Anon, she's a ghost now, her spirit trapped forever by the power of the dark side within the ruins and ashes of Malachor.


>>81350136
Agreed.

>>81349997
I think the season finale basically killed the show for me. It cemented that Disney/neoLucasArts is never going to do anything impactful if it gets in the way of maximizing profit.

I mean what happened to Ahsoka is directly related to the quality of the show and the quality of the storytelling and you know they left it open ended to bring her back later for $$$

Rebels was never that good anyway, but now that I know for sure nothing that interesting or "holy shit" is going to happen imma skip out on it.

Why was there a Jedi Temple Guard mask in a Sith temple for Kanan to grab?

>>81350287
Hera and Sabine regularly drag the show down by being shit tier, out of place characters that don't belong in Star Wars and seemingly only exist because of Disney's feminazi power tripping of late.

>>81350117
She is "alive" as much as she is "dead".

Filoni says he is happy there are so many optimists that believe she is alive because of that last shot of her. But it's not an absolute in the slightest.

I personally believe that Filoni intends for this to be Ahsoka's end. He knows what happened to her. As far as Vader is concerned, she is dead. The rest of us don't get closure. That's how it is.

The Owl is important though...

>They’re actually called Convorees, named after Anne [Convery– Filoni’s wife], but that was back on Clone Wars when I named them that. They appeared first on the Wasskah arc when Ahsoka got kidnapped by the Trandoshans. So that’s where you would first see those types of birds, but I think birds – like many things in the galaxy – appear on different planets so you have different breeds of them. When they get to the Atollon moon, these creatures start appearing.

>I would tell you, though, that it is absolutely not an avatar of the Dark Side. Absolutely not. But, you know, we’ll have to see. You’re going down the rabbit hole now. You know me by now – it’s not accidental that this thing is flying around. It’s not accidental that it’s there, and it’s not accidental that it’s bizarrely on this completely different world at the end of that episode. It definitely has a meaning for me, as the storyteller. It’s a subtle thing that if you know what the owl represents, then it deepens the lore of the whole thing and you go, “Okay, there are things at work here that are beyond our reckoning.” In some ways, I could say that it’s a messenger, it’s an observer. It is definitely something. And I would suggest – I would rather have fans debate – but I would suggest to say that whatever that thing is an avatar of has actually appeared in the animated Star Wars universe before. So decrypt from there… Have a fun summer!

Why are we not talking about this!?

Its our fucking answer to Ahsoka!

The Sith Temple we see is the SAME DESIGN as the one in Mortis!

THE OWL IS AN AVATAR OF A CELESTIAL

AHSOKA REALLY IS A FUCKING GHOST THERE AT THE END, MORTIS SHOWED PLANETS SUPER STRONG IN THE FORCE CAN HAVE TRIPPY SHIT LIKE THAT BOUND TO THE PLANET

AHSOKA IS PERMANANTLY TRAPPED ON MALACHOR AS A FUCKING SPIRIT

>>81350467
It was thousands of years ago. Do you really think the whole Guard system that we saw in TCW was the same back then? It may not have even been a guard; the descendants that use the masks could have morphed into the Guard system over time. Or, they set up the Guard system after the terrible defeat on Malachor to protect the Jedi Temple(s) from Sith invasion payback.

The Owl was a fucking Celestial (how else could it be there, all life on Malachor was destroyed from the super weapon)

Ahsoka is literally dead at the end. She exists only as a spirit, likely because of the Celestial watching over her.

So technically, when they come out with a new version of the original trilogy, they'll have to put Ahsoka next to Obi, Yoda, and Hayden?

No because she is trapped on the planet.

>>81351539
She's not a ghost. She's an echo. Her cosmic force is being kept on Malachor due to the presence of the temple. She isn't a regular force ghost.

I don't know, after the Maul ass pull coming back from the "dead," I can't rule out her being dead.

Didn't even see her get killed. Same with that other inquisitor that fell, bet he's alive too.

Maybe she's dead, maybe she's set on exploring the temple. Will probably come back corrupted dark side user and have the whole redemption arc cliche.

So Ahsoka is a Force Ghost, or Spirit, but only visually existing/bound to Malachor, thanks to the Celestial that was watching over her.

Similarly to how Qui-Gon was bound to Mortis (until the end of TCW where he was finally able to communicate audibly with Yoda)

I can't fucking believe this, I am shaking if this is true.

I can't handle Ahsoka being gone.

>>81351683
I'm still saying they should have just showm her get killed. Filoni basically copped out so he didn't have to animate Vader killing his waifu.

>>81351716
>Will probably come back corrupted dark side user and have the whole redemption arc cliche.
Sounds like a great idea for a comic entered around Luke as he tries to train as a Jedi after ESB. Having a run in with a Dark Side!Ahsoka and redeeming (and I guess her dying because of it) would make for a pretty good preperation for doing the same for his father.

>>81351782
Pure speculation. Don't get to upset over some anons overthinking shit.

>>81351877
Considering we have strong implications from Filoni about the Owl being a Celestials Avatar, and the fact that the Temples on Mortis and Malachor are quite literally identical, I think all signs are absolutely pointing towards this being true.

But of course, we will probably never get an answer, or at least not one for a long ass time if Filoni feels like ending our desperation and misery. (Or prolonging it)

>>81351877
>>81351840
This. Interesting theory, but in the words of many, "Where's the body?"

Not showing her death explicitly lets them save her for future whatevers, like comics, movies, specials, a cameo in Kingdom Hearts, further seasons, etcetera

>the descendants that use the masks could have morphed into the Guard system over time.

Jedi don't have descendants. They don't procreate.

>>81351952
>Considering we have strong implications from Filoni about the Owl being a Celestials Avatar
Didn't he basically say "neat idea but I don't think it's an avatar"?

>>81351782

Whatever stated that Qui-Gon was bound to Mortis? Maybe I'm just not remembering something from that arc. I don't like the idea of Force Ghosts being "bound" to things, though. I feel like that goes against what else there is that's been established.

>>81352059
The opposite:

Read this >>81350455

>>81352037
I didn't mean it in a literal sense. At the time I couldn't think of a better word

>>81352083
Nothing is stated. But he only ever visually appeared on Mortis.

When he spoke to Yoda, he was just a disembodied voice. It's clear Qui-Gon wasn't taught/didn't master becoming a Force Ghost.

But on Mortis, a planet incredibly powerful in the Force, he was able to manifest himself visually, and appear to Obi-Wan.

I believe Ahsoka is now in the same situation, but on Malachor.

>>81351195
Damn, son, Lothal has a Jedi Temple and an apparent inordinate amount of kyber crystals in it's crust and it isn't a Force planet like Mortis. Dagobah, which to our knowledge has no temples, is strong in the Force and one of the purest such places Yoda had felt.

As for your owl theory, I hate to break this to you but Maul had been managing to live on the world for some time. He was eating your precious omens, anon. Which, it should be pointed out, was watching VADER limp away so in your theory Vader is now the undead spirit.

The temple weapon malfunctioned and eliminated both sides on the battlefield, not "all life on the planet." Filoni talks about the owl species. If Ahsoka is a ghost you just made her immortal. If she's a vision the only thing the vision is showing you is that she's alive (oops!). As for two exploring the temple, the temple EXPLODED. She's traveling underground. There were three Inquisitors on that planet and Maul only stole one of their TIEs.

Checkmate, Dwayne

>>81352091
Yeah, you're reading too much into it. He's not "heavily implying the owl is an avatar" at all.

>>81351782
Force Ghosts don't work that way, and are also blue, translucent, and glow.

>>81352083

>Whatever stated that Qui-Gon was bound to Mortis?

It wasn't. Qui-gon was more or less able to visually present himself because Mortis was ridiculous force mojo, I forget the way he put is specifically. But it was basically easy-mode for force ghosts there. Anywhere else he shouldn't be able to manifest himself on a visual level on account of not completing the priestess' training.

>>81352158
>I would suggest to say that whatever that thing is an avatar of has actually appeared in the animated Star Wars universe before.
What else is it then? He's obviously referring to TCW here.

What possibly else in TCW is the Owl?

Unless its the damn Changeling alien, I can't think of a single other thing the Owl could be an "Avatar of".

We have also established that the Temples on Mortis and Malachor are identical.

So.....

Maybe the theory isn't 100%, but I believe that we are certainly on the right track by looking at Mortis and its lore.

>>81352181
Only normal force ghosts are like that.

>>81351716
Filoni said that Eighth Brother died from the fall, but they originally had a scene they cut where the temple's weapon turns him to stone while racing against Maul for his TIE Fighter.

>>81352263
Those ARE the only ghosts. Nothing else can survive after death. The Inquisitor was a vision. Mortis existed within the realm of the Force itself, i.e. vision country.

>>81352151

>As for your owl theory, I hate to break this to you but Maul had been managing to live on the world for some time.

Darth Maul can't have been there for long if the Eight Bro got there the same day as Kanan, Ezra and Ahsoka.

Also, Sith Lords don't need to eat. They sustain themselves entirely on the dark side.

>>81352151
Maul brought a packed lunch obviously. Just like his mommy used to make it.

>>81350806
So was Kanan blinded in both eyes or does the left eye has a chance of survival?
It implies both eyes were lost but from this pic it seems only the right eye was cut

>>81352306
Priestresses, Bane

>>81352151
How do you explain the identical Shrine/Temple stuff?

Sure as hell aint a coincidence mayne

>>81352375
You're forgetting the Emperor sensed shit was going down on Malachor. He sent in one of the Inquisitors, his "hunting dogs," to investigate. Apparently he didn't sense Maul, only something they were calling the "shadow." When the Inquisitors reported shit was going down with multiple Jedi, Maul, and the Holocron they called in Big Daddy Vader.

>Also, Sith Lords don't need to eat. They sustain themselves entirely on the dark side.

Well that's a fine crock of bullshit you've been stirring for us. The Force can be used to sustain life but not indefinitely. Darth Maul, even as a crazy cyborg spider, was being fed by that one snake bastard.

>>81352453
Bane was a vision that Yoda bitchslapped. The Priestesses ARE Force Ghosts of the type Yoda was trying to become. When one revealed her true form she revealed that the robes were empty. All she was was clothing and a mask. That's the entire goddamn point of that arc, teaching Yoda how to become like her, but the right way that Qui-Gon fucked up.

>>81352440
>So was Kanan blinded in both eyes or does the left eye has a chance of survival?

Maul hit both. His eye sockets are empty now.

>>81352453
Priestesses maybe, but Bane wasn't a ghost

>>81352457
Re-using assets.

>>81352457
Oh no, are you saying a place that was composed of Force visions couldn't look like an ancient shrine or temple? Even assuming it was real Anakin and Obi-Wan and co. were lured in by a 2000 year old Jedi Distress Code. So there you go, ancient architecture from ancient Sith/Jedi.

Sith and Jedi share an origin. Sith were once Dark Jedi. Don't be surprised that some of their taste in aesthetics run the same as their love of lightsabers and robes, and the same basic force powers.

>>81352453
Bane was a Spectre, an imprint of his former self, left to guard his tomb.

The scary thing is.... This is exactly what Ahsoka could be right now... And imprint, a shadow, conjured by the Celestial, to guard the temple.

I'm getting spooked guys, this fate of Ahsoka makes me uncomfortable.

>>81352612
>Bane was a Spectre, an imprint of his former self, left to guard his tomb.
No, he was an illusion created by the Priestesses to test Yoda. They outright say this.

Filoni put an emphasis on the light-dark/underworld-overworld of the last episode.

Maul was waiting for an opportunity to leave and rose to the overworld, Ahsoka lost her opportunity to kill Vader and descended to the underworld in Exile like Maul.

I don't think Ahsoka is dead, but I don't think we'll ever see her again, she realises that to stay with the rebels would draw Vader to her. So she stays in the temple in self imposed exile until the force presents an opportunity.

It leaves a sour taste in my mouth.

>>81352528
Then they will just make a new one. The force isn't an exact science and can't be devided into concrete categories.

>>81352612
>Bane was a Spectre, an imprint of his former self, left to guard his tomb.
But he wasn't. The was no Bane ghost, it was an illusion.

>>81352646
It also shouldn't be bent from what we've explicitly seen just to support bullshit theories. Ahsoka being a ghost created by Mortis Force gods is a nice bit of speculation with nothing concrete to back it up.

>>81352631
>>81352659

I will have to rewatch that episode then...

My post still stands though, about it not being a real, living Ahsoka.

I don't think Filoni is that cruel though. Even IF she is dead and/or bound to Malachor in some way, he wont ever let there be a fake Ahsoka. She'll still have her consciousness, if she appears again.

R-Right?

>>81352472
>You're forgetting the Emperor sensed shit was going down on Malachor. He sent in one of the Inquisitors, his "hunting dogs," to investigate.

I'd believe that if it weren't for Darth Maul carrying an Inquisitor lightsaber. That to me implies the Inquisition's been after him for a while. If Maul had been on Malachor this whole time killing every Inquisitor that came, I think Vader would've came a long time ago.

So yeah, I'm not convinced that Maul's been there all that long.

LOTS loosely implies that Vader and Sidious don't even bother with eating anymore. So with that in mind, why would Maul?

Come on anon, the identical temples and the possibly-Celestial Owl ARE evidence. Perhaps not enough for you to personally believe the theory, but you cant outright deny it altogether.

Maul could acquire that part of his saber at any time, not just on Malachor. If Maul hadn't told the truth about his ship crashing he would have used his ship, not stolen the Inquisitors. Unlike Vader's those don't have hyperdrives.

>>81352764
I don't think we know how he died in canon yet. Either way, it was probably his apprentice that put him in the tomb.

>>81352037
No but they're are families where the force is more prevalent and thus force users pop up more often among those blood lines. Many Jedi often have a cousin or niece/nephew join the order as well.

The whole Skywalkers debacle, Plo Koon had a niece, Yoda had Yoder, etc.

>>81350160
Why is his nose so Jewish?

>>81352757
That's people seeing what they want to see. Problem is the owls were in TCWs too and NOT in the Mortis arc. Temples looking vaguely similar means absolutely nothing in a realm where it can look like however it wants.

>>81352778
I think its the most plausible theory so far to be honest.

Of course, maybe we're just trying to find an answer where there is none, and it was all just 2deep4u symbolism, and Ahsoka is dead/alive depending on viewer interpretation, as Filoni intended. Which is ok too, I guess. But it's understandable people crave definitive answers, and this theory at least is one that makes sense with some actual evidence of substance.

>>81352812
Wookiepedia does though.
> To rectify this, Bane reformed the Sith and created the Rule of Two, mandating that there could be only two Sith—a Master and an apprentice—at any given time. These new Sith would begin a plot to destroy the Jedi in secret. Bane was later defeated by the Jedi, who wrongly believed that the Sith were defeated with him.

>>81352753

>I don't remember this at all.

It was at one of the breaks the Sith and the two royal guards had while trudging on Ryloth. It might've been the one where they were both meditating. Sidious outright let the two guards have the rations they had. The Sith touched none of it.

>>81352872
Most plausible theory is that she lived along with everyone else. Maul survived the explosion and escaped with the Inquisitor's TIE after the Phantom got back to base. Vader survived and had a minor enough limp. But Ahsoka is rendered into some kind of canonically dubious "specter" concept someone pulled out of his butt based on an owl that was actually observing Vader, not her.

>>81352915
The funny thing is that their source for this is an outdated version of the official site's databank, since one of the Wook's weird quirks regarding the new canon is that they consider even past, pre-2014 versions of the databank to be canon.

Granted, the Jedi killing him would explain how they know about him, but it's not official yet.

>>81352909
No. No shields either. This is why Kanan and Ezra were stuck and needed a pickup as much as Sabine, Hera, and Zeb during the season 1 finale. They had to dock the same as the others with Chopper's gozanti.

>>81352942
>It was at one of the breaks the Sith and the two royal guards had while trudging on Ryloth. It might've been the one where they were both meditating. Sidious outright let the two guards have the rations they had. The Sith touched none of it.

Ezra's middle eastern. He's literally space Aladdin.

>>81353015
I just like it better that he is killed by his own rule of two.
I like to think that he was defeated by his apprentice immediately prior, and left alive as a lure for Jedi by his apprentice to make them believe he is the only one left.

>>81352757

> identical temples

Only the internal altar was the same, and it's not impossible for powerful sith/jedi to have visited Mortis and seen the architecture, then been inspired to build in a similar style. The Celestials are the closest things to force gods that exist, of course force-users would have sought to emulate them - and we have proof of contact between the two long ago, because the Celestials used an old Jedi distress signal to summon the gang to Mortis in TCW.

And of course there's the possible mundane explanation of them just reusing assets to save money

>>81352900
yeah well, that's just like... your opinion, man

I really shouldn't be feeding the crackpot theories but why not.

Ahsoka "died" on Mortis but was resurrected using the life force of the Daughter. Therefore Ahsoka had her Living Force replaced with the Daughter's Cosmic Force that otherwise rendered her immortal except for some silly magic dagger.

Therefore Ahsoka is

immortal

some kind of hybrid Force entity and beyond the rules of the normal galaxy

Mortis was just a vision so she never really died and this is all bs.

I suppose it is. But it kinda' makes sense though. Vader obviously can't drop trou and take a dooku. And with Sidious being Emperor, it works totally to his advantage by avoiding poison or someshit.

>>81352977
At the end of the previous episode, the Owl is circling Ahsoka. Then at the end of the Finale, it flies into smoke, and bam, smoke fades, ahsoka.

Filoni says the owls are important, man. I think it was watching over Ahsoka the entire time, knowing what was happening, what would happen.

I personally think it is a Celestial, because Filoni didn't want Ahsoka to die alone...

We literally saw a force vision of Adult Ahsoka on Mortis - dressed differently, for sure, but this might lend credence to the idea that her older self can now manifest through the force like Qui-Gon.

>>81353285
Looking at that, I'm glad she turned out like she did in Rebels.

>>81353126
Mortis lured them in with an ancient Jedi Distress signal that was stated to be 2000 years old. Tarkin novel states that 1000 years ago the Sith were supposedly rendered extinct. This was the last galaxy wide war since the formation of the Republic (according to that minister on Naboo). After the sith/jedi wars the republic reformed itself into it's current state that had lasted 1000 years (the Republic as a political state has existed far longer, but 1000 years ago it saw it's transformation into an incarnation that lasted until the declaration of the Empire).

So 2000 years ago the Sith and Jedi were still at each other's throats. Super weapons were deployed according to Yoda. Malachor had one such weapon.

Basically this means it's conceivable that the Mortis stuff, if it was real, was based on Jedi/Sith architecture from that same time period as Malachor's temple. Or just looked like it if it was a vision and drawing from their own ancient legends.

I wonder if the show is going to end up being like Agents of Shield where every time a new movie comes out the show has tie in stuff going on?

Why is it weird? Disney are the biggest jews and probably one of the evilest companies on the planet.

Did you know they tell their employees to pay legal fees for them to do shit like go extend copyright?

Once you take something away from the creator you lose the part where more than just the bottom line matters.

Lucas fucked a lot of SW up pretty badly, but you know that as the creator he probably cared about it a lot.

Disney doesn't care about it outside of $$$$

So you make an assumption out of a loose implication concerning a character whom we don't really know what he had been doing during the past weeks/months/year or what the extent of his power really is ?

I'm not even particularly against that theory but you must admit that it clearly lacks evidence.

This is really tiring to see people taking their theories or what they assume to be true for granted.
See "Seem", "Look like", "Maybe", Perhaps", "If" and tons of other words and expressions that are great to nuance theories.

I don't like to rant like that but I just think it's important to distinguish what's clearly established in the canon and what's not even if both are great to talk about.
Sorry for being that grumpy anon.

>>81354004

Lucas DEFINITELY cared about Star Wars a lot. It's why he made unpopular decisions: he believed it was genuinely important to put his artistic vision out there and complete the story.

It's also why The Clone Wars looked absolutely gorgeous in the later seasons: Lucas was willing to blow a million dollars an episode to ensure that each story got the production quality it deserved.

His wisdom may be questionable, but his love is a certainty.

>>81354401
Anon please, I can only get so aroused.

>>81354434

Obi-Wan.

It's part of why Vader won last year: Obi-Wan had already won the year before.

It's also probably part of why Luke will win this year: Obi-Wan's already won once and been the finalist twice.

>>81354434
Obi-Wan. The finals have broken down like this:
2013: Yoda vs Vader, Yoda wins
2014: Obi-Wan vs Vader, Obi-Wan wins
2015: Obi-Wan vs Vader, Vader wins

>>81354403

If it's any consolation, I voted Kylo Ren in hopes that Vader wouldn't be the finalist for four years in a row.

It's even better when you consider the final battle in the contest before last was also Obi-Wan vs Vader, and Obi-Wan won that one.

THE WILD RIDE NEVER ENDSAFHILASFKDL:ASJKALFK"SAA

I really wish KOTOR becomes canon again, you know why?

besides being about a time where there was a thousand Jedi and Sith fighting, there is a line Bastila says to the player before leaving Taris, "The force is in all of us..."

She was describing that force sensitives are people who are just more in tune with the force than others, but the force does indeed exist in everyone even if its only a whisper for most. This alone makes the mythology of Star Wars feel bigger than the PT made it out to be like.

All this crazy talk in the thread and nobody touched on the batshit craziest of them all. Anons, we have to go deeper.

Filoni has distracted you guys with owls. The key, however, was BIRDS. What is a bird? A phoenix. What was Ahsoka Tano a member of? Phoenix Squadron. Who was she in Phoenix Squadron? Fulcrum. What is a fulcrum? "A thing that plays a central or essential role in an activity, event, or situation."

Sabine has been painting phoenix symbols which is reminiscent of the not yet existing Rebel Alliance symbol, and she just happens to hook up with Phoenix Squadron. But the Alliance symbol is red. Sabine's are orange. Who else is orange? Ahsoka motherfracking Tano, bitches.

But Sabine was inspired to paint those symbols by a painter using his art to protest the Empire. The Empire stopped him but why did they do that? That just made him a martyr and spread his symbols further. No, that dude was actually a Force sensitive. He wasn't painting protests against the Empire, he was painting VISIONS.

He foretold how an orange Phoenix would rise from her (seeming) death from the ashes (of Malachor) and it would lead to the Empire's doom.

Deep enough for you? I hope not because we're going even deeper, bitches! Continued!

>>81354766
How deep do you like it, kids? We're thrusting this home all the way!


Luke is horrified to learn his dad is Vader. Somehow after he starts to think that his dad is still good. When did he start sensing the good in his dad? When he learned what kind of man his dad really. Not the childlike worship of the Knight he thought Anakin was from what little Ben told him but the true man himself. He had to learn about Anakin Skywalker. Ben could tell him but Obi-Wan is trying to steer him away from sentiment and surely wouldn't feed it.

No. There is another source. The Fore leads Luke to Ahsoka. She tells him of the man Anakin was. It's these stories that allow him to see beneath the darkness of Vader to what is left of Anakin inside the black armor. She also completes Luke's training which is why Yoda says he doesn't need to learn anymore.

Where did Luke gain his green crystal? Not from Obi-Wan, both he (briefly thanks to Boba Fett) and Vader searched the place. No, he got the crystal from Ahsoka. It's from her original green saber which she doesn't use now that she has her white ones.

Ahsoka plays the fulcrum again, the point upon which the galaxy pivots. It is her love and Luke's that save's Anakin, and her saber crystal that defeats Vader and provides the crucial reminder to Luke how he has an artificial limb like his father, that he could easily become Vader, that makes him deny the Emperor victory.

Boom, bitches.

>>81354753
You don't need KOTOR for that. Yoda says that in ESB. Hell, Ben says that in ANH.

>>81352015

Yeah basically Ahsoka right now is both alive and dead.. until she is ether needed to be confirmed dead or needed to be confirmed alive.

>>81354753
You that single line means KOTOR needs to be canon? Even though that's an idea that's been around since the original movies and Bastila is just repeating it?

>>81354800
Ahsoka gave her Lightsabers to the council when she left, she didn't have them. Furthermore Luke FELT the good in Vader through the Force in his longing to have his son join him, he did not to be told anything. She's dead and has no bearing on Luke's destiny or Anakin's redemption.

Nope. She lost them. She dropped one after she escaped prison and she dropped the other during her fight with Barris.

Also Luke fought worse than Kanan? Has Kanan cut off Vader's hand yet? Even if Vader's heart wasn't in the fight the Emperor never commented on him throwing that fight.

>>81354953
>I think we're getting somewhere.
Unfortunately Filoni doesn't tell Freddie anything. Or anyone else for that matter.

>>81355014

>Even if Vader's heart wasn't in the fight the Emperor never commented on him throwing that fight.

Even still, Kanan's shown a better degree of Technique than Luke did in ROTJ. And Vader's heart not being in the fight is entirely why Luke came out on top. Not because of Luke's martial prowess, or the lack thereof to be more accurate. If Vader wanted to kill Luke, he'd have done so easily.

>>81355125
>And Vader's heart not being in the fight is entirely why Luke came out on top.
That's a certain point of view. If Vader's heart wasn't in the fight he wouldn't have needed to wait until the last minute to kill the Emperor. The pivotal moment is that until Anakin makes the choice to save Luke he is still the Dark Lord of the Sith.

Luke won because he tasted the Dark Side, gave in to his pain, his fear, and his anger, and his hatred. That's why when Luke sees Vader's ravaged hand, the reminder of how alike he is to his father, Luke pulls back.

>>81355202
Still the Dark Lord of the Sith who doesn't want to kill his son

Anyone else find that the series was really kind of, well shit.
The only ones that stood out where two best bros in the cave, and then this episode.
I mean its a fucking great episode but literally every other one was filler.
Like fillers fine and all, but it was too much filler.
Plus maul could've been thrown in earlier. Show him hooded following the ghosts, obsessed with making Ezra his apprentice.

That said; I really hope Ezra opening the holocron leads him to seeking out maul.
Also liking the actual consequences for once, Ahsoka is TOTALLY NOT DEAD (She is) and Kanan gets fucking turned into a blind monk.

>>81354753

DID YOU KNOW THAT: This is already true, even with the PT?

>ANAKIN: What are midi-chlorians?
>QUI-GON: Midi-chlorians are microscopic life forms that reside within all living things.
>ANAKIN: They live inside me?
>QUI-GON: Inside your cells, yes, and we are symbionts with them.
>ANAKIN: Symbionts?
>QUI-GON: Life forms living together for mutual advantage. Without the midi-chlorians, life could not exist, and we would have no knowledge of the Force. They continually speak to us, telling us the will of the Force. When you learn to quiet your mind, you'll hear them speaking to you.

The Clone Wars expanded on this to explain that all life creates the Living Force, just like Obi-Wan said in ANH. When a living thing dies, all is removed and passes into the Cosmic Force. The Cosmic Force, in turn, feeds back into all living things through the midi-chlorians to make life possible.

So, in canon, the Force is in all living things, to some extent. Life creates the Force and the Force creates life, in an eternal cycle. The two are inseparable: you can't have life without the Force, or the Force without life.

Jedi may have more midi-chlorians per cell, but this is simply the difference between a small ensemble whispering and a choir singing out for all the world to hear.

>>81355229
Again, that's your interpretation and you're welcome to it. But if you keep saying Vader doesn't want his son dead you have to account for

WHY BRING LUKE TO THE EMPEROR

If Vader is such a good guy now why bring his son to the one place where he will either be corrupted or destroyed?

Vader himself hadn't even decided to kill the Emperor and was perfectly capable of watching Luke be electrocuted for some time before finally intervening. The conflict was there but it wasn't so strong yet that Vader threw the fight and let his own life be forfeit for his failure.

And yet it did. The goodness inside Vader wasn't strong enough to act to help Luke until Luke's life was nearly extinguished.

He wasn't trying to commit suicide via his son. He wasn't 86% good again only for Luke to push him the rest of the way. For that scene where Vader finally dies and Anakin is reborn to have full merit you have to truly believe that Vader is still capable of letting Luke die. Otherwise you dull the impact of that scene. Luke didn't defeat Vader he just beat the shit out of his dad who was actually starting to be won over to Luke's side. And that's a fucked up frame of reference, anon.

THIS IS THE YEAR OF THE LUKEFU

VADER A SHIT

>>81355561
I still choose to believe that Luke actually beat Vader, not that Vader subconsiously let him win. Becasue if the latter is the case, then it kinda dulls the whole thing with Luke tapping into Dark Side

>>81353991
If this happens I'm gonna cry at the cinema. It will be a first but I'll definitely do it.

>>81355561

Yet regardless; You can't possibly expect me to believe that knowing what Vader is capable of, Luke was skilled and powerful enough (even with some dark side backing him up) to beat Vader, unless something was seriously wrong on Vader's part. Considering Vader's immense skill and godlike power with the force, and Luke's short, bare-bones training. Vader's wavering feelings are the only acceptable explanation as to why he didn't slap Luke's shit all around that observation deck as opposed to what actually happened.

>>81355561
I'd add to this that if Vader let's the Emperor kill Luke, as he was about to, that's just as evil as doing it himself. It's an act of omission.

This is why Vader doesn't get a moral pass on Alderaan just because Tarkin was the one who ordered them to fire when ready.

What are the chances that Disney commissions a "dark" Rebels spin-off that focuses on a band of Imperial customs agents trying to hunt down a Rebel pirate band in the Outer Rim?

>>81350107
Nice hat on the one one the left, looks witchy and like a leaf.

>>81355943
Vader isn't an unstoppable murder machine. He isn't immortal and he sure as hell isn't indestructible. He can make mistakes and be injured. He can actually fail. He was blindsided by Han Solo at the Death Star, tricked into his own team's tractor beams by Hera, and Ahsoka managed to actually breach his helmet. The comics are also all about how he's more of a weapon, better in the hands of others, and how he's trying to step up. But even by ESB his command abilities are largely down to murdering his own officers and getting his own Star Destroyers destroyed by asteroid fields.

This is not the godlike being you think it is, anon. I'm sorry.

>>81355989
That's a stupid opinion. Where do you draw the line, faggot? Is it somehow my fault I didn't stop your father from raping you nightly?

Idiot.

>>81356045
I was really hoping Rebels season 3 would be Ezra as Maul's apprentice. Like a dark mirror of the past 2 seasons of his tutelage under a Jedi.

Y'all are forgetting that Vader brought Luke up to DSII to become his or Sheev's apprentice. If Vader wanted Luke dead, Luke would be dead. If Luke joins Vader, they can rule as father and son; if Luke kills Vader, he can replace Vader as Sheev's newer, better apprentice.

Vader only turned on Sheev when Luke was being electrocuted because that was the only time Luke's life was in danger.

>>81356136
Jesus Christ, Francine, you've seem been through some shit. You don't need 4chan, you need to seek actual professional help.

>>81356116

>Vader isn't an unstoppable murder machine.

To anyone that isn't a main protagonist, he actually kind of is. When Vader enters the fray, you are 100% guaranteed to lose.

>>81356252
Read Lords of the Sith. They may have power but they are still men, not gods.

>>81356282
Vader Down proves otherwise. He kills like 300 Rebel troops singlehandedly

>>81356194

>Sheev's newer, better apprentice.

Luke's just a watered down version of Vader. He'd never be better. He's strong in the force, no doubt. But unlike his father, he isn't a construct of the force. Each generation of Vader's descendants will get weaker over time from non force sensitive genetic diluting.

>>81356346
I think the tradeoff is that while Luke isn't ever going to be as strong as an undamaged Anakin would've been, he could become stronger than Vader.

>>81356282
>Read some random shitty book

"No."

>>81356282
>>81356332

I've read both. It's what I'm basing my points on Vader's power, skills and abilities on throughout the thread.

>>81356332
A bunch of rebels surround Vader so that any attempt for them all to open fire and which misses the target will invariably hit the rebels on the opposite side of the shooter

and then their first opening volley was rockets that he can TK

I'm not too impressed with what he was up against.

Not to mention none of them were trained in the ways of the Force.

>>81356346
>He'd never be better.
Where was that said?

>>81354401
That's not concept art from Rogue One, that's concept art from the cancelled First Assault.

>>81356401
In the book Vader makes several mistakes, is never tread as some immortal god who is never in any real danger, and is specifically told by Sheev at several points that he has not only failed but that he has much more to learn.

>>81356045
We'd need a Kallus-like Imperial captain, a hot jailbait Inquisitor in training, a hotshot TIE pilot who thinks with his dick and falls for all the Rebel ladies, and a teenaged Stormtrooper spec-ops cadet to be our main hero.

>>81356379

Except I don't believe his prostheses lessened Vader's potential one bit. In fact I think he became more powerful than he otherwise would've. The pain the suit gave him fed his anger, his anger fed his hate, and all of this enhanced his connection to the force. His prostheses accelerated his boost in power until the day he died.

>>81356381
>refuses to read canon
>insists personal head canon is more accurate

Is this you, Francine? Are you going to be okay

>>81354810

Kanan is up in the /co/'s Hunger Games if anyone's interested.

>>81356587
I really hope he doesn't end up being blinded in that too. That would just be too much.

>>81355308
It's heroin.

>>81356462

I never claimed him to be immortal, though I suspect you may be confusing 'immortal' with 'invulnerable'. But as far as his power goes, he is godlike for all intents and purposes. No one has ever been more powerful in the force than him other than the Father, the Son, the Daughter and Darth Sidious.

Who didn't see this coming?

>>81356809
Well, death is pretty definitive.

>>81356861
Kanan

>>81356840
I have the suspicion several people at the Wook are saying, "Holy shit, our dark ritual worked! The Disney Canon is cracking open and Starkiller is leading the charges for the Return of the Legends! Our savior!"

>>81356874
There is no death, Loren. There is only The Force.

>>81356346
Didn't Lucas outright say Luke is the strongest force user?

>>81356891
Except that blind Kanan isn't based on Kota. They're both based on Zatoichi.

>>81356840
No, it WAS the voice of star killer who blinded kanan.

It happened. Star killer did it. He's made himself canon.

>>81356752

The conversation is, admittedly, sounding very close to one. But none the less, Vader's performed off feats of strength in the force well beyond what we've seen any Jedi Knight or Sith Lord be capable of, apart from Darth Sidious.

so yeah that song at the end of the finale, i fucking need it

>>81356927

>Didn't Lucas outright say Luke is the strongest force user?

Not as far as I recall. And if he did, he outright contradicted himself when he made Anakin the physical incarnate of the force. And I honestly wouldn't be surprised if that's the case. Nothing comes to mind at the moment, but I think Lucas has done that a few times before.

Anakin's dad was the Force but Luke's dad is Anakin. Since the Force runs strong regardless there doesn't seem to have been any dilution.

>>81357227

Until that's proven, I'm going to forever say that Luke is just a watered down version and each generation will be weaker.

>>81356954
While true, the fact that both were blinded by Same Witwer can't be coincidence.

then what was Maul feeding off of all those years?

No, that's reserved for the movie.

>>81350650
If it didn't rot after a thousand years I doubt it had any microbes in it.

>>81357416
That should have already happened.

What was with all the Rule of Two shit in a pre-Banite temple? Are they implying the Rule of Two was developed beforehand and only codified by Bane?

>>81357340

Much so indeed. And let us not forget that all legends are fair game to be used as creative inspiration. This is just Kanan's new development stage. Before, he was based on Kyle Katarn. Now they've added Rham Kota into the mix. Also interesting of note, both Kanan and Kota had significant affiliation with Mace Windu if I'm not mistaken.

>>81357416
He's talking about something that either took a lot of saved budget to make or possibly an OT character they've been hunting for the right voice for.

>>81357474
I think they were just using it coincidentally. It seems dickish enough that the Sith would construct such a thing and MAKE you have to bring someone else along to even access it.

>>81357416
Probably the formal founding of the Alliance to Restore the Republic

>>81357416

It'll probably be the formation and open deceleration of the Rebel Alliance. Bear in mind, for the less seasoned of us, that right now they're just a bunch of separate cells and freedom fighters. The alliance doesn't exist yet.

So are we gonna go back to more raids on Imperial outposts and gathering allies?

>>81357227
Shmi was saying that in front of the kids and the jarjar. She was used as a sex slave and doesn't know who the father is. Learn to context.

>>81357404
There were three Inquisitors and Vader there. It doesn't really matter who blinds him; Filoni knew exactly what he was doing when he had Witwer blind the guy who looks like a young Kota.

>>81357638
With Ahsoka out of the picture for the remainder of Rebels, Bariss has no point in showing up.

>>81357654
She said that privately to Qui-Gon. It wasn't a round table discussion.

>>81357499

I don't know, anon. He looks to be in pretty good shape.

She'll be in the book, not the show.

Now that Ahsoka is gone. What's the point?

>>81357654
You're forgetting the implications of the wider context. Qui-Gon told Yoda he exists as one with the Force but cannot manifest his image, only his voice. He also exists in a state where the past, present, and future are all the same time him

He visited Shmi in the past and impregnated her with his midi-chlorians. Anakin's dad IS Qui-Gon Jinn. This is why he felt drawn to Anakin, he sensed somehow they were connected and wanted to train the boy as his surrogate but actually his real father

Now you know the hot, saucy truth that Lucas was building up to when Disney bought them out.

>>81357986
>>81358024

I'd but him at 60, assuming he was 30-ish during TPM. And he's actually pretty close to human anyway.
