Midnight Crypt Worx

Yeah the ending was horrible. Anya for me is the worst. Yes she has earned it, multiple times..like wtf?!

I must admit this is the 1 episode of Buffy I really don't like 😐

Rey

Anya was referring to how Slayers are chosen. Buffy earned it less actually since she didn’t even go through potential slayer training and studies.

This is one of my favorite episodes of the series. I am shocked that some don't like it. It's an important episode where, for once, we're not letting Buffy get away with everything.

Maybe she was given the powers yes..but how on earth is she lucky?? She's been through 7 years of trauma and 2 deaths, and anya considers her lucky?

I think they have fair points, and buffys not totally in the right. However their treatment of her, especially Anya and Dawn, is disgusting. She literally died for Dawn, and Dawn kicks her out of the house? Anya...wtf have 'you' even contributed? And you say Buffy isn't worth it or hasn't proven she can lead?? Also how do you consider her lucky? She was so depressed last season and you all selfishly brought her back, so you clearly thought she was amazing enough to risk that...has so much changed?? The worst thing is there's only 3 episodes left and they have this huge fight. If it happened earlier in the season, ok. But I hate that it's so close to the end and this is the mood

Rey

Technically, lucky that she has friends that have brought her back from the dead. Friends that are the primary reason she is still kicking around as a slayer at 20. Also Anya was referencing her gifts - the luck she got for receiving them. The gifts that automatically make her a warrior and default leader. Anya earned her vengeance demon status.

Rey

Anya has contributed a lot in the past and in the current season assisted with research and getting intel as she knows more and has more sources than Giles. They brought her back because Willow and Xander missed their friend, they couldn’t care less about a leader.

Rey

As for Dawn, Buffy forced her to respond that way with “I can’t stay”. Buffy could’ve said, this is my house you guys leave. And they would all leave and find another place and Buffy stans are still going to be mad LOL

i dont "stan" anyone, this is just my opinion. I like Anya, but tbh she's never really done a massive lot compared to the others so I feel like she shouldnt have authority to say what she said about Buffy not being deserving of her role as slayer. Also yep, they brought her back because they missed her...that is still selfish, and infact the eye of baljoxa said it was because she was brought back that the first was able to rise...so actually it's all their fault. Anyway, not here to argue, but my opinion is that though the others had some fair points, they treated Buffy badly here

Rey

Anya was the one who brought up ideas to help defeat Glory. Even if raising Buffy resulted in the First given the opportunity to manifest in flesh doesn't negate that the group's arguments were valid and Buffy put herself in the corner that allowed Dawn to ask her to leave or force Buffy to kick everyone out of her house - everyone else would have been fine with the latter option. But the whole concept that Buffy is solely responsible for their survival and the world's safety is false - even Spike acknowledged that her friends and allies made her different from previous slayers.

Conkerzone

Controversial take here, but i think that Giles is in the same boat as Anya. what is he contributing now? Besides bringing collateral damage. Even Buffy said herself last episode, that hes taught her everything she needs to know. Its probably just this episode making me say that.

Rey

In that case, no one is bringing anything to the table including Buffy herself. They're just fighting for survival at this point.

Xander is not my favorite character, but, IMO, he is the only one who has a right to feel unsure after what he lost. And I do understand that Dawn is still trying to figure out if it was her mom or the The First that told her she couldn’t trust Buffy. I think that is still in the back of her mind. Wood sucks!! He tells her last episode that she should test the girls. Then he jumps on her in her own house this episode. I love Faith and Buffy! I don’t agree with some of the things Faith said this episode. I also don’t agree with some of the things Buffy said (or did) this episode. But this is the ultimate betrayal from people she has died to save more than once! Anya is another character that I have always loved, but I hate her this episode. Buffy has “earned it” many times over!! She wasn’t blindly ordering them back. She offered to talk plans and strategies with them. As Xander said last episode, “You gotta trust her. She’s earned it!”

Hi! I'm just catching up on these videos now. I agree, Buffy's friends and family kicking her out of her own house is one of the most ridiculous things that ever happened on this show. Even if they're right about some things, you don't kick the slayer out in the middle of the apocalypse because your feelings are hurt. I also really dislike what Giles did, lying to Buffy about Spike, and then going along with everyone in this episode. Giles raised Buffy to be strong and stand on her own. He stood up for her against the watcher's council, who clearly didn't respect her because she was young and a girl and just someone for them to manipulate. If he doesn't respect her then what's the point?
