Tropes:

  • Absurdly Spacious Sewer: Used by Obi-Wan and Anakin to sneak into an enemy base.
  • All There in the Manual
    • The Separatist commander in the opening is Oro Dassyne, a Koorivar. The planet he is on is Bomis Koori IV.
    • The father and son Wookiee are Tarkov and Jaccoba, named after director Genndy Tartakovsky and his son, Jacob.
    • The four-legged Kashyyyk creature is named in the Databank as a Grantaloupe.
    • The planet overrun by spider droids is Bal'demnic.
    • The Ortolan with battle droids in his eyes is Nem Bees, an undercover Jedi.
    • The beast which Anakin takes down on Nelvaan is identified as a horax in the audio commentary.
    • The female Nelvaanian chieftain is named in The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia as Tuzes-Adaz.
  • Every Scar Has a Story: Anakin Skywalker received a scar across his right eye. This carries over into Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, where Hayden Christensen sports the scar over his right eye.
  • Extreme Omnivore: Oddly, Anakin brings a bag of bugs and worms to the little makeshift shelter he and Obi-Wan hang out in while waiting out a protracted siege and starts happily chomping on them. When Obi-Wan expresses his disgust, Anakin quips about how Obi-Wan always taught him to "feed off the living Force".
  • G-Rated Sex: We see Anakin and Padme having a respite from the war and spending time together, culminating on spending the night together, it's implied that that was the moment they conceived Luke and Leia.
  • Kingpin in His Gym: Count Dooku, a.k.a. Darth Tyranus, was shown training General Grievous.
  • One-Man Army: The opening scene has a commander of a droid base bragging that it would take at least 50 Jedi to take it. The droid standing next to him tells him there are Jedi approaching. The commander's first guess at their number is 1000, but there are only two. Those two are Obi-Wan and Anakin, who utterly destroy the droid army without batting an eye. The massive army of non-Jedi clones they brought with them probably helped.
  • Reduced to Ratburgers: Anakin had a lunch of a bag full of bugs.
  • Ridiculously Cute Critter: The blue, elephant-like species of Ortolans (which first appeared in Return of the Jedi) , when the Separatist Droids invade their homeworld.
  • Storming the Castle: Averted. Obi-Wan and Anakin have been assigned to help out a siege effort of a clone army. Obi-Wan, bored out of his mind, asks Commander Cody how much longer it will take for them to take the enemy's position. Cody cheerfully responds three months, saying they're making good progress, while Obi-Wan moans about how long they've already been there. Then he and Anakin find an underground tunnel to sneak into the city, and take out its shields reactor, allowing the clones to storm all over it.
  • Unspoken Plan Guarantee: Playfully averted. Obi-Wan and Anakin are leading the siege of a city when Anakin discovers a secret way inside past the shields. In a deadpan voice, Obi-Wan says, "So I assume the plan is to crawl through the sewer, work our way to the shield generator, fight our way through the defenses, blow up the generator, knocking out the shield and all our troops swarm in and overwhelm the enemy?" They then do exactly that.
