Mace - we grant you the rank of master but we don’t have enough chairs

Anakin - what how can you do this this is outrageous it’s unfair how can I be a master and not have a chair

Mace - take a seat Master Skywalker oh wait you can’t

[captaintitus]

If anakin realized that the chancellor knowing a SITH legend was sus and told the council like he should have

[itsyeetorbeyeeted]

Mace: "You are on this council and since it's your birthday we grant you the rank of Master."

Anakin: "Wha-oh, thank you, Master Windu."

Mace: "Take a treat, young Skywalker."

[bobafett]

This is something I think should have happened, the council should have given him the rank, he deserved it for everything he did in the clone wars. Great fan theory!

The whole genocide of the jedi could have been avoided if Mace just added a few more words to what he says to Ani.
"You are on thic council, but we do not grant you the rank of master... Not because of your skill Skywalker, but because of your experience. You are stronger in the Force than most of us here. However we all have more experience with the Force, and the Wisdom gained from life, that you currently lack."
It could have been as simple as that.
Them guiding Anikin into his role as a true Master.

In Episode 1, Anakin dreamed he became a Jedi. What if he kept his promise and when he became a Jedi Knight, he freed all the slaves?

[dawgsrule]

This was BEAUTIFUL! I like how just a small detail in the Dooku fight changed Anakins path towards the Light and Jedi here! No whispering and getting into his ear as Palpatine usually does instead Anakin focuses in the Archives and doing GOOD Force Healing for the win!

Man we really need a Star wars. What if series?. It could be some of the greatest Star wars stories ever told

[kensosaramos]

12:40 Are we just going to ignore the fact that Anakin straight-up confessed having a wife to Windu?? 😂😂

[dianesinger]

that was a great story I loved the part where Anakin learned force heal and was able to take on Palpatine and survive. I glad despite his injuries he had a happy ending.

[KaiHung-wvul]

Great story, however I think that Papatine would've used the lightning as a distraction to escape his office and activate Order 66 as he probably knew he can't turn Anakin at this point.

[lightweaver]

I am glad for Anakin in this version but one thing I never understood why it had to be Anakin rather than just through him. Healing is restricted because it can be dangerous, and probably because the republic feared it. But if healers would know it. He could request she give birth at the temple because they were known to be close. If not that they monitor her.

[darthhauler]

I think this just became my favorite fanfic.

[clarity]

I think it was good. One minor issue I have. Palpatine was using the darkside to forsee the future as well as manipulate it. If things didn't go as they should have and he was given rank of master, Palpatine would have noticed he can't get a hold of Anakin and see if something changed in his would have clearly been the case. Which would mean he would have needed another temporary servant at the very least incase he could not turn Anakin. Barriss would be a prime candidate for that. He could have pardoned and released her if she served him in the dark side, which she gladly would have. Another option was to go to the Jedi prison and attack that to get a quick servant for the dark side. Even if they were to be used as temporary pawns until he could get his plans back into balance, I can see him making similar moves. It doesn't mean he'll succeed, but if Anakin was no longer practically a sure thing (and the force would show him his chances have waned), he wouldn't be so stupid to try and do this alone without a backup. He's not that dumb.

This was a brilliant 'What If?' Extremely balanced with the reactions and powers of each force user. Loved it.

[Robert-hzbj]

I always thought it was weird they made such an issue with granting him the title. I'm surprised Mace or Yoda wasn't like "Okay, we don't like this whole thing, but we realize you didn't ask for it. Also, despite the weird ass circumstances, you have contributed a great deal to the Republic and the Order over the years. So, we grant you the title on a provisional basis, pending all this shit being sorted out properly"...

[onswjtj]

The really tragic part of all this is that if he hadn’t have been so impulsive, power hungry, egotistical and reckless and actually listened to obi wan whilst practising like he did, he would have probably have kept padme and her affections, and followed the Jedi rules and been honest he would have had his family but yes would have been scolded by the Jedi council, if he had of just told the council he would have had appreciation he wanted and he would have eventually proved himself a true Jedi with all the knowledge he wanted if he stayed to the light and he would have been a master eventually as obi wan said

Regarding Anakin's learning and use of Force Healing here... I think that Anakin should have discovered Dark Transfer, instead. In Legends, Anakin's distant descendant, Cade Skywalker (who was born probably around 100 ABY) learned this power, which was an extremely rare and more powerful variant of Force Healing that could be used by Light and Dark Side users. But unlike Force Healing, Dark Transfer is used to bring a person back from near-death, or in some cases, from death. Cade Skywalker discovered this power when he was nearly killed by Darth Krayt, bringing himself back from the brink of death. I think Anakin, being the chosen one, could do the same, allowing himself to live, as well as save everyone else.

As for future events that could happen in this version of events:
- Even with Dooku and Palpatine dead, the other leaders of the CIS were not executed by the fallen Anakin, so they could still be causing at least *some* trouble.

- Order 66 (or the inhibitor chips in general). Even with Palpatine dead, those chips are still in the Clones' heads and are fully functional. What if another Supreme Chancellor were to try and issue it in the future? After all, the Executive Orders programmed into the chips *are* public (ie. not hidden/secret) knowledge.

- Mandalore: Without the Republic-turned-Empire occupying Mandalore, the Mandalorian people were never divided into being for or against the Empire, and as such likely remained united under the rule of Bo-Katan Kryze and her New Mandalorian faction. But the remnants of Pre Vizsla and Maul's Death Watch are still out there. And if Order 66 never happened, then Maul would have been successfully captured by Ahsoka and the 332nd Division, and Maul's loyalists would try to free him from the Jedi's custody as they did in the original timeline when Sidious imprisoned Maul in the Spire Prison.

- Boba Fett: Boba is definitely still out there, becoming the most dangerous man in the galaxy. He's still going to want revenge, especially if Mace Windu is still alive.

Also another what-if?: What if Anakin had been dispatched to the Siege of Mandalore and defeated Maul (the current Mand'alor) in single combat and took the Darksaber? I think it'd be pretty cool for Anakin to wield a LIGHTsaber and the DARKsaber, being the chosen one, embodiment of light and dark and all that. And it'd be cool for a Jedi to wield it again.

No matter what timeline, Anakin always ends up with that breathing problem

[benjaminparker]

What If Mace Windu and Obi-Wan were sent to Mandalore to fight Maul and Anakin and Ahsoka went to rescue the Chancellor above Coruscant
