RIP Kanan Jarrus
Not the jedi we deserved, but the jedi we needed..

Going into Star Wars Rebels I wasn't all that impressed with Kanan initially but the character really grew on me. I liked that he wasn't just the wise old master who had all the answers for Ezra. For Kanan himself still had much to learn about the force and his character developed magnificently throughout the show. Kanan even outshined Ezra if you ask me.

R.I.P Caleb Dume, Jedi Knight, My Favorite Star Wars Character

[BoostedAkatsukiRiffs]

I love how Kanan ended up going out the same way as his master. Selflessly saving others.

[slpmjb]

Probably the best character to come out of Disney Star Wars.

RIP Kanan... You’re one with the force now.

8:49 Before Kanan died, the last thing he saw was the love of his life.

The last thing Ezra saw was Thrawn hentai.

Kanan: I promise, we’ll see each other again.

*gets blinded later.*

*regains his sight just before his death.*

[Dragonstorm]

Kanan's voice is briefly heard in The Rise of Skywalker along with the other previous Jedi Rey is confronting Sidieous.

[jordantorres]

Kanan was IMO the most well developed and Interesting character in the new canon. Such a good story him and Hera carried the show at times.

[PikaveeT]

WAIT A DAMN MINUTE
“We will see each other again”
HE FOLLOWED UP ON THAT
WHEN HE DIED, HE REGAINED VISION
SHE WAS THE LAST THING HE SAW
HE FULFILLED HIS PROMISE

[erinv]

He sacrificed himself, just like Depa Billaba.

[Obi-Wan_Kenobi]

It looks like I saved Kanan's life. Your welcome Kanan fans.

[GrandMoffTarkinsTeaDispenser]

I met him, great guy, died on A HELL of a mining disaster.

Kanan’s story, and that of the rebels crew is the same: family and identity. But Kanan’s is probably the harshest. He was a Jedi who could not be a Jedi, forcing himself to forget who he is. And even when he started to accept it, he was faced with one trial after another. The shame of teaching without much knowledge, the trauma of the clone wars and his ability to join another fight and of course the loss of his sight. Eventually all of those things help him be what he was supposed to be, a Jedi with a sense of belonging, compassion and self sacrifice. So enlightened that he is able to restore his sight and even express some of his will through the cosmic force, proving that if he had lived a few decades earlier, he probably would have gotten himself a seat in the Jedi council.

an absolute complete awesome character

Battles leave scars, some you can't see

[TheMonkySpanker]

In the Bad Batch s1e1 Caleb is saved by Hunter, and in s1e11 Omega befriends Hera. I love how they have the Bad Batch woven into those storylines.

[Sam_McGuire]

I think Kanan is my fav character to date in the new cannon. The story group did a great job at showing his entire life in multimedia.

[statesrights]

Obi-Wan had been one of my fav from back in the day.. Imust say... Kanan is right up there with him.. so sad to see him die....

[schradester]

My favorite New Canon character. Such a great addition to the universe.
