Though Anakin Skywalker's fall to the dark side was undeniably heartbreaking, Kylo Ren's turn to darkness was perhaps even more tragic.
Kylo Ren’s turn to the dark side in Star Wars is even more tragic than Anakin Skywalker’s transformation into Darth Vader. The Star Wars sequel trilogy drew many parallels between Darth Vader and Kylo Ren. Not only was there an obvious family connection between them, but Kylo attempted everything in his power to emulate Vader’s nefarious legacy, and Emperor Palpatine was intricately involved in both their stories.
Darth Vader’s story is, ultimately, one of choice. Though Palpatine had a hand in his fate and pointed him in a certain direction, Anakin made his own decisions. He decided to marry Padmé Amidala in secret and pushed himself to live a double life. He chose to head to Tatooine to save his mother and slaughtered her captors without a second thought.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Kylo Ren Never Really Chose The Dark Side – It Was Forced Upon Him Even before he was born, Ben Solo’s path to the dark side was chosen for him. In Chuck Wendig's novel Aftermath: Empire's End, Ben’s mother Leia uses the Force to try and sense her son while he was still in the womb. It is during this moment that she senses an acute malevolent presence watching over her.
Even Kylo Ren's Redemption Was More Tragic Than Darth Vader's Both Darth Vader and Kylo Ren find redemption in the end. Vader’s love for his son ultimately wins the battle, and he sacrifices himself to kill the Emperor and save Luke. Ben Solo decides to abandon the darkness, helps Rey destroy Palpatine, and saves her life, surrendering the last of his power to do so. Both sacrifices were acts of love.
The redeemed Ben Solo, however, had everything still to live for. His sacrifice was noble, certainly – Rey didn’t deserve to die either. But Ben had a life ahead of him. A life filled with remorse and atonement, but also love and possibility. Instead, his death became the end of the Skywalker lineage and their place in the galaxy, and he never got to be properly reunited with his parents, either.
