Obi Wan Kenobi Struggled as a Youngling and Padawan

[@tux75]

I love how extremely complex yet simple this character really is. From what I remember when I first saw him in a New Hope, he seems like a nice and wise old mentor. However when you see him later on in the prequels, and the clone wars, he’s a man who has resisted the dark side even when his master, lover, and brother died before his eyes. He truly is the best demonstration of strength. And even if he is fictional, I respect him as the man he is, even more than I respect most real life people

[@tomlindop5428]

I agree. Fictional characters can allow us a picture of people we want to aspire to be. Obi wan is a truly great role model of strength, patience and perseverance. When I was a kid I always looked up to him in the movies and EU. He was a great role model to have growing up.

[@tomlindop5428]

While he may not be as strong in the force like Anakin, he shows strength in many other ways which makes him more powerful than most of the other characters in the Star Wars universe and what allowed him to survive so long

[@hunterkiller1440]

I'd like to think of him as a weak Force user who was struggling yet is intelligent and hard working enough to become the legendary Jedi Master we have in the Clone Wars.

[@JonTheJedi]

Obi-Wan will always be my favorite Star Wars character. A man who goes through so many terrible experiences and losses and never once gives into the dark side. I like how Count Dooku described him in the Revenge of the Sith novel. “He was a vessel in which the light side shown perfectly through.” While Qui-Gon might have been the perfect example of what a Jedi should be, I believe Obi-Wan hit that mark too, just in a different way. A bit more rigid way, but one that still truly sought to do good and not evil. Kenobi is the goat!

[@rexlumontad5644]

It would be interesting to see Kenobi's flashbacks of himself as a kid in the past.

[@emilyhedgehog547]

It'd be a bit weird if he had a flashback of the future

[@Angry_Squirrel555]

No, no more flashbacks. We had more than enough of those in The Book of Beta Fett.

[@isaackim7675]

If Obi-Wan had a pocket full of sand during his duel with Vader on the Death Star I, he would’ve made it to help Luke to complete his training

[@philippemineau2015]

Not even necessarily a full pocket. He needed merely enough to make a small line of sand on the floor between Vader and him. Vader would have never crossed it, because it would have gotten everywhere.

[@philippemineau2015]

@@isaackim7675 Jeez you're right. It would be so effective that Vader might find it unfair, most definitely outrageous. Obi-Wan could also lift the sand and create some sort of a sand bubble around Vader to keep him from moving until he made it to the Falcon. But I like your idea more.

Dude your channel should be even bigger than it is….your videos are so well thought out and your a great host.

[@zelodolongirl643]

Hey Alan, have you ever wondered why the Jedi never went after the nightsisters considering that they're so opposed to the dark side and the nightsisters used the dark side for their magic? You'd think they'd at least want to keep an eye on them, but it seems like they very rarely ever go to their home planet.

[@maxxor-overworldhero6730]

It's possible that they were never went after simply because of their isolation, as well as the fact that they were just one Clan among many Dathomiran Witches, of which who tended to be a lot more Light Side leaning.

[@tomlindop5428]

I think the Jedi did keep an eye on them. I don’t know where I saw or read it but I feel there was some sort of mutual understanding that the night sister stay on dathomir and the Jedi would leave them alone

[@carsoncasmirri3874]

Pretty sure they were aware of what went on on Dathomir but didn’t really care to go after it between the fact they were well dug in and armed and that they rarely actually left Dathomir

[@valorsayles3048]

I have all the Jedi academy books that are based on young obi and qui-gon. They are my favorite Star Wars books. Obi and qui are my favorite characters. They are both what all jedi should strive to be. You should totally read those books bro! They are short

[@georgekavanagh5036]

Love your vids bro I've seen so many and I've been watching for years you're cool and you raise awareness keep it up 👍👍👍

[@aricstradtmann9972]

In the phantom menance you could see obiwan was much like Anikan brash arrogant and hot headed not as bad as anikan was but you could see the immaturity for sure

[@aricstradtmann9972]

Kenobi: Anikan spinning is not flying Anikan: But it’s a good trick 😂😂😂😂

[@robertagu5533]

Anakin didn't START unstable he DID however became that way. Just imagine how critical BOTH these Jedi were to the franchise as we know it. Like would Obi Wan faired so well escaping angry shooting Clones or Inquisitors had he NOT become a famous powerful defensive Jedi. Or the similar alternative reality where Anakin grew up to be a well known Mechanic/famous Speed racer.

[@kingandros4819]

Being a slave as a child would make you unstable. Leaving your mom in slavery while you follow your dreams would haunt everyone. Returning only to find her right before she died a slave, would make anyone unstable. I stand by this in saying anakins downfall was that he was more human than the jedi wanted their members to be.

[@Dk9776v]

I loved the Jedi Apprentice books as a kid

[@craqqle4785]

Hi! I love your channel. Keep it up! Could you do a video on all clones who disobeyed order 66 and if they are likely to join a rebellion? From the bad batch, I think rex is recruiting clones to fight the empire and it would be interesting to know who might take that up. Thanks!

[@lerneanlion]

If Palpatine is the Senate, does that mean the Jedi Council is the Will of the Force? This is just a funny trick question, of course. You guys can answer if you guys wanted purely for entertainment!

[@tomcat124us]

Jedi Council is not the Will of The Force. Snooke said it best, As Darkness Rises, Light will Rise to meet it. Ying and Yang , Push and Pull. There will always be evil in the universe, Jedi'i are stand between the Light and Dark and find the Balance in between, even if we don't like the answer, massacre of the Jedi and subjection of people of the Galaxy. Jedi Codes mean nothing, only the Will of The Force.

I think if I could pick I’d rather be one of the exploration Jedi people. Like you wouldn’t be a knight, and didn’t have a saber and all but you get to fill in the map, chart new star systems and make first contact with non Republic worlds.

[@tomlindop5428]

I can’t remember but do they not get a lightsaber because they didn’t pass the trials? I always imagined they would still have one as they trained with them since they were younglings and instead of being dubbed a Jedi knight or Consular or Sentinal they were just among the other ranks.

[@aricstradtmann9972]

Obiwan always wanted people to fallow rules but always struggled in getting people to actually fallow the rules look at anikan if Kenobi would have been more firm and a father instead of a friend maybe anikan would have never fallen in his own arrogance he refused to talk to Kenobi about his visions when Kenobi probably could have lead him to the best person for guidance but of course anikan always thought he knew best
