After defeating Darth Vader in the Obi-Wan Kenobi finale, Obi-Wan broke down and began tearing up when he saw Anakin's scars. It was the first time he had seen Anakin's face since leaving him to burn on Mustafar, and so he apologized for everything that had happened.
Obi-Wan's guilt over failing Anakin is what drives his character to watch over Luke Skywalker on Tatooine. In a way, keeping Luke safe and then teaching him the ways of the Force is Obi-Wan's way of getting redemption. He feels terrible for failing Anakin, because he believes he robbed Luke from having a father figure.
Anakin Skywalker ultimately ended up hating Obi-Wan Kenobi for many misguided reasons, but Darth Vader's subconscious response to the Jedi's final declaration of love in the Star Wars prequels shows the real reason he could never forgive him.
David Porter provides some great philosophical context to why Obi-Wan would not regret leaving Anakin alive, as it was obviously “the will of the Force” that Obi-Wan be unable to finish him off, and “the will of the Force” that Anakin live on to kill Sidious himself in the future.
He couldn't bring himself to kill Darth Vader, however, because he continues to associate him with the Anakin he trained as a boy. This is also the exact reason why Obi-Wan didn't kill Anakin on Mustafar despite the opportunity a decade earlier in Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith.
Obi-Wan only believed Anakin could be saved when Luke did on Endor. So, at that moment on Mustafar, Obi-Wan should have finished Anakin, but he didn't have the courage to do it because ironically he had an attachment to Anakin.
Skywalker ever regret becoming Darth Vader yes he did. if you read the end of the novelization. for Revenge of the Sith. Anakin is angry and depressed over his decisions.
In the annals of Star Wars history, many believe Obi-Wan Kenobi was the key to saving Anakin Skywalker's soul before his fall as Darth Vader. However, as Kenobi's recent Disney+ series showed, that was never really the case. Anakin lost himself to the Dark Side way before Obi-Wan's intervention.
The fact that Anakin was redeemed and finally fulfilled the prophecy made him a hero. As a Jedi Anakin sacrificed himself to save his son and restore freedom to the galaxy. That is why I believe he was forgiven by Yoda and Obi-Wan.
Darth Vader hates Obi-Wan, not because he blames him for his fall to the Dark Side, but because he turned Padmé against him and destroyed his body. The line from Obi-Wan Kenobi, "I am what you made me" isn't a reference to Vader's fall to the dark side.
The canonical comic Star Wars: Darth Vader #7 confirms the younglings' deaths caused Anakin grief, self-loathing, hatred and pain, fueling his descent even further into the dark side.
At most, they would scold him for his behavior. The Jedi Council was too passive when it came to Anakin's education, and it fostered a toxic relationship with him. He knew that they did not trust or approve of him, and as a result, he lost trust in the Council.
This fell in line with various fan theories and non-canon novelizations that suggested Obi-Wan and Padmé had an affair sometime during the Clone Wars. In the Star Wars prequel movies, Obi-Wan often has a duty to protect Padmé, but there was never any sense of romantic feelings.
Kenobi bested Anakin, severing his limbs, and leaving him to die, burning on the shores of a lava river. Darth Sidious recovered Anakin's broken body and returned with him to Coruscant. Medical droids rebuilt Anakin with cybernetic parts, encasing him in dark armor to complete his transformation into Darth Vader.
Palpatine may still have eventually traded Dooku in for a newer apprentice, but nothing would have hindered his rise to power. Had Qui-Gon trained Anakin and kept him far from Palpatine, Anakin might have eventually died in the Clone Wars and been completely unable to fulfill any Chosen One prophecies.
However, when it comes to who Darth Vader hates more than anyone in the Star Wars galaxy, himself and Obi-Wan Kenobi don't hold a candle to the true point of Darth Vader's hatred, Emperor Palpatine.
Anakin does not have even the slightest bit of remorse. By the end, he feels nothing but anger. Although he feels regret for killing Padme, he still helps the evil Emperor. The film ends with Anakins standing side by side with the man on whose behalf he has committed all his crimes.
Well, come Mike Chen's Star Wars: Brotherhood, fans got insight into all the verbal jousting, including the Jedi Anakin hated most, which surprisingly wasn't Obi-Wan Kenobi. Anakin hated none other than Mace Windu, who was immortalized in the prequels by Samuel L.
Kylo and Rey (Daisy Ridley) also blasted the Imperial Crusier open trying to Force pull the Lightsaber away from each other, so clearly, Kylo Ren is an extremely strong Force-wielder. Nonetheless, it can be said that Darth Vader is the more powerful master of the Force for one key reason: his temperament.
Yoda's presence on Dagobah was likely hidden due to his mastery of Force Stealth and the planet's connection to the Force. Yoda, with his enhanced Force abilities and potential home-field advantage, would have had the upper hand against Darth Vader if they engaged in a lightsaber duel.
The realistic answer seems to be, yes, Anakin in his prime could have defeated Luke Skywalker (in the current canon) if they battled one-on-one. The main reason behind this is Luke's lack of formal Jedi training, at least when it comes to combat.
Moments later, Vader confronts him, and they engage in a lightsaber duel. Obi-Wan uses the duel to distract Vader as Luke, Leia, Han, and Chewbacca escape to the Falcon. Obi-Wan allows Vader to strike him down, and his body mysteriously vanishes the moment he dies.
