They didn't seem to want Anna to remember she was an angel and so they gave her a new life to live, whereas Metatron wants Cas to remember so that when he comes to heaven he can tell him his story. Really not liking Metatron right now.

that's not quite correct, because Anna fell and was reborn, and actually they wanted to KILL her, because it's illegal for angels to fall and be reborn. So, maybe the difference is just the choice? Anna ripped her own grace out and fell, whereas Castiel got his stolen and then was "sent" to earth. I'm guessing since all the other angels were sent to earth against their will, they'll probably still be fully powered angels in hand-created meat-suits?

That's another little continuity thing that they might want to address - why angels come with meat-suits already. Surely not ALL the angels of heaven had gotten permission from their vessel-lines.

Been seeing a lot of things where people have been making comparisons between things from this season and Season 5 Episode 4 (The End).

Yeah, I'm of mixed feelings when it comes to the possible return of The End. The problem I mean, it'd be cool from a story-arc point of view, but I don't actually want them to do it. That's a future that they avoided by Dean getting back in touch with Sam. Plus, as much as I love Chuck, his time has passed - unless he actually came back as God, then I don't want to see him again. It would retroactively make for bad storytelling. In my opinion anyway.

I think they all did a fabulous job of tearing our hearts out. Mark with his 'I deserve to be loved' and 'forgiveness' speech. Jared and Jensen with their brother speech. And Misha with how he looked at the end when the angels were falling from the sky like comets (which I loved the Special Effects for).

Agree completely!

Can't wait for next season. Keeping my fingers crossed though that Kevin translates the Angel tablet and they find a restoration spell or something to bring back Gabriel and Balthazar (and I kinda want Samandriel back too). Plus Dean and Sam need to get their butts up to heaven (again) in search of Metatron to make him pay and get Cas' grace back.

Yes! I've love that so much. (Well, Balthazar not so much, but that's just because my personality doesn't mesh well with the character or the actor - I know other people love him.) I'd love it if Samandriel came back though, I know we didn't get to see much of him, but I loved him on sight - and the actor-kid did an amazing job. It'd be nice to see him not in immense pain and crying.

I'm so excited for the Asylum Con. Especially to see Mark and congratulate him on an amazing job, but also to give Misha a hug for playing his character so amazingly that just a second is all we need to know that something is different or wrong about him.

I hope you have fun! It's a shame Jared can't be there to, because yeah, both him and Mark really did an amazing job. Hopefully I'll be able to tell him so at VanCon.
