I just finished watching the season and omg I have so many questions! Spoilers ahead!
{I also noticed that Klaus was a lot more selfish this season. Maybe it was because he wasn't always high as a kite, like he was last season, or perhaps he let the cult stuff get into his head too much? I thought the cult was a hilarious addition, though; finally, our boy gets the love and attention he deserves lol! I didn't like how he treated Ben in some scenes, very unnecessary. Yes, Dave!! So glad he made an appearance this season. Dave enlisted earlier because of his interaction with Klaus at the diner, so I wonder if that will affect their initial meeting back in the first season. I thought it was sweet of Klaus to try and save Vanya, but if he did it out of love for her or he did it because he thought he was her last option, I have no idea. I hope it's the former lol, that would be better.
Speaking of saving Vanya, I loved how we got to see more of Ben this season! Even if he didn't get a lot of screen time, he was more fleshed out as a character. Ugh, that scene where he goes into Vanya's mind was so heartbreaking, but it was executed very well. I loved his speech about how it wasn't her fault that she couldn't control her powers as well as the others, because how could she? And the hug?? So wholesome and sad at the same time!! I liked how Vanya had more control over her powers by the end of the season, a lovely touch! I also saw her relationship with Sissy coming a mile away, and I wish they could be able to flee together with Harlen. But, I'm glad she recognized the fact that she and her family will likely be hunted down for their entire lives and, therefore, can't provide a safe environment for Sissy and Harlen.
My boy Diego was such a mess this season, but I'm here for it. Can we talk about how he can deflect/redirect bullets?? Did he always have that ability, or was that his first time using it? Does it work with other metallic objects? I would assume so, but powers can be finicky. I enjoyed how the writers dove deep into his behavior and explored his hero complex and why he has one.
One of the most interesting characters this season, in my opinion, was Lila. I didn't see the twist that she was like the rest of them coming at all. So are her powers purely mimicry, or does she have some "original" ones? I think she and Diego are cute together. I hope she comes back to join them because she's got a lot of potential and I'd love to see more of her!
Can we talk about how close everyone was?? They're not a dysfunctional family anymore!! Or at least not as dysfunctional as they once were lol. I mean, yes, trying to get them all back together was a little rough. But otherwise, they worked great as a team, and they all had each other's backs.
I guess I'll talk about Luther now. Overall, still, not my favorite, but I liked how he apologized to Vanya and recognized what he did wrong. He was more likable than he was last season and had more depth to him.
Oh! I almost forgot Allision. I thought she was also more likable this time around and got more development, which I enjoyed. I'm glad she found Ray and was able to earn things of her own accord rather than have them be given to her through her powers.
That cliffhanger, though!! The Sparrow Academy?? How did they screw up the timeline now? I bet most of it had to do with the fact that they interacted with their dad before he knew them. } Spoilers over! Dang that's a lot haha
