Whoever writes stuff on tvtropes for SW content is dumb (no surprise there)
On the ymmv page for Obi-Wan Kenobi, under "franchise original sin" it calls into question Reva being able to survive a lightsaber stab through anger, despite also acknowledging that Maul survives a similar wound (actually what he survives is worse), because she doesn't "have the requisite training"
I'm gonna have to say it aren't I?
Surviving a stab wound (something normal real world people can survive, seriously spend some time looking up incredible injury survival) is not something you need "training" for
What you need is anger, that's it
Anakin didn't have "training" (because he'd only been a sith for a day at best) yet he survived his immolation, because he was angry enough
And Reva certainly had the anger
Anger at herself, anger at Vader, anger at Obi-Wan, and thanks to the communicator with the message from Bail about Luke, she had an outlet
Not to mention the fact that Kenobi previously set a lightsaber stab up as a survivable injury
How?
The grand inquisitor
By stabbing a character who we know survives (and also he shows up to mock Reva just after Vader stabs her), Kenobi foreshadows that Reva could survive a similar wound (plus as we see from the flashback in the same episode, Reva herself has already survived a similar wound once)
But of course that just went over people's heads
Instead of the reaching the logical and simple conclusion of "character who appears and dies later in the timeline will survive" people jumped to "zombie!" "clone!" some bulllshit universe breaking resurrection etc

Love how Anakin and Obi-wan broke up and made it the entire galaxy’s problem
Obsessed with the way vader literally RIPPED that first ship out of the air with the force, and then when the second one took off right behind it he just ??

“What have you become?”
Obi-Wan literally. Quoted himself. And actually threw out. "I will do what I must."
And then Vader. Literally. Tells Obi-Wan. "Then you will die." When he says. The same exact thing. To Ahsoka. About five years later.
FOLKS.
I AM NOT OKAY.
also thinking about the tragedy that is the way anakin, buried under years of vader, is still just a child seeking approval and respect.
by the time we reach anh, vader hasn’t (visibly) thought about obi wan in years. why, when he was so utterly obsessed just nine years prior?
because all anakin has ever wanted was to be respected, his actions and especially his character approved of. and the second the emperor questions his ability, his worth, due to his obsession with obi wan, anakin simply drops it. just like that. because palpatine is threatening to withdraw his respect and approval and vader, anakin, will do anything to keep it.
palpatine saw anakin’s weak spot, the one thing he wasn’t getting enough of from the jedi, and he exploited it from day one. and anakin never stood a chance. because at the end of the day, he’s still just a 9 year old boy wanting to be treated like someone with value and worth.
