People seem to think Mace is good to blame for Anakin's fall, I for one see absolutely no logic in this..
Was it because Mace didn't recognize Anakin as a jedi master? Was it because Mace wanted to finish the biggest threat to the galaxy of that time?
What the hell is wrong with that? It was clear Anakin wasn't near to a jedi master in a longshot, even in the OT he is calmer than in the PT, Anakin his arrogance proved to be his downfall, this would have never happened to a true master.
It was just an ego thing for Anakin needing the title of master.
As for mace dealing with Sidious, there was no other option than to finish Sids. There is no capturing possible with a man who can release lightning from his fingers at will.
Dude, it was Jabba's fault. He tried to kill Luke making Anakin go back in time, to turn to the dark side to try to save him because Palpatine told him that the dark side could. 😛 😛 😛
In all seriousness, I think it was the council's fault. They should've ejected Anakin from the order ones he started getting too out of hand.

Hey Everyone. This Thread is going to be talking about the Prophecy about Anakin. I personally think it was Mace's fault for Anakin turning to the Dark Side. If he had given more trust to Anakin and sent him instead of Obi-Wan then
1. Sidious would be dead
2. Anakin wouldn't be a Sith.Also the council should have made Anakin a Jedi Master.
Any comments?
If Anakin got sent instead of Obi-wan, they wouldn'y have found out about Sidious being the sith lord.
Maces Fault... if he hadnt stood around talking "Its Over YOU have LOST" and just brought his lightsaber on the little old punk then Anakin would have Walked onto a scene with mace standing over a dead Palpatine sure maybe he would be pissed but palpatines Death Star wouldnt have come, the Empire wouldn't of happend the jedi would still be alive the annialation (i think thats right) of the sith would be complete. AND PADME WOULD STILL BE ALIVE!!!! Thus anakin wouldn't have turned and luke and leia would be skilled jedi knights and everybody is happy. Heh.. sucks that lucas made the last 3 movies first doesn't it.

I agree with everyone about the Council and more so Yoda. Anakin was a basketcase waiting to happen and Yoda knew that he could come back to hurt them. Yoda also felt warnings in the force that the dark side was cloudling everything, but only at the end did they figure it out. If he got up off his ass in Episode II and did some real work, the galaxy would have been saved. Too much time talking to Mace and letting Obi Wan do all his dirty work.
Why the hell would it be the councils fault? Anakin should have prayed to Allah that he was already allowed to be trained a jedi, that he was allowed in the council although far from ready and he was even married!!
What the hell should Yoda and the whole council do next to please this former slave boy? Make him king of the galaxy because otherwise he would cry and kill his wife? Puuuulease..
This cat was a spoiled brat and should have kept his whining mouth closed.

Listen to this divine statement, people, and stop blaming every Tom, Dick, and Harry for Anakin going bad. It's not like he's a fruit that needs to be kept safe in a freezer and Mace Windu left it open when he went to grab a forty.
