Do you guys think that he will eventually take up the mantle of "Darth" and become a sith lord by this episode,. or do you see him remaining a "Knight of Ren" Throughout the entire trilogy?
I actually think Kyo will till episode IX become actual good guy and fight on Light side against Rey. It would be poetic giving they were on different sides in episode VII.
This is my prediction. Rey will be the one who will strike and kill Luke, and Rey will become Snoke's apprentice. Kylo will will be the one who brings balance to the Force at the end.

This thread may have to be re-titled soon.
now that Kylo is the Supreme Leader!
He's still not a Sith. In fact his whole MO now is to put an end to the Sith and everything else.
He is in everything but name. I actually like the idea of not bringing back the Sith so as not to undermine Vader's sacrifice, but they should have come up with villains who are new and distinct. As it is, it still undermines Vader's sacrifice, even if they don't call them Sith.
Maybe without the Sith they don't have to worry about the whole 'rule of two' master/apprentice thing anymore and it will be the Knights of Ren, which will be a group of dark-siders led by Kylo. They could go against Rey and what ever group she forms now with Force-sensitive recruits, since she is not a Jedi Master, maybe the light side group will be different than before?
The term Dark Jedi is like the term grey Jedi. It's oxymoronic. A darkside user isn't a Jedi. They stop being a Jedi when the fall to the darkside and abandon the ways of the Jedi and the lightside of the Force.
