• “Anakin Skywalker was weak. I destroyed him.” – says Darth Vader to Ahsoka Tano in Star Wars Rebels.
• Ben Kenobi about Vader: “He betrayed and murdered your father,” in Episode IV: A New Hope. It seems Obi-Wan accepted the fact, that Vader is Anakin no longer a long time ago.
• “That name no longer has any meaning for me,” says Vader to Luke about the name ‘Anakin’ in Episode VI: Return of the Jedi. Vader confirms he no longer believes there is any part of Anakin left in him.
• There is a parallel between the lines “Then my friend is truly dead.” and “Then my father is truly dead.” – says Luke to Darth Vader in Episode VI: Return of the Jedi.
• Obi-Wan calling Vader as “Darth” is a nod to the original trilogy, where Alec Guinness’ Obi-Wan calls Darth Vader “Darth“, using it as his first name. (Episode IV: A New Hope)

The way that Obi-Wan says “I’m sorry” is just heart-wrenching. Serious props to McGregor.

The details in this scene (/last episode) saved the series. The way the blue light is on Anakin’s face then red when Vader returns… Incredible.
