Yes, R2-D2 knew Anakin Skywalker became Darth Vader, witnessing his transformation and fall, but he kept it secret from Luke and Leia, likely out of loyalty, the trauma of the event (Anakin's final moments with Padmé), or to protect Luke, as this YouTube video explains and this TikTok video details R2-D2's emotional state, showing he felt deep sadness and confusion. He was present at Mustafar and saw Anakin choke Padmé and fight Obi-Wan, and while C-3PO's memory was wiped in *Revenge of the Sith*, R2-D2's was not, leaving him as the sole keeper of the truth.
To answer your question R2 saw anakin die and did not see vader face to face until tantive iv at no point was he privy to vaders secret While with bail organa.
To answer the original question, I'm pretty sure that R2 never knew that Anakin became Vader. He wasn't there when Anakin was named Vader, he didn't know what happened on Mustafar. All he knew is that Anakin told R2 to stay with the ship, and that was the last time R2 saw Anakin.
Because R2 and Yoda rarely crossed paths. At most R2 would remember Yoda but only as a Jedi master. To Yoda, on the other hand, R2 probably was a background droid.
After Anakin's fall and defeat, R2 left Mustafar with Obi wan and Padme. Once Padme died, Bail Organa took R2 and gave him to Captain Antilles on the Tantive IV. From there he became Luke's and then Leia's. Anakin and Padme traded droids as if they were wedding rings.
Absolutely. Growing up on Tatooine, Anakin Skywalker was already accustomed to grasping and understanding many different languages. Not to mention, he was a droid fanatic himself—being a great mechanic—and most likely knew the language of Artoo's “droid language” or picked up on it quite quickly.
No, Darth Plagueis is not Anakin Skywalker's biological father, but there's a strong theory (especially in Star Wars Legends and early drafts) that his experiments with midi-chlorians to create life led the Force itself to create Anakin, the Chosen One, as a reaction, making Plagueis the "unintentional father" of the prophecy. In current canon, Plagueis is a legend Palpatine uses to lure Anakin, and the exact nature of Anakin's conception by the Force remains a mystery, though he had no conventional father.
I genuinely believe ahsoka was one of yoda's favourite Jedi ever!!!
Though there was some debate among the fans that Anakin Skywalker's son, Luke Skywalker, was actually the Chosen One since he caused his father to destroy Darth Sidious, the debate was settled when George Lucas himself confirmed in an interview that Anakin, even after becoming Darth Vader, was still officially the ...
Neither C3PO or R2D2 ever got to know Darth Vader. Nor would they hve been able to recognize anything about Vader that would have indicated that he was once Anakin Skywalker. Moreover, C3PO's memory was wiped clean after the twins were born. Thus he would no longer have any memory of his former “maker” either.
Anakin said "stay with the ship" and he did. Even when everything inside him told him not to. He waited. And watched him leave.
Fun fact: Thrawn met Anakin on Battu during the clone wars, years later Thrawn and Vader went on a mission to Battu and just from observing Vader and seeing how he fought, felt, thought, everything. He found out that Vader was Anakin but kept the secret to himself.
After Anakin falls to the dark side of the Force and becomes Darth Vader, he takes R2-D2 with him when he goes to assassinate the Separatist council, but he tells him to stay with the ship.
It's clear R2 didnt have his memory wiped. He navigated for Vader on his flight from Couriscant to Mustifar. He was hanging out on the landing platform next to and slightly above the one Padme landed on with 3po and Obi Wan. He would have witnessed Padme being force choked and the begining of Vader and Obi Wans duel.
Because they only met R2 for a few days and There's millions of r2 units. The bigger memory is going to be anakin and Padme there, not the random droid that can't even speak to them and probably wasn't just hanging around owen and beru imprinting on them.
Vader breaks free of the operating table and takes a few steps before doing the only thing anybody in his position could do, he screams an unholy, bloodcurdling scream. His vocal computer has nothing close to this sound in its database so it translates it to the infamous 'Noooooooooo'.
In canon it was Kirak Infil'a , Cere Junda, Obi-Wan and Lord Momin . All messed him up quite badly with Kirak winning round 1 but losing round 2 and Momin cutting off his arm. Obi-Wan actually beat Vader. In Legends it was Shaa Koon, An'ya Kuro, a clone of Maul and Galen Marek.
