Hayden made the biggest comeback in history. He deserves all this love
Many of us have always loved him. Now I just love him more.
Toby about to make a greater comeback with Spiderman 4
@@kingnothing5678i don't think so because Hayden was hated so much and Tobey wasn't.
Explain to me why you would rather watch forced reaction vids vs the actual vid. The gag reflex is strong in this one
@@kingnothing5678The only Spider-Man 4 coming out is the next movie for Tom Hollands next trilogy
Hayden’s finesse with the lightsaber is still impressive after all these years. So effortless, Nick Gillard taught him well.
21 years
Is Nick the guy playing Dooku in the raw video that Haden was fighting from ROTS? That was amazing choreography.
I think you mean obi wan?
The thing I don’t see people catching is the different use of fight styles in the series. We see Ashoka and Anakin changing their fighting forms in these fights (and even the prior episodes) constantly. Hayden did a really job of verbally personifying Anakin in Clone Wars vs Episode 3 version BUT the best part was seeing him physically change the fighting style. Vader had big swings that were slow but perfectly placed. This one was the same motions, but fast. Such a cool touch.
Shes à noob wym lol. Vador destroyed her
He was once a Jedi
He was once a Sith
Now he is both,light and dark.
The chosen one.
yup from the 3 mortis gods he was supposed to be like the father(balance that stops both light and dark) but the son corrupted him further that made him stray to the path of the son(dark) while ahsoka is the daughter(light) now because the daughter gave her remaining life essence to her
That is not Anakin
@@akatoshmorgul9367that's more like Revan
@@King_Cobra0you mean raven 🐦⬛ from teen titans.
@@akatoshmorgul9367 It's him, we can infer it from "I've heard that before" as Ashoka told him she was not going to fight him as Luke (i believe?) told him that same sentence. If it were just Ashoka mind he wouldn't have said that. He's now a higher being. Jacen being able to feel them fighting throught the force is the point that gives us clarity about it, what happened there was real.
I love how Dave Filoni manages to serve us so much fan service, yet none of it feels cheap or forced. It just oozes respect and love for the lore while keeping its quality.
Everyone talks and praises him for his efforts and listening to his fans. I hope he continues to do so.
If Disney wasn’t greedy and meddle WAY TOO MUCH. The sequels wouldn’t have been a mess. For one they would’ve had a staple villain!
@ If he listened to his fans instead of making this a "Girl Boss" show it would succeed. No amount of nostalgia which is what this whole episode was, could make this show a success. They even HAD TO DUMB DOWN Haydens fighting abilities so that Rosario Dawson could "beat" him and win.
@@richardcannon6227 You're right, Hayden is much better normally.
@ Anakin didn't "lose" to her. He reached out to her through the force as she was drowning. She wanted to give up. She wanted to stop fighting. This is why he repeats do you want to "live" or "die."
He was testing Ahsoka as well as pushing her to live again and let go of her guilt and shame. He didn't want her to continue focusing on the past, her dwelling on abandoning Anakin, the Jedi abandoning her, nor the horrible deeds her master enacted on the universe as Vader. He wants to strip her of this as well as her hesitance to train others and simply move forward.
Anakin is the chosen one and the actual true balance of the force (good and dark) This was the best test and couldn't have been better. It's also why Anakin finally steps away, his eyes turn blue, and he says there is hope for her. Ahsoka can't kill Anakin's force essence...lol. If Ahsoka really faced prime Anakin back in their day and even before his injuries, he would have stomped her.
That "You lack conviction" walk and flex was SOOOOOOO Vader.
Anakin the Chosen One, the balance of both Light and Dark. Man I cried seeing this episode.
I cried with you.
We all did brother we all did.
Not many reactors talk about the lesson that Anakin was giving Ahsoka here.
They instead think this is just a cheap fanservicey Anakin vs Ahsoka fight. Missing the point of it.
Anakin's main goal here was this: to help Ahsoka face her inner demons and to help her defeat them. To help her overcome her trauma.
Ahsoka up to that point was living a life traumatized by her past.
She felt responsible for the deaths of all the Clone Troopers under her command.
That is why the "flashbacks" focus on two events: one of her first missions during the Clone Wars. When she refused to follow Anakin's orders and as a result, many troopers perished.
The other flashback focused on the Seige of Mandalore. Where Ahsoka was feeling overwhelmed with the responsability of having so many troopers' lives on the line.
Anakin took her there to remind her that she did the best she could. And to remind her that there were no other options that would produce a better outcome. So her feelings of guilt were misplaced.
Another major traumatic experience was Ahsoka's belief that she was responsible for Anakin turning to the Darkside.
She felt that she abandoned him when he was the most vulnerable.
Ahsoka was having difficulty separating Anakin from Vader. That is why she keeps seeing Vader instead of Anakin. Because Vader represents a failure that she feels personally responsible for.
Anakin was determined to show her that Vader was not him anymore. And that he was long gone. The good side had won.
So that's what the fight was about. To show her that Anakin was not Vader and that she was stronger than Vader. An entity entirely fueled by rage and sadness.
So when Ahsoka beats Vader, Anakin (no longer in his Vader persona) smiles. Because he knows that Ahsoka has finally beaten one of her biggest demons. She understands now that Vader is no more and that Anakin has risen from its ashes. And is now teaching her a life lesson.
Again, this lesson was never an ego trip for Anakin. So winning a fight against his padawan was never the end goal. This lesson was all about helping his padawan overcome her feelings of regret and guilt.
Which would allow her to finally live for real. Instead of just "existing" as she did before. She was now, fully alive both spiritually and physically.
Thanks for taking your time to print all of this. 😊
Good words, but you forgot to mention that these flashes in which Anakin becomes Vader are a way of showing that Vader's personality has always existed in Anakin. Showing Asoka that no matter what she did, this dark side of Anakin was always there, she just couldn't see it. In the Clone Wars cartoon, it is always possible to see Anakin slipping back into his Vader side.
Well I didn't read all of that because it's not important enough but one thing I will say is that this was fanservice. The plot of the show is about her finding Thrawn and Ezra not facing Anakin in live action. They just added that as a side part. Having cameos, characters making guest appearances. They've been doing this since Mando season 2 finale with Luke then again in book of Boba Fett.
@@SlimKim3>I didn't read all that
So not only are you wrong, you're ignorant and proud of it too.
@@SlimKim3 keep telling yourself that it’s mere fan service, you’re missing out on the actual story. Besides you yourself have stated your mindless ignorance by admitting you aren’t reading all of that
This is what I love about Dave Filoni's work, The series hasn't even reached the climax yet. But Filoni isn't stopping to make the fans who have anticipated this series for so long happy.
There is No topping Anakin/Vader story he is the Beginning middle end and After Math
I climaxed watching it
gets me mad that J.J. said you can't please old fans. THIS is Star Wars!!! Filoni always gets it!
I wonder why he didn't direct all the episodes then. The episodes where he is the director are so good.
We are SO not ready for what’s coming.
This proves Anakin is the chosen one, he can just go from light to dark and vice versa at own will
Hayden, he is like Keeanu, the real chosen one, the man who acting one of the most important role in one of the most important movie franchise of all times. This is not forgotable, this is for life with him.
It's amazing how they swapped up Anakin's fighting style based on his saber.
Blue Saber - Quick and flowing parries and strikes
Red Saber - Slower and rigid heavy strikes
Representing the 2 halves of Anakin as both a Jedi and Darth Vader
It was so beautiful. And we all know he let her win at the very end becus he disarmed both sabers just to prove his point. If anakin never got dismembered there would have been nothing to stop him
After so many years of watching sequel trilogy duels, it was refreshing to see Hayden demonstrate Anakin’s speed, vigor, and tenacity with a saber.
18 years later, Hayden still has those slick ass lightsaber moves. It's so fucking beautiful 😢❤
It’s beautiful to see that all of us who always loved him and grew up with him now get to see him again as adults and show him the love we always had for him ❤
Hayden's acting was incredible here. I loved the snips part as well....
Hayden line delivery is exactly like the animated series. Fantastic acting.
9:17 I like how everyone talks about her without her head piece being weird
I forgot how much of a beast Hayden can be when he’s just allowed to be a physical presence
That scene with young Ahsoka sitting with the injured Clone Trooper. Priceless!
The clones of the 501st division believed they had many brothers, but only one sister.
I love that you can tell he is letting her get hits in, to give her chance to fight, to win. It's an awesome detail that just makes me happy!! :)
Anakin is another prime example of jedi like Mace Windu or Bultar Swan. At times, they were able to harness small amounts of their inner darkness and channel it into their fighting abilities, capable of controlling their dark sides while going all out. It was for that reason that Mace was given a purple kyber crystal, representing his finely tuned balancing of light and dark. Before he fully succumbed to the dark side, Anakin was able to switch between light and dark almost seamlessly on the battlefield and beyond. Growing under Obi-Wan's tutelage, not so much, but once he became a jedi knight, he had a firm grasp on it. As we all know, the clone wars and the various instances where his darker emotions grew put immense strain on his ability to control his emotions, leading to his fall. In the times before, though, Anakin was a proven and gifted jedi, well worthy of his title of hero of the republic.
yes. that is the complete anakin. one who accepts both the light and dark. one who achieved balance in the force.
“I will not fight you”
“I’ve heard that before”
AYOOOOO 😂😂😂
Hayden Christensen's acting has improved a lot, I can hear a little Matt Lanter in his voice. Now he's getting the recognition he deserves.
You are absolutely right
His acting was always good, but it was the script that held him back in the prequels
It was never bad
I always found funny the fact that people said he acted like a horny teenager who couldn't talk to women properly in Attack of the Clones. But he was exactly that, a person who never was taught to properly control his emotions, specially when he was such a passionate and emotional guy, like, how he was supposed to act? 😅
@@ferunlx exactly. I didn't see anything wrong with Hayden in Ep2. He was acting the way any dude in that situation and age would have.
He made her face her fear of turning into him. She almost succumbed too. Like Luke, she was able to resist.
This IS GOOD SHIT! The part when Ani flashed into Vader was chilling AF 🤣
Knightfall Anikan was so cool. He was already christened Darth Vader before his horribly horrific injuries put him the iconic Darth Vader apparatus.
You know the Galaxy really was incredibly lucky that Anakin was put into the suit, imagine if He was never deep fried and was allowed to grow to his full strength in the Dark Side.
He would've been unstoppable. Even Palpatine's power would've pailed in comparison to his
I wish that they'd do one of those "What if" episides where we would see what kind of a Sith Anakin would be had not been rebuilt as Darth Vader.
Maybe they'll do it in Tales of The Jedi.
I'm sure that Anakin without his robotic parts would be twice as powerful as the Chancellor or Yoda.
@@JulianoCabellertwice as strong as Palpatine and 3 times as strong as Yoda
Star wars isn't Marvel
I mean. If you read the books that were written before Disney got ahold of the franchise it explicitly states the Emperor wanted Vader in the suit, he KNEW Anakin was far stronger than he was, he directly states it. Anakin was by far the most powerful entity in the Star Wars universe and the Emperor knew he couldnt control him forever so he needed to depower him in order to actually maintain his own life. In the suit he was barely human which left his connection to the Force nearly nonexistent. It said he realized the Emperors betrayal and tried to muster up the power to crush him with the equipment around the operating table but was unable due to being half robot now. Vader in his suit was already the terror of the galaxy. Vader without the suit would have controlled the galaxy.
Worth noting that when Anakin "turns" into Vader, even during the duel, hes teaching her. She had left herself open in desperation and he didnt strike her even though he could very easily do so
My fav part is how he has the robotic sounding voice of Vader when he says: “You Lack Conviction”
this episode was the best so far, and the detail with her eyes getting red in the reflection of the saber, rly was a great moment symbolizing the choice she had to make.
I don't think her eyes turned red from the lightsaber. Her eyes looked uniformly yellow.
This is beyond "fan service", was an amazing episode
The references in this show are just incredible. Especially when Anakin called her Snips. I was so freaking happy
"you lack conviction" as it mixes with Vader's voice
Yeahh, and Vader Breathing
I can't wait to see the fans' reaction when Hayden comes out for next year's Star Wars Celebration.
The next Starwars celebration is 2025
@@noysounds Thanks for letting me know, I'll be watching his career with great interest till then.
Thanks for compiling this! I've been trolling reaction videos all day for Episode 5. I enjoy the reactions almost as much as the show. Reliving it with other people is awesome!
That Shoulder adjust to vader Flash gave me chills. I loved it so much
When it's all said and done this Ahsoka show will be considered a masterpiece.
It definitely is
A masterpiece? Be honest with yourself.
Ok, take Hayden out of the show and what do have?
Is there any other part of the episode being talked about? Not in my feed.
@@myflatlineconstruct you do something like bring Hayden's Anakin back, have a 1v1 lightsaber duel between 2 iconic characters, have flashbacks to a time we only saw in cartoon form........ Yeah nobody is going to talk about anything else lmfao.... gtfoh
@@myflatlineconstruct I mean, this part of the episode was by far the main plot point. Ahsoka needed to get over her trauma of the end of the Clone Wars and losing her master to the dark side. Anakin helped her confront all of it.
@negativevibesquad271
" Bring Hayden back" . Yeah let's revisit say, 5 years from now. The only thing you're going to remember is that Darth vader showed up. The rest of the show is a disposable mess. Forgettable bulshit that is disrespect to real artists. Gray..and distended.
Ashoka the White calling the King of all Purgils: ShadowFaxMachine
This episode was absolutely incredible. One of the best Star Wars things I’ve ever seen. Seeing a live action recreation of The Clone Wars and seeing Hayden as Anakin as well as a live action young Ahsoka, Luke and Rex was all something I’ve wanted to see for as long as I can remember and it was handled unbelievably well. I hope we see more things like this. I’d love to see a live action Anakin, Obi-Wan, Ahsoka, Luke and Rex talking. As a massive Star Wars fan, this was everything I’ve ever wanted to see and more.
I’m surprised they’re surprised that Anakin wouldn’t turn back into his normal self. I knew going into this he was beyond any form he had taken prior. Full mastery of both light and dark, true balance in the force. That’s part of what makes him so powerful in this celestial form. His limit is higher then any being to have existed, and he has fully mastered both light and dark. He didn’t go all out in this fight, he was simply teaching Ahsoka a lesson… hope to see more of this form in future shows…
After everything, Anakin achieved perfect balance in the force. The way he embodied the fury and relentlessness of Vader with the style and intensity of Anakin, we see him with both his personalities in perfect tandem. I also loved how he said "So that's what this is about" and then switched to Vader to let Ahsoka take out her frustration on him.
Igual les digo que Anakyn en esta toma de rodaje. El mismo director le dijo que le vajara el nivel la velocidad ya que la chica no puede llevar la velocidad de el y asi que fue mas lento y leve para la toma de la filmacion. Aun asi como se estrañaba verlo y solo en un simple recuerdo su aparicion.
I love it, it's 2023 and people still have an orgasm when they see Darth Vader.
Hahaha
“フォースに選ばれし者”は光と闇を問わず、真の意味でフォースを使いこなしていると言っても過言ではありません。
I saw the original Star Wars release in the theater, I have seen all of the movies and every series associated with the Star Wars franchise. It would take me days to list all of the printed media I have read. I just spent 52 minutes trying not to cry.
May the force be with you
12:24 May the Force be with all of us
People underestimate Anakin/Vader all the time.
Ahsoka is a formitable force wielder by the time of this episode. But just look what happend when Anakin decided to unleash the dark side in him to show her the importance of motive, decision and conviction. Something she always pushed ahead of herself since she was a padawan. Had she not decided, with conviction and heart, to end the fight her way, she would have died there and then. No doubts. Vaders side of Anakin was ready to kill her on the spot. His character has nothing that could be called bloodlust or some sort of insanity, that gives him this unbelievable strength. Vader is pure darkness, raw, unshielded evil bowing to his decisions alone. Only following his own path, morals and wishes. If it is death he is wishing for, death it will be. If he wishes to safe his son, so it will be. BUT HE NEVER EVER DID HESISTATE. Not when slaughtering the younglings, not when he killed palpatine, not when he gave his Scholar her last lesson. Hayden was the perfect cast for that role.
When I saw the shots of him going from anakin to Vader I had full body chills. Still do
"You lack conviction" in a robotic voice was awesome, that was pure Lord Vader.
Anakin Skywalker is the Chosen One. The Balance between Light and Darkness. The Good and Bad.
It's clear....Anakin is the new Father.
And just when you thought it can’t get any better , Episode 6 has got our mouths drooling for Episodes 7 and 8 … the Ahsoka series is the best so far out of Disney… God bless Filoni !!!!
What I love is she refers to herself as a Jedi with the subtle line “in a Jedi’s starship”
The call backs to revenge of the sith and clone wars was perfect…
Did everyone forget that we literally had LIVE ACTION CLONE WARS FROM THE PREQUELS 😂😂😂 I FEEL LIKE THEY ALL FORGOT THAT IT CAME WAYYYY BEFORE CLONE WARS SERIES
Ming Qiu's fight choreography in this show was AMAZING!
This is one of the best live action episodes of the Star Wars franchise to date. I cried so much during this.😭
This kinda of flashing and symmetry between Vader and Anakin is everything a chosen one fan dies for. Anakin will always be the best character and the flashing was just such good visual story telling
Even Anakin´s fightstyle changes when using the red lightsaber. Its more forcefull, more Vader-like.
I dont see many people following on the theory that during the training, Anakin was also preventing Ahsoka from drowning.
“I promise you, I will even learn to stop people from dying.”
I’ve always believed that the Jedi‘s final trial was not the construction of their own light saber, but a rejection of the Darkside of the force. Luke became a Jedi, not when he defeated his father, but when he rejected the Emperor, and all that he stood for.
Seeing it in live action really puts into perspective how young ahsoka was fighting a war
Anakin should’ve said “I taught you everything you know, I didn’t teach you everything I KNOW” in response to Ahsoka saying “looks like you don’t have much to offer”!
Way too less poetical.
Thank you so much for including us! This was great :)
Thank you very much.
True to form, Anakin’s idea of a lesson is “GET UP, YA BUM!”
"Again" Anakin TOTJ
There are times when we all need a Mick in our corner.
My other enormous issue with Disney Star Wars is their inability to be consistent. Every time that the lightsaber was ignited in episodes 7,8,9 it would bother me A LOT. It sounded COMPLETELY different. In the Ahsoka series, when Anakin ignites it they use the CORRECT lightsaber sound. Why did JJ Abrams and the others feel like it would be cool to tamper with the sounds?
I love that Ahsoka has always been able to hold her own against Veder when her head is in the right place. She would have against Dark Jedi Master Sexy if her head had been right & she had been duel wielding & using her talents. She was trained by a guy that fought like him. Using HIS technique is not going to work using the technique he taught her to BEAT a big guy like him does!! I mean she at least had him at a draw in rebels.
This episode should be put in an art museum
I just want a Dave Filoni Star Wars trilogy. Is that too much to ask for?
Honestly, this episode with Hayden was AWESOME! It's much better and more emotional than the Obi-Wan show and it's finale. Disney should have given Obi-Wan to Dave Filoni. It would be so much better.
All it takes for Lucasfilm to understand the fanbase, is to watch this video. This is it. This is what brings the fans in.
They lack conviction....😊
The fact anikin has full control over the dark side like that is insane lol the amount of power he has is crazy
The way Hayden says "You lack conviction" and "Incorrect" are so badass. Especially incorrect, he says it and you just feel like "well damn, I guess I'm just screwed now"
Blue saber means friendly
Red saber means enemy out to get ya 😂
Anakins training: live or die, conviction training, youngling massacre moves
And you can tell Hayden is still holding back! (I mean for his apprentice he isn't trynna kill for half of this, fair) but just the memories of the speed.
Her eyes changed in this episode, She had Sith in her eyes. Like a reflection of her master.
When he said ''you lack conviction'', he sounded like Matt Lanter :O
One more time he proves he is the balance btw both sides !!
this hole EP is a gorgeous gifht to the fans !!
This is just my opinion, In these scenes, Ahsoka is in the limbo the place between life and death, Anakin is the the one who will take her to the death or send her back to living world so he ask her to choose her path by training her and see if she gonna giving up or keep fighting, the choices should be two ways in anakin belief
First, Ahsoka give up and die then become the spirit and one with the force
Second, she will become stronger by using the dark side of the force and keep fighting in the living world
The thing that surprised anakin which is the Thrid choice
Ahsoka choice, She still don't want to fight but she will live to train her student to be in her place then she will die peacefully afterthat so she still have Hope in her student
So anakin send her back knowing ahe still have business in the living world and know she is strong enough even not using the dark side of the force
The people in these videos are the people the usher would kick out of the theatre lol
tapped into the dark side then deactivated it. Mans connection to the force as a whole on screen 🔥 😌
Now I understand why Rosario Dawson said that episode 5 is her favorite…. 😊
This is Master Skywalker. Anakin as he was always intended to be. A Child, an Avatar of the Force. Watch him closely in this fight. He is controlling every aspect of it. It is a work of art what he is doing to Ahsoka. From that first thrust, that came out of nowhere and put her off balance, that was the work of a Master.
Every step of this fight is a teaching moment brought to its highest level. Master Skywalker could walk through an army of the greatest Sith who have ever existed and annihilate them. Any survivors would be kneeling before him.
That is not what he wants though. Adoration is fleeting. Power will always be challenged.
Crafting a legacy that will endure for all time, that is a challenge worthy of a Master.
Did they realise hows fk badass Anakin is now.... he can control the Light and the Darkness.. he can walk both sides of the force and he master'it.... he became a godslike !
Watching these amazing reactions from this bunch in the journey that i'm taking watching Ahsoka, Obi-one Kenobi and the Mandalorin has made me a FAN of the Star Wars, well, everything! These reactions from the people who truly know their stuff is the gift that keeps on giving! Thank you so much
I don't think that was him as a Jedi or a Sith. But perfectly balanced as he ALWAYS should have been
I love how they ahowed Anakin has mastered both sides of the force and his hybrid dueling style from when he was armored. He truly would been a force to be reckoned had he mastered this while he was living.
"when you need me, I will be there. When you want me, there i will no longer be".
We need more of Anakin!! This is what Star Wars needs now. Even if its like this. Love.Hayden!! He has worked sssoo hard on this character.
We have been waiting for you to share since the morning 😊
I just managed to share it. I finished it in just 5 hours :)
He learned the power to save the ones he loves
All the people who did not watch clone wars and rebels are pissed right now 😂😂😂😂
I never realised this but in the mandalore scene with the back shot of ahsoka and anakin looking over the battlefield ahsoka is in a fog of light while anakin is in a fog of darkness
The flashes of Darth Vader gave me goosebumps reminding me of the days of Hayden Christensen
Dave Filoni truly understands what every Star Wars fan really wanted and he delivers it !!! ❤❤
Absolutely I agree.
When people say this episode sucked: "Incorrect."
