Why is Anakin the Chosen one??

It just hit me. Remember Yoda saying that falling to the dark side will forever cloud your destiny? So Anakin was destined to be the first one to put the Force into balance. That means that he was the first one too actually come back from the dark side to the light. Luke later did the same with the help of Leia(EU). So that was Anakins destiny, to bring the Force to balance, to make the light the same strength as the dark, so u can change sides. Well, that's just my theory.

He's the chosen one because Neo was too busy in the Matrix and cHoSeN-oNe was too busy finishing the Academy Mod

He is probably the Chosen One because he is a light Jedi who brings balance to the Force.. he becomes Darth Vader you know...

quote from lianotte:If it helps you understand better, there's a takeout in Episode 2 (that I haven't seen, or it's not a takeout and I have to watch Episode 2 again) where Yoda and Mace Windu are having a conversation, and how the "phrophecy" is coming true.

THERE ARE TOO MANY PHROPHECIES FLOATING AROUND MATRIX AND STAR WARS AND WHATNOT!

Refering to [VLR]Kueller: You mean if it wasn't for _Vader_(Anakin) the emperor would have never been beaten. Luke did a good job by persuading him, but he could do nothing to the lightning. Just a thought... ;)

Well, she heard Luke on Bespin. Oh and Vaughn, remeber that Sidious is a grown man when we see him. And Anakin is about 6 years old. So the dark side was back BEFORE Anakin.

Refering to Lianiotte: I think she has the Force in her too! But I don't think that it is that strong. I don't remember her anywhere showing it to us :)

Leia has the Force strong in her too.

"My father has it... I have it.. and.. my sister has it."

Also this might help a bit, but I'm not sure if it will change anything.
"He was already a great pilot when I met him. I was amazed by how strong the Force was in him.."

Remember, Anakin has more midi-chlorians than Yodayodayodayoda. Spelling? ;)

um... the force was out of balance before anakin. Remember? The dark side of the force was basically gone, and it was only the light jedi. When anakin came along, and fell to the dark side, he brought the dark back 'into the light' (meanign he brought them back into power) hence balancing them out. So that one era is light, one era is dark. Balance. See?

the Force was balanced within anakin, it really has nothing to do with how many jedi are alive. its kinda like a spiritual balance. and lucas has little to do with the creative process of the books. he has said before that there is two star wars, the movies are his stories and the E.U. is just business.

Well, what's the balance then? Luke left alone as the last Jedi? No Sith? Remember, we're not talking about the EU. Oh, the books were approved by Lucas before they were published.

you really have to take the expanded universe with a grain of salt. everyone in the books goes to the darkside and then comes back. i think it really takes away from what anakin did in the movies. i think G.L. meant for anakin's redemption in ROTJ to bring balance to the force.

No, destiny can be fulfilled even 1 minute before your death, so Anakins real destiny was to bring balance. Even through becoming Darth Vader. Yoda told Luke, that it is impossible to come back to the light. But first Anakin did it, then Luke was able to come back to the light, Kyp Durron was able to come back to the light. But nobody has ever done that EARLIER. Exar Kun fell to the dark side, but he didn't return to the light, didn't he? The dark side consumed him entirely.

I think what was meant is that the light was stronger than the dark initially. anakin made the dark stong.

He brought balance because if it wasn't for him the emperor would never have been beaten!

If it helps you understand better, there's a takeout in Episode 2 (that I haven't seen, or it's not a takeout and I have to watch Episode 2 again) where Yoda and Mace Windu are having a conversation, and how the "phrophecy" is coming true.

He brought balance by having Luke. He rebuilt the jedi order. And turned his father back to the path of the lightside of the force. Even if he died shortly after.
