As introduced in <i>Buffy</i> in 1997, Angel is a <a href="/wiki/Romantic_interest" class="mw-redirect" title="Romantic interest">love interest</a> for heroine <a href="/wiki/Buffy_Summers" title="Buffy Summers">Buffy Summers</a> (<a href="/wiki/Sarah_Michelle_Gellar" title="Sarah Michelle Gellar">Sarah Michelle Gellar</a>), a young woman whose destiny as "<a href="/wiki/Slayer_(Buffy_the_Vampire_Slayer)" title="Slayer (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)">the Slayer</a>" is to fight the forces of evil, such as <a href="/wiki/Vampire_(Buffy_the_Vampire_Slayer)" title="Vampire (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)">vampires</a> and <a href="/wiki/Demon" title="Demon">demons</a>. However, their relationship is complicated by the fact that Angel is himself a vampire cursed with remorse and a human soul, which motivates him to assist Buffy in her duties as Slayer. The character's popularity led to the production of the spin-off <i>Angel</i>, which follows the character's struggle towards redemption after moving to <a href="/wiki/Los_Angeles" title="Los Angeles">Los Angeles</a>. In addition to the two television series, the character appears in the <a href="/wiki/Comic_book" title="Comic book">comic book</a> continuations of both series, as well as much other <a href="/wiki/Expanded_universe" title="Expanded universe">expanded universe</a> literature. </p><p>In the character's backstory, he was born <b>Liam</b> in <a href="/wiki/18th-century_Ireland" class="mw-redirect" title="18th-century Ireland">18th-century Ireland</a> and, after being sired, assumed the name <b>Angelus</b>, achieving infamy as the most sadistic vampire in European history. After angering a <a href="/wiki/Romani_people" title="Romani people">Romani</a> <a href="/wiki/Kalderash" title="Kalderash">clan</a>, he was cursed with his human soul, leading to great personal torment and the decision to resist the evil impulses that come with being a vampire. He later assumes the shortened name Angel, and over the course of <i>Buffy</i> and <i>Angel</i>, he matures into an altruistic champion of mankind, and learns he is a central figure of several prophecies concerning an approaching <a href="/wiki/Apocalypse" title="Apocalypse">apocalypse</a>. In later editions of the comic series, Angel adopted the identity of the masked <b>Twilight</b> and gathered a cabal of humans and demons who had become wary of the rise of multiple Slayers. </p><p><i>Angel</i> ended its five-year run in 2004.

It is not until the episode "<a href="/wiki/Angel_(Buffy_the_Vampire_Slayer_episode)" title="Angel (Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode)">Angel</a>" that the character is revealed to be a benevolent vampire from <a href="/wiki/Galway_(city)" class="mw-redirect" title="Galway (city)">Galway</a>, <a href="/wiki/Ireland" title="Ireland">Ireland</a>, who emigrated to the United States to escape his past as the sadistic Angelus after his soul was restored by a vengeful Romani clan.

Buffy and Angel initially attempt to be friends but eventually resume their romance.

During this season (1999–2000), Buffy and Angel appear in each other's shows (the <i>Buffy</i> episode "<a href="/wiki/Pangs" title="Pangs">Pangs</a>" and the <i>Angel</i> episode "<a href="/wiki/I_Will_Remember_You_(Angel)" title="I Will Remember You (Angel)">I Will Remember You</a>"), but are forced to accept that nothing has changed and they still can not or should not be together. Later in the television season, Buffy crosses over into the episode "<a href="/wiki/Sanctuary_(Angel_episode)" class="mw-redirect" title="Sanctuary (Angel episode)">Sanctuary</a>" where she attempts to kill rogue Slayer <a href="/wiki/Faith_(Buffy_the_Vampire_Slayer)" title="Faith (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)">Faith</a> (<a href="/wiki/Eliza_Dushku" title="Eliza Dushku">Eliza Dushku</a>) to whom Angel shows compassion, and Angel appears in <i>Buffy'</i>s "<a href="/wiki/The_Yoko_Factor" title="The Yoko Factor">The Yoko Factor</a>" where he squares off with Buffy's new boyfriend <a href="/wiki/Riley_Finn" title="Riley Finn">Riley</a> (<a href="/wiki/Marc_Blucas" title="Marc Blucas">Marc Blucas</a>). They finally decide to stay away from each other's business and stick to phone calls at this point. In the season one finale, Angel is given some hope at redemption when the Shanshu prophecy reveals that a vampire with a soul may eventually become human after fulfilling his role in the upcoming apocalypse. </p><p>In season two (2000–2001), Angel discovers that Wolfram &amp; Hart has brought his <a href="/wiki/Vampire_(Buffyverse)#Vampire&#39;s_siring_and_rebirth" class="mw-redirect" title="Vampire (Buffyverse)">sire</a> and former lover <a href="/wiki/Darla_(Buffy_the_Vampire_Slayer)" title="Darla (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)">Darla</a> (<a href="/wiki/Julie_Benz" title="Julie Benz">Julie Benz</a>) back from the dead in human form. Although Darla is intent on bringing back Angelus, Angel hopes to save her soul and help her seek redemption while she still has a chance. However, just as it looks like he might succeed, Wolfram &amp; Hart bring in Drusilla to turn Darla back into a vampire.

Eventually losing faith in his mission, Angel has sex with Darla in the hopes of losing his soul. Instead, he experiences an <a href="/wiki/Epiphany_(feeling)" title="Epiphany (feeling)">epiphany</a> and realizes that the good fight is still worth fighting. A disgusted Darla flees L.A. and Angel reconciles with his friends, who eventually forgive him. Angel also appears in <i>Buffy</i> season five's "<a href="/wiki/Forever_(Buffy_the_Vampire_Slayer)" class="mw-redirect" title="Forever (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)">Forever</a>", comforting Buffy after <a href="/wiki/Joyce_Summers" title="Joyce Summers">her mother</a>'s death. </p><p>Season three (2001–2002) sees Angel struggle with <a href="/wiki/Father" title="Father">fatherhood</a> when Darla returns pregnant with his child, despite the fact that vampires supposedly are unable to conceive.

Holtz kills himself and Angel is framed for his death by Holtz's lover, prompting Connor to take revenge by sinking his father to the bottom of the ocean. Over the course of this season, Angel's friendship with his colleague Cordelia evolves into romance, but circumstances prevent him from ever confessing his feelings. </p><p>In <i>Angel'</i>s fourth season (2002–2003), Angel is rescued from the ocean by his former friend Wesley. As Los Angeles crumbles under signs of the apocalypse, Angel is forced to cope with the romantic relationship between his son and Cordelia.

Angelus, however, manages to escape, kills the Beast for fun and wreaks havoc until an old friend, Willow, manages to return his soul for the second time. It is eventually revealed that Cordelia has been possessed by the Beast's master, <a href="/wiki/Jasmine_(Angel)" class="mw-redirect" title="Jasmine (Angel)">Jasmine</a> (<a href="/wiki/Gina_Torres" title="Gina Torres">Gina Torres</a>), a <a href="/wiki/Deity" title="Deity">higher power</a> who manipulated many events in Angel's life in order to be born in this world.

Angel accepts when they agree to rewrite Connor's memories of growing up in hell, allowing him to live a normal life with a new family. Afterwards, Angel appears in the <a href="/wiki/End_of_Days_(Buffy_the_Vampire_Slayer)" class="mw-redirect" title="End of Days (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)">penultimate</a> and <a href="/wiki/Chosen_(Buffy_the_Vampire_Slayer)" title="Chosen (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)">final</a> episodes of <i>Buffy</i>, presenting Buffy with an amulet, which is given to Spike, to help her battle the First Evil. </p><p>In the fifth and final season of <i>Angel</i> (2003–2004), the character has made a <a href="/wiki/Deal_with_the_Devil" title="Deal with the Devil">deal with the Devil</a> to become <a href="/wiki/Chief_executive_officer" title="Chief executive officer">CEO</a> of Wolfram &amp; Hart's Los Angeles office. All of his friends have also become W&amp;H employees, hoping to reform the organization from within under Angel's supervision. Angel's life this season is complicated by the increasingly blurred line between good and evil, the deaths of loved ones Cordelia and <a href="/wiki/Winifred_Burkle" title="Winifred Burkle">Fred</a> (<a href="/wiki/Amy_Acker" title="Amy Acker">Amy Acker</a>), and the possibility that the Shanshu prophecy may in fact be referring to Spike (who is now also a vampire with a soul and has joined the team) and not Angel. Allowing his friends to believe he is being corrupted, Angel secretly plots to bring down the Senior Partners of Wolfram &amp; Hart by assassinating the Circle of the Black Thorn, the Partners' primary agents on Earth, even signing away his prophesied humanity in the process to convince them of his complex deception. Realizing that he may never be able to fully stop the forces of evil, Angel and his friends enter into a suicidal battle against the armies of the Senior Partners, and the series ends with the question of their survival unanswered. </p><p>Between 2001 and 2004, Joss Whedon and <a href="/wiki/Jeph_Loeb" title="Jeph Loeb">Jeph Loeb</a> developed a 4-minute pilot episode for <i><a href="/wiki/Buffy_the_Animated_Series" class="mw-redirect" title="Buffy the Animated Series">Buffy the Animated Series</a></i>, which was set during the show's first season.

Its stories aim to be respectful to the storylines featured in IDW's forty-four issue <i>Angel</i> run,<sup id="cite_ref-36" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-36"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>36<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> and maintains a very tight continuity with <i><a href="/wiki/Buffy_the_Vampire_Slayer_Season_Nine" title="Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Nine">Buffy Season Nine</a></i> and other related comics.<sup id="cite_ref-37" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-37"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>37<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> In his series, Angel faces the looming threat of his now unstable former mentor Whistler, who helped bring about his transformation into Twilight, as well as his two dangerous former acolytes, half-demons Pearl and Nash, in addition a group of British Slayers who cannot forgive his actions as Twilight. Along with Faith, he lives in Giles' London apartment where they are joined by Giles' ageless aunts, witches Lavinia and Sophronia. Angel intends to honor Giles' memory, and seeks to collect fragments of Giles' soul from magical items as part of a plan to resurrect him. In the series' conclusion, Giles is successfully resurrected, albeit as a young teenage boy, and the gang pursue Whistler, Pearl and Nash to a rooftop, where they plan to unleash a horrific magical plague on the world as an inelegant means to restore magic to the universe. Nash is killed, and Angel is able to persuade Whistler to see the error of his ways, successfully limiting to the extent of the plague to an area of <a href="/wiki/London_Borough_of_Hackney" title="London Borough of Hackney">Hackney</a> in London. In the season's denouement, Faith returns to America alongside Giles, while Angel remains behind to guard over the plagued neighborhood, now called Magic Town, where residents&#8212;magically mutated into all manner of creature&#8212;are already causing problems. </p><p>A second volume of the series launched alongside <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> in 2014. Angel defends Magic Town against threats such as <a href="/wiki/Amy_Madison" title="Amy Madison">Amy Madison</a> during Faith's absence, and acquires several new allies: Eldre Koh, an ancient Nitobe demon freed from his prison by the end of magic; Detective Brandt; Rory, a magically-mutated bartender; and the mutant Tricia and her boyfriend Parker. Angel is also aided by Sophronia and Lavinia, as well as Nadira, a Slayer who hated him for his actions as Twilight but found inner peace after being mutated, and has a deep connection with the magic of Magic Town, which has become sentient. Following Illyria's death in <i>Buffy Season Nine</i>, Angel finds Fred alive again, having been restored by the reset of the laws of magic; she is forced to share her body with Illyria but is able to keep the ancient demon mostly under control. Faith also returns, now working for Zane Pharmaceuticals. A crossover with <i>Buffy Season Ten</i> reveals a new demon villain: Archaeus, who sired the Master and is able to control all the vampires from that bloodline, including Angel, Spike and Drusilla. Angel travels to San Francisco to help Buffy combat the demon lord, discovering that Buffy and Spike are now in a relationship, which Angel believes will not last. Meanwhile, Faith and Fred discover Drusilla in Magic Town, building a vampire army for Archaeus, who follows Angel back to London. The season ends with a conflict between Archaeus and his vampire army (including Drusilla and Detective Brandt), and Angel and his makeshift 'family' (Faith, Fred/Illyria, Koh, Nadira, Sophronia and Lavinia, and the Magic Town populace). Observing the battle, the sentient magic is almost convinced to join Archaeus, but ultimately defends Nadira from him and traps Archaeus inside a statue. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Reception">Reception</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Angel_(Buffy_the_Vampire_Slayer)&amp;action=edit&amp;section=5" title="Edit section: Reception"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p><i><a href="/wiki/SFX_(magazine)" title="SFX (magazine)">SFX</a></i> magazine named Angel as the third greatest vampire in television and film, with rival Spike in first place.
