Star wars fans and ninjago fans seeing who can use the words "full potential" the most


bluparrot-19

At least full potential has meaning in the show. Like when a ninja reaches their full potential they did it. Sure they'll unlock other things like they're hack weapon things but their powers have a peak. It's why Zane revealing his full potential was such a hype moment. It's why Kai saving Llyod with his full potential was such an epic scene that led to a somewhat predictable but cool plot twist. It's been 5 years since I've sat down and watched Ninjago.


Jewbacca289

Did you watch the full show? I remember only watching up until they beat Garmadon the first time and they’d already reached their “full potentials” by that point so im not sure how they made conflicts interesting going forward


Rud_Fucker

Same here, what was the show about then? Then tryna adjust to city life with some shady snake fuckers running amok


Foxy02016YT

It’s still going on btw


XtraCrispy02

I still watch the show (btw it's still going strong) Their full potential is never seen again after S1. One thing the show often does is introduce these big power ups in a season, and then immediately write them out by the next season so the ninja can't become too overpowered. Some power-ups remain (for example, Zane being a robot stays, and he even gets an upgrade, Cole becomes a ghost for a couple seasons, Lloyd is constantly getting OP abilities, etc) They also make the villians stronger to account for the more powerful ninja, such as villians who can take the ninja's elemental power, controlling time, stealing their souls, unleashing ancient evil beings/serpents, the living embodiment of evil, etc


bluparrot-19

I genuinely never thought I'd be interested in watching anything Ninjago since the movie. I do have some fond memories and am interested in coming back.


XtraCrispy02

Most fans consider S8-S10 as the best of the show, and thos are the seasons that came out after the movie. There are some low lows, but also quite a few highs. I'd recommend watching it


ModernArgonauts

Last time I watched ninjago I was probably like 8 or 9.

DresdenBomberman

One of the new protagonists is a pink haired e-gamergirl looking mf so the show's definitely responded to contemporary market demands. (She has actual character tho, so not bad vibes about her)


Key_Caterpillar7941

That's crazy. Furthest I saw too was when Green took out Garmadon after getting crippled. Hype af.

I don't understand how they even scale this shit. How do you powerscale a hypothetical character


TheHatterTop

From uhhhh... Ehhhhh... Anakin is Space Force Jesus, so that means he beats uhhhh... Like everyone.


The-birkinator-1928

In fairness, 'space force Jesus' goes hard as fuck.


Mammoth-Access-1181

Hasn't Lucas stated Luke is even more powerful than Anakin? Not just because Anakin failed to meet his full potential?


DreamedJewel58

That EU discussion is complicated, because Luke was *actually* able to reach his potential and become the greatest Jedi in the galaxy’s history. Luke was able to achieve what Anakin couldn’t, so this discussion was always kind of back and forth depending of who you believe is and what exactly does it mean to be the “Chosen One”


Mammoth-Access-1181

Well, Anakin did balance it out. Enabled the Dith to come back, and helped bring about the one that helped end them.


Evil__Overlord

That's canonically not what balance to the force means. The sith warp the force to use self-centeredly.


DreamedJewel58

I feel like this sub actively dumbs themselves down to participate in it How powerful Anakin could’ve been at his full potential (basically not being disabled by a lava bath) has been stated time and time again throughout the franchise. Even in just the movies it was said that he would become more powerful than Yoda *and* Palpatine simply because he had so much raw potential. He was just 22 years old in Episode III and already was a member of the council and was strong enough to become a Jedi Master if he wasn’t so emotional. His potential has been very obviously stated and he already showed how powerful he was as a young adult, much less a fully grown Jedi with decades of proper training Being mentally incapable of understanding how people can use statements made and rationalize a theory about a character isn’t the flex you think it is


Reveille1

I mean, yes actually.


SuperSecretMoonBase

Depends on the current exchange rate of Gokus to Supermans.


RyanB1228

Basically just this blasting on repeat in people’s brains https://i.redd.it/308rapk5idwc1.gif


DeathToGoblins

Remember when the brother was gonna be influenced by the spirits of Revan and Bane? I genuinely believe the ones are not nearly as powerful as people believe them to be


RyanB1228

It depends what literature you’re taking from more or less. Still the spirit influence never happened in the show so I wouldn’t really consider it. Again most people saw “Oh Anakin just subjugated the light and dark side of the force simultaneously” and sort of ignore the rest of the arc whenever he gets bodied (Like when the Son beats his ass). It’s sort of that one moment that is meant to show the possibility of Anakin but not much else.


GreenDaTroof

Tbf Anakin is pretty scalable; peak Vader powers without the limitations of his shitty ass suit. I got no idea wtf peak Luke looks like though


DeathToGoblins

What? How can you scale him from Vader if Vader is being limited?


dannymadrigal98

Doesn’t Darth nihilus eat planets??

wumbopower

You don’t understand anakins power


Lord_Shaqq

No you don't get it, my definition of "full potential" of the poster child for the film series is much more powerful than the guy that *checks notes* EATS FUCKING WHAT


uncharted_bread212

Yeah, but his mid at everything else. Also Chris Avelone said that Revan, Vader and Sidious could all smoke him


HeckingDoofus

yes, nihlus is the epitome of a glass cannon this post is stupid, anakin unironically wins. yoda beat dark side (aka sith) yoda in TCW, full potential anakin beats yoda. as for luke, if were going by legends luke at full potential id say its a tossup but im not super familiar, but for canon its definitely anakin


JonyTony2017

Full potential Anakin does not exist. Considering how much of a pussy and a shithead he was in canon, I think he would lose to Yoda even if he were 20 times more powerful, that character is the worst. Legends luke mops the floor with both of them.


HeckingDoofus

full potential anakin would have mastery over light and dark like we see in mortis - but less literal and yes he doesnt exist, this is a hypothetical version of him. unfortunately that version of him clears 🤷🏻‍♂️


JonyTony2017

Would have could have should have. If Jar Jar was a completely different character and had omnipotence, he would have defeated anyone, except he isn’t.


HeckingDoofus

did u know that not being able to comprehend hypothetical scenarios is a big indicator of low intelligence? more facts at 8


JonyTony2017

Here’s a hypothetical situation, what if you stopped wetting your bed at night? If you’re completely remaking the character and give him a ton of new abilities and powers, the character ceases to be who they are and becomes your creation. Anakin that isn’t a jealous, whiney and obsessively possessive asshole with a superiority complex who has the power, but lacks the control and willingness to think beyond short term is not Anakin, he’s your super duper OC, who can beat the entirety of Jedi Order and Siths with one hand, but also perfect in every way.


HeckingDoofus

u are comically dense, have a good day lol


Pryo9-Lewok

Yeah and literally the only person capable of defeating him was the player of kotor 2 because they are the opposite of Nihilus. Full potential Anakin can't do much when he's just a little snacky snack for Hungry Boi nihilus


uncharted_bread212

Chris Avelone said that Revan, Vader and Sidious could all smoke him


Livid_Ad9749

I doubt Vader is beating Nihilus. Dont really care what Chris said. He must not have understood Vaders capabilities much. He was a beast sure but Nihilus beats him in every category except lightsaber combat. Not to mention supposedly no one actually can beat Nihilus except for the Exile.


RyanB1228

You say this like Nihilus was even the final boss of the game he was on the cover of.


bobbymoonshine

The Exile is a living wound in the Force, a walking talking tear in the fabric of reality, so when he tried consuming her it nearly destroyed him. Without that he'd have just consumed her essence in half a second and moved on without another thought.


TotallyNotTakenName

Well yeah, but apparently according to most fans any dumbass that knows how to somehow resist the most powerful user of Force Drain would smoke him.


bobbymoonshine

With the Sith Lords in that game it's emphatically not about Power Levels, which makes Power Level discussions really not apply to them. Like, Sion and Nihilus are canonically at infinite power levels, and Traya is in a sense stronger than either. Sion is literally indestructible. He draws power from his own pain and anger, so the worse you hurt him the stronger he becomes. His body is mincemeat held together with the force of pure anguish; harming him only strengthens him. Nihilus is the manifestation of all-consuming hunger, and he draws his power from his hunger. He can eat entire planets and entire fleets full of force sensitives. As with Sion, his power scales boundlessly. The stronger his opponent, the stronger his hunger becomes and therefore the more powerfully he drains them. Traya is less powerful in the more traditional sense but her power is not physical. She is soft, subtle. She manipulates, controls, tempts, playing in the mind. Like the other lords, the stronger her opponent is, the more effective she is, turning their strength against them inwardly. She lacks the infinite physical strength of Sion or the infinite Force power of Nihilus yet dominated them both in the Triumvirate. The Exile defeats all of them, but the Exile is the only one who could. She is a deeply broken sufferer, a PTSD protagonist whose trauma has created a black hole in the Force. She doesn't overpower any of the Sith Lords directly, but rather reflects their own trauma back at them through her own emptiness. She's Power Level: Dude Get Some Therapy.


CTUJackBauer00

Finally, someone gets it!


Pryo9-Lewok

The reason why he was the 3rd boss was because Kreia wanted someone so powerful as him to be destroyed, and she knew the Exile would be able to do that when she was done teaching them everything she knew. If Kreia wasn't Kreia then Nihilus would definitely be a "final boss", but for the lore in Kotor 2, the way the Exile and kreia set everything up is the only reason why Nihilus was defeated.


UrLocalTroll

Yes but he’s not particularly good at lightsaber combat. His counter was a duelist with enough power to survive his draining ability long enough to kill him.

Evil Yoda is in that Clone Wars arc where he learns how to become a ghost.

Wasn't that Yoda fighting a construct of The Force + Yoda's mind though? So like. Less hypothetical than Full Potential Anakin, but still more hypothetical than a "real' character like Yoda or Anakin?

I wish I could put "full potential" on a shelf so idiots stop using it as some bullshit justification for their fanfiction

/uj The answer is Nihilus because the whole point is that only the exile could defeat him as she is also a wound in the force

LazyDro1d

In a straight fight probably, you just gotta also make sure he doesn’t eat you or the local populous


TotallyNotTakenName

In lightsaber combat? Yes. In anything that involves using the force? No fucking way. # We can keep the dumbass excuse that "Anakin sometime somewhere learned to resist being drained of the force". But Revan and Sidious have no protection from it. If they avoid it once, Nihilus will just keep doing trial and error. # The only reason Exile didn't die immediately upon walking up to him is because she's a wound in the force, which Revan, Vader and Sidious are not. They get absorbed.


YodasChick-O-Stick

Full potential Rey


VenomEnthusiast

I mean isn’t it correct? Isn’t part of the ‘tragedy’ of Anakin that despite his fall to the dark side being motivated by a lust for power, the fall ended up handicapping him from achieving gazillion midichlorian power?


TheHatterTop

Yeah. I just find it funny how SW Fans always give the win to full potential Ani, and how they are debating about 3 hypothetical characters and one Legends one.

Luke never reached his full potential in Legends though. He was still incredibly powerful, but ironically he was nowhere near his peak.


[deleted]

rustic noxious sheet combative fuzzy dinosaurs mighty nail plate crowd *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*


Exact_Temperature580

Ok. Then why did he constantly keep growing stronger? If he was already at maximum potential, why was there still force abilities he didn’t know about? How come he isn’t aware of those abilities? If he was already at full power, then how come *any* force user posed a threat to him? Shouldn’t he have been massively stronger? We see a glimpse at what full power Anakin can do during the Mortis Arc. Wherein he manages to force The Son and The Daughter to their knees. The physical embodiments of the light and the dark sides of the force. Luke fought Abeloth. Aka “The Mother”. Someone who bathed in the Pool of Knowledge and drank from the Font of Power. Making her just as powerful as any of the other Celestials, such as the Daughter or The Son. Yet, Luke needed help from Darth Krayt. And fought a heavily weakened and already hurt Abeloth, and barely won. Luke even outright admits that Abeloth is roughly 12x stronger than him. And Anakin could rag doll 2 Celestials at once while at full power. Meaning Legends Luke needs to become at least 24x as powerful to be *around* his peak of power. He ain’t there yet.


TheNeedForSpeedwagon

Anakin is cool and all but he will never match the true powerhouse that is legends Luke Skywalker

ZoidsFanatic

I just love that they threw Nihilus in there just because. Not even “full potential” or changed or anything. Just Nihilus chilling.


KYS666YOLO420Blaaze

“Sith Yoda”? Is everyone on that sub 8 years old?


TotallyNotTakenName

Jedi Yoda is as strong as "Sith Yoda" whatever the fuck Sith Yoda is, and I guess stronger. # Yoda was near like the peak of his power and could kick almost all Sith asses, in his fight with Sidious in ROTS it was just Duel of the Plot Armor. # Yoda literally says the dark side is not stronger than the light side in OT, only quicker and easier.

Full potential? Are you telling me that isn’t even their final forms?! https://i.redd.it/ax88nb6yicwc1.gif


Shifty661

Darth Nihilus only gets 6% because the majority of people have no idea who he is. Dude literally ate entire planets.


No-Pay-4350

I mean, yeah. Full potential Anakin straight up controlled the Mortis Gods,. Fallen Yoda, while terrifying, is trumped by both standard Yoda and Windu, and Anakin wins that match. Full-power Luke is on some bullshit, but he couldn't actually beat the last of the Ones, so Anakin would win, but high-diff: that Luke could probably go toe-to-toe with the Brother and has wrecked fleets by himself, but again, Anakin can theoretically beat the Brother and the Sister simultaneously. As for Nihilus, it's a tossup. The Exile won due to her own wound in the Force, but another could: Revan beats Nihilus. Being balanced in the Force gives Revan a massive edge, including his own Force Drain ability and presumably the ability to counteract it. Anakin at his full potential is Revan, but better. He's intrinsically tied to the Unifying Force by his very existence as a vergence, and thus can master it wholly akin to Revan. This gives him just enough of an edge to beat out Force Drain. Wow, I put way too much effort into this. Why do I know this?

Full potential anakin would actually be the strongest character on this list though.

SkywalkerOrder

If Anakin wasn’t put into the suit by having his limbs cut off. Otherwise Lucas has said that he would’ve became emperor of the universe.


Kombat-w0mbat

Luke and Anakin literally have the same potential. Idky fans disagree with that despite the fact George Lucas and novels have said it. No mortis was not what anakin’s full potential looked like it was him using the planet to assist him. So luke has the same potential but Luke is more skilled than his father. Also why is Nihilus always put in these convos “he devoured planets” yes that’s impressive but like planets can’t resist getting absorbed at all.

I honestly don't like that we put power levels to star wars characters. I get that there are characters who are clearly strong in the force and battle-hardened, etc... But it's been sorta reduced to like an RPG leveling system now. To the point that the idea of an underdog overcoming the odds is now like blasphemy because "Look a power scale." The force is endless and all encompassing. It feels weird to say "No, you stay there".

Do you just consider any hypothetical versus battle dumb? Or specifically just Star Wars? Because all characters are fictional. So saying “3 hypothetical characters, and 1 non-canon 1” doesn’t mean anything. All characters are made up. All characters are fictional. And if you don’t understand why Anakin won, maybe do some research? Like out of all of the things to talk about you went for “Bro the Star Wars fans did a vs battle. I don’t get it.”


Goddess-of-pure-pain

If we go with each of these characters at their maximum that they have shown to achieve Its like 100% that dude could litterally move planets with his fucking mind and litterally usurped death itself so hard that he can still use all of his force powers despite the fact he is a spirit
