I theorized that Kelly was born with Grimm abilities already awoken, like he could already see Wessen woged and be just aware of it, and is okay with it. I remember a Wessen woging in front of him and he was smiling. I don’t know if that was what they were going for or that was just “Look at the cute baby.” Thoughts?

Hmmm…that’s an interesting theory! I actually kind of like that idea: that he grew up seeing Wesen from Day One so it was never strange to him. Although it would certainly make him unique in his world, as from what little we get in the show it seems like almost all Wesen get their first woge as teenagers, kind of like puberty, and Grimms don’t necessarily have it from birth either though it’s unclear exactly when the onset is or how consistent it is.

I wonder what about having a Hexenbiest mother and a Grimm father would do that? Or could it have something to do with the twinning spell somehow? The rules of magic in this world are murky. :/

I was rewatching grimm and Monroe was translating a page on the wesen that aunt Marie was said to be with in that episode, and said something about them having “very large sausages” and I suddenly realized why Nick was making the very dismayed “I don’t want to be here for this, why” kind of face that he did. He looked so done with everything at that moment.

Oh…my god. Really?! How have I seen that episode like six times and missed the innuendo in that!?

“Just a second, this is interesting. Steinadlers seem to be involved with the military. Like, heroic, noble… Apparently with very large… sausages? I don’t think I’m translating that correctly.”
 – Monroe in “Three Coins in a Fuchsbau”

Aunt Marie.

Why did they have to cancel the show? There was so much to be done.

I know right!?

I still want to know how Grimm powers are passed on, and whether the Wesen council ever rebuilt itself, and whether Kelly actually has powers, and what the triplets are like, and whether Eve ever makes her way back to Juliette and learns to forgive herself, and the history of Grimms! Like Jesus H. Christ tell me about the FIRST GRIMM! Let some case come back to haunt the Burkhardts so that we can get young Marie and Kelly Sr. flashbacks! Let some of the damn one-offs that are so beloved come back and dig deeper into their There was SO much more story to be told. So much more of the world to discover. Six seasons was actually kind of amazing for such a niche show but it still was not enough!

Hey, how you doing? Listen, I was wondering if you knew about an elephant like wesen that showed up during one of the earlier seasons, I don’t remember which or if it’s even real, but I remember in human form it was this pretty obese guy and they didn’t woge often cause their tusks were ivory and they’d get killed? They were scared of mice too. And I searched it up but the only was from season 5? Like I said, I could be imagining it, but I don’t think so. Thanks, have a lovely day! 💗.

I don’t recall this Wesen myself, and I haven’t been able to find it anywhere other than the brief appearance of one in the journals in season 5, as you mentioned.

There are a few Wesen with tusks or horns, but none of them are mentioned as being hunted for them as far as I recall. There’s the Schinderdiv with large-ish tusks and the Fuilcre with large-ish horns. There’s also a unicorn-like Wesen called an Abath, with a single horn protruding from its forehead, but again…I don’t think this is the one you’re after.

At some point I plan to do a Grimm rewatch to finish the Grimm Stats and the glossary page. When I do I’ll be sure to keep a lookout!

THERE NEEDS TO BE A SEASON 7 OF GRIMM

LISTEN. I agree with you. I agree so hard, in fact, that for NaNoWriMo this year I wrote 50,000 words of a Grimm season 7 fanfiction. I’m working on finishing it up, editing it, and filling in some plotholes. Once I do I’ll post it on AO3 and link it here. In the meantime, if anyone has any good Grimm post-finale fic recs, feel free to reblog/reply and add them!

I’m the only one who thinks the worsts seasons of Grimm was season 2, 3(but 3 only gets better when Trubel appears for the first time) and 5(until the stupid Nadalind stuff) ? Mari.

I can’t say I agree…I loved every season of Grimm except maybe the back half of 4, and even that was interesting. I mean the N/a/dalind stuff in 5 was 1000% gross, and I will always feel like the writing decisions made in season 5 killed the show. But even so the season had some really strong episodes, and possibly the best finale they’ve ever done. It had just lost too much of the audience by that point to salvage the ratings.

Season 6 was the weakest season IMO, but then I think it couldn’t help but be weaker because it was slashed in half, episode-wise, and because it was an abrupt final season trying to live up to five years of story build-up. And although I loved it as a season and loved parts of the ending, I don’t really feel like they paid all of that off.

Granted, it’s not as bad as some highly-anticipated endings (nothing will ever be worse than the endings to Lost or HIMYM). And to be honest, the Grimm writers played my heart like a fiddle to the point that I didn’t even notice a lot of the flaws on my first or second viewing of the series finale.

But now that I’m removed from the emotional aspects of it a tiny bit, I can see that it still wasn’t completely worthy of all that came before. So if I had to choose a worst season, it would probably be 5 or 6, despite individual episodes that were fantastic.

So I’m going through my gifs and clips of Grimm to fill some of the outstanding gif requests in my inbox, and Nick’s face when Eve says “I know you’re here because you loved me once,” Nick’s FUCKING FACE kills me every time. Like my god, can’t you see it, Eve? Can’t you see he never once stopped?!

I’ll never be over it.
