Rise Of Skywalker Confirmed Mace Windu Is In The Jedi “Afterlife”

InRevenge of the Sith , Anakin was at long last press fully to the dark side of the Force because he had to find fault between Palpatine , who ( misleadingly ) seemed defenceless , and Mace Windu , who was attempting to assassinate Palpatine . In the end , Anakin chose to defend Palpatine , believe that Mace Windu ’s willingness to wipe out Palpatine when he was unarmed was proof that the Jedi were corrupt . Many have argue that this moment was a reflexion of Mace Windu tap into the dark side of the Forcebecause he fully intended to assassinate Palpatine ; however , The Rise of Skywalkerproved that delusive .

Mace Windu ’s blackwash attempt on Palpatine did n’t really change him or paint a picture a step toward the coloured side .

At the end ofThe Rise of Skywalker , Rey tapped into the ability of all the Jedi to finally defeat Palpatine . While that was controversial , it did confirm that Mace Windu ’s assassination attempt on Palpatine did n’t in truth change him or suggest a stair toward the dark side . Specifically , Mace Windu ’s interpreter could be heard among the Jedi inThe Rise of Skywalker , confirming that he was in the Netherworld of the Force — something a Sith can not access .

Mace Windu Was Never Truly Dominated By His Inner Darkness

Despite Mace Windu ’s willingness to pop Palpatine inRevenge of the Sith , he never truly tip into the dark side of the Force . Arguably , this was not Mace Windu ’s okay moment . Yes , Palpatine was fantastically dangerous . He was both a Sith Lord and the most powerful mortal in the Senate . Perhaps Palpatine even objectively deserved to go . However , the Jedi way is absolved ; Jedi are not say to attack ( much less kill ) unarmed opponents .

Mace Windu ’s decision did not come from angriness or even fear .

Nevertheless , Mace Windu ’s actions did not reflect a full round toward the non-white side . For one , in the terminal , Mace Windu did not kill Palpatine . In fact , he even seemed conflicted about what he was set about to do , which is quite trenchant from how a Sith would set about such a bit . More importantly , though , Mace Windu ’s determination did not come from angriness or even revere . He simply feel he had a tariff to destroy the Sith — and he was n’t incorrect . After all , that is on the button what the Chosen One prophecy is all about .

This is exactly why Mace Windu ’s voice was included inThe Rise of Skywalker . Mace Windu may have had a fleeting lapse in judgment because of the severity of the situation , but he did not desert the clear side of the Force . Rather , Star war : The upgrade of Skywalkerconfirmed that Mace Windu was among the other Jedi in the Netherworld of the Force , steadfastly on the light side .
