My main issue is, is that I'm not all-around an especially forgiving person, particularly when it comes to fictional characters. Anakin crossed a line, and frankly... I really feel like he should have known better. Palpatine was a father figure? So was Obi-Wan! Would Qui-Gon have been proud of Anakin's actions? Would Shmi? Padme certainly wasn't, and Anakin went in because he couldn't bear the thought of her dying. And she died ANYWAY, because HE caused it. Palptine manipulated him, yes, but brutally slaughtering children - that was his choice.
*unhappy sigh*
I'm sorry, I'm being harsh. I just... don't like Anakin right now. :/
