In celebration of May the 4th (Star Wars Day) I will name my top ten favorite characters in the saga. Both in cannon and in legends.
10. Ben Solo

I really did enjoy his story arc. But it did kind of feel like a rip off of Vader's story but Adam Driver did his thing.
9. Mara Jade

Honestly, she deserved better. Her entire story was just AMAZING. I love the chemistry between her and Luke. She truly deserves to be cannon. Ugh. It makes me upset she's not.
8. Padmé Amidala- Skywalker

Episode 1 sucked but her character deserved better. Her death was tragic. But she was a strong leader who had a big heart.
7. Han Solo

Smart, Sarcastic, funny and witty? Uh yes please! I am honestly a Han Solo mood all the time. They did him dirty though.
6. Chewbacca

Who doesn't want this guy as their funny sidekick? He is both caring and brave. He truly deserves to be on this list.
5. Obi Wan Kenobi

He is a tad bit over hyped but why not when you have sass and class?
4. Darth Vader

I know the more I get closer to number one the shorter I get but I am just so excited with each and every character. Darth Vader is truly a legend and is the best villain in the series. Kylo Ren? I don't know him.
3. Yoda

Yoda is da man! That's all I'm saying.
2. Anakin Skywalker

It was honestly hard to pick 2 and 1 because I get so torn but Anakin is number 2 because he's brave, funny, stupid at times and just sooooooooooooooooooooo handsome. Like Padme is a lucky lady.
And the best character in Star Wars is.........................................................
1. Princess Leia

Did you really think I'd forget to put this princess in my list? I bet you did. I just love her so much. She doesn't need to be bluntly put out there for girl power (unlike Rey even though I still like Rey but the way her story ended in her last scene was just... ugh) and she is her own character. I truly love her. Thank you, Carrie Fisher and may you rest in peace.
