He was never the villain, but the victim.

Alright, so since i'm in quarantine I've taken the opportunity to have a Star Wars marathon and it ended up in this. Anakin has always been a favorite of mine due to me growing up with the prequels. As I grew older, I managed to understand his story and sympathise with him. I find it quite interesting, sad and tragic how his story played out, and it does truly bind the whole saga together. He was always the Chosen One, even after he turned. The whole saga is about him, idc what disney says... i'm not counting the sequels. One thing people managed to misunderstand is that Anakin didn't turn 'easily'. It has all been building up. If you've watched the Clone Wars series, you have a better understanding. But I wanted to focus on how he got where he got. The council was far from flawless, and Obi-Wan was never the perfect master. His whole life the Jedi Order has been crucial to him. It was all he had. When they asked him to do something against the code, it shakes his trust in them even further. And it is against someone who he sees as a father figure. Prior to this, he had Ahsooka, who got wrongfully expelled from the order and that was when Anakin realised the corruption and flaws. Palpatine managed to twist this even futher. On top of that, the love of his life was in danger of dying. All Anakin wanted was to save the ones he loved and obey the order. He was never evil, he never had the intentions. And he did meditate on this and what saving Padme meant. I wanted to at least try and show it in this video/edit but hey idk if it worked.
