[@HyperspaceCafe]

The one thing Phantom Menace left me with was that the Jedi can be easily killed if they're not centered and age will catch up to you depending on your species even with the force prolonging your life. When Anakin says to Qui Gon that no one can kill a Jedi. Qui Gon tells him nope. I feel like Jedi died in the handfull all the time. They can be overwhelmed and distracted and wore down. Phantom menace showed me that being a Jedi was a terrible life lol.

[@piercinglikelightproductio9382]

It sounded like Qui-gon was trying too talk to Anakin in episode 2, but he was to focused on killing the Tuskan Raiders that he couldn't hear him. Yoda was probably just the only one who could hear him.

[@keyseronthewire]

Well... That moment within Attack of the Clones when Anakin is slaughtering the Tusken Raiders after the death of his mother... We hear a ripple of Qui-Gon's voice yelling, "ANAKIN!" Yoda was able to faintly hear this while sensing that Anakin was in terrible pain... I don't think he would be able to outright talk with him... I imagine Obi-Wan was barely fortunate enough to reach out to Anakin to show him how to become a ghost as he transitioned into the force. He'll talk with Obi-Wan I'm sure... He may even tell him that he's tried reaching out to Anakin but cannot... Leave it to the will of the force after that or something.

He does talk to Anakin in clone wars tho

[@keyseronthewire]

Yes, I love when that happened, but it was only on Mortis though, and it's never definitively stated in there that it's actually him... Nor do Obi-Wan and Anakin 100% believe it was actually him, especially Obi-Wan as stated by Anakin.

Yoda then went on his own journey to further his connection to the force via Qui-Gon as a guide.

[@SKYWALKERDFS]

Qui-Gon knew that he could not interfear with Anakins destiny. Just like Kenobi told luke he could not interfear when confronting his father.

[@Kevinskcirdneh]

Balance he did bring, if the force needs balance, then it was the light that was shining too bright....so Anakin brought about the dimming of that light and then took out the imbalance in the darkness. Also, maybe once Qui-Gon became one with the force he could see the path Anakin must take to restore the balance. Maybe not all of the steps, but the path.

[@emkenobi]

I can’t imagine Liam not being a part of Kenobi. Even if it’s a minimal role it just doesn’t make sense to not show Obi-Wan speaking with Qui-Gon. Especially since we know he’ll want to discuss what happened to Anakin and share his regrets about it

[@tomanyfandoms279]

Maybe Qui Gon will almost get through to Vader but Palpatines control over Vader will keep him from being able to do anything with Qui Gone advice and that will somehow cause him more anger.

[@Rhyto]

Qui-Gon's presence in the series after his death has been a marvelous feature used to guide characters to progress towards enlightenment about The Force. His interaction with Yoda during the Clone Wars series was amazing in giving insight into becoming One with The Force after death. _Honestly it's given me questions as to how Qui-Gon learned this technique..._ In novels pertaining to Kenobi's time alone on Tatooine he has also appeared briefly to give glimmers of hope and insight during the rising age of the Empire. _While I haven't read enough novels on the matter, I'm sure others have much more insight and details on this at length._ Great Video! Loved pondering over this topic.

I think it would be very interesting to see Qui-Gon speak to Anakin(Vader) just before the events where Luke turns himself in on Endor.

Speaking of Vader being mostly Anakin or lesser, I do wonder what would've happened if Vader had found Ashoka early, much earlier. Possibly around the Kenobi show, or only a few years after ROTS.

She couldn't do it too early, as the trauma was too fresh, but she couldn't do it too late either.

I appreciate this theory, and seeing Qui-Gon again, or hearing him in depth, would be fantastic. Lets see. We can assume he'd be willing after his TROS voice cameo. So lets put him in something proper, give him a bit more of a cameo/role and see it happen. If anyone he'd speak with Kenobi though. Just my thoughts!

Anakin fights Greedo in the street because he is called cheater. He also gets mad at padme for calling him a slave. Anakin was always angry

[@wickideazy]

I have a couple of theories as to why Qui-Gon did not reach out to Anakin after Mustafar, both based in the fact that I've read "Dark Lord: The Rise of Darth Vader" multiple times and have contemplated this very question. 1. If they do take elements from that novel, then Vader is fully (well, 99.9%, which is close enough for statistical purposes) immersed in the dark side by the time of the Kenobi show. And as you yourself explained in another video, Force ghosts don't just manifest to everyone in the room, just to those with whom they have a powerful connection (hence why Luke could see Obi-Wan, Yoda, and Anakin at the end of ROTJ but none of the dozens of people around him could). Qui-Gon could have tried to reach out to Anakin, he could have been trying the entire time, hell he could have been shouting himself hoarse (metaphorically) but Vader being Vader, as deeply enmeshed in the dark side as he was, wouldn't have been able to hear him. And even if the part of him that was still Anakin COULD hear Qui-Gon... 2. Vader would have rejected any thought of communing with Qui-Gon anyway. As Qui-Gon himself noted in the novel, Vader consciously avoids anything that would or could threaten to awaken the core of him that is Anakin. Speaking with Qui-Gon would be very, very high on that list of things that Vader would be avoiding. In fact, from his new, twisted POV, Vader would no longer respect Qui-Gon; he'd look down upon him with scorn and derision, for two reasons. First, I can see Vader blaming Qui-Gon for his (Vader's) state of being. If Qui-Gon had trained Anakin, maybe he would have been a better Jedi. Maybe he would have been able to defeat Palpatine and become the hero he always dreamed of being. Maybe the Order wouldn't have fallen if Qui-Gon's wisdom had been there to guide them. But it wasn't. Anakin got stuck with Obi-Wan, an inferior teacher, instead of Qui-Gon, because Qui-Gon was dead. Thus, to Vader, everything that happened to him was Qui-Gon's fault for being too weak to deal with Maul, who himself was nowhere near as powerful as Vader. Vader would hate Qui-Gon perhaps even more than Obi-Wan, for the simple fact that Qui-Gon's "weakness" resulted in him "abandoning" Anakin.

[@williamlatham9246]

In 2 Qui-Gon shouted and Yoda heard him in the Force. I think Anakin couldn't hear Qui-Gon because he was enraged, tapped into the dark side to fuel his hatred of the sand people and there was no way he could hear Qui-Gon's voice. As Vader I believe he would be deaf to any pleas from Qui-Gon or anyone alive except for Luke, as we know, the voice of his son was the only voice that broke through his armor and awoken Anakin Skywalker.

[@dianesinger9729]

I would like to think Qui-Gon would try to reach Anakin but Vader would stop him as he is too angry

[@captainrice09]

i hope it’s only a few seconds to a min bc a full fledged convo with qui gon and vader would be breaking canon cause he is still evil or atleast “freshly evil” so to speak. at that point their is no saving him at all. i see qui gon saying “anakin it’s qui gon, tell me why you did it” and then vader becomes angry at himself, everyone around him, he starts to kill some of the clones out of anger or whatever, in order to block qui gon from waking up anakin forever which he would do hence i believe at this point only person in the galaxy that can save him is luke.

[@coreymckee4844]

Regardless how they handle or do it, Quigon MUST be in the Kenobi series!! We can come up with so many ways they can do it, but for that to happen first, he NEEDS to be included. I think its about a 50/50 chance they include him. It IS disney afterall and they dont give me much faith in anything starwars lately, so im keeping my expectations VERY low.

[@scottgoss7927]

He was weak and lost to Maul, the Dark side sound say he should due and he ignored, that may have something to do with it they can lean on.

[@precisionpowergamer2361]

Would be cool for sure, imagine Vader in his castle meditating and hearing Qui Gon reaching out to him, that would probably shock and anger Vader greatly

[@TheRuleofTWO66]

I think that Vader will be kinda receptive at first but then convince himself that Qui-Gon was the cause of all of this, because Vader always blames his problems on everyone else instead of taking the blame for it and so I think that’s when he will sit Qui-Gon out further pushing him to the dark side, to where we see him in Rogue One and A New Hope.

If Qui-Gon had been contacting him, then Vader would have already known that was something light-side users could do. I also don't think he could ever see into the future--I think he was being fed visions of the future by Sidious, which is why his visions only ever seemed to guide him along his path to the dark side. That's why the visions stopped after his journey to the dark side was complete.

He is never shown any vision that would lead him to doubt the character of Chancellor Palpatine, doesn't forsee murdering countless of his peers--among them young children--and doesn't see his own near-death at the hands of his best friend.

A couple of months ago, Liam Neeson was a guest on the Late Late Show with James Corden. Corden asked him if he would appear in Kenobi. Neeson said he was interested, that he would have to read the script, and that no one had approached him yet. FYI. Again, this was a few months ago.

Because still believes there’s hope for Anakin to bring balance to the force even though he is Darth Vader. He never gave up on him.

Liam Neeson back as Qui Gon is something I have wanted to see for a long time, a long time.

Part of me likes to believe that the Qui-Gon redeems Vader KZbin series is canon and that Qui-Gon spoke to Vader during RotJ and guided him into besting his master and saving Luke. Another part of me likes to believe that Qui-Gon knew it was the will of the Force that Vader do what he did and knew to stay out of it. And Another part of me likes to believe Qui-Gon is a secret ally of Palpatine and a Sith Lord himself and everything was proceeding as they had foreseen. Qui-Gon: "Train the boy." Palpatine: "Okay I will DEW IT!" Qui-Gon: "He will bring balance." Palpatine: "Soon I will have a new apprentice, one far younger and more powerful." Both: *Evil Laughter*

I think the concept of the force ghost was still "new" or at least new to this generation of Jedi and so I believe it took Qui-Gon a long time to learn how to communicate from beyond and that's why he never spoke to Anakin prior to him turning to the dark side. It was too late for Qui-Gon to reach out once he finally figured it out. Also Anakin as a little kid, he was still kind and innocent and wouldn't force choke or smash anything with his force abilities as a little guy.

Vader and Kenobi will face off, but the second duel will be interrupted by qui-gon ghost talking and kenobi will then escape and begin to feel that...vader is now more machine than man.
