  • Kenobi has turned into The Last Jedi of The Prequels. The show isn't over yet, but the damage is done. Lucasfilm cannot stop VANDELIZING the legacy characters they clearly do not like.

      Yes, I'm in my thirties too and I can see the propaganda/conditioning has been ramped up a lot in the last years, making everything suddenly worse; more woke, less authentic, less creative freedom, even more historically inaccurate, etc. My guess is because of the ESG's all the companies have to consider now. They all got quotas to fill and must portray "the message". I guess CRT and the growing anti-whiteism doesn't help either, making blackwashing of characters a recurring thing. I thought that was racist when white people did it, but appearantly OK when it's done the other way around... Makes you wonder why they think this is a good idea and what they hope will come from it, to piss off their majority population, to piss off the fanbases most likely to buy their crap. Oh well, best to stop giving them money if we can.

      You know whats funny? The whole way that reveal is presented is like the writers are smugly expecting the audience to be shocked…its funny because the reality is that to be shocked by it only speaks to how awful their writing is;
      Reva’s rapid promotions didnt make ANY sense, its like Disney are focusing way too hard on ‘evil’ in the term ‘Evil Empire’.
      “Reva is promoted because she killed her boss. See, its because its an EVIL Empire that knows its EVIL so they reward EVIL behaviour!”
      And then at the reveal that Vader knew all along, the writers are like “Well DUH it makes no sense to be promoted after repeatedly disobeying orders. We fooled you!”
      No you didn’t fool us, we simply have such little faith in your writing ability that we legitimately expected you to forget your own plothole.

      she's definitely going to die, also she survived because of the cybernetic implants. Vader purposely stabbed her in the same place she survived in before. Obi-Wan hasn't lifted a saber in 10 years and Vader has a suit that gives him basically super strength. Surviving doesn't make a Mary sue, defeating easily does.

    Reva's story would be pretty good if it ended in episode 5 with her dead. It would be a cautionary tale about revenge not being in line with the light side of the force.
    Of course, Reva's actually going to be a good guy by season's end, possibly saving all the remaining Jedi, and Luke himself. And she probably put her consciousness into Luke, which is the only reason he saved Vader and killed the Emperor. Or some shit.

    How the series could have gone if the men were as competent in this show as they are in cannon…..
    Reva is brutally tortured by the grand inquisitor in episode 1 for insubordination and he discovers reva’s plan because she is weak and feeble minded.
    Grand inquisitor brings this knowledge to Vader, Vader uses the force to extract memories from reva that reveals the location of force sensitive children.
    Reva is executed by Vader and placed in the fortress inquisitorious along with all the other dead Jedi
    One of the locations of force sensitive kids happens to be on tatooine.
    The inquisitors are dispatched back to tattooine to investigate, they learn of something called “the path”
    Meanwhile, Ben kenobi feels a great disturbance in the force, something is coming that threatens Luke.
    Vader himself has arrived on tattooine.
    Sensing his former padawan, Ben decides that luring Vader away from tattooine is the best way for him keep Luke safe.
    Ben solicits the help of Hondo Onaka to smuggle him to Corellia. A very dangerous choice for kenobi, but also one that could allow him to easily give away his position to Vader and the inquisitors. He also requests many types of high explosives. In exchange, kenobi will help Hondo retrieve precious coaxium.
    Kenobi intentionally gives away his position by sabotaging imperial shipping yards. Probe droids pick up images of this Jedi with the blue lightsaber, long hair and beard. During this time, kenobi retrieves coaxium and instructs Hondo on where to wait for him to exfiltrate the area
    The images of kenobi are sent to Vader while he and the inquisitors are interrogating persons of interest on tattooine. To this point, they have found evidence for the path but need more to find out where the location of the force sensitive children are
    Vader is overcome with anger when he sees kenobi. He immediately drops the investigation and commands his inquisitors to follow him to corellia and eliminate kenobi.
    Vader and the inquisitors arrive on corellia, kenobi has taken to hiding in the sewers (where we get a short cameo of a child Han Solo)
    Kenobi taps into the force, he reaches out to his padawan in his mind, and Vader answers.
    This leads Vader down into the sewers just as kenobi wanted. In the bottom of a sewer shaft, there stands kenobi, with his lightsaber ready.
    A flashback ensues quickly of the scene where obiwan and Anikin sparr with each other. After a few seconds, each lightsaber clash makes the scene cut to their last duel that left anikin burnt to a crisp.
    Vader lashes out and begins quickly trying to overcome obi-wan, but Ben is calm and collected, easily parrying vaders lightsaber attacks. As the battle drags on, Vader starts using the force to throw objects at obiwan. The second sister attempts to kill obiwan from behind, but she is cut down.
    Obiwan uses the force to crush a water pipe that rushes into the sewer, giving him enough cover to escape while Vader flees the sewer himself. Obiwan makes it back to Hondo’s ship who helps him escape.
    Because Kenobi led the inquisitors away from tattooine in time, those who were running the path were able to escape and destroy all of the evidence remaining. Kenobi returns to tattooine, having successfully fooled Vader and his inquisitors.
    This is just a short fan fic I guess, but I feel like if I had more time and space, whatever j could write would probably be better than what we got. Just sayin

    One major problem I had with Obi Wan the series was in the final episode: I felt that there was no sense of peril or threat of death for Obi wan, Vader, Owen, Beru or Luke, because they're all alive at the start of 'A New Hope'. So there was no sense of danger at all. It's like if you watched 'Return of the Jedi' first and then afterwards watched 'Empire Strikes Back'. You'd already know how these characters' arcs end, thus there'd be no sense of danger at all for them.

There is no way that these two wouldn't have recognized that she is still alive. And btw: BOTH have a strong motivation to kill her - Vader for her constant failure and betrayal and the Grandinquisitor for... well she took his job and stabbed him with a laser sword.

He cries about not hearing anything from Kenobi, but stating also that they agreed not contacting each other. WTF?
      But that's not all: The plot only continues, because Kenobi forgot his communicator, with this sensible information (why he didn't deleted it?!) and Reva finding it. Serious, the series could have ended there, with Reva dying and all would be fine, easily avoiding all thi bsh*t.

    I gave up after episode 3, so like many others I'm watching this disaster vicariously through Gary, Az & others.
    But I have to say: the plot for this is so needlessly convoluted.
    I would have preferred instead a deep character study of maturing Obi-Wan. Increasing his knowledge of the force in solitude, communicating with Qui-Gon to become more powerful. Knowing that he would most probably be having to face his old friend Anakin again.
    I wouldn't have a confrontation with them in the show though. Because unlike the writer, I've watched "all the Star wars."
    Instead, what if occasionally Obi-Wan & Anakin/Vader communicate through the force?
    And through that plot device we get to see that there is still a sliver of good in Anakin.
    And BOOM! We've added some more deapth to the Vader character & we can explore the relationship between Anakin (& Vader) & Obi-Wan.
    I'm at home with the flu (not covid) & I'm coming up with better story elements that the retard who wrote this show!

      I don't like any scenario in which Vader and Obi-wan are in contact.

Wait. No. That doesn't work. Slice Bail organa in half and drop the halves down a 200-story shaft. Oh. Wait. That doesn't work. Just throw him into a fusion reactor that then triggers a nuclear explosion. FUCK ME! THAT DOESN'T WORK EITHER? You know what, I give up. Pay Verizon for a Voicemail service and just sell the account to the Empire so they can listen-in on Bail Organa spilling every secret in the galaxy. Maybe they can figure out how to kill him once he's given up all of the rebels.

    It's disappointing cause this show had potential to flesh out what Vader and Kenobi were doing between the prequels and OT. As much as I liked the idea of Vader appearances, the line "when we last met I was but the learner, now I am the master" so Vader should have been a more shadowy figure here, directing the inquisitors from afar and punishing them for failures. Flashbacks and maybe some force communications would have been fine but yeah that rematch should have never happened. Plus I have no problem with Revas background, but we already had an established female inquisition around this time with Trilla from fallen order, who even appears in the comic run, but now we've shoehorned another characterin for the first time. Unless I'm misunderstanding the timeline, correct me if I'm wrong. Just my take on that.
