The short answer is yes, without a doubt, Vader regretted becoming a cybernetic monstrosity. First, there's the constant pain and discomfort from his suit. Worse, however, is the psychological pain. Vader destroyed everything he had ever known for a chance to save Padme.
Yes, he did. He regretted it everyday. But he had no choice.
Skywalker does, beheading Dooku as he gives in to his base emotions. He almost immediately feels regret, but Palpatine works to dismiss it. “It's only natural… You wanted revenge.
You also see him crying after wiping out the Seperatist leaders on Mustafar. He was terribly conflicted emotionally this entire time, and it's pretty clear he regretted what he did from the beginning.
He regretted it the moment he did it. He asked himself what he just did, dropped his lightsaber, and was visibly ashamed of himself when Palpatine anointed him a Sith Lord and began his speech about wiping out the Jedi.
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.
He slays Sidious and returns to Obi-Wan, begging for atonement by execution, only to be met with true forgiveness instead. But just as this fantasy Obi-Wan refuses to strike his former friend down, Vader refuses to turn his back on the dark.
Darth Vader : You have failed me for the last time, Admiral! Captain Piett? Captain Piett : Yes, my lord? Darth Vader : Make ready to land our troops beyond their energy field, and deploy the fleet, so that nothing gets off the system.
Anakin trusted Darth Sidious, not out of sincere trust, but because Palpatine drove a wedge between him and the Jedi Council. Revenge of the Sith ended with Anakin losing most of his limbs and having to be reconstructed into a cyborg.
After the destruction of the Death Star, Darth Vader became obsessed with finding Luke Skywalker.
Over the years since the Youngling massacre, and even sometime before, Darth Vader has regretted killing the Younglings, recognizing that it was the most terrible thing he had ever done.
Giving in to his feelings, Anakin cuts off Mace Windu's hand, giving Palpatine the opportunity to kill him. Anakin regrets this almost instantly, but the thought of Padme was stronger than his remorse This is the moment Anakin officially became Darth Vader and led to serious issues in the Skywalker Saga.
Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker hints at Palpatine's real purpose for Darth Vader. It's an open secret that Palpatine was disappointed with Darth Vader; he thought he was getting the Chosen One, a force of nature who could not be beaten, and yet Darth Vader was defeated the moment he crossed blades with an adult Jedi.
Had Anakin not converted: Padme would have been killed by the Emperor before childbirth, and before Anakin and Obi wan returned from the mission to destroy general Grievous. Regardless: order 66 probably still would have happened since the army was under control of the dicator in Palpatine.
Although the decision to turn to the Dark Side was Anakin's alone, the choice did not come from thin air. His natural prone to impulsivity and emotion without the support systems he needed in place made it easier for Anakin to stumble down a path of darkness.
This is confirmed later in the movie when Obi-Wan informs Padme that Anakin killed them. Both are torn apart with hurt and confusion, trying to make sense of something so terrible.
Abstract. Anakin Skywalker, one of the main characters in the "Star Wars" films, meets the criteria for borderline personality disorder (BPD).
In particular, Vader hated Jedi Knights, as they stood in opposition to him and all that he represented. Vader also deeply hated Obi-Wan Kenobi — Darth Vader's former master and longtime teacher —due to the fact that his former master refused to turn to the dark side and instead chose a more peaceful path of the Jedi.
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. Galen was secretly trained as a Sith Lord apprentice to Vader, but returned to the light side and the Jedi.
After all, SOMEBODY had to train Luke in order to defeat Darth Vader and the rest of the Empire. So how many Jedi died during the attack? Almost 10,000—meaning that only 0.2% of Jedi survived.
11 David Prowse
The very first actor to suit up as Darth Vader and make an appearance on the big screen was bodybuilder David Prowse.
Anakin admits to Obi-Wan that he has been arrogant and unappreciative of his training, and apologizes to his master. Obi-Wan assures Anakin that he is proud of him, telling him that he has become a "far greater Jedi than I could ever hope to be."
Obi-Wan knew it was only a matter of time. So, he made the difficult decision to use his learnings and become one with the force, rather than let Vader decapitate him. Who knows; losing one's head may make it more difficult to transition smoothly into a Force ghost.
