The whole process of watching Buffy was a serious torture for me, very serious!
This drama is too for my taste. The high school comedy of the 90s, the ridiculous monsters and vampires with super simple makeup, the simple and pure, novel and relaxing unit set stories, like urban legends, like "Alice in Wonderland" and "The Wizard of Oz" , Without so many fancy skills and tiring settings, the friends will always defeat the stupid bad guys after taking an adventure together, no one will be harmed, it is wonderful and absolutely safe. All the tangled plots with Angel, some are just sweet and sour addictive pleasure.
But after watching the three seasons, the plot has taken a turn for the worse. It is dumbfounded. It can be called the most irresponsible and playful American drama I have ever seen.
Byebye Sunshine, Hello Darkness!
There are no more fresh unit dramas anymore. The main lines of boring [specially the fourth season] and Diablo [specially the fifth and sixth seasons] occupy a lot of content. For the derivative drama "Angel", no matter how abrupt it is If it is unreasonable, we must continue to let the protagonists and supporting actors break up and distribute popular characters over.
Everyone is too miserable, I am not targeting anyone, I mean everyone:
Giles lost his position as a librarian, lost his status as a vampire hunter guardian, always suspected that Buffy no longer needed himself, and often fell into serious self-doubt.
After graduating from high school, Xander failed to go to college with his best friends Buffy and Willow. He lived in the basement of his parents’ house, did odd jobs everywhere, went to construction sites as workers, and lost his beloved school girl, Cordelia [Cordy also] I’m really touched by the story of the necklace], tied to the boring Anya, the wedding did not go smoothly, and lost his left eye when fighting against the boss.
Willow lost the computer master settings, and in the next few seasons he almost no longer showed his superb hacking skills. Instead, he became a black witch. He lost his cute werewolf boyfriend Oz. He became a homosexual and tied up with the very boring Tara. Had to watch Tara die.
Buffy became a love-hungry nympho. The special soldier Riley in the fourth season was so bored that he exploded. When Angel came back to slap him in a cameo, I applauded. The relationship with Spike was very nonsense + capricious, all unnecessary entanglements. The father changed from a person who loved his daughter to fooling around with the secretary. He was extremely irresponsible. The mother who had been guarding him died suddenly. In the fifth season, there was an extra blood relationship at all, and the memory was forcibly modified and forced in. My sister, who doesn’t really exist, needs Buffy to take care of her parents after her mother’s death. God knows that Buffy was originally the kid who could arguably coquettishly quarrel with her mother. After he died once, he had to be recalled by his friends and returned from heaven to hell.
I just wanted to ask, can this plot be more realistic and scarier? If it’s a passerby I don’t like at all, it would be great, but this is the vampire hunter I like so much. If you just set it casually, it may be fine, but every one is really pushed to the front, and Willow is afraid Xander was ashamed of her own homosexuality. How did she stay in Buffy's mother when she died? How did she hallucinate that her mother was saved in a moment, how her sister was not obedient, and needed Buffy, who was haggard and no longer smiled on her face, to take care of her.
They have just graduated from high school, why should they be treated this way? ! I’m only 17 years old [not] ah, why do you do this to me? !
Because of all these tragic contents, even if Dawn is innocent and Spike is humorous, I can’t feel good; even if it has [Mime] [David Lynch Stream of Consciousness] [Musical] [Amnesia] and so on, it is very pioneering For creative episodes, I still can’t give full praise [except for the seventh season, the seventh season is great! 】, I can’t laugh at the thought that they can’t go home to sleep after the adventure, go to school happily the next day, and drag their tired bodies back to face their heavy shackles.
After reading it with a dull gaze, it is better to lie down on the bed.
I finally prescribed this prescription to myself:
Do you know how to make excellent animation works? They freeze time, "Detective Conan", "South Park", "Chibi Maruko"... this list can be written down forever.
Do you know how to do better animation works? They will not easily join new core characters, and the protagonist group of "Rick and Morty" will always be this family.
So our "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" can also maintain the content of the first three seasons of the main drama. California is always sunny, always Sunnydale High School, Buffy, Willow and Xander have classes together, chat together, solve wonderful events around him, and go to school books. The pavilion helped Giles find information about the monster, went to the bronze bar to quarrel with Cordelia, watch Oz’s performance, and then dance. Buffy was going to patrol the graveyard and poking the vampire’s chest with a pointed wooden stick. Although his mother was nagging, she pampered and took care of the only one. Daughter Buffy, dad will come to meet every month, boyfriend is a tall, handsome, mysterious vampire Angel [ Buffy personally stamped Angel is her favorite person in this life, we Angel is the soul of the whole drama first male protagonist ,Thank you very much ], when he gets bad, he will tease, and when he gets better, he will gently take Buffy to skate and go to the dance party.
It’s not that I don’t want to accept the growth of characters, but at the beginning of the taillights, I don’t want to see the beautiful girl being killed by monsters. I want her to fight back bravely and intelligently. The tone of the whole drama should be such a pleasant and healthy first three seasons. That's right.
If there must be an ending, then the end of the third season is also a very complete ending:
At the high school graduation ceremony, the badass mayor spoke on behalf of the adults, and suddenly turned into a huge demon. All the graduates took off their uniforms and took up arms to fight side by side, and finally blew up the school.
Buffy’s friends looked at the burned school. Oz suddenly said, "Friends, we survived", "Yes, from such a dangerous battle", "No, highschool"
It's so wonderful, "Harry Potter" will also bow down [my friend said so].
Although Angel turned and left after the battle, the people who met will always meet again. In that miraculous world, the curse of getting bad when the sheets are rolled, and what can't be grown old together, will be solved if you think about it.
In the end, I want to end with two stills, and once again reveal the sincerity tattooed with [ team Bangle 4ever ].
This is Buffy's scribble on his notebook. My friend said that they are very elementary school chickens. I hope they have the same simple and happy feelings as elementary school chickens.
This one is the first kiss of the two. In a later episode, Angel once said, I quote, [this isn't some fairytale, when I kiss you, you don't wake up from deep sleep and live happily ever after], I hope that when they kiss, when they hug, when they are together, they will always be happy, live happily ever after.
PS: This is a very emotional and childish comment. Of course I know it, but I am only 17 years old after all. Do you remember it?
