I'm betting Anakin felt alot of respect from the clones aswell, he had always been a little looked down upon by the jedi despite being the chosen one so having the clones see him as a superior probably felt pretty good.

"A job well done, *_General_* Skywalker. I wish more Jedi had your military sensibilities." -Captain Tarkin to Anakin Skywalker, Circa 20 BBY after the Escape from Lola Sayu.

I would love to see flashbacks to the clone wars in the Kenobi series, especially a flashback with Cody and Rex in it!

"You're in this command post, but we do not grant you the rank of Commander."

Got to love how this just came out, especially after the 20 year anniversary of Attack of the Clones. 20 years ago we finally understood why it is called the *Clone Wars*

When you mentioned Anakin training younglings. There's a episode in Rebels at the end of season 2 where Ahsoka is meditating over a holocron showing Anakin training younglings.

Absolutely loved the novel brotherhood. Really examines anakins character. Mature, wise, a great jedi master/teacher and extremely powerful

5:18 Check out the Queen Amidala's handmaid art in the background! Never noticed that during the show.

I think Anakin really was one of the leaders who saw his men as people, i really want to see how that clicked with him. Also I am looking forward to the next video! Sounds like it will be interesting.

I’m about halfway through Brotherhood, and absolutely love it! It was perfect timing as I just finished Master and Apprentice a few weeks ago. 2 must reads!

im not the only one who finds the prequel Ara more interesting. the sound offs like clone was to rebels

It just shows how Anakin felt sad he was so disillusioned but he should Express his feelings a little more to his master. He is so much like Qui-Gon it's Erie such a Maverick. If Qui-Gon had survived he would not have fallen to the dark side.

YESSS, I can't believe this is the first video we ever get of the new Canon book Brotherhood, I love it. I'm really hoping to get my own copy of the book pretty soon when I graduate Community college. 🥰🥰🥰

I loved this audiobook. Id like to see more from Chen. It feels connected to Master and Apprentice, and Dooku Jedi Lost. Felt like Season 0 of The Clone Wars, it has Easter eggs and references to the old Clone Wars cartoon too.

I loved the Brotherhood such a quick read. I think I went through it in two days. Love your vids

Thanks for the video General Theory 🤘 I always was curious about that topic Awesome video as always

great video! i personally disagree with how he felt forced to be in the war tho, he definitely liked the fighting and feeling like he’s the best warrior. however, his love for padme is also very strong, and those two key things in his life kept mixing his emptions and clouded his judgement imo.

While I do feel Brotherhood is a good read, to my I'll always view the clone wars micro series to be the cannon way of how he became a Jedi Knight (even if Disney won't agree with me) because I feel that show had great build up to him becoming a Jedi Knight where as in this novel he's rushed right into it. I like the idea that Anikin was a padawan for a few more months after attack of the clones. In my opinion clone wars 2003 is the cannon version, but still you don't have to agree with me and I recomend checking out brotherhood.

Emperor on Mustafar: "Due to your injuries I can no longer grant you a seat in the Empire as Darth Vader." Anakin: sobs because of the pain and what he's heard Emperor: "Oh, and your wife is dead". The Emperor takes off, leaving Anakin in shambles and left for dead

" we are keepers of the peace not soldiers" 2 days later "Leading an army of clones into battle"

How did you feel the first time we called you...General Theory? 😉

Always posting things we didn’t even know we needed keep it up 👍😃

Anyone taking bets on how many times obiwan says “so uncivilized” while using blasters? 😁 I’m so excited for this series!

The thumbnails alone are awesome, really makes me wanna see a Live Action phase 1 clone wars movie 😍

I wonder if an Anakin flashback will also reference his role as Ahsoka's master. That'd be cool if they put a young ahsoka briefly in the show. He had a really positive influence on her, making it all that more tragic when he falls. It's not crazy, as it would allow the audience to become a little more prepped for the upcoming Ahsoka show.

This voice is just chilling and so relaxing to listen to, idk if you have podcasts with this voice, but i will look for it, so i can hear a story of star wars before sleeping, the voice is just so nice

Love you theory so gassed for the watch parties and kenobi content🐐🐐

Yes The Clone Wars flashbacks would be great Theory. Great video man, thanks.

Glad to see I’m not the only one that listened to brotherhood the first day it came out lol

Anakin has always seemed to gotten more respect out of the clones then the Jedi which is why he was so attached to them. They gave him the recognition/respect he deserved from them which is why I think the clones are as close if not more close to a brother to him then obi wan is. To me obi wan seemed like the funny uncle type to anakin or the bigger brother type. He’s trying to be cool with anakin but parent him at the same time and keep him in line which is hard for someone to follow especially when they themselves are doing the same things you are.

A comic about Anakin and Rex's first fight/meeting would be nice.

Now we just need Master

I can’t wait to get this new book soon!

One of the best things about the brotherhood novel? It freaking canonized alot of 2003 clone wars.

This book is really good I'm on chapt 32 so far. It's really deep with some clone wars characters all around.

I know you don't do many "What If" videos for Star Wars, like what if Anakin defeated Obi-Wan" or "What if Anakin never turned" and so on, you should make a video on if Anakin was never in Palpatine's eye of wanting him as an apprentice. Maybe have Darth Maul's "revival" or another character to fill in his place or something like that. I'm a big fan and keep up the great work!

Yo! Anakin didn’t partake in the Jedi trials. His actions in the Clone Wars gave him a battlefield promotion to Jedi Knight.

anakin: "i really just want to be a jedi master and a good husband" the council: "none if that will ever take place. please do not resist."

Heyy theory, I just I wanna say thank you all for all your star wars videos. Love you man and you make my day every day. Have a lovely day further. I appreciate you so much 😌

The Vanity Fair interview and photos are awesome!!!

Just read JEDI TRIAL to see how Anakin Skywalker felt being called a General and how he performed as a General. Still a damn good book.

I can imagine Anakin's reaction to being called a General.

I love that ominous track you used for this. Samuel Kim is a legend. I hope we'll get to listen to it someday

I would have assumed that Anakin would have liked that since titles are his thing but apparently in the new canon he did only care for being a master because of the archive so I guess that's out of the window

This is outragious! It's unfair! How can one be a general and not be a master?

I hope we'll see some clones in the obi wan series

You should do a "What if Anakin never lost his Arm" video. would love to see your take on that

I finished Brotherhood over the weekend and I thought it was a very well written book. It’s not as good as Master and Apprentice but it dives deeply into the relationships of different characters in the prequels. My only problem with it is that it seems like there isn’t enough action.

One thing I like is that this is only a few weeks before he meets Ahsoka. The Battle of Christophsis was only 7 weeks into the clone wars and that’s when Anakin and Ahsoka meet.

So flashbacks including Rex would be epic. Theory ur the bestttt

I think in the Attack of the Clones novelization I believe Padme's family was at the wedding. I could be wrong but I know I did read that somewhere.

Couple of seconds into the video and I ordered it ^^ so excited

This is actually pretty awesome!! Ready for Kenobi and celebration 😎💯

Just got Brotherhood today and I’m looking forward to giving it a read!!

Great video, love Anakin and his journey so much

That was fascinating Theory. 👍😉

After hearing about this interaction, I wonder what it was like when Anakin and Rex met for the very first time, especially since they eventually developed a great deal of trust in each other.

I want a live action run of Clone Wars episodes. New or remakes would suffice.

I can't recommend this book enough! I just finished listening to it on audiobook and it was an incredible dive into a pivotal transition period for Obi Wan and Anakin. The narration, sound effects, and storyline are top notch. Go get a free trial of audible and listen to it now!

Anakin was made to be a Jedi in War Time! I think he was taken a back when the title General was given. As he was just given the title Jedi Knight after EP. II.

Man theory I haven’t been watching you videos I’m sorry but I’m getting back to them I love them and miss them hype for more man! Talk later

What if venom boned with anakin Skywalker after his defeat by obi wan

Another great vid

Why did Anakin get the rank of Jedi Knight he got his ass kicked by Dooku and lost an arm?

I wonder what would have happened if Anakin stayed as the new "father" in Mortis to keep the balance of the force by keeping an eye on The Daughter and The Son. P. S. For those who do not understand what I meant by Mortis or The Daughter/Son you can watch the whole ark in The Clone Wars animated series.

YES the outro music RETURN!!

"General SandWalker, reporting for du-" "What did you just say?...." "....crap..."

WHAT IF: Luke haven't gone into the cave of evil?

Weirdly enough, Ezra from rebels fulfilled his wish of saving lethal with on the other hand anakin never saved tatoonie. Interesting how things turn out sometimes right?

Just finished Brotherhood at work today, Fantastic Novel and the biggest thing I took away from it was how much of a force of good Anakin could have been had his life not been so tragic.

6:18 that makes the youngling scene during Order 66 even sadder

Amazing!

I just finished the book last night - so amazing.

0:31 wait I swear he was a master in AOTC?? He’s even in the Jedi council in episode 2.

Just finished listening to the novel right after finishing Dark Acolyte. Felt so weird hearing an evil Asajj Ventress after her redemption arc.

I just finished the audiobook the other day, it's a fantastic book

I love the thumb nail so much

Yeah I also cannot wait to see and I hope for some order 66 flashbacks about ANAKIN in the Jedi temple. It would be so awesome!

I picked this book up when it came out haven't started it but after hearing this I'm feeling getting excited to read it. I'm a little weary to because I'm afraid it's going to go woke. Or at least woke parts thrown in there for no reason. Which is pretty much how woke dose it in entertainment.

I love how Lucas shows the evolution of technology in Star Wars in the original trilogy all the ships could go to hyper space but in the prequels they needed something attached to them to do this also Luke getting a new hand that feels like it never got cut off while anikan got stuck with a shitty robot arm that he couldn’t feel also I know there’s a bunch of things that I’m not mentioning but those are really the two main things

Theory, could you make a video on how Obi Wan reacted to Shmi Skywalkers death and how he was maybe there for Anakin?

Brotherhood😳

What if they had called him *generic* instead?

Anakin probably felt a rush as he was getting his first real taste of political power being call general for the first time because for once someone had to do what he said he got to give the orders instead of fallowing them he was no longer this little boy that they could order around (not that Anakin really listened to them anyway) but now he was a man he had the power to make others do as commanded this is a true truing point in Anakin's life as now he is finally getting the respect and recantation he deserved and wanted.

The extra hate this book gives Anakin for sand is so great. But this book also gives us a description of a female clone pilot. Like they made female and male clones of Fett. Also, this book brings up leaving the order and Anakin says he never heard someone talk about that. Where in the OBiwan comics Anakin and Obi have a great deal of discussion on it. It's a great book tho, with just a few inconsistencies.

First time they call him General Anakin: What!?

Is the Brotherhood book worth getting? I’m considering it

You should get hired to read the audio books. I could listen to you read any book any time ;D

I thought reaction was gonna be like Oh goody, I’m a general now but I’m glad it wasn’t and was just surprised that he’s now a soldier

I like how he is talking about anakin's good relationship with the younglings, then onscreen it cuts to him killing them in order 66.

good vid

Omg this writer understands Anakin so much I love it!!! You can definitely tell he's a fan and not some guy doing it for a payday which is nice imo.

He was disappointed, he wanted to be called master.

Just got it on audible it's ok so far

The outro reminds me of assassins creed 3

I know Jedi say they aren't soldiers, but wouldn't they have already contradicted this long before the Clone Wars and long after? They are in an eternal war with the Sith over the dominance of the Force. On top of that, they've already fought in several wars for the Republic against Sith Empires, Zyggerians, and even Mandalorians. Meanwhile, after the fall of the Jedi, there are still Jedi who take up arms and become members of militaries. Many surviving Jedi become soldiers and officers of the Rebel Alliance, like Ezra, Kanan, Ahsoka, and Luke. And even after this, Rey becomes a member of the Resistance. To be fair, the Jedi also try to stop conflicts before they stop, like during the Invasion of Naboo. So I would say they are both peacekeepers and soldiers. In war, they will defend the Republic and by extension the galaxy, and in peacetime, they handle political issues between planets.

QUESTION: How did Anakin know how to force stroke ? He did it with such ease on Padme. I really thought you had to learn these kind of Sith powers.

This is why ankins my favorite jedi

In my semi, just started this audiobook..

I would love for flashbacks to the Clone Wars but I'm becoming more and more convinced we are not going to get them.
