SPOILER (click to toggle) I really dislike how it ends between Oliver and Diggle, too. Especially since it's not the first time that Oliver keeps things from his team. I would have liked if Diggle had punched him and then became nice again. I read somewhere that Oliver will be in season 4 so I'm thinking that he will probably return. The fight between Ra's and Oliver wasn't intense at all and I thought it was pretty weird that Oliver is suddenly better than him because he has 'something to live for'.

It really sucks that Oliver made a deal with Malcolm, I would have loved for Nyssa to become the new Ra's because she kicks ass.

Bow and arrow actually have some advantages over guns. A bow is better for stealth and you can reuse some of the arrows. Arrows are supposed to be better at penetrating soft armor because they're sharp and I guess having an arrow stuck in you hurts more is stops you better than a bullet that passed right through you? But other than that a gun would be way more practical. Maybe the bow and arrow are good for showing Oliver's strength and discipline?

SPOILER (click to toggle) I would give a 7/10 for this episode, but the whole season hasn't been awesome at all. It was cliché and some stuff didn't made sense. I'll watch next season .. but I have low expectation.

[Spoiler] I feel like Diggle is Oliver's main man, I'm confused ;u; I also felt like the fight between Ra's and Olie was really boring and not well acted. There is a part of me that believe that Ra's really wanted to die and retire. It just, was too OCC in my opinion ..

I NEED TO KNOW THE DEAL, GDI. Why would Nyssa kneel before that piece of shit, eww. [/spoiler]

I definitely agree with you on how a bow and arrow has some advantages. c: A bullet can scatter inside the body though as it deforms etc., while an arrow doesn't do that, since it just goes in (so it leads to more damage). I'm just thinking... Ollie, you used a gun before in one of the earlier episodes this season, why can't you use that on Ras? Ras would never suspect a bow and arrow guy to whip out the gun and instantaneously shot him. xD

SPOILER (click to toggle) I found the fight really weak and then Ollie saying the same words over Ras as Ras did over Thea... ugh. For a second there, I thought he'd take the ring and run to Nanda Parbat to become the second coming of Ras if he likes it so much.

Also. Does it bother anyone when half the people on the show say Rah-s and then the other half says Ray-sh like how am I supposed to say his name? ahjghskkhekhehjk annoying

Wow, you're being way too nice with a 7/10. I would have thought you'd hate it. xD

To me it's Ra's or Rah's because that's the way I was raised with.

MEH. It was okay because I liked the teamwork. I still believe that the main plot of the show is to fuck up Oliver even more tho.

Just like Barry Allen, Derek Hale, Jim Gordon .. BROODING MEN YO'.

Yeah I say it as Rah-s as well and I thought it was correct until I heard the other way of saying it and it drives me bonkers, because usually people only have one proper way of pronouncing their name. xD

Yeah, I wonder how they'll mess with him next season... though I'll probably just read the recaps online. or you can tell me

If you can't brood, you can't superhero. True story.

SPOILER (click to toggle) Yeah, I'm confused, too. Diggle has been through everything with Oliver and was even his best man! It just seems so weird that he can't get over it. It was so boring. I think it's a bit weird that he still wanted Oliver to be his sucessor because Oliver betrayed him and even told him that he wanted to get rid of the League and Ra's is just like 'lol, idc, you'll still fulfill the prophecy'. Doesn't he care about the League?

The deal is really weird, I can't imagine what could have possibly made Oliver agree with Malcom on something like that! Seeing Nyssa kneel didn't match her character at all. She doesn't seems like the person to accept that so why should she kneel?

Hm, I think not all bullets deform that much though, or do they? I guess the battle was a lot about honor? Otherwise Oliver could have just shot him from afar XD I think what Oliver said was what League members always say to the people they kill but I'm not sure. The part with the ring was ridiculous. I found an explanation for the pronounciation here which shows that the 'Raish' pronounciation is just a strange mix of hebrew and Arabic.

Yeah, maybe if the person isn't a VIP. You would think Ras would make sure people aren't butchering his name. He is THE demon's head. Idk. Seems weak to allow people to butcher your name, but I guess we saw just how weak he was. :P

omg hahhahaha genius xD "Ollie, you only have one look. Please leave."

I'm not a ballistics expert, so yeah, probably not all do that, but the possibility of fragmentation is enough to say the proper bullet would be more damaging than an arrow.

Yeah, it probably was about honor. I guess I need to go watch non comic book genres, because I find it funny they're doing that.

It felt like LotR a little bit. HERE HAVE THIS RING. WITH THIS RING LIES POWER, YES. xD

Oooh, goodie! Thank you for explaining that for us! 8D I feel less frustrated about it now haha.

[Spoiler] Indeed. To me, they are blood brothers :c I just don't like it, it feels forced.

I HAVE NO IDEA?! Ra has never ever offered the League to anyone but Bruce Wayne, so I have no clue about this. It already felt unatural to me ..

That's where I spat on the show. She stood in front of her father, the Demon's Head. Why would she kneel in front of someone like him? Hell if I know, but I hated it. [/spoiler]

Oh god. I just remember the upcoming show from CW: Legends of Tomorrow and .. Now I understand what's going on. Holy shit at the marketing tho.

Neither am I, so I'm not really sure which one makes more damage but I imagine having an arrow stuck in you must be really unpleasant and getting it out must hurt a lot, too. Even with it being about honor it's still super weird because Ra's was trying to kill his whole city and Oliver though 'oh hey, I need to fight him with honor'? The thought of nobody in the League rebelling against Malcom is really weird why should they kneel because of a stupid ring? It's so absurd! I actually feel even more frustrated now because why would they mix the Hebrew pronounciation in when it's still written in Arabic? And especially since the Hebrew translation would be more like 'rosh' and seldomly like a bit more like 'rash' and not like 'raysh'.

SPOILER (click to toggle) Yeah, it really feels forced. Maybe they wanted more conflict potential in the future? I don't know either since I'm not that deep in the DC universe but it just feels so weird for him to give his position to Oliver that easily. He even left his family to become the League so I think he should care a lot more about it's future.. Yeah, it just isn't like Nyssa. There's no way I see her kneeling before the killer of the love of her life!

omg superheroes everywhere, I can't--- too much too much

Oh yeah, wouldn't want to have an arrow taken out of me, nty. ;O; YESSS. That is precisely what felt weird about it! Fighting with honor trumps the safety of the city like wtf. ;l They seem like robots. Are they robots? Poor Nyssa. :c This is why Ras should have cleared it up and said PRONOUNCE MY NAME LIKE THIS OR FACE MY WRATH. :'D Mixing = more exotic? Idk. Arrow's probably not good with languages; the Russian was badly done.

I can't even imagine the pain of that! Yeah, definitely! What good is honor if that means that innocent people die? The league is way too old school for robots, haha. But they do seem kind of weird. Why would they accept that traitor as their leader when he broke their rules and betrayed them multiple times? Yes, he should or everyone should have just followed his pronounciation. I really hate it when people fuck up languages so badly, why would they do that? I can usually barely understand when people in English films speak my mother tongue they always fuck up so badly It was? I don't speak Russian so I have no idea but that makes the one scene where a Chinese guy thinks Oliver is a native speaker seems really weird!

I just watched the clip for Legends of Tomorrow and felt like 'the hell is going on?'

SPOILER (click to toggle) It's pretty weird that Sara is suddenly alive again especially since it means that somebody took her corpse from her grave which is horrible. Why does Barry suddenly work with Captain Cold again after the latest episode of the Flash? This seems so out of character for him, it's ridiculous. And Ray being able to shrink reminds me way too much of Antman. And it kind of feels like Oliver and Barry are part of the series because the other characters weren't popular enough?

I really hope the series will be to your liking! I wonder if they will incorporate any effects of the pit in that series? And I still think it's weird that they dug up her corpse. I really hope the women will kick ass and not be someone's love interest like most of the time. If I want to see romance I'll go and watch a romance movie and not a superhero series? Hawkgirl sounds really cool!

wait wait wait...the writers have the balls to kill Ra's (for good good questionmark), but bring Sara back to life in that new bloated show??!! What? Like I was already pissed off about all the fake offs with the deaths in Arrow, but this?! Nobody kills Ra's! (well except by Slade in Son of the Bat, I accept that but not brooding Olly).

Just, this season, was bad.

It's like they're blind or something. Don't they see it's Malcolm? xD I guess most people don't realize how badly a language is butchered and think it sounds great by being more "authentic." Bleh. :c There's no way Ollie sounded good. None at all.

I hate that Sara is in the new show, but not where she belongs... on Arrow. It feels SO WEIRD. So weird. ;x Blah.

Yeah, this season sucked so badly.

It didn't feel like a finale. ;l I ranted a lot on the previous page.

Yeah, they must be blind. I guess it's hard to see under all that armor xD I'm happy they at least managed for Tatsu's actor to be Japanese so she doesn't butcher the language but why did they choose someone a Korean American for Maseo? The language butchering needs to stop! I'm suffering xD

I guess they couldn't let him live because he would come for Oliver again and again? I feel weird about Sara being back because her corpse got dug out of a grave which is terrible. Comic book deaths aren't usually permanent so they probably decided to keep that?

I'm really not sure if I'll watch the next season :/
