My reaction to the second half of S1 will go up whenever it's ready and cleared copyright wise, probably somewhere in the Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday range if I had to guess.
I’ve been so excited to see your reaction, also I agree with what you said at 19:19, it really is surreal seeing this a full show after all this time, but it’s surreal is a good way.
My bro , my man , mister Skark , you have no idea how long i was waiting for your reaction, GIGA chills , thank you so much homie (and the other half is even more insane somehow, HYPE!!!).

My thinking is that since holograms are light based and angels are beings of pure light, yeah, he could probably use his hologram form to interact with the other party at will.
Valentino's body language is so good. When he's talking to Charlie he consistently tries to remain roughly at eye level with her, where as with Angel there's rarely a shot where he isn't looking over him or putting himself in SOME position of power over him.
I think that actually goes two ways. I took it as him treating Charlie like a child and basically mocking "the little princess of hell ~ ". That however makes the scene where he licks her with his poisonous/addiction slime even more gross ._.
@@jos-josradvanji6203 I think Val is also trying to appease Charlie. He's not just mocking her. He knows who her dad is and he knows she likely powerful in her own right. When she almost snaps, that could have been bad news for Valentino. That would not really have worked, since Val could use the fact he owns Angel's soul to threaten her. Val could hurt Charlie emotionally, using that she's a bleeding heart against her. But physically? Angel sees Val as powerful and Charlie as weak, but that's his distorted vision.
@@Djorgal But Val doesn't know Charlie at all. There's no way he knows her personality so no way to threaten with intent,if anything he'd go on a hunch which would be quite the risk to take.
@@jos-josradvanji6203 Of course he knows Charlie ! She is the daughter of the two most powerful beings in Hell, any Overlord, and most people, know her for that. Also he likely saw her on the TV when she presented her hotel.
I think part of Angel dusts anger towards Sir.Pensius is that he was working for the V’s, which means that this hotel- his safe place- was being invaded by the very person he was trying to escape. Plus the whole role playing thing really must have felt like they were mocking and insulting him. He was the evil drug dealer, and the snake was the innocent child who got all the praise.

Something that I hadn't noticed until now. The meeting room that the overlords meet in, the weapons mounted on the walls are all angelic weapons. It further speaks to the confidence of Carmilla in that she can put angelic weapons on the walls of her meeting room while surronded by people with the desire to take her out and steal her terf.
@@soul6733 she is, but she's only mentioned once, and it's pretty unrelated to who we know lilith to be. I doubt older bibles had her in it at all. It's just another thing added to bible lore i guess
@@tjarkschweizer Problem is that she ISN'T in any of the Bible. The closest thing to Lilith in the Bible is a phrase talking about demons of the night, one of which MAYBE could have been associated to Lilith, but the idea of "Lilith was the first wife of Adam" came from some medieval text theorizing about it, but in the Bible? Nu-uh. And in fact, almost all branches of Christianity, Hebrew and Islam reject the notion of Lilith being the first wife of Adam.
@@soul6733 Medieval? Wasn't she from jewish mythology? I have to admit I do not have this stuff memorized. By the way, I was making an argument for *if* she was ever included. I didn't say she ever was.
One thing that may have made Angel feel worse in ep 2. Is the "no sexual intercourse before marriage." He's a sex worker. A gay one at that. Who may never get married. And he definitely didn't get to when he was alive and in the mafia. That line was basically a direct jab at everything Angel is
Ironically for most of his development he actually did have a daughter, who wasn't taken out until really late in the game. Angel died in '47 in his 30s, its not out of the question that he did end up having to marry for show. Your actually underselling what a bleak fucking time it was. The reason they rioted at Stonewall wasn't just cause they were going to jail, it was because the cops were going to give all their names to the papers to publish, they'd lose everything: friends, family, jobs, homes, professional licenses (doctor, lawyer, hair dresser, etc.) The Mafia ran those bars & would 110% kick gay members out (only stopping in 2019). The idea of Same Sex marriage was a dream not even seriously considered in '30s. And Charlie thinks Hell is a swell place to live & goes nuts at the prospect of animals that are fluffy; so I assume knows fucking none of that... really hope Husk pulls her aside at some point. He's bi, was born about 10 yrs before Angel (same as Alastor actually), but died an old man in the '70s. He has the context an empathy to convey it in a way she'll grok with.
@@caseyp5861 Since when do you not trap them in trade farms, inbreed them, murder any who cause problems, and kill them just to get cheaper trades through zombie curing?
For context, the reason Charlie had that lightbulb moment when she learned Adam's name was because of who her parents are. Her father is Lucifer, who she was subbing in for, but her mother is Adam's first wife Lilith. In short, Lucifer asked his daughter to meet with his wife's ex husband so he wouldn't have to. Which considering Lucifer ALSO claims to have had a relationship with Eve as well was probably a good idea.
Yeahhhhhh, they scrapped a ton of the actual Bible lore and went for a weird Al Yankovic remix of it. Like making Adam the villain but also making it so that it was never his fault that sin entered the world.
@@tjarkschweizer The christians clearly give a shit, for one. Then there's the whole weird plotholes that result from the scrapping and changing of the lore. If Adam never did anything wrong then making him the villain is just fanservice for a bunch of seething and coping agnostics.
You're great man, I've seen so many heartless and disassociated reaction videos from channels who treat Hazbin Hotel as simply another show, it's awesome to finally see a reaction from a true long-term fan who's interested in the show for what it's trying to accomplish and is uniquely.
Literally perfect timing, I just clicked on the upload history to see if he started reacting to it yet, didn't see anything, went back to the home page and it was the first on the recommended posted 1 second ago.
It's a pretty solid theory that Val's custom bot is actually the Vees' knockoff copy of the 'Fizzy' brand, but it could also be a heavily customized 'official Fizzie'
Literally my favorite reactor. The ways you catch things and have so much wisdom and understanding is exactly why i love seeing your opinions. Please keep up the great work!!! Much love!
Honestly what i love about you is that you make reaction videos basically uncut and still gives your opinion, not caring how long the video actually is
@@D1ne-O-SAur The reactor himself said that exact thing in the video dude =_= if you pay that little attention when u watch it might be good for ppl to break it down for u twice.

Vox is my favorite villian honestly. His design and the way he acts is perfect (also love the little heart the static makes when he lights Val's cigarette).
So the thing about Alastor and deer is that he was a cannibalistic serial killer in life and was accidentally killed by a deer hunter. So his demon form is a deer. And believe it or not in real life deer are not only opportunistic omnivores (they don't actively hunt but will eat any meat they can easily get) but *Red* Deer are also cannibalistic.
The VVVs draw their power from different sides of the internet. Vox is tv, Velvette is social media, and Valentino is porn. The same way Alastor is radio, in a way.
Can’t wait to see you react to ep 5 & 8. This show proves adult animation can work as a deep character driven story & new IPs should be given a chance without all the strings. I like to think this will encourage more original animation/stories & even revive others that got canned like infinity train.
I really appreciate how you showed the songs in all of thier glory. Several UA-camrs either mute or alter or skip the songs completely due to UA-cam being a "CU Next Tuesday". However, messing with the songs really takes away from the episode reactions in a big way, and saps so much of the enjoyment out of sharing the moments with the reactors. I'll be waiting to see your reaction to the rest of the season! I love the way you did these in giant mostly-uncut chunks.
So I noticed recently Vaggie has a minor slip of the tongue in episode 3 when they are on the roof. As she is talking to Charlie she refers to the people of hell as “your” people, not “our”. Almost like Vaggie doesn’t see herself as a sinner. If Charlie had paid better attention to things Vaggie said and how she acted, she might have realized the truth before Adam try’s to ruin their relationship. I mean is isn’t rocket science. Lol
She also says to Alastor in ep one that she isn't stupid enough to take a deal from a demon like Alastor... alaso as if she wasn't a demon herself ie a sinner.
1:25:57 it's theorized Alastor started off as a cannibal, as his sinner form is resemblant of a wendigo. When he exudes more power at his will, the more wendigo his features appear, such as putting Vox in his place when Vox tried to bully Alastor into submission. P.S. That ain't vennison, that is straight up an expired deer corpse. There's a stark difference between funky fresh, and literally falling apart rotting.
The episode with Angel is amazing. It shows how horrible the situation he's in. How he feels like its his own fault for the abuse he goes through. He hides his pain and torment behind a sexualized facade, pretending it doesn't bother him. A lot of ppl expect SA victims to avoid sex and physical contact, but that's not always the case. Some instead use a sexual persona to convince others and themselves that they are ok. So props to them showing a side of SA Abuse that often gets ignored or demonized. Also...that last line of the song Poison...the voice actor just NAILED that pain and misery in his voice at that moment.
I just wanna put this out there because I don’t see many other people talking about this. I think Vox might be jealous of Angel. At first, I assumed Vox didn’t really think about Angel at all except for when Val brings him up, but there are certain signs that point to him being jealous towards Angel. In episode 2, Vox is never shown to be interested in discussing Angel himself except for when he needed to reign Val in. Also, when he said “Oh Angel quit?” he was smiling and that was the only time he smiled during most of that conversation. In episode 4, during the Poison portion of the episode (specifically the last part where Angel looks down from a balcony and sees Val & Vox), Vox went from what appeared to be genuinely happy to a look that basically read as “What are you looking at?” Then immediately after his mood was soured, he teleported away. This could either be obvious and I’m wasting my time talking about this or just wild theorizing on my part. But I just wanted to discuss it since not many people are bringing up this theory/possibility.
Can't wait to see your reaction to the second part Shark. And your insights were spot on. Shame season one only got 8 episodes but they did pretty good with what they were given.
to be fair, the moment you start to include the Lilith stuff the biblical Adam starts to look rather sexist already. even without that he blames Eve for his own bad actions and from there blames God for making Eve taking no blame for himself. by modern standards even the biblical Adam is just... really not a good person at all, I don't think he's even supposed to be. all the series did was take the negative traits already present and turn it up to 11 making him come off as a self-obsessed mysoginist who genuinely doesn't believe that he's ever done anything wrong.
This show is SO good! And I can't wait for your reaction to the final episodes! P.s Episode is absolutely GOATED! And the songs for that episode are peak 👌😉
Loved your commentary and dissection of the little details of the show, I hope you enjoy yourself watching the show more, I'm on my 3rd watch already and there are soo many little details I've missed on the first and even 2nd watch! Got yourself a new subcriber with this one, will be interesting to dive into the rabbit hole that your channel is!
I mean In episode 6 Adam says that Charlie has been fucking vaggie. It’s entirely possible that she’s trying to set the example bc that’s what heaven wants. She’s not trying to get into heaven herself tho so it’s unlikely she’s following those herself. Plus it doesn’t work lol bc sir pentious tries to have sex with cherri in episode 6
Modern wedding vows often include “‘til death do we part,” at which point they are generally considered no longer married, and they are past mortal death, so… would it still work that way?
@@spectrademonicavods probably, people who abuse Jesus’s teachings for bigotry no doubt go to Hell, but for some reason, I personally feel that it’d be funny, and a bit cute, if Charlie was saving her first time of pleasure for the girl she loves whenever they finally marry.
It feels like forever ago I saw you react to the pilot lol. I liked this first season, but the biggest problem was definitely the pacing because it feels like they crammed 20 episodes worth of stuff into 8 because of constraints. Hopefully season 2 fixes this by having more time to pace out whatever story they want to tell but I am interested to see more.
Everyone hates Valentino but be honest. If you hate him, you hate him bc of his personality or bc he's not a good (well written) character. Because I think Val is a Horrible monster but as a character he's awesome. Good VA ✅️ Cool looks✅️ Sick powers✅️ (that smoke chain around Angel's neck looks cool) Interesting ties to a character so he can be a good villain✅️ He's a monster but come on, as an antagonist in an animated series, he's great (near perfect in my opinion)
@@sandywolfr26 which is exactly why so many people actively hate him so much. His kind of abuse hits home way too close for a lot of people which makes him a lot more real than someone like Alastor. He is a serial killer, a sadist and a cannibal, which objectively should make him just as bad as Val albeit in a different way, but the vast majority of us will luckily never meet one of those (or if we do we hopefully never get to know that we just met one of them), so it's easier to dismiss Alastor's brand of evil compared to Valentino's. There is also the fact that Val's abuse of Angel isn't played for laughs while for the most part Alastor's behavior IS portrayed as being funny. Although I have a feeling that might change in the upcoming seasons.
@@Airemelde Wow, I like your way of thinking about this. I've never had the courage to bring up the "Why hate Valentino and not Alastor, since both of them are monsters" argument, bc I know some fans would've slit my throat. I think it's also important, that Valentino hurt a character we love, so we hate him more. But Alastor although he's a sadistic serial killer, he helps the group we love. That's my idea. But I love your reasoning too.

I feel obligated to point out how horrified Charlie looked when Adam grabbed her arm because he was still just a hologram.
Yeah, that was a great touch. Hinting at just how strong he was since he could manifest a semi-physical hologram down in hell.
My thinking is that since holograms are light based and angels are beings of pure light, yeah, he could probably use his hologram form to interact with the other party at will.

It further speaks to the confidence of Carmilla in that she can put angelic weapons on the walls of her meeting room while surronded by people with the desire to take her out and steal her terf.
It also says "Hey, I am THIS LEVEL OF ARMED, attempt anything and you will suffer"

The pet is KeeKee. It's literally the key to the hotel. Tbh that's pretty much all I know cause the show only mentions keekee by name once
Not only the key, it's literally the personification of the hotel. Keekee IS the hotel.
keekee IS the hotel
Finally someone who knows that Lilith isn't just some random demon or OC that got made important for the show!
Well, Lilith is canonically an OC that got mixed in the story of the Bible despite her NOT being in the Bible ever.
@@soul6733 she is, but she's only mentioned once, and it's pretty unrelated to who we know lilith to be. I doubt older bibles had her in it at all. It's just another thing added to bible lore i guess
@@soul6733 If Lilith is at any point included in a bible then she canonically is in the bible.
Remember, there is no such thing as *"the* one Bible".
@@tjarkschweizer Problem is that she ISN'T in any of the Bible. The closest thing to Lilith in the Bible is a phrase talking about demons of the night, one of which MAYBE could have been associated to Lilith, but the idea of "Lilith was the first wife of Adam" came from some medieval text theorizing about it, but in the Bible? Nu-uh. And in fact, almost all branches of Christianity, Hebrew and Islam reject the notion of Lilith being the first wife of Adam.
@@soul6733 Medieval? Wasn't she from jewish mythology?
I have to admit I do not have this stuff memorized.
By the way, I was making an argument for *if* she was ever included. I didn't say she ever was.
It’s really refreshing finding a reaction by someone who actually knew what this was before it became popular.
One thing that may have made Angel feel worse in ep 2. Is the "no sexual intercourse before marriage." He's a sex worker. A gay one at that. Who may never get married. And he definitely didn't get to when he was alive and in the mafia. That line was basically a direct jab at everything Angel is
Not only that, he is also an addict and died of a drug overdose.
Like they really got everything.
Ironically for most of his development he actually did have a daughter, who wasn't taken out until really late in the game. Angel died in '47 in his 30s, its not out of the question that he did end up having to marry for show. Your actually underselling what a bleak fucking time it was. The reason they rioted at Stonewall wasn't just cause they were going to jail, it was because the cops were going to give all their names to the papers to publish, they'd lose everything: friends, family, jobs, homes, professional licenses (doctor, lawyer, hair dresser, etc.) The Mafia ran those bars & would 110% kick gay members out (only stopping in 2019). The idea of Same Sex marriage was a dream not even seriously considered in '30s.
And Charlie thinks Hell is a swell place to live & goes nuts at the prospect of animals that are fluffy; so I assume knows fucking none of that... really hope Husk pulls her aside at some point. He's bi, was born about 10 yrs before Angel (same as Alastor actually), but died an old man in the '70s. He has the context an empathy to convey it in a way she'll grok with.

Alastor's part in "Stayed Gone" gave me chills in the best way.
For context, the reason Charlie had that lightbulb moment when she learned Adam's name was because of who her parents are. Her father is Lucifer, who she was subbing in for, but her mother is Adam's first wife Lilith. In short, Lucifer asked his daughter to meet with his wife's ex husband so he wouldn't have to. Which considering Lucifer ALSO claims to have had a relationship with Eve as well was probably a good idea.
Yeah, pretty sure that "meating" would have ended in nothing but fight if lucifer would have gone instead of charlie
"i like how they are using the bible lore" LMAO
I moreso meant to the extent that they are, but yes, big memes.
More than he knows, knowing Lilith....
Yeahhhhhh, they scrapped a ton of the actual Bible lore and went for a weird Al Yankovic remix of it. Like making Adam the villain but also making it so that it was never his fault that sin entered the world.
@@GlorinMF Well, who gives a shit?
If the christians wanna cry about it, let them.
@@tjarkschweizer The christians clearly give a shit, for one. Then there's the whole weird plotholes that result from the scrapping and changing of the lore. If Adam never did anything wrong then making him the villain is just fanservice for a bunch of seething and coping agnostics.
The fact that Adam looked at the camera after saying “ugly people” is hilarious 😂
You're great man, I've seen so many heartless and disassociated reaction videos from channels who treat Hazbin Hotel as simply another show, it's awesome to finally see a reaction from a true long-term fan who's interested in the show for what it's trying to accomplish and is uniquely.
Literally perfect timing, I just clicked on the upload history to see if he started reacting to it yet, didn't see anything, went back to the home page and it was the first on the recommended posted 1 second ago.
Yep, Striker got his blessed weapons from Carmine
Also Val has his own customized Fizzie which is amazing
And Charlie rode a “Helluva” Post Truck.
Hazbin Shoutouts to Helluva!
@@Otisboy121 yeah, I think almost everyone saw that one lol
It's a pretty solid theory that Val's custom bot is actually the Vees' knockoff copy of the 'Fizzy' brand, but it could also be a heavily customized 'official Fizzie'
Literally my favorite reactor. The ways you catch things and have so much wisdom and understanding is exactly why i love seeing your opinions. Please keep up the great work!!! Much love!
Never thought id hear "to watch award winning demon bukkake shows" as lyrics

Holy sh*t you're playing with fire not only posting your full reaction to ONE episode of an Amazon series but four? and the one with Amazon owned(ish) music? But what'd I expect from Shark.

Vaggie is Voiced By Stephanie Beatriz, who voiced Mirabel In Encanto. Husk Is voiced by Keith David who voiced Dr. Facilie in Princess and the Frog. And King Andries in Amphibia. And Lucifer(Spoilers) is voiced by Jermey Jordan Who voiced Varian In the Tangled Series. 34:40 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 What, Where you other angles come from.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 2:03:09 Blake why are you so good at voice acting, especially with the voice cracks. 2:05:59 This episode shows the bad worker and Boss relationship. 2:06:32 THE VOICE CRACKS. BLAKE, WHY. 2:17:27 Angel. 2:18:01 Dr. Facilie is that you? 2:18:27 I haven’t heard Keith David sing since Princess and the frog. I just listened to half of “friends on the other side” from my Disney playlist. 2:20:33 Again Dr. Facilie.
Vox is my favorite villian honestly. His design and the way he acts is perfect (also love the little heart the static makes when he lights Val's cigarette).
So the thing about Alastor and deer is that he was a cannibalistic serial killer in life and was accidentally killed by a deer hunter. So his demon form is a deer. And believe it or not in real life deer are not only opportunistic omnivores (they don't actively hunt but will eat any meat they can easily get) but *Red* Deer are also cannibalistic.
The VVVs draw their power from different sides of the internet. Vox is tv, Velvette is social media, and Valentino is porn. The same way Alastor is radio, in a way.
Can’t wait to see you react to ep 5 & 8. This show proves adult animation can work as a deep character driven story & new IPs should be given a chance without all the strings. I like to think this will encourage more original animation/stories & even revive others that got canned like infinity train.
I freaking love Alastor! He is definitely the star of this show and made each episodes better than the last!!😍🤩
“Yea… u don’t belong here- Mommy…? What the hell” that’s shit got me laughing so hard lol

I really appreciate how you showed the songs in all of thier glory. Several UA-camrs either mute or alter or skip the songs completely due to UA-cam being a "CU Next Tuesday". However, messing with the songs really takes away from the episode reactions in a big way, and saps so much of the enjoyment out of sharing the moments with the reactors. I'll be waiting to see your reaction to the rest of the season! I love the way you did these in giant mostly-uncut chunks.
I’ve waited SINCE the pilot episode for you to react to the whole series, Shark! Well done!

So I noticed recently Vaggie has a minor slip of the tongue in episode 3 when they are on the roof. As she is talking to Charlie she refers to the people of hell as “your” people, not “our”. Almost like Vaggie doesn’t see herself as a sinner. If Charlie had paid better attention to things Vaggie said and how she acted, she might have realized the truth before Adam try’s to ruin their relationship. I mean is isn’t rocket science. Lol
She also says to Alastor in ep one that she isn't stupid enough to take a deal from a demon like Alastor... alaso as if she wasn't a demon herself ie a sinner.
Adam is one of my favorite hellaverse villains along side with vox, striker, crimson and mammon.
I've Been Waiting For This
A rather fitting quote considering what else just came out.
1:25:57 it's theorized Alastor started off as a cannibal, as his sinner form is resemblant of a wendigo. When he exudes more power at his will, the more wendigo his features appear, such as putting Vox in his place when Vox tried to bully Alastor into submission. P.S. That ain't vennison, that is straight up an expired deer corpse. There's a stark difference between funky fresh, and literally falling apart rotting.
The episode with Angel is amazing. It shows how horrible the situation he's in. How he feels like its his own fault for the abuse he goes through. He hides his pain and torment behind a sexualized facade, pretending it doesn't bother him. A lot of ppl expect SA victims to avoid sex and physical contact, but that's not always the case. Some instead use a sexual persona to convince others and themselves that they are ok. So props to them showing a side of SA Abuse that often gets ignored or demonized.
Also...that last line of the song Poison...the voice actor just NAILED that pain and misery in his voice at that moment.
I love how charlie says "I GO WHERE I PLEASE" with that evil queen accent
LET'S FCKNG GOOOOOO OMG YOURE THE FIRST PERSON I THINK OF WHEN THIS SHOW CAME OUT, CANT WAIT TO WATCH YOUR REACTIONS
53:46 Kitty is a Fizzarolli Bot from Helluva Boss
ep 4 is the best by far of all 8, but that may also be my angel dust bias speaking
Agree. It's literally the best written one. Even with its flaws.
I just wanna put this out there because I don’t see many other people talking about this. I think Vox might be jealous of Angel. At first, I assumed Vox didn’t really think about Angel at all except for when Val brings him up, but there are certain signs that point to him being jealous towards Angel.
In episode 2, Vox is never shown to be interested in discussing Angel himself except for when he needed to reign Val in. Also, when he said “Oh Angel quit?” he was smiling and that was the only time he smiled during most of that conversation.
In episode 4, during the Poison portion of the episode (specifically the last part where Angel looks down from a balcony and sees Val & Vox), Vox went from what appeared to be genuinely happy to a look that basically read as “What are you looking at?” Then immediately after his mood was soured, he teleported away.
This could either be obvious and I’m wasting my time talking about this or just wild theorizing on my part. But I just wanted to discuss it since not many people are bringing up this theory/possibility.
I've been waiting for your reaction! I was low-key craving it! 😍🤩🤩🤩

SHARK=GOAT
For real, Shark is one of top favorite Reactors
Yep
Can't wait to see your reaction to the second part Shark. And your insights were spot on. Shame season one only got 8 episodes but they did pretty good with what they were given.
Fun fact: Did you know that in the second part of Poison Angel dust doesn't sing it, Anthony does
Aww ye, another fiona and cake experience where I can enjoy the show via your reaction for a little longer lol
hey, nice pfp
This is so crazy because I literally remember watching your videos back in like 2016 and I find you again! Love your reactions!
The hell is forever song goes HARD
I love the reference of Adam's favourite food being ribs as Eve was made from Adam's rib and Adam in Hazbin isn't exactly a feminist icon
to be fair, the moment you start to include the Lilith stuff the biblical Adam starts to look rather sexist already.
even without that he blames Eve for his own bad actions and from there blames God for making Eve taking no blame for himself.
by modern standards even the biblical Adam is just... really not a good person at all, I don't think he's even supposed to be.
all the series did was take the negative traits already present and turn it up to 11 making him come off as a self-obsessed mysoginist who genuinely doesn't believe that he's ever done anything wrong.
@@Eclipsed_Embers Lilith isn't in the Bible. She's basically fanfiction from the Jewish side of the equation.
Hell yeah! I'm excited to see your reaction to the season proper because personally it was really good to amazing at some points
1:59:02 “I’m…coming!” “NOT OFF CAMERA YOUR NOT 😡😡😡”
It's funny to think that's technically the only joke Valentino ever says, and in-context he technically didn't say it as a joke either.

Loved your commentary and dissection of the little details of the show, I hope you enjoy yourself watching the show more, I'm on my 3rd watch already and there are soo many little details I've missed on the first and even 2nd watch! Got yourself a new subcriber with this one, will be interesting to dive into the rabbit hole that your channel is!
THE ONE PIECE IS REEEEEAAAL!!!
Holy shit I'm so fucking excited right now LET'S GOOOO!
Finally! Someone who doesn't pause every 5 minutes during their reaction!🎉🎉
At 1:05:40, Does Charlie putting this line in the script imply that she and Vaggie have never had sex and doesn’t plan to until they get married?
I mean In episode 6 Adam says that Charlie has been fucking vaggie. It’s entirely possible that she’s trying to set the example bc that’s what heaven wants. She’s not trying to get into heaven herself tho so it’s unlikely she’s following those herself. Plus it doesn’t work lol bc sir pentious tries to have sex with cherri in episode 6
I doubt it, I assume she was just using the knowledge she got from religious zealots about what they think gets them into heaven.
That, or she's abiding by what she thinks get's people sent to heaven.
Modern wedding vows often include “‘til death do we part,” at which point they are generally considered no longer married, and they are past mortal death, so… would it still work that way?
@@spectrademonicavods probably, people who abuse Jesus’s teachings for bigotry no doubt go to Hell, but for some reason, I personally feel that it’d be funny, and a bit cute, if Charlie was saving her first time of pleasure for the girl she loves whenever they finally marry.
I enjoyed this, dude. Can't wait for the next four episodes! 👍
Oh you just knowww we've been waiting for this! XD
Your reactions are awesome Shark, thank you for this 💙
The fact that Adam breaks the 4th wall when he says "ugly people" and looks into the camera 👁️👄👁️
It feels like forever ago I saw you react to the pilot lol. I liked this first season, but the biggest problem was definitely the pacing because it feels like they crammed 20 episodes worth of stuff into 8 because of constraints. Hopefully season 2 fixes this by having more time to pace out whatever story they want to tell but I am interested to see more.
Yeah i was lowkey hoping more bonding stuff in eps.. kinda like fosters home cartoon vibes if that makes sense
1:57:08 pay attention to when Husk purrs and how his eyes change when he looks at Angel later in the show. And Husk caught Angel in the trust fall? Aw

You are not ready for our short King ❤🎉🎉🎉
Everyone hates Valentino but be honest. If you hate him, you hate him bc of his personality or bc he's not a good (well written) character.
Because I think Val is a Horrible monster but as a character he's awesome.
Good VA ✅️
Cool looks✅️
Sick powers✅️ (that smoke chain around Angel's neck looks cool)
Interesting ties to a character so he can be a good villain✅️
He's a monster but come on, as an antagonist in an animated series, he's great (near perfect in my opinion)
also he is a very real portrayal of abusers. I seen people like him so he is very realistic
@@sandywolfr26 which is exactly why so many people actively hate him so much. His kind of abuse hits home way too close for a lot of people which makes him a lot more real than someone like Alastor. He is a serial killer, a sadist and a cannibal, which objectively should make him just as bad as Val albeit in a different way, but the vast majority of us will luckily never meet one of those (or if we do we hopefully never get to know that we just met one of them), so it's easier to dismiss Alastor's brand of evil compared to Valentino's.
There is also the fact that Val's abuse of Angel isn't played for laughs while for the most part Alastor's behavior IS portrayed as being funny. Although I have a feeling that might change in the upcoming seasons.
@@Airemelde Wow, I like your way of thinking about this. I've never had the courage to bring up the "Why hate Valentino and not Alastor, since both of them are monsters" argument, bc I know some fans would've slit my throat. I think it's also important, that Valentino hurt a character we love, so we hate him more. But Alastor although he's a sadistic serial killer, he helps the group we love. That's my idea. But I love your reasoning too.
The angel dust song on episode 4 its just wow
