And more of my favorite meta from the past year.
The trouble with insiders series by
kwritten. Deep multi-chaptered analysis of several Buffy characters through "Insiders vs. Outsiders" scope. Consists of:
1: The heroic outsider,
2: Dawn and outsider knowledge and
3: Xander and the gap of lack.
Economics and Demography of the undead by
gillo. Just in case you ever wondered about that and need some pointers to the math...
Character Meme: Buffy Summers by
sunclouds33. Wonderful analysis of Buffy's strenghts and flaws. Because no one is perfect in Buffyverse (and that's exactly what makes them so perfect).
The hardest thing for Buffy to forgive Spike by
itsnotmymind. And if it was just "Seeing Red", it won't be worth writing a meta on it, right?
Spike’s Character Evolution Through Wardrobe by
theloupgaroux. Yes, it's an actual character study, not some joke. (I really need to rewatch BtVS paying more attention to the costumes, it's amazing what you can get from them.)
And, as a bonus, there also is
Buffy Hair Meta series. Seriously.
