href="/wiki/Joss_Whedon" title="Joss Whedon">Joss Whedon</a> for the television series <i><a href="/wiki/Buffy_the_Vampire_Slayer_(TV_series)" class="mw-redirect" title="Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV series)">Buffy the Vampire Slayer</a></i>. She also appears in the comic book series based on the television show. Portrayed by <a href="/wiki/Emma_Caulfield" title="Emma Caulfield">Emma Caulfield</a>, the character appears as a recurring star in the third and fourth seasons of the show before becoming a series regular in the show's fifth, sixth, and seventh seasons. The character made her last television appearance in 2003, appearing in the <a href="/wiki/Chosen_(Buffy_the_Vampire_Slayer)" title="Chosen (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)">series finale</a> of the show that aired on May 20, 2003. </p><p>Within the series' narrative, Anya was originally a human named Aud, but spent over a thousand years as Anyanka, a <a href="/wiki/Vengeance_(concept)" class="mw-redirect" title="Vengeance (concept)">vengeance</a> demon, wreaking havoc by granting the wishes of women who had been wronged by men. The character becomes human again in her first appearance, and is forced to learn what it means to be human again in subsequent episodes. Primarily, this is used by the writers for <a href="/wiki/Comic_relief" title="Comic relief">comic relief</a>; Anya has a very poor sense of what behaviors are appropriate, and speaks very bluntly and honestly, and flashbacks show that her manner was much the same before she became a demon. However, the writers have also used this for more poignant purposes, such as when Anya finds herself struggling to deal with death. Over a decade after being killed in the series finale, Anya returned as a ghost in the canonical comic book series <i><a href="/wiki/Buffy_the_Vampire_Slayer_Season_Ten" title="Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Ten">Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Ten</a>.</i> </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Character_history">Character history</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Anya_Jenkins&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Character history"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Backstory">Backstory</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Anya_Jenkins&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Backstory"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Anyanka "Anya" Jenkins was born as Aud in the 9th century in Sjornjost, a small <a href="/wiki/Scandinavia" title="Scandinavia">Scandinavian</a> village. Aud grew up raising rabbits and became an outsider in her community, which dismissed her as "odd" (a <a href="/wiki/Homophone" title="Homophone">homophone</a> for Aud), because of her strange mannerisms and out-of-the-ordinary ideas (such as not wanting to sell the rabbits she had been breeding, but instead giving them to people in the village as gifts). She eventually falls in love with the boorish <a href="/wiki/Minor_characters_of_Buffy_the_Vampire_Slayer#Olaf" class="mw-redirect" title="Minor characters of Buffy the Vampire Slayer">Olaf</a>, a <a href="/wiki/Viking" class="mw-redirect" title="Viking">Viking</a> warrior who enjoys hunting trolls and drinking at the bar. In 880, a furious Aud discovers that Olaf has cheated on her with a bar matron named Rannveig, and takes her revenge on him by using magic to transform him into a troll. Aud had previously used magic against her past lovers as well, casting spells to create boils on the penis, for example, but this act of vengeance against Olaf attracts the attention of the demon <a href="/wiki/D%27Hoffryn" title="D'Hoffryn">D'Hoffryn</a>, who offers to transform her into a vengeance demon for scorned women.

Her lack of experience with people causes her to make straightforward, often tactless remarks, which soon put her at odds with other Scooby Gang members, especially Willow, who has little trust for the ex-demon. Anya's tactlessness is played both for humor and to highlight the truth in situations where others are reluctant to be frank. This is seen most poignantly in "<a href="/wiki/The_Body_(Buffy_the_Vampire_Slayer)" title="The Body (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)">The Body</a>" when her inability to comprehend Buffy's mother's death leads to inappropriate remarks which at first make others angry, but then allow for catharsis and comfort. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Storylines_as_a_regular_cast_member">Storylines as a regular cast member</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Anya_Jenkins&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Storylines as a regular cast member"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Anya becomes a regular in Season Five of the show.

In the Season Six finale, Willow destroys The Magic Box, leaving Anya jobless in the mortal world. Anya does not enjoy her return to being a vengeance demon—her experience as a human has led to empathy, which makes exacting vengeance too painful for her to manage. She spends a summer granting half-hearted wishes and gains a reputation among demons as "Miss Soft-Serve". </p><p>When asked what direction she would like to see Anya's character go, Emma Caulfield said she hoped that in Season Seven Anya would become "kind of a badass".

D'Hoffryn asks Anya what she wants, and she asks that her vengeance be reversed. D'Hoffryn tells her the price will be the life of a vengeance demon; Anya agrees, assuming it is she who will die, but D'Hoffryn summons Halfrek, incinerating her before Anya.

For Tamy Burnett, "Anya ... stands alone as the only woman in the Buffyverse to remain unshamed and unpunished for her expressions of sexuality". Burnett argues that, among <i>Buffy</i><span class="nowrap" style="padding-left:0.1em;">'</span>s female characters, despite their varying versions of personal and/or mental strength, Anya is the only one who is truly sexually liberated. Buffy and her friends tend to be "girly girls", who learn that "Sex is bad" and have their transgressions of traditional gender performance punished; Burnett cites the loss of Angel's soul, punitive interpretations of Tara's death, and Willow's transformation into Warren among other consequences. Faith comes "the closest" after Anya to breaking these traditional patterns because, while she is "just as sexual and outspoken" as Anya, she pivotally does not achieve Anya's acceptance within the group; for Anya, this "legitimizes her perspective". She identifies this motif with typical traits of <a href="/wiki/Horror_fiction" title="Horror fiction">horror fiction</a>, citing Dawn Heinecken's feminist analysis in <i>Warrior Women of Television</i>. Anya frankly admits to masturbation and to her favourite sexual activities with Xander, and assumes that others share her attitudes. To Burnett, Anya's death in "Chosen" positions Anya as "failing to achieve [her] ultimate narrative legitimacy". Burnett concludes that "Anya's attitude toward sexual desire marks her as transgressing traditional forms of female sexuality, a significant break to the pattern by which other women on the show are constrained."<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Appearances">Appearances</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Anya_Jenkins&action=edit&section=10" title="Edit section: Appearances"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p><i><a href="/wiki/Buffy_the_Vampire_Slayer_(TV_series)" class="mw-redirect" title="Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV series)">Buffy the Vampire Slayer</a></i>: Anya appeared in 81 canon episodes.
