...Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader is NOT a sympathetic character.
Dude is out here murdering innocents and snapping kids necks just to lure Obi-Wan out, and then has the nerve to blame Obi-Wan for it.


Not that him murdering kids is new. This guy deserved everything that happened to him and worse, and it's NOT the fault of the Jedi or Obi-Wan or even Palpatine really. Anakin is just a scumbag that blames everybody else for his terrible decisions and behavior. Not saying he's a bad character but I see too many people acting like this guy is deserving of sympathy. The fact that he saved HIS kid doesn't nearly make up for his pure lifetime of being a murdering scumbag. In fact you could argue that its just Anakin being selfish as usual since he'll save HIS kid but murder everybody else's.

If Qui-Gon shows up Obi should ask why he doomed the Jedi by making him train this bytch ass nikka. Low key I hope Obi drops him in lava again.



Okay that's the end of my rant just been seeing too many people acting like Skywalker is this fallen hero when he's just a terrible person.

So..some of your criticism of him is kinda harsh (not just cause he was/is my favorite character. What you're saying ive heard before and some is warranted.

One of my biggest gripes about the prequels is tcw should have been a two part movie. It would have given a better light on him, and developed him more. And how people viewed him (so much in the books)
Hes not a scumbag respectfully. Hes a flawed, disgustingly talented man with good intentions and even bigger insecurities and he tries to do the right thing. (i.e. going out his way to save a clone trooper when others wouldnt have), albeit ill executions. He defended ahsoka, when damn near everyone turnt their back on her.

He's a man who there is virtually no blueprint for.

He had no friends at the temple, due to his chosen one status so he spent alot of time with droids.

He fufilled his calling that the force laid out at his feet. No one said the road would be easy.
Qui gon didnt make obi take him per se but It was an unintended consequence from his death If it wasnt for dude they wouldnt have made it off the outer rim. If it wont for qui gon he would still be enslaved. Anakin actually was going to leave the order, and obi was going to willingly leave with him..they both loved qui gon. Plus, anakin proved hiself to obi after the battle of Naboo.


Vader is palatines creation, with assistance from everyone..
