Best Obi Wan

This is the best interpretation of Obi-Wan yet.

The Obi-Wan in ANH was good, but he was almost too perfect. Almost like Jesus Christ.

The Obi-Wan in the prequels was a little more relatable, but he didn’t have a strong character arc.

The Obi-Wan in the Clone Wars series was much better. We got to see more of his fears and desires with his impossible love for Satine.

But the Obi Wan in the Obi-Wan Kenobi series is the best one yet. His PTSD is handled really well by the writers and Ewan Mcgregor. He is a broken man who goes back and forth with hope and without hope. Then his sweet interactions with Leia are priceless. Plus, he talks about being taken away from his family at a young age and how it still affects him.

I am really enjoying this and I am looking forward for more.

good points. but the young age thing bothered me a little because i thought he was too old to begin the training, like luke was said to be, even though he did, i figured that would me as n he wasn’t taken as a baby but as an older child.

Obi Wan too old to start training?

It believed children are taken to be Jedi’s since they are around 4.
