      note to self, never tell him when you're planning a surprise party
      Obi Wan:"Hey bud, can't wait for your surprise party next week on the 8th of May at exactly 2:42 pm at your house in the living room just to the right of your dining room and left of your kitchen, i'll be hiding behind your recliner that is in the center of the living room"

      Even if Obi-Wan killed Grievous he would've been risking Republic intel that could've been transmitted at any moment. So forcing him to be on the move was a smart move on Obi-Wan's part.

    Few things to note:
    1. The clones that went up against general grievous are part of the 212th which is the same group that literally punched grievous in the face. You can’t say that the 212 can’t throw hands
    2. This somewhat shows that grievous is still a huge threat. Even with the overwhelming amount of droids, the clones had the advantage of the narrow halls to funnel them through and might’ve even had a chance still. The sheer fact that grievous was on board made the ship already lost
    3. I like how they animated even the engineers fighting back with their blasters as kenobi calls for retreat

    You can tell that obi wan was PISSED for that little show off stunt grievous pulled there to try and demoralize the clones. Most of the jedi, despite the clones being made to be expendable, were very compassionate for the clones. Which makes order 66 so painful for the clones and jedi alike.

But the Republic also suffered a lot of casualities.

      Matthius has a point. The bad guys barely ever win in this show without the victory being phyrric. The only time I can think of when they won, even temporarily, without incurring great losses was on Felicia. Even Ohnaka's Gang took massive amounts of manpower losses. It even happened with Gregor when he was up against dozens, if not hundreds of droids and exposed tbh.
      I ain't hating, but having the Villain's win a genuine, 100% victory sometimes would be nice to see. The heroes in this show get too much plot armor for it to watchable sometimes. Especially during the early seasons.

      Sidious and Dooku had to severely limit the fighting capabilities of the Separatists because of this. Letting intel get into enemy hands, sabotaging Separatist worlds, and especially sending Grievous out on witch hunts. Seriously, for how much they downgraded him from legends, Grievous remains the best Admiral/General the Separatists ever had, and that due to his versatility alone.
      You know what I would've wanted to see? Him leading small teams of Commando Droids, taking out Republic bases in remote regions. With his personally trained Magnaguards arriving with a small battlegroup to help take out the occasional armor. Something like a Transformers Prime treatment, where we spend maybe not half, but like a quarter of the time on the other side of the conflict. See how THEY win with terrifying ease.

    Scenes like this, and several others show that Grievous is damn effective against a single jedi taskforce.

On the Malevolence he was against Obiwan, Anakin, Ahsoka, and Plo Koon. On Felucia he was against Obiwan, Anakin, and Adi Galia - not to mention often being outnumbered in terms of firepower as well since, its basically 1 army vs 3.

    The problem that Obi had with this battle was that despite being a tactical genius in some cases of battle, he is not a fleet commander. If anything all Jedi are only ground commanders. It's weird seeing a Jedi without his assigned admiral at his side like how Anakin always had Yularen. The clones that served as deck officers could only do so much but without a proper admiral they were doomed.

    I just love how Grievous doesn't give a shit about the droids in "his" droid army

      Why would he, they're droids and not particularly unique ones either?

      Anyone notice how only Cody and Obi Wan reacted? The clone next to Cody didn't even look scared.

    This short scene is quite entertaining and surprisingly layered. Such an incredible show.

    Did you notice, over the series, every time they fought, Grievous has gotten better against Kenobi? Getting more hits in with each battle, forcing him to retreat here and even defeating him in the comics as well as the unfinished crystal arch. If Windu hadn't crushed his chest, their final battle may have gone much differently.

      I absolutely adore that one cut scene where Grievous defeats Kenobi in seconds flat, it was from that final utapau arc that was unfortunately cut

    i like how kenobi was focused on the clown under grevious's claw, really shows he cares about the clones under his command.

    You know Grievous has a lot of problems with his characterization in clone wars just because of how he has to lose a lot but this scene I feel really showcases what a threat he is. He drops out of hyper space, curb stomps obi-wans entire fleet, beats the snot out of obi-wan, forces him to scuttle his venator, and then makes it out by the skin of his teeth. Fantastic.

    Honestly this whole sequence was very cool with Grievous the droids boarding Obi Wan’s venator. I just wish we would’ve had more scenes like it, or it could’ve been longer, maybe even a full episode dedicated to something like this

    I like to think kenobi had that message prepared several months in advance just in case something like this happened
