I've very much enjoyed Buffy season 8, like a lot. I am currently reading the last Volume as we speak, I still find this one weak. Not as weak as Tokyo, god that was troublesome, but weak. There's a whole section that I literally had to flip a few pages ahead just to make sure something going to happen. I have heard Season 9 is shorter and I'm thankful for this. Season 8, just seemed to be dragging on. Well until the jaw-dropping end! That was so good I bought the next volume on the spot. Still love Buffy and thankful for these ad-on's.
