When under the care of Qui-Gon Jinn, young Anakin comes to the elders, the request for his further training to control the force is rejected precisely at the initiative of Yoda, who feels that the future of the Tatooine driver is foggy. However, after Qui-Gon’s death, Obi-Wan assumes responsibility for raising the boy and declares to the Council his firm intention to take him into his Padawans. Thus, Skywalker manages to pass the title of Junling and immediately become Padawan. And this time, Yoda is no longer able to refuse Kenobi, but, as is well known, a fine instinct will fail the wizard later.

"The Empire Strikes Back"
It's about the second part of the saga, since the firstThe film of the old trilogy became the only one where Yoda does not appear. "Star Wars" (photo from the film is presented below) were shot in 1977, so the creation of the picture was difficult due to the lack of necessary technology. Due to the impossibility of large-scale use of computer graphics, Yoda appeared before the audience in a puppet variation. Some of the fans prefer this, the old and slightly insane, version of the character. It is known that for 22 years he did not leave the abandoned planet of Dagobah, as a result of which he was a little insane. When Luke Skywalker comes to him, it becomes clear that the Master has retained his wisdom and skills, and only his behavior and way of life has suffered.

He tells the Jedi that training is no longer necessary, and now it remains to meet his father face to face, and he himself must go to a well-deserved rest. Before his death, Yoda reports that Leah is the sister of Luke, and there is also Strength in her. After this conversation, he falls asleep with an eternal sleep, but later appears in the guise of a ghost with Obi-Wan. There is a version that Qui-Gon grasped the secrets of immortality and conveyed his experience to the former teacher, as a result of which the audience saw the astral projection of the great Jedi.
