8 years of my life, I never missed an episode, and I must say that I am happy with the way they ended it. Thank you Julie, thank you Kevin. We’ve all had our ships, my personal was Delena from the beginning, and later Bonenzo. I fully understand people that were rooting  for Stelena or any other ship, but we all must admit that the ending was beautiful. In the end it all began with family, Elena’s parents died and we’ve seen her coping with that, and most important the Salvatore brothers, lot of hatred, lot of grief, but in the end they are brothers, and their way to forgiving one another was and is the crucial theme of the show. Ending came to full circle, Elena is with her family and Damon is with his brother, and they all found peace after they died, which, in my opinion, was the only way to find happiness in Mystic Falls. Truth to be said, eventough I really loved seeing Delena together, the chemistry between Ian and Nina is dead, their scenes were just off, their break up did really impact the show, and it is a good thing Nina departed when she did, it was probably very difficult for her, and it still is, at least I think so.Â
When it comes to other characters, I loved the way Bonnie Bennet grew up, and learned to control her magic. Even though they killed off Enzo, they still managed to keep him in her life, he helped her realize that she is strong, and the way they love each other so deep is just beautiful. That scene where all the Bennet witches were together was just lit, way to go Julie and Kevin. I really love how Caroline developed through years, and how her and Stefan remained supportive of each other till the very end. He knew how her girls are important to her, and she knew how his brother is important to him. I especially loved the letter from Klaus, and I hope to see them together, because eventually she will end up alone, and the only vampires left are the Originals, and admit it or not their chemistry was always on point.
I loved the ending, I loved that they brought all the characters back, I loved seeing Katherine again, and Vicki and Tyler watching over Matt was so sweet. I loved every part of the episode. I was ugly crying especially when I thought that Damon’s gonna die, I was just screaming nooo stab her and go out, and I was very happy when I heard he is ok. What Stefan did for his brother was beyond everything else, and the ending scene when they are together again in afterlife was everything. Thank you for that Julie. And thank you to Ian and Paul, nobody could represent these characters better. Emotional roller coaster began and ended with “Hello, brother”. Thank you Nina, Candice, Kat and everyone else on the show, I really love the show, and can’t wait to see you on your other projects.
