The Jedi Council Explained: Every Canon Member

The Jedi High Council was a body of twelve Jedi Masters tasked with governing the entire Jedi Order. So just which Jedi, of the tens of thousands in the galaxy, were selected to sit in those pristine twelve chairs? Let's talk about it.

Shaak Ti but I feel she hasn't been as good in canon

[@ChazTB]

wasn't Luminara on the council at one point?

[@daviddoyle7377]

@@ChazTB no Luminara Unduli was never on the Jedi council, she was still a master though

[@tredavis5392]

A quick fact I think nobody is talking about. At some point after tales of the jedi in the book padawan, Dooku was said to have a seat on the council.

[@borgthepig]

Even Piel, Oppu Rancisis, Kit Fisto, the list goes on.

Ki-Adi Mundi had two brains and still managed to use neither.

[@apfelkuchen4399]

Obi-Wan replaced Depa Billaba. He offered her his place back after she had woken up from her coma. But she refused the offer and took Caleb Dume as her padawan. As a member of the high council you are not allowed to have a padawan at a same time. So when Obi-Wan took her seat, Anakins training was already finished.

[@natanpazin255]

Wow thats cool, Thanks for that info

[@nivekk1734]

If high counsel members are not allowed to have a padawan, how come Anakin was assigned Ashoka as a padawan?

I believe the fight scene with Palpatine should have been better and longer. Imagine the dark lord of the sith taking on four masters and taking out three of them slowly (not in two seconds) until mace and Palpatine himself where left and then the fight scene that happened can commence. They really did the other jedi masters dirty

[@NianMed9an]

Palpatine was one of the most powerful beings in the galaxy and the most powerful sith ever in canon. Makes sense that he would make the jedi masters into minced meat

[@sullychow4123]

Nah jedi masters would still give more of a fight. Let's not overdo it here, palpatine is ferocious, especially in the cartoons, but to denigrate the masters is not the way to go.

Don't diss the GOAT like that but in all seriousness dude was a complete idiot jumping in front of a sith lord and a skilled bounty hunter completely on his own.

[@brianwalsh1339]

My favorite thing about Coleman Kjac is that he has never had a speaking line in anything he’s ever appeared in.

[@markf.9396]

It’s worth noting that Eeth Koth was an utter coward, who even offered to give up other surviving Jedi to Vader in exchange for his life, and Vader still murked him anyway.

[@apfelkuchen4399]

Yes, he said that. But that was not his true intention after all. He tried to trick Vader and buy time for his family to leave. Koth didn't know about any surviving Jedi activities since he was not longer involved with the Order at all.

[@RedHotHabanero_]

Wow. Great video! I really liked the effect you used where it goes from a bunch of pixels to a cool font of the name. It was really interesting learning so much more about all these High Council Jedi and just more juicy Star Wars knowledge for my tiny brain. Also my favorite jedi from the list is of course Obi-Wan Kenobi but i also like Anakin, Kit Fisto, Plo Koon, Yoda and Mace Windu. I like Coleman Trebor's design but i think his death was a bit sad for a High Council Member. I really love Shaak Ti's design and think shes really underrated but thats my opinion. Would you go over her legends lore or many canon deaths that would be amazing thanks. Amazing video!

[@RedFiveStarWars]

Thank you very much!

[@theninjassassins_0116]

Saesee Tiin and Kit Fisto have always been favorites of mine!

[@skales3864]

I don't know why everyone missed this but Shaak Ti died on the invisible hand (likely because of grievous) In tcw season 7 when Ahsoka and Obi Wan talked one last time Ahsoka asks why they didn't send any other jedi to save the chancellor and Obi Wan said that they already sent Shaak Ti but she would't respond indicating that she died

[@markykrajky13]

But doesn’t shak ti to appear sitting with the council later in revenge of the sith?

[@lucasgodard5737]

You are very true. And I actually like this, as it mentions the events of The Clone Wars 2002. It was confirmed by George Lucas that she died at the hands of Anakin Skywalker in the Jedi Temple.

[@TamSkylonobi]

Obi-Wan Kenobi actually didn't take Master Even Piell's spot but ended up taking Master Coleman Trebor's spot in Star Wars Canon. He was already part of the Jedi High Council before Even Piell had died. While in Legends it was Kit Fisto who replaced Coleman Trebor and Obi-Wan had replaced Depa Billaba, it was the other way around in Canon. In Canon Depa Billaba would return to the Jedi High Council before being replaced by Stass Allie. Seeing how after Stass wasn't seen on the council in TCW and Coleman Kcaj was, this shows that it was Kcaj was the one who replaced Gallia in Canon and not Allie.

[@Hibliubnoman]

Coleman kjac is the best for me. And also did you know That he killed two Inquisitiors

[@satmtca]

Go over each of the Jedi masters and their history including their padowans and lightsaber combat style (if available)

[@TraciPeteyforlife]

The Council was very arrogant. That was pretty much the core problem. Arrogance, dogmatic behaviors, and refusal to do that which was right. Not that which was political.

[@milescole7415]

I always thought Plo Koon was awesome!

[@ablox1166]

They really need to remake that scene with Palpatine vs. 4 Jedi masters. It just doesn’t make sense how they went down so fast, especially Kit Fisto as we see what a skilled fighter he is in TCW. We know the out of universe reason is budget and animation(TCW) but it still doesn’t mesh well with pre-existing canon. Also I find it baffling Stass Allie and Agen are in ROTS but not seen once during TCW council scenes leading up to ROTS/ end of the war.

[@insertcreativenamehere242]

Poof didn’t die. He just went to get the pizza’s

[@chrislouden7329]

My understanding is there was a Master Berel Yoda had trained who disappeared on a dangerous mission in Hutt space

[@TheEnder515]

I really like your videos. Maybe try recording using multiple clips? That way you can do multiple takes and edit out any stutters. Background music keeps people engaged, as well. Just some constructive criticism. Iseriously like your work.

[@Bundeskaiser]

Oppo Rancisis is so underrated.

[@BrianMarrino236]

So is the Jedi counsel different from the Jedi high counsel?

[@creyten5255]

yeah there are multiple councils. The Jedi High Council are the leaders of the order and some of the most powerful Jedi and the other three councils are just sort of factions of people who do different things.
