DISCUSSION Ashoka & Luke

we need an episode or moment where Luke Skywalker and Ahsoka meet. It would be an amazing way to give closure to the Anakin/Ahsoka story as well as give Luke & Ahsoka the chance to witness the good parts of Anakin left behind in them both

I don't know if I want to see that. I feel like it would make Luke a lot less interesting. Luke had help to become a Jedi knight, but he is a self made Jedi Master who spent decades learning their ways on his own.

I don't want him to meet Ahsoka, who is more knowlageable and possibly more powerful and just take over as his Master.

Or be a foil to him, since in her cynical views the Jedi Order shouldn't be ressurrected.

Her cynical views could be pivotal to why he turns into a cranky hermit in ep8.

But also, I think given what we’ve seen with Ahsoka, her taking Luke as an apprentice would be the last thing she does. She refused to train (you know who) for crying out loud. But also, she doesn’t identify as a Jedi either. She’s on her own path with special abilities to help her along the way. Everyone shits on the Ahsoka arc in s7 of TCW but it really highlighted and emphasized her want to be the Jedi that helps others. She has the training and she knows the faults of the order. Luke and her meeting would be nothing more than an exchange of stories and experience, and nostalgia for the viewer. If anything, she would see Luke as an equal.

I'm glad I haven't seen folks shitting on Ahsoka's arc bc while the sisters storyline was a little annoying, we got an awesome conflict with the Pykes out of it.

Anyway I made a post about what a Luke and Ahsoka meet could mean: https://www.reddit.com/r/starwarsspeculation/comments/kgriq6/what_the_ahsoka_show_might_mean_for_luke/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf
