@@VENUS_FROM_EARTH I'm still trying to wrap my head around youtube's stupidity on copyright on a youtube webseries that's most likely not copyrighted,viv monetizes helluva boss and people always say oh don't worry about copyright cause it's already on youtube,you can watch the whole fucking thing even though the rules on youtube are utter shit
The whole joke of ep 2 was that Stolas doesn't *really* need bodyguards, he's just horny about watching Blitz work. When he started to focus on Octavia he took the would-be attackers out like it was nothing.
Can we take a moment to discuss how terrifying Stolas' entrance is? He possesses Number Two, raises the dead agents, and has them draw his summoning circle around her in their own blood, all WITHOUT the Grimoire. And he's so powerful that afterwards, he opens the portal home without it and with zero effort.
It's also a little about status I assume, but mostly to be near Blitzo. ^^ Even in the Lululand episode we saw him turn a would-be assassin to stone with a single look.
Okay but funny enough, during Blitzo’s hallucination scene, I never realized it was HIM voicing everyone but Moxie and I genuinely wondered why Millie’s sister was doing the voice for Verosika in that scene (meaning they CAN sound pretty similar).
1. "Morgana Ingus" is 100% a stage name, right? 2. Whoever she is, she definitely sounds like Brandon Rogers, which, to be frank, is a little weird. EDIT: I just realized she's probably trans so I guess that makes me the a-hole, lol.

@@icemagiciangh Yeah, Adam, Fizz, and Sir Pentious are the main ones he voices, but I added the Voxtech commercial because I think that's part of the reason that Danny thought Vox was also Alex, and Robo Fizz and Fizz are essentially the same person, but they do have different songs, so idk

The reason Moxxie was so against Striker being able to kill Stolas. Is because when hellborn demons die they get erased, but I.M.P inly kills humans and they get sent to the afterlife. It isn’t a permanent death.
And because to him, humans aren’t his kind. Stolas is his kind just royal. And someone being able to so easily permanently kill someone so powerful (that is the reason he has a job btw) is scary. And it’s probably illegal.

@@whitenobeard In 2x01 Blitz says "Oh, no, I kill people now!" when asked how his career at the circus is going. That was before they were able to do jobs on earth, so the only people they could be taking hits on would be demons in Hell. In 2x03 Blitz repeatedly tells Crim they don't take contracts in Hell "anymore", indicating they that used to be their business. There might have been other references to it I'm forgetting, but those one's are the most explicit that I recall. And on the topic of Moxxie killing other demons, he almost certainly did kill non-imps in his past line of work before he met Blitz, now that I think about it, so the idea of him not having a moral issue with kill because of some belief in reincarnation would have to extend to other non-immortal demons and specifically not extend to demon royals for it to make sense as to why he'd be fine killing them and not royals, without it being an issue of sentiment or just classism.
Millie’s sister’s voice actor isn’t Brandon Rogers (Blitzø’s VA), i sadly don’t know their name, but i’m pretty sure it’s a transgender VA, in fact, Millie’s sister is transgender!
17:50 i think the artstyle change is a reference to 70s Disney animation when they switched from having the ink and paint department completely redraw every frame to using a xerox machine to put the animators' drawings directly onto the cels, which resulted in a sketchier style where the guidelines on the face and body are occasionally visible for a split second.
The way you described the comedy in this show made me realize why I enjoy it so much. IT'S MEL BROOKS STYLE HUMOR. joke, after joke after joke, so that even if one doesn't land you're going to see another within the next 30 seconds that will.
Well, stolas doesn't *need* bodyguards - it's been shown that he can literally petrify any imp who tries anything in loo loo land. He just seems to have some sort of "getting rescued" kink.
I'm pretty sure Sollas has body guards not because he needs them but simply because its a hassle to defend himself and he's rich enough to hire people to save him the effort, that and its an excuse to interact with Blitz
I wouldn't say it's a hassle for him. He turned an imp to stone easily just with a glance when it came to Via. He doesn't seem to have bodyguards other than Blitzo (I'm not counting the party staff because they seemed to moreso fit the bill of bouncers, not necessarily protecting Stolas, but the estate).
1. Stolas is OP as f*... He just love Blitzø and want too spend more time with him. 2. Imps and hellhounds are hellborns. They're not sinners (who died on earth and were judged to be send to hell) they might be objectively good because of that 3. Killing Stolas is very big NoNo, he's the keeper of time. Moxxie freak out when he understood the weight of this situation. Blitzø does not even believe it's possible to hurt Stolas. I'm glad to see your next reactions to this series. Can't wait for more
Stolas isn't the keeper of time. His job is just to study the stars in order to find prophesies or something. He can also manipulate stuff involving space/celestial bodies, I guess, since we saw him do so at the harvest festival thing.
22:58 Hello yes I'm the comment guy. the answer is you're right, he doesn't need bodyguards. The only reason he invited blitz to looloo land was because he wanted to be with him, the bodyguard thing was just an excuse. You can tell he's not in any real danger because of how relaxed he is when he's actively being kidnapped/assassinated, and how at the end of the episode he straight up turns a guy to stone when he's over everyone's shit
@@CryptidCritter I'd actually put it as Stolas showing how good he is now at shutting out the yelling, which is probably part of his daily schedule now
it IS actually explained that stolas didnt need bodyguards in episode 2 since we see him literally turning an imp trying to attack him to stone in the end, he just rly wanted to see blitzø being hot😭 honest to GOD I cant wait for you to see episode 7, its my absolute favorite, s1 and s2 combined
@@SarahVanhove-j3u It *so* does. Especially now we know Oz and Fizz are actually really sweet. I’ve gone from begrudgingly admitting it’s great to just holy shit it’s so good
@@PoppyGilbert-kt7xp Norman couldn't return as Striker due to scheduling conflicts, so Edward Bosco(also Alastor's voice in the Hazbin pilot) voices him in season 2.
i feel like striker being voiced by norman reedus was the only reason people liked him. whenever people spoke about striker they’d bring up how he’s cool “because he’s voiced by norman reedus”. striker is arguably one of the most interesting characters and people complain that they “ruined him” (they didn’t), but if norman was able to reprise the role i bet people wouldn’t have been complaining as much
19:36 I LOVE that nobody is mentioning how he accidentally edited himself and his video into the spot the show usually displays. I love little blips like that that just prove he's human
The reason Stolas asked for a bodyguard wasn't because he needed protection, he just wanted an excuse to be around Blitz. By all means he's nearly invulnerable and practically a god. This gets shown off in a few areas, especially in his music video which you should totally check out.
Stolas turned a guy to stone at one point in an earlier episode. I think he has bodyguards, not to protect himself, but to trick others into thinking he’s not invincible so civilians feel safe around him
I mean any angelic guns can kill him at any range so he isn't as Invincible as you might think I can understand wanting or needing guards when even with all that power you are in hell,a place with no rules and full of ALL the murderers I can understand definitely needing guards
Unless angelic weapons are involved, Stolas doesn't need a body guard he early just wanted an excuse to hang out and flirt with Blitzo. Millie's sister Sallie May is actually voiced by actress Morgana Ignis. Fun video Danny your struggles with Barbara were a fun touch.
The comment you made about ads having a storyline, this is why those goldfish commercials will never be beaten because at one point they did have a story introduced new characters/new flavors and I was invested in their story. And it is not exactly hard to create a story connected to a product when there is already mascots or characters attached. Like cereal and other kids products it can be so easy to make a fun commercial but also add story elements to keep them invested and watching the ads.
I love Millies sister response to why Millie is disqualified from The Pain Games and her killing everyone "it only counts if they find the bodies" 🤣 also, fun fact, Striker is Daryl Dixon from Walking Dead and during the absolutely EPIC battle scene, the music changes and matches whoever the camera is focused on i.e. country style for Millie, more primal for Luna, etc. God, i frickin love this show
Stolas doesn't need bodyguards most of the time, lol. He just wanted an excuse to have Blitz around. I remember the wait for this episode. It was taking longer than usual for this ep to come out; not that we ever get an actual release date for an episode, but at that time there was usually about two or three months between episodes. Then we saw the episode, saw Moxxie's hallucination scene and then especially that KICKASS fight scene and were like, "Oh. That's why."
I honestly never realised Moxxie said Carmine, that's so cool there hasn't really been much explicit connections in the shows but on that note, I like how MatPat put it: the show's are juxtaposing each other, fighting each other's premises by simply existing Charlie is trying to lessen the amount of souls in hell, while Blitzo is actively trying to kill as many people, adding to the population. fun little thought about the connections that Vivzie has made with the two shows
17:08 I think most people are of the belief that Blitzø is just jealous of the relationship that M&M have because he's a lonely guy who pushes away everyone who shows him love and has shit self-esteem.
Fun fact: you were talking about how great commercials would be if they were a continuous series to keep track of. I highly recommend you reacting to the Japanese “ long long man” commercials then. There’s a complete list of them on UA-cam. Not only is the complete story great, it also has a mega twist at the end.
10:30-10:45 “It would make sense for him to hiss if he was a rattlesnake demon, but he’s not… He’s a long rat.” Me: *wheezes at Striker being bullied for several moments* Actually, Striker is canonically half-rattlesnake demon. It’s why his tail rattles.
one of my favourite things about episode 6 is during the fight sequence, each character has their own music, and when you get 2 of them in the shot it layers the themes
The reason why Stolas has blitzo as bodyguard is because from what I remember it was because he just liked it? I mean stolas doesn't really care abt the assassination attempts since he's powerful 😅
Stolas when he’s literally being tied up and about to get stabbed: Oh Blitzy~ I need my body guard please! 😇 Stolas when Blitz is protecting him: You know it’s quite thrilling to see you on the job like this. *Touches his horns in a sexual way* Stolas when Blitz is killing for him: My, what good aim you have Blitzy. Stolas when Blitz isn’t the one who saves him: Where’s Blitzy? He’s my knight in shiny armour. Not you, littler ones. Stolas when Blitz does the “Let’s go save our daughters” line and acts like his knight in shiny armour: 😳 Stolas when Blitz is in danger: So you have chosen, death.
Stolas doesn't defend himself because he wants to feel loved and protected by others. And also he was raised up protected by bodyguards so to him it's normal behaviour.
HOW DOES NO ONE NOTICE THAT IN THE BACKGROUND OF 24:59 , YOU CAN HEAR MUSIC FROM “look my way” I NOTICED THAT SO LONG AGO BUT NO ONE MENTIONS IT?? IF U LISTEN CLOSELY YOU CAN HEAR LIKE THE MUSICAL NUMBER AND ITS SO COOL, IT SHOWS HOW VIV LITERALLY ACKNOWLEDGES IT AND ADDS IT TO AN EPISODE, AND LATER SHE LITERALLY MAKES THE SONG CANON, LIKE CMON??
Yeah! that's Stolas's motif. You can often hear it playing when he's on-screen. This is a pretty common sound design tool used to make the entire scene focus on a particular character.
I love how Danny thinks that was a Brightman imitation. Cannot wait until the two Brightman episodes at the end of season two. Looking forward to a FULL reaction to all of Fizzy's songs.
Blitzo is in a way jealous of Millie, but also of Moxie, because they have such a nice and stable relationship, which Blitzo also craves. And it is kinda clear that he would like to third wheel in their relationship. Just look at the time he plays with two figurines of Millie and Moxie before Stolas invites him to Loo Loo land.
The reason stolas “needed” body guards is just that he wanted to spend time with blizo he never actually needed them it is established in the show that the only thing that can harm Him is angelic weapons also the reason he never really defends himself is bc he never takes what ever “danger” that is happening seriously bc he know that he is very strong and only angel wepons can hurt him
Moxy, Millie, Stolas, Blitz, Luna and most of the main characters in this show are not sinners but hellborn. There are 7 rings of hell, they go to the wrath ring for the festival and sinners can ONLY be in the first, the pride Ring. Hellborn are also not affected by the extermination.
Stiles can do cool stuff in hell… he just doesn’t do it frequently. He likes Blitz as a bodyguard, and Striker’s attempt probably would’ve worked because he didn’t expect it. One of the things he does in his introduction is open a portal to the moon to show his daughter
to be fair, the episode that had Stolas want Blitz to be his bodyguard also showed Sotlas perfectly capable of defending himself in the end (turning the imps trying to kill him into stone), implying that he basically just wanted Blitz there for the sake of it (it's like being rescued by him is his kink or something)
I feel like the reason that HB is so good with its comedic moments is because of Brandon Rodgers (Blitzø's VA). He is hilarious and it reflects in this show
About Stolas needing a Bodyguard. On Episode 2 at the end he just petrified a dude by looking at him, strongly implying that he never needed a bodyguard and just wanted Blitzø to save him
Millie's mom was born in Hell, but I"ll grant that "her thighs probably caused the Rapture" is a good line. 😂 The "Long Long Man" series of linked commercials from Japanese TV is the saga you've been looking for. Perfect blind reaction material for your style. Barb from Turbotax is seething with jealousy. "I just wasn't expecting a cool fight scene to show up in Helluva Boss, you know?" - Cue twenty thousand viewers making the same noise.
Just a quick mention, every character in Hellavu Boss, save for I.M.P.'s clients, aren't Sinners like the characters from Hazbin Hotel (except for Charlie, Vaggie, and Lucifer). All the characters here are Hellborn, i.e. born and raised in Hell, not humans who died and got sent to Hell. Meaning that Blitzø, his crew, Stolas, and the rest are straight up demons. While both shows do take place in the same universe, this is often a misconception do to neither show ever addressing this particular distinction between the species of Hell 😅. Apologies if that was never made clear to you in your watchthrough so far 😆.
I feel like we should inform Danny that there’s a song during the credits of episode 8 he should listen to. Missing out on Monster’s Ball would be a shame
I love the fight scene with Striker, it’s so visceral. Ep. 6 is very good, but Ep. 5 will always have a special place in my heart just because of how cool Striker is in that one.
23:50 my personal theory is that nothing says an angel doesn't have the strength to harm other angels. Or maybe angels in themselves count as an angelic weapon.
6:51 As soon as you said "I don't have any words of encouragement-" I got an ad for grammarly that started by asking "lost for words?" Idk. I just thought it was ironic
The part where the golden feathers from Stolas burn Blitzø and he screams in his bad trip is stuck in my brain in the best way, that's when the show owned me and I became addicted

And on the topic of Moxxie killing other demons, he almost certainly did kill non-imps in his past line of work before he met Blitz, now that I think about it, so the idea of him not having a moral issue with kill because of some belief in reincarnation would have to extend to other non-immortal demons and specifically not extend to demon royals for it to make sense as to why he'd be fine killing them and not royals, without it being an issue of sentiment or just classism.
Millie’s sister’s voice actor isn’t Brandon Rogers (Blitzø’s VA), i sadly don’t know their name, but i’m pretty sure it’s a transgender VA, in fact, Millie’s sister is transgender!
Her names Morgana Ignis :)
yea she is, she have a horns like a male imp
@@emmievcs3521 right, thank you !!
morgana does work with Brandon rogers on some videos
@@avintageviewand her hair roots are white
17:50 i think the artstyle change is a reference to 70s Disney animation when they switched from having the ink and paint department completely redraw every frame to using a xerox machine to put the animators' drawings directly onto the cels, which resulted in a sketchier style where the guidelines on the face and body are occasionally visible for a split second.
Stolas didnt need bodyguards in episode 2, he just wanted to get time with Blitzø.
That’s so true
So true Roxas 🙏

11:23 “right in front of stolas” AND THEIR FUCKING DAUGHTER 😭
The way you described the comedy in this show made me realize why I enjoy it so much. IT'S MEL BROOKS STYLE HUMOR. joke, after joke after joke, so that even if one doesn't land you're going to see another within the next 30 seconds that will.
Huh... I grew up watching Brooks movies, makes sense why I like this so much
Well, stolas doesn't *need* bodyguards - it's been shown that he can literally petrify any imp who tries anything in loo loo land. He just seems to have some sort of "getting rescued" kink.
I'm pretty sure Sollas has body guards not because he needs them but simply because its a hassle to defend himself and he's rich enough to hire people to save him the effort, that and its an excuse to interact with Blitz
Pretty sure it's mostly just him wanting to have Blitzø around
@@p3chv0gel22 probably
I wouldn't say it's a hassle for him. He turned an imp to stone easily just with a glance when it came to Via. He doesn't seem to have bodyguards other than Blitzo (I'm not counting the party staff because they seemed to moreso fit the bill of bouncers, not necessarily protecting Stolas, but the estate).
This is off topic, but that taco looks fucking awesome.
On an analysis video someone pointed out that he has a damsel in distress kink lol
16:12 a friend of mine animated that bit! If I remember right she also did the "his fat mom is DEAD" bit as well.
What’s their name? One of my favorite jokes in the whole series lol
1. Stolas is OP as f*... He just love Blitzø and want too spend more time with him.
2. Imps and hellhounds are hellborns. They're not sinners (who died on earth and were judged to be send to hell) they might be objectively good because of that
3. Killing Stolas is very big NoNo, he's the keeper of time. Moxxie freak out when he understood the weight of this situation. Blitzø does not even believe it's possible to hurt Stolas.
I'm glad to see your next reactions to this series. Can't wait for more
He isn't the keeper of time, he is a royal and very powerful though
Yeah his thing is like space and prophecy
Stolas isn't the keeper of time. His job is just to study the stars in order to find prophesies or something.
He can also manipulate stuff involving space/celestial bodies, I guess, since we saw him do so at the harvest festival thing.
22:58 Hello yes I'm the comment guy. the answer is you're right, he doesn't need bodyguards. The only reason he invited blitz to looloo land was because he wanted to be with him, the bodyguard thing was just an excuse. You can tell he's not in any real danger because of how relaxed he is when he's actively being kidnapped/assassinated, and how at the end of the episode he straight up turns a guy to stone when he's over everyone's shit
Honestly, probably also why Stolas isn't concerned at all when Stella is literally hiring an assassin to kill him right in from of him.
@@CryptidCritter I'd actually put it as Stolas showing how good he is now at shutting out the yelling, which is probably part of his daily schedule now
20:10 "so?, did you get them to confess?......... what do you mean by 'technically'?!-"
13:47 "If you ever wanna get me in the mood, like honestly just talk pretentious to me." is fucking hilarious and such a mood.
Moxxie: Hallucinates Phantom of the Opera
Blitz: Hallucinates a Tool music video
3:34 he aint pro 🔫guns🔫 hes pro 💪guns💪
"I missed my window to skip it" is the most relatable and ironic thing a youtuber could say 😂
4:57 "...this fucking Rango character." Holy shit, what a perfect descriptor.
5:20 Sallie Mays voice actor is actually Morgana Ignis and blitzøs is Brandon Rogers
it IS actually explained that stolas didnt need bodyguards in episode 2 since we see him literally turning an imp trying to attack him to stone in the end, he just rly wanted to see blitzø being hot😭
honest to GOD I cant wait for you to see episode 7, its my absolute favorite, s1 and s2 combined
FRRR plus the song in ep7 fuckinng bangs
@@SarahVanhove-j3u It *so* does. Especially now we know Oz and Fizz are actually really sweet. I’ve gone from begrudgingly admitting it’s great to just holy shit it’s so good
@@SarahVanhove-j3u what ever they were taking while making the episode/song, I want it too
Fun fact: Striker is voiced by Norman Reedus in episode 5!
No wonder he was so good
Thats the closest we will ever get to Norman Reedus singing.
I thought it was that Edward guy
@@PoppyGilbert-kt7xp Norman couldn't return as Striker due to scheduling conflicts, so Edward Bosco(also Alastor's voice in the Hazbin pilot) voices him in season 2.
i feel like striker being voiced by norman reedus was the only reason people liked him. whenever people spoke about striker they’d bring up how he’s cool “because he’s voiced by norman reedus”. striker is arguably one of the most interesting characters and people complain that they “ruined him” (they didn’t), but if norman was able to reprise the role i bet people wouldn’t have been complaining as much
19:36 I LOVE that nobody is mentioning how he accidentally edited himself and his video into the spot the show usually displays. I love little blips like that that just prove he's human
i was looking for someone to say LMAOOO
@@jolenesubminalsme too
Fun facts Sinners can only be in the pride ring while as hellborn demons can travel throughout any of the rings of hell
Too bad it's unclear if non-demons could also travel the rings of Hell. Like, could Vaggie (as an angel) travel the rings? Or a living human?
Also to make it even more confusing, the Pride Ring is divided in Nine Circles 😂, like regions.
The reason Stolas asked for a bodyguard wasn't because he needed protection, he just wanted an excuse to be around Blitz. By all means he's nearly invulnerable and practically a god. This gets shown off in a few areas, especially in his music video which you should totally check out.
10:10 Danny's face right here is killing me 😭
Stolas turned a guy to stone at one point in an earlier episode. I think he has bodyguards, not to protect himself, but to trick others into thinking he’s not invincible so civilians feel safe around him
Nah he just wants an excuse to spend more time with Blitzø
I mean any angelic guns can kill him at any range so he isn't as Invincible as you might think I can understand wanting or needing guards when even with all that power you are in hell,a place with no rules and full of ALL the murderers I can understand definitely needing guards
Unless angelic weapons are involved, Stolas doesn't need a body guard he early just wanted an excuse to hang out and flirt with Blitzo. Millie's sister Sallie May is actually voiced by actress Morgana Ignis. Fun video Danny your struggles with Barbara were a fun touch.
The comment you made about ads having a storyline, this is why those goldfish commercials will never be beaten because at one point they did have a story introduced new characters/new flavors and I was invested in their story. And it is not exactly hard to create a story connected to a product when there is already mascots or characters attached. Like cereal and other kids products it can be so easy to make a fun commercial but also add story elements to keep them invested and watching the ads.
I love Millies sister response to why Millie is disqualified from The Pain Games and her killing everyone "it only counts if they find the bodies" 🤣 also, fun fact, Striker is Daryl Dixon from Walking Dead and during the absolutely EPIC battle scene, the music changes and matches whoever the camera is focused on i.e. country style for Millie, more primal for Luna, etc. God, i frickin love this show
Stolas doesn't need bodyguards most of the time, lol. He just wanted an excuse to have Blitz around.
I remember the wait for this episode. It was taking longer than usual for this ep to come out; not that we ever get an actual release date for an episode, but at that time there was usually about two or three months between episodes. Then we saw the episode, saw Moxxie's hallucination scene and then especially that KICKASS fight scene and were like, "Oh. That's why."
Yes me too, I remember how long this episode took to come out and fucking worth it it was when it dropped
I honestly never realised Moxxie said Carmine, that's so cool there hasn't really been much explicit connections in the shows
but on that note, I like how MatPat put it:
the show's are juxtaposing each other, fighting each other's premises by simply existing
Charlie is trying to lessen the amount of souls in hell, while Blitzo is actively trying to kill as many people, adding to the population. fun little thought about the connections that Vivzie has made with the two shows
17:08 I think most people are of the belief that Blitzø is just jealous of the relationship that M&M have because he's a lonely guy who pushes away everyone who shows him love and has shit self-esteem.
Millie's sister, Sallie Mae, isn't voice by Brandon Rogers, she's actually voiced by Morgana Ignis. And she's trans!
Love her sm 🫶🏻
She's absolutely wonderful and I met her at anime Detour this year. Got her autograph too
That expression during the fight scene is everything I was hoping for.
They worked hella hard on it.
Fun fact: you were talking about how great commercials would be if they were a continuous series to keep track of. I highly recommend you reacting to the Japanese “ long long man” commercials then. There’s a complete list of them on UA-cam. Not only is the complete story great, it also has a mega twist at the end.
WE NEED A LIVE REACTIPN OF LONG LONG MAN
OH MY GOD YES I WANT TO SEE DANNY REACT TO THE LONG LONG MAN SAGA
10:30-10:45 “It would make sense for him to hiss if he was a rattlesnake demon, but he’s not… He’s a long rat.”
Me: *wheezes at Striker being bullied for several moments* Actually, Striker is canonically half-rattlesnake demon. It’s why his tail rattles.
Bro still hasn't noticed that the imps and hellhounds are hellborn😂❤
screamed when i saw the notification 😭😭
Honestly sameeeee
FFRRRR
legit was about to comment this🤣
FRRRRRRRRR❤❤❤❤
Same 😭
The reason Stolas has bodyguards is better than that. He doesn't need bodyguards, he just wants a reason to have Blitzø around lol
one of my favourite things about episode 6 is during the fight sequence, each character has their own music, and when you get 2 of them in the shot it layers the themes
The reason why Stolas has blitzo as bodyguard is because from what I remember it was because he just liked it? I mean stolas doesn't really care abt the assassination attempts since he's powerful 😅
Stolas when he’s literally being tied up and about to get stabbed:
Oh Blitzy~
I need my body guard please! 😇
Stolas when Blitz is protecting him:
You know it’s quite thrilling to see you on the job like this. *Touches his horns in a sexual way*
Stolas when Blitz is killing for him:
My, what good aim you have Blitzy.
Stolas when Blitz isn’t the one who saves him:
Where’s Blitzy? He’s my knight in shiny armour. Not you, littler ones.
Stolas when Blitz does the “Let’s go save our daughters” line and acts like his knight in shiny armour:
😳
Stolas when Blitz is in danger:
So you have chosen, death.
Stolas doesn't defend himself because he wants to feel loved and protected by others. And also he was raised up protected by bodyguards so to him it's normal behaviour.
He also just wanted an excuse to have Blitzo around him.
The way Danny at 22:24 was just shocked but also having his hand like this reminded me of stolas so much he’s great 🤣🤣
4:10 the deviantart comment is actually kinda accurate 😂 vivzie was just a deviantart artist before going into indie animation and making these shows
HOW DOES NO ONE NOTICE THAT IN THE BACKGROUND OF 24:59 , YOU CAN HEAR MUSIC FROM “look my way” I NOTICED THAT SO LONG AGO BUT NO ONE MENTIONS IT?? IF U LISTEN CLOSELY YOU CAN HEAR LIKE THE MUSICAL NUMBER AND ITS SO COOL, IT SHOWS HOW VIV LITERALLY ACKNOWLEDGES IT AND ADDS IT TO AN EPISODE, AND LATER SHE LITERALLY MAKES THE SONG CANON, LIKE CMON??
OH MY GOD YOU ARE RIGHT?!!!!!! 😱😱😱😱😱😱
Indeed! Perfect example of a musical motif connected to a specific character.
Wait really? I always thought it was from gilded jail
That is definitely Gilded Jail.
Yeah! that's Stolas's motif. You can often hear it playing when he's on-screen.
This is a pretty common sound design tool used to make the entire scene focus on a particular character.
I love how Danny can make ANYTHING funny like EVEN ADS BE PROUD OF THOSE JOKES
You genuinely got a 10 or more second laugh out of me with the saga of Barbara joke, I was dying of laughter.
I love how Danny thinks that was a Brightman imitation. Cannot wait until the two Brightman episodes at the end of season two. Looking forward to a FULL reaction to all of Fizzy's songs.
5:20 side note, sallie may is actually voiced by morgana ignis, not brandon rogers
Blitzo is in a way jealous of Millie, but also of Moxie, because they have such a nice and stable relationship, which Blitzo also craves. And it is kinda clear that he would like to third wheel in their relationship. Just look at the time he plays with two figurines of Millie and Moxie before Stolas invites him to Loo Loo land.
The reason stolas “needed” body guards is just that he wanted to spend time with blizo he never actually needed them it is established in the show that the only thing that can harm
Him is angelic weapons also the reason he never really defends himself is bc he never takes what ever “danger” that is happening seriously bc he know that he is very strong and only angel wepons can hurt him
Im so happy Danny is liking the show, and SO excited for S2 cuz it really ramps up its everything and i LOVE it
Moxy, Millie, Stolas, Blitz, Luna and most of the main characters in this show are not sinners but hellborn. There are 7 rings of hell, they go to the wrath ring for the festival and sinners can ONLY be in the first, the pride Ring. Hellborn are also not affected by the extermination.
6 episodes in and he still hasn’t learned that imps are hellborn, not sinners. Never change our oblivious king. 😂
Stiles can do cool stuff in hell… he just doesn’t do it frequently. He likes Blitz as a bodyguard, and Striker’s attempt probably would’ve worked because he didn’t expect it. One of the things he does in his introduction is open a portal to the moon to show his daughter
I’m here for helluva boss, but I’m living for Danny reacting to the ads lmao
to be fair, the episode that had Stolas want Blitz to be his bodyguard also showed Sotlas perfectly capable of defending himself in the end (turning the imps trying to kill him into stone), implying that he basically just wanted Blitz there for the sake of it (it's like being rescued by him is his kink or something)
I feel like the reason that HB is so good with its comedic moments is because of Brandon Rodgers (Blitzø's VA). He is hilarious and it reflects in this show
I’m so glad Danny includes squirrels in his intro. It feels so nice to be included 😌
About Stolas needing a Bodyguard. On Episode 2 at the end he just petrified a dude by looking at him, strongly implying that he never needed a bodyguard and just wanted Blitzø to save him
Danny: I don't care about Barbra.
Wade/LordMinion777: So, you know the truth.
15:11 "sorry for your FAT loss" gold
NAAHHH 😂 instead of “talk dirty to me”, it’s “talk pretentious to me” 13:52
The side plot of Barbara through ads is perfect
Millie's mom was born in Hell, but I"ll grant that "her thighs probably caused the Rapture" is a good line. 😂
The "Long Long Man" series of linked commercials from Japanese TV is the saga you've been looking for. Perfect blind reaction material for your style. Barb from Turbotax is seething with jealousy.
"I just wasn't expecting a cool fight scene to show up in Helluva Boss, you know?" - Cue twenty thousand viewers making the same noise.
Just a quick mention, every character in Hellavu Boss, save for I.M.P.'s clients, aren't Sinners like the characters from Hazbin Hotel (except for Charlie, Vaggie, and Lucifer). All the characters here are Hellborn, i.e. born and raised in Hell, not humans who died and got sent to Hell. Meaning that Blitzø, his crew, Stolas, and the rest are straight up demons. While both shows do take place in the same universe, this is often a misconception do to neither show ever addressing this particular distinction between the species of Hell 😅. Apologies if that was never made clear to you in your watchthrough so far 😆.
Stolas literally just likes having bodyguards it’s great
Moxxie being attack by the shark Is so hilariously ironic after seeing season two :v
I feel like we should inform Danny that there’s a song during the credits of episode 8 he should listen to. Missing out on Monster’s Ball would be a shame
I love the fight scene with Striker, it’s so visceral. Ep. 6 is very good, but Ep. 5 will always have a special place in my heart just because of how cool Striker is in that one.
Stryker ~is a rattlesnake imp hybrid, lol. I love that Danny isntantly was like "hes a weasel!l
Oh he absolutely is a weasel. Just not biologically.
When danny said," you're not a rattlesnake demon".😢
Danny isn't prepared for the rest of this show, it only gets better from here
Thanks! This was a great vid and I love your commentary❤
"Sorry for your fat loss." Killed me😂
One of my favorite lines in the entire show (idk if it was in the video) is Verosika telling Blitzø that he shoves away anyone who gets too close ❤❤
23:50 my personal theory is that nothing says an angel doesn't have the strength to harm other angels. Or maybe angels in themselves count as an angelic weapon.
23:23 oh fuck no. Stolas is like a badass all around but hes just mildly chill while in Hell because nothing bad really happens to him
@randomdoggo9489 Stolas: BLLLLIIIIITTTTTZZZZ!
@randomdoggo9489 unless he does it in the upcoming episodes. The trailer for the next 5 episodes was amazing
@randomdoggo9489 maybe. I like the theory though. Heck maybe he'll even get on a deeper connection with Loona.
6:51
As soon as you said "I don't have any words of encouragement-" I got an ad for grammarly that started by asking "lost for words?"
Idk. I just thought it was ironic
The part where the golden feathers from Stolas burn Blitzø and he screams in his bad trip is stuck in my brain in the best way, that's when the show owned me and I became addicted
