The old rationale was that Anakin brought balance to the force as the prophecy foretold by defeating Sidious at the end of VI. But now that Palpatine somehow returned a little bit later, and had a collection of clones and sith followers secretly building super death star destroyers on the super secret sith planet making him more powerful than ever before, it kinda feels like the prophecy was just bs.

Unless you want to really stretch it and be like "Anakin brought balance to the force by temporarily pacifying the dark side for like a couple decades and being related to people like Kylo, Luke, and Leia who played a significant part in more solidly defeating the dark side later on"
