Buffy The Vampire Slayer Comics: 5 Reasons To Love & 5 Reasons To Hate Them

By Daniel Bowen /

2. Xander and Dawn

Most Buffy fans seem to hate Dawn, as they would their own annoying bratty little sister. Me, I love her (I€™m sorry). She brought a whole new dynamic to the show which was much needed at the time (my opinion) and her character history (a mystical dimensional opening key) has so much potential. Though doesn€™t it kind of seem like the characters completely ignored this fact about Dawn after the end of Season 5. There must be more to the €œKey€ than bringing hell to Earth. The monks must have protected her for a reason? Whether you hate her or love her, doesn€™t the idea of Dawn and Xander dating, and then living together (yes, this happens) kind of creep you out a little. I mean, it isn€™t completely out of the blue€ in the TV series there was a connection between the two, a bond they shared being the only normal Scoobies without superpowers... but did they really need to hook up. Also, with the sheer amount of women Xander hangs around with during Season 8 (he basically becomes leader of the potentials), would he really be interested in getting into a relationship with a girl he once babysat for, a girl who is his best friends little sister. Creepy€ Both Xander and Dawn deserve better.
