![Anakin Faces Obi-Wan in the Force after his Death [Canon]](/img/n.gif)
Hayden can still swing a lightsaber like no bodies business. He still got it. Probably muscle memory for him at this point. 😂.
Best duelist in the universe
I wouldn’t want to fight him.
He is Anakin. Always has been, always will be.
That's the main thing I was paying attention to with this fight. The fluidity in the way he fights compared to everyone else on the show is extremely noticeable.
@OG_FonyTerguson, it's because the prequels had a great fight and stunt crew. They would spend hours and hours and days training. That was my issue with the sequels, it look like the stunt crew only had a week to train them, thats why the sequel lightsaber fights look like teenagers waving glowsticks and here the lightsabers look scary, heavy and intense.
He fights with the brutality of darth vader but with the swordsmanship and speed of anakin, I love it.
I was really thinking that we were catching a glimpse of what Vader would have been like had he not lost the duel on Mustafar
@@williamdiment7439 100%. This makes me want to see a Star Wars what if so bad
Meanwhile on Exegol.
Palpatine: WHY DIDN’T I GET THAT!?!?
A bit yes. Vador uses the power way more
Live-action Knightfall Vader
The scene where Ahsoka says “I won’t fight you” and Anakin responds with “I’ve heard that before” is such a beautiful callback to Return of the Jedi when Luke tells him the same thing. Had me crying❤️🩹
Right!!!!!!❤ “Obi wan,has taught you well”
“ i wont fight you father”
So this takes place after Vader's death? Is this force Anakin?
@@mattd6200 Yes
Yea i was thinking the same thing like didn’t luke say that before
The fact that he's using his blue lightsaber again is a great nod towards his redemption before becoming a force ghost.@@mattd6200
Anakin still moves like he's in his 20s this episode is by far the best. The guy deserves a new starwars movie
He also looks like he's in his 20s too, which is crazy.
Yes ikr
@@Axl21facts
Hayden looks great for his age. It’s clear he moves quite a bit
Lol he had 2
Anakin is such a brutal therapist lol. Ahsoka was stuck in her past and stopped "living", just existing unable to move on. Anakin basically forces her to fully embrace and accept what happened by making her relive it, and understand that her past shouldn't shackle her and she could be more than that. I'm happy that even as a Force Ghost, his shenanigans never went away.
Anakin is a very effective teacher.. his methods are just... unorthadox to say the least.
@@thewalrus45 His methods are right for the student he was given.
his brutality saved her from getting shot by clones
I kinda wish they had hugged at the end. They deserve to hug after everything. But Anakin was never really a touchy feely kind of guy, so I get it. And this is very in character for him. When Ahsoka lost her entire squadron, he just put her right back out there. Not to be cruel, but to let her know he still had faith in her and her abilities. To show vs tell her that she had to move on. Obi-Wan never SHOWED Anakin things like this, he just TOLD Anakin what to do, how to feel. That type of teaching clearly didn't work.
Live or Die feels like a very brutal interpretation of Do or Do not.
The point of this fight was to teach Ahsoka that she shouldn’t live in guilt and shame of all that she had to go through.
yep one of my biggest gripes with the show was ahsoka seemed completely lifeless in the first four episodes but its obvious after this episode that that was intentional
@@AIRWAY26 seeing her gleeful old self return was so beautiful. Rosario nails it.
Instead of trying to train Sabine, she now will... after fighting Thrawn
i thought it was to be faster
Did/Does Anakin give himself a pass for killing 5-10 year old kids?
That fact that this guy hadn't swung a lightsabre in anger for nearly 20 years before coming back to do these shows, and is still light years ahead of the current cast, speaks alot to how well he trained for the prequels.
True but maybe he also continued martial arts training for all these years and may be that contributed too)
The biggest difference I can see is that Hayden was actually trained 😂
He truly IS the chosen one
He knows martial arts, he is a beast
Didn’t he play Darth Vader in Rogue One?
Hayden is, and will ever be Anakin. Look at his expression, his lightsaber swings. He is unmatched. IRL and in universe
Damn right the legend himself.
Anakin is basically the only role Hayden has ever had in his entire life, with one exception being the Jumper film he did awhile ago. But other than that, Hayden has and always will be Anakin Skywalker.
@@nateborie6329he was also in Takers.
@@nateborie6329 That's a ridiculous thing to say, he had films before and after Star Wars. Read his filmography before writing this nonsense. Yes, his career might be not as prolific as Ewan's for example, but to say he only had one role is ridiculous and factually incorrect.
@@nateborie6329actually that’s where you are completely wrong. Check his filmography! He’s done a lot more than just Star Wars and Jumper!
This makes me miss Anakin so much, his intensity, his lightsaber combat, his blunt attitude but still cracking jokes, Hayden did a great job, and the way he was using that saber was crazy he still has it probably muscle memory for him now, great episode!
Was suprised to
I wanted to reach out and just FLING myself at him in a hug, cause same I missed Anakin Skywalker so badly lol. I don't care if Anakin isn't much of a hugger HE'D BE GETTING ONE FROM ME DAMMIT lol.
Actually the best thing about Hayden is when it comes to Anakin's fight choreography, Hayden came up with a lot of it during the training process. That includes his signature spinning the lightsaber behind his back.
Anakin Was one of the best lightsaber duelists I’m the order he was better then average at form 1 mastered form 6 and form 5 and then created a variant of form 5 when he had to have the majority of his body replaced by prosthetics in the Lucas books they fully expected him to be the next battle master of the order
Hayden like anakin is a skilled one with a saber
When Anakin responds to Ahsoka, “I’ve heard that before.” Love the callback to Luke in Episode 6
I'm pretty sure it was really a callback to their fight on Malachor, but an argument could be made for Return of the Jedi as well, I guess. Maybe.
@@ethanschmid4104 she didn’t say the line then so he wasn’t referring to that. Him saying he heard it before is a direct reference to Luke. Considering he was trying to teach her the lesson Luke showed him of throwing away the lightsaber and choosing to be selfless, it’s definitely a Luke reference
@kurtadams4791 Sometimes when people say things like "I won't leave you" it's inferred that they don't want any harm to come to you it was ahsokas way of telling vader/anakin that in rebels
I thought it was kinda obvious that he was referring to Ahsoka fight in Rebels finale. It doesn't have to be a word to word quote.
@@Commander_Shepard.But she doesn't say anything resembling that. Luke did.
His flourish at 2:39 is PERFECT!
It’s like he starts out fighting like Vader, gets warmed up a bit, shakes it up with that flourish, and goes into Anakin-mode.
Praise Filoni!
You should praise Hayden instead
you just know he was thinking "damn, couldn't do that in the suit"
@@tuahsakato17praise filoni and hayden
@@FEDsquaredit's an awesome way to look at it. Like an athlete coming back from an injury. At first, they're just testing themselves, being careful not to reinjure themselves. Once they get their sea legs, they're running around and dunking on people.
This is what I feel like Anakin was going through here. He's like "okay, I think I'm BACK back"
@@FEDsquared fr
This whole thing was such a big brother moment. Anakin still loves Ahsoka and he wants her to move on. He’s been there for her since she was a small child, forced to fight in a galactic war. He’s still looking out for her. And wants her to fight, aka to live and love living. Not to blame herself, for the darkness of his life. Ahsoka is Anakin’s family, his little sister. This made me tear up.
Ya that dynamic was one of the redeeming qualities of the Jedi eatch master and apprentice were highly close for the most part with a few exceptions
@@seanbraley2772 I know what you mean, but I don’t think that’s the case with most of the Jedi. That was their problem. They blocked themselves off from their emotions. They were training to be monks or robots, and not full human beings, emotionally/spirituality well rounded, no true family or friends, no full attachment. Anakin was attached to Ahsoka. She was more than just an apprentice to him.
@@afrinaut3094 they are all pretty much like that they are eather a parent figure if they train the student at a young enuff age or a older sibling one if the student is older the few that are agest that rule would be thoses like duku who only took a student to get the rank of master or yoda who took duku as his student to keep him away from the master he wanted and the temptation of studying dark side artifates
@@afrinaut3094 The late Jedi definitely show the detachment you write of.
The original mantra of the Jedi seems to simply be:
"control your emotions"
"let go of things that are out of your control"
"be compassionate to those around you help those that need it. Maybe even those that don't."
All of these things are sound pieces of advice and should be practiced on a regular bases. However, if taken to their extremes, it can lead to what we see in the Prequels with plenty of Jedi (such as Mundi and Windu). If left uncheked, controlling emotions can lead to not having any emotion at all. Letting go of things too easily can make you detached from the world (such as Luminara and Barris). And then how can you show compassion and help those around you if you do not feel emotion or don't care about anything? And not to mention the fact that in order to be a peacekeeper, you gotta be ready to fight those that seek to do harm, which can either lead down the path of hatred, the path of arrogance, or the path of desensitization.
We see example of this in many Jedi:
- Ki-Adi-Mundi, who was allowed to have children due to his endangered species, but was a terrible father and gave no love to his wives. Not to mention of how desensitized he was during some of the episodes.
- Mace Windu with his disregard for Boba Fett's loss and feelings of revenge. Not to mention his arrogance that came from being a war hero (as well as from being a part of the Council). As well as his disregard for Ahsoka's troubles during her final arc on the 2008 Clone Wars.
- The entirety of Ahsoka's trial in the 2008 Clone Wars, with them throwing her under the bus and slightest hint of malice.
- Luminara immediately letting go of Barris on Geonosis without any confirmation that they were actually dead. Sure, she mentioned this to Anakin saying to him "would you do the same?" Which fair, but if it wasn't for Anakin, those two would've been dead.
We also see glimpses of Jedi being what they're made for:
- Yoda speaking to the clones in one of the first episodes.
- The giant amount of compassion Plo Koon holds for the Wolfpack Squad throughout the entire series.
- Plo Koon apologizing profusely after finding out Ahsoka was innocent.
- Kenobi not wavering after Satine's death.
- Kanan letting Ezra's "death wash over him as to not allow it to take control of his soul.
- Ezra letting go of his parents and their deaths.
- Anakin and Ahsoka having a giant amount of love for those that they help throughout the series.
- Kit Fisto and Aayla Secura having a secret relationship.
@@afrinaut3094 No full attachment does not mean no emotions at all. They clearly still formed bonds between themselves as shown between Ob-Wan and Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan and Anakin (we were like brothers). Their purpose was to instill that mission/duty and allegiance to the Force and galactic order should be above all. The teaching was to love and show compassion but not be attached or try to control/possess something that can't be. I'm not justifying just explaining because you twisted it a bit. The doctrine itself isn't necessarily wrong but the fact that some took it to extremes and became so dogmatic and unflexible is. I think Lucas took principles of non-attachemnts from Buddhist and Thao teaching that also think that attachment is a root of suffering and preach to love but not grow attached/become possessive. Of course it's natural to people to grow attached and get emotional but Jedi were no ordinary people. Being consumed by emotions could be dangerous for powerful force-wielder (as shown with Anakin) - but as other person here said, suppressing emotions is also unhealthy. The original purpose was to balance emotions/attachemnts and raise above them NOT to kill them completely though. Some of them did become rather uncaring and callous but most of them were still compassionate.
Ahsoka “I won’t fight you”
Anakin “I’ve heard that before”
Is there a chance that he was referencing his fight with Luke?
There's no way he wasn't.
might've been when ahsoka and vader fought in rebels
Maybe. But its probably that and his fight with Ashoka. He's heard it from both his adopted sister and son.
No rebels she said
Ahsoka: "I won't fight you"
Vader: "Then you will die"
Ties back to the lesson.
@@armaniwebb4467 I thought she said “I won’t leave you… not this time” but I could be wrong
This proves 100% that haydens performance was never his fault in the prequels and dave feloni literally made haden act just like lanters character. More like a big brother type of personality towards ahsoka is something we never seen in live action before. Wish they made a live action clone wars. Haydens performance was insane and turned out to be way better than matt lanter.
What performance by Matt lanter, his voice😂
💯💯💯💯
Yes it was direction. I did not realize it for years and years, but George had directed him to speak with Darth Vader's cadence. It made him sound like a robot, which fit DV's aesthetic but was awful for Anakin.
@@ProCoRat BRO YES, that's something that i only realized now too, i was trying to explain why it was weird but this is the answer
The magic moment for me was Anakin and young Ahsoka's first time on the clone wars battlefield. As soon as he mentors her after the battle you can hear the writing of those characters via Dave. But you get Hayden and the young actress being able to live those characters with all that history and chemistry between them super naturally. That had to be a really fulfilling moment for Dave and Hayden both
Bringing Anakin back was genius. His dry humor and smugness about not completing her training. I haven't shown you everything yet, great line and nicely executed. Hayden has perfected and owned this role. He's definitely left his imprint in the Star Wars world. Well done 👍.
Now with this knowledge, watch the Final duel in ROTS.
Anakin finally getting the respect he deserves
The freaking POWER WALK. Whew. Straight from _Revenge of the Sith._
And the way his voice was mixed with Vader's at "You lack conviction." incredible.
AND HE DID HIS SIGNATURE MOVE TOO?! I feel like I don't deserve this lol.
Its so beautiful to see Hayden having come full circle. I remember when Hayden made his big return at Celebration 2017 and got a standing ovation. You can really tell that that’s when Hayden was finally able to start heal from all the crap he got during the prequels. And from that came his new slew of convention appearances, then his reunion and rematch with Ewan on Kenobi, and now here back as Anakin in his full glorious prime.
I have for very long felt that Hayden was unfairly treated by critics and that his performance was never held in contempt by the wider audience. I never got what was so wrong with his acting.
@@erikpersson2047 +1 my friend
@@erikpersson2047It really was mistreating him for script issues - Anakin's cringe lines were not Hayden's fault, and people gradually forgave him for them, and this is the reward we were given for that.
@@TheMimiSardbasically it was the fault of the writing of dialogue not Hayden
@@TheMimiSard But it was more in Episode 2 that he was criticized, but in episode 3 his lines and acting improved, including an improvement in the dialogues.
I love how Hayden has incorporated some of Matt Lanter's Anakin while still keeping the core of his movie Anakin. It's like the two of them built off each other over years and years to become the fullest expression of the character's voice and mannerisms.
Couldn’t agree more, and I love it
I couldn't help but smile when he called her "Snips". I think about all the times they'd call each other by their respective nicknames of "Sky Guy" and "Snips".
This right here is Star Wars. The lightsaber duel, the dialogue, the lesson here as well as the atmosphere and tension. If only we had more moments like this for modern Star Wars.
if only the sequels had this kind of quality....
We have ton man, you’re just too stuck up in nostalgia to see them. It’s really sad that you let your emotions control so much over whether or not you like a part of a story that ultimately doesn’t exist. We have to accept a lot about life and nature. Why not let entertainment media do it’s job and entertain us lol. You don’t have to love everything but I genuinely think modern Star Wars has some amazing moments. Not everything is amazing but the same applies to all of Lucas’s stuff. You look past all the issues in those and still enjoy them…
Or he just doesn't like them lmao
@@TheSCPStudio😂 Sequels are bad, with plenty of reasons. It has nothing to do with nostalgia.
@@Xardasjconsidering Star Wars fans were unbelievably toxic during the prequel era. Yes, it is clearly is nostalgia lmao.
Jesus seeing Hayden swing that lightsaber brought be back to the prequels. The amount of training he and Ewan did shows how badass they were really
Definitely dude
ikr.
And it’s carried over he did some pretty advanced sword skills in the outcast movie he did about a disgraced crusader
Mmm, delicious memberberries. Keep eating them up little piggy, Disney loves your money.
Something that comes with hard work hell take keanu reeves who has a reload named after him that's not being used in 3 gun competitions
This episode brought my childhood back to life in ways I never imagined I’d get to see. Growing up in the late 2000’s all I could think about was the clone wars and much I wish I could see the original actors in these roles!
Yes it brought me to nostalgic tears genuinely probably the best thing Disney has ever done with Star wars
My childhood flashed before my eyes
@@ethanschmid4104same I nearly cried seeing this episode
@@ethanschmid4104I was literally 8 when clone wars first premiered now I’m 23 and crying like a baby because of how they beautifully bright my childhood to life in this episode.
This was… I can’t even describe how happy I am with this episode, I had goosebumps the whole time!!!
That ending was like a series finale!!!..I had chills so much is like a farewell ending and never coming back type feeling. An emotion!..this episode left me speechless
As someone who struggled to see Hayden’s Anakin as the animated one. Seeing the clone wars flashback truly made me believe they are one in the same. Giving Hayden’s performance a chance to shine in the light of a teacher and a mentor as well as the general from the clone wars was so enlightening and refreshing.
Imagine if the whole clone wars was live action. Whilst impossible, would have been an amazing dream.
If they made a live action clone wars series, I’m all for it. Deepfakes and cgi would probably make Disney bankrupt though lmao
@@Us3r739disney and bankrupt does not belong in the same sentence lmao, do you know how rich they are 😂😂😂
It should’ve been done before between when AOTC and ROTS was made. The clone wars really could’ve been it’s own set of movies if George had thought of it back then or had thought of the idea of making the prequel era more than a trilogy.
Somewhere deep in the cosmos is a universe where our clone wars series was live action with Hayden AND Ewan in their iconic roles. Someone get me a portal gun 😭
Got to remember he was playing a confused young Jedi struggling with his emotions , in the middle of a war. I think Cristian did a great job in the Prequels. Remember he was not Vader yet
I absolutely lose it at 2:37 the spin! Hayden still gots it.
Hayden’s trademark move! I love it too!
Ahsoka: Looks like you don't have much left to offer.
Anakin: I haven't taught you everything yet.
*Casually severs space time*
Proceeds to slice the floor. 😂
Gets the high ground
@@JohnPeacekeeperhahaha. It’s such an Anakin thing to do too. Something so out of the box that the other person didn’t even consider as a choice.
Perfect Anakin response. Hayden delivered that line perfectly!
I'm gonna echo what everyone is saying in the most positive way but the SEEING THE CLONE ARMOR USING PRACTICAL COSTUMES WAS AWESOME!!!!!
And live action Captain Rex
Agree to a extent still think there are some areas they could have refined or talked to a armor master about because I’m seeing stuff that would mess with your range of motion
1:58 finally, the youngling slayer 9000 on it's rightful master.
He has a problem with the youngster
When he says “I haven’t taught you everything yet” it was sooo much like Clone Wars Anakin. I love how he’s added so much off Lanter’s Anakin to his version whilst still maintaining a lot of his original performance in the prequels. Hayden is the best part of the show
Going off the top comment, the lesson was definitely about how she needs to live, choosing to move past her guilt, shame, and trauma, and embrace life again. She's not Vader, and she's more than just a child soldier/murderer. The first half of the show made it clear that Ahsoka is pretty much a shell atm, not really living. I think after her "baptism" it's clear that she's rejuvenated, and maybe she'll pass on the lesson to her also very depressed apprentice.
She needs a worthy apprentice, Sabine is a paper weight at best
@@victorguerriero5002I'm hoping she'll decide to train Jacen.
@@Sodorboy98 same, his connection to the force is crazy strong
You nailed the lesson to be learned here :)
Look at the way he moves!! Hayden's genuine athleticism and technique are sorely missing from modern Star Wars. Everything from his movement, saber control to footing looks so clean... He's not only the best in-canon saber fighter but also in real life.
"I won't fight you" "I've heard that before" absolutely amazing call back to Luke and Vader in the Emperors throne room
“One is never too old to learn.”
I guess becoming one with the Force gave Anakin new perspective.
Hayden & Rosario deserve to win another award after the show.
This episode is so artistically done
The line delivery for “Ive heard that before” is so powerful. Haydens tone is playful, sinister yet also confident and cold. It truly puts hayden’s vader in the fight with hamills Luke.
His fighting style is so masterful and powerful. He perfectly embodies his character.
Oh man, this scene and the flashbacks are everything to me. I loved this episode.
I just knew Anakin would say how old Ahsoka has gotten. 😄 Like a big brother/best friend would. It reminded me of when Rex told Ahsoka, "You've gotten old. "Had to happen sometime, Rex."
Me too.
@@nathancruz9172when does this take place? this is before revenge of the sith? ouo
@@BlankXInfinity yes, it takes place in revenge of the Sith.
@@BlankXInfinitythis is long after revenge of the Sith. This is after the empire has fallen
Oh yeah, Hayden Christensen's still got the moves. This is easily my favorite episode of the season so far!!
Let all take a moment to appreciate Anakin's fighting style straight out of the Animated Series beating people down with his lightsaber. Hayden is just killing it.
Man Hayden and Ewan are the top lightsaber duelists out of all the actors in Star Wars. They make it look so stylish
Actually Ray Park is better than Ewan 👀
@@vutienphuc1519 in fairness, Ray, Hayden and Ewan are the holy trinity of lightsaber duelists
@@matthewwhite4564both Ray and Neeson had worked on past projects ray from the martial arts world and Neeson was picked because of Rob Roy Ewen had no skill in that before and made it look effortless dude reminds me of keanu and what he done for this role for neo 8 hours a day training different martial arts
The part where he does his signature behind-the-back twirl at 2:39 had me SCREAMING
I like the quote “ one is not too old to learn, snips “ it really embodies anakin that nugget of wisdom that haunted his whole life until he accepted it at the end of his life embraced by his son
Hearing Hayden say ‘you can do this, Ahsoka’ just brought me to tears
You can tell Hayden is holding back all those years of swinging a lightsaber prop 😂
Hayden’s chemistry with Rosario , and Ariana, along with their Saber skills is 🔥🔥🔥🔥👏👏⚡️⚡️
I think the point of this fight is to get her to be aware of her environment. She never force tosses rocks. She wasn't aware that she was being pushed towards a cliff in her fight with Skoll. She didn't think of severing the path they were fighting on in the World Between. She's an amazing technical duellist but not a strategist. That needs to change.
Spot on, this comment.
No, it wasn’t about this at all. This wasn’t a lesson on combat. This was teaching her to stop blaming herself for Anakin’s fall, and to continue LIVING
It was much more deeper than that
It was about living without shame and fear
She regretted the clones dead, she was afraid of becoming Vader version of herself
Thats why she was an a$$ to Sabine. Out of fear and regret
The moment she kicked him, Vader came out to play 😂
Even CGI Anakin from clone wars doesn't move as well as Hayden with his lightsaber. Ewan and Hayden are the golden standard of light saber fighting.
Bro I never thought I’d see this day😂growing up with Hayden and seeing him now was such a call back to my childhood! Thanks Star Wars!
2:38 he did it again!!!! I knew that Vader suit had too much restrictions. Hayden moves as much as he did during the prequels in here then in Kenobi. Even during the flashbacks when he did the spin wasn't as impressive as this one.
Naw, just Deborah Chow isn't filoni
Well in the kenobi flashbacks anakin wasn't half as skilled and strong as he was by episode 3 so they couldn't portray him at full strength or speed
in Kenobi, the flashback was Anakin as a Padawan. Less developed, less skilled, less refined. This is what Anakin could have been.
I think the Anakin we’re shown here could’ve been Anakin in his prime.
Just as Palpatine intended
This is the final form Anakin that we've all wanted to see and I'm loving Dave for giving it to us.
Every part of his character's story culminates to this moment between him and his legacy making peace.
Honestly right along side his handling of the sabor, his footwork is absolutely insane. Each step so calculated with each swing 🥹 nobody can play a better Anakin.
I never thought the day would come when we'd see live-action Anakin say "snips" 😢
Anakin came back to complete her training, was the coolest thing the whole show.
Honestly Disney should REALLY have Hayden be the lightsaber combat instructor for upcoming actors being put into the franchise. I had completely forgotten how flawless he makes those swings look but they hit with so much impact it gives the fight a real intense factor. This brought me back to being a kid in the theater in 2005. THIS should be & always have been the standard.
2:18 the way je breaks that deadlock almost looks like hes empowering his push with the force. The tale of Anakin Skywalker is and always will be the greatest story ever told.
I love the way they haven’t even used the force not one time just straight up lightsabers 10/10 episode
Anakin force pushed her tho
@@Jelly_Raptorwhen
@@Jelly_Raptor when
@@Jelly_Raptor that was muscle force. She would've flied way further if it was the force
@@Paolini_18 Nah it was the force. Anakin would empower his saber swings with the Force which is what made him such a devastating duelist, even more so as Vader
2:38 There's the technique I miss. That movement you only saw during the prequels. It feels so different from the way the Jedi move in the movies that follow. It's also nice to see that Ashoka is clearly from that time because she can fight against it.
Right? Like if you had throw all the characters in categories by movie style she definitely falls under the prequel style, I really look at her like one of them like she brings that clone wars touch to this era
Ahsoka* fix it
@@another501stguy What about Asokha?
@@exit1595 sinner
I like the development of this third stage Anakin. He has the skill and ability of when he was a Jedi and the conviction and insight of when he was Vader. But what truly brings him together is the clarity and peace of mind that came about after his redemption. It took a long way around to get there, but he really is Qui Gon's student.
Honestly, my favorite part of Hayden returning is the fact that he brought back his subtle Anakin mannerisms. At 0:53, the way he moves his eyebrows when he tells Ahsoka she lost is almost an exact facial move he does in RotS. I'm so happy.
“You look old” 😂
It’s funny how all the fans realize the value in Hayden and appreciate him after having years of brutal Star Wars films. Never know what you have until it’s gone.
1:32 the line "one is never too old to learn, snips" feels amazing because he knows exactly what he's talking about
i like how anakin is able to go back and forth between his light and dark side for the fights. 2:18 he is so strong its no wonder he had to defeat himself.
Hayden using a lightsaber like he never took a day off, man is incredible for the work he pulls off.
Nice to see Hayden back teaching the most important of lessons: Securing the high ground.
Hayden's skill in using his lightsaber made me smile so much, he still got it after all these years.
Man no one does saber combat like hayden, you just see him swinging and you know exactly who it is
When anakin says “I’ve heard that before”, he’s referring to when Luke said “ I won’t fight you father” in ROTJ
Or when Ahsoka spoke to him on Malachor
@@CRYSTAL_CUSTOMSexcept that's not what she said. She said "I won't leave you...not this time" so no, Anakin had not heard that fromm her before
I love that in this episode Anakin truly represented balance in the force. And that his final lesson, was essentially teaching Ahsoka that she should not be ashamed of her past, and to embrace it, no matter how painful, because it’s a part of her, and her legacy. Truly amazing work by both Ahsoka’s actresses and Hayden
2:38 The Obi-Ani spin move will always be my favorite, Anakin is so badass.
Feel like Hayden could’ve gone so much faster fighting but has to hold back a bit 😂❤
When Ahsoka says "I won't fight you", and Anakin replies "I've heard that before".. he is referring back to Luke's "I will not fight you father".. I'm in tearssssss
Hayden has such a natural talent for swordsmanship. His footwork weight distribution coordination and just smoothness are incredible.
Hayden moving sooo slowly on purpose so dawson can keep up 😂😂
Anybody notice that Hayden’s speech pattern and fighting style mirror his Vader forms ? I think the director was trying to show what anakin is like underneath the Vader suit.
Hayden made that a point when he got the role, which unfortunately, was a large part of why he was criticized for his performance.
Hayden’s style of Lightsaber Fighting (Form V) is what made me obsess with the beauty and intricacy of sword fighting my entire childhood and young adult life. Hell, even now as a 26 year old, I can’t help but twirl around any and all long sticks, props, toy swords/lightsabers, cardboard paper holders as if I was Anakin Skywalker. Hayden’s skill still inspires me to this day! Truly he’s the GOAT
I'm here to finish your training.
One is never too old to learn.
You know it's serious when Anakin pulls out the Youngling Slayer 9000.
😂
I honestly believe HC never stopped training with a blade and became a proficient sword fighter. His footwork gives himself away.
everyone here talking about Hayden’s skill with the lightsaber blade and I’m just sitting here looking at his feet mesmerized by his foot works👀
The fact they had Anakin twirl/spin his light saber for that brief moment is just
It's crazy to think that this all happened after the Luke's journey in the 80s
One of my favorite parts of their fight is when anakin says “u lack conviction” cuz it kinda sounds like his voice is faintly mixed with vaders
Yes
Hayden spinning the lightsaber was Soo cool! He completely became Anakin again. Its amazing how he changed from wise calm Skyguy "No one is ever too old to learn, Snips" to threatening and aggressively attacking Ahsoka! The episode was fulfilling!
If they made a stand alone series with Anakin, I would probably die.
Hayden's portrayal of a mentor is amazing. How he draws out sentences and words specifically like Matt's Anakin did in the clone wars is amazing
How is this short duel better than anything we got in the sequels combined?
Hayden has more experience than anyone, probably better choreographers and Dave is behind all this
Probably remembering the choreography and training from Nick Gillard. He’s the guy who made all the prequel light saber duels look as godlike as they did compared to the sequels.
This is the Star Wars I’ve been wanting for so long especially seeing Hayden back in action again. He was and will always be THE Anakin Skywalker. Flashy yet clean lightsaber fights with the raw emotions and witty attitude. That’s my laser sword GOAT user.
This Anakin also shows the experience of being Vader in some of his speech, movements and mannerisms
Hayden always did that behind the back spin and I love seeing that again ❤ Hayden was my first ever celebrity crush and maybe my first ever crush as a child at 9 years old. I love him to this day. Glad to see he still has it.
A clone wars live action movie is a must Disney!! While Hayden and Ewan are young enough to still do it!
What I find fascinating is that afterlife Anakin seems to have control of both of his sides. He can be the Anakin that the galaxy loved as a hero, to Vader that everyone feared. In a way, he has accepted his natures and uses both as a lesson.
Ahsoka: "I wont fight you"
Anakin: "I've heard that before"
ANAKIN (as Hayden) FINALLY REFERENCES HIS SON FOR THE FIRST TIME WHY IS THIS HEARTWARMING
Who wants Luke and Anakin to interact in a future Filoni project?🤚
(I don't know how it could work, but I'm sure Filoni could find a way)
I love Anakin he is one of my favorite characters and I loved his transition from Anakin to Darth Vader one of the best character developments I have ever seen
Just Hayden Christensen showing the new generation what a real lightsaber fight looks like
“You look… the same.”
“You look old.”
I love this XD
Hayden is GOAT at playing Anakin skywalker, admired him since day one i saw him in star wars. Amazing, talented. He really makes you wanna see more of him
What I really love about this fight with Anakin is that you can feel the strength of his attacks with every blow.
His fighting style is much less tainted with anger here
Anakin basically said, “still as stubborn as ever Snips” 😂😂😂
reminds me of their first meeting. "Don't get snippy with me."
