Kanan pioneered the skullet game

Komorebi, Duri Baek

Shmi in tpm always has dignity, and her agency is emphasized, it's noteworthy. She's still not a main character- she's a role and a messenger more than a person in some ways- but her words and her choices are given respect by both the narrative and the main characters. She conveys several of the central themes and messages of the movies- and the entire series, bookending Vader's eventual choice. When Anakin wants to race, she is the one one who's permission he needs. She and Qui Gon speak quite extensively about Anakin going to the temple, and it's only with her permission that he asks Anakin, and then it's only with her encouragement that agrees. She's constricted by the harshest of circumstances, but her choices are some of the most important of the movie.

And she has this dignity about her.

AotC's presentation of her feels absurd as a contrast. We receive our update about her from Watto, and by the way he tells it, things just happened to her. Our next update is a story of a kidnapping which is an homage to a racist caricature. She is tortured for no apparent reason, a brutal narrative tool to drive anakin to rage. She gets one single scene of her own, and can barely speak. Her death fuels her son to a fate we know she did not want for him. She has no choices and her words do nothing.

It's sort of remarkable to get these two stories back to back.

and then in RotS, Anakin's dreams about Padme are a crystal clear echo of the ones he had of Shmi. This trigger sets his downward spiral in motion, driving the climax of the trilogy. She is never mentioned at all. Anakin has no memory of her words, her lessons.
