What If Anakin Skywalker Led a Rebellion Within the Jedi Order

What If Anakin Skywalker Led a Rebellion Within the Jedi Order? Let’s explore the depths of this scenario in the video.

Tarkin: I wish more Jedi had your military sensibilities. Perhaps I can inform the chancellor of your valor.

Obi-Wan: I’m not sure what to think of your new ally.

Anakin: Well I think we need people like him. This is a war. If we aren’t willing to do what it takes to win, we risk losing everything we try to protect.

Obi-Wan: Unfortunately, war tends to distort our code, even for victory we risk losing that which is most important. Our honor.

The pair watches as Tarkin leaves, the words sinking into Anakin. Rather than put him at ease, they only upset him further.

Before the war, he might have understood them but now they are almost two years into a conflict and the Jedi still see themselves as peacekeepers. The peace they knew is long gone but the Order still has one foot in the past. He’s convinced they no longer remain in touch with what's happening in the galaxy.

Rather than bottle these feelings up, Anakin voices these concerns in meetings with the Jedi. He says the Jedi’s job should be to end the war as quickly as possible and do whatever it takes. Instead, they have become reactionary and only deal with problems as they arise.

With this criticism, he finds a surprising amount of support. While many older Jedi believe that Anakin is out of line, many younger Jedi side with him. They are tired of the Jedi’s hypocrisy and this growing faction of Jedi decide to play an even more active role in the war and fully embrace their role as officers within the Republic military to end the war as quickly as possible.

Palpatine provides these Jedi with training in official military academies. While this takes months, the young Jedi who emerge are far more experienced in military affairs than even their older masters.

Their capabilities shift the war in favor of the Republic far sooner. Anakin becomes the head of this faction of Jedi, putting him in a position of immense responsibility. At first, the young Jedi struggles to handle this task as he has little experience.

Thankfully he has Padme to help him who suggests that some of the Jedi also help rebuild the war-torn worlds, saying that just because the fighting is over, doesn’t mean the war is over for those whose lives have been destroyed by war.

Anakin loves this idea and pushes the Jedi to take more action. Here, the less militaristic Jedi are put into action, providing relief aid and helping worlds rebuild. Soon, Anakin’s faction becomes the unofficial military wing.

At first, this division helps as it allows Anakin a place to thrive and the rest of the Jedi to focus on their roots. That is until the Jedi Temple Bombing.

One of the prime suspects in this attack is Anakin’s own Padawan, Ahsoka. Eventually, she’s arrested and an investigation goes underway where she is found guilty and is to be expelled from the Jedi Order.

Yoda: Clouded by the Dark Side these things are, Padawan Tano. Dangerously clouded, but not just surrounding you. Surrounding many things in these times.

Anakin: You’ve already made your decision haven’t you? This meeting is just a formality!

Yoda: Reached a decision we have, though not in total agreement we are.

Mace: It is the Council’s opinion that Padawan Ahsoka Tano has committed sedition against the Republic and thus will be expelled from the Jedi Order.

Anakin: You can’t do this.

Ki-Adi-Mundi: Your Padawan status will be stripped from you, and you shall forfeit all rank and privileges within the Grand Army of the Republic. You will be turned over
to the Republic courts to await your trial and whatever punishment they will set for you. Henceforth, you are barred from the Jedi Order.

Rather than stay quiet with this news, Anakin informs his followers who begin protesting the decision, throwing the Jedi Order into chaos. As they see it, this is a politicized move to harm Anakin’s reputation.

This is made only worse by the revelation that Admiral Tarkin ordered that Ahsoka be expelled to be given a military trial. Anakin’s Jedi see this as the Jedi turning their backs against all their beliefs.

Later on, it's proven that Ahsoka is indeed innocent and Jedi responsible is not a member of Anakin’s faction. Although Yoda and the Council apologize for their decision, the War Faction is not satisfied. They continue protesting and demand that Yoda step down as Grand Master of the Jedi Order and Anakin takes his place.

Mace: Surely this is a joke. Master Yoda has led the Jedi through times of triumph and struggle for centuries.

Anakin: And I honor him for it, but maybe it's time to let the Grand Master rest.

Yoda: And lead us, you shall?

Anakin: If that's what the Order wants, yes.

What if Anakin left the Jedi order for Tatooine? When Shmi dies her Last words to Anakin are "Don't kill the Tuscans, they are people just like you and I. The Jedi took you away and you were not here to protect me or your people. Your people need you, the people of Tatooine need you, Anakin." (With her last breath shmi says) "Unite all the people of Tatooine with your lightsaber, even the Tuscans, don't waste anyone's life if not necessary..."

Yoda: "At an end, your rebellion is Skywalker. And not soon enough, it was."

Anakin: "What? This is outrageous, its unfair!"

[RAM_of_the_WayT]

What if Anakin, Ahsoka and Obi-Wan returned from Mortis during order 66? Anakin, Ahsoka and Obi-Wan come out of Mortis at the moment in time when order 66 is executed. Their ship was gone and they were thought to be dead or lost. The first thing the three of them sense when they come back to the galaxy is the execution of order 66.

Why is it everyone wants Anakin to go to the dark side so much. 🤔 Why not have him do right by the Jedi

[RAM_of_the_WayT]

What if Jedi could sense when cameras were recording them? Only the stronger Jedi. My inspiration for this suggestion comes from an idea i had with a mental image of the Jedi council memebers and the stronger members being able to sense sidious turning on and off cameras to capture what he wants to portray. And then the Jedi putting on an act when the cameras are recording then letting loose when the cameras are not recording.

I’m not sure if you’re voicing Anakin in these or not, but it kind of sounds like it could be you; if so you sound exactly like Matt Latner’s Anakin from the Clone Wars.

[LiterallyWill]

What if the Jedi hired Sherlock Holmes to figure out the identity of the Sith?

[nobbyfirefly]

6:24 while I agree that Yoda stepping down has merit, Anakin is not ready to be Grandmaster. He would still have many lessons to learn at this time, plus he’s not even a Master yet.

He’s a good leader in an army, but the Grandmaster has responsibility over the entire Jedi Order. Many of these responsibilities that Anakin has not been taught nor trained for.


I’m not disagreeing with what you did. I’m just disagreeing with who the war faction thought should be Grandmaster instead of Yoda.

What if the Devil turned Ezra Bridger into the Ghost Rider in exchange for saving his parents?

[RAM_of_the_WayT]

What if Ahsoka and Obi-Wan changed places in the story? Ahsoka is Qui-Gon's padawan in the phantom menace and Obi-Wan is Anakin's padawan. Maybe Anakin calls Obi-Wan "Kenny"?

[RAM_of_the_WayT]

What if Qimir traveled to Rebels and discovered Ezra Bridger? Osha and Mae merge back into the vergence they were born from on Brendock, opening a portal into the world between worlds and finds Ezra Bridger.

That thumbnail goes hard, very nice video too man

[AlexPerez-ypmz]

WHOA! DUDE!
The usual happened to the Jedi Temple and Ahsoka, then the Jedi wheo sided with Anakin and Palpatine, where Anakin defeated Mace Windu. This one was serious and action packed. It was great thay Ahsoka and Padme talked Anakin back to the Light and defeat Palpatine.

[arturiapendragonkingofknig]

Yoda at 14:12 sounded like Uncle Iroh lol

[shadowfast]

What if Rako Hardeen shot and killed Anakin instead of Obi-Wan and when Ahsoka finds out that the jedi council made that plan she turns into the emperor's apprentice?

[Chigoor]

What if anakin never trusted paplentine basically instead of being endreeaed by papletine befriending him anakin is weirded out by him

[dijilama]

What if luke time traveled to the time where obi wan said HELLO THERE

BTW, your transformers x death star video was awesome

[nobbyfirefly]

What if Vader conspired with Luke to blow up the Death Star for the insurance money?

(Based on a comment by @KingOfMadCows on a video where the Death Star gets a safety inspection)

[RAM_of_the_WayT]

What if the devil turned Anakin into the Ghost rider in exchange for saving him from burning on Mustafar? Honestly think about it. Dark Anakin almost Vader lying on the bed of the magma river on mustafar making the deal (as his body catches fire) with the devil to restore his body and becomes the GHOST RIDER! Not Maybe the devil says "at this point, you can keep the flames"

What if the Scimitar seduced young Anakin into running off with it?

The ship Darth Maul used the Scimitar was said by the jedi to be alive in the dark side of the force and tried to entice a jedi in canon.

What if Anakin stole the Scimitar?

What if Anakin at any point in time took the Scimitar for some reason?

Maybe he found it after the Battle of Naboo?

You could even have a story in which the Scimitar calls out to Anakin on coruscant at a point in time when Anakin is desperate to end the clone wars and seduces Anakin into taking it and running off on his own with it and become a VIGILANTE?

What if Anakin became a vigilante?

Like batman and batmobile vibes.

Imagine if the Son from mortis was allowed to communicate and mentor Anakin through the Scimitar?

While in hyperspace only?
