Warning: Major spoilers ahead for Obi-Wan Kenobi episode 3! Turn back now if you haven't seen the latest episode on Disney Plus!
Obi-Wan Kenobi episode 3 has the internet losing it over a major moment that's been a long time coming.
After episode 2 ended with a Darth Vader tease that sent the internet wild, the most recent installment set the Sith Lord loose.
Darth Vader and Obi-Wan Kenobi finally come face to face once more, and clash lightsabers in a duel that ends with the Jedi Master badly hurt, but rescued at the last minute.
"This entire sequence had me gasping. HELP I CAN'T BREATHE. This was so masterfully done, I could feel the sheer terror of Vader and the hate Anakin bears towards Kenobi. I could feel the disbelief and the pain of Obi-Wan," is one person's response to the episode.
"No but when Darth Vader drew his lightsaber I jumped outta my skin. Absolute chills," says this stunned fan.
"I can confidently say that this is the most terrified I've ever been of Vader. Like holy shit," is another person's reaction to Vader's deadly rampage through the village.
Another person agrees: "I did not expect Kenobi to face off against Vader so soon, but it was def done right. This is the most terrifying version of Vader we've ever gotten."
Other people are very excited indeed: "VADER IS BACK! THE Darth Vader!!! Hayden Christensen & James Earl Jones!! Absolute goosebumps! This will be a day long remembered!"
"THE MAN THE MYTH THE LEGEND DARTH VADER IS HEREEEE" says another person.
"THIS IS PEAK STAR WARS. I CAN'T BELIEVE I JUST WITNESSED THAT," enthuses someone else.
This person wants a Vader spin-off after seeing the Sith Lord back in action: "I NEED AN R RATED VADER FILM RIGHT FUCKING NOW."
"Vader truly is the greatest villain ever," thinks another tweeter.
Another person notes that Vader let Obi-Wan go at the end of their fight: "Very important moment of realization for us all: Darth Vader actually saw the droid taking Obi-Wan away. ANAKIN saw that. And we all well know how he could have destroyed him in the blink of an eye. Yet, he didn't. He just turned away."
It's likely that Obi-Wan and Vader will be meeting again before the series ends, with that "rematch of the century" still looming on the horizon.
