Ahsoka Tano's Relationship With Obi-Wan Kenobi Explained
Ойын-сауық
First appearing in the "Star Wars: The Clone Wars" animated movie, Ahsoka Tano was introduced to fans as a headstrong and reckless young warrior under the guidance of Anakin Skywalker. But over the seasons of the "Clone Wars" TV series, she matured and became one of the "Star Wars" universe's most beloved characters.
While Ahsoka is technically Anakin's Padawan, she also had a close and sometimes fraught relationship with Anakin's mentor, Obi-Wan Kenobi. The three make a great team during the Clone Wars, and ultimately Obi-Wan's influence has a huge impact on how Ahsoka views the Jedi Order. Here's Ahsoka Tano's relationship with Obi-Wan Kenobi, explained.

I'd disagree. Obi-Wan and Anakin always had a big brother/little brother relationship. Obi-Wan even said as much in RotS. Anakin and Ahsoka has a big brother/little sister relationship. The three of them together are a wholesome family unit of two older brothers and their little sister. Obi-Wan the wise and rational level headed older brother who has to deal with two unruly little siblings; Anakin the reckless middle child that cares heavily about his siblings and would stop at nothing for them; Ahsoka looks up to both of them and adapts some of their traits into herself, and creates her own amalgamation of the two of them tailored to her own personality.

Obi Wan is one of the greatest Jedi, EVER. I want that to be known first, lmfao. But I always found it funny how Obi Wan always says that he hates politics and dislikes how they interfere or impact the jedi code, yet he is always the first one to listen to and/or scold others for not listening to the Jedi Council and his masters. Completely ignoring the Jedi Code itself, that Qui Gon tried teaching him, which ironically Ahsoka herself eventually embodied more than any other jedi. Especially Obi Wan. Ahsoka wasn't wrong about Obi Wan representing everything that was wrong about the Jedi Council. He was so determined to fall in line and listen to his superiors that he never questioned whether the path or decisions his superiors are making are right for the Jedi to he following. But at the same time, I get it. He didnt be with the love of his life, because she knew that betraying the jedi Council would destroy him, on a personal level. Even though he told her that he would have left the Jedi to be with her. Then after she died, he couldn't ever betray the jedi Council. He has to believe that what they are doing is right. Otherwise, everything that he has given up and lived his life for would be for nothing.
Obi-Wan was the only member of the council that wanted to stand by Ahsoka

While I do agree that the Jedi order made a HUGE blunder making Ashoka leave, Obi-wan did try to go talk to her with Anakin, but Plo'Koon stopped him because it was between the two of them alone. He mostly tried separating himself from the guilt via closing off his emotions and reverting back to protocol with the council teachings.

Obi wan didn't betray Ahsoka. He defended and stood up for her when the council blamed her, but they didn't listen to him. There was nothing he could've done except to vote against expelling Ahsoka from the order, wich eventually he did. In canon, during the trials, Obi wan, Plo koon and surprisingly Yoda, all voted against excluding Ahsoka from the order, but they couldn't do more. I would've have liked to see him standing besides padme in the military thing, and both try to convince them, but as part of the council i dont think he was allowed, neither was plo koon.

Same, unfortunately I don't see it happening unless if they want to make plotholes In Rebels Ahsoka didn't know Anakin was Vader It could be explained that Obi Wan told her the same thing he told Luke that Vader killed Anakin. But he would have no reason to lie to her
You underestimate the scale of the battle for Coruscant. In the novelization Revenge of the Sith, it's represented as one hell of a battle, huge, and it destroyed a good part of the entire planet, killing thousands in the process. I think the truth about Ahsoka is somewhere in the middle. I think the jedi counsel was rotten and she took the best decision when leaving, but at the same time, she tends to be childish and selfish even in those later moments. She acted cold towards Anakin, kind of blaming him, and that hurt him deep, it's visible. And she abandoned him, not wanting to send any message to him through Yoda when asked. Ahsoka is right about the jedi, but I agree with Obi wan too: She was too young and emotionally affected. Sometimes both parts are partially right, and partially wrong at the same time.

I don't think that was her abandoning him. She knew the council didn't fully trust Anakin and probably opted not to give them any more reason to doubt/restrain him, specially after what they had put her through

I rewatched that unfinished scene when Obi Wan and Anakin talk about it as you and many commentators here understood that in a totally different way than I did. So here’s what Obi Wan said: “I will grant you mistakes were made, but she choose to leave. Part of the jedi way is not letting your emotions cloud your better judgment and thats precisely what Ahsoka did, even in her most critical moment.” And apparently you guys interpret it as if Obi Wan was saying that Ahsoka let her emotions cloud her judgment and I understand it the complete other way. I understand that he states Ahsoka precisely followed the jedi way of NOT letting her emotions cloud here judgment and therefore he’s basically saying that Ahsoka did everything right by leaving the order. The reason I understand it that way is the following sentence “even in her mist critical moment”. Sounds to me as if she was even able to see clear in her worst moment. Because the other way around you would expect her to make the worst decision in her worst moment and that final sentence wouldn’t make sense anymore.
Ahsoka, Shaak Ti, Aayla Secura & Luminara Unduli were my favourite Jedi. ❤️ I also had a soft spot for Asajj Ventress because of her back story and her love story with Quinlan Vos

Thank you for this. I have been a devotee to the Star Wars universe since before the first movies. This clips Just stumbled across. The depth to which the characters amd the universe have been developed since the 1970’s is so astounding. I will dig deeper and so appreciate the respect and reverence that so many hold this universe. Thank you for helping the SWUniverse to keep growing and continuing to become so much richer…
Whoever the guy is that did this narration was AWESOME! Smoothest voice on Looper!!
I would love to see a Star Wars “What If…?” scenario where Ahsoka Tano became Obi-Wan Kenobi’s apprentice instead of being Anakin Skywalker’s.
I love Ahsoka she is one of if not my favorite character it was so satisfying to have in a way grown up with her and i loved every part of it

General Kenobi and Commander Tano more like father and daughter but it's very sad that most of the council except for General Polo and Grand General Yoda force him to turn against his daughter figure and he feels very upset for being force turned against her since he love her with his most light heart all the way even a few dark bits were in that heart of his all the way but at least he tried his best to protect her and the galaxy in anyway he could when her passing comes they will be together again and have their father and daughter relationship hopefully fully restore since he misses her every year after he went off to kill Grievous on Utapau but lets hope he will reunite with her one day in the force after life when the time comes right guys
Very cool

The conversation Obi-wan had with Anakin regarding Ahsoka leaving the Jedi Order disgusted me on both their parts, more so with Obi-wan but still with Anakin to some degree. Anakin argues the Council didn't give Ahsoka a choice but Ahsoka DID have a choice, and she made it of her own will and deliberate thinking. Ahsoka saw that the Jedi Order was no longer what she thought it was, that they would abandon one of their own so callously to protect themselves. She was absolutely justified in leaving the Order. Had she stayed, it would have been for the wrong reasons and likely would have resulted in her own death during Order 66 Obi-wan however firmly states that Ahsoka allowed emotion to cloud her mind and that her leaving was basically the reactive tantrum of a child, while denying his own complicity in Ahsoka's decision to leave the Order. Obi-wan is an ideal Jedi in many ways, but he too fell victim to the flaws of the Order, that when Ahsoka needed him most he agreed with the majority vote by the Council to expel Ahsoka and turn her over to the Republic Tribunal, where she came so very close to being sentenced to death for crimes she did not commit. When Ahsoka was proven innocent, Obi-wan did and said NOTHING to apologize to Ahsoka and took no responsibility for his mistakes while the other council members excused their mistakes, flaws, hypocrisies and selfishness on the Force, with only Master Plo Koon giving Ahsoka a true and sincere apology The fact Obi-wan blamed Ahsoka for her decision to leave was his refusal to take responsibility or admit that he AND the council were wrong! When they met again, Ahsoka pointed out the shortcomings of the Order and even Obi-wan was hurt by her words, saying they weren't fair, and Ahsoka responded she wasn't trying to be. I always felt what she should have said was, "Neither was what you did to me", which would have driven Ahsoka's point straight into Obi-wan's heart and mind. When they spoke again via hologram, Obi-wan finally admitted the Council is not always right, which felt like a half-assed apology that wasn't even an actual apology, and that Obi-wan was STILL avoiding admitting that he was wrong or taking responsibility for his mistakes To me, this will always be Obi-wan's greatest wrong; I might be mistaken, there might be other things that Obi-wan has done that are worse than betraying Ahsoka and not admitting to it or giving her a sincere apology, but that's that

If (when) they remake the saga in live action the writers would be smart to draw parallels with Ahsoka's life, Luke's life, & Rey's life. It they cut a TON of fat from the 9 movies & knew the whole story beforehand then the characters would benefit the most. No awful characterization, no Mary Sue accusations, etc.
8:50 it's obvious obiwan knew that wasn't true, but he was too devoted to the jedi to to admit he was wrong
really anakin and obi wan were the closest thing to fathers she had for so long plo koon was also in this catagory and she always loved all 3 like no1 else could and if she became obi wans padawan then she would have been still rash but would also have plenty of patience she showed qualities from both anakin and obi wan being around them both so much but everyone in any universe always becomes more like who they feel closest too in some way shape or form and she felt closest to both anakin and obi wan she knew they both loved when they shouldnt have they both showed rage when they shouldnt have and i like to think that yes they taught her so much but she also taught them things we may never know and understand they wernt just father figures and brother figures to her which is why the betrayal of obi wan hit her so hard it wasnt just the fact the jedi cast her out that hurt her it was plo koons and obi wans betrayals that hurt her most of all anakin tried and did find out what happened and brough barris to justice but the fact that only anakin backed her up hurt her the deepest like a blade cutting inside and she knew she couldnt understand anakin well enough without obi wan to help clarify what she needed to know and explain it without obi wan guiding her she never would have understood anakin as well as she did and the fact she couldnt trust obi wan anymore nowhere near as she used to she believed she needed to get away before her not understanding anakin hurt both her and him beyond repair she didnt know that her leaving would effect anakin so much and without her obi wan couldnt reach anakin if he had her with him they may have been able to bring him back from the darkness look at what happened in rebels look at vaders eye that shows from the hole ashoka made in the helm it went back to blue only for a brief moment but she had gotten through to him its just his rage was far too much to overcome if they had been together when he was turned they may have been able to convince him that doing what he was wasnt going to save padme ashoka protected padme so many times saved her from so many scenerios where padme could have died but i think the reason anakin reverted to vader again is because he thought for a second that if ashoka was there then maybe padme may have survived been protected from the death he feared so much he never realised that in trying to save her he brung about the 1 death he was trying to prevent that was anakins downfall his flaw and by the time he realised this he was too far gone and his hatred for himself grew which is why he told people he killed anakin because he had realised it was in fact anakin himself that caused padmes death in trying to stop it
Really like that narrator.

Ahsoka was also suppose to die. Dave Filoni decided to step in and save her by getting Ezra Bridger to use the 'World Between Worlds' to pluck Ahsoka from the jaws of death. This paved the way for her to live to tell Din Djarin to take Grogu to Tython to call to a Jedi/Luke to take him to be his first Padawan, instead of Ben Solo. Interesting.
I completely disagree with your interpretation of Obi-Wan's comments in "Crystal Crisis on Utapau" about Ahsoka leaving the Jedi. He's saying that in Ahsoka's most critical moment, she did NOT let emotion cloud her judgement.
Amazing commentator
Looper, maybe even get the ideas right lol!
If Ahsoka had returned to the Jedi order, Anakin would've never become Darth Vader. Btw, she is the best character in all of Star Wars but Disney keeps ignoring her. They could've made a series about her instead of that Book of Boba Fett crap.
