I’m just gonna say this because. Well, just because, I guess xD
Negativity:
I watch The Vampire Diaries for the romance. I wouldn’t watch it if it was just about some high schoolers living out their normal lives and growing into adults no matter what their character development is like. I’m a romantic person. Romance stories are my favorite.
So yes, I am really not all that ashamed to admit that I have found this season very disappointing. Ever since Elena chose Stefan in season 3, I have been waiting to see those “consuming feelings” that Elena professed to have for Damon because after she rejected him yet again after all he has done for her versus all Stefan has done to her, I needed to see it.
The sire bond came up? I was optimistic because I was thinking that it would be the perfect opportunity for Elena’s “real love” for Damon to be stronger than “fake loyalty”. But no, the sire bond remained in effect, Elena hardly fought it, hardly confronted her human feelings for Damon that created the sire bond in the first place, hardly answered any tanong that Damon should have had or that a good portion of the audience had. And I’ve gotten nothing but every single character, now including Elena a couple times, saying that her feelings for him weren’t real.
Elena’s humanity was turned off? I was optimistic because I thought that this would have been another perfect opportunity for the writers to have Elena ipakita the audience something tangible besides one vulnerable look from her. Perhaps putting Damon in extreme danger so she’ll flip the shit to rescue him. Even something similar to the Defan and Mikael scene in season 3 where Elena would choose to do something or have Damon’s puso ripped out and she chooses Damon. Something. Anything. Instead, it turned into her trashing Damon about his feelings for her, trashing him about the sire bond and not even turning it on for him. Damon told Stefan that he wasn’t enough in 4x15 and being the romantic person that I am, I was hoping and praying that Damon would be eventually proved wrong. Nope. Damon wasn’t enough for Elena and that’s that.
While yeah, sure, some people pag-ibig all of these grand ideas about how Elena should find her humanity in herseeelf or how it’s absolutely perfect that her “special connection” with Matt would be what causes her to turn it back on and not anything related to her pag-ibig for Damoooon, or how Elena should chose to be siiiingle after this season to fiiiind herself, etc, and that’s great- but for me?
No thank you. Why can’t Elena’s character development be like Tony Stark’s was? Where he fell in pag-ibig with Pepper and his pag-ibig for her changed his life? Or even similar to Damon’s? Something. Anything.
So then okay, Elena opened the floodgates when Damon “killed” Matt. That was great and all. I did like it. Nina Dobrev’s pagganap was phenomenal. But that scene when Stefan was telling Elena to cling to something with Damon standing behind her and slowly backing away? I thought YES Elena can cling to the fact that Damon has been her rock this past year, her constant, the person who could pag-ibig her as a human and as a vampire, the guy who had sacrificed everything for her time and time again- nope. Damon wasn’t enough for her. She clings to a hatred for Katherine. Which would have been understandable if it was purely for the fact that she killed her brother- but it wasn’t. Elena’s reason was that everything that happened was Katherine’s fault.
What about Klaus? Klaus killed Jenna, tried to kill her multiple times, “took everything from Stefan”, and almost got Jeremy killed in season 3. If they had Elena only want to get revenge on Katherine for Jeremy, then I would understand- but having Elena blame everything on Katherine grossly dumbed down what Katherine did to Jeremy and it all just made it seem like to me that they’re just using this Kelena thing as an excuse to avoid the tatsulok business. Nope- they couldn’t have Elena find some sort of foundation in Damon because that would have made it too obvious before the finale “who she would choose” in the finale.
I’m disappointed. I want that romance. That passion. And every single opportunity this season has been wasted in my opinion and it’s gotten so bad that I don’t even think the finale is going to give me a good enough payoff anymore. Elena simply telling Damon that her feelings were real and that she loves him isn’t going to be enough and sa pamamagitan ng god if I hear one madami “I have changed since I drove off that bridge” I will throw something LOL. There was so much wasted potential this season.
So much. And after all the shit that happened in season 3 and the beginning part of this season, and how none of my big tanong have been answered, I’m just feeling so incredibly dissatisfied.
