I definitely don't hate season 6. It's not my favorite, and I think it could have been addressed better in parts (purgatory being the resting place of monsters kind of ticks me off, but I can live with it mostly), but I agree with you about it being like season 6 of Buffy, though my reasons might be different ((coincidentally, season 5 of both are my favorites for the same reasons - over all story arc, character interaction, brilliant death scenes of a favorite character...)).
Season 6 of SPN and Buffy both have brilliant individual episodes, villains of my favorite characters that I didn't expect but can understand and empathize with their reasoning for most of them (I don't get Crowley's motivation, I wish they'd explained his better), and I thought they had a lot of potential in the over all story. However, for both season 6s, I thought that the over all story was lacking until the last few episodes, and I felt unsatisfied in a lot of parts.
SPN/FF8 would be awesome~ I had a... Sort of similar idea for a SPN/Persona 4 Fic; Dean, Sam, and Jimmy are persona users with Castiel being Jimmy's persona.
