Although aligned with the Separatists, Grievous does not care for their political ideals and has professed that he only participates in the conflict to eliminate the Jedi. He harbors a deep-seated resentment of the Jedi and has a vast collection of lightsabers claimed from his many victims as war trophies.
General Grievous had an intense hatred for the Jedi, who had sided with the brutal and oppressive Huks during the Huk War, who enslaved his people, the Kaleesh. Whenever he got the chance, Grievous would hunt down and kill Jedi, taking their lightsabers as war trophies.
Grievous utterly hates the Jedi and their evil Order for committing genocide on his people when he was a warlord. He exploited the Jedi's "compassion" for the clone troopers under their command, exemplified during his attack on the Kaliida Shoals Medical Center.
Most Jedi cannot help but fear Grievous, but Mace Windu does not, allowing him to defeat the General twice. Grievous' training under Count Dooku is shown in Star Wars: Clone Wars, which not only highlights lightsaber combat, but also psychological warfare.
While the Jedi would remain his sworn enemy, Grievous was a threat to Force users outside their order as well. In fact, perhaps his greatest kill was not a Jedi at all, but a dark side adherent of such immense power that even Emperor Palpatine feared her as his equal.
There is also an in-universe reason that Grievous and Anakin never met each other. Anakin was instrumental in Darth Sidious' plan to overthrow the Republic and the Jedi. He needed Anakin for his machinations, but he also needed General Grievous to keeping razing the galaxy. He couldn't afford to lose either of them.
Grievous was trained and designed to engage with Jedi in a way that would disadvantage them by exploiting their ways. “A Jedi uses the Force for knowledge and defense, never for attack.” The Jedi Generals in the Clone Wars were trained and raised to never use the force for attack.
His cybernetics presumably provide him with the right precision, meaning he can use any color he wishes without difficulty. And since the character's hatred for the Jedi is pronounced, it only makes sense that his “trophy” lightsabers would be exclusively green and blue: he doesn't hunt Dooku or his allies.
General Grievous, the Supreme Commander of the Droid Army, had an obsessive hatred of the Jedi Order due to the Jedi and Republic's one-sided role in ending a war that resulted in the genocide of Grievous' people when he was a warlord.
Grievous was originally Qymaen jai Sheelal, an organic reptilian humanoid native from the planet Kalee. The Kaleesh were at war with the rival Huk species and Sheelal was considered a demigod by his people for his victories in the Huk War.
Ok so let's get into it Mace Windu survives, The fall but he has lost his weapon and is servilely wounded in now hostile territory. This is why I believe he would go into hiding for some time thoughout the early years of The Galactic Empire.
Qui-Gon is one of the most powerful Jedi in the saga: highly skilled in the Force and mastering abilities that other Jedi couldn't, including the ability to consciously manifest after death. But more than his abilities as an individual, it was his maverick philosophy that the Emperor feared.
Grievous Hero commanded the heroic Subjugator-class heavy cruiser Malevolence and followed Dooku's orders. Dooku later got fed up with Grievous's "failures" (due to plot armor) and tried to kill the heroic General by having a trap set up for him to "test his skills" in Grievous's castle.
They hold that Obi-Wan's defensive style of fighting confounded Grievous. The villain defeated many Jedi by turning their own styles against them, but Kenobi played the long game, protected himself and waited for an opportunity.
Count Dooku didn't like the Jedi Order, but he particularly disliked Master Windu. Disney+'s Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi explains why. The following contains spoilers from Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi Season 1, streaming now on Disney+.
Sidious wasn't scared of Grievous as he served him as a means to an end, rather that he was concerned about what the Kaleesh Cyborg would do if he ever knew about Sidious orchestrating both sides during The Clone Wars.
Yes. This is going to be unpopular, however, it's fairly clear from various sources, including Lucas himself, that Palpatine did let Mace Windu win. Lucas himself noted during hos commentary on the film But this part where he, he pretends to lose his power and be weak was something I added later. We al…
