But I had to voice how much I loved this finale, and how impressed I am at how much Arrow has turned itself around since this time last year. It came off some of its weakest episodes and made probably my second favorite season yet. Highlights include Episodes 6, 8, 9, 15, 16, 17, and 23. This finale built and built to the standoff on the boat which had my heart racing. Arrow: Season 5 was by far my favourite of this year's four seasons, and what a way to bring it all full circle in this finale.

One minor gripe, as a timeline nerd - The Flash has caused a problem with the big cliffhanger. Episode 22 of Arrow included Oliver's birthday, May 16th, and with this following straight after this is something like May 17th or 18th (I didn't keep track, but approximately). We know Iris was set to die on May 23rd, meaning Episode 22 of The Flash was May 22nd. And at the beginning of that episode I believe I remember Felicity texting him saying they've been trying to find a solution over Iris but have found nothing... so they've spoiled that a week after this episode Felicity is back at work? Or just a continuity error? Probably a continuity error.
