We are less than a month till Kenobi so I thought I would post this to prepare for it.

My hopes are listed below...⬇

1.I hope we see a broken and very depressed Obi-Wan. Obi-Wan now Ben Kenobi has seen the love of his life murdered right in front of him. His father like figure Qui-Gon murdered right in front of him. He has PTSD from the Clone Wars seeing all the death and destruction is not good for anyone especially a Jedi. And he had to kill his son/brother that he raised for a decade. Anyone who went through all of this would be broken a sad for the rest of their life. Obi-Wan can't be cheery and happy throughout it I'm fine if he chuckles a small laugh every now and then but I want that laugh to show a sad emotion like everytime he feels a small bit of happiness he is reminded of his past which saddens him. But Obi-Wan arguably has the strongest will out of any other character in Star Wars I want him to still have the tiniest bit of hope and dedication because of Luke and Leia.

I want Obi-Wan throughout most scenes to almost be like he is on the verge of crying. Most scenes it's like he needs to be comforted by someone but that someone doesn't exist which is how I want Qui-Gon to play in I want Qui-Gon to comfort Obi-Wan. I also want Obi-Wan to be angry with Qui-Gon because Qui-Gon didn't tell him the future. But he obviously forgives him.

2. I want them to solely focus the show on Ben Kenobi not Anakin/Vader or Reva or Ahsoka or Rex or Mando or Boba. No other character aside from Obi-Wan/Ben Kenobi. Sure I want to see a lot of Anakin and Vader but this show is about Obi-Wan no infiltrations like in BOBF.

3. I want Qui-Gon to strictly to be a voice. This is a controversial topic and initially I wanted Qui-Gon to appear as a Force ghost projection or to show his body but @echothree convinced me that he should be a voice instead of a full blown Force ghost projection unless there is a Force nexus nearby. Maybe Obi-Wan could travel to a planet that has a Force nexus but I don't think there should be one on Tatooine they have to be an extremely rare thing.

4. I don't want to see any real world problems or politics to come into this show. Marvel has been creating political and controversial topics in their movies for a bit now and it has become obnoxious. I don't want to see anything to do with the "problems'' of today's society. I don't even want to see Star Wars politics because SW politics have nothing to do with this show. We must remember Obi-Wan is a hermit he doesn't know anything that's going on really. Especially in the political field.

5. Don't break continuity. I am a George Lucas purest I consider everything George Lucas made to be canon even if Disney decides to break the continuity. If Qui-Gon appears and there is no Force nexus then that would be breaking continuity. I don't know about Vader vs Obi-Wan. Half of me hopes its a vision and the other half hopes its real. I feel as if this could break continuity and dissolve some of the emotion the duel between them in ANH had. 

Great art but Qui-Gon appears. Like I said maybe a Force nexus was created on Tatooine because of Anakin's birth I would be okay with that.Great art but Qui-Gon appears. Like I said maybe a Force nexus was created on Tatooine because of Anakin's birth I would be okay with that.

6.  EDIT: Obi-Wan visits Shmi's grave regularly I forgot to add this in the regular post but if we were to see Obi-Wan visiting Shmi's grave crying for failing her son it would be heartbreaking. 

But anyways I have many more hopes but I'm keeping it short today. Thanks for reading! May the Force be with you, always.
