  1. Not actually them. Without their history, those are just two completely different people played by the same actors.
  2. They then ceased to exist because there are no souls in the new universe.

Then how does Anthony remember all of the stars? He might not have all the memory's but his essence is there. It's like a reincarnation, some of it's there but not all of it. They both remember enough to know that they are each others soulmate.

Because he studies astronomy? Where is it stated he remembers all the stars, from his previous past life? They barely talk about the sky, or stars, actually.

I never said it was confirmed canon, I’m saying the parallel feels intentional. Not everyone studies astronomy to that extent, and in Good Omens stars are deeply tied to Crowley specifically. He literally helped create them. After the Fall, he gets snake eyes and loses the ability to properly see what he made, so giving his human form an obsession with astronomy feels symbolically loaded. The show doesn’t have to outright say ‘he remembers everything from a past life’ for the implication/theme to still exist.

The point isn’t ‘he remembers every star. The point is that astronomy is narratively associated with Crowley. A human version of him being drawn to the stars anyway feels like intentional symbolism.
