Not enough people seem to remember that. Obi-Wan thought he left anakin to *die* on Mustafar, burned to a crisp. It was the shock of his life later when he learned who Vader really was. By the time of A New Hope, he *did* know, but had accepted that Vader and Anakin weren't the same person. It was the only way he could hope that Anakin could be redeemed: If Vader died, Anakin's soul could go to the 'good place' in the force.
Also in the (EU?) novel "Dark Lord Rising" when Obi Wan learns that Vader survived Mustafar, Qui Gon's Force Ghost speaks to him and tells him that Tatooine represents everything in Anakin's past that causes him pain & might cause him to reassert himself over the Vader "personality." Thus Darth Vader, Dark Lord of the Sith will avoid going to Tatooine.
Actually, Boba Fett was tasked with finding out who destroyed the Death Star. He encountered Luke on Tatooine, but Luke escaped. However, Boba Fett found out Luke’s last name and reported it to Darth Vader. Vader’s revelation that he had a son shook him to his very core, as he realized that Emperor Palpatine had lied to him all this time. That’s the only reason why Boba Fett lived to see another day.
Oh, yes, I remember this one. Vader composed a rather lengthy message to Watto communicating his upset at his brief stint in slavery and gave an impassioned case for the abolition of slavery in the galaxy. Watto was emotionally touched, the two met and Watto began a campaign of restoring those who had previously been his slaves. It was a touching story of redemption for Watto and when Anakin learned that violence is not always needed in all cases. Very heartwarming tale.
As much as I find slavery a despicable practice, being executed by a Sith Lord seems less like justice and more like poetic justice. For plot reasons, though, this is an appropriate ending as I can't imagine Vader letting his childhood suffering go. He would punish Watto for himself and his mother to break ties with his past.
Big question to you @star.wars.comics : How strong would Vader have been if he reunited with his own inner self, young Anakin Skywalker and was fully conscious of all his suffering all at the same time?

Yeah in literature or fiction in general there are few TRUE coincidences but it all comes down to reader/veiwer inference and Head Canon. It's Watto to Me. 🤓😎✌🏻
One minor correction: Obi Wan didnt realize that Anakin was alive, he hid him there because there was barely any empire control there

@iainballas Yep exactly, well put together explanation ❤️

Vadar was probably too traumatized, or flooded with memories, by being back on Tattoine that he wasn’t even thinking about Obi-Wan.
I think you mean pay Watto a beating.
The fact that Boba Fett called Vader Skywalker and lives... Just shows the respect Vader has for Boba

@@astrofan1993That’s one way of looking at it - though I like to think that Vader did respect Boba personally.

5:33 This went from a chill vid to a vid that is TENSE.
Why couldn't Vader sense Obi-Wan's presence on Tatooiine?
Obi-wan would've sensed him coming so he likely hid his presence
Or Luke for that matter?
wasnt thinking about it
At that time, he had still disconnected himself from the Force and was not going out of his way to advertise his presence.
It's like looking for your keys, looking right at them, and not seeing them

"Couldn't care less".... to say "could care less" would imply he cares a little...
I'm sorry, but MY favorite junk dealer is Fred G. Sanford. That's S-A-N-F-O-R-D. Period.
Awesome video 👍

Repost?
Yes!
Is this canon
I'm gonna make it canon.

How the hell would waddo even know who dr. Aphra was?
That's a good question. I guess it was more of a wrong time, the wrong place thing.
His name is Watto.
Why wouldn't He? The Underworld can be a small world, information is crucial to good business, and Chelli wasn't exactly a shrinking violet.

Wow, first, lol 😂😂
