@ yup. And if she did not believe him. Why would Anakin? Would Anakin have been able to sense Maul was telling him the truth where Asoka could not? Hmmm 🤔… Well, it is something to think about anyway.
@cambuxton6835 Well Ahsoka didn't have a decade worth of first hand experience of Palpatine grooming Anakin to be his apprentice. Maul would also likely be able to use things that only he and Anakin had experienced with Palpatine to help convince him. Even if Anakin didn't believe Maul at the time and wound up killing him, he likely would have been more on guard against and less likely to fall for Palpatine's manipulations in the future. Anakin going to confront Maul would have also messed with Palpatine's plan because he needed Darth Vader on Coruscant for order 66 and later the elimination of the seperatist leadership to go as smoothly as it did. If Maul had tried earlier than he did, even if he failed to convince Anakin in the moment he would have been less likely to execute Dooku which would have been problematic for Palpatine to say the least.
Glad I randomly found this!
Star wars = World wars
Death Star = Sputnik
Wish he had tried to.
He kind of did but Ahsoka showed up instead and didn't believe him.
