yo okay this is a big video I hope a lot of views come to this video not just you
know because I'm a youtuber but because this is really good information one of
the big things that people are saying right now spoilers for episode 9 is that
Rey kissed her cousin because a lot of people are saying that you know
Palpatine created Anakin and it all comes back to this comic right here and
Matt Martin the lead guy for the Lucasfilm story group talked to him a
couple times on Twitter very nice from those interactions very nice guy he's
gone to actually comment on exactly what was meant during this comic during issue
25 of the canon vader comic i've made a video about it brought it to life the
whole thing and this was one of the things that really stuck out to me
because it is such a mind-blowing piece because it shows you know kay basically
if you don't understand it I'm gonna I'm gonna put the comic in here okay if
you've seen the comic feel free to skip I'm gonna put a timestamp but if you
haven't just enjoy it and then we'll come back to it
Vader enters the door to the next world or what I like to call the world of
echoes his soul is now as Anakin Skywalker immediately sucked from a
cybernetic body I'm kind of assuming then that this place only allows the
soul or the force itself of an individual as he walks through he hears
echoes of the past or rather shards of the past through time itself until he
comes across his pregnant mother where Sidious appears behind her manipulating
her stomach as he says unnatural and someone or perhaps him again says the
chosen one okay so this part here is such a big mind-blowing twist because it
shows that Palpatine is like around Shmi who's already looking like she's kind of
pregnant so that kind of throws you off a little bit right there but it looks
like Palpatine's like manipulating midi-chlorians or manipulating the
energy and creating this almost like a embryo or something like a desire or
whatever and it says you know the chosen one it just it really it really
alludes to the fact that he's creating Anakin right now in the Plagueis novel
before we get to the answer in the Plagueis novel Plagueis tried to create
the perfect force entity the the darkside force entity the force answered
back to him and created anakin so plague is never created Anakin
Sidious never created Anakin in legends so this now in Canon is kind of you know
it jarred me even I made a video on this I'm like I'm like is are they literally
saying that Palpatine is creating Anakin now in The Revenge of the Sith original
script something that George Lucas toyed around with was to have Anakin
but to have Palpatine tell Anakin that he was his father originally and you
know there was a script and there was a piece in there where Papa Palpatine was
like you could even say that like I am your father or something it was very he
cut it out obviously because didn't stick but here is what went down
so starburst comic series caused some debate among franchise fans this year
for suggesting that popteen may have created Anakin Skywalker the final issue
of Darth Vader Dark Lord of the Sith series contains a panel where Palpatine
is shown behind a pregnant Shmi Skywalker implying that he had some
force related influence over Anakin's birth if taken at face value
Palpatine could be interpreted as the power behind Anakin's apparent virgin
birth in the series which is very true I mean look at it my guy looks like he's
literally creating midi-chlorians as we speak okay right there so it's going to
read however the Lucasfilm story group has finally moved to officially shoot
down these rumors and it seems that the theory was a case of fans over analyzing
a particular panel okay I know fans overanalyze a lot of
stuff I know I know I overanalyze a lot of stuff but dude come on come on man
this is like really we've never seen anything like that really in legends
this definitely looks like he's creating him anyways this is all in Anakin's head
I can tell you definitively as someone who worked on the comic
is 100% not the intended implication Martin goes on Matt Martin goes on to
emphasize how he wouldn't have approved the panel if it had such a significant
impact on Star Wars continuity remarking it's part of my job to ensure the
stories are aligned with the overall vision of Star Wars if the intention was
to make a direct connection between palps and Anakin's birth I would have
had it removed in addition the comic issues writer Charles Soule weighed in
to back up Smith's interpretation commenting as follows I am in fact the
writer Matt and I worked closely on this series and this point in particular I
hate explaining stuff in my work in too much detail but you need to understand
the scenario happening here the dark side is not a reliable narrator okay so
what's happening in this comic is basically Vader goes into his castle
there's this portal underneath his castle a long story short that was
opened and it connects this world and the next and you know obvious world in
the afterlife he goes in he basically becomes this force vessel of himself as
a dark side entity almost and he can see where you know his real body is and
where his limbs are cut off the white parts are his cut off limbs and he goes
in and he basically just sees all these weird things like he sees Padme and
Padme he's got these like black eyes eventually and she's like very just
distraught and different and weird and she tries to like end herself and then
we see Palpatine like hovering around his mother and trying to like create
something or manipulate something inside of her her womb like it's just it's a
really it was a really dark piece it was my one of my favorite comics but it was
just very dark and it's very interesting to see he even sees Luke Skywalker he
sees obi-wan and Palpatine fighting he fights all of the Jedi Masters because
they all like team up and they just like want revenge on him in the afterlife and
it was just it was a cool comic for sure definitely one of my favorites to cover
so the fact that this has now been put to rest Anakin is I guess has no father
so Sidious did not create Anakin in Kenan
we know it for sure I guess he never officially did and we just jumped to
conclusions but I mean again come on my guy like look at this this is they see I
don't you don't have to overanalyze that much to be like hey kind of created him
okay but um it's good to know that Powell you know Anakin's father is still
up in the air and that's how George Lucas wanted it so I guess that's how
they're gonna keep it I guess we'll see what happens from here so Palpatine
didn't create Anakin that means that him creating Rey means that he obviously had
to you know have some romantic relationship with someone and he didn't
just do this with someone else you know that's what it was a theory of minds
that was that maybe he just did this with somebody you know maybe he just
like went around someone and you know created a life essence in them and then
they were pregnant kind of likes me he had a son then the son obviously had a
wife and yes marriage exists in Star Wars I don't know I made that mistake I
don't know why I said it wasn't in my review loopy and a very stupid mistake
and then that person had a kid and that kid was right so that's what I'm
thinking could have happened but now that we see that this isn't the case it
leads me to think that that Palpatine actually had some sort of a romantic
relationship opting got down all right let's just let's just be clear about
that now something else that comes to mind regarding raised dad
Palpatine son and how raise you know Palpatine's granddaughter is that maybe
his son was really just his clone and he just didn't want to turn to the dark
side you know whatever he didn't want to be part of the family I guess he didn't
wanna he didn't want to follow in dear old dad's footsteps and he didn't like
you know take your son to work there kind of thing and he just wanted to do
his own thing found a wife had a child and that child was ray that could also
be another theory which is possible seeing as how I you know I would find it
hard for lucasfilm to explain that you know
Palpatine actually had like a girlfriend or something or you know that's really
where it all comes down to it's like who did Palpatine get with to be raised
grandmother it's like I don't want to know who raised grandfather is now cuz
we know I want to know who her grandmother was like who who would get
down with palps okay and so that's a theory that I have is that maybe he
cloned himself and his son is really just him who has like zero force powers
or maybe was like a defect and then ended up being running away or something
and then had rey cuz why would his son why would his son not want to be part of
him why would his son not want to be part of well i yeah I guess you know
just like Luke not wanting to be like Vader but no I guess yeah that makes
sense actually okay so is Palpatine really the one who created Anakin at the
end of the day do you think that maybe they're going to create something like
that eventually or do you think you know really this is the truth like he
definitely did not create him at all and Anakin's father is still up in the air
or maybe it's just you know really in the place book the legends book may
become canon one day it was just the force counteracting what Plagueis was
trying to do by creating this immense dark side entity and said hey no you
can't do that when i want to create the chosen one which is anakin and you know
bring balance to the force and i still believe he did bring balance to the
force i believe he did kill Sidious as for how Sidious came back well I made a
video on that but also maybe he was resurrected by his you know Sith
cultists his his his groupies kind of thing you know so there's that too and
also the cloning and force abilities and Darkseid all that let me know what you
guys think down below in the comments hope you enjoyed this video and I'll
catch you in the next one until then remember the force will be with you
always
