Correct. Obi Wan is much younger in this series than the events of SW, and takes place only what - 8 years after Mustafar. How old is Lea? 8 of 9? I read a short interview of one of the directors and she made it clear that Vader was “still becoming Vader.” The scene where Obi Wan first SEES Vader as Vader is played perfectly by Ewan McGregor, IMHO. He genuinely looks shocked and scared shitless.

It’s not correct...at all.

Anakin becomes Darth Vader: ..."Henceforth, you shall be known as Darth Vader."

Obi-Wan learns the truth of Anakin becoming Darth Vader (referred to by that name *twice* - by the Emperor he personally sees on the security footage - “You have done well, my new apprentice. Now, Lord Vader, go and bring peace to the Empire" - and in follow-up conversation with Yoda that Skywalker is gone and has been "consumed by Darth Vader" - “Twisted by the dark side young Skywalker has become. The boy you trained, gone he is. Consumed by Darth Vader.”

Also they had not met since their last battle per the dialog in Episode 4: A New Hope: "I've been waiting for you Obi-Wan...we meet again, at last. The circle is now complete. When I left you, I was but the learner - now I am the master.
