Star Wars Rebels Season 2 Finale Teaser: Ahsoka & Anakin

Audiences were quite familiar with Anakin Skywalker by the time Star Wars: The Clone Wars (the animated feature film, then the five season television series) premiered, having already watched his rise, fall, and redemption over the course of the first sixStar Wars films. But as The Clones Warsrevealed, there was still an important chapter of Anakin’s life left to be told – his time mentoring his Jedi padawan, Ahsoka Tano.

When The Clone Wars was canceled, fans were left guessing about what happened to Ahsoka after she left the order, as well as if and when she ever saw her old master again. Star Wars Rebels picks up the mantle of Clone Wars and, though not a direct continuation, the series includes many of the characters first introduced during Clone Wars – most notably Ahsoka, now no longer a Jedi but a leader within the growing rebellion.

Since then, Ahsoka has been on a collision course with the Sith lord, Darth Vader – her former friend and master, now twisted by hate and a villain more powerful than anyone she or her fellow Rebels have fought before. Star Wars Rebels’ one hour finale has these two coming face to face, and as the video above teases, their meeting will be all about the years of history between them.

The forthcoming meeting between Ahsoka and Darth Vader will no doubt be intense and emotional – for the characters and their fans. With so much of Ahsoka’s future unknown, and so much of Anakin’s already certain, it seems very possible Vader will cut down his former apprentice, just as he does his master only five years later.

Star Wars Rebels continues with ‘The Mystery of Chopper Base’ next Wednesday @9:30 on Disney XD. The two-part finale, ‘Twilight of the Apprentice’ airs March 30th.
