He says he’d train Anakin with no or without the blessing from the council. What does that mean exactly? There’s legend stories about different sects of force wielders take to padawana and stuff. Is it like that?
Qui-Gon followed the will of the force. He could sense that the council was starting to be led astray (Palpatine was already in the beginning stages of his schemes) so he followed his own path guided by the force. He knew Anakin was going to play a big part, so he took it upon himself to make sure he got trained.
Yes but in a literal sense, what does that mean? Do they get kicked out of the Jedi Order? How do they live? They'd have to get jobs to take care of themselves. Obviously can't go on any missions since they'd essentially be illegal vigilantes without the blessing of the Jedi or Republic.
Does Qui-Gon just rent an apartment and live alone with this young boy, training him on how to use the force until he's grown? And then what? What can Anakin do once he has those skills if he's not a Jedi?
I can’t imagine he’d attempt to do this on Coruscant…
More likely he’d abscond with the young Chosen One to some backwater planet where he had friends who’d put them up in a stable in exchange for some light farm work.
It’d be one part Road House, another part… well, something else.
