The Supernatural Season 5 character of Anna Milton receives some great closure in her storyline, the ending of her Supernatural run is very emotional and leaves one shocked and guessing. Anna is introduced to the Supernatural universe as a ‘fallen angel’ and a girlfriend ofDean’s, the Fallen Angel Anna has cut out her own grace in order to get off Heaven. Initially Milton’s storyline with Dean is left somewhat unexplained, there is an obvious connection between the two of them.
After that she was dragged back into the celestial politics, tortured by the angels, and made to betray the Winchester brothers. It was Castiel, who later became a fan favorite, who finally ended her life. It was a very brutal scene, but it showed the first crack in Castiel’s Heaven controlled resolve. Anna’s story proves that even the most loved characters can die in ‘Supernatural’, and her death had a huge impact on the rest of the cosmic story, despite her limited time on screen and in story.

I made a spreadsheet. It's quite tedious, with all the dialogue dates, newspaper cuttings and characters' ages. So here's the result: Season 1-5: 2005-2007 (Age 26-28). Season 6: 2008-2009 (29). Season 7: 2010 (30). Season 8: 2011 (31). Season 9: 2012 (32). Season 10: 2013 (33). Season 11: 2014 (34). Season 12: 2016-2017 (37-38). Season 13: 2018 (39). Season 14: 2019 (40). Season 15: 2020 (41). The age increases significantly after season 11.

This event is also a turning point for Damon. Although he has done some terrible things in the past, his guilt over Jenna’s death is clearly evident. He turned her to save her and her death had a profound effect on him. In trying to protect Elena and Jeremy from a similar fate, his failure with Jenna affects his decisions in subsequent episodes. It’s one of the few times his quick-fix solution has had disastrous and irreversible consequences for someone the audience cares about.
You get to see him struggle with this in subsequent episodes. But, he’s not made instantly a good guy. Instead you get to see more of the bad boy with a guilt complex persona. The first time Damon harms someone that the audience cares about in a very permanent way (as opposed to some random victim) is compelling and really adds to the complexity of his character as well as the complexity of his eventual redemption.

One of my favorite short stories of all time is ‘The Fall of the House of Usher’ by Edgar Allan Poe. There have been so many film adaptations of this short story over the years, including a great version by Roger Corman with Vincent Price in the 1960s, and more recently a Netflix series by Mike Flanagan. The short story is a masterpiece of gothic horror that creates a great atmosphere of madness and decay and of a house literally falling down. Most film adaptations fail to capture the density of Poe’s words and try to recreate the mood of the story, with the main objective of inducing dread, of portraying decay, and of announcing doom. The series by Flanagan is a very loose adaptation, using the title and the themes of the short story to create a modern horror series.

The official record of character deaths is Maya St. Germain, who died in the Ravenswood lodge fire and was discovered in Season 5, Episode 1. The fan reaction to this was to recognize it as another case of the ‘Bury Your Gays’ trope, where the lesbian character of Maya is killed off in order to further the plot of straight-presenting character Alison. The showrunner claimed that the scene was meant to raise the stakes for the characters, but it mostly left a bad taste in the mouths of fans.
It was also somewhat regressive. First there was the death of Emily’s first serious girlfriend, and then in her subsequent major relationship with Paige, things are far from idyllic. The pattern of EMITS showing queer people experiencing great turmoil or tragedy in their lives while same sex happiness is prevented was frustrating for many. Maya’s death in particular is how this story has generally been remembered by fans, making it a somewhat more complex and polarizing plot point than the death of just another character.

Rebekah is best in her journey to freedom. From her sassy and vengeful character with a secret desire to begin from her first appearance, to her growth in her last appearance, she fights for her autonomy. Whether she is to kill back Klaus or to choose mortality for her, she is not letting anyone tell her what to do. Her costumes are also worthy of an award. From her vintage dresses to her leather jacket, she looks amazing in everything she wears. Her costumes make her even more relatable and her fashion makes her even more unique. Her breakdown from Marcel’s rejection and her journey to start writing her own story is also very relatable. By the end of her journey, Rebekah has earned her humanity, literally and figuratively.

I’m a big supporter of author-run collectives or micro-presses. While ‘Heartspell Media’ (founded by authors for authors) and ‘Snowy Wings Publishing’ (a cooperative) are by no means perfect, they’re operating on a different ethos than the bigger conglomerates. For the most part, they’re much more collaborative, transparent, and responsive to feedback than their larger counterparts. As many are written by and for people within the genre of supernatural romance, they get the particular struggles of this genre too. They may not have the same marketing budget as the bigger companies, but they more than make up for it with their passion for the genre and their community-oriented spirit. Not only are the covers for books published by these presses frequently stunning because they hire from within the supernatural romance fan art community, but also the release dates for new books are generally coordinated so that authors are supporting each other. It feels much more like you’re buying from a family-run business than a large corporation. For those who want to be able to feel connected to the creative process of a particular author, these are the best place to go to find new voices. You’re not just buying a book; you’re supporting an entire ecosystem of artists and writers who are writing because they love the genre as much as you do. That emotional connection is powerful.

Also worth noting is the theme of revenge here. Komamura has been seeking vengeance against the Quincy for his master’s death. In Bambietta, he has found the perfect enemy to channel his anger and seek his revenge upon. Her defeat is a cathartic experience for the攝檢 major and serves to be a very satisfying story point for his character development. Her death is satisfying to readers as well as it serves to bring closure to Komamura’s story arc. We have seen Komamura struggle with his anger and his 能力 as a beast, but here he is able to utilize them both perfectly in a single counter-attack. Bambietta was the random, senseless enemy of the Quincy that invaded and took the one thing he loved. His cutting down of her is his declaration of war against the Quincy.

I want to challenge the assertion that Sanemi survived “happily” in this ending. He lost his brother. Many of his friends have died. He is permanently maimed. And he has lost the purpose of his existence: fighting demons. For someone as combative and willing to sacrifice himself as the Hashira Sanemi, peace could be terrible for him.
Sanemi has survived physically but it’s possible that he has died in some respect. The brutal Hashira, weapon to kill demons, Sanemi has died with Muzan’s defeat. What is left of him is a severely traumatized and hollow man. This is a bittersweet and ambiguous ending which is much more realistic than giving the protagonist a heroic death or a happy ending. We are left to our imagination on how the rest of his life will be like. Which is brilliant really.

The sudden death of Dally after the slow unfolding of tragedy with Johnny is a narrative shock. The long period of expectation before Johnny’s death is sharply contrasted with the rapid and violent shock of Dally’s death. The reason for this is twofold. First, the story is trying to drive home the point that in their world nothing can be expected and that loss can occur at any time. Secondly, the two deaths are of two different types. One was expected by the reader and was therefore agonizing. The other was sudden and traumatic and follows Ponyboy’s anticipation of loss with two huge blows in rapid succession. This is what makes so devastating the end of The Outsiders and the subsequent collapse of Ponyboy in the aftermath of the deaths of his two close friends.
