I read an incredible fanfiction story about them during the travelling onboard the eye of sion, which actually lines up with the show, despite som crazy events happening during the story. Just search for sabine x shin fanfiction eye of sion, and you should find it.

Anakins lesson for Ashoka was to let her know that it’s alright that she needed to let go of the pain and guilt of the past and live

[@danieldrummond404]

…or die!

[@megaunderflow4076]

It was also to show her that being everything Anakin is doesn't make her like Vader, as she helped him prove by choosing to not strike him down.

[@aspecttnd]

@@megaunderflow4076Definitely this. She’s afraid to be herself and tap in to her potential because she could overdo it and become Vader like it’s her destiny. Vader was Anakin’s choice. Ashoka needed to see that she doesn’t have to be that, and now she won’t be afraid.

[@zombi9679]

I figured it was telling her that you know she’s currently dying in the ocean and he’s telling her she needs to live

[@RangerHouston]

@@zombi9679that too. She was afraid to live, to turn out like Anakin did.

[@EricAero]

Did you Notice of all the Actors wielding a lightsaber, Hayden is the most natural. it's an extension of himself. it looks like he doesn't think of it anymore. He mastered the Lightsaber... Nick Gillard's Training mastered ! And for Ahsoka... Fighting Anaking is a mix Maul / Baylan / Vader (agility, tricks, strength) Anakin as all of this. And now we have proof that with good dialogue... Hayden is a real good actor.

[@cooliostarstache5474]

Yeah, this proves without a doubt that it wasn't Hayden's fault, George has just never been that good at dialogue or directing actors, unfortunately.

[@Vashrix]

Hayden & Ewan = lightsaber duelists

[@EricAero]

@@Vashrix OH yeah !!!!

[@GreenFalcon926]

Anakin was great in ep2&3 if your'e trying to imply otherwise. Lucas wanted Hayden to act like that, to mirror his Vader self. Lucas can direct actors, there are countless examples of this. And eps1-3 did have good dialogue... there were just several bad ones.

[@cooliostarstache5474]

@@GreenFalcon926 So, George actually wanted for the dialogue and acting to be bad? Got it, makes sense

[@ShiftyWolf117]

Felt like the longest week of my life. I had lowered my expectations beforehand but they were absolutely blown out of the park. The acting, the score, the costumes. Everything was perfect, I loved everything about this episode. It was so emotional and raw and was beautifully done.

[@dylanburton4955]

I expected any clone wars era stuff to be translated well with Filonis work on that show but it was so damn good. And Anakin/Ahsoka’s interactions felt straight out of the show while also keeping with Hayden’s portrayal in the prequels and mixing it together nicely

[@justinco7741]

Amen! Anakins apperance was just marvelous. It wasnt over the top, it was just perfect for me it just fits in the story

[@neutchain7838]

Filoni gave back so much to the fans of the animated series in this. So well done, Anakin's costume was impeccable.

[@skyraider1718]

This is my favorite Star Wars anything so far

[@Chuckles2505]

Haydens voice is just so so good how he splits the balance between his Anakin and CW Anakin

[@acefalcons4903]

Totally agrees. And I so disagree with Kat’s saying that Matt Lanter’s voice was better than Hayden’s for Anakin in CW, especially when she said she prefers LoTRs. I originally hated the casting of HC in the Prequels, but I was humbly wrong in that because I finally see Hayden’s heart for the real love of the SW lores and all. The live version works of Hayden in Ahsoka representing what Matt Lanter had voiced acted through was truly SEALED Hayden truly was Anakin… and Lanter’s was representing Hayden/Anakin. I was deeply satisfied in my imagination of what live version of Clone Wars would be like if Hayden had acted through the animated actions that Lanter’s voiced acted through. So truly Hayden will forever be the Anakin of our past and our future, just as James Earl Jones will forever be the voice and presence of Darth Vader. Appreciate your saying first of Hayden’s voice, bruh! Many more fans appreciate him as Anakin, especially some of us who started out not liking him… and realized Hayden played Anakin exactly self conflicted with the light and dark of himself as what Lucas wanted…. and many of us who finally appreciate it.

[@ncard00]

It was revealed long ago by a makeup artist on the mandalorian, that Morgan is a nightsister, and also, she has the red clothes, and her hairstyle is very similar to Merrin's in fallen order, at least in the back, Merrin had her hair in 1 "knot" in the back, Morgan has 2, Rey has 3.

[@crandleberrysadie]

"It's magic, basically" Star Wars in a nutshell. Great reaction guys!

[@MeliDMR93]

Ahsoka getting that optimistic sense of adventure back after some time with Anakin is really heartwarming because I don't think Anakin has ever being a symbol of hope to anyone. That's always been Luke and Leia to us. But of course, he would be to the child soldier padawan whom he taught to survive a war.

[@zamhobby9662]

He is hope, it's just Luke and Leia are A New Hope after Anakin fall.....

[@gerardlacroix6015]

Anakin was more like... Adventure and freedom. Hell, he literally was a Child yearning for freedom. And that what made him and Ahsoka work. He wasn't the typical Jedi, he made the jedi "fun".

[@AwesomeJedi182]

I also like how they change the reason of Ahsoka going to this other galaxy now. Before this ahsoka was acting out of fear and Agression, unknowingly. She was actively hunting thrawn and acting out of fear. But now shes going to rescue sabine and ezra. Which is basically a complete 180, shes now going with good intentions, to rescue, with compassion taking the center stage. And shes also free of her past guilt weighing her down , and she acts more like a jedi than she has in these past few eps.

[@tigqc]

You might notice the actress who plays young Ahsoka also played young Gamora in Infinity War. She also played the daughter in Barbie this summer.

[@neutchain7838]

That kid is going places, she was great. That was a the part where the episode could've gone to shit but she was great.

[@thihaaung647]

Seeing live action Rex totally made my day. What a time to live!

[@najtrows]

I just realized how much I want Hayden to do Darth Vader-standalone movies or TV-shows. HE was never the issue, the dialogue was.

[@Natt_Uggla10]

That would be awesome. We kind of already has that, but something they can do is around his perspective. They focus a bit more on Vader.

[@itzelwisteria1819]

I'm always complaining about big corporations milking franchises and whatnot, but as soon as Hayden makes a comeback I become a hypocrite and want him to re-enact the whole Clone Wars for us lmao I love his acting, I wish we could see so much more of him masterfully embodying Anakin (but you know, only if it's good and necessary).

[@PeverellTheThird]

Grateful that the creative teams behind The Mandalorian, BoBF, Kenobi and Ahsoka are taking time to explore the detrimental effects of (C)PTSD caused by the Clone Wars and Galactic Civil War, PLUS showing the respective protagonists of said shows recovering from trauma in their own unique ways.

[@brandond8197]

Ashoka turned into Gandalf there at the end.

[@nguyencs]

Hayden's acting is amazing. Feels like he was plucked out of Clone Wars.

[@neutchain7838]

According to him he watched the animated shows and he loved it and was very grateful of how they treated Anakin in the shows.

[@ncard00]

Hope we get some Anakin as a padawan between ep 1 and 2 in a future season of tales of the jedi, as well as the backstory of Shin and Baylan, with Baylan's relationship with Anakin, and how he found Shin, unless she's his daughter.

[@mmxxiii9503]

2:25 that actually sounded like a blaster 😂 Seeing Rex and part of the Clone Wars in live action, was glorious

[@scepii]

One of the greatest starwars episodes of all time. this episode was literally perfect. Thank you Dave filoni for this!

[@BipolarBLKSheep]

Out of all of this and the emotions I felt the entire time, when Hera says "may the force be with you", for some reason, I cry every time. There is just something about that phrase, spoken by someone with sincerity, that is really special. The best episode of the season, clearly, but I'd go as far as saying this is the best episode of any Star Wars TV show, so far. I hope this isn't the last we see of Anakin, but I fear it might be. I was really hoping for an emotional departure from Ahsoka and Anakin. I wanted to hear her call him "Sky Guy". Maybe see Anakin tell her he's proud of her or something. That's just me being overly emotional and looking for more where it really isn't needed though. This episode was a 10/10 for me.

[@pnagel25]

Tbh I didn’t expect this episode to go the way it did… but man that was one of if not the best experience I have ever felt when it comes to any Star Wars show/movie. I just wish the movies had the same feel to them. But I have faith Dave Filoni is slowly reeling the franchise back to where it was. 10/10

[@detectivesquirrel2621]

Not only does it work as a memory, but it is a typical troupe used to visualise war, the literal "fog of war". So it worked both ways.

[@vocaasyik1579]

All the time since left the Jedi Order and aware what her master become, Ahsoka found it difficult to forgive that. The last lesson that Anakin taught was to accept that past and to make sure Ahsoka will stay true to light path. Maybe that lesson (forgive and accept the past) will be her first step to become "White Ahsoka".

[@rusenakman]

Finally, Ahsoka the White

[@hellowhat890]

11:41 Seeing a live action version of Anakin and Ahsoka crossing their arms and looking at each other was so awesome! Dave Filoni knew exactly what he was doing

[@Schnurriman]

Oh you're from Denmark! Same issue with the waiting here in Berlin. 😂 Love your Channel!

[@DanSolo871]

Ariana Greenblatt's performance in the Battle of Ryloth was very Ahsoka in the Clone Wars series. Her performance with the lightsabers in the Siege of Mandalore was very well done. I'm sure, with her youthful age, she performed her own moves (with the help of Michelle Lee who fought Maul in the Mo-cap). She was a very good casting.

[@neutchain7838]

100% agree. What a complicated role to step into. Not "creating" a character for herself but inhabiting one with such history that has been portrayed from birth to her fifties and beloved by millions. She was outstanding.

[@bhaalgor84]

This episode was pure star wars magic all the way through. One of the best episodes out of all shows i've seen in recent times. So damn good! 😊

[@zazoreal5536]

Everybody was phenomenal this episode, but Hayden switching between Vader and Anakin without effort just gave me chills.

[@primal1233]

I'm glad we got to see live action Captain Rex and Clone Wars in this episode

[@hint1k]

31:30 actually the battle with Balrog happened back in Rebels season 4 episode 13 World Between Worlds. See the 2nd part of Ahsoka and Vader duel on Malakor. Ahsoka used the same move Gandalf did on the bridge of Moria. She destroyed the surface under Vader using her lightsabers, causing him to fall. She died as well, but two years later were saved by Ezra right before Vader killed her. And she got her white clothes in the Epilogue of Rebels. Here in this show Filoni simply build on top that transformation providing more details on how did that happen. Creating a necessary character development for Ahsoka in her own show, cause until this episode it was basically Sabine's show. So this transformation/rebirth of the character was not about being subtle, it is already happened and was well-known in internet as "Ahsoka the White". It was about making it justified enough for the viewers, making it feeling earned by the character and not just happened from nowhere.

[@cmbtking]

Most astounding star wars content I've seen in a VERY long time. Remarkable episode.

[@stmtom2811]

In this and Obi-Wan are by far the best Hayden performances of Anakin yet.

[@michelmorio8026]

7:18 I‘d argue it’s the battle of Ryloth which was still an early Ahsoka/Anakin Clone Wars battle (second last arc of season 1) and we see Twi‘leks in the background. It would also fit thematically cause that’s when Hera found Chopper and the Syndulla Clan got introduced to us 😉

[@thorinwoods2642]

I really like Hayden as Anakin I do agree that Matt Lanter is the voice of Anakin though so seeing Hayden bring that version of Anakin to screen was awesome. The deaging has become so good I’m hoping they give us those unfinished Clone Wars arcs with him and Ewan.

[@redguy2215]

Hayden is a good actor with a bad script. He prepared a lot to renew his role this time (watching all the movies and cartoons) and he did show how good of an actor he can be. Anyway give him a chance and try to, even if just a little, see him as Anakin.

my favourite constant in star wars media is the camera rotation following a hyperspace jump. not every one has the rotation but i noticed it heavy this episode. i had tears rolling the whole time

[@unincognito3689]

The Purrgil being slow is actually why pilots find them as an annoyance. They travel in hyperspace and wonder into Hyperlanes, but because they're so slow they can't move out of the way. This episode even shows how close they get to spaceships.

[@thedarkknight2221]

I loved how this episode showed more of the fact that Ahsoka was sadly both a Jedi AND a child soldier. What’s more is that while while the Jedi were taught to not form attachments to people, she and her master clearly broke that rule and cared for not just their men but their friends and family. The difference is that while Anakin failed and fell to the Dark Side because he couldn’t let go of those he loved, Ahsoka succeeded and learned to let go and move on. After seeing Ahsoka having a moment of catharsis with her master, and letting go of her guilt and pain to more fully embrace the Light Side, Rosario Dawson now truly has become the Ahsoka we remember from Clone Wars! She has now truly risen and has now become tied with Luke Skywalker for me as the greatest Jedi of all time. This is also easily the best performance Hayden has ever given as Anakin, he actually felt more like Anakin from the Clone Wars than the movies. I honestly never thought I would see LIVE ACTION scenes of Clone Wars, or even Hayden in Anakin’s Clone Wars armor!

[@Prince_the_One]

You need to rewatch the movies and stop replacing the official lore with your cartoon shows. Anakin literally tells Padme in Attack of the Clones that compassion is a big part of the Jedi code and Jedi are encouraged to love. What you and a lot of weird fans can't understand is that no attachment DOES NOT MEAN no emotions. You can love someone without fearing losing them.

[@thedarkknight2221]

@@Prince_the_One it was precisely because the Jedi were detached from all things that they fell. If they did allow themselves to love and care for not just civilians but also other Jedi then Ahsoka would never have been screwed over by the council like she was.

12:20 Btw, did you know that according to “Bespin Bulletin” there was a fight scene shot between Anakin (as Hayden Christensen) and Ahsoka (as Savannah Steyn instead of Ariana Greenblatt, at least for that scene) on Mustafar in an alternate-reality-like setting during the "world-between-world like" moments, which they said was cut from the actual episode? In that scene Anakin would have showed her that she couldn't have changed his fate to become Vader even if she were there at that point, which would have taken away a lot of her guilt of her not having been there and not being able to save him, resulting in the now more light-hearted Ahsoka. They cut that scene, maybe cause it wasn't really a memory and/or cause Anakin's message/lesson was a different one? Though I still hope they would release it as a separate video on YT or sth like that, cause I would really like to see what that scene (and Savannah Steyn as Ahsoka) would have looked like and it also explains a bit better imo why Ahsoka is more enlightened and happy at the end.
