"'He's alive Obi-Wan, Anakin Skywalker is alive' WHEN I TELL YOU I SCREAMED PLEASEEEEEE" said this viewer.
"Obi-Wan finding out that Anakin is alive is my villain origin story. You can tell he's so relieved, yet so distressed about this news," thinks someone else.
"Obi-Wan's horrified reaction to discovering Anakin has been alive all this time then cutting to unmasked Vader I'm feeling dizzy," says another tweeter, referring to the dramatic ending of episode 2, which has the internet in a frenzy.
"Absolute terror in his eyes after Reva tells him Anakin lived," notes another person.
