Warning, spoilers. It is recommended that you watch Star Wars: Episode 5 of Ashoka before reading this article.
It was one of the most anticipated episodes for Star Wars fans: Chapter 5 of the Ahsoka series delivered on all its promises. The show, which centers on the famous Jedi, played by Rosario Dawson, took the series to another dimension by bringing back the legendary character from the Star Wars universe.
Appearing at the end of episode 4, he is in the foreground of chapter 5, titled “Shadow Warrior” and directed by Dave Fillon. This unique episode marks the reunion between Ahsoka and her former master Anakin Skywalker (Hayden Christensen).
A Jedi and his former Padawan find themselves between worlds, a place that lies between time and space and that binds all moments together. The one he affectionately calls “Chip” (as in the Star Wars: The Clone Wars series) needs, he says, to “finish his training.”
If Ahsoka finds herself on this high ground, it’s because she’s close to death after her losing battle with Beylan Scol (Ray Stevenson) and Anakin challenges her to find a way to life. Light and life will return.
Star Wars fans celebrated the return of Anakin Skywalker
Together they fight with their lightsaber and at the same time share memories. We find them years in the past – where Ahsoka is played by the young version of the Marvel star and Barbie – on the battlefield of the Clone Wars, which is the main event of the animated series. Star Wars: The Clone Wars.
They also find themselves in the middle of a battle during the Siege of Mandalorian, a clash of the Mandalorian Civil War involving Clone Commander Rex and former Padawan Ahsoka Tano. Anakin Skywalker, on the other hand, was busy fighting Obi-Wan Kenobi on Coruscant.
These “flashback” scenes were praised by Star Wars fans who loved the moments shared between Skywalker and Ahsoka. Fans were also delighted with the performance of Hayden Christensen, who can be seen in a younger version thanks to the aging technique (digital technology that makes it possible to make an actor younger or older, editor’s note).
The actor once again reprises his most iconic role, Anakin Skywalker, but also Darth Vader, as the character’s inner conflict is very much represented in this episode by the Sith Lord’s theme music and amazing transitions.
Against this union and another confrontation with the dark side that still haunts Anakin, Jedi Ahsoka chooses life and ends her training with her former master. This attitude allows him to come back to life and make peace with his old demons to be ready for the mission that awaits him.
Fans are now looking forward to the sequel to Star Wars: Ahsoka, which promises new twists and new epic battles. Along for the Jedi adventure are Mandalorian Sabine Wren, played by Natasha Liu Bordizo, and Twi’lek Hera Syndulla, played by Mary Elizabeth Winstead. Together, they will try to prevent the return of Admiral Thrawn (Lars Mikkelsen) and try to find their friend Ezra Bridger, played by Eman Esfand.
Star Wars: The Ahsoka Series is currently streaming on Disney+.
