Is Rey from Star Wars a Mary Sue?

What were the consecuences?

Her consequences at this time are emotional, not physical. Yes Anakin and Luke both lost a hand by the second movie. But Anakin didn't really lose much else from his actions, just went through a massive emotional roller coaster which led him to the Dark Side. In this trilogy, the 'chosen one' is on a emotional wrecking train as well. From her parents to her role or purpose to her deep emotional feelings for Han and now Kylo... as well as the distress Luke put her through due to his own f'ed up mental state. This will come to the forefront in the last movie. Like Anakin and Luke in the 3rd movie, she will be pressed to the emotional breaking point and have to make a choice. This choice will focus (my theory) on her real parentage, Kylo, dark/light, and her friends. The sad thing is, is if she had lost a hand to someone in this movie we wouldn't me making this claim. Instead we'd have another set of forum goers talking about repeat of previous movies just as we did with TFA. This movie actually breaks the mold and people still find something to complain about... as my rant above its all about individual's perceived notions of what they think SW should be vs the more rational issues with all of the movies.

 

Quick List:

- lost her parents
- lost Han (who she had a odd bond)
- lost her home
- lost emotional state
- lost who she is / mental foundation
- lost Luke's (Anakin's) lightsaber
- lost Luke

"Just"?

Because that rollercoaster to the Dark Sider is bigger than anything Rey had gone. That's for sure.
