I LOVED Vi!!!!! I swear, once she ditched that hat she got cool. Like really cool. I want to see her again.

"Wow, that was nifty." - Aly's delivery of that line cracked me up. Much better than "I'm so juiced."

I, too, am distressed by the lack of "five by five" and an abundance of "yo". Faith used to be so cool. I still love her, but she was much better on "Angel" IMO. But I liked the Wood/Faith scene "No way you're prettier than me."

Anya's death, to me, was extremely fast. It took a minute to actually register that it happened. Between her and Amanada I was upset.

Spike's "sacrifice" on the otherhand left me cold. It's like Buffy in "The Gift": I pretty much didn't care cuz I know he'll be back in a few months. Go him dying in a big burny flash of redemptive goodness, but don't expect me to be sad when I know he's not gone forever.

The Xander/Andrew scene makes much more sense to me after "Empty Places". Just watch how he reacts to his injury, pride covering up deep loss with humor and a brave face. That's all we're seeing here, not disregard for Anya's death, as some people have said.

In the end:
Yay to the potentials (Vi especially)
Yay to all the Scoobies (They all had good moments)
Yay to the action and effects (I was totally into that battle)

Nay to the no surprises (I was quite disappointed)

Yeah, not much nay. I loved it!

Great review, sLaPpy! *Hugs*

I am totally obssessed with Vi now! I'm thinking I may have to fit her into FaithFic or AngelFic.
