Top Five Interesting S8 Discussions

[lusciousxander.livejournal.com]

1- A Closer Look at The Chain by angearia: The Chain is probably your favorite or worst issue, this post will make you understand it more.



2- Thoughts on the ramifications of Buffy's new life of crime by stormwreath: A discussion about Buffy and Giles' relationship in S8, and why Giles doesn't seem to be working with Buffy anymore.

3- Becoming - Buffy's emotional journey seasons 1-8 (so far) by joe_sweden: "Do you think she grows up consistently - always moving forward like a shark but on land - or in "one step forward, two steps back" style? Or just backwards full stop? Does she become a mature adult ever, or is she still on her way to that? Do we expect more from her at a young age because she's got superpowers and stuff? How does she change, if at all? Not just in terms of growing up/maturing, but also in more general terms - does her character shift, or do you think she's still pretty much the same Buffy we met in Welcome to the Hellmouth, just older and wiser and or stupider (you can be both sometimes )."

4- Who will give Buffy her epiphany? by angearia: Buffy has been slipping into the dark noticibly in S8, someone will probably open her eyes to who she's become. Who will that person be?

5- World made sense when there was only one? by angearia: A discussion about the possibility of the verse ending with one slayer.

I think one thing the comics has done is restart "episode" discussions. There's still meta out there on the TV episodes, but they don't have the "speculation" angle you have with an open canon.

Oh, yes, making prognoses about next issues is fun! :)))
