@tomebasic2843 Kinda but not really.
For the untrained eye he might come as Mary Sueish.
If you look carefully you'll notice that Anakin did race before, the problem being that not only he lost every time, but he also crashed all those times.
Mary Sues don't fail.
Another thing was the fighter scene, he was taught the controls of a ship when he left his planet. The ship pilot even stated Anakin was a fast learner.
If he was a Mary Sue, he'd be able to fly the fighter without instructions, kill more enemy fighers than, well zero, and wouldn't be shot.
Anakin didn't do much in the fighter. All he did was a turn, a spin, got shot and crashed on the battleship hangar.
And those were his accomplishments: won a pod race and fired the torpedoes accidentally.
He was a prodigy child, those exist, my cousin was one of them. Anakin was also a child, children don't make many enemies, but he did have one: Sebulba. Aside from that finding someone to hate a child would be dumb.
Who would hate a child?
Is kid Anakin a Mary Sue? Not really.
But I can see where it comes from.
