for Vader.
One of the most emotional scenes in all of SWs...Hayden and Ewan are incredible
Hayden even says Obi-Wan exactly like James Earl Jones he did a spot on Vader
Obi Wan went from the negotiator to the "you want to challenge my belief in the force" real quick.
I loved seeing that! He is one of the most peaceful and humble Jedi that ever lived, he earned himself a nickname of Negotiator, because fight is always the last option on his list but...when there is no other choice and he has to fight, he is such a badass! He is so powerful and skilled, yet he rarely uses his powers. He is the complite opposite of Anakin, who was arrogant and always wanted to show that he was the best.
@@martanowak5312 And Anakin's "The hero of no fear" nickname he got from being a fierce General in the clone wars and that adds to Obiwan telling Luke he was a "cunning warrior " in ANH
An interesting thing I noted while watching the show in therm of symbolism. It's all about why the Imperial March was only played in the end. Basically what we are seeing is the final transition between Anakin and Vader, the complete fall. We can especially see symbolic elements during the last two duels between the two, the first where Vader burns Obi-Wan like he was burned on Mustafar and the second where he literally buries his past symbolic self by burying his old master. We see again that shifting duality and death in the scene where the mask is cut through and we see Anakin's face under the mask, the slice in it symbolizing the divide of the man at that moment. The blue light mirrors the last dying embers of the man giving peace to Obi-Wan by telling him basically that it isn't his fault, then the light shift to red and we see the absolute death of the hero, and only rage and Vader remains. Same with his voice, turning back to a more Anakin-like version, where he is more present than the voice modulator in tones, but the shift as he yells "Obi-Wan" twice, first less modulated toward Vader's machinelike sound and finally nearly all machine and warth. This is why the Imperial March only plays at the end, because during the rest of the show, there was still a part of Anakin in his actions, culminating with him fully assuming the role of Vader and forsaking Obi-Wan completely for Palpatine. I bet I missed elements, the symbolism of those scenes is INSANE.
I think what's most heart breaking about it is that after Obi-Wan damaged the mask Darth sounded more like an injured Anakin than Darth Vader. Then he basically absolves Obi-Wan of the guilt for Anakin turning to the dark side.
The progress Obi Wan has made im 6 episodes, from a broken man to this… incredible.
The 7:40 reaction got me right in the feels, reminds me of how it was watching the episode for the first time. You're cheering and wanting the fight to end with vader getting his mask broken. But when it happens, you don't feel like there's a victory. You feel just as sorry as obi wan does. Maybe more?
Never thought Star Wars could make grown man cries 😭
When he says "I am not your failure, Obi-Wan." That's Anakin forgiving Obi Wan because that's the last bit of Anakin that's left. He gave one final cry out before the darkness took over.
and a nice call back to rots when obi wan tells him "i have failed you anakin"
Even in victory, Obi-wan chooses the way of the Jedi... sparing his defeated opponent with the knowledge that leaving at that moment will just make Vader want to chase him all the more, and keep him distracted from other survivors. It's not a perfect solution, but it's the Jedi path; to protect life, not to take it... after all, Anakin is apparently already dead. If he had killed him, Anakin would never have had the chance to be saved by Luke, while the Emperor might have simply replaced him with one of his many back-up enforcers. Even when the playing field is level, Obi-Wan Kenobi has the high ground. 😔
That last sentence LMAO
That, and the fact that he could never bring himself to kill Vader, even if he's convinced he's irredeemable. Plus Anakin was still the chosen one, so the force naturally kept him alive to later be redeemed.
I like your comment, but I'm not hitting the thumbs up since it's already on 66 and I don't want to mess with that number 😂
@@reca2489 I respect that. 😌
this has got to be one of the most tragic fights in all of star wars, it hurt so much knowing what they've been through together and how close they were
The "Im Sorry" was so genuine. Like when someone was so speechless with horror or shock or straight up heartbreak they cant think of anything truly to say. I was fine until i heard him say that in the show. Then my eyes just watered instantly.
the bit were Obi Wan really fucks up Anakin till his breathing becomes laborious and wheezy was very much like when Luke was laying into him in ROTJ. It made me emotional for some reason.
I teared up when Obi Wan said the "I'm sorry, for all of it" line. It seems like Anakin was back for a brief moment when he told Obi Wan he was not his failure. But then Vader had to come back almost right away.
When Anakin says: im not your failure, you didnt kill Anakin😭😭, you know that was 100% Anakin trying to relieve the guilt from Obi-Wan. This battle was epic!
No he only wants to give credit to himself for killing anakin
When you think about it, Anakin was never really able to defeat Obi-Wan, regardless of him either being a jedi / padawan back then up until him being with the Dark side.
A part of me will believe there was a tiny piece of Anakin left & purposefully freed Obi-Wan (his brother) from his pain by taking responsibility for his “death”
7:58...this scene broke that dude down! Lol! He was really crying hard!
I love the way his boy puts a hand on him instead of laughing at him💪🏻
@@blawman42, yeah, he felt his pain. Lol! That's some childhood love, right there. Dude saw Star Wars, and had some dreams! Lol!
@@blawman42 right a great friend
You.... Didn't kill.... Anakin.... Skywalker.... *I DID.* 🔴♠️🔴
The most heartbreaking is when you hear one sentence “I’m not your failure, Obi-wan” and it sounds more like Hayden/Anakin than Darth Vader in that moment than others. That being said just being able to hear Hayden/Anakin or what remains of his voice was just so awesome with all the distortion!
Ewan McGreggor's performance is amazing.
To be honest I kinda understand why Darth Vader didn't say "I have the high ground." And that's because that would've been coming from Anakin and not Vader. The more and more I watch this fight the more understanding I have of why he didn't say it cause don't get me wrong I wanted him to say it too. But yeah just thought I'd put that out there.
I wanted him to say it for meme purposes ALONE. Wouldve been hysterical honestly.
There's also that the "high ground" exchange was less about Obi-Wan winning and more Anakin completely owning himself (and proving Obi-Wan did not, in fact, underestimate him)
I agree. Although I would have liked Vader saying just "it's over, Obi-Wan...", since using the high ground line would have been very petty, although legendary. I think it all was done perfectly on this duel, including the music. Is much darker and tragic than Battle of the Heroes and Duel of Fates, and it fits perfectly the context
When he said anakin I lost it. This scene is so heartbreaking.
4:55 - "...uhnkay" - best reaction Ive ever heard
8:26 i love how they joking around about rocks and than the next second they cry haha.
That's scene when they talk to each other get me into tears all the time I watch it. Can't stop tearing because they went through so much together 😢.
14:19 It’s over Obi-Wan. I HAVE THE HIGH GROUND!
I wanted it so bad for the meme content alone
I wonder if a part of Anakin/Vader wanted his former master to end it once and for all instead of just leaving him there in pieces again.
Yes. Hence why he told him in Episode 3 that he should have killed him when he had the chance. He wanted Obi-Wan to come back and finish the job, but also not to leave him there like that.
I heard somewhere that anakin was supposed to beg for death in episode 3 but obiwan denied him that.
Ngl I had chills because of how you can hear anakin and Vaders voice as he talks with the mask half off
I'm a grown man, I'm well into my 40's but last night I was balling like a baby over this
Honestly when Vader starts to loose the fight I felt sorry for him especially during Obi Wan's cut to his back and his fall to the ground.
That's why it was such a great fight and scene! You root for Obi Wan to win but once he beats Vader you feel sorry for Vader, even though he murdered so many people...one of the best scenes in the Star Wars in my opinion. By the way, that cut to the back could have been a killing blow, but it was obvious Oni Wan didn't want to kill him and knew the fight was over once he destroyed Vader's breathing support. He only wanted to stop him so he wouldn't be able to follow him.
You see a hint of a smile when Vader says he killed Anakin. Maybe its just me, but I feel like I can see a hint of Pennywise from It in that smile. A perfect display of the twisted evil under the mask.
Obi Wan used Anakins moves against Vader, Showing that the master can learn from the apprentice while also showing how different Vader and Anakin truly are.
Literally had grown ups crying I swear to god this was such an indescribable feeling
Waited years to see them slug it out, and as much as I'm more of an Empire guy seeing Kenobi bring an ass whooping was epic. The saber changing colour , the epic feel of the duel, the hurt in Kenobis eyes. Brilliant, epic scene. Series was a slow build at first but bloody hell that was awesome.
Vader’s scream is beautiful. I can hear Hayden Christensen, Matt Lanter, and James Earl Jones.l in it.!He’s screaming out for Obi-wan to come back and put him out of his misery. Now he has to go back to his misery at the hands of the Emperor.
Notice the smile Anakin gives when he says he killed Anakin Skywalker... Then it goes away when he's says he'll kill Obi-Wan. The subtlety is beautiful.
Can we take a moment to wonder what the grand inquisitor was thinking after picking Vader up knowing Vader could f him up.
