i think it's just the fact that angel had to be killed because of everything that he'd done
where as spike sacrificed himself, and the fact that he was smiling so bravely made it even worse
Oh god. The tears! He was like the Brave Little Toaster, um, if the Brave Little Toaster was a vampire on fire in the depths of a Hellmouth.
But Spikes Death Gets Me To :(
And second of all, Spike didn't kill himself. He died so that he could make the world safe for Buffy. He went into that cave for Buffy. Angel gave them the amulet but they didn't know what it was going to do. They didn't know it would kill him, they didn't even know how it was going to help. It was never explained.
And I'm sorry, but standing there and letting someone die when they didn't have to, that's upsetting. That's like letting your sister jump off a bridge and not try to stop it. She had to kill Angel, he needed to die to stop the apcolypse that he started! A hard thing to do yes, but a necessary one. Spike didn't have to die.
Until AS5 was so good and Spike's a big part of that.
Put it in perspective though. Buffy is 17yrs old when she has to take the decision to stab her boyfriend, her first love, that she hasn't 'seen' for months, through the heart in because 'it's her job'. That took so much strength and she goes a little off the handle because of it.
And god the season 2 finale was just soooooo heartbreaking!!! I cried for about half an hour after that, seriously, it was awful. Whereas I didn't cry at all at Spike's death, I was far more cut up about Anya dying. And that's not through any dislike of the character, to the contrary, I like Spike, and so I thought it was a fitting, heroic end for him that redeemed him and was quite beautiful. Also very funny, because you can't have any important Spike moment without humour! "It stings a little"! Haha.
But the other reason I picked killing Angel over Spike's death was it's effect on Buffy. Sacrificing Angel to save the world broke her heart and royally screwed her up, so much so that she was still recalling the pain of it years later, in both seasons 5 & 6. She loved him completely, had lost him at the moment when she they had given themselves totally to each other, and then had to fight the demon that wore his face to the death. Then, at the last minute, he is returned to her, as she has wished & hoped for for months, and then she has to kill him. It was so sad! And she was devastated by it, tried to give up her calling because of it. The effect on her was so much worse, because she had to lose the man she loved again, but more than that she had to physically kill him and see the look of pain and shock and betrayal in his eyes when she did. Whereas with Spike, she was proud of him for his redemption, and was smiling just a few minutes later!
Buffy was in love with Spike the moment their hands clasped. -- Joss Whedon (San Diego Convention)
Both were very hard for Buffy but at least when Angel died he knew buffy loved him and belived ashe loved him and besided he came beack in season 3 and Buffy knew that.But when Buffy told Spike she was in lvoe whit him he didn't belive her,he was sacrafaysing himself thinking she didn't love him he left him burn only because he wanted to.Beofre that she was ready to die whit him.And even when Spike returned in season 5 ATS Buffy didn't knew about it and still thought he had died.So yes Buffy was in love whit him and I think that was much harder for her.
Buffy killing Angel was also heartbreaking and I also cried for weeks with this one, to this day I still tear up. But he didn't sacrifice himself to save the world, buffy Sacrificed him.
When she HAD TO kill Angel she was depressed for months, she barely ate or move..she was destroyed, shattered inside!
