Why Anakin Feels Different In The Clone Wars

Ойын-сауық

Anakin Skywalker is one of the most well known movie characters to exist. He's been brought to life by a multitude of actors, each adding their own flavor to his portrayal. Join me in this video as we analyze his story by comparing the character in the prequels vs the animated clone wars, and why they don't, entirely, feel the same...

    I see them as the same Anakin. The war was the peak of his life. He was married, was a knight, an equal to Obi-Wan, leading his men on the front lines and training a padawan. The movies show him before and after this during more tumultuous times. In AOTC he’s anxious being around Padmé for the first time again, still a rebellious padawan under Obi-Wan, and is having visions of his mother dying. In ROTS after they get back to the surface of Coruscant, he starts having nightmares of Padmé dying and becomes anxious again. But during those first 20 minutes in the Battle of Coruscant, he’s still got that Clone Wars Anakin charm.

    Personally I feel the Anakin we see in Ep3 really wasn't so immature, just Ep2, which was definitely jarring going from that to Ep3 before TCW show started and bridged the gap. Damn shame Lucas and the team didn't take more time, and figure to make the prequels a hexology rather than just a trilogy, and build that hexology with all the good relevant material that ended up being in TCW....

    Clone Wars is his prime and shows how great warrior and person he really are, but there are some hints of dark side in Clone Wars series too, especially when Ahsoka was framed, which ruin his trust in Jedi Order. In ROTS, you still see glimpse of prime Anakin in Battle of Coruscant, but nightmares and how the Jedi Council treats him really make his distrusts resurfaced and he see Jedi as hypocrites (which is not entirely wrong), but his loyalty to his closest person is both his strength and fatal flaw, his fear of losing Padme and loyalty to Palpatine who he considers a friend really sealed his decisions and fate.

    Anakin wasn't immature in the Prequels imo. In the films, with the exception of episode one, he was shown in the darkest moments of his life, losing his mother and threat of losing his wife and children. Only, in episode one, was he the most stable because Shmi knew how to raise him. As far as the Jedi, including Obi-Wan, is concerned, when a person asks you how you feel, and then goes on to tell you those feelings are wrong, or judge you for them, you don’t want to confide in them. That is exactly what happened with Anakin. I cannot think of one single occasion in which Obi-Wan really listened without judging, dismissing his feelings or telling him they were wrong. He even told him flat out to ignore his dreams about his mother and said they’d go away. The Jedi were even worse. They didn't know how to raise the kid or how proper human emotions work. They only mouthed down to him about how his thoughts dwelled on his mother who raised him or how his feelings can destroy him without teaching him how to properly harness them. For people who calls Anakin immature, humor me. How would you feel if you lost your mother to be a bunch of savages, or having visions of losing the other parts of your family in the same way after the last visions you got about your mother came true?

    The 2003 Clone Wars Anakin seems more in line with his character from Episode 3, but the Clone Wars 2008 made Anakin show us more of his other characteristics, like his love for his friends, apprentice, wife, and also his master Obi-Wan. It shows us that he really deeply cares and that he goes off based on his emotions, which is highly against the Jedi code. So, we can see it building up for his undoing from that perspective. Another thing is the intensity of Anakin in the Clone Wars micro series. To me, it shows more of his dark side persona at all times, and he feels more pressured that Obi-Wan doubts his abilities or always questions Anakin's methods. Of course, in the 2008 Clone Wars, it does this too, but to a certain extent, not as much. It made it feel kinda off since they always seem to be trying to ignore each other's tactics in favor of their own. But in the 2008 Clone Wars, he does this a few times. Anakin mostly agrees and is more aware and willing to hear Obi-Wan out sometimes before rushing ahead without a proper plan. I have a few more things I have in mind anyway. For the moment, that's all I will say about Anakin. Besides, I like both the 2003 micro series and the Clone Wars 2008 equally.

    Simple: its because he was written different. In the original clone wars from 2003 his character is consistent with the movies. Which is not surprising as those shorts were meant to bridge episodes 2 and 3 instead of fitting in stories where they didnt belong. TCW is kind of like that trashy halo series. It uses a popular IP to tell completely unrelated stories. The only difference is that TCW did it the smart way and managed to make it feel like it belonged to the franchise despite the writers taking *A LOT* of creative liberties. And in the end the characters most affected by this were anakin and grievous.

    So the clone wars made Anakin mature but in the movie made him childish. That I know but why would they do that if it defeats the point of Anakin turning to the dark side? Like I know George wants to explore more of Anakin & Obi-wan’s past, but if you change more of Anakin’s character then it would be confusing if his character changes in the movie ROTS? Now I’m not against Anakin’s character arc, it’s good that he cares (ex his mother, his fellow Jedi’s, Palpatine & his wife) but all I’m saying is that if they made Anakin a different character from ROTS, then there will be things that don’t make sense.

    Personally don’t like T.C.W 2008 compare to the 1-3 movie’s Anakin, as well as giving him a Padawan who isn’t important or exists in the movies, 1-6. I also dislike how Anakin in this sounds different from the films, like I question why, I assume it’s how Anakin’s in the movies character is disliked. He’s already knighted, we don’t see his relationship between him and Obi-Wan like in A.O.T.C, how he’s rebellious and arrogant. He’s already mature in the series and it doesn’t really seem to develop much outside a few scenes where he rants to Obi-Wan about being lied about his death. I think the relationship should’ve developed overtime rather than just them being chummy. Anakin also feels like a stale character who just gets angrier overtime. Also think Ashoka is kind of boring too, and her being Anakin’s Padawan was a mistake because she doesn’t have an impact on his character in the films. Anakin was becoming greedy of power after the death of his mother and became desperate as he tries to save Padmé from dying also. He’s selfish and possessive. He doesn’t the Jedi for making him spy on the father figure (Palpatoonis the Senate Man), feeling they’re being treasonous. However, when Palpatoonis reveals he’s the Smithy Lord, and tells the Jedi, he’s conflicted and makes the mistake of saving Sidious the Hideous by unintentionally helping him kill Mace Windu. Now he aligns himself with the Smith Lord in hopes to save Padmé by sacrificing the entire galaxy for her. Unfortunately, he lost her and is encased by a crappy life supporting suit meant to make him feel pain while keeping him alive, fueling his anger. Ashoka doesn’t have any affect within the films cause she doesn’t exist and is never acknowledged despite her existing around the same time and is on a mission on a bootleg Mandalore planet. That’s my problem with her, she isn’t important to Anakin. Clone Wars (2003) got it right, it didn’t change Anakin, nor give him a Padawan, it instead kept him consistent with his personality of an arrogant Jedi Padawan who looks up to Palpatine as he gives Anakin the recognition as Anakin believes he deserves. He has the same relationship with the other characters too, Obi-Wan being an actual father figure who sees the flaws of Anakin as he should improve like a student, a loving relationship with Padmé who they both are bothered by how their relationship needs to be kept a secret and isn’t obvious to the Jedi.

    I respectfully disagree because the 2003 show didn’t give us a full anakin and just showed us the one form the movies and not the one obi was remembering from episode 4, this show gave us the full version of anakin and giving him ahsoka was a smart move because it give the story a brother and a little sister dynamic where he cares soo much about her and giving his fall to the dark side more impactful

    Agreed. TCW Anakin never felt like Anakin to me. And also I didn't like Anakin's trauma arc about Ahsoka's leaving the jedi order. Especially in season 7, "How are you, where are you?"(This quotes is from Anakin), I mean, dude, the same guy in the off-screen materials, novelisations, films, always meets Padme despite all the rule, war. "All padawans now know where to find him." And now Anakin became disciplined jedi? Did he never get to meet Ahsoka? Didn't he ever investigate where she was? What I said also applies to Ahsoka. It's as if they didn't want to kill the character but at the same time they wanted to make it suitable for the movies, but the result was a forced scenario. I feel like they should "end" Ahoksa in TCW. Not need mention that this show did a lot damage to old c-canon. Now Filoni do same things to the new canon lol. Revenge of the sith did a good job portraying Anakin as good friend, and warrior. They made balance between Anakin's toxic and good side until he became Vader. I saw this when Kenobi and Obi-wan talking eachother last time(when Anakin still was Anakin not Vader), Anakin felt like a warrior in the opening scene. Anakin felt like a good guy when I read "not from a jedi" chapter of rots, when he still defending jedi teachings but Palaptine manipulated him. But he also has a toxic side, when he admitted that he would k/l the tuskens AGAIN if the same situation will happen. He said it to Krayt in the republic And I really felt his power hungry, toxic, personality who recognises every move personal when I read Mace and Anakin's talk in the novel. I prefer Clone Wars Multimedia Project and prequels. While in another hand we got TCW. Padme and the Senator's relationships, Anakin's reaction to them was really good and nothing else... That's it. Other times he was almost wise, visionary like OT Yoda. A patient master, a calm older brother, lol which he isn't, he shouldn't be. And clone wars became a child game which almost every time Republic wins, Grevious became a joke, the jedi rarely got killed. I understand that this is a child show, protagonist must win, but... Lol I mean I don't feel like this is a war, the war should create a trauma on Anakin I think. The reason I love the toxic side of Anakin in the movies and cwmp is that there are reasons for that. His obsession with saving people made him hungry for power, fear of loosing Kenobi and Palaptine gave him dark side amp. Palpatine's manipulations, and giving Anakin "choices" made him kill Dooku. Ah Dooku, and Dooku became an average cartoon villain lol.

    ​@dannyrodriguez9966 "The show didn't give us a full Anakin, and just showed us the one from the movies" Sir, the CW2003 montage literally begins with Anakin being a cunning warrior, and a good friend. You get the full Anakin in the first minute of the show. Which makes me wonder if you even watched it

    I don’t particularly think TCW did a good job at all at bridging the gap between AOTC and ROTS. Season 1 Anakin feels almost exactly the same as Season 7. I feel like seeing a real change in Anakin’s maturity was better shown in Clone Wars 2003 and the multimedia project. Personally, I just feel like TCW Anakin is just more charismatic version of post-ROTJ Luke.
