In this volume, Buffy and the slayers battle a group of Japanese vampires who have stolen Buffy’s magic scythe (and Dracula’s powers). A few subplots going on here. Xander revenges the murder of his brief love interest, slayer Renee. Dracula proves he can be a good evil guy. Buffy and Satsu plan to part ways, but end up having hot break-up sex. Will has issues with a mermaid/goddess ex-lover (not sure what that’s all about). Oh, and giant-size Dawn fights her robot double. Overall, a good episode, though readers don’t learn anything more about Twilight or the overall season arc.
DweebMeter: 3.5/5
