IMO one of the best episodes!  It opened a lot doors for season 7 and the finale etc. Also Season 8 should bring DWW back too -- nice willow isn't too fun anymore |

I watched this episode just last night!
Id forgotten how good the last few episodes of season 6 had been, and this one of my favourite finales.
I always find the ending incredibly beautiful, especially when Willow collapses in Xanders arms.
Poor Giles, im glad he came back though
10/10

This was a great episode - unlike the last one, which I liked but had few bits that really annoyed me, this one is pure goodness.
Great battle scenes between Giles and Willow. Fantastic way to laugh about season 6 storyline, and overall excellent way to develop characters as Dawn and Xander.
9.5/10 (-0.5 due to not having the main heroin save the world).

What an amazing episode! The season six finale! It tied up all the loose ends of the season and left us with a cliffhanger, Spike getting his soul back... Dark Willow was awesome! She was so powerful and SO evil. I love it! There were some nice emotional scenes in this episode, the most notable being Xander bringing Willow back from the dark. Also, Buffy and Dawn's emotional talk and Anya comforting Giles whilst he's injured.  Also, Jonathan and Andrew in the van with that driver at the end was really funny. And the music at the end is lovely too. Breath-taking episode! 10/10 |

Not a bad episode, but still probably the weakest finale. Xander saving the day was a nice touch; and it's sooo good to have Giles back. I think it really shows what a hole he left behind, when he comes back.
Still think Dark Willow was lame as hell though. She's a just a cheap excuse to tick of the bonus-for-geeky-fans boxes. She didn't play a junkie well until she got juiced, and just came off as an annoying wise-cracker. The attitude was cheesy and totally undermined the emotional underpinning of Willow's fall.
7... hmm... maybe 8 /10

I never realized what a hole giles left until he filled it again and everything seemed to be good again. ;D
I thougth his near death was rather convincing...unlike the scenes from weight of the world and spiral where it was fairly obvious he wasnt gonna die I actually thought it was likely here.
Xander saving the day was sweet...and was nice to see dawn kicking ass.
And personally I like evil willow...it does seem bit gimicky at times but I still enjoyed it.
I adore anya in this episode and the way buffy and giles laughed at the events of the past year was a nice way to look at it rather than get all broody and depressive again.
8/10...missing out on the last two points cos I was left with a feeling that it didnt quite reach its full potential and I think it was because of the scenes with buffy/dawn fighting mud monsters...I loved the team of the summers daugthers...but falling through a hole and fighting mud monsters was rather lame I thought...the creatures looked like something from a old monster movie...hence 8/10.
