I like the idea that we got so used to seeing people like Obi Wan, Dooku, Anakin, Mace Windu, Yoda, and Palpatine, that we forgot they are each in and of themselves able to give a masterclass in lightsabre combat. We're seeing the best of the best. It's cool that the series has toned down the skill of other actors by comparison; Hayden feels like an immensely powerful threat.

So many things I love about this scene. 1. The Call back to Return of the Jedi. Also the call back to revenge of the sith. Where he turns his back to draw his lightsaber with his right hand. Almost like a small gesture of honor. Similar to how before all Jedis duel, they remove their robes and take their handle in their hands and ignite the saber. It's Anakins own little routine. That's very cool and It's very Jedi like. Love how he kept that. 2. This whole scene is reminiscent of Jaro Tapol and Cal Kestis. A Master reaching his apprentice from the afterlife to still teach them a life changing lesson to renew their mindset and value systems. 3. Anakins lightsaber fighting style. He locks sabers first to assess the strength of his opponent, then he uses his own power and strength from his feet to push down and that pushes Ahsoka further back. Anakin is so light on his feet, yet he deals devastating consecutive powerful blows with each saber swing. It overwhelms his opponents and pressures them to uncomfortably be on the defensive. This makes them vulnerable. His offense is so overwhelming, that it leaves his opponents little to no time to react and counter. They mainly block and try to recover. Anakin is always in control of the fight. His attacks are powerful and lighting fast. His attacks then leaves them open. Which gives Anakin opportunities to capitalize off of their mistakes. Much like when he faced Dooku. He's still managing to gracefully step in place. His footwork is exceptional. He has terrific balance. And he's in control of the whole fight. Moving her where he wants her to move. It seems like combat comes to him so effortlessly and naturally. It also seems like something he enjoys, and also looks like its something he misses. Especially the one handed saber twirl he does. That's always been the coolest saber move to me! It's so great to have Star Wars’s main character back. The entire Saga is about Anakin and to have him back feels so right. It's amazing. Hayden knocked it out of the ballpark. We need more.

I love your analysis of Anakin's skills/Hayden's performance. In the lore, Anakin's fighting style, Djem So, focuses on aggression and overpowering his opponent with sheer, force-augmented strength. It's genius that he would initiate with a saber lock to gauge his opponent's strength-- plus from a viewer's perspective it's such a cool way start to a fight. Also it's neat that Hayden's athleticism and passion for saber choreography parallels Anakin's hot temper and love of combat. For Anakin, fighting in the Clone Wars was an outlet for his aggression and anger, much like how for Hayden, playing Anakin is an outlet for his own energy and love of choreography.

Having never seen the cartoons with her... it's kind of interesting that without overtly saying it, you can tell that his concern is that she is just like him, as though he has self awareness about who he was. Whereas it also seems that her concern... is that she is just like him, with regards to who he became. This scene actually showed a lot with regards to the two characters, their relationship and how that relationship fits into the overall... just by showing a lightsaber duel. Damn, whoever wrote this is GOOD

I'm so happy to hear this! I'm a big TCW and Rebels fan and I grew up with Ahsoka watching her since the end of season 2 of TCW. I really enjoy the hell out of her series, but I still wonder what others who aren't familiar with the show think and I'm so happy that those same emotions that I've felt watching this as a long term fan have been felt by someone who isn't into the animated shows.

Highly recommend watching The Clone Wars. Not only gives scenes like these in Ahsoka a deeper meaning, but also it's a masterpiece of a series. It is literally up there with the likes of Breaking Bad in terms of writing, possibly one of the best series ever made despite being animated.

It warms my heart how easily Hayden slips into Anakin again, not just because he's returning to the character, but the fact he's embracing the changes Matt Lanter left on the character. It goes to show that Hayden really does deeply care about the franchise and the character.

I cried so much seeing him. This series is so well written 👏 🙌

With determination and desire, they continue their intimate "training" session, fully immersed in the energies of the World Between Worlds.
