Why doesn't Anakin appear and tell his grandson that he's on the wrong path?

Why doesn't Anakin appear and tell his grandson that he's on the wrong path?

because he does what anakin wants.

Because fuck you that's why

Disney thought about doing something with him. Ultimately, it was cut for TFA.

Force ghosts dissipate within 10 years or so.

The Force had to Awaken, senpai.

Well Anakin should show up at some point, I mean it makes no sense for him to sit back while things play out. Obi-Wan's ghost was always there to help Luke

Because his Grandson's drugged up brain is to fuzzy to see beyond his own duckery.

...

it's true
all of it

but disney doesn't want to acknowledge the prequels the pricks

Pretty sure in the Timothy Zahn books it was suggested Obi-Wan's consciousness was fading and he would be moving on or snuffing out completely very soon. I can't remember exactly though.

>He thinks the books are canon

>Legends
>Canon
Cry more about your Admiral Thrawn and your Darth Revan.

The Dark Side cuts you off from Light Side ghosts.

Anakin himself did too many bad things so his ghost can't talk like Obi Wan's could

They were ghostbusted

WHY THE FUCK DO I KEEP FORGETING THAT LEIA IS DARTH DAUGHTER

Don't really give a shit about them desu. I read the Zahn trilogy when I was a kid and then the one where Chewbacca dies, which was so cringingly bad I put it down 3/4 through and never touched a SW EU novel again.

the old republic is canon

Because it was shoved in during return of the Jedi and pretty much none of the characters acknowledge it

That isn't Anakin, that's Vader. When Kylo Ren was talking to Vaders helment they were about to make Vader it's own entity, kinda like a demon that possessed Anakin...

Is it? I know Darth Bane is canon thanks to the clone wars show

That would have been shark jumping retarded. Thank fuck they didn't go through with that. I mean holy shit wow. Fucking Lucas tier fuckery.

Fuck me Vader looks dope with a hood

You mean pansy boy continues to be a big selfish baby after death? Who would guess?

I could have sworn I read something about the writers toying with the idea of Anakin wavering between the darkness and the light.

Not canon anymore, that was old EU. New canon has no limit on how long a force ghost can last however they lose their personalities overtime.

No, it's continued on the Legends banner. Check Pablo's twitter, he's stated it many times. TOR is not even close to being canon. It severely contradicts with established canon anyway.

I'm talking knights of the old republic, not the mmo

TOR is part of Knights of the Old Republic, it is also non-canon. It's part of legends and it also severely contradicts established lore.

For example,
>hyperspace too fast
>KOTOR features planets from the outterim which was not even discovered or explored yet
>The Sith Empire decimated the Jedi and Republic before dissolving into a civil war
>4,000 years in the past
>The Sith did not exist yet
>lightsabers were either crossguards or darksabers
>the aesthetics are very different: See Darth Bane from TCW and Ahsoka from Rebels
>Sith had almost medieval Chinese influence
>Jedi had Samurai vibes
>Jedi and Sith both used Superweapons with kyber crystals

>get caught being a shitpleb
>Backpedal like crazy so you won't lock as foolish as you already do.

Because the ghosts only appear to those they were close to.

That's not how the canon works

I'll decide what's canon

Revan was almost in the clone wars, that makes it canon.
Lalalalala, I can't hear you Disney!

What the hell are you talking about? TOR and KOTOR are not canon. If they were, they would have to be completely retooled for what's established in current canon.

He was almost canon but it wouldn't have made sense within the episode. Him and Bane were suppose to show up in the Mortis arc but Sith spirits manipulating a Dark Side entity didn't make much sense to Lucas and the crew.

>There are people in this known cosmic solar system who think that the force awakens is canon

That's a story for another time :^)

KYLO REN, I HATE SAND, ITS COURSE AND IT GETS EVERYWHERE, IF YOU ARE NOT WITH ME, THEN YOU ARE SAND

I HATE YOU!!!!!!!!!

No, fuck that. That would mean Ben was literally right about saying that Vader betrayed and murdered Anakin

You're right, it's not canon. But so what? Why do people care about canon so much? This isn't like the bible where deciding between what's canon and what's apocryphal literally causes wars.

It's just fucking entertainment. What, are you not allowed to enjoy KotoR or Shadows of the Empire or the Zahn novels anymore because the Star Wars EU has been relegated to Legacy status? What kind of stupid shit is that? If the stories told gave you such enjoyment, why should you care whether or not it fits into some grand scheme of things? It's fucking autism is what it is.

>user asks a question
>it gets answered
>spazz out about it

At some point I get tired of all the "it's canon so it doesn't matter" shit that people always post.

I mean yes, it not being canon means that in the main timeline, it didn't happen. But it doesn't change that it was still written.

>"it's canon so it doesn't matter" shit that people always post.

Not once is this said. user asked if TOR was canon and it was explained it was not and with reasons. Not stated EU or Legends was irrelevant. We still get EU content and nods in new canon too

>Why doesn't Anakin appear and tell his grandson that he's on the wrong path?

HACK WRITING

Doesnt say that on wookieepedia.

If Anakin was a force ghost he probably wouldn't be the nicest guy. He spent more than half of his life as a murder cyborg fueled by hate, even if he did flip at the end.

Are you an idiot?

>Force ghosts dissipate within 10 years or so.

NOT CANON

Anakin was chillin with Yoda and Obi Wan last time we saw him as a force ghost, so i assume he wasn't that bad

Especially since it's pretty much confirmed Yoda will appear in Ep.8 as a force ghost

It originally started with

He was obviously shitposting. An user thought TOR was canon because a lot of people assume it is because it still releases content.

>IF YOU ARE NOT WITH ME, THEN YOU ARE SAND

kek'd

hey you're right this was the best idea ignored in VII the idea of him talking to vaders demon is incredible to me and I was furious when they didn't show it in the movie
>SHOW ME AGAIN the power of the darkness

I mean come on he obviously was communicating with a sith demon of vaders

Because it defeats the point of Vader turning back to the light at the end of RotJ

That's the next movie.
>or the one after

>Why doesn't God appear and tell humanity that Christianity is the true path?
