I love all of you. Leave it to Castiel to take someone saying they thought they were God literally and inform them that, "God has a beard. In later seasons, a big part of Castiel's story became his journey as a father figure to Jack, and that came to a head when Castiel sacrificed himself for Jack, promising himself to the Empty to save his son.
In order to save Dean's life, Castiel called upon his deal with the Empty. Realizing that true happiness could be achieved by speaking his truth, he told Dean that he loved him. And with an "I love you," Cas found happiness, and the Empty took him and Billie away, thereby saving Dean. It was a devastating but heroic exit. Home TV Castiel's 11 best moments on Supernatural.

Castiel barely finished uttering the words before he was dead. Of course, with two episodes still remaining, there's still a chance Castiel could make yet another miraculous return.
As such, it would be interesting to see how his declaration will be dealt with. As it stands, however, it looked very much like Supernatural attempted to have its cake and eat it too. John Atkinson has been a news and feature writer for Screen Rant since late Before that, he had articles published across a number of different outlets. A graduate of the University of London, John was raised on a small island by television and movies.
As such, he pursued a career in screenwriting and film journalism when it became apparent that actually becoming Spider-Man was impossible. John's fondest wish is to one day produce a film of his own. Until then, he's more than happy to spend countless hours just talking about them. He does, however, become close friends with the brothers, who encourage him to be kinder, more caring and more selfless.
Unlike some of his brethren, Castiel still has faith in God , though not to the zealot-like extent displayed by Michael. While he admits he may not always understand what God wants and may question his reasoning, Castiel always follows his father to the best of his abilities.
Anna Milton and Lucifer have both displayed this attitude, with Anna calling him a hypocrite for refusing to rebel in order to gain more freedom. Castiel briefly loses this faith after Joshua reveals that God doesn't care and falls into a depression for some time. However, when God resurrects him for a second time, his faith returns. Castiel frequently exhibits what could be referred to as affection towards Dean, and seems to express regret, hesitance, and anger at several points.
Being around the Winchesters, paired with his experiences in the War, have taught Castiel several "tricks" that have helped him during the show. While not possessing free will in the same sense as a human, Castiel has learned how to bend the rules at times, like in season 4. He was also able to distract Meg long enough to use her. This was similar to a trick Uriel performed to free Alastair , Castiel used Meg for his trick to free himself, from a ring of holy fire Abandon All Hope.
It is also possible he learned from the demon Crowley to wipe out loyalists of his adversary, Raphael. Castiel also considers himself to be the Winchester's personal guardian angel. When Castiel is brought back from the dead after Lucifer kills him, his personality begins to shift. During Season 6 , Castiel becomes more prideful. It is because of this pride that Castiel makes a deal with Crowley , and starts the civil war in heaven.
During this time Castiel showed extremely high ambition, doing everything he could to open the door of Purgatory. He also displayed his intelligence, being capable of tricking Dean, Sam, Raphael, and even Crowley well known as a crafty trickster. Upon absorbing the souls, Castiel's hubris grew to the extent that he claimed to be the new God. It was later revealed that others, such as Death , thought of him only as a mutated angel. Previously acting kind, assuring, and fierce at times, Castiel had now become almost purely cold and absolute in his decisions.
This is displayed when he kills Raphael without any second thoughts. Mere seconds later, he demanded that Dean, Bobby, and Sam kneel before him and be by his side. Castiel claimed he would destroy them if they forgot their place and rose up against him. However, he still had some lingering affection for them, trusting them enough to leave them alone.
They soon realized that he was out of control and that being influenced by the Leviathans. Later, when Castiel returns to his original personality, he feels incredibly guilty and goes back to his friends for help. Knowing Dean is furious with him for breaking Sam's wall , Castiel expresses true remorse for his actions and swears to do all he can to make up for what he did.
After his third resurrection, Castiel lost his memories and took on a more human personality, though he was still more distant than normal humans. He expressed affection for his wife Daphne Allen , and retained his desire to help people as shown by the fact that when he rediscovered his healing powers, he used them to heal people in need, also showing great compassion.
While shocked by the existence of demons, he took it relatively well once it was explained to him. He was perceptive enough to realize that Dean couldn't forgive "Cass" for what he had done and felt betrayed and that he himself was the Cass mentioned after overhearing some of Dean's conversation with Meg.
In his human mindset, he had no idea of what he was capable of and was nervous with the idea of using his powers to kill demons when he had no idea how. However, despite this, he displayed courage in agreeing to try and seemed to still possess an instinctual knowledge of how to use them as he quickly figured out what to do.
After recovering his memories, Castiel's normal personality more or less returned, and he was overcome with guilt over what he had done, how many he had killed, and for releasing the Leviathans, even questioning why he was still alive.
Following his awakening, his personality was greatly modified, due to a combination of what he had taken from Sam and his own guilt. It made him inattentive, overly calm, uncaring and seemingly dim. He also became a pacifist, and refused to fight, even when being attacked, as well as being overly optimistic, perceiving many negative things in a positive way. During this time he developed a unique relationship with Meg, a demon, as she was his caretaker during his insanity. He showed open attraction to her, calling her a "thorny beauty".
Although Meg doesn't return the feelings at the start, a year later she openly flirts with Castiel, and Castiel seemingly returns the attraction.
In Survival of the Fittest , Castiel explains that his pacifism comes from being afraid of causing more damage with his actions. However, he agrees to break his pacifism and help stop the Leviathans, possibly out of loyalty to Dean as he agrees after Dean says he'll likely die trying to stop them.
After agreeing, he doesn't hesitate to fight, helping to dispatch Royce and getting in front of Dean to protect him from Dick Roman and later restraining the Leviathan leader so Dean can kill him. Castiel also displays a bleak view on his resurrections: instead of believing it to be a gift from God for his service, he now sees his resurrections as punishment for his actions, telling Dean "I see now it's a punishment resurrection, it gets worse every time.
After he and Dean were sent to Purgatory, his sanity and original personality was restored, although he himself states nobody could ever be sure if he is indeed sane.
Following his return in A Little Slice of Kevin , Castiel displayed a slightly more laid-back personality and a much less detached persona and showed human emotions as well as a taste for human things, as he commented how he missed watching TV.
He has also developed a strong desire for penitence, looking for anyway possible to redeem himself for the devastation he caused Heaven and his fellow angels. Since becoming human briefly, Castiel has become more human. He expresses more of an appreciation for human things and develops more human emotions such as romantic attraction. He also became less serious, drinking a beer with Sam and Dean and joking around. He proved to be good enough at being human that he was able to fool law enforcement and pose as an FBI agent, something he could never do successfully before even with coaching from Dean.
Even after becoming an angel again, Castiel hasn't seemed to lose his human emotions, getting very angry when he realized who Gadreel was and freely expressing it and comforting a distraught Dean, understanding why he was so upset rather than being confused as he would have been in the past.
While briefly human, he was ready to embrace his new status, excited to have Sam and Dean as his teachers and seemed to see his return to being an angel as a necessary evil more than something he wanted and called his stealing of the grace of Theo as barbaric and something that made him as bad as the other angels. Castiel also seems to now understand human ways better, able to drive and steal a car, a skill he never previously showed, though he still lacks full knowledge of everything as he didn't know to get gas.
He also developed a taste for human food, something that was made harder by the return of his angel powers and completely lost any former disgust he had towards Sam, finally understanding why he'd done everything he did. Castiel also learned that the ends don't justify the means when it means sacrificing lives. Thanks to Metatron, Castiel has also finally gained the ability to understand Dean's constant movie and TV show references, something that had previously frustrated him into always saying "I don't understand that reference.
Castiel seems to have a fondness for his usual appearance as he never changed until he briefly believed he was human. At first he may not have changed out of lack of necessity, but after returning from Purgatory , he put back on his usual outfit and was very pleased to be able to do so.
He seemed to be particularly fond of his trenchcoat as even insane he wore it and was seen to only reluctantly let it go when as a human he was unable to afford to cleaning it. After becoming an angel again, he donned a new trenchcoat and suit, once again displaying his fondness for that particular attire. In the aftermath of being put under the Attack Dog Spell by the witch Rowena , it, according to Metatron , made Castiel broken and paralyzed due to the trauma and due to him attacking other people, including Dean.
Even after Castiel was free from the spell, it still has also apparently "scarred" Castiel so deep that Cass wouldn't even leave the bunker. We're not complaining, because Castiel's relationship with Dean is great, but going by the show's own logic, it should have been Michael. This may seem like a cheap shot, but it's an honest question: how on Earth has Jimmy Novak's trench coat lasted so long?
We know that the coat has been destroyed and recreated more than once, and the coat is so integral to Castiel's look that he always just puts it back on again, but at this point the question isn't just how-- it's why. Castiel's Columbo-inspired aesthetic is memorable, but we have to know: is it really the same coat that Cas first borrowed?
Does Cas keep a cosmic closet full of identical coats? Do angel powers extend to magically cleaning coats after bloody battles? The writers never really explained why Cas is so attached to the coat or how he maintains it, so fans just keep wondering. Castiel might be an angel himself, but that doesn't mean he gets along with the other angels. Cas has had a tumultuous relationship with them, as he has gone from up-and-comer to outcast to god to outcast again during the run of the show.
The problem is, there doesn't seem to be any real rhyme or reason to the angels' opinion of Castiel. Basically, the one throughline for the angels is that they think whatever they need to think of Castiel to make the plot move forward. If they're supposed to cower in fear of his mutant power?
They do. If Castiel is supposed to be an outcast, then they ostracize him. Basically, it's kind of impossible to tell whether any angel is going to be Castiel's ally or not. Supposedly, an angel's true form and true voice are so awesome to behold and behear that ordinary humans would get vaporized or some such nonsense from doing so.
Supernatural has held fast to this arbitrary rule, never once showing Castiel's true form to the audience. At this point, fans have started to wonder if it's just because of laziness. Supernatural has shown all kinds of impossible sights over the years. While the effects tend to be pretty low-budget, you have to wonder if they don't show the angels' true form because they never actually imagined it, instead choosing to just vaguely describe it.
Ah, well, maybe someday we'll see Castiel unleashed. What, exactly, would you say to the girl whose father you were currently wearing like a shirt? There's no way Castiel's relationship with Claire Novak could ever be described as healthy, given that her deceased father's body has become Castiel's permanent vessel. Castiel has never proven to be adept at social situations. You'd probably become a rebel, too, if your dad had been replaced with an angel that didn't know you.
Can you really blame Claire for acting out, or the relationship for becoming uncomfortable? The whole dynamic admittedly makes sense-- and attempted to set up Claire for the failed Wayward Sisters spinoff-- but honestly we'd rather we didn't have to cringe at it anymore.
One of Castiel's core personality traits is his willingness to believe in the goodness of others, especially when they present as an ally of God. This has led him to allying with some unsavory characters, though some were to be expected: teaming up with angels like Metatron or Uriel makes sense for a trusting angel, at least until he learned of their ulterior motives. There are some alliances that Castiel just should never have made. In later seasons, Castiel even began tolerating certain demons, making alliances and uneasy truces with some powerful figures in the underworld.
Crowley and Meg were chief among these-- though Castiel ended up betraying Crowley in their first team-up.
