>>124551642>George Lucas insisted Ahsoka should dieDuring the early days of production, when she was not really her own character, and was just Anakin's sidekick. She was originally going to return to the Order, and die somewhere offscreen in RotS, but Lucas changed his mind(for the better), and the final arc actually had consequences, and changed the status quo, and allowed for great character development. And Lucas himself wrote lines for Anakin/Ahsoka final exchange, and put them outside of the temple, alone.
She was never going to die in TCW show, because it would have made no sense at all. Anakin would have mentioned his dead Padawan, considering how close he had become to her. But her leaving him played on his resentment towards the Council, it also played on his own personal failure, that after everything he had done, after trying to convince her with all his heart - it wasn't enough, and he failed to keep her, and he in his selfishness viewed it as her being somewhat a failure, failing him(Utapau arc), he always blames everyone else, so it makes much more sense for him not to mention her otherwise.
>did you watch Revenge of the Sith?Did you? A bunch of redshirts died, who had no development in the movies, and Padme died in Obi-Wan's care, giving birth to Luke and Leia, and the film ended on a hopeful, upbeat note, with the Force theme playing. And Lucas himself said he specifically ended it on a hopeful note.
>the fact that death cannot be undoneShe never died in the first place.
>save KananNo, you can't. Closed loop. Ezra wouldn't have been there in the first place, had Kanan been saved. We would have seen it. Everything that happened on screen happened, it is set in stone, and cannot be changed. Ahsoka never died.
Ezra did not know the purpose of this place, and he saved Ahsoka by acting purely on instinct, which is different from Kanan, who had actually died, but Ezra never let go of him in the first place, and wanted to actually undo his death.
