Are you going to continue your primordial entities series? The Empty is my favorite concept in the show but has only been mentioned in your theories.

Hearing the location where I live out of nowhere randomly at the end of the video gave me a jump so hard I needed half the things on this list to keep my heart in my chest.

Is also the fact we know a reaper can get possessed by a demon, at the very least one on the level of a Prince of hell. We've seen prince's and angels squaring power wise but don't think we've ever seen a demon get possessed by an angelic vessel apart from crowley to an alive Sam possessed by a weakened angel

I don't think reapers are angels.

I always thought they retconned this during some of the sloppier episodes of the show (tho I actually really liked 9.22 now that I think about it)... then un-retconned it lol like I think the Tessa thing is just a mistake by the writers tbh. it happens!

Reapers when stabbed with an angel blade explode with white lights like angels and not when used on other creatures... Enough for me. All evidence proves yeppers.

Have you done a video on the Muscas or the SPN anime?

I always thought of reapers are like an extension of death himself and that’s why they can take deaths place I defo don’t think there angles more like mini deaths

I think a video discussing the various retcons in supernatural would be interesting

Could be possible that when Angels die Death can choose to make them reapers instead of letting them go to the Empty at least for a while

I would also have to say that it doesn’t really make sense for them to be the same species because like they were needed specifically and not angels for specific rituals so Deamons could break schedules in the series so I don’t see how reapers can be angels

I think the show when down hill after season 5.

If I remember my biblical lore, not 100% sure. Death is an angle, just like the four horsemen were. All angles have different forms but were never human or given free will like humans have as angels were to be different but to process looking at an angel they have to speak or be a burning light/bush. If I'm also remembering it right the reason demons are humanoid are because they are twisted souls by true devils which were fallen angels which are not humanoid

Wasnt there a shortage of angels and heaven was gonna fall? If reapers were angels, there would barely be any reapers left so not enough to carry all the dead ppl to heaven/hell

Where do deities go when they die?

I thought they were a subspecies of angels made from the unified power between god and death

Reapers are technically angels of death. But reapers are not the same type of angel as to say angelic angels.

I have a question. In one of the episodes there was a man who used a ritual to obtain the attributes of animals by consuming them. I believe he was a shaman. If you were able to find an animal that was as close to immortality would you be able to extend your life? Imagine consuming a turtle and gaining their longevity. Or an animal that is able to readily repair itself like a starfish? Dog Dean Afternoon was the episode title, where antagonist of the episode was consuming animals parts as a means to combat cancer.

Death was locked up for a while (Lucifer had to do a whole ritual to bring him out). Maybe Chuck imprisoned Death at one point, seeing Death as just another destroyer, and he had to create reapers to keep the cosmic scale balanced.

6:00 i like to think that this whole "plot hole" is very easily explained away as: this takes place AFTER "the fall of the angels". and in that whole ordeal, most if not all of the angels found a host one way or another. if YOU were an angel; that is: loyal to your duty to a fault; would you not keep a hold of this meatsuit, even while in heaven? as to make your job in the future easier would you be required to head down to earth for some reason. it saves on the future potential hassle of getting a new (willing!!) meatsuit. at no cost. i'd also like to bring up the unrelated FUN fact that any meatsuit that passes through "the gates" loses it's soul. so any human that said yes to that angel, automatically entered their heaven once that angel passed the gates. (as per season 12 when Castiel is taking Kelly to the gates for her unaliving)

The fact that Tess didn't react to being called an Angel at all is weird. Like, if someone called me an Aardvark, I'd raise an eyebrow.

"in his true form he has six wings and four faces, one of which is a lion" Zack dropping some Angel True Form lore.

I have no idea why but I had always assumed reapers were angels, not sure where I got it from, maybe the same place Dean did?

Well, reapers are literally known as "angels of death" so. Take that as you will.

Maybe Dean didn't mean it literally? She fits the idiom of 'angel of death' more than just figuratively, but perhaps not _technically._

I always thought Reapers were Deaths “angels”. Death said himself he is as old as God, so maybe after god made angels death got the idea to make reapers.

In supernatrual there are camps so angles are on god camp, demons are on hell camp, monsters are on Eve's camp and reapers are on death camp.

Your videos are some of my favorite on KZbin I look for them all the time

For what it's worth, I think Chuck made the angels based off of how he saw Death make the reapers. Or maybe vice versa, because it doesn't make sense that there would be reapers before anything in creation, but at the same time copy pasting totally seems like something Chuck would do. : /

Love the vids

"Unearthly grip" dean would chuckle

My theory is that each Primordial being creates their own subjects. God crated Angels (and man?), Death created Reapers. Amara didn't really create, but her agent (Lucifer with the mark) did create(or mutate) demons. Was Eve a Primordial? She was able to create Monsters. Also possibly each realm has a Primordial host. God=heaven. Death=the Empty, Amara=Hell, Eve=Purgatory.

I just thought of it, but does supernatural have other fallen angels aside from lucifer??

I like this kind of video

I do really love the timeline and theory. But, my personal take has always been that Chuck is just kinda an asshole and wanted everything that happened to happen. He planned big events and let the rest play out. It was always supposed to end with Sam and Dean. And when It didn't, He loved it and kept the show going, until something he didn't predict, Jack, ended his story.

Everything after season 5 is fanfic

They are a different type of Angle "Angles of Death" likely created by him but with a few designs points from Chuck on the basics which Grim Reaper choose to keep and change was his decision........at best cousins

Could be sub-species

Jesse is who i want more of

Nay

My head canon about jesse is that the english men of letter got to him and ganked him with out him being aware because he would of been so useful when jack came around since physically they would be about the same age with a similar skill set

I think in biblical lore reapers would be a power or principality, not specifically a normal angel. They are angel that control the fictions of how the world works. They are the gears that make the world turn to use a metaphor. The unseen movers. I think that describe reapers fairly well. (I’m an atheist but I love fictional lore)

It's not possession it's a dead corpse resurrected for their current use Angel in the Bible is an office They are officers of the law The same word in ancient Hebrew for Angel and prophet when talking about a mortal. Also that same word is the name Aaron. Angel/prophet/Aaron Not so much a species but a job position or a celestial office.

Like most have said im fairly certain that reapers are angels for death. Basically death saw angel and was like i can also make this.

I like your theory of reapers being able to become death because they're made of his essence, but God doesn't have any power over death "in the end I'll reap him too", so I see it more as death splitting off more and more pieces of himself to make reapers who would be able to help keep the balance as there were more and more souls to reap inhabiting earth, we already have evidence of eve creating sentient life without being god so why couldn't death?

In Christianity they are

Nay

There's different varieties of angels, there's seraphim like cas and Zacharia, there's "experts" mentioned by cas about that megalomaniac in the samhain episode, there's cherubs, depending on your view on them in the grand scheme, that imaginary friend species may be some kind of super low tier angel, where angels might not even remember their Angels, there's the watchers and there's the arch angels. I don't if I've missed any but I probably have, there's so many different kinds and the fact that god in supernatural created everything, those imaginary friend things seem like a social order thing he would impose to make sure people grow up well rounded.

I like your videos and always looking forward to the next one BUT the relationship you've established between god and death should not even be a thing. I mean god/Chuck has never even acknowledged death, mentioned death, or even seem to have noticed him roaming around.... Just like god/Chuck seems to have not been aware of the empty. I mean if he knew, he'd either seen them as competition to his might and immortality and try to control or bind them like he did his sister (the darkness). The reapers seemed to have been extension of death itself similar to a parasite "tentacles", whatever. I don't have an opinion as to why Dean called a reaper an angel other than the fact that early Dean was an idiot or may have had a crush on the physical appearance of that reaper.

The entire season after angels lost their wings, don't reapers team up with angels and fight eith and for them? I feel like I also recall Cas calling reapers angels.
