Spike didn’t go through any transformation in season 1 😒
 
I say “he has no control over it” because it is biological it happens to all dragons
 
you’re twisting my words to justify why you hate this change
 
and you’re current hatred at spike which is completely unfair

Has no control over it. You say that as if he knew about it since season 1. You are just wasting your time here.

If him getting wings (which is biological so he has no control over it) is enough to make you hate him then maybe you never really cared about his character as much as you say you did
Blue Lightning

Spike is now on “I don’t care about this character” list now. That’s my view and opinion and no one can change that no matter what anyone says.

There’s nothing wrong about it. Some people just had a set headcanon that involved him not having wings, so now that the show broke it, they’re pissed and pretend this is bad development, because its not the development they wanted.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with them showing Spike is slowly growing up, and letting him take a small step into maturity without changing anything else about his character. They handlded it perfectly as well, making it relevant but also lowkey because its not supposed to be a huge change, but rather him just reaching puberty.
The only problem here are the people who think not having wings was the only thing making Spike unique.
If that’s all they could see about his character, then they didn’t appreciate his character in the first place, so no big loss.
 
This.  
His new wings could also be useful in episode 24 and the season finale.

You could at least give him a chance.

Again. There were many ways the writers could of gone with that then. But whatever. Spike is just going to be on a “ignore character” list for me now. On that final note whatevs.

I don’t get what is cringy about not agreeing with the wing change, but whatever floats your boat I guess?

And I just brought up good change and bad change
 
You know I think you’re looking too deep into this and blowing it out of proportion the writers are finally closing the chapter of why spike doesn’t have his wings and you want to call that bad change

@Blue Lightning  
I’m with Northern on this, you make me cringe. As for bad change, no. Spike is better with wings. He was useless, now he will be useFUL!

@northern haste  
Yeah people suddenly being offended by Apu is cringe worthy.

It’s an example to the subject of what bad change is. come on keep up.
