And he had a huge penis too!
I don’t know all the Star Wars lore, but Anakin describing himself as a “general” is interesting. Did he lead armies?
It isn't like he could say 'Master'.
Even Ashoka had the rank of General. Underneath Anakin, obviously, but still, a General.
Giving a General rank to teenage Padawans probably should have been a sign .
Ahsoka was a Commander. Not a General.
Only Jedi Knights and Masters could be Generals. Ahsoka never became an official "Knight" under the Order (although she far exceeded many of the "Masters" on the council). If it wasn't for the Jedi Council being dumbasses, she likely would have had her trials to become a Knight shortly before she left the order.
Age is just a number when deciding on letting a space wizard lead an army.
A sign that Filoni is a fucking hack... Writing for children.
All the helmets painted with her markings...
They didn't seem to fill quite the same role as modern generals, as we usually saw them leading troops into battle directly rather than overseeing large strategic battle groups or delegating orders to subordinates, but even in the films, the Jedi were directly referred to as generals during the Clone Wars.
"General Kenobi!"
Hello there!
You're a bold one!

All* jedi were made generals during the clone wars.
*Wording on the wookieepedia article makes it sound like not all of them and padawans were just commanders. But iirc all the jedi in the show were generals and at least for the sake of this comment Anakin was a general.
Basically yes.
I think he might've in the clone wars, but I haven't watched much of the Clone Wars show tbh.
You should. There's a lot of good stuff in there, including some genuinely fantastic animation work, especially in the later seasons.
Imo its biggest success is developing Anakin's character to something above a petulant child. It also shows how much work palpy put into wololoing Anakin. With the show's stories inserted between movies 2 and 3 as extended context, his decision to turn against the order becomes the logical conclusion of a long series of serious disagreements and extensive grooming, rather than one or two childish tantrums fueled by a little talk with a sly old man.
Does this mean there is a canon explanation for Obi-Wan thinking Darth Vader killed Anakin?
Pretty sure this was already explained in return of the Jedi.
Obi-wan says that when anakin became Vader, the anakin he knew and loved was dead.
Also in the obi wan tv show
Tap for spoiler
If I recall correctly there's a moment where Obi Wan and Vader talk about this, and Vader says that he killed Anakin a d Obi wan kind of agree.

Hello there. Somehow, Star Wars memes have returned. It's not a trap, this is where the fun begins.
==========
Other universes to visit:
Separatist systems:
Oh hey some real SW content for a change (perhaps):
!starwarstelevision@lemmy.world

Please do not post the "good friend" or similar copypasta

Our galactic citizens have requested more specific rules, so here are a few.
The general idea is, if you're looking here for rules, you're probably someone who doesn't need to have them spelled out. You're fine. But anyway:
-
This is a community for Star Wars memes. This means typically screenshots of Star Wars media with some text or context that's meant to be funny and/or thoughtful. All SW media is welcome: movies, games, comic books, fanart... Other kinds of content, like video links or meta memes (about this community, or Lemmy), are fine as well, just keep it on topic.
-
We are all friends here, and love (sometimes love to hate) Star Wars. Be nice to each other.
-
As fans of fictional media, we can be passionate. If you very strongly disagree with something or someone, take a deep breath before reacting. Anger leads to the dark side!
-
Everything in Star Wars has happened a long time ago, in a galaxy far away, and it's a rich universe of millions of words and millions of years of history. So current Earthly matters really shouldn't concern us here. In other words, leave politics, philosophies and convictions behind the door. This applies even if it's about something related to Star Wars.
-
Original content is preferred. Reposts are fine, just please limit to a maximum of 3 per day, per citizen. It is recommended, but not required, to mark original memes as (OC) and reposts as (repost).
-
Local mods are the Jedi council. They may take actions that are necessary to maintain peace and stability of the Republic, even beyond the rules outlined here. Follow their guidance.
-
Regular rules of the Lemmy.world instance apply.
