I think TCW messed with Anakin, to me, taking away the rawness of the character and vulnerability, and leaning more into a generic jockey like hero character, and emotionally hindering the character.

That all being said. Personality, in basics, Anakin in TCW I don’t think is written much differently in TCW than how he is during the speeder chase in AOTC and in the for the most part first half of ROTS. So, from both angles, new things and similarities to the movies, I don’t think Anakin is given much that’s better constructed. Moreso, to me, some things are more given more time to them, maybe?
