Star Wars: 10 Best Scenes Featuring Anakin Skywalker & Ahsoka Tano

The Star Wars franchise has a collection of incredible friendships, from Han and Chewie to Anakin and Obi-Wan, but one of the very best, arguably the best in terms of Star Wars television, is that between Anakin Skywalker and Ahsoka Tano. It is an amazing brother-sister dynamic, and their story is both fantastic to follow and emotional in its end.

Both Anakin Skywalker and Darth Vader share the screen with Ahsoka throughout The Clone Wars and Rebels, and the majority of the time it happens, it is magic, with the two sharing so many brilliant and memorable scenes together.

10 Anakin/Vader Senses Ahsoka & Vice-Versa

A moment that pops up twice involving these two is their sensing of one another, exactly like how Vader and Luke sensed each other as the rebels infiltrated the Forest Moon of Endor.

The first, and more powerful, came in Rebels, as while Vader was flying his ship and expertly picking apart Phoenix Squadron, Ahsoka senses his presence and Vader senses hers, exclaiming that "the Apprentice lives." The second came in the final Clone Wars season as, when Trace accidentally flies into Republic military fly lanes, Anakin senses Ahsoka is on the ship, and Ahsoka feels her Master also.

9 Friendly Competition

The Second Battle of Geonosis arc is one of the best of the early seasons of The Clone Wars and had some fantastic Ahsoka content, not the least of which includes introducing her to Barriss Offee, a crucial character in her overall story.

The arc has two standout Anakin and Ahsoka scenes, the first being Anakin's faith in his Padawan when she and Barriss are trapped under a mountain of rubble. The best is the banter between the two as they defeat Separatists, keeping count as a friendly competition with one another. It highlights the brother/sister dynamic of the two early on.

8 Ahsoka Brought Back To Life

The Mortis arc has, thus far, been one of the biggest, best, and most creative explorations into the Force on-screen, and shockingly it kills Ahsoka Tano at the end after the Son corrupted her with the dark side.

The fight between Ahsoka and Anakin and Obi-Wan is fantastic, but the better moment of the relationship is Anakin's plea for the Father to do something to bring Ahsoka back. With Anakin as a conduit, the Daughter's energy is used to revive Ahsoka, who thankfully survived the whole ordeal.

7 Anakin Accepts Ahsoka

The scene where fans meet Ahsoka in the 2008 Clone Wars movie is, in hindsight, a great scene to watch, especially with Anakin's shock and unhappiness with getting given an apprentice.

However, no matter what criticisms the movie gets for its quality, it provides fans with one of the most touching scenes between these friends, as Anakin tells Ahsoka he believes she could make it as his apprentice, reassuring her about herself and her abilities.

6 Anakin & Ahsoka Talk With Ahsoka On The Run

Fast forward to season 5 of the show, and the two are firmly the best of friends, but Ahsoka is now forced on the run after being framed for having a role in bombing the temple and in murder.

While running away from Republic troops on Coruscant, Anakin catches up with Ahsoka, and the two have an emotional conversation in which Anakin pleads with her to return and fight for her innocence with Ahsoka knowing nobody will believe her. She leaves her Master, who continues to look for and help her. It is a wonderfully done, sorrowful scene.

5 Reunited After Trandoshans capture Ahsoka

"Padawan Lost" sees Ahsoka have to fend for herself as she is captured by Trandoshans, used as prey in the sport of hunting, and meeting other Padawans as well as Chewbacca during her survival.

With the help of the Wookiees, Ahsoka managed to escape, and her reunion with Anakin is a fantastic moment of relief. Anakin apologizes for not being there for her, even though Ahsoka proved herself to be very capable on her own. The look Yoda gives the two as they walk away happy in conversation is very telling.

4 Ahsoka Learns The Truth

Moving back over to Star Wars: Rebels when Anakin was no more and Darth Vader had taken over Ahsoka's old Master, "Shroud of Darkness" was an immense episode that provided Ahsoka with the answers she needed.

While in the Jedi Temple, the vision of Anakin Skywalker comes to and berates Ahsoka for leaving him, asking her if she knows who he has become. Ahsoka, tearfully, is forced to face the truth that Anakin Skywalker is now Darth Vader, a heartbreaking watch for fans.

3 Reunited In Season 7

After her departure from the Jedi Order and her adventure with the Martez sisters, Bo-Katan asks Ahsoka for help in retaking Mandalore from Maul, and in turn, they go to the Jedi for help.

This reunites Ahsoka and Anakin after quite a long time. Anakin is far happier to see Ahsoka initially, but the reunion is beautiful nonetheless, with Rex and the 332nd company having their Ahsoka helmets and Anakin giving Ahsoka her new lightsabers.

2 Ahsoka Leaves The Jedi Order

Speaking of Ahsoka leaving the Jedi Order, after the whole ordeal of her getting framed, Ahsoka is cast out of the Jedi Order and almost executed by the Republic, but saved by Anakin.

Once Anakin discovers and reveals the truth, the Jedi Council attempt to bring Ahsoka back on board, which she rejects. The conversation between Anakin and Ahsoka, where she gives him her braid, says she knows he wants to leave the Order sometimes, and that she needs to figure things out without him is one of the most painful moments in all of The Clone Wars.

1 "Ahsoka."

Speaking of heartbreaking moments involving these two characters, not only the most emotional, but the best scene centering around the two is their duel on Malachor in "Twilight of the Apprentice."

The duel itself is phenomenal, but it is the dialogue that is special between the two. Anakin's eye appearing as Matt Lanter's voice says "Ahsoka." is painful, Ahsoka saying she won't leave him "not this time" is tear-inducing, Ahsoka's declaration of "I'm no Jedi" is badass, and Vader's "then you will die." is genuinely chilling, It is heartbreaking seeing how far Anakin has fallen, and how clearly crushed Ahsoka is at the state of her former brother and Master.
