After Padme died, Anakin had already fully committed to the dark side. Even if he still desired to do good, his anger had corrupted him to the point of no return.
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.
The story is Anakin was manipulated to the dark side by Palpatine based on fears of losing Padme and appeals to his desire power and agency, over his life and the galaxy as a whole.
Because Padme was his incentive to turn to the dark side in the first place. Anakin's fear of Padme dying at childbirth, was what sparked his transition from a Jedi Knight to a Sith Lord. Vader was never going to return to the light side while he believed that Padme's life depended on him and Sidious.
Yes, his entire character since then was a self loathing tragic monster who has little reason to care about anything. Betraying Mace Windu instantly made him regret his act of impulse, Padme's death and rejection of his actions later on made it stick.
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.
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.
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.
Anakin Skywalker, in one last digged-effort, before his imprisonment as Darth Vader for the next 23 years, cries out for help. He yearns for his beloved Padme, with the words, “Padme, help me.”
It was also part of Darth Sidious' plot to ensure the passing of the Military Creation Act, of which Amidala was one of the leading opponents. The first attempt initially appeared to be a success, but Senator Amidala was found alive. The second attempt, however, was foiled by Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker.
However, when they next met in Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones, Anakin and Padmé's feelings for one another grew into something resembling love, and their wedding at the end of the film solidified their relationship as one of the most important romances in Star Wars history.
Did Padme ever cheat on Anakin? No. As explained above, Padme did not cheat on Anakin with either Obi-Wan Kenobi or Rush Clovis.
While Force healing could have saved Padmé, material from both continuities explains why Anakin couldn't use it. The Force is a fundamental omnipresent energy that can be used as “powers” by those who are trained to tap into it. One such power is healing oneself or another at an enhanced speed.
Anakin is a tragic hero at its finest, a man who turns evil and loses sight of what he was fighting for once his anger became too high, even choking Padme with his force abilities out of anger and pain, believing she didn't trust him after what he did to the young Jedi padawans.
Can't Stand - Emperor Palpatine. Some would say that Palpatine represented Vader's only friend and companion, but real fans know that this is anything but the case. In many ways, Palpatine enslaved Vader and, over the years, Vader undoubtedly grew to resent his master.
Anakin Skywalker Force choked Padmé on Mustafar due to the fact that he had become so blinded by hatred and rage after embracing the dark side of the Force.
So while it was never been outright said, it wouldn't be surprising if Yoda knew about Anakin and Padme's romance. Even with the birth of Anakin's children in Revenge of the Sith, Yoda didn't seem all that surprised.
He eventually became so desperate to find a way to prevent Padmé from dying that his fear was ultimately the main reason that led to his fall to the dark side. Vader screaming for the loss of Padmé. Even as a Sith Lord, Anakin still loved Padmé very much, but felt great guilt for his actions against her.
What he did not see, at the time at least, was that Padmé used her last breaths to tell Obi-Wan that she was certain that in regards to her husband, "there's still good in him." Now, those words are set to be revealed to someone other than Darth Vader himself.
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.
There are plenty of moments throughout the franchise where it is clear to see that Darth Vader still has some good in him. However, that full turn back to being a hero doesn't take place until he picks up Emperor Palpatine and throws him down the reactor core shaft.
Absolutely, had Anakin wanted to be redeemed. Obi-Wan looked at Anakin as a brother, and even before their final battle, Kenobi: Lied to the Jedi Order, or at the very least lied through omission and silence about Anakin's romance with a prominent anti-war sentator.
After all, keeping Anakin as Darth Vader relied on him believing he killed Padme, so the Emperor needed to make sure no part of the funeral suggested otherwise.
Once inside the spiritual realm, Vader went through various trials, but eventually, he found Padmé. All indication was that Vader could have brought her back to life just like Momin did with his body. But Padmé refused to come. She threw herself from a balcony, claiming that she no longer recognized her love.
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.
