ep. 1 // ep. 16

Okay....I don't even know where to start from. That last scene from when Selim noticed Canan and telling the kids to get out to her death, just wow! The acting from all four of the was amazing. I'm still in sort of denial. There's a small part that thinks she's not dead but maybe be in a coma for s2 but then my logical side and the side that has a degree in biomedicine is like "nah, girl, she got shot in the carotid. Very difficult to survive" I feel like everything was too on the nose, too much foreshadowing Canan not being there in the future which is why I'm still a little suspicious. Whatever the case I'm excitex to see how this changes the Kara family, especially Yağmur, like her mom was her best friend.

My baby Akgün!! Cannot believe he became the one thing he didnt want to😭😭😭

You know when I heard they were going to Istanbul for s2, ngl I was a little sad but seeing what happened in the finale it'll make sense for the Kara family to move there. Like I can even see Emel and them moving there too, so they can be there for Selim and the kids. I'm gonna miss Ceşme but I feel like they'll go back there one day

My Akmur babies...i'm so scared and nervous for them. I honestly have no clue as to what will happen to them. But I trust the writers *shocking* they've done an amazing job with them throughout this whole season and I'm sure they will continue with that

Speaking of the writers, they were like "Y'all want Akmur soulmates, parallels??? Well here you go. They both get to watch the most important figure in their life die the exact same way forever changing them...and bonus they'll both be wearing the exact same color shirt" Damn these writers they know exactly how to mess with our feelings

Selçuk.....Honestly have no idea how I feel about him anymore. You know, in the earlier episodes when we found out Semiha turned him in, I was always surprised that Selçuk spoke respectfully about her and it felt like he had no resentment about what she did. But holy shit was I wrong! I cannot believe he did that. I've been loving his growing relationship with Akgün recently and shit this is gonna hit Akgün so hard. I feel really bad for Semiha tho, like one of your son kills you and the other gets to watch you die

I feel like Selim is going to be filled with so much rage and go even harder at getting Halil Sadi. I watched without subs but I think Selim told Canan that he was going to stop with all the chasings and dangerous stuff so I believe that once Selim gets Halil Sadi, he'll finally retire (and be that peaceful smiling guy from Yağmur's dream😭😭😭)

Anyways, so so excited for s2. Have no idea what to do for 3 months. Am watching Kardeşlerim atm but does not hit in the same way😩😩

I still believe there’s at least a 0.1% chance that she’s still alive and I’m holding on to that for all it’s worth, degree in biomedicine be damned (this is diziland after all logic tends not to prevail lmao). I agree there was so much foreshadowing in the episode that it made it almost tooooo obvious that she was going to die, so maybe they were trying to trick us or something.

Although, the writers went on a chat room on Twitter and they talked about some of their plans for s2. From what I understand, whether or not Canan is actually dead is a bit up in the air. I think it all depends on Funda and whether or not she wants to stay.

Either way, Canan’s (possible) death absolutely destroyed me. I cried for over an hour that night about it and I’m still so sad. She had the best relationship with everyone. She was a such a rock in that family. Everyone could rely on her, go to her for help, get advice, support, and understanding. She was so so strong willed, fierce and protective. Canan was just such a light for everyone in the show. If she really is dead, I just feel so sad that all of that will be missing from everyone’s life.

I worry about how Canan’s death is going to affect Selim. I just feel like he’s going to be completely obsessed with getting Halil Sadi and is going to start neglecting Yağmur and Altay (not on purpose of course), that he’s going to become the old workaholic that he used to be and that the kids are going to have to grieve on their own and kinda fend for themselves. I also feel like Yağmur is really going to try to take up that mother role and isn’t going to be able to grieve herself and will focus on helping everyone else in the family. I’m just so worried for this family 😞

What happened to Akgün hurt so much. Akgün kinda really prided himself on not being a killer, y’know? It kinda proved to him that his mother and Yağmur were right to see a light in him. And now…..I’m so worried about how that’s going to affect him, about how guilty he’s going to feel. I know he’s going to be so scared of disappointing Yağmur and Selim. I’m wondering how they’re going to react to everything. They mentioned multiple times in the episode that they were worried about how he’s going to react when he sees Gökhan. Tbh as long as they believe him, I’m okay. (This was another thing the writers commented on. I think they said they were thinking about doing a time jump and that Akgün might go to jail 😞😞)

I’m also so worried about Akmur. They’re both going to be so busy dealing with their own things, it’s going to be so difficult for them to comfort each other. All of those lighthearted moments from the earlier episodes are going to be so hard to come by 😞 Although if there is a time jump, their reunion is going to be EVERYTHINGGGG

Oh god and Selcuk. I was so in love with how Selcuk and Akgün’s relationship had developed. They had come so far and for this absolute bomb to drop, like goddddd even I felt betrayed. I can’t begin to imagine how Akgün is going to feel when he finds out the truth. Just thinking about it makes me want to cry. And for some reason, I still want to give Selcuk the benefit of the doubt. Like I mean, he loves Akgün, doesn’t he??! That wasn’t a lie, right?! And ordering Semiha’s death is pretty unforgivable, but maybe he regrets it?!!! Maybe he really loved her and there’s something else going on that Gökhan didn’t know about, RIGHT??!!?!! I’m just soooo 😩😩😩😩😩😩

And honestly I’m kinda surprised with the direction they went with Gökhan. When they first introduced him in ep16, I really thought he was going to be a straight villain, but they humanized him so much through his run on the show. Even after he kidnapped Yağmur and Selcuk, they still managed to vindicate him in the end. Between the revelation of Semiha’s death and then that part when he starting forgetting everything in front of Akgün, I ended up feeling so so bad for him. Especially the forgetting part, he looked like a lost little kid, it broke my heart. And even when he raised his gun at Akgün, I could understand him. I mean he was disoriented and lost and all he saw in front of him was someone pointing a gun at him. I get it. Oh and his last words about how he’s going to his mom now 😢

I’m telling you, just everything about this finale WRECKED me.
