Anakin is directly tied to Obi Wan's plot, so while any appearance of Vader is sure to please fans, his inclusion is not what I would call fan service.

I'm sure in TV ep6 Ben will become Obi Wan once more and defeat Vader in a light sabre battle

I rewatched the scene, and you're right! Not sure how i missed that. I still stand by the blatant offscreen teleportation jarring me completely out of the moment though.

A suffusion of yellow
there was absolutely no expectation that Obiwan would encounter Vader until his death in the movie, so while it might make sense for Vader to be seen in his fortress, actually having an entire episode where Vader comes out of his fortress to have a lightsabre fight with Obi-wan was absolutely fan service

You didn't think Anakin would come after Obi Wan in an Obi Wan show?
...I don't know what to tell you.
But when I think of fan service, I think of something that was inserted into a show ONLY to please the fans on a superficial level, and not to serve the plot. Kinda like how the You-will-be-dead-guy showed up in Rogue One for no good reason.
This show follows up directly on the events of Revenge of the Sith, so of course Vader is going to be in it.

I haven’t. I did hear she was fully engaged in the fight right from the begining
That is awful as I assume its bad. I don’t blame her for the casting or the script

So, Obi-wan not knowing Anakin survived and became Vader is something that has been canon and was not just made up for this show:

So....five kids got away from Order 66...ok, well, it's possible.
So...are Inquisitors Sith?
So....Ben K gets a job as a bottom of the sand pile worker drone? Why? What does he really need money for? He is a hermit that lives in a cave! Maybe he does it for a cover....but, you know, hermit guy works too.
Ben K seems a bit odd not caring about the jedi guy....is not helping other jedi part of the Code?
Jedi Joe sure seems to find Ben K easy enough.....
Um....stealing is against the Jedi code too...right?
And....Ben K seems way wrong that he does not respect Owens wishes...
And like a minute later Owen shows he is 100% times better then Ben, when he does not give Ben up....
So...Ben is about the WORST at hiding. And the Empire could not find him in TEN YEARS?!?
Also....umm...Darth Anikin KNOWS all about the Laars farm. So in TEN YEARS he never sent even ONE person to check it out?
Jedi and Sith can feel and detect each other, right? So....why does that not happen?
Do the Inquisitors, NOT have Sith mind powers? Or are they too low level or something? You'd think having the Force powers of "mind reading", "feelings" "detecting thoughts" and such would be REQUIRED for an Inquisitor....
Too bad Leia did not get a Jedi Protector like Luke.....
So Luke "must be trained"....but, um, WHAT ABOUT LEIA?!? Is she not just as likely to be the "Child of the Chosen One"?
And Ben K does not even try to hide his lightsaber? Does not EVERYONE know that is a Jedi weapon?
And...and.....this show has a Star Wars Lore Advisor.....who is PAID to get everything above right! But if they did that, there would be no text above!
S1E2
A Jedi Con?? Does not seem so wise to pretend to be part of the MOST HUNTED KILL ON SIGHT GROUP IN THE GALAXY!
Guess Ben found Leia by luck?
So the bad guys put out an APB on Ben.....wonder why no one thought to try that on Tattionne?
Leia sure acts very DUMB....does she not understand she was kidnapped and is in a very dangerous place?
Is that lizard guy on the rooftop a Gorn from Star Trek?
So sure Leia is a clueless little girl....but she "suddenly" thinks Ben is a jedi because he sort of catches her and drops her on the ground. Does she not know sith can make people float?
But Leia acts like she does not know about the Sith? But....um...would this NOT be common knowledge.....like taught to school children. Like DARTH VADER is a public figure, right? EVERYONE knows who he is, right? Sure they don't know all the details...but "Dark Lord of the Sith that slaughtered all the Jedi" is commonly known, right?
So...suddenly Reva HAS Force mind powers!?! Good thing she forgot to use them on Tattoine.
I though the empire locked down the planet...no one in or out......yea the transport just zooms away?
S1E3
Of course, the problem with a story like this is Vader just sits around as his castle and tells Third Minion Sister to find Ben as it is so important. Not important enough to do himself....but very important.
Ban K can fix driods now? Sure, it's just a Palyskool Driod, but still.....
Hummm....they make an odd point.....is not Senator Bel Leia's stepdad...evil as he is part of the Evil Empire? Or is he like part of the good minority?
So Leia acted like an idiot last episode......but now she is a grant master spy in like seconds
So that is a lightsaber gate?
And was that a FEMALE Stromtrooper that came out of the second transport?
And a FEMALE Officer too? Oh...but she is a spy!
So Ben can feel Darth Vader.....but Vader can't feel Ben?
So why does Vader move his robot arms to do Force powers? In a living Sith they would go through the body, right? But the Force does not flow through technology, right?
Is there some reason Ben's lightsaber glows so much?
So.....Obi-Wan Kenobi and Darth Vader have an EPIC Legendary duel.......but it's so sad. But sure Ben is not the guy he used to be....but then should not Vader have won a lot easier?
Odd all that burning sand hardly seems to hurt Ben at all....not even burn his hair
And then Vader is like "oh well, he is gone?"
