This is a reverse reversal.
Now everything fell into place.

A very intense series. And the worst thing is that Joyce's illness has nothing supernatural :((

@ajbige: It's really scary. For Buffy in terms of her perception. But not the scariest thing in the series

@ajbige: But after all, before losing consciousness, she did not recognize Dawn, and this suggests thoughts.

And I liked the scene with Spike the most, which way the staff has already gone, as soon as they don't change their role, you still get carried away from him.
Well, I would like to mention two monks, after all, not strangers, people from the USSR - Pavel Lychnikov, an acquaintance (to me) from Physical Education and several American TV series; and Ravil Isyanov, an acquaintance from "Americans" and "Shine". It's a shame, though, that not the characters were chatting in Russian.

@D-M-S: they spoke some kind of Western Slavic language, Czech or Slovak, as far as I can tell.

An interesting observation: Buffy calls Spike by his real name, William, only twice during the entire series.
the first time is the conditional beginning of their "relationship" (one realized and accepted, the second went over to the individual, brought out of the surrounding mass unimportant and temporary);
and the second time is not such a conditional end.

Oh, this symbolism, and sad and trembling at the same time :

A great plot twist with my sister

In this whole situation with my sister, I am incredibly sorry for Buffy, her desires, her life were not taken into account, they were made as convenient for them, subconsciously she felt that something was wrong, that she had always been the only daughter, and she and her mother had their personal moments that were not necessary to share with my sister. And now it's been taken away, a very sad moment when Buffy realized all this.
Spike was so embarrassed at the sight of Buffy, and did not know how to behave, and seemed rude, but not out of malice, but just so as not to give himself away. This moment amused me.

I'm glad for Anya :)) Dawn looked very creepy as she watched Buffy from the window. Buffy is very sorry. Despite her vocation, loving environment, boyfriend, she is very unhappy.

Spike behaved like a schoolboy who pulls pigtails of a girl he is in love with)))))
I'm glad with my sister that we sorted it out)) I wish they could also remember their normal life without her)))

When the monk tells Buffy the truth, it's so sad every time...

How many times have I watched the series, I've always been infuriated by a sister who appeared "out of nowhere". Right up to the tenth episode. Well, in the 8 years that have passed since the last viewing, I didn't even remember about it right before it appeared. and I thought that something similar to how that horseradish appeared, like he was so famous and important, but in fact, on the contrary, well, it almost happened: someone's magic, it fits here. however, I thought that she herself influenced them like that (only why), but then it turned out that she didn't even understand the situation herself. Well, if they made her human, they could at least give her a normal character/behavior. Otherwise, it's just a nuisance from this person, and it also infuriates all the episodes where he is present. Joyce (is that Buffy's mom's name?) I "woke up" from magic once, and then I "remembered" my daughter again, again I thought that the "daughter" was to blame, and if not, then I don't really remember what happened to her, I hope they will explain. And well, that super-strong one thought at first that he was a vampire, and then they showed a moment with that guy's head and now he's not sure. again, I don't really remember.

Somehow, this character is a bit weak for another "primitive evil".

It was such a relief when Dawn's sudden appearance was finally explained.
For 5 episodes, he accused the series of being illogical . 🙈

"It got shorter for me... How can I put it more clearly? Shitty" hD

"This whole meat suit is equipped with rot by default, then, yes, people are like that..."
I won't quote everything, but damn, how these demons are sometimes right. My comment may seem strange to some, but now I remember the mayor from season 3 and his dislike of germs, but I recognize myself in these demons every time, because their dislike of such things is incredibly close to me. Sometimes I think about the fact that I don't like being, let's say, a "living organism", in particular, to realize that part of my body consists of a bunch of other organisms + the flow of other unpleasant processes in your own body that you can't control and have to just put up with them without having other options. (For example, sweating, aging, hiking in a big way, let's say, is also not the most pleasant activity, etc.) Sometimes it seems that life turns into an endless attempt to come to terms with your own body, because you either can't change all this at all, or you can change something, but it requires a tremendous effort...
