With so many Jedi populating the galaxy during the heyday of the Republic, the coincidental repetition or similarity between multiple hilts’ designs wouldn’t be too far out of the question.ĭespite these discrepancies in continuity, the Grievous that appears in the 2017 Star Wars Battlefront II video game retains the “incorrect” look found in Revenge of the Sith. Really one would be hard pressed to distinguish between Shaak Ti, Ki-Adi-Mundi and Adi Gallia’s hilts from up close, let alone afar. Though younglings are required to build their own lightsabers during their initiation training, with a few exceptions, many handles end up looking fairly similar to one another, just with different colored blades. Other fans theorize that these hilts are, simply, popular designs within the Jedi religion. Alternatively, they could be fun little Easter eggs Anakin’s lightsaber is eventually passed on to his son Luke, who later takes up a self-built green alternative, possibly being referenced here. Given just how many discontinuities can be found in this scene alone, these errors could be chalked up to mistakes or plain, justifiable ignorance on the CGI artists’ parts.

Oddly, the blade emanating from Anakin’s hilt is green during Grievous’ duel with Obi-Wan, only to sporadically switch to its natural blue throughout the sequence. The same goes for Ki-Adi-Mundi’s lightsaber. Given the two keep their lightsabers with them on through to their battle at the film’s close, this lapse in continuity is particularly grievous. While he did disarm the two Jedi during the opening of Revenge of the Sith, Anakin and Obi-Wan were just as quick to Force Pull them back before making their escape to Coruscant. Two completely impossible designs also rear their heads during Obi-Wan’s fight with Grievous: Anakin and his teacher’s iconic lightsabers. Given these lightsabers belonged to lesser-known Jedi, it would be easy to miss these nitpicky incongruities, especially by the CGI artists who likely didn’t know or have access to assets of every different hilt belonging to every obscure Jedi in the galaxy. Another comes from Adi Gallia, who was indeed bested by Grievous but managed to eventually recover her weapon (though this takes place during the retconned Clone Wars animated series, which didn’t premiere until three years after Revenge of the Sith). One such sword belongs to Ki-Adi-Mundi, who keeps his blue saber until he is killed later during Order 66 despite being disarmed during the (now uncanonical) Clone Wars micro-series.

According to the 2010 edition of Star Wars: Lightsabers: A Guide to Weapons of the Force, these weapons previously belonged to the Jedi Pablo-Jill, Adi Gallia, Roron Corobb and Shaak Ti. During his final confrontation with Obi-Wan Kenobi in Revenge of the Sith, Grievous brandishes two green and two blue blades from his collection of trophies. Throughout the Clone Wars, the four-handed cyborg assassin became infamous for claiming the lightsabers of the Jedi he defeated. However, there's one such potential error regarding General Grevious' lightsabers in Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith that's the subject of some contention and debate amongst fans of the galaxy far, far away.
