There were a lot of things that I loved about Vader's portrayal in Rebels and believe me I was worried that they would screw him up completely. But at that point in his life he was pure hatred and rage, and probably at his apex in terms of power. The best thing that they did was not have him hesitate in terms of being indecisive with Ahsoka.
On top of that, brilliant job of figuring out his own lightsabre style. He was all power, and if you want everything was about protecting his control box in his armor. He was also all attack.
One complaint that other star ward fans is why didn't he look more burnt under the mask when his face was revealed. But I believe that we saw him the way Ahsoka hoped he would be, as Anakin lost.
I still expect that we're going to see this Clone Wars series end with Ahsoka on the run with Rex and him telling her that Anakin was killed by Order 66. It has to be a crushing ending with no optimism, think the end of Empire times 3,675
