The legendary battle between Obi-Wan Kenobi y Anakin Skywalker in Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith He gave us an unforgettable collection of moments. The tough fight on Mustafar is still considered the best lightsaber choreography ever seen in the galactic saga and with an iconic outcome.
And Kenobi’s phrase warning his apprentice that “height gives me an advantage” has been etched in stone, since in his arrogance the newly converted Sith made a fatal mistake. He jumped over his teacher so that several of his limbs were severed, which left him in a bad state that was aggravated by a series of near-fatal burns.
That is the origin of the iconic Darth Vader suit, but the PlayStation 2 and Xbox video games allowed us to live a completely different experience. During the campaign we alternate between both characters fighting in levels, but in Mustafar’s combat we can choose who we control. If we pick Skywalker and win, we’ll see how height did not give Obi-Wan the advantage.
As we see, in this scene Anakin does manage to jump over the Jedi and does not hesitate for a second to pierce his chest with the blue saber. Once his body falls to the edge of the lava, the Sith returns to the platform where the ships landed to meet Darth Sidious
While inspecting it, Anakin decides to turn around and proceeds to finish off Sidious, also through his chest. The new Emperor dies, the Clone Troopers are confused about what they should do, and Vader clears up any doubt by ensuring that “no… the galaxy belongs to me”
