If you're Reva and you were recently on Tatooine where you suspected Obi-Wan was and where you met a guy named Owen, wouldn't you start there?
The finale just cemented the fact that Revas storyline was unnecessary, and forced due to wokeism (strong black female inserted here)
Vader told her that he knew her plan. And although she knew the OBW connection to Leia, knew who Anakin was, and eventually who Luke was and where exactly to find him in this massive universe, Vader somehow never felt Luke or Leia in the force for 20+ years????? bullshite
Any threat to Luke could have triggered the events of this miniseries without involving Leia or Reva. Plus both were terrible actors in this storyline, to the point it lessened the impact of OBW or Vader when they were on the screen

Was anyone else waiting on a "Now I have the HIGH GROUND" line from Vader?
It was right there!

I don't know who the rest of those people are, but i'm not sure why you'd expect Vader to ultimately kill his son, or his padawan, or his master. Kick their arse for a while sure, but he'll never be able to go through with killing them. It's why he turns back to the light, b/c deep down inside there's good in him always, and he'll never be able to kill those people b/c they are his only family.
What about the other 6 Jedi?
Dude - Vader, though injured, is the freaking Force incarnate. He can “not kill” people while simultaneously kicking their asses.
I love my kids but I’m going to let them kick my arse.

Series was good if you love fireworks aka can be distracted by pretty lights and an admittedly cool fight scene in the middle of by far the worst thing disney has done to the skywalker saga.
Obi Wan leaves Anakin ON FIRE on fuggin lava planet Mustafar, and now that he is the number 2 in the oppressive galactic empire that overthrew the Republic OWK loved, AND after Vader said Anakin is dead, he doesn't kill Vader?
The power level thing was just bad... Vader was the strongest being in the galaxy at the time of that fight. Obi-Wan beat him before he had any actual Sith training and while he was still young. I believe according to lore Obi-Wan wasn't even really on the level of Yoda, peak Luke who was comparable to Vader, or even someone like Mace Windu. Obi-Wan's strength was his intellect, leadership, and character more than his outright power.
Reva was a disaster.
I feel like Disney had been really true to the lore up until this point, but they made a bunch of characters do either wonky or just plain out of character actions just to get another Vader/OWK fight at the end of a soulless series.

He was knocked unconscious, so he has no memory of the events of that night. Duh.

Selective amnesia which is what I have about this entire show. It’s like it didn’t exist or was a fan film I watched on YouTube

As someone else mentioned, he also never really saw Reva. For all he knew, it was a Tusken chasing him.

Yep. This fight was not something that needed to happen, but they wanted it for the buzz for the show, then had to have this so it could still tie into the ANH line. It is dumb. This fight should have ended with Vader proving that there was no way Obi Wan could beat him. Obi Wan could still do something to trick Vader and get away even giving some line about him still having much to learn, but he should have left this fight knowing there was no way he could ever beat him. That would give all the more reasoning as to why he then became a hermit on Tatooine, like Yoda after his loss. That then leads into Obi Wan discovering the new hope in Luke and learning how he can help Luke through the foce like Qui Gon, which then leads us to his line in ANH when he tells Vader he can't win.

how is that even possible that you can be in charge of something as big as Obi-Wan and Vader getting back on the screen, and you didn't even see watch the movie that sets your show up?
If that is true, then they shouldn't be hired again for anything b/c it shows their pathetic lack of work ethic, respect, and passion for what they write about.

Yep ask anyone who’s seen Rogue One casually what they remember about the movie - literally ANYTHING before Vader shows up at the end…
Crickets
Vader’s appearance saved that movie and caused many MANY people to gloss over how big of a piece of shite it is
Disney isn’t doing anything worse than before - it’s just the fan service isn’t covering for the flaws anymore because the nostalgia’s been knocked off
I mean, Disney did the same thing with this series - dressed up a piece of shite show with “Vader action” at end to distract the tards (and ended up throwing away Obiwan’s entire point of existing in ANH along the way)

I know I’m in the minority but I don’t get the hate for this show. I really enjoyed it and the Vador/Obi Wan scenes were badass
We all agree third sister sucked but for me it didn’t take away from anything
It’s a solid B/B+ for me

K2 was a great drone.
"I am one with the force, the force is with me"
yea the Vader part was awesome, but it was still a good movie without it.
There were story arcs for both main characters, side characters you cared about by the end of the movie, a good drone, a great battle in space and on the ground, and great music. That's all star wars is anyway.
Had that movie ended without Vader, and just having Leia get the plans and say "hope", it still would have been a good movie.

How one can be hired for an Obi Wan series without watching the prequels, Clone Wars and Rebels is fascinating to me.
Overall this show gave me more Obi Wan, which is a plus, but the hunt for Luke by Reva was pointless. When watching the show, do you think Owen Beru or Luke will die?
She would’ve been better off joining the fight against Vader.
As far as Obi Wan is concerned, the ending frees him from being stationed on tattooine, so they can run it back with new adventures-like avoiding Maul. Maybe Reva joins Maul. Or Cal Kestis. Obi Wan can also run into Ashoka
As for Vader, this series uses the same ending as his arc in Rebels. Emperor sidelines him around Jedi.
Filoni should just run everything.

We know why, but it make absolutely no sense as to why Obi-Wan didn’t kill Vader when he walked away.
That’s not Anakin anymore, it’s Vader. Anakin is no longer a thing and is dead so with that said that should’ve been even more of a reason for Obi-Wan to kill Vader. At that point he’s just another bad guy, but of course he leaves him be as “Darth”.
Pretty mind blowing that we have a top 3 character in the Star Wars universe and Filoni isn’t in charge, but he’ll oversee a made up one and knock it out of the park. The higher ups are fricking dumb.

It wasn't just the writers, it was the Reva actress too. She wanted to do her own thing, that is why she didn't watch any of the prequals or Clone Wars. She was dumb enough to say this in a interview, I guess that is empowring.
I didn't find the show woke, it was meh and Star Wars shouldn't be meh.

That would be pretty hard to do considering he already isn't the chosen one.
