This Phantom Menace Jedi Scene Seems REALLY Strange After The Acolyte Episode 7

The Acolyte Episode 7 shows new information about Jedi mission on Brendok.The Jedi were seeking a Force vergence, which they believed created Osha and Mae.I am talking about a scene in Star Wars: Episode I , The Phantom Menace , which  became much more confusing after The Acolyte episode 7. 

The Acolyte is set 100 years before The Phantom Menace in the Star Wars timeline.The show will likely have a major impact not only on all Star Wars movies and TV shows, but especially on the prequel trilogy. This certainly proved to be true, as The Acolyte set the stage for The Phantom Menace and called into question some aspects of the prequel.

Most notably, in Episode 7, the Acolytes finally confirmed what really happened at Brandoc, and with that came a series of revelations. In fact, episode 7 of The Acolyte revealed shocking new details about May and Oshie origins. One of these details in particular made a key scene in The Phantom Menace suddenly unintelligible.

In Episode 7, The Acolyte, four Jedi stationed on Brandok (Indara, Kelnakka, Sol, and Torbin) are actively pursuing Force Convergence. It refers to the concentration of force on a place, object, or person. And it has the ability to create life. Presumably sent by the Jedi Council itself, this mission is so important that Master Saul says that nothing is more important to the Jedi than identifying such similarities. This is why the Jedi react so strongly to Oshu and Mei.

The Jedi are suspicious that Mae and Osha may either be or have been born from a vergence in the Force.

Since the twins were apparently born without a father on a planet thought to be lifeless, the Jedi suspect that May and Osha may have been born, or may have been, as a result of the convergence of the Force. This is reinforced later in episode 7 when the Jedi discover that May and Oshie symbiotes are identical to each other. In light of this, Master Indara concludes that the Twins must actually be one consciousness divided into two bodies, and Master Sol believes that only the convergence of the Force can create this power.

After this discovery, Tobin took action, believing that the possibility of Force convergence was significant enough that the Jedi Order could finally bring them back to Coruscant. While this had devastating consequences in The Acolyte (including the death of the entire Coven), it also had interesting consequences in The Phantom Menace. Specifically, if Force convergence was so important, why did the Jedi reject Anakin in the first place?

Why Didn't The Jedi Automatically Recruit Anakin As A Vergence:

In Episode 7, The Acolyte, Saul asserts that identifying, exploring, and defending the boundaries of the Force are the Jedi's highest priorities. He may have exaggerated its importance, or perhaps he was specifically told about this by the Jedi Council before sending him on this mission. Given these priorities, it doesn't make sense that The Phantom Menace's Jedi Council wouldn't rush to recruit Anakin.

Qui-Gon Jinn identified Anakin as a member of the Force, and judging by Master Sol's statements, this should have immediately piqued the Jedi interest in Anakin. Instead, they rejected him. This raises serious questions about what happened between The Acolyte and The Phantom Menace, causing the Jedi to suddenly give up on sending out the Jedi just to find similarities and abandon the boy who seemed to be a version of himself. 

Of course, some might argue that this is an oversight or even a rethinking of The Acolyte. But considering Osha seemingly dark trajectory and the series still lingering unresolved questions, the truth may be much more sinister.

The upcoming final episode of The Acolyte may reveal why the Jedi from Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace,aren't ready to accept Anakin as a member of the Force.
