Anakin Skywalker was one of, if not the most tragic character in modern fiction. His early childhood was spent as a slave with daily beatings. After being taken away from his only family, he was told to basically forget about his mother and bottle up his emotions by people that didn't trust him, despite calling him "The Chosen One." After being unable to save his mother, due to being held back in his training by essentially pawning him off to an inexperienced Obi-Wan, Anakin was thrust into a combat and leadership role in a war without the experience and means to cope with that level of stress. Fast forward a few years. Now he's experiencing constant nightmares of his secret wife dying in childbirth, but he can't just ask for help from the Jedi Council, because he could be expelled for his secret marriage and children. After being put on the Jedi Council, which would normally be a huge honor; Anakin is denied the rank of Master. Not only is this unfair and unorthodox; it also prevents him from accessing the restricted section that could possibly give him the knowledge he needs to save Padme. After that, Anakin is manipulated by one of the only people that he truly trusts into pretty much becoming a slave all over again. His older brother figure cut off all of his natural limbs and left him for dead, only for him to be put in a life support suit designed to make him live in constant pain for the rest of his life. Add the years of depression and guilt over the death of Padme and supposedly his children. Anakin eventually ended up torturing and nearly killing them anyway.

until his son came to save him and forgive him which is the best reward in any father wish, just to see his son with his own eyes. And to die and become a force ghost

@The Unknown Anakin is part of the Republic's exekutive. Right now it seems pretty likely that an US police officer will get away with murder without having a tragic backstory.

Alan Caldwell Anakin is a prime example of the flawed Jedi council. The Jedi are religious extremism and deserved what they got in order 66

I really appreciate that you gave Anakin the epithets "good" and "honest".. Good job

Thank you. @Mystery I only checked the comments to see if I was the only one baffled by "honest". There are a lot of good things that can be said about Anakin but honesty wasn't his strongest suit.

@@MysteryGaming101 I think "honest" is meant differently than you think. I would say his reasons are honest like wanting to save Padme

i almost forgot how badass anakin was with lightsaber, amazing video!

I've seen several videos with this song to Star Wars, but this is by far the best. Outstanding! If anyone watches this and still thinks the prequels are garbage they can't be helped anymore. I love how you attributed 'good' and 'honest' to Anakin. He truly was those things!

This is my favorite part of the whole song “A warning the the prophet the liar the honest this is war To the leader the pariah the victory the messiah This is war”

has anyone thought about the fact that obi wan and yoda might feel guilty for what happened to the jedi? i mean obi wan was the the one who discovered the clone army and yoda was the one who brought the clones to the battle of geonosis, thus integrating them into the republic/ jedi army's? I don't know, just a thought

They probably do. In general, while Palpatine was obviously the one who was messing with all of them, the Republic and Jedi (were they still alive) should feel guilty anyway. They fought a war against people that just wanted their freedom, sent the people that were raised on the belief they are there to keep peace to invade worlds and wage war (some of them were still children, no wonder Barris broke), were blind to the manipulations of the dark and through their firm belief in a code that was wrong to begin with, they are also largely responsible for pushing Anakin toward the dark side in the first place. Not to mention the republic used living, sentient and feeling soldiers send them into battle. Were we not constantly being told that the separatists were evil, do you really think you'd view them like that from a neutral standpoint? Palpatine orchestrated all of this, but while he gave them the right situation and judged their behaviour correctly, the blame for losing their morals and values, fighting against the very thing they claim to protect... that is entirely on the Republic and the Jedi.

Better question; does yoda feel guilty for the Jedi being so completely and utterly unprepared, that he was so scared of the sith or arrogant about the Jedi victory that despite leading the Jedi for nearly the entire millenium since the sith wars ended they were all but helpless against the sith.

0:15 you put anakin as good and palpatine as evil, !good job!

Man. I always come back in this video. And is the same feeling

To this day this edit remains and probably will forever remain in my top 5 favorites. Really well done ;D

Obi-Wan:"So Uncivilazed"

I was 10 when the phantom menace came out. As a young boi, going through puberty, I understand why Gen x love the originals. Those movies taught me all the emotions. When obi saw his master die and the anger took him for a brief moment. I felt that. Knew it.

Palpatine liar Anakin honest YESESSSR LOVE IT

The fact I keep coming back to this video is so bizarre to me. I love this so much I can't even put it into words. I love the song (30stm is one of my favourite bands) and this is star wars themed, not to mention the prequels. This is artwork.

The story of Anakin is like a Shakespeare tragedy

this is a work of art. I love edits like this. well done!

This made me feel all the feels. Amazing video. Epic!

Oh my gosh!! Instand goosebump material! Well done, the deiting, timing and connection to the characters is amazing! Thank you for this piece of art! The only thing that bothered me a bit was how the end of the song was cut short, I just love the whole emotion put into the final screaming part.

I love this, thank you for making this masterpiece😍

This was absolutely amazing! I loved it! :)

Was watching one of your other videos and randomly wondered if a Star Wars video had been made to this song AND THEN I FOUND THIS. love it, thank you

This is the coolest video to ‘ This is War‘ i‘ve ever seen😍 I really got goosebumps👏🏼👏🏼

this song makes every video better

THIS IS PERFECTION!!!

A lot of the editing cues are on point and give me goosebumps. Anakins story is so sad

Actualy this cut makes the first trilogy better than it is by highlighting it And I am highlighting in this video that it somehow gives time for those moments while it is not crowded by any other happenings, and it is making this one sooo much touching

I'm shaking this is so good

I BLOODY LOVE STAR WARS. AHHHHH SO GOOD. 😍😍💖💖

Darth Vader is my favorite character in the series and even tho I’ve only watched the ot and pm, I know he’s going to stand the test. In the jedi returns I was literally questioning myself on how a few minutes ago I didn’t care and wondering why luke was being kind and not destroying him to now loving him and crying. Like, this is someone that destroys planets and doesn’t have the formula for like able characters. I was so surprised than anakin was so innocent. He was hurled into a situation he didn’t understand and instead of receiving much needed guidance and support, he was left alone AND Palphatine purposely manipulated him

AAAH This is soo beautiful!! ❤❤ The song fits these movies soo well!! ❤❤❤ I love this song! And the prequels are soo underated, they deserve much more love!! Aand I love how you gave Anakin the lines "good" and "honest" :)

Wow! This is awesome! Love the words - so well chosen next to each character!

AWESOME! I FEEL THAT POWER!

If you understand Anakins character and all his stages then you’ll know he was all the people discussed

Wow, awesome

I'm not quite sure how, but this made lightsaber combat even cooler

0:46-1:13 perfect

Even though this video is 10hrs I never got bored

YO man nice video i loved it the song is going perfect with the scenes cool job man i'll make sure to sub to your channel man.

while anakin went out in the saddest way, I feel like Plo went out the worst way. Imagine being in a starfight and just blown into a building by your own fleet.
