I don't think Buffy came to terms with who she was, but that who she was changed. The only reason you get that fantastic glimmer of hope at the end is because she is no longer the 'one girl in all the world.'
Not to poop on the happy season 7 parade.
Let's see: I liked "Conversations with Dead People." Dawn's segment in that scared the bejesus out of me.
Liked "The Killer in Me" as I thought both Alyson and 'Warren' did a fantastic job playing the opposite parts.
Liked Potential for the last scene with Xander.
And I did like that Caleb was hiding out at Shadow Valley Vineyards: little Firefly reference for the flans (though I will admit to not picking up on it until recently).

The title is 'Buffy season 7 is great because...', but having good FX (in places) doesn't mean the season was great.
In fact, there's one absolute howler in the FX. Sunnydale is depicted at the end of Chosen as being in the middle of a desert, where we already know that it's on the coast and is surrounded by bluffs/hills etc. How they failed to catch that one I'll never know... ;)

And where exactly is the "woods?" The geography of Sunnydale has always been suspect, so I just shrugged when the big hole in the desert was shown.

No, I just remembered, there's bluffs on one side, but a short drive east of Sunnydale is the desert (South then takes ya to Vegas...).
Uhh huh Chrisisall

About the Kennedy thing. I don't think I would have hated her one bit if she just remained one of the potentials, and nothing more. Willow simply didn't need another girlfriend in the season, and the fact that she hooked up with Kennedy just felt very forced. A lazy move on the writers end. They were probably like "Willow's a lesbian she has to have a lover,quick who can we find". I'm sorry, but replacing Tara the sweetest character in all the Buffyverse with Kennedy a man hating, militant, macho butch was just not a good call. I don't think anyone who's favorite character was Willow can disagree.

True, but living on the CA coast myself, I could more easily believe the desert scenario over the "woods" scenario. You've got to go awfully far north to get coastal woods in CA (Cambria is probably really the first).
