There was never solid follow through on the leviathan arc at any point during the season. It really never seemed to get off the ground as the central season arc, I didn't expect any more than what we got, and I was happy with it. They wrapped-up Bobby's story the way it needed to be done, Crowley got to be Crowley and stab everybody in the back, and Sam and Dean got split up again, like they do basically every finale.
Essentially they wiped season 7 and set up for season 8. Which makes since, because Sara Gamble stepped-down as show runner and Jeremy Carver is taking over. I think Carver's done a good job running the American version of Being Human with his wife so I feel pretty good about that. It's just a guess at this point, but I would expect season 8 to be more like it was under Kripke (he left after season 5).
And the awesome part I was referring to was only the bit about Dean being in Purgatory and then Cas just abandoning him as the monsters close in.
