Audiences first saw the killing of the Jedi in 2005's "Star Wars: Episode III — Revenge of the Sith" when the Clone army fighting alongside the Jedi turned against their former allies.

The first episode of "Obi-Wan Kenobi" shows that Obi-Wan is the person who originally gave that toy to a young Luke.

The pair of droids have appeared in most of the "Star Wars" projects including the first "Star Wars" movie, "A New Hope" where Leia (Fisher) entrusts them with a special mission to find Obi-Wan.

The audience discovers that he has hidden it in a box on the planet Tatooine alongside Anakin's former lightsaber, which Obi-Wan took at the end of "Revenge of the Sith.".

Rex was a clone who fought with both Anakin and Obi-Wan during the Clone Wars — a war between the Republic, who were protected by the Jedi, and the Separatists, who worked with the Sith Lord Count Dooku.

Later, during their fight, there is another callback as Darth Vader throws Obi-Wan into flames, similar to how Obi-Wan left him to die in the lava at the end of "Revenge of the Sith.".

First, Obi-Wan uses the same airbreather device that was used in the 1999 prequel movie "Star Wars: Episode I — The Phantom Menace" in order to get into the lair underwater. .

Then during their escape, there's yet another callback when they use the same T-47 speeders from "Star Wars: Episode V — Empire Strikes Back" (1980) to fly away.

In episode four, Obi-Wan discovers that the Inquisitors have created a tomb for the bodies of every Jedi that has been killed.

Fans have pointed out that the fight between the two characters in the flashback scene in episode five directly mirrors the final battle on Mustafar in "Revenge of the Sith." This highlights how Anakin's turn to the dark side was inevitable.

In the following episode, Obi-Wan also uses the Soresu Lightsaber stance at the beginning of the fight with Vader.

This stance was first shown in "Revenge of the Sith" in Obi-Wan's duel against Separatist General Grievous, however, it later became a consistent theme in Obi-Wan's appearances in both "The Clone Wars" and "Rebels."

After Obi-Wan defeats Vader in the last episode by cutting his mask and breathing equipment, the two characters have a heart-to-heart

The lighting emphasizes that there is still some good in Vader as shown by his turn in "Star Wars: Episode VI — Return of the Jedi" (1983)
