Because Palpatine, though the most powerful and cunning being in the galaxy, had one simple glaring weakness: overconfidence. He WANTED the Death Star to be a target, even in defiance of military wisdom, basically to say "My empire is so powerful that there is nothing anyone can do about it, even though it is a clear centralized target." His conceit was always going to be his downfall when properly tested. Thrawn, on the other hand, was wise enough to be humble. Humble wisdom will usually always outperform conceited wisdom.

Yup. Did the same by thinking he had Vader completely under control. Literally depended on him to defend him against his own son, and turned his back at him when he was electrocuting him to death. His master died the same way by getting drunk and falling to sleep in front of him, ironic.

Even though Darth Pelagius was caught off-guard the novel states instead of Darth Pelagius fighting back he thought that he would be able to survive the encounter because he believed that he was impervious

So, basically electrocuting Plagueis and his respirator with force lightning was inspiration for Sidious crafting Darth Vader’s suit the way it was in case he needed to do so again?

3 Hours of the Senate, I have to watch this so I can learn how to take control of the World.

Plagieus didn’t die 12 years before…he died the night Palpatine became Supreme Chancellor

I have never had the slightest doubt that Palpatine LET Mace Windu "win". Without question, he could sense Anakin's approach. Without question, he proved himself easily far beyond any of the other Jedi - indeed, even Master Yoda was in the end helpless against him and had to flee. I find it EXTREMELY hard to believe that he'd be overtaken by just Mace Windu, no matter how skilled with a blade he may be, because IF that were the case, first of all, he should have seen Anakin cutting his hand off coming. Second, if it were so easy to defeat him, he wouldn't have very likely sent Yoda running for cover. We know from Lucas that Darth Vader is only about 80% as strong as Palpatine and that becoming Vader arrested Anakin's progress and stopped him from reaching his potential, which would have exceeded Palpatine. Yet, Yoda fights Dooku and doesn't really WIN - Dooku walks away from it - while Anakin by himself overcomes Dooku and kills him - which at minimum puts Anakin at this point at a place where he can compete with the likes of Yoda. Palpatine easily deals with Yoda and yet doesn't last a fraction that length against Windu, and sorry, I just don't think that Windu is that strong. That's what people like to BELIEVE - but if you just look at on-screen feats with the lightsaber and force, Palpatine's performance is more impressive - he's shown to be more agile, faster, and fiercer while - and regardless of if it's because Sam Jackson is no trained acrobat or warrior and was older even then, George COULD have chosen to use CGI to make his performance look better - but Mace comes off as very slow, very clunky, taking wide, incredibly telegraphed swings as though he's holding a baseball bat instead of a lightsaber in the same film Palpatine is seen bouncing all over the place and doing spiral spins with a lightsaber, throwing senate platforms around like toys - we don' see ANYTHING like that from Mace. So to me, it's OBVIOUS that Palpatine was using the situation. After all, think about it. REALLY think. He knew Anakin was still on the fence. He knew that if Anakin decided to throw his hat in with Mace, he MIGHT have some trouble facing both of them at once. His PLAN, you have to remember, was to erase the Jedi and build a new sith empire - and to DO that he needs his apprentice - he has had his eye on Anakin from day one and he was certainly not FORGETTING that at this time. Had he simply killed Mace on the spot, WHAT HAPPENS WHEN ANAKIN WALKS IN THE ROOM AND SEES THAT HE HAS SLAUGHERED ALL THE JEDI? Anakin was on the fence. He may see it as murder and decide that Palpatine can't be trusted. He may turn on him and force Palpatine to kill someone he had great plans for. Anakin GOING to Mace earlier and informing him that Palpatine is a Sith Lord SHOWS his indecision. He even shows disgust when he discovers Palpatine is one, initially. So if Anakin arrives to 4 dead Jedi and a cackling Palpatine, Anakin will feel that he was RIGHT, see the JEDI as the victims, and the plan is ruined. It was seeing Mace trying to KILL Palpatine when Anakin had said he should stand trial for his crimes and it's not the Jedi way that TRIGGERED Anakin to turn on Mace - because in that moment he realized the Jedi were all talk and did not realy follow the path they'd told him was right if they're willing to go so far as to cut Palpatine down when he's "helpless". So, Palpatine left Mace Windu alive. You don't find it odd that the other three HIGHLY skilled elites were taken out in a heartbeat but Mace alone lasted? What, he couldn't have saved the others in some way, blocked Palpatine's attack? If he's so good, SURELY he could have done that and saved at LEAST one or two of them. But they all get cut down like flies - like they're not even Padiwans - and only Mace remains, and why? BECAUSE PALPATINE NEEDED ONE ALIVE FOR HIS DEMONSTRATION FOR ANAKIN - that demonstration was designed to SHOW Anakin that the Jedi were not what they had presented themselves to be and he chose MACE specifically because he knew the Jedi well enough to know that Mace Windu was the most likely to try to kill him rather than arrest him. He killed the others right in FRONT of Mace to ANGER Mace so he'd WANT to kill him. It was only when Anakin was getting very near to arriving in the room - when he was going through the halls, already in the building, and surely Palpatine could sense him coming if Vader could sense Obi-Wan when he wasn't even ON the Death Star yet - ("a presence I've not felt since...") - ONLY THEN did Palpatine start"losing" - before that he was gleefully dancing around and having grand time with Windu. Look at it like that and it is OBVIOUS that Palpatine was using Mace as a tool. Mace would have been killed on the spot like the others if Palpatine didn't NEED him for his demonstration. Do you REALLY think for a moment that IF Anakin had been killed and Palpatine sensed that, and THEN those 4 came in that Mace would be walking out of there alive? Do you REALLY think Mace would have been the grand hero who saved the galaxy? No way. He'd have been fodder.

I personally believe that when yoda said if him and obi wan are apart, they may have a chance, he meant that yoda himself will likely die, but obi wan may still be able to convince anakin. And anakin has the best chance out of all 3 of them to kill sidious since he has the element of deception.

Yoda was in over his head when he challenged the Emperor in a one on one fight, and he should have known better. The Emperor managed to remain hidden throughout the Clone Wars and manipulated the entire war throughout the entire time so that he directed suspicion away from himself! That alone should have given Yoda a clue as to how powerful and dangerous he truly was.

After Anakin got rekt, nothing was the same. His entire plan was to take over Anakin's body one day. And since he couldn't do that, and he didn't want to risk Vader taking control of a portion of the military, which he easily could, and challenge his rule. Which means he couldn't find and groom a new suitable apprentice. Since Vader couldn't fight palpatine outright, palps knew Vader could take a large portion of the military as his own. No reason to risk that. So he changed his plans to cloning, but since he already got rid of the Kamionoans, who were the only ones known to truly master cloning and even then it wasn't perfect, and most of their knowledge, most of his efforts were met in vain.

this one is awesome!!! keep em coming sir!

Great and informative series on Palpatine.

My favorite character in all of Star Wars 🤭 I love Palps so much he’s such compelling/interesting character. LOOOVEE his lighting, I just think everything about him is so cool

People wonder why the Jedi search the Galaxy for force sensitives and require everyone to be tested. Then if one is founded before sensitive, they are taken into the order. This is because force sensitive individuals can do great harm to Galaxy around them and the citizens of the Galaxy agree that this could be a dangerous weapon if left unattended. The fact that all of the suspects had one primary person in common, holding greater authority to all of them, should have blown Darth Sidious's cover as the person pulling the strings. Palpatine should not have felt disappointed in the Inquisitors. They're training was intentionally limited to keep them from growing to powerful. You get what you invest. Guess the same could have been said about the Empire itself. He would only give power to individuals that he did not directly train. He trusted all military training to impart his will into beings that were not him. Maybe he should have started cloning himself. Creating clones with limited or no midiclorians, so they would never be able to replace him. This way, he could be everywhere at the same time, literally. Same goals in mind, same philosophies and opinions about everything.

I love the background music in these videos!💯‼️

If you look at the paths behind Anakin while he looks down before he says "There is hope for you, yet" it's as if there is a path for each decision she could have made; death would have sent her on the on the other path off to the left of the frame, instead as Anakin make eye contact it pans to show the path she will continue on

I reread the Kenobi novel before watching the series. So obviously..... I was initially disappointed. Upon further observation, I realized the series was developing early history for Leia and Kenobi's mid-life crisis. I enjoy every moment of every Star Wars project: some more than others. As a fan who saw the original film at a drive-in at 7 years old; there is nothing I can complain about regarding the Kenobi limited series. As a fan, it is my responsibility to enjoy, analyze, discuss, and preach the magic of STAR WARS. May the Force be with you, always.

31:21 listen closely…I sense someone ripping ass during the explanation….I’m a huge fan…but I can’t help my dark side by pointing this out 😂

I also wonder if vader was holding back every time he met someone from his past like obiwan or ahsoka, and this just proves it because he was always struggling with what he was doing

The book art of war by Sun Tzu and II Principe by Machiavelli, Darth Sidious/Emperor Palpatine uses many of the philosophies in these books. It pretty much shows how to use power tactfully and maximize your success. There are also many dark aspects to these philosophies.

I fr thought you said the night of the assassination palpatine "crapped his cloak" lol wish that was canon

Three hours you say….makes sandwich and rolls a couple of zoots…..you have my full attention my friend!

On a real note. Had Mace Windu waited until either Yoda, Obi Wan, or Plo Koon were there for the arrest, Sidious wouldn't have survived the fight. But if Obi Wan had been there, Anakin wouldn't have attacked Windu, 100%.

Next lore compilation, Ahsoka

Yoda was speaking cryptically. He, as a Jedi master, has been on the planet for over 800 years. He can feel the force and see the future, and he knows Anakin Skywalker's kids are on the way. He knew even if we lost the battle, we haven't lost the war mentality. He had Obi fight Anakin because the Master always fights the apprentice. What better way to test skills? Obi won that fight just like he did against Darth Maul as an apprentice under Gin Maul. It also shows how great Obi is with his dueling skills, and when he fought Darth, a.k.a. Anakin, he just vanished, not even fighting him because he, too, has become old like Yoda. Still, he probably understands what Yoda meant all those years back because he realized that we will always have a future generation to fight the dark side, just like Yoda.

Thoughts on the Darksaber.... I think it would be too much of a hassle to explain how he got it. It would certainly be a great bargaining chip in the future though?

While Palpatine was captured by Dooku. Why didn’t the other Jedi use order 37. Arrest everyone and threaten to kill in response to the evidence they found. Also, Mace said the dark side surrounds the chancellor. Kill the people who follow him

I believe the grand Admiral Thrawn his concerns were justified and it would’ve been better if the Empire would’ve produced ships such as the eclipse which was a massive star destroyer with a death star like super laser mounted at the front of the ship, and if the Empire had multiple ships like it the empire could’ve spread its presence far and wider than it did in the original Continuity with a single battle station, which was in the end, a massive target for the rebels to exploit and ultimately destroy

Cool

Dude is evil, but he's always laughing.

Palpatine rolling on the ground laughing, tears and all. Thats why Vader tossed his ass, dude clowned him and gave him pink eye weekly.

"The Dark Side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural."

you might have missed where in rebels, he tried using holos to look like he was healthy when he really wasnt. its a small thing that adds on to the politics of star wars. watched sevel times but i might have missed it.

Sidious's blade was long as hell!

I want to add to your point with Vader being another Grievous: Yes Darth Vader would be like General Grievous, but a lot more terrifying. Even before Grievous became the cyborg he was he was always a psychopath and he blamed the Jedi for what happened to him. (which wasn't their fault btw, but he doesn't care) Whether he's Anakin Skywalker or Darth Vader; he still one man you didn't want to piss off.

Sidious’s plan was so complicated and convoluted it is unlikely to work in reality. There were too many places for the plan to go wrong. Too many things had to go exactly right. I am not sure why Lucas thinks of these complicated and unrealistic plans. It’s just like Luke’s plan to save Han for Jabba. Too complicated.

At the 2:36:14-16ish second mark, where you/he talks about Anakins M-count being lowered due to his severed hand & most, or at least a decent-sized portion, of his forearm/right arm below the elbow along with Sidious' belief that the sacrifice of some of his total M-count being worth the political/propaganda value, which implies that his partially lost & now artificial partial limb has quantifiably lowered his force potental/maximum power level. I thought M-count worked like nerves or pain/sensation receptors or something similar to where its not the total amount in ones body overall, but rather the density of their distribution/how many are in one particular size-unit of space of an organic body as opposed to how many total are in a beings entire body. Therefore, i always thought Anakin/Vader having an artificial forearm/hand as having practically no effect on his potential power, except that he would likely only be capable of force lightning with his left, organic hand so that his metal artificial hand wouldnt short out and/or malfunction, was/does anyone else view the Force/Midichlorian count/Force users/etcetera, this way?

Ehh. I love the videos out about this duel and the one before. The one question I have is this. She lasted pretty damn long against Vader. She also did pretty well against Vader. Even 80% as powerful as Palpatine Vader literally mowed down pretty powerful Jedi. If anything I think it makes sense she would struggle but ultimately defeat him in the second duel. JMO.

Running a COMPANY, BEING A SENATOR, A HEAD COACH, A FULL TIME PARENT, A PRESIDENT, ANYTHING with authority can be a DAUNTING AND STRESSFUL THING. BUT running a GALAXY......COME ON....thats DOING TOO DAMN MUCH.

I believe it was the voice of Darth sidious that uttered the words "dew it" when I ripped the Adamantium out of wolverine.

So palpatine took a zabrak boy with unlimited potential and trained him to be a sith but only a broken and despairing assassin. Squandering the power and potential that Maul had. Whom then becomes a sith powerful sith without Sidious. Then he took the chosen one and groomed him to be the most angry hateful and powerful sith in the galaxy, then, unintentionally, Squandered his potential as well. And ended up with a broken assassin as an apprentice
