She tries to convince him even when Anakin chokes her in his anger. She asks if Anakin is all right, worrying for her love. She still has will to live, but the severe torment of Anakin's perishing wounds her mortally, and this anguish, the death of Anakin takes her life too. Just like Palpatine said: "In your anger you killed her. This is supported by the imagery of the scenes.
Anakin has gone, he died and Darth Vader has born. I know there is still". And then she dies - she falls in the moment as Darth Vader rises. She is buried on Naboo, with her hands closed on the pedant what Anakin gave to her as a love-token: indicating she died alongside with Anakin Skywalker, and the boy she knew on Tatooine and the young man she fallen love with is buried with her.
They are both dead - and this is also a painful reminder to what Anakin said when they debated their relationship: "it would destroy us. As far as I know, this explanation is actually consistent with the philosophy of Star Wars, supported by Canon material and the script, imagery and the character arcs. Of curse, like every analysis is heavily depending in our personal understanding on the movies - only George Lucas knows if I am right or I am wrong.
Thank You very much Miscellaneous Person and Octology! I see this as not a psychological change, it's the change of his soul.
His whole being was transformed by his anger and hatred. He is no longer himself. Everything what Anakin was died in him, he denied his very self, leaving it behind. He was driven by only anger and hatred. His self awakened in Return of the Jedi, so Anakin was restored. Great analysis! I really like the idea that it was Anakin that lost the will to live, not Padme. It's definitely a topic for consideration. I can even rule the universe.
They all want to be the Emperor. He loved the idea of playing a mentor or a wizard in a morality play where good and evil are so clearly defined.
Whenever I see people trying to say the Jedi are evil or whatever, I always think of these exact ten seconds of Empire of Dreams. Society6 is having a sale for these prints! Trinity by ornicar. Posts Likes Following Ask me anything Archive.
What we know? She lost the will to love. Who is Darth Vader? The Force and Love The Force is the binding unity in the Galaxy, the energy what generates life itself through Midi-chlorians, interconnecting and penetrating every single life form in it.
The force flows through all. He knows this whole thing is going to blow up into a big war. He knows a confrontation is brewing between Luke and his father.

She hung on long enough to deliver the kids and make sure they were in good hands, safer then they would be with her if she lived on anyways. Even if she had survived, she could not have raised those children, Vader would have hunted her and his children until the end of the galaxy, and you can be sure Palpatine would have as well.

She could have continued - as other brave senators did - to try to work from the 'inside' to right things. Padme never backed down from a fight before. Yes, marriage and being pregnant can change you, but it doesn't always change someone into an idiot who could run a world perfectly fine as queen at 14 years of age!!!
She isn't some 'romance heroine' who's only alive because of love. It's a stupid plotline and a very negative one against women - married and pregnant professional women in particular - and I hope it goes away. Jovieve , Apr 18, In many ways dying protecgted the children. If she lived, Vader and Palps knows the child was born and the search begins. Her death helps it look like the baby was lost, and perhaps her dying was also in part a way of protecting her kids, In fact it was.
Her living jepordazies the children's safety. I am sorry but I do not buy that her death made it possible for the children to live. Padme could have hidden just as well as Yoda and Obi-Wan.
She could have lived on Tatooine, or hid in seclusion, with a different identity on Alderaan and raised Leia at the least. She could have been a major force for the rebellion in an underground fashion. I do not think Vader would have searched for Padme and the kids, since he was told she was dead. Look at it this way, if Vader and the Emperor thought Obi-Wan and Yoda still lived, they would not have stopped until they were found and destroyed.
But they both remained hidden. So what would have been different for Padme, with the help of others. I understand the rational behind this thinking, but I think this is just excusing away what we all know in our hearts that Padme's death could have been done differently and much more noble. She should have died either from being hurt by Anakin, or due to complications from her pregnancy since the children were born prematurely anyway, of which many women experience problems.

Whether it be from disease, cancer or a mother's broken heart, I do believe willing oneself to die to be very real. Here's my own little testamonial: I am 33 years old but some time ago, while still in high school, I lost the first love of my life. When it came to my feelings for this person, I was literally lost in love with this girl. Making a long story short, I couldn't be any more in love than I was.
For a while this girl was eden for me. But in a tale as old as time, her father disapproved of me and we forced apart. Forbidden to see each other again. I was so heartbroken that I lost touch with the very fabric of reality. I practically stopped eating. Stopped communicating with everyone.
I was unrecognizable to my friends, family and everyone else that knew me. My close friends drifted away from me because they did not recognize me in any sense. A life without her meant nothing to me anymore. I can remember asking what great cosmic force that ruled the galaxy out there to just take my life and be done with me. And then I fell asleep. I woke up the next morning and found that I had but the smallest amount of my will to pull myself back into the world of the living.
I sincerely think that what kept me from dying was at that moment where I tried to will myself to die, there was a small spark of life deep within me that refused to give in.
Aside from this, I had no more will. And now here I am two years after my divorce. A year and a half after my mother's sudden death. And my father's impending death and I find my will to live never fully returned to me all those years ago when I lost my first love.
And even though my wife and I talk often, I find the old life I used to have unrecognizable and foreign. I find what life I lead now a bizarre daydream compared to that life I used to own. There have been many times I have found myself once again in that dark chasm of depression that caused me to will my life away a long time ago.
I think of suicide often. But despite this darkness all around me, I feel a will within me that refuses to give up on me. It is hard contiuing to live in the haze and confusion that my divorce, mother's and child's death has left me. Now I have to fight to rebuild my life at a pivotal time where I have nearly no will left to live my life.
I feel like I have lost everything that I used to recognize. That seemed real to me. Everything that I have poured my heart and soul into. By his own admission, Palpatine learned everything his master knew, and killed him only after he could acquire nothing more. Thus, she died as he was reborn as Darth Vader. When he rose in the black suit, Darth Vader was an entirely new persona for the being inside. But wait—none of this is part of the film!
I am reading into it a little bit! I am making conclusions! Yes, exactly. The brilliance of this film is making you think deeply about the nature of the Force. Even while battling Yoda, Palpatine can feel something is wrong with Anakin all the way out on Mustafar. On this day, the Emperor is at the height of his power. The dark side is strongest, completely blinding the Jedi, who are effectively fighting against a rising tide. Palpatine is having the best day of his entire life.
Darth Vader rises disoriented from the excruciating ordeal he has just been through. He was set aflame, only to be reconstructed in a torturous procedure. It is no mere coincidence she died at the precise time the procedure was over. He is worried about this person he means to possess, and fears the worst.
The evidence is there. Anakin felt that she was alive, and then could not. Palpatine smiles in satisfaction. And here lies is the most damning evidence in support of my case—the one irrefutable fact no one can deny….
Palpatine was pretty busy in the events following his duel: he picked up Anakin and rebuilt him. There would be no news of it so suddenly; it had only happened seconds before he told the news to Anakin. She had to die—right then—or else Vader would never truly be committed to the Emperor.
Once this deciding piece of evidence is given away by the film, the rest of the details previously shown to you all fall into place.
