VOTE: The Power of Anakin Skywalker - Part II

Anakin's power has been stated to be unlimited and unparalelled.

As Palpatine, he befriended Skywalker, becoming a close friend and a fatherly authority to a youthful warrior often confused by the seemingly boundless power and abilities he had at his disposal.

Databank (2008): Darth Sidious


Skywalker was seduced by the dark side of the Force. His boundless abilities fueled a sense of pride that hastened his fall.

[...]

Palpatine elevated himself to the position of Emperor, and dispatched Vader as his ultimate enforcer. With his unparalleled Force abilities, Vader swept through the Jedi Temple.


Databank (2008): Darth Vader


Anakin ragdolled the Son and the Daughter:

A series of tests proves that Anakin is capable of controlling both offspring, as the Father does, but Skywalker refuses to take the Father's place.

The Clone Wars Episode Guide: Overlords


Rejecting the ultimatum, Anakin overpowers the Force to tame both winged creatures. Obi-Wan and Ahsoka are freed, and Daughter and Son return to their humanoid forms. Father declares only the Chosen One could control both his children, the embodiments of selflessness and selfishness.

Ultimate Star Wars


Several years after, Anakin feels more powerful than ever:

Anakin had never felt so powerful. The Force was with him today in ways more potent than he had ever experienced.

Revenge of the Sith novelization


At absolute peak performance, no amps, do you think Anakin could replicate what he pulled off on Mortis?

What's the point of this poll? It's been confirmed that peak Anakin is Father level, and there was a what-if story of Anakin joining with The Son and stomping Sidious and Yoda at once.

A pretty good example of why taking every quote literally and taking every quote as an indisputable fact isn't a great approach to things.

If the circumstances are perfect, then yes, Anakin can probably momentarily show us his full potential. He isn't doing this and hasn't done this with any degree of consistency and hence it's completely irrelevant to bring up regarding a versus fight.

Stover's narration is consistent with Anakin's portrayal in TCW. He is held back by his guilt and fear, but once he lets go, whatever he wills becomes reality. He willed Dooku should lose, so Dooku lost. He willed the Ones should let his friends go, so they did. He is virtually limitless, only capping out at Father's level.

And yet even after willing to Dooku, Dooku was still able to fight on for a bit. Hyperbole is Hyperbole.

Though the notion that If Anakin was at Father level at the time. Even if he was Emotionally hindered, he still would be leagues about SIdious/Yoda.

Not true. The moment Anakin decides, Dooku's hand comes off.

The Son and Daughter were in the same place though. And Anakin gets stomped pretty quickly by the Son later in the arc. So no it wasn't simply just about the place. It was definitely some sort of peak moment for Anakin.

He's below Father, but above Yoda and Sheev.

Father is the pinnacle of what Anakin could become, for loose reference we have Anakin amped by the Son defeating a combined team of Yoda and Palpatine in a what-if. Given Father is > Son & Daughter, which is far and away more impressive than taking on Yoda & Sheev, I think Mortakin would infact be the highest point of his career.

Many people seem to forget that Mortakin isn't beholden to the ROTS novel statement because Anakin doesn't remember the Mortis arc, none of them do. Obviously he can't be taking that into account in feeling more powerful than ever.

I'd say Anakin was almost the level of the Son by Knightfall, but quickly lost that by Mustafar once his anger fueled his fear and not the other way around.

Given more time to master, and become one with himself, he would well and truly have achieved the Father's tier.

This solidifies Sidious' perception that Vader will surpass them given time, which he should know given he's sensing Vader in danger on Mustafar. He likely says this because he can feel Vader's fear clouding his mind.

So Mustafar Vader < Yoda ~ Sidious ~ Invisible Hand Anakin < Knightfall Anakin.

Just my two cents.
