Obi-Wan Kenobi and Jon Snow

The main trait that both Obi-Wan Kenobi and Jon Snow have in common is honor. These two are true to their word, and always seem to do what is right. It’s so easy to cheer for both, as they just have the qualities of a good character.

In Star Wars, we see Obi-Wan develop from a Padawan into a Jedi Master. He’s defeated some tough opponents in lightsaber duels including Darth Maul and Anakin Skywalker.

For Jon Snow, he like Obi-Wan is an outstanding warrior. He does a phenomenal job of leading on the battlefields, and has had some tremendous victories throughout his career. Plus, his development is quite intriguing. He goes from a member of the Knight’s Watch to the King in the North.

What also should be noted is that both have a lot of respect among other characters within their universes. Many people in Game of Thrones want to see Jon sit on the Iron Throne. For Obi-Wan, he is tasked with several difficult missions that he can is trusted to complete.

What should also be mentioned is each character had to make a difficult decision. Obi-Wan eventually had to duel his former Padawan Anakin Skywalker, while Jon Snow had to betray his true love, Daenerys Targaryen.

Obi-Wan Kenobi and Jon Snow have so many similar characteristics, but it all comes back to their skills and honor. They’re two characters who fans will always cheer for, and at the end of the day, they can be trusted to do what is right.
