Anakin and Luke Skywaker are undoubtedly two of the most powerful characters in all of star wars. This video will explore who had the potential to be the most powerful in the force as well as who actually achieved the most power.

In terms of who actually achieved the most power, at least in legends, this is very clear. Luke Skywalker in his prime was the most powerful Jedi of all time and was able to level whole armies, move black holes and walk on lava. We will be exploring the most powerful force feats of luke skywalker in an upcoming video so make sure you subscribe and turn the notification bell on for that video. Although Anakin Skywalker was powerful as both a Jedi and a Sith, he never achieved anything close to the power of Luke Skywalker.

Next we must explore the more difficult question; which Skywalker had a higher force potential. While the midi-chlorian count of Luke has never been stated, we can make an informed estimate based upon Anakin's midichlorian levels as well as the comments of the creator himself George Lucas.

So the midi-chlorian count of a force users offspring does not seem to become diluted over time as say the gene for blonde hair would over generations. In fact, many generations of Skywalkers held great power in the force, despite many of them having children with non force users. This suggests that Luke Skywalker had a similar level of Midi-chlorians to Anakin. This is backed up by the creators comments who stated that Anakins and Luke's potential in the force was equal and both very powerful.

However, as we know, ones propensity for the force does not necessarily equate to how powerful they actually become. For example, Obi-wan Kenobi had an extremely low midi-chlorian count compared to other Jedi but still managed to become one of the most powerful Jedi to ever live through sheer determination and dedication to his Jedi training.

This is also true for the dark side, at least in Palpatine's opinion. He believed that the reason Vader could not reach his full potential was due to a residual pull to the light side. Therefore the main thing holding him back was not his physical injuries but his inability to fully embrace the dark side of the force due to the regrets over his wife and all the appalling things he had done.

Palpatine came to believe that Vader was never capable of overthrowing him in line with the rule of two tradition. This is one of the main reasons the Emperor was desperate to replace Vader with Luke as he believed that Luke would be able to become far more powerful in the dark side than Vader.

Before he was encased in his suit, Anakin also had disadvantages compared to Luke Skywalker in terms of power in the light side. Whereas Luke embraced the light and was able to become the most powerful Jedi of all time, Anakin was impatient and did not fully embrace the light side.

So overall, who was the most powerful? Well in terms of midi-chlorian count and force potential, Anakin and Luke were equals. However, Anakin was limited by his personality. Due to his strong attachment to those he loved, the trauma he experienced as a slave and possibly due to his role of the chosen one, he was never able to fully embrace either the light side or the dark side, limiting his power as a sith and a jedi.

Luke on the other hand was much more single minded and stable. He was therefore able to fully the embrace the light side and unlock it's potential in a way that Anakin was unable to achieve. Maybe if Anakin had trained under Mace Windu and learned the ways of Vaapad he could have surpassed Luke in power but I believe Anakins innate pull to the dark would always hinder his power as a Jedi.

The same is true of the dark side. Vader was unable to fully embrace it and therefore limited his power, whereas a dark side Luke, at least in Palpatines opinion, held a much higher propensity for dark side power than Vader and even the Emperor himself.
So what do you guys think? Do you agree with my rationale? Let me know down below. Thanks for watching guys and may the force be with you.
