Cody/Obi-Wan Kenobi, also known as Codywan, is the ship between Cody (CC-2224) and Obi-Wan Kenobi. The two appear together often in Star Wars: The Clone Wars, with Cody serving as Commander of the 212th Battalion under General Kenobi.
Canon
Fandom
Codywan started out as a rarepair, qualifying for the Star Wars Rare Pairs Exchange for several years. The ship experienced a sudden jump in popularity in 2020 and continued to see massive growth in the next few years to become a major ship.[1]
Codywan is one of the most popular ships for the Clone Wars fandom, and the second-most popular relationship tag for the Star Wars: The Clone Wars (2008) fandom. Its popularity likely stems in part from the popularity of Kenobi, who is both more well-known and a fan favorite character.
Tropes
- Fix-it fic
- Post Order 66/Purge Trooper Cody
