      Depends on which lore you follow, He was groomed from very young, and I hate this, but new canon has made Sidious the one that impregnated Anis mom, with the force that is.

        Wasn’t it the opposite? Plagueis tried to corrupt the living force and create life but the force was so disgusted by him that it cut him out and created Anakin as the counter the tilt?

        Plagueis wanted to create perfect force life but was cut off. The living force was Anakin’s other procreator.

        Could be completely wrong. I saw all of this in a Sheev Talks video where I was so sure he was referencing a canon book.

              Like I don’t totally 100% hate it, it works with Plageous as well, they could do that his experiment failed and sidious further augmented the midichlorians. That line of reasoning is kinda cool, I just hate how everything seems to revolve around palpatine.

              BUT with the rule of 2, until someone replaces him or he has a new apprentice, everything kinda does have to be done by him. So kinda hemlocked by the lore in that regard.

        …Plagueis and Palpatine creating Anakin is a part of Legends continuity, not new Disney canon, as part of the Darth Plagueis novel, released in 2012. Though Acolyte does imply they’re going to also establish that in Disney canon as well.

          Comic implies he uses the force to either modify his midichlorians or implant them to begin with. Shmi was already pregnant.

            Ok, but if you can do that, can’t you feedback loop power up yourself like Goku?

              That was plageuis’ experiments were trying to figure out. He could absorb other people’s life force to replenish his. And iirc some previous siths could just take over hosts bodies too.

                How can the lore be this badass but the movies come out so bad?

      His light saber wasn’t red yet, so she didn’t.

      I’ll die on this hill.

      (The earliest I’ll give you is when he killed the younglings, I actually want Disney to do a Lucas remaster and have his saber turn red during that scene and straight up gaslight the world saying it was always like that).
