It was popular to think Anakin DID bring balance to the force: by killing most of the Jedi. But then Lucas immediately dispelled that theory. He never did meet a good plot turn he liked.
I always found that funny, because it was so obvious to anyone who actually watched the movies that Anakin did exactly what he was prophesied to do - it's just that the Jedi were so sure of themselves that they actually believed "balance" was an end to all Sith, instead of the Jedi being nearly wiped out.
And yeah, I'm pretty excited it's not in his hands anymore. I feel like he was obsessed with making the Jedi the good guys, and often didn't even catch on to their failures.
