Could someone provide me the distinctions and the similarities of Obi Wan and Kakashi other than those 2 being mentor like figures?
Outside of mentors:
- Both of them have served in majors wars/battles/conflicts of their respective universes
- Both are distinguished in those services
- Both are powerful members of their respective groups while not being the absolute strongest
- Both are known for their intelligence, tactics and methodical ways of combat
- Both have been training since childhood
- Both of them have died (though Kakashi got better)
- Both can manipulate minds in various ways
- Both wield energy weapons (Kakashi's Raikiri is basically a fist full of lightning and Kenobi's lightsaber is a plasma blade)
- Both have fought long lived fighters who have weird physiology and are nigh-immortal (Kakuzu/Hidan for Kakashi and Durge for Kenobi)
- Both have experienced major losses of loved ones (Rin, Obitio, Minato, Sakumo for Kakashi. Satine, Siri, Qui-Gon and Anakin's betrayl/fall for Kenobi)
- Both know how to wield swords (Lightsaber for Kenobi. Kakashi used a tanto in his younger days and can use Zabuza's sword)
Wow, there's actaully quite a bit here.
