The Originals 4x13♡Uncut Reaction &Review ♡

Yeah, I'll never forgive the writers for this tbh... They never just let Klaus and Hope be together. We don't want them separated, we want them to just be able to be a family! It's so unfair! Elijah erasing his memories hurts, but it makes so much sense. He can not risk not being able to stay away from Klaus. Though it seems Klaus isn't able to just be away from Elijah either, he of course had to go check on him. Make sure he's safe and happy. And as much as it hurts, there's always part of me that's just happy for Elijah. As much as he loves his family, and as much as they love him and as much as I love them, it is just great to see him unburdened from everything. He's no longer ruled by his love for his family. He can just be happy in whatever way that is for him. He's no longer solely focused on Klaus' redemption. He's no longer his family's keeper. He can just live however he wants. And I love that Marcel went to be with Rebekah. I honestly think that his talk with Klaus is what made him finally feel able to. He got that closure he needed, and finally felt like he could just be himself without feeling he had to live up to something for Klaus. And I think he also probably finally felt he had Klaus' blessing, which it's made obvious in that scene that he always kinda wanted it when he said that he's not good enough for Rebekah. I think that closure is what allowed him to finally leave New Orleans and just be with Rebekah because he finally had Klaus' approval there. I think that's what made him realise that he was wasting his time with New Orleans when he could be with the woman he loves.

And just wanted to add people can say Legacies isnt as good as the vampire diaries or originals, I think one reason at least is they are comparing the spinoff to originals and vampire diaries and wanting it to be as dark. But it is its own show, a lighter show. It's not supposed to be as dark.

Ironic that hayley wanted to get rid of the Mikaelsons for hopes future well being, and at the end of this season she got it in the most tragic way possible. The Elijah scenes were powerful. Elijah is such an interesting character, he’s far from a saint, far from a hero to the world, far from a good soul. But he’s the biggest hero to his family and stand by the point that Elijah wouldn’t be a bad example for hope. If she was to one day see the darkness Elijah constantly taps into she’d also be forced to know that he did that for her father, for her mother for her aunt for her uncle, for hopes family. I wasn’t the biggest fan of the mind wipe of elijah, but what other thing could you possibly do to help the one character that’s an embodiment of always and forever stay away from literally another half of himself. Elijah did this mind wipe for hope knowing she’s what klaus and hayley cherish above all and couldn’t imagine how hard it was to reach that conclusion. Beautifully tragic ending from klaus and Elijah!

I really recommend you react to legacies when you finish the originals. It is a big spinoff to both the vampire diaries and originals and in that universe feautering big characters and big guest stars time to time from both shows. It is just as big a spinoff to both shows as the originals was to the vampire diaires. And it continues the vampire diaries universe. At the same time it pays tribute to originals and the vampire diaries and it even pays tribute to buffy and harry potter.

Saddest final after season 5😭😭

"In the eyes of a saint, I'm a stranger" as Klaus realizes Elijah doesn't recognize him. They could not have picked a better song for this finale, absolutely perfect
