The First Evil: the essence of a Psycho
In the College, we were talking about the Psycho behavior, I must say that the writers of Buffy were fans of the program The scale of evil or The Book of evil, mostly because the first evil is the source of evil, but because this being is a translation of a psycho mind, for example psycho people believe they are better than anyone, they are more smart than the rest of people, this is clearly the same path of the first evil, also the psycho are watchers, they love to watch their victims, the same concept of the first evil, Psycho minds also don't have a moral coil, they just don't care if they say a lie or not, this help them to built a character or a fake personality, the same case of the first evil when it took the shape of dead people, lie and hide the truth.
One of the quotes of the first evil was: "its not about what its wrong, or right, its about power", this is the same concept of a psycho, this kind of people don't care if something is bad or wrong, as long it works for the mind game with the victim. Its wrong to say that the first evil always tell the truth, this is actually the opposite, for example when the first say to Buffy mortal wound, in the final battle, it was a way to force Buffy to believe this, as a way to create a coward state on her. The first evil played mind games with all the characters. The main goal of the first like a psycho, its don't get caught, because of the narcissistic behavior of the evil itself, at the end the first was successful in this area, because it actually killed a lot of people down the road, just like a serial killer.
The first evil is an excellent concept, but it was waste, because the lack of deep in the topic, for example Giles could said, we are facing the source of all serial killers, that will help to give more explanation to the audience and to the characters about the nature of the first evil, in some way Giles was very put aside on season 7.
Season seven is clearly the most darkest of all, Buffy was like ghostbusters the movie in the other seasons, but season seven was more like Ghostbusters cartoon, more dark and psychologist, once again if you think the first evil its a cartoony character because it cant be killed or for the name, you are wrong, the first evil its actually the nature of evil, remember the first evil behavior when you meet someone, it might be handy, you could be in the presence of a psycho.
