Why did Obi-Wan call Yoda the Jedi master who trained him? Did he forget about Qui-Gon Jinn? No, of course not. Obviously at the time of making The Empire Strikes Back, I think Yoda was meant to be Obi-Wan’s master. The character of Qui-Gon Jinn hadn’t been created yet. But now that we know the full story of the prequels, while we know that Obi-Wan was Qui-Gon’s Padawan, we also know that Yoda had a passion for teaching younglings, so he had a hand in every Jedi’s training. Not to mention, it would have been odd for Obi-Wan to tell Luke to go to Dagobah to find the Jedi Master that trained him when he was a kid, and aw man, I wish my real master were still alive, but oh well, beggars can’t be choosers, Luke!
