Anya change hair styles and hair colors more than any other cast member. One explanation is anya exploring her self identity as a human and one of those is to go through different hair styles.
Plus a big part of Anya’s character and series arc (see Season 7) is her lack of personal identity. She doesn’t really know who she is, what kind of person and I think her constantly shifting appearance was intentionally supposed to be an extension of that characterization. But I could just be reading into things a bit too much.
Definitely, but when she first started coming in as a regular in season 4, they definitely duplicated a Cordelia-cut for her, then quickly realized that was obviously a mistake and spent the rest of the time keeping her hair varied.
@@babler11 yes she did but she said they felt as if they didn’t do it right. she felt as if they made her death no big deal when she wanted it to be smth more. and i agree
@@yoloileebakai4821 Idk if you follow any reactors on Patreon but Alley Box will be watching The Body for the first time on Saturday. Right now she's hoping the scene at the end of IWMFLY was a hallucination.
I didn’t warm up to Anya until Season 5. That’s when I really started liking her character and how upbeat yet hilariously literal and completely blunt she was. From there, she became a fun part of the series for me.
Same here, I think I always liked her but I didn’t realize she’d be a part of the gang for so long, so I was on reservation of her leaving or being killed off, but somewhere season 4-5 she just won me over I just didn’t care and clearly it worked out for me
I think after they matured Willow, they felt they needed another awkward, quirky girl to keep bringing in the "quirky and/or autistic girls are hot" demographic. Definitely worked on me.
My wife and kids watched this show with me. Emma managed to make Anya an extraordinarily likeable character. She made us laugh but often it was her capacity for love and her honesty that just made you root for her. She played the fish out of water better than anyone. She did it so well that she could make you forget and draw you in deeper.
"I'm going to marry that girl." - Xander, looking at both Anya and Dawn. Given what happens in the comics, he's right on both accounts. Well, he almost marries Anya.
@@Katie-gr9mt The age difference doesn't bother me, 6 years isn't many. I don't like that Xander feels like Dawn's big brother for years before dating her. Plus his previous love for her sister makes it extra weird.
@@louise5511 If you shotgun the season 8 comic you can see it peppered in that Dawn's curse made them get closer. It was a kinda reflection of Xander's relationships with Cordelia and Anya.
He wanted to, but he was deathly afraid of becoming his father, and therefore turning his relationship with Anya into a copy of his parents' relationship, and he couldn't handle that.
Nope because he was brought up by Likely cold and absent parents and didn’t have a healthy example of what love is leading to developing a fearful-avoidant attachment style shown by the fact he sabotages every relationship he ever has. And also never initiates it’s always the other person he olongapo proposed to Anya because the world was about to end- and the moment Cordelia started to enter lovesville he self sabotages with Willow. But really deep down he feels like he doesn’t deserve the relationships he has- we see this in Restless where everything links back to the basement and the basement is a symbol for his feelings of inferiority,
@@Meg_intheclouds That’s very on the nose. Xander is kind of a psychological mess. Abandonment issues, inferiority issues, loneliness issues, self-loathing issues, grudge issues, impatience issues…his issues have issues. I get that he’s supposed to be “the human one” of the group, but even for a human, dude is messed up.
Off topic for this sort of video, but, when Anya suggests Buffy starts charging for her slaying, does she maybe have a point? Surely the council have the funds to pay her some sort of salary?
They do have the means. But they wouldn't ever pay a slayer. They're an ancient patriarchal organisation that uses teenage girls as disposable weapons. They only give them the destiny stuff instead of pay.
Anya: "Can I trade in the children for more cash?" Dawn: (WTF face)😂😂 --------------------------------------------------------- Dawn: "'Alone time' always translates into 'Get-Dawn-outta-the-house-so-we-can-have-loud-obnoxious-sex.'" Anya: "(chuckles) Oh, does that mean we can't?" ----------------------------------------------------------- Willow: "Ok, do you have your powder?" Anya: "Oh, I ate that."(chuckles) Willow: 😒 Anya: "I have it." ---------------------------------------------------------- Xander: "I'm very... Help me out." Anya: "Saviking in the sack." Spike: (deadpan)"Terrific." ------------------------------------------------------------
Unfortunately, I think Xander getting cold feet is related to the rule of the show that main characters can't be happy. Buffy especially can't be happy but it clearly happened to Giles (S2) and Willow (S6) as well. As much as I enjoy the show I really don't care for the fact that there's so much drama for the sake of making storylines that write themselves.
Anya is so sweet and quirky and I love how she just says everything that comes to her mind. I was really disappointed that she didn't have a happy ending in BTVS.
Best Anya scene is when buffys mom dies, and she struggles with whats going on, everyone is mad at her until she breaks, one of the best scenes in the show.
Yes, that was the worst development in Willow's character from my viewpoint. Willow starts out this sympathetic kind-hearted supportive brainiac who even lets murderous vampires cry on her shoulder, and somehow she has no sympathy for a vengeance demon (who at least wasn't killing innocents) who is struggling to cope with adapting to humanity? Why didn't she HELP her? Willow's best friend is Buffy the Vampire Slayer, whose entire life and show's premise revolves around her struggles to retain her sense of humanity with her superhuman status; surely Willow should have recognized that Anya's struggles are very similar and deserve the same sympathy as Buffy does?
@@cmm5542 Willow's likability for me started to shift downward after the episode where Angel reverted back to his evil alter ego (Angelus). When she caught Xander and Cordy kissing. -She would start insulting Cordy purely for the fact that she was unhappy about that relationship. And this would become a theme with Willow throughout the show. -She behaved like that towards Faith the moment Buffy started treating her like the third weel in the group. -She started treating Anya like this because she felt Anya was stealing her close friendship with Xander. Her character was completely ruined for me there. You being jealous or disliking the connection someone has wih your friends does not give you a free pass to start verbally dunking on them.
@@x-man9473 Yeah - I loved Willow so much from the start I initially overlooked a lot, thinking it was just something she was 'learning' to make a point in the show. And I gave her attitude towards Cordy a pass because while I loved Cordy, she HAD bullied Willow so that could be hard to accept. But you're right, Willow pretty much never got over any jealousy she felt towards ANYONE in the show and was really very petty about it
Love Anya ❤️ and she was 100% in the right in the ep where she and willow accidentally summon that troll. Willow was out of bounds and I don’t think that was properly addressed
Anya was one of the best in this group. She said what she needed to, with no shame and was completely honest about her feelings for Xander. Even though I don’t think Xander was the best bf, but that’s another topic.
I remember been 12 or something, and I accidentally found an episode of Buffy on TV. I was never into that fandom before, but those episode was «Selfless», and I just fell in love with Anya in it, I was sooo impressed by Amy's acting. Eventually that made me bing all 7 seasons XD Still my fav character. I know she's mostly a comic relief, but she's actually deeper than she appears.
Willow: "Guess she's out with Riley. You know how it is with a spankin new boyfriend." Anya: "Yes, we've enjoyed spanking." Xander: (flicks cards everywhere) "Well..."
I never liked her character, it was too dull and I never thought she had any chemistry with Xander. But the older I get, the more I like her. She is very autistic and always says what she means. I'm starting to love such sincerity in people. Being in tune with your own feelings and having integrity, no matter how weird you come off.
Oh!! Your editing is great. I love Anya. 🦊 There she is, in the face death, mortality, humor, jokes. Beauty, real honest and silly. If I ever have to face some kind of apocalypse, please let me meet someone like Anya!
I hate how they made Xander leave her at the altar, and then have them break up. With no real explanation why it didn't work. It sullied all previously beautiful and loving scenes between them.
I think they did it pretty well actually. They both Had doubts, especially xander. They started it at the beginning of the season when xander didn't want to tell anyone about their engagement. They continued it in the musical episode where they both confessed to have doubts. Plus anya was so overly into it, xander was Just the First Thing she latched on to in the human world and she defined a big Part of herself through him, which wasn't healthy. I also Wish they would have Ended differently, but i think they built Up to it very Well.
I've only seen a handful of episodes from seasons four thru six so far, but I couldn't help becoming totally smitten with her character (and not just because of how lovely she looks). Even when she's being extremely blunt and literal, there's always a warmth and kindness to her delivery that's really endearing.
I love that Anya is kind of coded as on the spectrum, she’s very blunt and honest to a fault, she likes to gets to the point, doesn’t always know how to read and respond to other people’s emotions, idk, I appreciate it. You see it in characters like Sheldon from The Big Bang Theory or Abed from Community, and I think about Anya and….idk, it feels like she kind of trail blazed that archetype a bit
I heart Anya so much. I don't even know why, but I relate to her so much. It is hard to be so awesome and funny when you are surrounded by ignorant shitheads.
I always wished that they would have referenced the fact that Anya was human before she was a demon more often---at least, I think she was? It's been a little while since I watched the show, but I think that she became a demon after she learned enough magic to successfully turn her husband into a troll? She had an interesting history of becoming different things, and yet they only focused on the final change in the chain, ie, demon back to human.
To be fair, she seemed to be human maybe 20-something years at most, she could’ve been late teens for the old times, compared to a millennia or more after that as a vengeance demon. At a certain point, her human years are just far eclipsed, as well as the farthest back. I personally don’t count them.
Anyanka was a powerfull women..beautifull and strong .she died in the fight against the Evil ..we all would be greatfull too have a Partner like her..strong ,tough keeping us alive 😅😅😅 and good looking too...❤
If you watch Beverly Hills 90210 reruns with Emma in them, it just seems wrong. She's such a better actress in this. Her acting style works better with Anya. She's good at playing the ditz/sarcastic.
You didn't include her best line, when she and Xander are arguing at the weird sex party in season 4 and she angrily yells, "I'm having a great time! Woohoo!" across the room! On a more serious note, I feel like they really missed a trick with Anya. Angel spent the better part of 100 years brooding and mourning because of all the people he killed. For over a century he rampaged across Europe, and the guilt of it has haunted him ever since. Meanwhile Anya was a demon, famed for her cruelty, gleefully torturing, maiming and killing countless men for well over 1000 years, but there's very little time spent on any feelings of guilt, and pretty much all of her adjusting to being made human again is played for laughs. She could have been really instrumental in helping Spike deal with getting his soul, which would have explained why he bounced back so quickly from being crazy with guilt. A lot of really interesting story could have happened around Anya, and I feel like it was wasted.
She didnt feel guilty, she killed those who had done wrong. Only time she felt guilty was post failed wedding when she tried to go back to demon, and got her friend killed.
I think they did her wrong at the end of the series.
Wanda, Wanda, Wanda,You didn't think you where the only
magical girl in town did you now hun?
Emma Caulfield requested it, dying for people she still couldn’t understand
they did everything and everyone wrong at the end of series, Weed-on lost it badly. Sesaons 6 and 7 do not exist for me, that was a sh*tfest.
Emma Caulfield told Joss she wanted Anya to die so if anything she did herself wrong

Hmm. Between her and Oz it’s pretty close; at least on a per episode basis.
That’s what I thought it was
But not as much as Mrs. Slocombe. (Are you Being Served?)
Definitely, but when she first started coming in as a regular in season 4, they definitely duplicated a Cordelia-cut for her, then quickly realized that was obviously a mistake and spent the rest of the time keeping her hair varied.
“But I have their money. Who cares what kind of day they have?” Probably one of the realest quotes ever spoken. My life philosophy, really.
She was one of the best comic relief characters in the Buffyverse. I couldn't believe they did her dirty in season 7.
LIke many characters.
They really did her dirty
It is not about doing her dirty. It is about the nastiness of war.
@@facundogonza5740yeah, but they could of killed off a half dozen more slayers instead of one of the best characters.
Idk why people can’t stand killing main characters off
"but i have their money, who cares what kind of day they're having"
ahhh my feeling whenever I have to be nice at work
Same 😂
She has some of the best comic timing I have ever seen. A most underrated actor.
Gotta love anya calling xander a viking in the sack when she is literally from viking-era Sweden
anya deserved better writing and a better ending
100/100
Writing was pretty good. The ending was anti-climatic though.
@@babler11 yes she did but she said they felt as if they didn’t do it right. she felt as if they made her death no big deal when she wanted it to be smth more. and i agree
I can only imagine the last episode.
"I guess we have to kill off one character that isn't part of the main four." *throws a few darts at a board*
Yeah. Her death was brutal and needless. Wasn’t happy about that. But there was a lot about Season 7 that I wasn’t happy about.
I realize we're only showing the funny parts, but if this is her being the best character, you have to include her scene from The Body.
Her acting there was brilliant! I didn't cry until that scene but when Anya lost it I turned into a waterfall.
Omg I relate a lot to her as a character and at that part it broke me sm
that whole episode was just amazing. the way she anya the concept of death and how it doesn’t make sense, or buffys scene when she found the body

Well... thats when she became one of the main characters. They really gave her more character development than the two previous seasons.
"That's my girl. Always doing the stupid thing". Definitely my favourite BTVS character, her death still hurts.

She made us laugh but often it was her capacity for love and her honesty that just made you root for her. She played the fish out of water better than anyone.

Xander definitely has a type. Anya and Cordelia were a lot alike. Anya just never found herself.
Will never get over Ania not getting an epic death scene
They didnt have to kill her honestly
season four may have the weakest big bad imo but oh my god is it one of my favorites just for all the anya and spike bits
So many great characters in this show. Really enjoyed the video. Anya was hilarious.

Anya joking about her having only fifty years of life left wasn't funny in the end.
She's not joking. She's been a demon for a thousand years, so only having fifty more years to live does feel like 'dying soon' for her.
Anya is one of my favourites!! I feel like she deserve a hell of a lot more !! 💔🥺

I agree tbh
They do have the means. But they wouldn't ever pay a slayer.
They're an ancient patriarchal organisation that uses teenage girls as disposable weapons. They only give them the destiny stuff instead of pay.
Hey the Slayer will get valuable work experience, it's just the NCAA model.

Valid question though
4:34 Being an introvert and having friends come over
She was amazing 💕
Tara and Anya were the best characters. I only realized just now how they killed the most popular characters, and watered down the others.
9:58 was my biggest laugh in the series. She's so happy someone finally asked.
4:34 is the only honest greeting when people come over
I adore her 😍

She was one of the best. i think her written lines were as good as Spikes and his were all epic. P.S. It must be bunnies
That did Anya so dirty in season 7 and I’ll never forgive them for that.
Anyone else bummed by the fact that Anya didn't survive at the end of S7 and not get back together with Xander?
Of course! She was one of the strongest characters. Her timing is impeccable.
My favourite Buffy character.

I do like how direct Anya is/was.
always love that scene straight from The Graduate when Anya's dress falls down and Xander, symbolically, shoots juice all over the place.

Meanwhile Anya was a demon, famed for her cruelty, gleefully torturing, maiming and killing countless men for well over 1000 years, but there's very little time spent on any feelings of guilt, and pretty much all of her adjusting to being made human again is played for laughs. She could have been really instrumental in helping Spike deal with getting his soul, which would have explained why he bounced back so quickly from being crazy with guilt. A lot of really interesting story could have happened around Anya, and I feel like it was wasted.
She didnt feel guilty, she killed those who had done wrong. Only time she felt guilty was post failed wedding when she tried to go back to demon, and got her friend killed.
Agreed 100% They just used and abused Anya. It will forever infuriate me, she was more than just the butt of a joke or some comic relief
The fact that Cordelia and Anya were my absolute fave characters and both got shit endings ☹️
I'd sooner seen Anya with Spike as a vampire for both being amoral psychopaths.
Anya would made an awesome vampire.
Ok so I love Xander’s reactions
Anya was the hottest girl on buffy
Don't I remember a scene where Anya was wearing a giant pink bunny costume for a Halloween party?
It was in this video. At least the first showing of the costume.
It was a Halloween episode. They were trapped in the frat house.
Chosen because she's deathly afraid of bunnies. 😂
