The Jedi Order is one of the most recognizable parts of Star Wars. First introduced in Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope, the Order stood for over a thousand generations to protect the galaxy from many different threats that emerged. But the Jedi were not without flaws, as the Jedi Council became rigid and inflexible. This resulted in their destruction at the hands of Palpatine when he ushered in his new Empire.Of course that didn’t mean the end of the Jedi. Not only did several of them manage to survive Order 66, like Obi-Wan Kenobi or Yoda, but new Jedi sprang up throughout the galaxy, a result of the Force manifesting itself in living beings. Fans have observed several differences between the Jedi before Order 66 and the Jedi that came after, they were still grouped under the name of Jedi. But Episode 6 of Ahsoka gives a name to the new generation of Jedi, with Baylan Skoll calling them Bokken Jedi.Bokken Jedi is the name given to the people who became Jedi after Order 66 was enacted and largely had to train themselves in the wilderness. The new category helps to put a dividing line between those that existed as Jedi before Order 66, and those that came after. This classification helps audiences to think about the Jedi even more like history, with different names being given to the different periods. It’s another way that Star Wars is taking inspiration from the real world to help flesh out its world. The word Bokken also comes from the real world, as it’s Japanese for a wooden stick used in kenjutsu training, and looks like a katana. Unsurprisingly, Bokken was chosen to characterize the Jedi, as Star Wars often draws on Japanese culture to develop the Order.RELATED: Ahsoka Episode 6 Introduces a New Breed of [SPOILER] With Ties to The Rise of SkywalkerRELATED: Star Wars Television Keeps Neglecting Anakin’s Heroic Legacy
