I believe I read that you need to have your Padawan be a Jedi, unless you do some sort of special circumstances. Ahsoka left and so he didn't get that. All the members of the Council were normally Masters. Anakin thought that being put on the Council would make him a de facto Master and was ticked when he found they let him on the Council but denied him the rank of Master.

Also, Anakin's hatred for the Council, especially after their betrayal of Ahsoka, and how they seemed to mistrust him and stuff. The Council truly is insensitive. It's one of the reasons I'm actually glad they're making new episodes in the Saga. Because maybe Luke's Jedi Order will allow attachments and getting married and be a bit more sypathetic than Yoda's was.

As for Vader's comment in ANH to Obi-wan about having been the learner when they last met, but now being the Master. I think he was talking, not about any Jedi rank, but now that he felt he had learned enough to take over as Dark Lord of the Sith and replace Sidious. This theory is even further backed up by the fact that Obi-wan replies "Only a Master of evil Darth!"

Also, in ESB, Vader asked Luke to join him and together they would defeat the Emperor and rule the galaxy as father and son.
