hi, which version of the barracuda headset did you have on? I like how they look and I want to buy :(
@@itsXxamyyyxx It's the Razer Barracuda Pro!
You do know this fight they modeled from is not what happened. when he fell in the ground I dropped in and fought with my lightsaber with rocks stabbing him from the back. the other iteration is I have him climb out after falling and ragdoll him against the canyon whilst dueling making him sleep close to death. I only allowed this iteration for the show.
@@EntertainmentFan11 I have. seeking it
Hi🌺hope your doing well 🍪🥛🍯🍫
'He betrayed and murdered your father.' -Obi Wan Kenobi
'When I left you, I was but a learner. Now, I am the master.' -Darth Vader
'When I left you, I was but a learner. Now, I am the master.'
_Yes, but no. I left you. After I beat shit out of your body..Twice. :))
I dont remember granting you the goddamn title of master - Mace Windu probably
@@deeproot9826 if it came from Mace, it would had a MF bomb or two in there.
Only a master of evil, Darth.
"My powers have doubled since last we met, Obi-Wan." Oh wait, wrong quote. But that would have also been fitting. haha
I commend the acting of Ewan and Hayden. I thought some of Hayden's acting was awkward in the prequels, especially in scenes with Padme. He is Vader though and he owned it in this series. He did not have very many scenes, but this final one was a masterpiece.
But there's one thing I always notice about Hayden in the prequels and hear me out, whenever he isn't talking he's perfect, it's just when he has to say those terribly written and awkward lines that he struggled, and true maybe a better actor could have made it work but if you give him a good script he's the perfect choice in my opinion
It's amazing to see so many emotions he conveys from his eye only, under the crack of his mask. Either he's secretly a very briliant actor or he's indeed love his role as Vader/Anakin so much.
@@davepresley4689 I'm with you. I think ultimately Hayden was too inexperienced to bring "technically sound dialogue" to what was ultimately poorly written character dialogue, and poor direction.
It hurt his career. Good lines and direction, and he's great.
To be fair hayden had to work with very silly dialogue in the prequels
@@davepresley4689 I completely agree. The prequel cast was full of talented actors who have been great in other movies. It came down to Lucas, a terrific ideas man and universe builder, writing and directing with much less collaboration than the OT. The least criticized SW movie, Empire Strikes Back, wasn’t directed by him.
I think it takes talented and collaborative writers and actor-focused directors to take these stories and allow the characters to really shine. Clearly Hayden and Ewan are great actors, and Reva’s actor is too but her character wasn’t written as well as the others. I’m excited to see that actor in other roles.
Sorry the the reupload - this video wasn’t working on mobile for a lot of people, hopefully it’s working now! 🤍
It’s alright
It is now
You did good👍💙.
It’s fine
you are so gorgeous and you did another great job on this video!!! And cute dog too!!! But now that the Kenobi series are over I feel like it's going to be so long before we get a next one,, I'm not sure if it's going to be that Ahsoka Tano show next and I hope it is
I love how when Vader is talking to Obi-Wan about how he didn't kill Anakin Skywalker, the blue aura of Kenobi's lightsaber is reflected on his face, showing that a little bit of Anakin is seeping through, but when Vader tells Obi-Wan that he will die, the aura off of Vader's crimson red lightning is seen across his face. Showing that the dark side has taken over
That line when Vader admits to Kenobi that he killed Anakin also reflects Ben's point of view to Luke about how his father died
You also see his eyes change colour after Vader says he killed Anakin.
Maybe it was his way of saying "I forgive you, I did this to myself" ? I mean right before Vader taking over again lol. His scream afterwards really sounded like a cry for help.
@@brieuxbayot6823 Nah, it was Vader twisting his words. The sliver of Anakin remaining might have wanted to mean it this way, but Vader used it to mentally hurt Obi-Wan; since even before Mustafar, he was always Darth Vader. There was no Anakin, he was dead and gone the second he became Sidious' apprentice.
And the faint blue light reflected on Obi-wan's face as he accepted that his friend and brother Anakin is truly dead.
Okay second time’s the charm. Obi-wan and Ahsoka taking the left and right of Vader’s helmet violently.
Which contrast Luke taking the entire helmet off peacefully. I like these small details. Which to me shows Luke truly redeemed Vader and was the only being(aside from maybe Leia) that could do so. They represented the past which he heavily resents while Luke is the future. Say what you will about the series but that is some good symbolism.
Yea both Ashoka and kenobi tried to redeem Vader but only luke succeeded
Blazecap - solid points about his helmet and it's destruction allowed us to see the man underneath at different times of his life although 'peacefully' is relative since Luke pretty much had to beat his father into submission plus take of his cyborg hand to get to that moment
@@joeg6478 well if we’re being honest during the fight it looks like Vader isn’t even trying to defeat Luke even when he throws himself against the railing it looks like he willingly let look win however it could obviously be because of the choreography back then but I still like to think that Vader let Luke beat him
@@vrbty - Remember Vader threatened to go after Leia basically calling Luke out so he'd unleash all his rage on him and finally give in to his darkness but Vader was just too old and couldn't handle Luke's onslaught. plus i don't think Vader is the type to ever willingly lose a fight to anyone, even his son
ITS LIKE POETRY IT RHYMES
I liked how Beru had more to say than her “Hello” in all three of the prequels.
I like how they have Leia more excited to have Lola back than getting to see Obi. Because that’s exactly how a 10 year old would react.
I wonder when Vader screamed after obi wan he maybe meant it like “don’t you dare leave me again” or something. You can really hear the pain in Vader’s voice like a little part of Anakin in Vader was hoping for obi wan to maybe say or do something but was shattered the moment obi left and walked away again. Idk, there is just something about him screaming after kenobi that I can’t stop thinking about 🤔. Beautiful episode anyway, definitely got me crying 😅😂
I was thinking the same like the way he was screaming at obi-wan was like a cry for help
Obi straight up left this mf barely alive, gasping for air, twice 💀
nah i disagree, i think Vader was screaming becuz deep down he wanted Obi to finish the fight and put him out of his own misery knowing his old Master was the only remaining Jedi powerful enough to end his suffering
"KENOBIIIIII" vibes from that scene
@@joeg6478 well canonly vader is stronger but i dont know why in this show they make obiwan win
When Vader says **"I am not your failure"** , his face is covered in blue light as if Anakin Is accepting the apology from Obi wan . Then his face turns red , when Vader returns with darkness . This was so symbolising in a way that even though He's Darth Vader there's is still some Anakin left in him only those who really know him can take out .(Another instance Ashoka ) and Finally Master Qwai Gon for 5secs after two and a half decades
Overally what a great short series which greatly connects the events , also keeping the characters comically accurate . I will be not mad or sad if we don't get a season 2 .
10:52 The fact that Vader has now told Obi-Wan... and later Ashoka that Anakin was dead... twice...
That hits home really hard...
Anakin can't do anything right. Not even staying dead.
Reva would normally wipe the floor with Owen and Beru. But she just had a lightsaber plunged through her body and she is lucky it did not strike a vital organ and that lightsabers cauterize the wounds. She barely uses the force and when she did it was barely a swipe to knock the water out of the man's hand. She is likely using all her force power to just remain standing after the wound she suffered. The wound would also mean she is not as physically able to fight as she normally would. Thus Owen and Beru are able to mount some sort of defense. As for Owen missing the first shot, it looks like he hit her shoulder pauldron. It almost seemed like Reva sensed it and moved so it hit her shoulder pauldron instead of her head.
Lightsabers melt through reinforced blaster proof doors - so if by cauterize the wound you mean instantly boil her internal organs then yes, her survival and subsequent ability to travel, fight and carry a young boy for a few km's is very "lucky" indeed.
@@Lakrimoz Light sabers heat is concentrated in the blade. Otherwise the lightsabers would have lit Qui-gons hair on fire when he assumes the lightsaber form Ataru. Not to mention the amount of times they would have their flesh burnt to a crisp in some of the scenes where they lock sabers.
-
As far as I know, there has never been any indication that a lightsaber would do as you say.
-
This reply is not to mock you, as what you commented makes sense in reality. But this is a fictional story and we honestly do not know how the lightsabers work exactly, but lightsabers never seem to radiate heat and it all seems to be contained within the narrow beam of the blade. Qui-gon even has to work the blade while melting the blaster doors and it took some time for the metal to heat up and spread beyond the point of the lightsaber blade.
-
This is not the first time we have seen people survive being stabbed by a lightsaber.
@@s.anthonyulibarri2488 No - It usually only takes one stab to kill with lightsabers to the mid-section, this is well noted. Not sure who we've seen survive that, happy for a reference if you have one. Look at Sidious when the Jedi arrive to arrest him - he stabs and strike them down with single blows. Maul maybe - but he gets sliced quickly, and he isn't human.
Go watch that Qui-gon door scene again - he works it a bit by twisting, but ultimately it shows that if you hold a blade in place that heat exponentially increases. There is literally glowing molten metal around the blase from the second its inserted, now imagine that was liquid and flesh with a much lower flash point. Her insides would be a BBQ. Darth holds the blade inside Reeva for quite a while too, he skewers her entirely and holds it there for a good 5 seconds.
And even if it didn't radiate heat, even if it "cauterized" the wound (reality is cauterization isn't a pressure seal, moving around would be agonizing and tear the scar tissue), you'd have a literal hole through your body - you aint walking around after that.
Sure its all fiction, and i'm willing to suspend my disbelief to a degree - but there's a limit.
@@Lakrimoz Key word, usually. You do realize that lightsabers have a function to raise and lower the intensity of its beams. They can lower the intensity so it only leaves a slight sting and small burn. This is done to set lightsabers to a training mode that the younglings use. They wanted to leave Reva alive to suffer her defeat. To Vader and the Grand Inquisitor that is a greater humiliation and suffrage than killing her would be. If you want to force yourself to dislike this series, that is up to you. There are reasonable explanations, especially given that you do not know every detail about a lightsaber. It is a fictional weapon and they do not have to work to the specifications you imagine. Accept it.
-
Oh and before you use our current knowledge of the physics of plasma and say, but that is not how plasma works. Artificial gravity in their ships and repulsor lifts that allow enormous ships to float in atmospheres is not how gravity works! But you are okay suspending your disbelief for that right?
@@s.anthonyulibarri2488 Well since you were unable to give me an example outside of this show where someone is stabbed in the midsection and survived a lightsaber strike, I guess we can go ahead and change "usually" to "always".
Your mental gymnastics to explain why she survived is humorous, I supposed Reva also had the safety on when she stuck the Grand Inquistor? But lets say you're correct and that was the writer's intention, its terrible writing to just leave that to the audience to guess - especially since your theorey of "safety" blades is never mentioned in the films and certainly out of character for Sith OR Jedi - why would Jedi use full settings at all when they could "stun" their opponents in a less horrific way?
Just because something is "fictional" doesn't mean you can just do anything, it undermines the lore and audience investment in the universe - again, very poor writing. Maybe a giant spaghetti monster used the force to heal Reva - its all just fiction so who cares right?
As for the physics of how things work - this is a work of scifi, so its "believable" that they have power sources or technology that allows massive objects to ignore gravity and travel through hyperspace - so I agree its believable for a lightsaber strength to be tuned... but again this is never explained or demonstrated to the audience nor have I encountered any situation in film or games where the strength was adjusted for a fight. So while you can make up believable fantasy in your head-cannon to explain things, its doesn't gel with the existing universe and audience understanding of how lightsabers work. Now if you're going to quote some novel or comic as reference - its an asinine point as most film or tv viewers aren't going to have that background knowledge.
When Vader said "he is not just any Jedi", he proofed this by holding his lightsaber with both hands when he faced Kenobi again.
After showing their relationship and bond in this series, when Leia says “Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi, you’re my only hope.” in the first film, it gives it more weight, and when he sacrifices himself to Vader, one of the last things he sees is Luke and Leia together, and escaping.
And then she names her son after him.
@@SwiftJustice Oh yeah!😭
no, it doesn't make sense, after Obi died, lea wasn't sad but luke, even though lea has a deeper connection with obi-wan. this retcon sucks, Kennedy just wanted more important women on the show.
@@shangsterk2138 She became stronger as she got older. Unlike Luke, LEIA grew up fighting for the Rebellion, and knew the risks and sacrifices. Even when she gets to the rebel base, she says, “ We have no time for our sorrows, Commander. We must use the information in this R2 unit to help plan the attack.” The importance of the mission come first.
And you’re talking about Leia - a character we’ve known for decades. How is that about “(more) important women”?
@@JedHead77 She wasn't affected at all by the death of Han or the destruction of Alderaan ;)
and i mean more important women in the series, i don't mean that it has to be new female characters. This series wasn't about Obi or Vader, it was mostly about Leia and Reva. By the way, Leia hasn't really evolved, she's always been who she is according to the show. If you enjoyed the series, I'm happy for you, but for me it's another disappointment from Woke Wars.
The finale we all really needed all these years, the epic rematch we all wanted to see. Everything about this was amazing! So many noteworthy moments. Great reaction as always, Alyss!!!
"She should be way better at fighting than him"
Well, to be fair, she did get impaled by a lightsaber just a few hours ago. It's frankly amazing that she can even walk, much less fight.
This was such a perfect finale for Obi-Wan Kenobi. Not only did we get one of the single greatest lightsaber duels in history, with both Vader and Kenobi at their absolute prime, but we also had the very emotionally powerful moment of Obi-Wan talking with Vader and finally coming to terms with the fact that Anakin wasn’t his failure but that Vader destroyed Anakin on his own.
Also they could’ve ended it with Ewan McGregor saying “Hello there” with absolute perfection, but they also FINALLY gave us Qui-Gon Jinn!!!
What are you smoking nerd?
This cap was totally incredible, the battle between Kenobi and Vader, the references, the feelings, puff, THIS IS STAR WARS; Now I hope an individual Vader project is confirmed, he has a lot of potential.
Loved this episode! They managed to wrap everything up in a good way that leads nicely into A New Hope. I liked the little moment where they realize Leia has to forever pretend not to know Ben (explaining the formality of the holo-message vs her reaction when Luke tells her). Plus, that Vader/Kenobi fight was badass! The whole mixing of Hayden's and James Earl Jones' voices was masterful! And we finally got a Neeson cameo! Definitely the best Star Wars series!
So....any chance you'll react to Ms Marvel next? I really think you'd enjoy it.
That rematch went hard! The Obi Wan vs Darth Vader we needed! a great pace and hard hitting even that half Mask Anakin connection with Obi-Wan made me Cry 🥺
I loved those few surprises at the end too!
All round Amazing show! Easily one of my favorite Star Wars series.
Hey, congrats to Hayden on portraying the greatest villain in the history of film. And congrats to Hayden on portraying one of the most heartbreaking characters in all of film. Really, Hayden gets a lot of shit that he really doesn't deserve. But his performance as Darth Vader was incredibly sad.
Darth Maul: “KENOBIIIIIIIIIIIII”
Darth Vader: “OBI-WANNNN”
*What is it with Obi-Wan Kenobi and Sith Apprentices screaming his name into the void lmao*
Not only a phenomenal reaction- but your reactions are so well produced with a full-screen picture of the show-and your gorgeous face in the circle with the fantastic commentary. Loved your excitement.
The Duel between Kenobi and Vader was so thrilling and emotional, I definitely teared up a little bit. Kinda wish this series was longer, it was rath enjoyable
I think it's getting a season 2. Both Ewan and Hayden said they wanted a S2. Its first episode was also the most popular ever on Disney +
This whole thing with reva made no sense what so ever. First has no problem almost torturing a child,chooses THE WORST time to attack Vader after waiting 10 years for a chance,then goes after Luke for “vengeance”? Such a waste of time. She would have done better in her own episode or season.
Great reactions to the series finale, Alyska!!!🎬👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Congratulations on your sponsor. I always like to see talented reactors doing well!
love this series all in all. it really fills up and seals down the gap between the sequels and the OG.
I loved how the chasing scene music from TESB, the Imperial March, Leia's theme and the Force theme were used.
Interesting thing too: when Vader's shuttle lands, it's the same sounds as from some of the ships in end scenes from RotS.
I want to mention something here. What I think is just absolutely awesomely metaphored is the mask of Vader. In Rebels there is Ahsoka who damages his right side of the mask where a little of his true self comes out for a brief moment. The same happens in Obi-Wan-Kenobi series but with the left side of his mask. Both of them are the only people that are still alive who were able to touch him and make him step into the light briefly. But only his son Luke will eventually be the one who is able to fully turn him back to the light side and will be the only one to take of his full mask. Just thought about this and my mind was blown as I think this was done deliberately and is absolutely incredible.
“Obi is really f**king him up!” OMG. I can’t breathe. 🤣🤣🤣
I imagine you were able to REALLY immerse yourself in the episode thanks to those Razer Barracuda wireless headphones! Good stuff, Alyce! Thanks for the content!
if you look closely you can actually see Vader/Anakin release a tear drop after obi wan says sorry.
8:00 Finally Anakin gets the high ground. 😂
and he still loses to Obi-Wan 😂
Obi wan has now beaten maul, grievous and Vader whilst having the low ground
He still lost.
😂
Idk if Obi could have ended it tho. At that point he was extra emotional hearing Anakin's voice and the conflict in Vader during the battle with his inner Anakin was gone. He probably could have but Vader, based on Disney's cannon is extra dangerous when his mask is damaged.
The actual reason why he can't end Vader is because PLOT NEEDS TO CONTINUE.
“I have failed you Anakin. I have failed you”! Obi-Wan Episode III.
Most intense and emotional finale, especially the battle between Vader and Obi Wan. Pararells between the exposed cracked helmet with Ahsoka and Obi Wan. Chills! Also we finally get Qui-Gonn!! Hoping for season 2!
Great reaction! This was a hell of an episode! Talk about savin the best for last. May the force be with you!
I met Bonnie Piesse (Aunt Beru) and Ian McDiarmid (Palpatine) at Washington State Summercon this last weekend. I respect them both so much for keeping the final episode a total secret. There were so many fans badgering them that I couldn't stand it.
But they and the staff kept gently reminding us not to spoil or pester them. Im glad they allowed us to enjoy the finale.
13:30 Lots of people at con were dying to know if he cameos in Kenobi. He respectfully told us to just wait and see. I imagine if this episode had premiered when he said these words, we would have gone nuts.
I just wish the whole series was as powerful as this episode was
9:30 “Get him Obi! Get him! You thought this was over Darth Vader? Hmmmmmmmm?” 👊👊👊
8:00
Darh vader: It's over Obiwan!! I have the high ground!
She totally pulled a New Hope on us. "Run, Luke, run!"
Deborah Chow seems like a great director. Her shots of the Obi/Vader fight were amazing.
Well, glad even a series like this has an audience.
It kinda felt like the series was rushing through most of the previous episodes, and now I see why. They were probably eager to get that incredible character moment out of their system. My biggest complaint is between the shaky cam and the dark environments, I regularly got motion sickness from this series. But aside from that, the writing overall very much honored the characters. Reva's character arc was a big surprise. There were rumors her story would end stupidly, but it ended very Star Wars-like and she stole my heart without stealing the show. And the portrayal of Darth Vader here stands shoulder to shoulder with the original trilogy and even makes shifts in his character between Episode V and VI even more believable.
The last episode closed all the continuity gaps and managed to tell a necessary story, I think. Leia is smart and Ben swore her to secrecy, so her formality in her ANH message makes sense, she was being cautious. Ben's lie to Luke about who killed Anakin was more a reflection of Vader's own views and Obi-Wan coming to accept that perspective for himself... retroactively makes Obi-Wan a better person, less of a manipulative bull spit artist and more of a complex character, who never stopped wanting to do right, resorting to fighting dirty to ease his own guilt, and more just that he had the hope that some part of his friend remained stamped out of him. I've been in arguments for years over how Ben wasn't entirely the wise mentor many fans believed him to be, and now I'm happy I don't have to argue against him being the wise mentor or even a good person anymore. I'm pretty happy to be proven wrong on that count.
I absolutely love that Ben got to tell Leia about her parents and specifically how she reminded him of them, and her reaction was so wise and grateful. That moment got me more than anything else... Like Obi-Wan still honored who they were, and Leia gracefully accepted those qualities as something to aspire to herself. Made all the slow burn stuff with Leia worth it. They wrote and cast a perfect young Leia, Vivien did incredible.
Motion sickness over shaking and dark.
You better go to a doctor for that.
One legged squats are easier holding onto something with one hand. It also helps to step into the squat getting a full stretch.
The fight between Kenobi and Vader was a masterpiece of film, when kenobi apologises to Anakin it really got me, this episode gave me a happiness I don't think I've experienced since I was a child.
If it hadn't been for that very disappointing ep 4, I would have called this show magnificent straight up. What an amazing last episode.
they did a good job adapting adult leia's different looks for young leia. from her cloud city colors to her endor colors to finally looking just like her very first kenner action figure, buns, holster, and all. 😄
LOVE your videos regarding Obi Wan, thank you so much! You are very interesting and a real, true FAN! I agree that the flashbacks with Anakin and their relationship and how and why it developed that way. They DID have good times as well as training times and commradarie times when they fought together...want to see that so much
That scene between Vader and Obi-Wan was one of the best scenes in all of Star Wars. And the way Vader smirked as he said he was the one who killed Anakin? That was just brutal. Shows how evil Vader truly is.
Obi-Wan in ANH: “He betrayed and murdered your father.”
Vader in Obi-Wan finale: “I am not your failure, Obi-Wan. You didn’t kill Anakin Skywalker; I did.
One of the critical scenes in all of Star Wars imo
Yes been waiting for Alyska's reaction to this mind blowin' finale
God mode Obi whooped Vader’s ass
18:10 On that front, from what I could gather on social media, most people who vibed with The Last Jedi, myself included, are also vibing with the show! I am definitely curious about casual viewers' reactions too!
This has so many twilight of the apprentice references and I love it!!
Imo, Obi-Wan sparing Vader and saying sorry to Anakin made him at peace with everything and that is how was able to talk to Qui-Gon and achieve the zen state we saw in New Hope
Paused on 15:21
A young farm-boy Alyska is happy to meet Ewan Macgregor
I like how the grand inquisitor had the good sense not to say anything when Vader ordered the ship to follow Kenobi 😁
I love your reaction videos to this series as soon as I finish an episode I go straight on to watch your video 😊😊 they have to do a season 2!!!!
So glad to hear you watched Rebels!!! It’s such a good show and important to the continuity.
When Vader screamed Obi wan, remind me of Maul screaming Kenobi!!!
This was such an amazing finale! Literally had everything I was hoping for! Another perfect reaction too Alyce!
Definitely the best episode of the series (kinda wished they had Cal kestis help saved luke) kinda of a stretch but ehh
7:22: I lost it when you said "Me when I'm playing Dark Souls!!" 😂🤣
The canyon Obi Wan and Qui Gon go into is the canyon that Anakin raced through in Episode 1 prequel
He could have ended it.
But PLOT NEEDED TO CONTINUE WITH LUKE
😂
And we finally get an answer to how Vader got that big scar on hishead which didn't happen during the initial battle on Mustafar :D Anyone else get the impression they redid the ending, one to give us the cameo we have been wanting but also to leave it open ended for a season 2. It could also overlap with events to be seen in Andor maybe?
i love the parallels between the fights of Obi wan and Vader and Ahsoka against Vader. Like Vader saying: "Then you will die!" to both of them. The best one is that in both Vader's helmet is cut into halfs and you can hear Anakins voice like in Obi wans case to apologise to anakin and in Ahsoka's that she finds out what Anakin has become.
It's an odd mirror, both times it's the same side of the mask that gets destroyed, Vader says very similar lines.
I absolutely loved the link between this episode and ROTJ:
Obi-wan: "Then my friend is truly dead."
Luke (ROTJ): "Then my father is truly dead."
I will say that the fight between Obi-Wan and Vader is fast and intense. Better than the sequels. There I said it. And I get people's hate to the sequel's choreography. But I also think we've taken the Star Wars lightsaber duels (live action at least) for granted. Remember, in order to perform the choreography as seen in the prequels, it takes practice after practice after practice. On top of that, dedication and commitment. It just so happens that Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christensen got the "right" choreographers and that's why they're able to do what they do, especially the Mustafar duel from Episode III. While this series' fights are not exactly like the prequels, we should be grateful that Ewan and Hayden are able to retain some of their muscle memory from their trainings.
Also, I think the reason why people criticize the sequel's choreography is because of the lack of jedi stances. The stances is what made the prequels' lightsaber fights so memorable. Here, we see Obi-Wan using his signature stance against Vader, like he did in the prequels.
Weird that the flagship star destroyer couldn't spare a couple of shuttles and tai fighters to follow and destroy that other ship. Too many holes to mention in this new series and way to much exposition. They should be more delicate with the growth of Leia and Luke they deserved better.
Vader has tunnel vision. And doesn’t care about all those people. “All he’ll see is me.”
I agree, it's a Star Destroyer Vader, it can chase them if you're going to take the personal shuttle to chase him? And why couldn't they use parts from their dropship that had a working hyperdrive to fix the bigger ships hyperdrive, or get the most vulnerable out on the dropship instead? Weirdly, I felt like most of the "chase" scenes in this series felt... kind of dumb? There were a lot of them and a lot of times it never really felt the escape was earned, just the chaser basically letting the chased go pr being unable to catch up for mo real reason. I loved the cinematography, but some of the weird story beats and the chase scenes spoiled most of the other things (which I did genuinely enjoyed). It almost feels like they started their story planning with an epic battle between Vader and Obi-wan and then worked backwards.
Yes as much as I dislike the whole series, I must say Obi Wan x Vader scene here is personally touching
I only like this part that's it.
This episode was by far the most Star Wars thing I’ve seen since Rogue One. After getting off to a somewhat stilted beginning the director Deborah Chow redeemed herself completely with this episode. The duel between Ben and Vader was epic! Not only was it visually stunning and beautifully choreographed but it also had all the emotional tension you’d expect. And it ended the same way their first encounter did…with Vader defeated and helpless and Ben just walking away instead of killing him. Poetic.
The few moments we saw Vader’s face were absolutely chilling. Especially when he told Ben that he’d killed Anakin. The evil on his face was heart stopping. It really gives us a glimpse into how far down the rabbit hole Anakin has fallen.
Fun fact: the middle name of the girl that played Leia is the same as Galen Erso’s wife in “Rogue One”…Lyra.
May the force be with you. ✌🏼
I'm really happy this series was very different in feel than Mandalorian. Mando is incredible television; Boba series as well. Kenobi was a great series about the Jedi. I appreciated it and I appreciated how well Anakin/Darth Vader was represented in this. Incredible final battle. It rocked.
I sent you an email regarding this Alyska. Be well.
7:22 You when you were playing Fallen Order. XD
"How the hell did he survive that?"
If you knew anything about Star Wars Force lore, you'd know it's a well known Jedi ability called 'Tutaminis'.
this last ep makes a grown man crying 😭
This episode was perfect,I need to watch it again :)
“Lifting rocks” 🪨
"This is Master Obi-Wan Kenobi. I regret to report that both our Jedi order and the Republic have fallen, with the dark shadow of the Empire rising to take their place. This message is a warning and a reminder for any surviving Jedi, trust in the Force. Do not return to the temple, that time has passed and our future is uncertain. We will each be challenged; our trust, our faith, our friendships. But we must preserve, and in time a new hope will emerge. May the Force be with you, always."
Best Lightsaber duel since Revenge of The Sith.
Wow Vader now has his own Kenobi moment
Been waiting for this reaction vid since watching it like 4 hours ago!!
Viewers: man TH-cam recommendations are being boring lately-
Kenobi Clips: *Hello There!*
This finale rocks and literally Obi-Wan throwing rocks at Vader
this time with 1080p? love you xD
Perfect episode and great ending!
I love the conversation between Kenobi and Vader. You can see how much Vader took over.
Legit cried at “You didn’t kill Anakin Skywalker. I did”
May the force be with you.
Such an amzing finale!
The reason Owen is holding his own is she is not only injured but is conflicted.
This was a great episode 100%👍 and it's so sad 😥. I saw the open side mask of his yellow red eye just like the scene from the animated rebels when Asoka saw a cut mask yellow red eye Anakin. Princess Leia is so adorable while she's little. Obi Wan says "hello there" to little Luke even Qui Gon appears. What a cliffhanger. Thanks for being part of your reaction watching with you Alyska. The circle is now completed but the Saga continues.🌟.
This episode was good love the video Alaska stay motivated Dream big 1 mill on the way
He calls him Darth. "Obi-Wan once thought as you do" = Obi-Wan once also believed Anakin was alive
I give Owen credit for noticing Reva is weak from her stab wound.
Good job with the ad! 👏🏼
This episode had me crying the entire time.
The Force is strong with this one
I am sure if Oby hadn't destroyed Vader's helmet, he would have killed him for sure... seeing Anakin broke Obi Wan to his core.
There’s a small detail in their fight that I don’t see people mention as often. It’s like you said, usually when we see Vader fight, like in their first encounter, in Rebels, in Rogue One or nearly any other time, he looks so effortless as he holds his saber in one hand. In this fight, he holds it with two hands at one point.
I really love your Razer headphones Alyce. Also what a fantastic episode to end the series. Hello there! 15:23
Obi-Wan : panic rolls ! panic rolls ! panic rolls ! Alyska : Just like me in Dark Souls! :D Great eipisode! Loved it. Loved the review, thanks.
