Do you think Obitine has ruined certain elements of who Obi-Wan was in the prequels? To me, it *feels* like he went from not telling The Council™️ about Anidala because he loved Anakin so much and wanted him to be happy (in the prequels), to not telling The Council™️ because then he’d be a hypocrite for doing so (in ‘TCW’).

I don’t know about that.

Personally, I don’t like Obitine much but that has more to do with Satine’s character (not getting into that here) than anything.

Jedi are allowed to love after all, they are to be compassionate, kind and hell, Ka-Adi Mundi is after all married in the legends stuff, he has seven or five wives with either seven or five kids (I always mix the numbers) and he’s actually not the only Jedi that do have wives according to legend stuff.

And Jedi are also confirmed to not be celebate. All of that comes down to a personal thing, who wants to do what and what is right according to that persons cultures as we see Jedi being encouraged to know their people, I mean, if they didn’t then people like Luminara wouldn’t do the traditional headdresses and such on.

Now, the issue comes in with attachement, selfish love, love that you put in front of everything else, possessive… there is a difference.

So I don’t think Obitine ruined things when it came to Obi-Wan. Obi-Wan showed that not only could he let go of his love but he could move on, he didn’t do EVERYTHING, (Didn’t go dark side, didn’t do illgal things or bad things) to save her and when she died, he didn’t go beserker rage mode (like certain people). Obi-Wan pulled himself up by his bootstraps, reminded himself who he was and MOVED.

Do I THINK there are elements that made me wrinkle my nose when it came to Satine and his relationship? Sure.

But I don’t think it ruined Obi-Wan’s character. I think it showed us that for all that pain, and all his desires, Obi-Wan remains at his core a selfless and compassionate man that just wants peace, both for himself and for those he cares for.
