Every time I see those posts about characters going through hell and still being loving and kind and not letting what they have been through turn them heartless or cold, I think of Juliette. Juliette went through so much in those first three and a half seasons of Grimm and never let her struggles or pain change her in any way. She was strong enough to get through them and still be the same person. She was more aware and had a better understanding of everything but more or less, she was the same, and then the Hexenbiest took over and I think the thing that I liked the most about this is that Grimm showed us that Juliette would never have just changed like that on her own. She wouldn’t have just turned against Nick, against her friends or hurt innocent people if she was in control because that was not who she was. That was the Hexenbiest and they essentially had to turn Juliette into something that was poisoning her, something that was killing her humanity in order to show that the only way she wouldn’t come out the other side stronger and better person is if Juliette wasn’t even there anymore, if she had no control over what was happening.
