Pontus Kristiansson true, it was because of Ahsoka, the thought of war is going to end soon, thought of seeing Padme again after months, and learning that he will become a father. All of the above were the canon reasons why he was happy, until his dreams.
When Anakin's happy, he's also very handsome. This shows the real Anakin Skywalker, the great pilot, the Captain America of the Republic, Pride of the 501st, embodiment of what all Jedi should be, the most powerful Jedi ever, symbol of hope for the better, the Hero with no fear and a passionate, happy, joyful young man.
@Rorschach's Journal People who break rules aren't always "bad". Sometimes they're just independent spirits who use their initiative and think outside the box. Very often Anakin's bending the rules yielded positive or beneficial results, and who can forget that time he helped Yoda escape from the Temple infirmary when everyone else thought Yoda was crazy for hearing Qui Gon's voice. That was literally instrumental in allowing Yoda to learn how to become a Force Ghost.
Dude found out the war was almost over he finally got to see his padawan but gets sent to coruscant before he could really catch up with her then later finds out he was finna be a father. If that not a tragic story then idk what is 😬🤷🏿♂️
Tbf tho that’d literally be footsteps followed by a few blaster shots, which I admit woulda been kinda cool, but that happened way after order 66 was executed, like a solid 20 or so mins after at least
I don’t think Disney will EVER give us an on screen portrayal of Order 66 / Operation Knightfall since it does involve slaughtering children... I think the only way is from a fan made scene. So if an indie producer sets up a gofundme to make it happen, I’d support it
Perfidy (fake surrender) in any form is a war crime, general. Of course in the SW universe there is no Geneva Convention, so you have nothing to worry about - except justifying the separatists to commit war crimes themselves like genocide, torture etc. :)
Anakin saw ahsoka, found out he was gonna be a father, knew things were good with ahsoka, he knew the war was almost over and his confidence is boosted even further when he kills dooku. Anakin is also completmented by all the politicians afterwards
And then things start going downhill. He is placed on the council but denied the rank of master, told to spy on the chancellor (which went against his morality) and Master Kenobi wouldn't help him out. Then, he starts having dreams about Padme dying and tells Yoda about it, but doesn't get any help. His faith in the Jedi Order is crumbling. His confidence is then increased towards the wrong side as Palpatine tells him about the Jedi and Sith being near equals, as well as the tragedy of Darth Plagueis. This then causes him to get attracted towards the dark side due to them supposedly having the power to save people from dying, like he wanted in Episode 2. The last straw happens when he finds out Palpatine--the one he desires help from--is the Sith Lord. Conflicted between two sides, he ultimately decides to save the ones he loved in the first place and turns to darkness. The worst part is, he didn't save anyone.
I don't think that sentence came out correctly, because it suggests something like this: Ahsoka: Council, there's something I need to tell you Mace: what is it? Ahsoka: this is where the fun begins Mace: Say no more, (activates lightsaber) I never trusted Skywalker anyway
I don't think anything would have changed I mean, c'mon, just with the films the Jedi were already aware that something was about to happen, and that the Sith were in control of the senate Then, with the Clone Wars series they have even more reasons to be aware, like, c'mon, the Five's arc? Yoda's arc later? The Jedi were just too full of themselves to even care, they thought they were unbeatable, and why wouldn't they think otherwise? They were winning the war. Sidious had manipulated it so they felt that way, but the sad truth is... Sidious didn't create that feeling, just fed it, the jedi had this coming for a long time, and let it happen. Just a simple comment from Ashoka wouldn't have change anything, sadly.
@@joseignacioreallozano348 I agree. You also have to account for the lack of trust the Council has in Ahsoka (demonstrated by Windu in that conversation). I can totally imagine a debate where the Elder Council shows as much stupidity as they did when they exiled her. "She's not a Jedi anymore"... "she's letting her emotions cloud her judgement" etc...
Yes, reminded me so much of his last scene with Kenobi while he was still fully Anakin, and Kenobi tells him to be patient, that he would soon be made a master.
From the moment I met you all those years ago, not a day has gone by where I’m not thinking about you. And now that I’m with you again... I’m in agony. The closer I get to you, the worse it gets. The thought of not being with you- I can’t breathe. You are in my very soul, tormenting me. What can I do? I will do anything you ask... if you are suffering as much as I am, please tell me.
@@StarForceOne I believe one was how they dealt with attachment. They probably didn't show him enough love and treated him as an equal, but he needed that comfort since he was already troubled from the beginning. It's like a kid from a troubled family. Sheev filled the gap and successfully executed the plan
@@thealchimi1990 And the worst part is that Anakin was sort of encouraged to be around Palpatine. Not just to spy on him, but because at one point, they seriously thought that Palpatine would be a good influence on Anakin
Yeah the whole time I was watching the prequel series the jedi were fucking up especially Yoda. Man comes to your tells you im concerned someone gonna die and I don't want to lose them what should I do? Yodas advice was to just accept they were going to die, not one word of consolation or encouragement for anankin.
@@abiola100000 Anakin wasn't exactly being truthful, though. Given the war, he could have been speaking about a rather long list of people. Had Anakin actually told him that the person he was worried about was Padme, he may have been able to offer better advise
This series just ended up making me even more upset and angry than I was before. Anakin was amazing. The nicest guy in the galaxy. A hero! How could they do this to him!
That was like the calm before the storm. Palpatine noticed Anakin's good mood, and unwillingness to leave his master behind. That's why he decided to start sending Anakin those disturbing dreams about losing Padme as the war was coming to a close with Dooku and later Grievious' death and he needed Anakin's help to get rid of the remaining Jedi.
Quick aside by the way, full credit to Hayden Christianson for the beginning of Revenge of the Sith. That opening sequence from flying with Obi-wan, to crashing that cruiser turned Anakin from an annoying whiny child to a likeable and even funny character. Such an improvement
Anakin was his happiest at the start of ROTS, because of Ahsoka possibly returning at his side again. But sadly that’s not the ending we did get, and instead we got what was inevitably always going to happen, and Clone wars captured this brilliantly in the most tragic ways possible.
Honestly the Clone Wars Cartoon - both of them - really push the best parts of a prequel story. Most prequels shouldn't matter, especially when characters from the later series are in it. Obi-Wan and Anakin can't have lasting damage or anything. Yet with great writing, animation bringing them to life, and fantastic voice work to give them and other characters' souls, The Clone Wars Cartoons show the path to darkness, the tragedy briefly obscured by the bittersweet happiness we see these characters experience. For every moment we see Anakin and Obi Wan bantering,Ahsoka being Snippy, or the general positivity, the original trilogy's facts haunt from just beyond the horizon.
Or was it because the suit being of outdated and inferior tech (deliberately done by palpatine) it only sustained his bodily needs by pumping him full of liquified taco bell and he Diahreah shat all up in his suit inflamming all those cuts and burns again
I can easily see in an alternate timeline where Ashoka is made a legal guardian of his kids had she known. Or even an adoptive aunt. Maybe to Leila, seeing as ObiWan was watching over Luke on Tatooine.
The happiest day of Anakin's life and then a complete 180 after that. Harvey Dent in the Dark Knight and Anakin are similar in some ways with both of their rise and fall from grace with the quote "You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain". It also reminds me of what the Joker said "As you know madness is like gravity... all it takes is a push" and "All it takes is one bad day..." Anakin's life and story is a huge tragedy.
once again star wars season 7 is the best star wars we've gotten in a lomg time. it's really emotional and clone wars & revenge of the sith are the greatest star wars ever.
When I say my heart breaks when I think about Ahsoka and Anakin's story I really do mean it. Something so pure was ruined by evil intentions and manipulations. I really want to see an alternate reality where Ahsoka stays next to Anakin to be a Jedi knight and Anakin being a Jedi master.
Man... Things where going so good for him. Probably the happiest we ever seen him too. It's so disheartening he basically list everything...in a day. He had everything, then he feared losing everything, then he had nothing.
This might also be one reason why Anakin was quick to execute Dooku. He was impatient to help Ahsoka on Mandalore and to finish their conversation that was cut short
"Fuck you, let's just get this over with. You've escaped our grasps like a dozen times now, killing you right here would put a definite end to this rat race and the war could be over sooner and I could get to Ashoka."
Did you ever thought about why Ahsoka heard the whole confrontation between Mace, Anakin and Palpatine. I was thinking about that and what if Anakin reached for Ahsoka trough the force because he thought she was the only one who could help him and understand his actions.
I think she heard it because there was a strong force bond/connection between them (kinda like the thing between Luke and Leia I guess). Dave said something about their force bond in the past and there was a mention in the Ahsoka novel. Ofc that bond died after Anakin turned into Darth Vader, that's why she couldn't sense him or contact with him after order 66.
I don’t think she heard it. That was for the viewers to understand the timeline and what was going on in ROTS. She only felt a disturbance in the force.
@@HHHPedigrees I agree. Ahsoka couldn't have saved Anakin, if anything, he probably would have convinced her to join him on the dark side, their bond was so strong, and Ahsoka was not as strong yet at she was in Rebels. She almost decided to join up Darth Maul until he mentioned Anakin. It was a good thing that she thought Anakin was dead before meeting him in Rebels many years later, just as he assumed she was dead as well.
1:40 TECHNICALLY he didnt commit a war crime because the enemy announced to fire on Anakin when he surrendered. Likely, this was his plan regardless, but the tactical droid opting to fire on him anyways ended up vindicating Anakin of any crimes he otherwise would be accused of.
The tactical droid ordered to open fire specifically because he knew from previous data pads that Anakin has committed fake surrenders previously, like on Ryloth which resulted in them losing their entire blockade. So it doesn't sound good either way.
Makes sense. I saw an Instagram post on this too, and people were so ignorant they started saying that Ahsoka wasn't canon because she wasn't mentioned in the prequels. Thankfully the people who've watched this video understand this. Disney/Lucasfilm could even canonize this theory that one of the reasons Anakin was happy in ROTS was because Ahsoka may come back to the Order.
There is another reason for him to be happy, he finally understood why Ashoka left, it was not his fault and there was nothing he could do to avoid it, because "it was the will of the force" to find Maul and that's why he bealive she will return once he is capture
It's interesting to wonder if everything had gone right with the end of the war and the Republic hadn't fallen if Ahsoka might have eventually returned to the Jedi Order.
Imagine if the counsel sent Anakin to face General Grievous with Obi, he would have never been assigned to spy on Palps - at least not yet - and he would have never been able to turn Anakin because he was on Utapau and Padmé would have given birth by the time he arrived.
Also the sudden shift where he felt that he was going to loose it all in the end, that threw him directly in to the grasp of the Emperor and the DarkSide, extremely highs are dangerous as it could turn on you very quickly and feel overwhelming. This is what solidified Darth Vader in the end.
It's a war crime regardless. The next time a clone trooper or republic civilians surrender, the separatist are justified to not accept and murder all those who surrender in fear of trickery. That is why it's a war crime, because it breaks the sanctity of surrender. The reason why war crimes exist isn't to protect the opposite sides, but both sides of the conflict to ensure needless violence and deaths are limited, and thus two side agree certain limitations of conduct. People don't understand this, but the direct penalty of commiting a war crime is not only trials and punishment, but direct effect on the battlefield itself
CW Anakin really brings light to the movie Anakin to me. Since throughout CW we see him mature, become more likable and relatable. He brings that through the beginning of RoTS when he was still the same likable and relatable character, but then Palpatine. Just Palpatine.
It truly hits me so hard i mean imgine when you are an unlucky person who suddenly gets everything and in one moment life is like " oh we forget you don't even have luck ok to keep things balanced we must take away all what you got " Anakin was truly damaged by the jedi and the sith and turns out he destroyed them both Qui Gon Jin was right
Just imagine how nice it would be if everything went perfectly. Sidious would be defeated without turning Anakin, padme would give birth to Luke and Leia, and they would have a normal life with their mother, father, auntie ahsoka, uncle obi, and uncle rex. The twins would also be trained properly in the ways of the force, and would probably become even stronger jedi than their father.
ahh man this video is heartbreaking.. Anakin is just a franchise character... but my favorite .. and hearing about the super sharp contrast from the best day of his life to the worst day... man.. that is truly tragically moving i would never ever cry over something fictitious.. but this was emotional
He was happy because he was in a Jedi Interceptor, which is a starship, which is essentially portable high ground, meaning he could not be defeated. I would be happy too if I were invincible for at least a few minutes. Got ruined though by some guy called FN-2187...
Sidious definitely gave everyone a d!@& punch especially after Ashoka comes back. It also makes sense why Sidious reveals himself to the Jedi, if the news of a former dark apprentice points out that Palpatine is the Sith Lord to the Senate then even if order 66 was a success he would have been exposed with very little recourse but to use the clones as his major support rather than the propaganda of the Jedi trying to takeover the Republic.
So sad that Anakin couldn’t be able to reunion with Ahsoka. The next time Anakin and Ahsoka truly meet is when Anakin is a force ghost. It would definitely make sense if Anakin went to visit Ahsoka in the Ahsoka series or in the sequel to Rebels

It could be a story where the jedi and the captain Rex actually believe Fives when he uncovered the order 66 plot
Denver Bax The Clones would disobey Palpatine’s order 66 and the Republic now knows that Consoler Palpatine is the Sith Lord
I’d rather have that and retcon the entire Disney Star Wars
Disney and Lucasfilm should definitely go back to the original Star Wars Universe and make more stories in that continuity.
Ham Burglar well I heard rumors that they’re making a new Star Wars Trilogy
I think I tried not to cry 3 times thinking about this
I know :( so sad
It even got you sad Darth Nihilus? Damn 😔
L I C C I may not have a body but I still have a heart and soul
@@Galvatron_Studios Understandable. Its ok I was sad too
I enjoyed of this cause well, his sister in his eyes Ahsoka Tano
Me watching season 7: "This is where the fun begins."
*Palpatine appears to Rex as a hologram*
Me: "This is where the fun ends. D;"
once again star wars season 7 is the best star wars we've gotten in a lomg time. it's really emotional and clone wars & revenge of the sith are the greatest star wars ever.
Agreed fully!
Your English is so fucking dogshit it’s saddening to be honest. Are you done sort of sped?
@@JordanWickkk nobody asked for your opinion 🥱 stay pressed for whatever reason lol
@@JordanWickkk shut up you will
His English IS good!
Anakin is such a stand up guy, he’s a brilliant war hero. Yeah he committed some war crimes but why let that get ya down.
my poor boy anakin😤
“look how they massacred my boy..”
He was happy because that was when the fun began
When I say my heart breaks when I think about Ahsoka and Anakin's story I really do mean it. Something so pure was ruined by evil intentions and manipulations. I really want to see an alternate reality where Ahsoka stays next to Anakin to be a Jedi knight and Anakin being a Jedi master.
Man... Things where going so good for him. Probably the happiest we ever seen him too. It's so disheartening he basically list everything...in a day. He had everything, then he feared losing everything, then he had nothing.
This might also be one reason why Anakin was quick to execute Dooku. He was impatient to help Ahsoka on Mandalore and to finish their conversation that was cut short
This just makes it worse!
"Fuck you, let's just get this over with. You've escaped our grasps like a dozen times now, killing you right here would put a definite end to this rat race and the war could be over sooner and I could get to Ashoka."
He lost everything in one day...
Just here to remind y'all that Obi-Wan was in a good mood too because he knew how much it meant to Anakin
Did you ever thought about why Ahsoka heard the whole confrontation between Mace, Anakin and Palpatine.
I was thinking about that and what if Anakin reached for Ahsoka trough the force because he thought she was the only one who could help him and understand his actions.
That makes it so much sadder...Not that Ahsoka could do anything at that point.
I think she heard it because there was a strong force bond/connection between them (kinda like the thing between Luke and Leia I guess). Dave said something about their force bond in the past and there was a mention in the Ahsoka novel. Ofc that bond died after Anakin turned into Darth Vader, that's why she couldn't sense him or contact with him after order 66.
I don’t think she heard it. That was for the viewers to understand the timeline and what was going on in ROTS. She only felt a disturbance in the force.
@@HHHPedigrees I agree. Ahsoka couldn't have saved Anakin, if anything, he probably would have convinced her to join him on the dark side, their bond was so strong, and Ahsoka was not as strong yet at she was in Rebels. She almost decided to join up Darth Maul until he mentioned Anakin. It was a good thing that she thought Anakin was dead before meeting him in Rebels many years later, just as he assumed she was dead as well.
1:40 TECHNICALLY he didnt commit a war crime because the enemy announced to fire on Anakin when he surrendered. Likely, this was his plan regardless, but the tactical droid opting to fire on him anyways ended up vindicating Anakin of any crimes he otherwise would be accused of.
The tactical droid ordered to open fire specifically because he knew from previous data pads that Anakin has committed fake surrenders previously, like on Ryloth which resulted in them losing their entire blockade. So it doesn't sound good either way.
Kung Olaf even in Ryloth, the admiral there said he doesnt accept the surrender because he didnt detect any other life forms on the ship.
Damn, this hits deep...lot of emotions !!
😭😭
Makes sense. I saw an Instagram post on this too, and people were so ignorant they started saying that Ahsoka wasn't canon because she wasn't mentioned in the prequels. Thankfully the people who've watched this video understand this. Disney/Lucasfilm could even canonize this theory that one of the reasons Anakin was happy in ROTS was because Ahsoka may come back to the Order.
Yeah those posts were kind of the reason I made this video! Thanks for watching :)
Windu has shoveled his own grave by being unkind to Ahsoka. She didn't tell the Jedi council and Anakin turned to the dark side.
1:41 can’t break the Geneva convention if Geneva doesn’t exist
"This is where the *sad* begins"
I watched ROTS yesterday and I noticed it as well 😞
When you learn why, all these years later it really gets you when you rewatch Episode 3 again
There is another reason for him to be happy, he finally understood why Ashoka left, it was not his fault and there was nothing he could do to avoid it, because "it was the will of the force" to find Maul and that's why he bealive she will return once he is capture
It's interesting to wonder if everything had gone right with the end of the war and the Republic hadn't fallen if Ahsoka might have eventually returned to the Jedi Order.
How about a "What if" story about "What if Anakin went to help Ahsoka capture Maul after rescusing Palpatine?"
The Darkside of the force is the pathway to many abilities some consider to be Unnatural.
Can I learn this power?
@@StarForceOne "not from a jedi"
It would be nice to see/get an alternate timeline from Disney where Anakin leaves together with Ahsoka when she gets kicked out from the Order.
"What if" but Star Wars
Your channel is criminally underrated! Keep it up man!
I don't know why people keep citing the Geneva Convention regarding Star Wars.
I'm glad Asoka Tano is reunited with his master in the force. May The Force Be With You Always.
Imagine if the counsel sent Anakin to face General Grievous with Obi, he would have never been assigned to spy on Palps - at least not yet - and he would have never been able to turn Anakin because he was on Utapau and Padmé would have given birth by the time he arrived.
Also the sudden shift where he felt that he was going to loose it all in the end, that threw him directly in to the grasp of the Emperor and the DarkSide, extremely highs are dangerous as it could turn on you very quickly and feel overwhelming. This is what solidified Darth Vader in the end.
that picture of anakin with his mouth open in the jedi starfighter killssssss me
Really love this channel, first discovered it with you “did the bad batch execute order 66” and I’ve been hooked
Thank you man, means a lot to hear :) I'll be producing a lot more great stuff like this soon too!
all Star Wars ever does is cause pain and this just caused me more pain
When I saw Anakin at the beginning of Clone Wars Season 7 with the longer hair, I was saddened knowing what was to soon come
I love these vids so informative.
Glad you like them! :D
Very enlightening, thanks for sharing!
I already realised this myself and upon thinking about it made me cry and this video because this video really reminded me how sad this actually is.
Star Wars is the greatest tragedy in all time and space
Or in the 2003 Clone Wars universe, he was ready to kick some ass after his final trial
Is there such an thing as a war-crime when all the combatants on the other side are robots?
Aren't they sort of people?
@@rosesweetcharlotte droids only do what they are programmed to do & thus are victims the same as the clones
It's a war crime regardless. The next time a clone trooper or republic civilians surrender, the separatist are justified to not accept and murder all those who surrender in fear of trickery. That is why it's a war crime, because it breaks the sanctity of surrender. The reason why war crimes exist isn't to protect the opposite sides, but both sides of the conflict to ensure needless violence and deaths are limited, and thus two side agree certain limitations of conduct.
People don't understand this, but the direct penalty of commiting a war crime is not only trials and punishment, but direct effect on the battlefield itself
CW Anakin really brings light to the movie Anakin to me. Since throughout CW we see him mature, become more likable and relatable. He brings that through the beginning of RoTS when he was still the same likable and relatable character, but then Palpatine. Just Palpatine.
Amazing video!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!! :D
@StarForceOne Great video but you made a small mistake. In 1:22 you mentioned episode 12 while everything you described happened in episode 9.
Thanks for pointing that out, sorry hahha. The whole arc is essentially one movie anyway, so it still works 😁
It truly hits me so hard i mean imgine when you are an unlucky person who suddenly gets everything and in one moment life is like " oh we forget you don't even have luck ok to keep things balanced we must take away all what you got " Anakin was truly damaged by the jedi and the sith and turns out he destroyed them both Qui Gon Jin was right
Such a sad story, and to think he became a mere shell of himself.
Lost everything for nothing.
Just imagine how nice it would be if everything went perfectly. Sidious would be defeated without turning Anakin, padme would give birth to Luke and Leia, and they would have a normal life with their mother, father, auntie ahsoka, uncle obi, and uncle rex. The twins would also be trained properly in the ways of the force, and would probably become even stronger jedi than their father.
Anakin hated the sand. He was smiling because he didnt have to deal with sand anymore
Love your videos keep it up
Glad you like them!
ahh man this video is heartbreaking.. Anakin is just a franchise character... but my favorite .. and hearing about the super sharp contrast from the best day of his life to the worst day... man.. that is truly tragically moving
i would never ever cry over something fictitious.. but this was emotional
He was happy because he was in a Jedi Interceptor, which is a starship, which is essentially portable high ground, meaning he could not be defeated. I would be happy too if I were invincible for at least a few minutes. Got ruined though by some guy called FN-2187...
Sidious definitely gave everyone a d!@& punch especially after Ashoka comes back. It also makes sense why Sidious reveals himself to the Jedi, if the news of a former dark apprentice points out that Palpatine is the Sith Lord to the Senate then even if order 66 was a success he would have been exposed with very little recourse but to use the clones as his major support rather than the propaganda of the Jedi trying to takeover the Republic.
Anakin barely gets to rest emotionally...
So sad that Anakin couldn’t be able to reunion with Ahsoka. The next time Anakin and Ahsoka truly meet is when Anakin is a force ghost. It would definitely make sense if Anakin went to visit Ahsoka in the Ahsoka series or in the sequel to Rebels
I always thought it was supposed to show that the 2 were friends since we didn't really get to see that in episode 2
Great content bro
Appreciate it :)
