Mary Sue doesnt apply to antagonists

>only in TPM
FTFY

Also antagonists can't be Mary Sues. A classic action adventure film needs a powerful villain to create suspense and to give the hero something to overcome

See Hannibal Lecter

Antagonists can't be Mary Sues, this is the definition of "Mary Sue", it isn't up for debate anon.

Any character that is significantly powerful is a Mary Sue. Welcome to the new world, friend. Try to keep up.

>>64525803
Edgy angsty teenagers love to make their cool dark self inserts into fiction and villains are often Mary sues

Sorry, no. The definition doesn't change just because you want to force a meme.

Isn't he essentially a fall from grace character? How is that Mary Sue?

More "irritating brat ruins potential" character. I don't think he ever really had any grace to fall from.

Lucas fucking killed Vader with the prequels. Fight me.

Up until that fall from grace, he's a Mary Sue.

>>64525929
He's not a Mary Sue. Reyfags are just trying to call every single Star Wars character a Mary Sue to justify their new Disney Princess being written like a 10 year old's fan fiction

The whole point of the term is to highlight bad storytelling- if the protagonist can't fail, there's no tension or suspense so we don't care about them. It's perfectly fine for villains or antagonists to be seemingly all-powerful though because we (generally) don't care about their struggles or the way their character changes throughout the story.

The actual fun part of Star Wars was that imperials were super incompetent and they couldn't do the simplest task without fucking up
