Luke, Han, and Leia In The Empire Strikes Back, Darth Vader revealed the shocking truth to Luke; that he was really Anakin Skywalker, Luke's father.
Reva knows that Anakin Skywalker is Darth Vader because she was one of his targets—a child—during the Order 66 killings that took place during the events of Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith.
Qui-Gon Jinn discovered Anakin Skywalker, the prophesied Chosen One, during the fall of the Galactic Republic.
Palpatine. Palpatine was grooming Anakin for over a decade to become his newest Sith apprentice. Not only could Palpatine identify the uncertainty and darkness that resided within Anakin, but he actively used it to turn him toward the dark side.
Despite seeing Vader as an idol, Kylo conveniently ignored his grandfather's redemption. He was well aware of what happened, and it's likely Luke himself who told Ben about the events of Star Wars: Return of the Jedi.
Master Yoda knew that Darth Vader was once Anakin Skywalker- the boy he sensed too much fear in to train way back in Star Wars: The Phantom Menace.
In the material around the film from the Legends timeline, it's established that by the end of Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith, Kenobi was one of the characters who knew Anakin's Sith name was Darth Vader. However, what he didn't know was that he was still alive after Mustafar.
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.
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.
Heartbroken, Ahsoka realizes — or maybe fully accepts — that her former friend and teacher has suffered a fate worse than death, and that Anakin is, in fact, Darth Vader. But Ahsoka finally meets Darth Vader face-to-face in the Season 2 finale.
Biography. Legend had it that Yoda—a Jedi who became Grand Master—was trained by N'Kata Del Gormo.
Always a canny foe, Ventress baited Anakin by threatening to kill Padme Amidala, before striking him across the face. The scar became another symbol of Anakin's journey to the dark side when he punishes Ventress by binding her in cables and flinging her from the top of a skyscraper.
Jedi Master Yoda is the most powerful of them all. This should come as no surprise, as he was the head of the Jedi Order in the prequels and was revered for his abilities during the original trilogy. Yoda's power is unmatched and was a real threat to Darth Vader and the Imperials.
Later, the heroes go to the forest moon of Endor to prepare for a battle with the Empire. There, Luke reveals to Leia that she is his twin sister and that Vader is their father.
The Third Sister was at the Jedi Temple during Order 66. She either saw Anakin kill her fellow Jedi or saw the recording of his crimes. That's why she has such hatred for Obi-Wan. She was a Padawan who escaped Order 66.
During the iconic opening moments of Star Wars: A New Hope, Darth Vader has a tense confrontation with Princess Leia, an adversary who, unknown to him, is actually his daughter. Despite participating in Leia's interrogation, the Sith Lord doesn't uncover his familial connection with the rebellious royal.
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 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.
Throughout the main cinematic saga and supporting materials, many hints were dropped along the way as to where Panaka's allegiances lay, and such thoughts led to his eventual betrayal of Padmé and almost Leia as well. Panaka's support of now-Emperor Palpatine endured into the rise of the Galactic Empire.
Qui-Gon Jinn is seen by many as the best of the Star Wars prequel era's Jedi, and there is evidence that he could have even stopped Anakin Skywalker from falling to the dark side of the Force.
“Someday I'm going to fly away from this place.” Again, young Anakin's quote illustrates his aspirations.
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.
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."
Arguably, most Star Wars plot points revolve around characters simply not knowing something, very often about their family history. But, on top of all of that, the biggest reason Obi-Wan doesn't know Anakin is alive is that the last time he saw Anakin Skywalker in Revenge of the Sith, Ben literally left him for dead.
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.
