A detail i really like about the “Hello there” is that it’s much more similar to Alec Guinness’ delivery from Episode IV than Ewan McGregor’s from Episode III. Less of a cocky playfulness, much more of a friendly gesture.

Not only does Leia echo Little Ani's "Will I ever see you again?", she does so in the exact same intonation.

I love the fact that Ahsoka’s strike took Anakin’s left side portion of his mask, while Obi-Wan’s took his right side portion. But only Luke, his son and redeemer, was able to take the full mask of Vader off

[andrewpynn]

I'm surprised you didn't mention Vader's announcement that "He" killed Anakin. This means that the "Certain point of view" Kenobi references in RotJ was Vader's

[gabriel.skywalker]

The references to Jedi Fallen Order were amazing, I hope to see Cal Kestis in live action with the other Jedi that were mentioned in the Obi Wan show

Thanks for the shout out. Nyche and Corran actually appear in Eps 5 and 6, with Nyche using a blaster. I loved the series and look forward to seeing what else is up for the Horns as new shows roll out. With Corran being the same age as Luke and Leila, the possibilities are endless.

The way Vader stepped around while he fought Reva without a saber, reminded me of how Sideious was stepping around and effortlessly dodging Maul and Savage, without any ignited saber, during their duel in the Clone Wars.

The fact that Ahsoka and Obiwan are like the only 2 force users that can rival vaders power at this time is so cool to me. They each get a half of the helmet, but Ahsoka chooses to stay for anakin while obi wan lets him go. Says a lot about the feelings of a jedi and how Ahsoka isn’t one. I also just love all the call backs, the “then you will die”, both saying anakin when they see his face, even the framing of the beginning of the fight. Some people may think it copies too much but I think that seeing how outside of padme these were the two people he was closest to, it makes sense they would have similar confrontations. It also just makes anakin feel much more cold in the rebels fight because he has been through this before, all I can think is him having flashes of Obiwan when Ahsoka ignites her sabers. Really wish Ahsoka would’ve atleast been referenced seeing how much her duel with Vader influenced this fight.

In Part 6, Luke says, "I'm not afraid". He said that again to Yoda in The Empire Strikes Back.
It may have been mentioned earlier, but in A New Hope Han dismisses the Force as "simple tricks and nonsense." I wonder if Han met or heard about Haja's con-artist tricks?

Claudia gray is an awesome author! I can’t believe she wrote the short story master and apprentice and the actual novel too. It definitely came full circle there lol

[StuartLugsden]

Then you will die"
"Then you will die"

"Anakin"
"Anakin"

"Anakin Skywalker was weak. I destroyed him"
"You didn't kill Anakin Skywalker... I did. In the same way I'll destroy you."

"I wont leave you, not this time"
"I'm sorry. I'm sorry Anakin"

Ahsoka slashed Vaders mask exposing his right eye
Obi Wan slashed Vaders mask exposing his left eye

Ahsoka destroyed the floor and Vader fell through
Vader destroyed the floor and Obi wan fell through

This is not a coincidence

Obi-wan, knowing Anakin is truly gone, ultimately acknowledging to himself that his "brother" is gone.... peak Star Wars.

[ElloAsty]

Episode 1 also has the handmaiden switch like from Phantom Menace

[nicolassanchez]

As to the eopie's name, in the first issue of the new Obi-Wan Kenobi comic series, it is revealed that the eopie's name is Akkani. Perhaps Obi-Wan had more than one eopie throughout his time on Tatooine, but my favourite name is honestly Akkani, since it is very similar to Anakin.

[jbrown]

Vader duel wielding the sabers in front of a kneeling Reva reminded me a lot of the same scene when Anakin disarmed and subsequently beheaded Dooku in RotS. I honestly was surprised at the time Vader didn’t lob off Reva’s head too.

[myriadmediamusings]

I dunno if its just me but for whatever reason I wasnt on the lookout for easter eggs this time compared to Mando and Book, possibly because of the time period it was in, but it was still a fun time recognizing a few stuff.

Jabiim’s mention was neat as I remember the Jabiim story from Legends continuity. The main easter eggs that got me was in the initial Path safehouse because of the Aurebesh etchings. Some of the names mentioned are massive deepcuts that by this point I think would only mean something to the most diehard Legends fans.

[Manterok]

When he called him "Darth" I was like 😏 that right right I thought I'd be the only one who noticed that.

[wwbwbgohbc]

I've heard that Lola was named after a pet bird Carrie had when she was around the same age as Leia in the show, if that's true, I love that a lot

[Fork]

The fact that each episode mirror each movie was amazing and not something I had thought about before. Also, "Gungan snacks" becomes a lot darker if it doesn't mean "Snacks for Gungans", but rather "snacks made out of Gungans".

[PsychoStreak]

Obi-Wan's slicing of Vader's helmet creates the scar we see on the top of his head when Luke removes the helmet near the end of RoTJ. I thought that was an excellent touch.
