Why Did Anakin 'Hate' Obi Wan?

I love the line 'I Hate You!' But I dont understand why he did, what did Obi Wan do to Anakin? Anakin went to the darkside to save Padme, and he was pissed at the council. But Obi Wan comforted him when he was mad, and tried to stay on his side. So I dont understand all the anger towards him.

 

Cause he sliced off his arm and legs.

 

First he thought that Obi-Wan didn't trust him, then thought Obi-Wan turned Padmè against him, and lastly he left Anakin with only one limb left burning on very hot sand. That'll do it if you ask me.

 

Keeper is right. From Anakin's perspective, Obi-Wan looked like a really bad guy. Obviously that's not the case, but since Anakin is consumed by anger and all that, he just can't help but view everyone as his enemy.

 

When really he is his own enemy

 

How ignorant Anakin seems to be all the time. Obi-Wan warned him not to jump, but he did it anyway. One slice did all that, boy that's unfortunate.

 

I believe the reason he hated Obi-Wan was because he thought he turned Padme against him, and that he was holding him back from saving his mother in AOTC. I also think that he believes the he was not giving him the proper respect as a jedi that he felt he deserves.

 

He had always had a love/hate relationship with Obi-Wan. Eventually the hate side of it won out.

Anakin-and Vader-was always obsessed with Obi-Wan. Look at AOTC. Everything that happens, he relates it back to Obi-Wan in someway. He blames him for "turning her against me" in ROTS. He never stops talking about him in the OT, either.

 

because he sank his battleship

 

Ummmmmm.... Wouldn't you hate somebody to if they cut you in half, cut your left arm off, and left u on a volcanic planet to burn and suffer. Yeah Obi-Wan pretty much ruined Anakin/Vader's life with one slice of his lightsaber. Anakin/Vader is just lying there burning up, losing everything, face, body, everything you can possibly imagine.........

 

So he only hated him after the duel?

 

Pretty much, but he's had his "I hate Obi-Wan" moments in the previous films. Like someone said above, it's a love/hate relationship and it always has been. In AotC we see that they've really bonded with one another since TPM, but that they're friendship has its flaws. The same goes for RotS, only in this film, we see they're friendship start to deteriorate because Anakin's being brainwashed by Palpatine into thinking that the Jedi are evil, including Obi-Wan.

Mustafar is when all his conflict and hate for Obi-Wan that he's dealt with over the years really comes out in full force.

 

Yep. In that respect, he never quite grows up. He's like a rebellious teenager blaming his dad for everything. "My dad won't let me go to the party, and he won't let me take the car... man, he's always on my case!"

In another respect, though, I can understand why he hates Obi-Wan throughout the OT. Obi-Wan was the cause of his injuries, and every time Vader's in pain (which is probably most of the time), it's another reminder of what Obi-Wan did to him.

 

Anakin answers this question for you. Go watch the movie again before they fight

 

Anakin does not "hate" Obi-Wan. Look at the sadness in his eyes as he is crawling, helpless. It is only after Obi turns away that he says "I HATE YOU!". I believe Anakin merely uses obi-wan as a scapegoat for all of his own failings, and I do not believe he hates obi.

He doesn't really hate him, but he says it out of anger and frustration.

 

There have been some good responses to this topic...all of which I agree with...so I won't re-utter them.

 

I thought Anakin hated ObiWan because of his affair with Padme?

 

^Nope its was Jar Jar who she was havin the affair with.

He was overly critacle, he didn't understand. He was holding him back and he never listened.

 

And it wasn't FAIR!

 

I agree. Anakin now sees Obi-Wan as a reflection of all he has given up by turning to the darkside and is reacting out of his sense of loss.

 

If I cut your arm and legs off, you'd look sad and mad at the same time. He hated Obi-wan, which is why his eyes turned yellow again. They represent the hate flowing through him.

 

I think when Anakin said "I hate you!!" to Obi Wan in the end is the saddest part in the movie. He hated Obi Wan first off because he just cut off the rest of his limbs. I also think that maybe he was thinking that if he survive, he wont be as powerful as he wouldve been. He wanted to throw Palpatine and rule the galaxy himself,so Obi Wan practically took that away from him.

Thanks to darth_sinister for replying to my question on my previous post.

 

Í donät see why the luimvb cutting would lead Anakin to say that. They were locked in moratal combat. What was Obi Wan supposed to do, let Ani win??? Furthermore, Obi Wan had just issued a pretty detailed warning to Anakin that if he made that jump from the platform, it was over. And of course Anakin ignored that and proceeded to make a fool of himself and a hacked up mess.

As for Padme turning on Anakin, I also don't buy Anakin thinking Obi Wan did this. Padme did not know that Anakin was a Sith, assaulting the temple, etc. Once she finds out he did this, why would she not confront him?

I wish these issues were explored deeper. But I do love the line though. And the delivery. Great stuff.

 

Yeah, but is it really hate he's feeling toward Obi-Wan? Or is it that he's holding so hard onto the emotion of hate, because if he doesn't, he'll feel all that physical and emotional pain? He thinks he hates Obi-Wan because that's an easy emotion in the dark side, but deep down I don't think he wanted to kill him in that fight. And after he's injured you can see in his eyes that he has a moment of understanding, where he realizes what he's done to himself. In the original script he actually even asked Obi-Wan for help.

 

Why Did Anakin 'Hate' Obi Wan?
projection... he hated himself and needed someone to blame for all his short-comings.
