In Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel's ex-girlfriend, Darla, shows up to wreak havoc from the get-go.

7. In Twilight, Mike falls in 'love' with Bella, although her friend is in love with Mike. He is human, and goofy, a perfect show of a normal human being.
In Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Xander falls in love with Buffy, even though her friend Willow is deeply in love with Xander. Xander is a comical, goofy human, and the only 'normal' person in the show.

8. In Twilight, Edward pops up periodically, as if a stalker, to warn or save Bella.
In Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel pops up to warn Buffy of bad things, appearing to stalk her sometimes.

9. In Twilight, Bella gets pregnant with Edward's baby. Because the baby is a vampire child, she has to be turned into a vampire to have the child.

12. In Twilight, both Edward and Jacob love Bella. They both compete to have her.

14. In Twilight, Edward occasionally pops up in Bella's room in the middle of the night.

15. In Twilight, Edward tells Bella that he can't be around her, that he puts her in danger, and then leaves - but later returns to her.
In Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel tells Buffy that he is bad for her, and distracts her - but he later returns despite this.

16. In Twilight, Edward attempts to kill himself by standing in the sun, which will bring out the Volturi and in essence get him killed.

In Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Buffy is the one person in the world assigned to kill vampires.

"Impervious" and "assigned to kill" are two different things, darl.

But yes, for the majority of this blog post, Twilight has appeared to copy, or at least, steal ideas from Buffy.

The main point I was attempting to get across is that both are incredibly unique and important to the vampire world. I was not in any way trying to say that impervious, and kill, were anywhere near to the same thing.
