You know, I am not an expert story writer, but it would seem the basic thing if you are going to be writing a storyline that takes place within an established storyline, you would watch the material that takes place before and after it so you know what it is you are actually writing about. It is beyond clear in both the movies that take place before and after this timeline that Obi-Wan knew Anakin was Darth Vader. It is also clear that the meeting between them on the Death Star was the first time they had seen each other since the last time they fought on Mustafar, and they blow that aspect up as well.

This series, like virtually all of Disney Star Wars, is garbage completely disrespecting the storyline.

I see I (again) missed nothing by not being subscribed to Disney SJW Plus to watch this series.

As long as they get that sweet, sweet diversity in the storyline, that’s all that matters.

Actually this is headline grabbing nonsense.

At the end of the prequels Obi wan left aniline for dead.. he did not know he had been rescued and made into Vader…

By the original Star Wars he knew who he was…

This story happens between the two… so it is the moment he learned Anakin is not dead which he thinks he is, but is alive and now Vader.

After Revenge of the Sith, it is assumed that Kenobi leaves Anakin to die. Kenobi had no idea that the Emperor came to save Anakin. He also hid Luke and Leia to keep them from the Emperor, not Vader. So it’s completely plausible that Kenobi didn’t know Anakin was Vader. Now Anakin became Darth Vader before he was disfigured, but I don’t think Obi-Wan knew he was Darth Vader. I don’t have a problem with what the writer said. It’s consistent with Obi-Wan not knowing that Anakin survived.

Modern woke writers can’t be bothered with such mundane details. What actually occurred between characters? Pshaw! Who cares? Tension? Timing? Ridiculous patriarchal concepts. Logical consistency? Rubbish! Just horn a pervert or two into the story and make an older respected character into a bisexual. Yeah! That’s the ticket!! Who cares if Anakin was Luke’s mother?

Mark Hamil made a tweet about prince louis but called him Prince George. Of course, he was inundated with posts telling him who it was. And then various comments pertaining to Star Wars.

One of them said if Darth Vader says he is Prince George then he IS Prince George.

The series is crap. Not a pimple on the butt of The Mandelorian or The Book of Boba Fett. Boring story line and actors hired for their Woke-ness giving 3rd rate performances.
