What if Anakin WENT With Mace Windu To Fight Palpatine?

[@joshadley]

well done, I liked that you had Mace not kill Palpatine and have him arrested in front of Anakin to show that Palpatine was lying about the Jedi taking over

[@mgjmiller1995]

It has been joked about numerous times with alternate theories such as this, but: Mace: "He's too dangerous to be kept alive!" Anakin: "Cut off his arms and legs then, so he can't run or shoot force lighting or wield a lightsaber" Palpatine: "Sh*t!"

[@entertainedsheep7668]

you're severly underestimating how strong this combo would be. Kit Fisto, Mace Windu and Anakin fighting together would beat darth sidious in less than a minute.

[@chrisaizen3678]

@@elektrogamer-roblox8717 you would think the moment Palpatine started attacking them instead of going with them quietly would make anakin protect the jedi. The reason he even struck at mace in the movies was the timing he just saw mace trying to kill Palpatine not the arrest attempt beforehand.

[@AnEnemySpy456]

Originally Anakin actually did go with Mace. If you look closely during the fight, there's a shot where you can see Palpatine is holding Anakin's lightsaber. That's because he force pulled it away from Anakin and wielded it instead of his own lightsaber but George Lucas changed it afterwards.

[@superherogenius9363]

That makes sense considering when anakin told mace he should join then to confront palpatine, it seems like he says something else instead of no.

That would never happen, because Padme isn't Force sensitive, isn't afraid of losing someone she loves, frustrated with the Jedi Order, weak with controlling her emotions, etc. Palpatine wouldn't waste his time on someone not only useless to him, but also that he wouldn't be able to turn even if he did

[@purpledevilr7463]

What if Palpatine surrendered to stand trial, and just went “this is just religious persecution. Yeah I’m a Sith, but that’s not a crime” And then they can’t prove he’s been behind the separatists. Them being lead by a Sith Lord is just conjecture, and even if confirmed, it can’t be confirmed it’s Palpatine, as far as the senate knows.

[@kyleschafer6275]

I like this, rather than starting a fight Palpatine didn't resisted but just surrenders.

[@SensiofRabbitude]

I have actually seen other what ifs that had Palpatine surrender and pretty much win in that fashion. If you are smart and cunning enough to take over and control the narrative, sometimes you can even talk your way out of serious accusations, even if the other side has proof.

[@markusturunen7929]

Realistic villain would do such a thing, but I guess because of many cut scenes from revenge of the sith were politics. The designers of the movie clearly wanted more action over politics.

[@decepticonxhunter4850]

The obvious problem with this argument is that C-3P0 mentions in TROS that the Old Republic made it a crime to be a Sith, which is why protocol droids were programmed not to translate anything that was written in the Sith language. It's pretty dumb to believe that a religion that was fundamentally opposed to the existence of the Republic wouldn't be deemed a crime. Palpatine would've hung himself if he did that.

[@GoblinWizardry]

If Anakin went with Windu to arrest Palpatine, Palpatine would probably not fight back, he owned half the senate and had several contigencies in place, there a good chance he wouldn't even be convicted, or that he would escape jail, or keep sending visions to anakin of his wife's demise prombting anakin to release him, or order the death of all jedi's through order 66 through access to a communications device.

i like how you showed that mace arrested palpatine cus that was his intention. however, anakin is the chosen one so how come he didnt bring balance to the force? i believe if anakin went along with windu, he would've been angry at himself and sidious and use that anger to detain and or kill/arrest sidious while still remaining on the path of the light. anakin is so powerful that he can use his anger and harness it to his advantage as a jedi

Maul wasn't really found. He was a Dathmiri. His whole species is generally force sensitive. He was given by Talzin (his mother) to Sidious. Him being found by Yoda would have done little

[@darkglobe406]

qui gon would probably be alive and trained anakin which would result in anakin controlling his emotions much better since jinn would not keep him in the dark about the knowledge of the force and would even allow him to study jedi archives nor would he ask him to ignore his emotions . he would be a true father figure to anakin instead of palpatine installing himself in that role over the years . maul himself would change little though , he was never strong enough to fight top level jedi/sith like yoda , windu , anakin or sidious and as a jedi he would probably be even (slightly) weaker than his sith self . he would be a good addition to the jedi ranks though and may even be friends with obi-wan .

[@lancea1202]

if this happened, Anakin will see for himself that Palpatine is a Sith Lord. and arresting him will be a big win for the Jedi. Even if Order 66 is activated, the whole galaxy will stand up against troopers and i dont think the clone troopers will shoot innocent lives who are willing to protect the Jedi.

I think Anakin witnessing the killing of his fellow Jedi right in front of him; these are Jedi he bonded with through the clones wars, might have made him switch gears, to at the very least perform a Dooku like disarming of Sidious to have him arrested, no hands, no lightening.....it would be over as soon as that happened. And one of Sidious primary weapons he always used is nullified for good. He could have also force grabbed one of the dead Jedi lightsabers, now Sidious has to deal with 3 lightsabers strikes coming in at the same time, also he doesn't want to make a kill shot on Anakin, his options are super low by then to get out intact.

In most alternate stories, Anakin returns to the Jedi, the Order is saved, and the Republic never falls. I disagree with this narrative. Anakin was not simply deceived by Palpatine-he chose Palpatine. People are rarely tricked entirely against their will; they are often misled because it aligns with what they secretly desire. This is a harsh truth of life: we are frequently our own worst enemy. Not out of malice, but because we are vulnerable to our own vanity and desires.
