Obiwan let anakin win.
Anakin was 1-1 against count chocula, he killed a bunch of kids who thought he was their buddy, he killed obiwan who let him win, and then he killed the emperor, who thought anakin was his buddy, and while he was electrocuting someone else.
Obiwan's wins were all very decisive. He may not have been the best guy out there, but he was the go-to guy for the jedi council. Any time something important needed to be done, he was the guy they called. And they intentionally created gay missions to keep anakin out of the way.
Jedi master: Hey obi-wan, how about you go kill general grevous?
Anakin: do you want me to help?
Jedi master: no, we have a really important mission for you. We need you to go kick it with the emperor. I think he's going to the opera tonight. Stay close to him, and whatever you do, don't go on this mission wth obiwan.
Anakin: for reals?
Obiwan: yeah man, this is such an important mission. Go hang out with the emperor, and tell me all about the opera when I get back from killing these bad guys. I've been meaning to catch this one myself while its in town, but I'm always off on missions.
Anakin: oh ok
Good grief. I salute you.
Yeah, he got me there.....almost. Conversation that actually occurred in the council:
Mace: Yo, who you want to send out to get Grevious.
Yoda: Easy. Obi Wan.
Mace: What?!?!? He basically passed out against Dooku again.
Yoda: Exactly. Look, Grevious, is not the prize here. He's not the sith lord, we know that much. Why send our most prized pupil when we can send a pawn like Obi Won. Plus, all his questions are starting to annoy me. Plus his nice guy act isn't fooling me. The jedi chick with the rack said he tried to hit on her at the 146th annual Jedi/Padwan picnic.
Mace: That chick did have a nice rack. You know I used to hit that sh!t back in the day.
Yoda: And you think I haven't? Why do you think she's so green. Anyways, call Obi-wan will ya. And send Padme over here.
Except what I said was basically how it went down in the movie. You are implying things that weren't there.
They didn't even know that the emperor was the sith lord. When they found out...
Anakin: Hey master windu, I have some bad news. The emperor is the sith lord we've been looking for.
Windu: No shit?
Anakin: Yeah. You're going to need my help if you're going to arrest him... right?
Windu: Um, why don't you just hang back here. I'll take these three spares with me instead.
Anakin: Dude I'm the chosen one.
Windu: There is much confusion in you, young skywalker. But one thing there is no confusion about is how you can take a beating. Just hang back. I'll call you if I need you. Don't call me. I'll call you. Got it?
So then what does he do? He shows up just in time to screw everything up. He could have fulfilled George's idiotic prophecy without even doing anything. Windu handled the emperor, in one of the most one-sided lightsaber fights in all of the prequel trilogy. He's about to cut the emperor's head off, and in jumps Anakin for the cheap shot. So Anakin is trying as hard as he can to keep his own prophecy from being fulfilled. And why? Because the emperor is offering him an extremely sketchy solution to a problem that came to Anakin in one of his gay dreams. Not even a real problem.
So other than count doku, Anakin doesn't beat anybody in a fair fight who doesn't let him win, with the exception of Luke, who hadn't even graduated from Jedi kindergarten yet. You see in the prequels how extensive Jedi training is. These guys start when they're kids, and they don't get to go off on their own until they're grown ass men. But Luke went after Vader after he had been training for like a week.
Then in the next movie, Luke goes back to finish his training, and Yoda freaking dies. So Luke I guess finished everything up with correspondence courses with the university of phoenix? He rolls on back to the death star, LETS VADER CAPTURE HIM (do you see a trend here?), and then spanks his ass raw in front of the emperor.
So what does Vader do? He changes sides again and gets in another cheap shot victory. But oh shit darth, your body is a robot (courtesy of obiwan f-ing kenobi), so you get hit with this lightning and you're toast.
What do you think would have happened if he had survived the emperor's lightning? Princess Leia would have showed up and kicked his ass. Father or not, that asshole abandoned her when she was a baby, and the next time they meet, he blows up her effing home planet. Then he freezes her boyfriend, and pimps her out to Jabba the Hut. She would have killed his ass.
