In a side-splitting video titled "Anakin Auditions for the Jedi Council," a humorous take on the iconic Star Wars character Anakin Skywalker is presented. This video has become a sensation on Reddit, capturing the attention of both Star Wars enthusiasts and fans of internet parodies alike.

The video opens with Anakin Skywalker, voiced with a certain dramatic flair, addressing Master Yoda. Anakin poses the question, "But Master Yoda, if I'm not ready to be a master, would I be able to do this?" What follows is a comedic sequence that has viewers laughing out loud.

One of the viewers commented, "I chuckled at this," highlighting the amusing nature of the video. Another user noted, "Seems to be inspired by the afro ninja," referencing the famous Afro Ninja video known for its hilariously failed backflip.

For those unfamiliar with the Afro Ninja reference, it’s a classic internet video where a martial artist attempts a backflip, only to faceplant spectacularly. This has led to numerous parodies and memes over the years.

The comedic genius behind this parody has not gone unnoticed. Comments such as "You're a genius" and "👏" reflect the appreciation from the Reddit community. The video also evoked nostalgic memories for some viewers. One user reminisced, "The squigglevision lines and the Flash animation quality really took me back to mid-2000s Newgrounds," referring to the popular animation style and platform from that era.

Other reactions ranged from utter confusion to outright laughter. A comment like "daf** happened to Anakin?" shows how surprising the video can be, while "I laughed so loud all the people on the train think I'm a weirdo! Oh, the good ol' Afro Ninja gem!" captures the sheer joy and nostalgia the video brings.

The video also humorously suggests an alternative origin story for Anakin Skywalker's transformation into Darth Vader, prompting a viewer to quip, "Wow, that's how he became Darth Vader? I didn't know that."

This parody video is a delightful blend of Star Wars lore and classic internet humor, making it a must-see for fans of both genres. Don't miss out on this whimsical take on Anakin's journey to becoming a Jedi Master, and be prepared to laugh out loud!
