Refusing to watch his son die, Vader—who still had good within him—threw his Master down a reactor shaft. This act redeemed Vader from the dark side of the Force, and he once again became Anakin Skywalker. With Sidious dead, the Sith were defeated.
Yes, he did turn back to the good side of the force at the end of Return of the Jedi. Now many will over complicate it by saying Anakin Skywalker returned or was resurrected within Vader and when that happened Darth Vader died and Anakin lived once more and so technically Vader didn't turn to the good side lol…
Anakin does not have even the slightest bit of remorse. By the end, he feels nothing but anger. Although he feels regret for killing Padme, he still helps the evil Emperor. The film ends with Anakins standing side by side with the man on whose behalf he has committed all his crimes.
Yes. In both Legends and new Canon, Anakin could've been completely healed. In Legends we had the Kaiburr crystal. Not to be confused with the Kyber crystals of new Canon.
Vader died destroying the emperor and his sith master, Darth Sidious. Anakin Skywalker was freed. He died a short time later due to failure of his suit, damaged in that fight. In that short time, Anakin returned to the light.
Padme would be alive and well and she'd surely be a leading force in the eventual Rebellion, pitting her and her children against her fallen love. Now for the sake of argument, let's say that Anakin didn't go after the Emperor and he stayed on Dagobah with Padme and the twins.
Yes, he did. He regretted it everyday. But he had no choice.
Short answer? No. It's been clear that the main issue had to do with Anakin's mental state. If Anakin just got the help he needed and stayed loyal to the Jedi Order, overcoming Palpatine's evil temptations, Padmé would've survived.
One of the main reasons why Yoda would've won against Anakin is simply because he was far better trained than him. Yoda could see the moves his opponents were going to make before they made them; therefore, battling against Anakin would've put him at a far heavier advantage.
In the main Star Wars timeline, of course, Darth Vader's attempts to resurrect Padmé on Mustafar were doomed to failure. But it's fascinating to speculate what would have happened had he been successful. In that scenario, Padmé Amidala's return from the dead would not have provided the solace Darth Vader sought.
What Padmé knew about Anakin's previous dark deeds. Padmé was well aware that Anakin had committed dark crimes that would've started his fall to the dark side. He even confessed to her that he had massacred an entire Tusken Raider village to avenge his mother, leaving no one alive.
Yes, when Darth Vader turned back to Anakin Skywalker and sacrifice himself to save his son, he dies and Obi-Wan uses the force to connect with Anakin's spirit. In that time Anakin apologizes to Obi-Wan, desperately asking him to forgive him for everything he has done to him and everybody over the years.
Can't Stand - Mace Windu. Some say that Mace Windu is one of the biggest reasons why Vader turned to the dark side in the first place.
In Star Wars Legends and Canon, Galen Marek (Starkiller) is the only Jedi (other than Obi-Wan Kenobi) to put a beat down on Darth Vader/Anakin Skywalker.
Vader saved Luke from the Emperor and killed his evil Master, once again becoming Anakin Skywalker. But he suffered mortal wounds from the Emperor's Force lightning, and knew that his end was near.
Yes Vader knew Sidious manipulated him. In the Darth Vader (2017) comics he declares that he knows Emperor Palpatine had been lying to him about the Dark Side's ability to cheat death. In fact right from the very start, when he came off the operating table and was told Padme was dead, he realised Sidious had used him.
Yoda didn't specifically know how this would go down, or to what degree Anakin would cause it to happen, but he was playing a much longer game by Revenge of the Sith, and that's at least, in part, explained by Yoda's Force connection with Qui-Gon's spirit.
Darth Sidious was able to cheat his upcoming death by transferring his spirit into a clone body while falling into the reactor core of the second Death Star. He later sought to prolong his existence by futilely manipulating his grandchild Rey into killing him so he could live further by possessing her body.
throughout many of the Legends storylines, Vader sought to hunt down every last Jedi. while Palpatine was no longer concerned with the Jedi. Order, in his eyes, Yoda and the Jedi no longer posed a threat to his role. during the early years of the Empire, Palpatine only sent Vader to hunt survivors.
The canonical comic Star Wars: Darth Vader #7 confirms the younglings' deaths caused Anakin grief, self-loathing, hatred and pain, fueling his descent even further into the dark side.
Did Padme ever cheat on Anakin? No. As explained above, Padme did not cheat on Anakin with either Obi-Wan Kenobi or Rush Clovis.
Theory: Anakin Subconsciously Took Padme's Life Force, Facilitated By Padme's Will To Help Him. The ending of Revenge of the Sith tugged at our heartstrings on a certain level.
The last members of the Order of the Sith Lords founded by Bane, Darth Sidious and his successive apprentices Darth Maul, Darth Tyranus and Darth Vader, were all capable of speaking Sith fluently.
Yes he did. And the saddest thing is that there was nothing he could do about it. He was broken. The first case is shortly after ROTS when Vader was making his Sith lightsaber.
If he had not burned, Vader could've been stronger, faster, more agile, and continue to perfect his original lightsaber fighting style instead of having to relearn how to fight with a modified Djem So. He would also be able to use Force lightning if he was never burned.
