    They could do Maul and his crime syndicate for season 2. We still don’t know what happened after Solo.

    I've been asking for more Qi'ra and Crimson Dawn for a while now.

    You could do it that Kenobi dismantles Crimson Dawn without ever meeting Maul if you want to keep that Rebels show canon. You can have it that Maul believes he’s dead at the end.

    That was an awesome finale.
    The big Vader/Obi-Wan rematch was amazing, especially the end when Vader's mask broke. I like how now that they have the light up sabers, almost all of the duels are in low lighting, so they can play with the glow of the sabers.
    It was nice to get to spend a bit more time with the Lars and Luke. I'm not quite sure how the timeline lines up with what was going on with them and Obi-Wan, because he seemed to show up awfully fast for not being anywhere near Tatooine when he realized something was wrong with Luke.
    I'm curious to see if Reva pops up somewhere else later, I wouldn't mind seeing what becomes of her after this.
    The farewell between Obi-Wan and Leia was sweet, and of course we got the set up for their call for help in ANH.
    Loved Liam Neeson's cameo at the end.
    I have to wonder if James Earl Jones could have imagined he'd still be voicing Darth Vader almost 50 years later when he was first cast, back when Star Wars was some weird movie that everyone was laughing at.

    I doubt they'd go that route, the comics are doing a bit crossover with Crimson Dawn, and they probably wouldn't have let them do that if there was any chance of them showing up somewhere else before A New Hop.

    Huh.. They improved the emporers makeup.. Looks alot better, more like the ROTJ version than the rubber face RoTS version..
    Sabre duel was nice, but.. Ugh.. Obi leaving Vader there alive.. Anakin is gone, kill what is left.. You tried your best to kill him 10 years ago and thought you did.. But consciously just walking off not killing a sith lord? Knowing nothing is left of Anakin? Should have found a way to end the fuel where he had to walk off without finishing him.. Like sensing Luke was in trouble during the duel or something.. Owell..

    In all Not bad, overly long, above book of boba .. Way behind both Mando seasons.. See what Andor and bad batch come up with.

    Kenobi can’t kill the Chosen zone. That would really mess up Destiny.

    I'd like to see the adventures of Mara Jade, maybe Talon Karrde, you know, the expanded SW universe.

    We saw a Falleen as one of Leia's kidnap gang in Episode 1 so I'd love to see what Prince Xizor's species and the Black Sun organization would be up to in the new Disney Era continuity.

    The part about Vader being the one who "killed" Anakin fits pretty well with this scene.


    From a certain point of view.

    Because Disney/Lucasfilm just tosses crap to the wall and hopes that it sticks, ignoring continuity and character consistency. Both Kenobi and Yoda were training Luke to defeat Vader (and the Emperor)--not save him, hence Kenobi repeatedly describing Vader as evil in the OT.

    Yep, not an ounce of character or plot consistency, if one recalls Obi-Wan and Yoda's unwavering view of Vader and what to do to him.

    If Rebels is canon, Kenobi believes Luke is the Chosen One, as he admits to a dying Maul, so he had no reason not to kill Vader at the end of this series' fight. That, and in the OT, Kenobi believed Vader was irredeemable.

    People change their minds. Obi-Wan has to make peace with the idea of failing Anakin and Qui-Gon first before he can accept the idea that Vader is totally lost.

    He has ten years to do it. I see no inconsistencies.

    He never gave up completely on Maul and treated his death with the utmost respect for such a longtime and powerful adversary. And he didn't even have a personal emotional connection and friendship with Maul so you can imagine he had lingering feelings of love and brotherhood for Anakin right up until the end. He practically raised him from a nine-year-old boy. You don't spend that long being at someone's side and being a father figure without some love remaining.

    Seriously? I guess to each their own. I'm not sure how one could see her as bland, and vanilla.

    A powerful former Jedi with a past filled with memories of her childhood friends being murdered in cold blood by the very man to which she's sworn allegiance? Who uses cunning to find her prey, exploding in rage at her so-called compatriots who themselves see her as an unreliable, unstable ally? Nah, she was awesome. I'm hoping to see more of her, if not in another season of Kenobi, then somewhere else in the SW universe.

    I'm not sure I need to see the character again, but I thought she was pretty good in this series.

    I liked the subtle reference to Obi-Wan's family and wouldn't mind that being the basis of a season 2, if they pull the trigger. What's it like when a devout Jedi comes face-to-face with the family he never got to grow up with? Although I'd hope they don't go the route of the ROTJ novelization and make Obi-Wan's brother Owen. That'd be a bit tad too small universe syndrome, even by Star Wars standards.
