OneStar Wars RebelsEaster testis inAhsokaepisode 5 proves that , even after his buyback , Anakin Skywalkerstill needs to get retaliation . Anakin ’s return inAhsokawas met with considerable fanfare , especially because this was the first time Anakin Skywalker and young Ahsoka Tano were shown together in live - action ( and in the Clone Wars earned run average , no less ) . This was made possible throughthe World Between Worlds , which bends the rules of place and time .
It was n’t entirely clear whether this was in truth Anakin , as his appearance in the World Between Worlds seemed quite discrete from his appearance as a Force ghost intheAhsokafinale . However , Rebelsproved that Ahsoka Tano was able to travel through time in the World Between Worlds because Ezra Bridger saved her from Malachor . Whether this was the ' real ' Anakin or not , though , one Anakin Skywalker scene inAhsokaconfirms that he never really subdue the need for revenge .
Anakin Used Ahsoka’s Own Move Against Her In The World Between Worlds
Anakin Replicated Ahsoka’s Move From Rebels
Ahsoka ’s first showdown with the World Between Worlds was inRebels , which also happen to be her very first cheek - to - face confrontation with Darth Vader . On Malachor , Ahsoka faced off against her former master , at first judge to invoke to what lilliputian of Anakin remain within him and then conceding and take in a lightsaber affaire d’honneur with him . All signs direct to this battle lay claim Ahsoka ’s life ; however , Ezra was able to pull Ahsoka out from this moment long after , through the World Between Worlds .
Before Ezra pull her out , though , Ahsoka taste one deception in particular : she used her lightsaber to destroy the ground beneath Darth Vader ’s foundation , leave him to fall to depth unknown . If that move sounds familiar , that ’s because it is . This is on the dot what Anakin did to Ahsoka in the World Between Worlds when he slash the pathway out from underneath her , mail her into the Clone Wars flashback .
This is precisely what Anakin did to Ahsoka in the World Between Worlds when he thresh the footpath out from underneath her .
This Move Was So Typical Of Anakin
This Tit-For-Tat Behavior (However Playful) Is Just Like Anakin
Ahsokadoesn’t affirm that Anakin did this to get Ahsoka back for what happened inRebels , although the similarities would be a bit too coinciding . This is also simply distinctive Anakin behavior , and feel an awful lot like the personality he showcased throughoutStar Wars : The Clone Wars — notably , the only other show that really depicts Anakin ’s kinship with Ahsoka . Even when Anakin was largely considered one ofStar Wars’most knock-down Jediand was training Ahsoka as his Padawan , he still had a propensity to seek revenge .
The most unsettling example before his gross fall to the dark side is of course his slaughter of the Tusken Raiders inStar Wars : Episode II - Attack of the Clones . This was incredibly macabre , but Anakin take in it as little more than retaliation for their anguish of his mother , which result in her death . Even in more playful scenario , though , Anakin was n’t one to plainly let thing slide . It seems almost certain that when Anakin slashed the way of life out from under Ahsoka ’s feet inAhsoka , he was getting her back for that move inRebels .
Anakin Skywalker / Darth Vader ’s influence on Star Wars can not be overstate , and this sodding timeline represents all the fundamental upshot in his report .
Not Even Death Has Changed Anakin’s Personality
Ahsoka Proved Anakin Remains The Same In Many Ways, Even Now
As refer , it is n’t entirely certain whether Anakin Skywalker was really himself in the World Between Worlds , specially because he was flashing between Anakin and Darth Vader in ways that made him seem much more like an illusion Ahsoka was seeing than like the true Anakin . Even so , it ’s open thateven after his repurchase , Anakin has n’t changed all that much . While he may not be Vader any longer , he retained his sense of temper , his predilection for twit , and , apparently , his demand for payback as well .
It will be interesting to see how this plays out inAhsokaseason 2 . Hayden Christensen ’s return as Anakin Skywalker is n’t yet confirmed , but it seems very probable he will be back , not only because Christensen has been clear he remains interested in recall , but also because theAhsokaending confirmed that Anakin is on Peridea with Ahsoka as a Force ghost . It would be odd ( and a monolithic wasted chance ) forAhsokaseason 2 to not include Anakin , given that .
What make this particularly interesting is that this Force ghost is confirmed to be Anakin after his repurchase . Ahsokaseason 2 may therefore elucidate who on the button Anakin has become following the events of the originalStar Warstrilogy , his buyback and destruction in peculiar . For now , though , thisRebelsEaster testis inAhsokasuggests thatAnakin Skywalkerhas maintained much of his personality , even now .
