Obi-wan Kenobi Star Wars TV Show Discussion by Seun(mod):
When I heard that there was a show about Obi-Wan Kenobi starred by Ewan McGregor, the same actor who played him in the prequels, I knew I had to watch it because Obi-Wan Kenobi is the 'heart' of Star Wars. I've watched the first two episodes of this show; they were pretty good.

It was hard for me to understand why the black inquisitor who was obviously powerful had such a fresh face compared to the others. I couldn't see her as anything other than "cute" until she uttered the words "your fear betrays you". Then I was like, "ok, she's Sith. I believe her."

I have to say that the show is a solid 7/10. Many Star Wars shows have featured characters who aren't central to the story, like the Mandalorian. This show features characters that we know and love and care about. Obi-Wan, Anakim, Leah, Luke, etc., So it should be more engaging.

There are a few points in the story where characters acted unwisely to drive the story forward, but they didn't stop me from enjoying the show.

I just don't want to be dragged in and then get disappointed.

I find Your lack of grounding in the expanded star wars universe disturbing

Allow me to present the second sister

The extended universe is essentially fan fiction, so I find it hard to pretend that it's all part of one coherent story. I like Ahsoka a lot though.

The character in Obi Wan Kenobi is actually the third sister, not the second sister.

The character in Obi Wan Kenobi is actually the third sister, not the second sister. The actress is extremely young; probably in her teens.
The second sister featured prominently in star wars jedi fallen order, a star wars game released 2 years ago

I think the second sister might be the chinese looking Inquisitor. The black one is definitely the third sister:

Would I still understand and enjoy it if I didn't watch the prequels?
