Dont really go here and a tad mean perhaps but it is so weird to me that tons of people are like "Oh darn I was such a fan I'm so surprised he was like this" about that youtuber guy who got demolished for being a plagiarist and basically phobic to anyone that isnt a cishet gay man.
Cause like every time someone brings up the content of the break down of his bullshit and gives more examples in and left out of that video, it's like really apparent shit and language he used to be phobic to gay and trans women especially like... y'all liked this shit without really engaging or thinking critically about the fact that this guy repeatedly was beaming very clearly phobic and misogynistic language and content right into your ears and eyeballs??

What really stood out to me the most this time around was how Anakin was portrayed. I doubt this is what they were really going for, but I choose to believe that even in death he pretends the Clone Wars is still happening. He was a war hero, he was happy, despite the horrors happening around him. It's like he is happy to let the galaxy suffer if it means he can live in the past. He ignores what he became, and failed to recognize his mistakes.
His death in ROTJ and murder of Palpatine (ignoring what the sequels say) isn't what redeems him. Changing his ways and committing to a better mindset would help him become better. But, even in death, he romanticizes his 'glory days' and forces Ahsoka to relive it.
If you view the environment as Anakin's creation then the fogginess of it could imply he doesn't even consider the others around him, the whole world is focused on him in his eyes.
Of course at the end of that sequence it's implied it was a test and Anakin was just joshing around. But I like the idea that hes still the same insecure little egomaniac that he was in life. It's an interesting way to view him.

open eyes. greeting by the dark ceiling again. get dressed. typical routine for him… nothing new. nothing interesting. papyrus will knock on the door soon. he should probably prepare for that. no need to stay in bed. that won't do anything anyways. he’ll still feel nothing. like normal, he knocks after the jacket is put on. and he opens that door, to be greeted with the enthusiastic, smiling face of his brother.
sans smiles. obviously, he has to. otherwise paps will get worried, and he doesn't wanna have to deal with a worried paps. it just makes things worse for everyone. they walk through the forest, paps leads him to the guard station, and he sits. same as usual… the exact same. the same routine, nothing new. nothing new. the same. it's all the same.
sans had long since gotten tired of this monotony. soon, chara would come out of that door. he’d introduce himself to them, and they’d play that short game of pretend where they pretended not to know each other. like they always did. chara mentioned something about it being scripted or something, but sans couldn't be bothered to care. besides, the human always mumbled random stuff like that. it meant nothing. nothing new. they’d kill the rest of the underground, he’d fight them because he has nothing better to do, and die.
although they did mention that deal they’d been talking about? what was that? join them? yeah, no. he wasn't gonna do that. no matter how many resets passed.
oh. here they come. better get on track. or onto script, like chara says. for some reason, they say that. the saying gets stuck a bit in sans’s head. just a bit though, since it’s a new thought. and they turn, and sans shakes hands with chara.
he’s long since ditched the whoopee cushion. despite them still doing what was practically a ritual at this point, that was the only change that ever happened. nice that he chose for the newness, but it didn't change much. but… something was off. something was wrong. and sans could feel it. he could feel it. and that was what was wrong.
it wasn't with the way chara smiled, or their posture, or how their hand was outstretched. not the strange, expectant excitement in their red eyes, although that was a bit new. it wasn't even all of the dust covering them, certainly from the ruins. no, the issue was from sans himself. he could feel something wrong. like some sort of internal dread? no, something worse… an ache? he’d gotten used to all the one’s he normally felt, so what was it?
once the human’s hand left his and walked through the gate, he knew what it was. something… that something he could feel. that something that passed through the barrier of apathy he’d built all this time. an itch? sans scratched at his head, just idly. physical or not, he didn't know. he had to figure it out. and so, he followed after the human.
after a while of watching them, chara, do their… usual business, sans had came to a conclusion. it was both. and also, neither. the itch was something that he could feel, but not physically. so it was a mental itch. and that itch managed to effect him so badly he felt it on his bones. strange. and for some reason, as he watched chara slaughter one after another, kill and murder another one of his kin, sans couldn't wrench his eye lights away from the sight. for some reason, he couldn't stop watching as chara singly handledly destroyed his species. for some reason, he followed.
"it's not that bad, anyways. just… morbid curiosity. it wouldn't hurt to just… scratch that itch a bit. nothing will come of it."
and sans made sure to say that one out loud, just to convince himself.
