The ONLY Time Yoda Sensed Anakin in Darth Vader - Star Wars Explained

[@SpammytheHedgehog]

Yoda is that type of guy who knows what will happen, but refuses to prevent the tragedy until it is too late.

[@jacksonyon5276]

Yoda is not one to rush into action whenever he senses something. He’s wiser than that

[@Crimethoughtfull]

Sounds like the modern Western/Liberal politics. We know what will happen if certain bad actors get elected...but we'd rather deal with the mountain of bodies that fixing it will bring than be "evil" and prevent the mountain. We'd rather be "noble" and not cross "red lines" rather than defeat Darth Putin.

[@Nartanek]

Well it's not quite that simple, while i agree that they made him know way too much, especially during season 7 of clone wars, and that was unnecessary, he did what he could at a point where the jedi had already lost.

[@TheWhovinerd-1963]

It’s been shown several times in Star Wars that when a Jedi is shown a vision of the future, them trying to prevent that future from happening is what ultimately seals it. You can’t change the future if you are part of it. Also by the Time Yoda saw the vision of order 66 it was far too late to do anything. The Jedi were too far gone by this point xx

The tragedy of Darth Father the lonely

[@Ravenfanatic5]

Yoda was truly jaded by Anakin's actions. "Once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny. Consume you, it will." But that gives no kind of ground for redemption. Sad tbh

[@Wolfaydragoon]

To be honest, he isn’t completely wrong. Palpatine had developed a terrifying way to forever corrupt someone by not only making it impossible for others to forgive them, but for them to forgive themselves. It’s part of what made Luke such a great hero, he truly believed that Anakin could be saved. The one thing palpatine couldn’t plan against, the love and forgiveness of Anakin’s son.

[@Deeper489]

That’s how afraid all Jedi were of the dark side

[@BookishEmperor]

Yoda had no reason to think Vader could be redeemed.

[@simontemplar3359]

That may be one of the saddest and most heartbreaking things I've ever heard.

[@DjBaapreB]

The constant and lasting pain that Vader went through made Palpatine trust that he would remain that way. So at the moment when Luke was about to be killed by Palpatine, the Emperor didn’t pay attention to Vader and was surprised by his attack. So the fate of the Chosen One was to become evil to be able to destroy it.

[@lucabestea6844]

Lucas also states that by ROTJ, Palpatine became so into the dark side, only sensing its emotions. Vader acted out of love, and he couldn't sense that.

[@VALINOR24]

Interesting take.

[@jessemillan1385]

I wonder how the conversation between Yoda and Darth Vader would go.

[@jamieh19861]

Darth Vader I would imagine would talk similar like his conversation with Obi-wan full of ego of been the best however Yoda conversation been similar to his conversation with Darth Sidious bringing that ego right back down from the high ground lol XD.

[@IronDragonslayer2316]

you know i once saw a post on facebook about a little girl who was watching star wars and she’d just finished watching revenge of the sith and she was crying because she didn’t want Anakin to fall to the dark side

[@MackeyDeez]

Sometimes, I think that episodes 1-6 should be called the Tragedy of Anakin Skywalker. I mean we have a boy who was rescued from slavery by a fraternity of mystic warriors who had a prophesy a great warrior who will bring peace throughout the land. That boy grows into a great warrior who becomes seduced by an evil wizard and becomes his most brutal warlord, bringing oppression and tyranny across the land. After losing the duel with his son he slays the evil wizard freeing him from the spell, but it costs him his own life. Now that's sounds very much like a Greek tragedy.

[@orvilleortiz8616]

Qui Gon was the best Master for Anakin,but the Force didn’t want that, because Anakin trained with Obie Wan 12 years? 13? Then under Sidious being Vaders Master 20 years, Anakin had to walk both sides Light and Dark in order to bring balance….

[@dat581]

The sad thing is Obi Wan loved Anakin and tried his best to train him. Without the manipulation from Sidious he probably would have succeeded.

[@Hendur]

@@dat581 For sure but with Qui Gon as his master, he would've even seen through Palpatine. Qui Gon was so deep in contact with the living force, something Obi Wan only learned after he reconnected with Qui Gons force ghost. And I think his way of constructive critical thinking would've helped Anakins stuborness. He would have been understood in his frustrations with the Council.

[@jmwilliamsart]

@@dat581Obi Wan was too steeped in the Jedi dogma, and he was too loyal to the council, he didn’t defend Anakin against the council the way that Qui Gon would’ve done. Also his way of instructing Anakin was not working (he was too harsh), it only made Anakin’s trauma worse, he didn’t provide him an outlet for his feelings. Whereas Qui Gon would’ve tempered Anakin’s feelings and frustrations with compassion and understanding.

That’s why he doesn’t sense The darkness in the galaxy. Luke couldn’t save Ben just like Obi Wan couldn’t save Anakin. It had to be someone else in Anakins case it was Luke and in Ben’s case it was Rey. Heck Luke loosing control fits perfectly with his character because In episode 6 he almost Killed Vader.

Anakin is such an emo

[@Intimigator]

The more I rewatch the prequel movies and shows, the more disgusted I become with the Jedi Order. They literally attempted to shun away a young child whose DNA shows he could be their prophetic chosen one. Once they agree to allow the boy into their order, in order to honor a fallen Jedi master that had perished at the hands of the Sith and to appease one of their most promising Jedi Knights, the council did everything in its power to avoid properly training young Anakin Skywalker to be their chosen one. In fact, they treated him about as close to an outsider as one could be during his time in the Order, with the only semblance of respect they give him being a padawan of his own early in the Clone Wars. Instead of making him feel like a member of their family, they made Anakin feel so uncomfortable with speaking about his inner struggles that they made it too easy for the Sith master to manipulate him at the time of ROTS. Vader was the face of the Empire's terror throughout the galaxy, but the Jedi are the ones that allowed Vader to become a reality thanks to their own hubris.

@@zakosist As there are different kinds of strengths, there are different kinds of weaknesses. Prince Harry is a physically brave man. That's a indisputable.

(Not a new phenomenon - look at the universities in the 60s in the US or in the 30s in German.) So, yes, it is impressive that Vader had enough discipline to fight through the pain. But he only did so because he had the emotional and physical release of killing and inflicting pain. You can bet that every time he killed, he got a dopamine/endorphin hit. Like a crack addict. Anakin wasn't like Palps. He was raised right by a good mother and by Obi-wan. He wasn't a psychopath committing crimes while still in puberty and rescued by an equally corrupt father. So that's why I call him weak. He chose the wrong with his eyes open.

Anakin killed kids who brought guns to school and shot up kids and adults as it were. Themselves as Party Hearst victims of Stockholm Syndrome. Anakin met force with force and only attacked after their first strike meeting deadly force with deadly force. They objectified Anakin as an object called Vader saying the objectified Vader killed the person named Anakin who was not dead just objectified as Vader. They built a death star having Anakin blow up a daughter they did not tell him was still alive after they kidnapped his kids and called them dead while telling the kids the person Anakin was dead and was only an object called Vader. While burning him alive without trial. Restate original summation and analysis with these new facts. This brings forth a complex narrative that delves into themes of identity, objectification, and trauma, especially in how he is perceived and how he perceives himself. Luke Skywalker is analogous to Patty Hearst through the lens of Stockholm syndrome, several key elements emerge: Anakin vs. Vader: Anakin Skywalker’s a person Jedi objectified as an evil object who obeyed law called Darth Vader or dark Father and can be seen as a process of objectification. The emotional and psychological toll of being betrayed by the Jedi as a law is evil and lawlessness is good Jedi and losing his loved ones leads to the testing his person as an object called "Father" or "Vader." As this false objectified identity strips the law abiding person named Anakin’s humanity and past relationships, reducing him to a figure of fear and power. This mirrors the concept of Stockholm syndrome, where a victim (in this case, Anakin) is rendered as the property of external forces (the Emperor and the Jedi) who manipulate and control him. The Jedi, particularly after the events that led Anakin to become Vader, painted a narrative where Anakin was perceived as a threat. They objectified him as a villain rather than recognizing his grief and internal struggles. This reflects a form of emotional manipulation that led to Anakin becoming entrenched in the light side, akin to a victim refusing to identify with their captors the way his son Luke did. The tragic twists of the story-where Anakin’s children, Luke and Leia, were lied upon to be be called dead and told their law abiding person who was their father and very much alive after being burned alive without trial by their Jedi captors especially obi wan and was both told each other was m dead by a law breaking Jedi who called evil object Vader killed of the person Anakin whom Jedi called dead and where significant truths about their lives were hidden-playing into the layers of deception that led both Anakin and Luke into troubled paths. Luke was raised with an incomplete understanding of his own lineage, and in many ways, he was a byproduct of the objectification and manipulation surrounding Anakin’s betrayal by unlawful Jedi calling evil good and good evil.. When Stockholm syndrome Patty Hearst like Luke confronts his objectified father, Luke too objectifies the person Anakin who broke no law The narrative of objectification persists as Luke learns that the person he faces, Vader, is a shell of the man who was always his law abiding person and his very much alive father. This speaks to the trauma passed down through generations-Luke battles not just an Jedi enemy, but the internalized conflict that arises from the Jedi choices and the allegiance he is forced to take in the face of the Jedi tyranny. In "Return of the Jedi," Luke’s confrontation with Vader as an unlawful object and not as a law abiding person serves as a culmination of both characters’ struggles against objectification and manipulation. Luke can’t see through the Rorschach test of the mask and ultimately believes in Anakin's humanity which was always there despite Luke's Patty Hearst like Stockholm syndrome leading to his Luke's deception by the Jedi. This reflects not only an acceptance of the false objectification of his lawful father alive falsely identified as a living object called "Father" or "Vader" but also a never overcoming the lost relationship-the failure to recognize the falsehood of their objectification of the law abiding person named Anakin who was never the object called "Father" or "Vader". In summary, Luke’s journey was framed through themes of psychological captivity and identity loss and trauma that is central to law abiding person Anakin/law breaking object Vader's false narrative made up by criminal Jedis. This framing highlights the interplay between victim and captor, the complexity of identity, and the potential for a lack of redemption against a backdrop of manipulation and objectification, ultimately emphasizing the loss of the resilience of personal identity due to the oppressive forces. Stockholm Syndrome: This phenomenon occurs when hostages or victims develop feelings of affection or loyalty towards their captors, sometimes even siding with them against authorities. The term originates from a bank robbery in Stockholm in 1973, where hostages began to form bonds with their captors. Patty Hearst: The granddaughter of publishing magnate William Randolph Hearst, Patty was kidnapped by the Symbionese Liberation Army (SLA) in 1974. During her captivity, she began to identify with her captors and ultimately participated in criminal activities alongside them, which led to her arrest and later a highly publicized trial. Luke Skywalker Connection: Initial Captivity: In "The Empire Strikes Back," Luke Skywalker is kidnapped and trained by Obi wan while trained to kill his father a person named Anakin called an object named Vader saying the the object killed the person Anakin. Obi wan and Yoda represent the oppressive force in the galaxy. While Luke is raised to call good evil and evil good in the traditional sense as Patty Hearst was, he is drawn into the conflict and never comes to understand the complexities of the Force and his own lineage. Emotional Manipulation: Similar to how Stockholm syndrome can involve emotional manipulation, Luke's journey includes a degree of manipulation by those around him. His relationship with Yoda, Obi-Wan, and later even Vader can be seen as a complex dynamic where the mentor-student relationship includes elements of psychological struggle, allegiance, and conflict. Identification with the Enemy: By the end of "Return of the Jedi," Luke chooses to confront Vader and the Emperor, representing the ideas of Luke's Jedi captors or oppressors. In this light, Anakin has moments of conflicted loyalty: to his son versus the Stockholm syndrome of his son who is called evil good and good evil. In summary, the psychological undercurrents of loyalty, manipulation, and eventual defiance present some thematic similarities. Rather than being fully captive, Luke navigates a complex emotional and moral landscape. Yoda didn't want to train Anakin because he called good good and evil evil and they called good evil and evil good. If he faced slaves and slavers he would call slaver's evil and not good. You make Yoda sound like a scared slave trader.

While I usually do agree with TSW on the Prequal era, here I think he states something I believe is the opposite of the truth. Luke is the right choice because he is more like his MOTHER, calmer, more thoughtful, more forgiving while Leia is far more like Anakin. In TOT she is always ready to shoot and from the very first film. She is also arrogant and a princess. It is her COURAGE that is her strength. Which is where all the comments come from Hans Solo; 'whatever you say Princess'. The whole point of having Luke being raised by his uncle rather than the frankly stupid Jedi Council is so that he learns to SERVE OTHERS FIRST amongst normal people and a normal family feeling loved. He is sympathetic, not merely intellectually but emotionally. Sure he is impatient, LIKE ANY YOUTH but he forgives and loves his father. Leia does NOT. She is ANGRY and fearless like her father, Luke is calm and thoughtful like MOM! FACTS! Interesting anyway!

Indeed, Luke inherited Anakin’s spirit, but he also inherited Padme’s heart, the best of both of them. Because Luke had Padme’s compassion and understanding he was able to get through to Anakin.
