Blightzkrieg 08/19/22 11:38:32 PM #7:	Anakin and Vader are not two different personalities so there's not a decisive moment. Anakin being declared a sith by Palpatine is seemingly the moment where he excuses himself of any wrongdoing and assumes his new identity, but it depends whether that's what you consider to be the defining Vader trait. Being put in the suit and losing Padme is where he loses any sense of hope and ambition. --- http://i.imgur.com/1XbPahR.png <cite>Blightzkrieg posted [p:967434796] in When does ...

Relient_K 08/20/22 3:23:09 PM #22:	I haven't watched ep 3 in over a decade probably so I'm a little rusty. There is definitely a point of no return for him (with his only hope of redemption throwing himself at the mercy of remaining Jedi, which he obviously does not do). I think that point would be when he betrayed Windu to save Palpatine. It could also be seen as the moment where Obi Wan fully gives up on him on Mustifar. I think he was the only one with any hope of pulling him back from the dark side. He failed, and the moment that hope left Obi Wans eyes was the same moment where Anakin "died", with Vader being "born" from his burning flesh. --- We all ate the biscuits, Fighter.
