I'm still at the beginning where are going over your predictions but I wanted to toss this in. While Spike did mean to get his soul back his thinking was that getting his soul would make Buffy want to be with him like Angel so it was a manipulation tactic. But how does that play out? You'll have to find out lol

HuntingSwan

I can't say much about your reaction without spoiling either way so I will just say it was a great reaction and I really enjoyed it!

Raven Dark

Say hello to my favorite villain in the Buffyverse. :D

Chess Red Eagle

I dont think I've ever seen someone connect the dots that fast as to what that was at the end giving the iconic power speech. Of course you did slay the buffy trivia so I shouldn't be that surprised lol

The interactions between Buffy and Dawn just get better and better. They're great together. Giles and I have so much in common. I also know nothing about synchronised swimming. So Buffy burned down the gym at her first high school, and blew up the entire second one - what do you think she'll do this time?

The Giles+ Willow scenes were filmed at Anthony Stewart Head's house in Somerset, England. That's also his horse.

I grew up just between Westbury and Bath (ASH lives just outside Bath) and when this aired I was teaching in China. I downloaded it using Kazaa (it took about 3 days ), and when I finally got to see it I had the excitement that is this episode of Buffy and I got to see home. So much joy! Ok, reminiscing over. Loved all the Willow/Giles' scenes 😍😍😍

Damn, Lexi! No flies on you, girl! 😄 Great reaction, as always. Thanks for sharing with us! ❤

Gosh, I often forget that English isn't your first language since yours is excellent. Yep, it's "spiffy" :)

I don't think that Spike went to get his soul with the objective of making Buffy love him... I'm sure you're not the only one who interprets it that way, but I saw it more as, he wanted to change himself in a way where he would never hurt her again. Vampirism in this show is often a metaphor for drug dependency or alcoholism, so I would interpret his choice to get a soul as checking himself into rehab and getting sober after having hurt Buffy while "drunk". He hit bottom and started to actually work to improve himself, with the battles he went through in the cave kind of representing detox. Anyway, I'm sure there are multiple different ways of understanding it. ETA: OMG you have amazing memory! ETA2: Also, the girl Dawn finds hiding in the bathroom, her name is Kit. Might be short for Kathrine.

I think that in America they split high school into two parts: junior high & high school. So Dawn has been at junior high & now she starts proper high school for what (I think) is 4 years (could be 3, not 100% sure). In the UK we just call the whole 7 years from 11-18 "secondary school" anyway so I'm always a little confused with US high school stuff :D

Phoenix Dawn

That's my favourite ending to a Buffy episode! It is sooo friggen good and I am so glad they managed to get everyone back for that scene!

Phoenix Dawn

And it is kind of amazing how quickly you recognised this villain lol!!!

YOU’RE SMART. and btw, SEASON 7 of BTVS is my FAVORITE SEASON of television of ANY television show EVER to exist!!!!!! It is so fucking creative, different, world changing… it blows my mind every time I watch it. I hope you love it as much as I do!!!

I feel compelled to completely disagree with what you’ve been told and now think. I’ve watched this show in real time then on repeat at least 25 times and now follow and Patreon to like everyone who’s watching or has watched - the question is valid: did spike know what he was getting? And the answer is a clear and utter NO. He was there for his chip, the demon didn’t like him and berated him, then tricked him. Watching those scenes as many times as I have spikes wish was clear “Make me what I was. So she gets what she deserves”. As for Warren - I genuinely believe he is the single worst big bad of all of them, evil wise. Season 6 focussed on the trauma of humanity and living, downplayed and made funny eps out of magic and demons until the fun was too much and addiction was the clear parallel. Warrens story from s5 was misogynist incel shiz and in series where simple humans were the baddie, ge grew more and more evil and reckless. His character if written now would be Andrew tate. That’s evil af lol

I love that season 2 is still your favorite season, Lexi. Even after all these years, season 2 is still my favorite as well. After many rewatches, the placements of other seasons have moved around a bit, but season 2 still claims that top spot. :) I'm not surprised at all that your least favorite episode from season 6 was Seeing Red. For me though, my least favorite from that season is Hell's Bells. I often skip that one on rewatches. It's so funny how you were talking about Buffy Bot being the final shot in the last credits, and now in this season's credits the final shot isn't exactly Buffy either. haha The scene between Buffy and Principal Wood when he says, "Oh my God, your dogs are dead?" kills me every time. His delivery of that line is just so funny to me. Another line I find funny is when Spike is telling Buffy to duck and she says, "Duck? There's a duck?" LOL The last scene of this episode is one of my all time favorite scenes in the entire show. The villains, the entire speech, it's just so perfect. I also love how we are introduced to the big bad right from the start of the season. Remember, it says, "right back to the beginning". Granted it was talking about the beginning of time and evil, but it can also be a reference to the show going back to its earlier roots. Especially since "The Master" is the one to deliver that line, and season 1 also introduced him as the big bad from the first episode. There are other callbacks to season 1 in this episode as well, like with Sunnydale High and Dawn starting school there, and Dawn/Kit/Carlos sort of mirroring Buffy/Xander/Willow. Basically what you mentioned at the end of your reaction, "coming full circle". I love that. It's funny because "Amends" from season 3 is actually one of my least favorite episodes, but I really love the re-introduction of the same villain. I feel like it's implemented so much better this time around.

willow didn't only kill one person, i always forget about this too but she killed rack, and although he was very strange and creepy and didn't feel very human he was just a warlock- so willow killing him is essentially like killing amy or tara. (not that i'm shedding tears over either of her victims-well, maybe tears of joy) watching both this and the show lucifer just makes me realize that DB Woodstock does not age lol final note is something i love about the show- the episode 7 for each season is always a big one, the truth comes out, it sets the tone for the season, they all just have a similar energy about them (1x7 Angel, 2x7 Lie to Me, 3x7 Revelations, 4x7 The initiative, 5x7 Fool for Love, 6x7 Once more with Feeling)- and there are 7 seasons of the show- i just find it cute that the show itself has a lucky number

Brain (watches Buffy): That's a neat show. We should be casual fans. Heart: No, no, no. This is forever. This is what we do now. This is who we are.

Dawn would be a sophomore (second year of high school) this season. She was 14 in season 5, and in "All the Way" in season 6 she was identified as a Freshman. But, this IS her first day of a school at a new high school, so the statement is more or less still accurate. It's unclear where she or anyone else was attending high school the last three years. While Sunnydale is said to be a "small" city, but the welcome sign has shown a population of almost 33,000 people; which would almost guarantee at least one other high school in a district that size. "Sunnydale high" may have been the first high school, and thus no unique name.

Liam was arguably pretty sensitive. The parallels of the names between Angel and Spike was intentional - Liam is the Irish version of William, and a lot of their depictions are sort of the flip side of the same coin. Where William wrote poems, Liam/Angel draws. They're very creatively motivated. Even in their brutality, they have an artist's perspective; in a sick, twisted way. I don't think I call Liam a hedonist, perse. There's shades of it, he put on the pretense of a hedonist, but he was very much driven as part of his rebellion and desperation for his father's attention. He even told his father during their last fight, "Disappointment? A more dutiful son you couldn’t have asked for. My whole life you’ve told me in word, in glance, what it is you required of me, and I’ve lived down to your every expectations, now haven’t I?” At some point he had decided that if the only time his father was going to pay attention to him was when he was telling him what a failure he was, he was going to be the best failure possible. But Darla pointed out how that could never happen once Liam's father wad dead, much less Liam becoming a vampire; and that this would haunt him. And it arguably did. As Angelus, seems to be keenly motivated to take away people's happiness and the things in life that make them feel particularly human. But Angel isn't some unique persona created out of nothing. He's arguably who he was at heart as a human; the person he wanted to be if he had nothing to prove to anyone - a good person, a champion and defender of the innocent. Someone with an enormous heart. Those values don't come from nothing.

I can see why you ran away with that Buffy quiz win. Your series knowledge is unmatched!

Scott Margeson

Kudos to knowing the connection with this and the episode with Angel. Fantastic!!!

Ron Fehr

Seeing you talk about the ending of last season, I had a thought strike me. I wonder if Spike actually did go to get his chip removed, but the demon(?) that he sought decided to reinstate his soul instead. Either that or it thought that was Spike's intention all along.

Jarah Bethany

I just binged all 6 seasons worth of reactions on YouTube and paid for this just to dive further into season 7 with you and I can NOT WAIT

RavenLord

Dark Willow actually killed two people, not just one, which is why she said "I killed people" and not just "I killed someone." She killed both Warren and Rack (I'm not sure if they spelled it Wrack or Rack). Undeniably, both were horrible human beings who deserved death for the pain and suffering they caused and would continue to cause, but for normal Willow, the guilt must be horrible. And yes, D.B. Woodside played literally my favorite character from Lucifer! I always wished for Amenadiel (probably butchered the spelling) to be truly happy.

Cory James

The fact that you recognized the big bad right away is SUPER impressive. Damn LOL
