Oh, that's a brilliant idea for naming the trilogies. I shall adopt it at once.

And yes, I see him as Anakin throughout the Imperial Trilogy now, too.

Luke and Leia: guiltily,I agree.*g*

Han and Leia and Anakin: fernwithy's "Father's Heart" saga which centres on Leia really plays on her similarity with Anakin, and "The Penitent" which is something she cowrote with a couple of other authors and is an AU in which Anakin stands trial after RotJ plays on the Han similarities (which shock the hell out of Han for a moment when he realizes that Darth Vader, of all the people, gets what flying means to him...). Anakin laughing when he and Obi-Wan pursue Zam because of the speed thrill, or saying "this is where the fun begins" in RotS? Definitely something Han would do as well.

And amen to the Republic Trilogy making the story, and the characters, so much deeper.
