Not sure how to reconcile Anakin being a near-equal of Dooku's by S4 and still being that in S6/DD/RotS when he's supposed to have grown vastly. Either Dooku's grown also or it's just inconsistent.
Nah, seems more likely that the simple and direct relaying of facts as prescribed by a variety of sources got you triggered. Anyway, you have no business calling anybody out for their wanking, lol. Then again, the vast majority of this forum doesn't.
Regardless, you're aware that my dilemma is not a result of how high Anakin is, but based on him performing similarly against Dooku despite supposedly improving, right? So reducing Anakin does nothing to alleviate that. Either he overperformed in his early fights against Dooku, underperformed against Dooku in his later fights, Dooku improved, or it's just inconsistent.

You're referring to the numerous accolades you chose to side with contradicted by the numerous other accolades others chose to side with? Not quite, my friend. I couldn't care less which contradicted source you chose to side with. I care about your lack of consistency.
I only wank the underrated. Can't say the same for you or most of the rest of this forum simply trying to push your already overrated characters further into glory.
Perhaps you're simply, oh I don't know, overrating his performance due to inherent bias coming about from the constant forum wank of the character? Nah, that couldn't be it.

The second naboo fight's the outlier if anything. The first naboo fight had dooklu disarming anakin in short order, the season 6 fight also has dooku well above anakin. and dd has them stalemating despite it being months after the season 4 fight
We cold reconcile it by saying that anakin was fighting better than usual because palp was in danger which may have pushed anakin to draw on his anger
Is this referring to anakin being a yoda/sidious level fighter? Because there is literally nothing a that contradicts that. TCW showings don't mean anything for your argument because anakin was factually "vastly pre prime" at that point.
Contradicted by what numerous other accolades? Almost nothing about him in TCW or during TCW is going to be applicable to him during Knightfall, which is the version of Anakin that I assume you're talking about.
Nah, I "wank" plenty of underrated characters as well — Grievous, Leia, Exile, Tenebrous, Jaina, Baras etc. Anakin's underrated as **** too, since plenty of the people other than the "wankers" have him as some dumb sub-Obi-Wan brute who couldn't counter a youngling's Force Push. So by your logic, it'd be "justified".
Inherent bias coming from taking facts at face value? Yes, it is.
