Day 30 - Saddest character death:
Joyce Summers – ‘The Body’ Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
She was the first, actually, the only (I think) character to die a natural death. All the characters reactions were so real & heartbreaking. Joyce dying was totally unexpected.
Jo & Ellen Harvelle – ‘Abandon All Hope…’ Supernatural.
Considering everybody has died on Supernatural (literally) Jo & Ellen’s deaths were shocking, poignant & gave Jo’s character real purpose. The fact that Ellen sacrificed herself to save Sam & Dean so they could continue their mission to return the Devil to Hell & to help Jo finish the task she needed to do but couldn’t because she was dying was just gut wrenching! Ellen, also, obviously made the choice because she knew she couldn’t go on in a world where her daughter wasn’t with her. It shows a lot about their bond & the progression of the mending of their relationship.
The fact that Jo & Ellen died saving the Winchester boys, also, shows a lot of forgiveness & acceptance of their families’ pasts together. Honestly, thinking of this last part of the episode gets me a little bit choked up still.
