I don’t think ‘Altruist’ is his last name. He was giving a hypothetical headline for if he had died. They clip words from headlines to save space, but the intended meaning would have been “Alastor the Altruist”, since dying to protect the Hotel members would have been an altruistic act.
@@TomSketchit Yeah you're probably right. I got too fixated on the subtitles, but when I really listen to how he's delivering the line, that's what it seems
By definitin it means: "a person who cares about others and helps them despite not gaining anything by doing this: Altruists have a strong desire to help other people. She was an altruist and idealist. See. altruism." it could have been just in the context of him seemingly having sacrificed himself or seeming like a helpful soul but it being hos last name could also be pretty cool
The first one banished from Heaven was an angel that took the form of a snake. Fitting that the first one redeemed back from Hell was a snake that gained the form of an angel.
It is no wonder that the snake is the sign of rebirth, some are reborn for good, and others are reborn for evil. (And by evil, I mean in the vision of angels, of course).
Lucifer’s flexing on how Adam’s wives left, or betrayed him because of Lucifer’s actions (all while he beat Adam’s ass) *killed me* “Well, your first wife didn’t mind what I had to offer… or the second.” 😂 peak shit talk
There's a theory going around that Lucifer's deal with heaven was "you can kill sinners and I won't interfere but you can't kill hellborns" That's why he couldn't show up to help from the start, Lucifer only comes to help when his daughter's life was on the line bc that breaks the deal
Hate to be that guy but it's not a theory. Lute confirmed it with the sentence "the only reason you're still alive is because daddy pardoned you and the rest of the hellborn from an exorcist blade." (Im paraphrasing, but she does use some of those words)
@@lordiedams348 okay technically yes, we don't know for sure HOW it was stopping him, but we know the deal was why he never stepped in for prior exterminations
So many things to say!! 8:58, Angel in the pilot: Kills an egg Angel in this episode: Saves an egg. Haha, Lucifer hitting Adam where it hurt! Charlie’s battle look and demon form is gorgeous!
I like how whoever approved his redemption made him respawn right in front of the seraphs. They also know he was a sinner because he was there when they were watching Angel Dust. There's no misinterpreting that.
She is happy becouse Pentious is a proof she needed that souls can redeem themselfs and shows that Charlies idea works. Soul can change and get into heaven...and I love how God throws it right into Seras face xD
Screw him, he did it to himself for beign such a d...k, God did not save Adam couse he was a selfsh sinner after all. Like he was ok untill he yelled that they should worship him like a god...I guess he lost Gods gift and protection at this point. Also I love how God rubs it into Seras face with Pentious spawning right in that private room and not in front of the gate.
They should’ve had a call back. Lucifer: That little freak show of yours is quite the killer huh? Charlie: Well we’re about 20 percent sure she’s harmless!
Hearing Alastor`s regular voice was so unexpected, also love that Charlie and Lucifer were in demon mode against Adam. I`m guessing the reason why Lilith has been living in Heaven for seven years is because she probably couldn`t stead living in Hell.
Altruist isn't his last name. He was singing like it was an epitaph. What almost was because he tried to help. The lyrics are "Great Alastor, altruist, died for his friends," Sorry to disappoint, that is not where this ends.
@@lakicoza No an altruist means the exact opposite of what you just said. Altruism is selflessly helping others with no desire for personal gain. It's being good for goodness sake. If you look at Alastors eyes he's saying it with disgust and irony. Meaning he hates the thought that he almost died in a way that looked like he was selflessly helping his friends.
@@emilyschomer6715 He worked on this movie from the 1980s, called gremlins which was about murderous little monsters, and one of them had a knife at some point in the movie. You can imagine how it turned out. I do recommend the movie though, it's actually pretty funny.
That war was absolutely crazy. Especially when Charlie started using her true powers and Lucifer showed up. I'm proud of Sir Pentious. His sacrifice will never be forgotten. And he proved Charlie right, that a soul CAN be redeemed into Heaven.
That was honestly the only part that felt shoddily written. Why wasn't he there at the start? It would've been better if Lucifer was trapped by heaven and Charlie defeated Adam by herself, she clearly has the power to do it. Once the head honcho showed up the stakes instantly disappeared.
@@anitaremenarova6662 He wasn't there from the start because he originally wasn't worthy. But he worked on himself and died to try and protect his friends, and all that got him into heaven
Part of me thinks Charlie was still holding back. She stopped Adam's punch in a way she didn't previously so, maybe there's more to her abilities we haven't seen yet?
@@randypants0072 I'm talking about Lucifer here. You always have to be careful when writing overpowered characters because you'll need to justify why there weren't there during an important conflict other than plot convenience.
@@anitaremenarova6662To be fair, it was already established that Lucifer had a very "hands-off" approach about ruling hell. The dude was more busy with making rubber ducks than getting involved with his kingdom's ruling or his daughter's life, and he only patched things up with Charlie VERY recently. Considering that Charlie only told a select amount of people about her upcoming battle with the angels, Lucifer probably didn't hear about it until he happened to look out a window and saw the heavenly portal floating over the hotel.
This is why I'm becoming more and more convinced that he made his deal with someone connected to the dark entity that was briefly referenced in the intro of ep 1. Not only has his shadow become increasingly more monstrous in form, the fact that he possesses shadow based abilities and powers is incredibly similar to the Disney villain, Dr, Facilier, and BOTH characters are practitioners of voodoo. I have a strong feeling Alastor is in a similar situation that Dr Facilier was in over his deal with his "Friends on the other side". Alastor is desperate to get out of this deal and another thing I noticed is that, he is the only Sinner so far who has a specific power set and type (shadows and darkness). He also never uses it wrecklessly either, unless he needs to. I'm almost certain he was granted this power in his deal, or at least, what power he had was heavily amplified, due to the finale making it clear that his Mic staff is a primary source for his shadow magic. Whether it be this mystery character Roo, the dark entity referenced in ep 1 intro or someone else tied to that darkness, I'm sittin on my theory for now that Alastor is contracted to this Darkness and he wants out badly. But, we shall see, I'm probably wrong xD.
When Alastor called himself, 'Alastor Altruist'. That wans't his last name, the deffinition for altruist is "showing a disinterested and selfless concern for the well-being of others; unselfish". My current theory being that Alastor is on someone's leash, forcing him to stay at the hotel, but he's actually grown accustomed and attached to the members.
Fun fact: We had 2 kisses this episode! Vox and Valentino had a kiss scene during the very end of the song. I have a feeling they will be a large part in Season 2.
The way I was screaming and all hyped up throughout the episode 😂 Especially at the end there. Like, what????? Also. Alastor is still a big freaking mystery but I think we can definitely see him growing attached to our crew and actually caring about them genuinely.
especially with carmillas song abt how fighting for love makes you more powerful, i think its possible he could become powerful as fuck if he started actually fighting for charlie - im a bit doubtful he'll turn out good but im holding onto hope lol
@@alastor3609I don’t think he’ll ever be fully “good” but MAN am I hoping for antihero and not complete villain, I don’t want him to have a bad ending ;-;
On some level you kinda feel bad for Lute and Adam. The fact that she cried over him and Adam’s last action before dying was smiling at her face (almost as if he’s happy there was at least one person who actually cared about him, given his obvious complex). It’s kind of like Kingpin in “Daredevil/Echo”. They’re monsters but are still capable of love. It actually does make them more evil in a way, that they can be kind and good, but CHOOSE not to be
I been saying this about Adam. I know a lot of the fanbase hate him and write him off as a chauvinistic, self-centered prick (which is very true), but I found myself feeling sorry for him when he was ranting, completely unmasked, beatup and ragged and he sounded confused, scared and desperate. It almost sounded as if his worldview and what he believed was cracked and he was grasping so hard to cling to it. In a way he honestly did believe what he was doing and what he knew, was right and it seems a bit tragic. Some part ofme kinda wishes that he might come back as a Sinner and maybe try to attempt redemption the proper way, but it probably won't happen. I'm not excusing his actions, oh no, but it just seems a bit more tragic to me that he clung so deeply to what he knew, especially after that tragically serene smile he gave before he died. But these are just my ponderings xD.
@@DarklightNamari He was given Mercy by sinners and that must sting a lot, mercy something he never gave to anyone as he was murdering then and laughing. He mostly lost Gods protection when he yelled that they should worship him as god, Adam was seen as a sinner.
@@Zibi21 God as a character doesn't exist in the show, it was the angels themselves who made the universe and mankind. I get what you mean but I disagree on the statement.
@@DarklightNamariBut then again if God doesn't exist in this universe what "God" as a word on itself would mean? If there's no God, then there shouldn't be the word "God" too.
@@DarklightNamari Right? It's the "Don't cry, it's alright" smile that made me think that about him. He's up there with Kingpin, Darth Maul, & Ultron as pure evil villains that, while not so much being sympathetic, manage to be very humanized
Between his little bit with Rosie last episode and his speech at the radio tower here, I think it's looking a lot like Alastor might end up being the ultimate villain of the show.
@@Virginny Again, judging by what I've seen so far, I'm not sure... but giving him the ultimate redemption *would* be in line with the main themes we've seen in the first season. We'll just have to wait and see!
Lilith owning Alastor’s soul made so much sense when we were looking at it from the perspective of a mother who wanted her daughter’s dream to have extra protection. Now we know she’s just a jerk who constantly tore Charlie from Lucifer during childhood, and ultimately abandoned her family. People have started to theorize that Eve might have Alastor’s soul. I’ve been wondering where she was this entire time, because we haven’t seen her in Heaven or Hell. Why Eve could want Alastor’s soul is murky to me. All my mind keeps going back to is ep 5 when Alastor said “It’s time I remind everyone why I’m here.” He earlier claimed it was to watch people fail, but he proceeded to protect the hotel. Either he was acting of his own desire to defend them, or it’s in the deal… I don’t know. There are so many theories buzzing through my mind.
Why do I get the vibe that Alastor is disgusted that he nearly died for others? Hence why he wants freedom after that experience but he's deal won't allow it and he is searching for a way out. His deal has to have something to do with him being stuck to the Hotel.
So it's a strange thing to consider when you stack facts: 1. Alastor doesn't ever seem to underestimate others, and is confident in his power but is aware it has a cap. 2. Alastor knew that only angelic weapons can kill Heavenly or Hellish souls, yet he didn't wield one against Adam, and was so confident he outright stated he was going to end his life. 3. His deal indicates not only servitude, but also a restraint on his power; hence, why he was so confused as to why Adam was able to nearly kill him. As he sings, "unclip my wings", meaning his "wings were clipped", i.e. freedom taken away and ability to do what is natural taken away. So my determination is that whatever the case may be, he is frightened by his power being limited, and therefore, making him more vulnerable than he likes. Crazy theory time: I think that Alastor wants, above all else, as an end goal, to be the ruler of Hell. In life, he was a serial killer kinda along the lines of Dexter, which indicates that he wants people to get what they deserve. He THRIVES on the suffering of those who deserve it, who cannot better themselves. What better job than to be the one who torments the deservedly damned for all time? To achieve this, he needs to have the throne. How to have the throne? Marry Charlie. Not for romance or anything, just so that he could be heir to the throne, and take said throne when passed to him. This also would explain in part why he has something against Lucifer; he's not really a great ruler for Hell. To Alastor, this could even be seen as insulting and offensive when the throne should rightfully be his, as he's of the opinion he's the best for the job. Remember the pilot, what he enjoys most is to see people, essentially, suffer in hell with no way out who fail to better themselves. He may have initially believed that those who are in Hell deserve it, but he has not once actually sabotaged anyone's attempts at it. Never tried to trick or mess with Angel, nor did he ever try to ruin anything for Pentius, and he EASILY could have. And that might be where things get tricky; how the hell is Charlie heir to the throne when they are, essentially, immortal beings in the afterlife that cannot die by natural causes? Welp. That means Lucifer's death, by his hands or machinations. So... Yeah. Crazy theory I've developed, but I think it fits what we know and have seen. Edit: regarding his deal with Charlie? I think all it's going to be is "Marry me." of which, he isn't asking her to harm anyone, but Alastor knows that she loves Vaggie, and would probably argue that he DID make her harm someone with the favor, to which he could then allow her to then separate and divorce the marriage, wherein he keeps the throne, and she can marry Vaggie. That's under the supposition that Charlie and Vaggie want to get married or if that is even important to them as an act. Buuuuut given that she's a Disney Princess of Hell, it probably is, lol.
@@magustobias8827 Honestly I had a similar thought. Something happenes to Lucifer that forces Charlie to take the throne of Hell. (dies, goes away , retires to build a duck caste ... doesnt matter ) Alastor comes in to the new Queen of Hell for that "favor without harming anyone". A.k.a "Abandon your throne and let me have it." Thus making Alastor the new ruler and maybe this way he can escape his chain.
@@magustobias8827 Alastor might be cocky with his power , but he is calculated and in it for the long game. He waited months for Charlie to be at her lowest emotionally to strike that deal with her in exchange for that intel he had for months.
There was so much in this episode. Lucifer’s fight was hilarious and awesome. During Alastor’s skirmish, it was so cool to see his burst of power, and his *final song* . OmL. Short but great. You can see the insanity and desperation in his eyes. Also, I love they chose Niffty to taken Adam down. She finally got to put her stabbing tendencies to the ultimate test. I just hope Pentious’ eggs join him up there. His anti-climactic death is the only thing I think could’ve been better. At least let him get *one shot* in.
Once you watched this show once, our best way of re-watching it for the first time is to watch good reaction videos. Wanted to say I watched many and enjoyed yours the most :) there's an art to series reaction videos and I think you nailed it in the best way possible, I re-lived the fun of this show through your reaction thank you for that!
Oh my goodness thank you so much! It’s very appreciated, and I’m glad you found a lot of enjoyment in my Hazbin Hotel reactions. It was a ton of fun to watch
What if Alastor stops the overlords being reborn by keeping them (and their power) inside his head or inside him. Their souls are part of him, that is why he can broadcast their screams, becaue they are inside him. But in so doing he is living with the voices and agony of his fallen enemies constantly. He cannot release them because they would be reborn, but keeping them inside him is driving him mad, for 7 years he hid away, slowly having his mind broken by the constant wails and screams of those whose powers he has absorbed, the souls he has taken, before he could not take it anymore - so he made a deal with someone out of desperation, in my opinion one of the sins - this deal silenced the voices, but also held back their power, an unforseen consequence or perhaps a badly worded deal. He cannot get his true power back without the insanity returning, this has left him stuck in limbo while also being in service to another. But now a different kind of insanity is starting to take it's toll - being controlled by someone else. Now he is the prisoner. he is with Charlie because he sees it as the best way to unshackle himself - not because he has been ordered to be there.
Nice theory but it doesn't make any sense, he already had all the power pretty much instantly after he got into hell which means he made a deal for it BEFORE he started kidnapping overlords. He also quote "tears your soul apart" to get the screams for his radio broadcast which would destroy it in the process. He made a deal with a more ancient evil than the sins to have the power to erase souls.
@@anitaremenarova6662 That could be down to the fact he practices voodoo while he was alive and already had a handle on his demonic soul - an advantage not many others have. tearing a soul apart doesn't mean it's gone forever. Sinners are just reborn. What if he could trap them in an endless cycle of being reborn into him, using his own power to tear them apart over and over. It is also possible he was simply lying to husk, using his reputation as a weapon to get him to shut up.
@@Whoami691 Could be but that seems like a copout answer, he wouldn't be the first sinner in history to practice voodoo, far from it. Sinners reform when their bodies are destroyed, not their souls. If that were the case all the overlords Alastor erased would be plotting his downfall with Vox rn.
The one thing i know that's going yo happen in S2, it would mainly go about a character who was fun to write in S1, and they admitted that Adam was fun to write. So my theory is that, he will be back as a sinner
Not hard to predict, the show that's all about redemption wouldn't make any sense if he didn't get the chance just for being a racist asshole. Alastor will be the real irredeemable evil by the end of the series.
Sinner Adam would certainly have an affect on Lute. And Angel(potentially even Seraph) Ser Pentius is gonna have heaven questioning a lot about their decisions.
I like how you laughed at all the parts I laughed at. Hazbin Hotel has been quite a ride. I'm normally not a fan of the overdone cursing and sex jokes but somehow it works (perhaps cuase it makes sense in hell) regardless, I found the season enjoyable. Alastor's New VA grew on me and his last chorus in this episode really strikes home. This is the one time we see him going crazy and actually kinda losing it. Other then that, i do wish we had more of the V's but what we got we great. Overall, i enjoyed it
Imagine in the second season Charlie having another meeting with Sera and Emily, and Em is like "Someone wants to see you again." only for Charlie to meet up with Sir Pentius and realize that everything they're doing at the hotel works. That would only help her to double her efforts in rehabilitation of everyone she can.
First she needs to understand the rules, what gets you in heaven in the first place. I guess this will be something Charlie and Em will be working on...and Lilith will mostly try and talk doubts into her to make her stop.
My highlights of this episode, not counting the fight scenes, were Vox’s “ho-ly sh*t” (it was easily his quietest line of the episode he was so stunned but it made me laugh hardest) and Emily’s reaction to Pentious arriving in Heaven, just that whole scene from his confusion to Emily’s “oh dear God, _yes!”_ face and Sera’s “oh dear God, _no!”_ face … this was just a Chef’s Kiss moment for me. And you posting your reaction today is a great start to my Cake Day 😄😄😄 Thanks for the reaction Mikey and hug your furbabies all 🎁🎂💙🐱💙🎂🎁
I keep laughing at all the folks who, like, forget that _altruist is a word._ I _really_ don't think that was a name reveal. Cause it'd be like if he was Alastor Garbage Disposal or something. Ain't nobody named that.
If Alastor did make a deal with Lilith it explains why he had so much freedom within hell. If it is true seeing her come back to Hell may be very interesting and we may see Alastor drop his smile
The leading thoery regarding Lucifer's involvement or lack thereof & the original deal with the extermination, was that Luci agreed not to interfere with the exterminators as long as they stuck to Sinners only, & didnt kill Hellborn. When Charlie's life came under threat, the deal broke, & all bets were off, which might explain why he only showed up at the last minute, despite being the strongest one there!
I wonder how Pentious will do in heaven and if we will see him in season 2 Also,with Niffty I love her moments in this episode especially killing Adam,Rosie with her cannibals,Vaggie versus Lute was epic and I’m curious why she spared Lute instead of killing her permanently.
Here's what I've been thinking for a few episodes now, and what I thought might actually hold some ground during episode 7. I don't know if anyone else proposed this, I'm assuming someone must have but I haven't really followed theories. But Alastor brought up his deal explicitly this episode and while there's no way to know the full details of his contract, one thing I'm becoming more and more suspicious of is this: What is his deal forbids him from making any more deals for souls? *Specifically* souls. We've seen he can still make deals, but he laughed off the idea of making the deals for their souls each time, and even brushed off Rosie's offer when it would have been easy pickings. That last one especially was interesting, when it would have been an easy detour for him. And then saying how once he's free of his chains, he can start pulling all the strings. What if he's not taking any more souls, because he CAN'T anymore?
Call back Joke to the first episode of Helluva Boss aka missed joke here.. Lucifer: "You messed with my daughter and now i am going to f*ck you!!" Awkward silence Charlie: "It is called I f*ck you up, dad" Lucifer: "Mine's better"
I like to think that when razzle/dazzle (i can't remember which one died) died Lucifer sensed it, since he's the one who gave them life and started heading toward charlie
I don't understand why Charlie didn't call her dad and explain the whole, some one is coming to murder her thing. Even more so in Episode 1, we were told she had a pardon from the exorcists as part of a deal Lucifer made. So Adam was breaking a contract, also going to murder Charlie, and what not. It feels like a, he should really have been informed of the situation. A simple line like, "oh shit was that today?" or something like that could have been the lantern so it didn't feel like a bit of a plothole.
@@TheJadeFistI like to think that he knew it was happening, he told Adam if he forgot he's in his house, so I think Lucifer should've been partially aware that this entire fight was going on but couldn't butt in until Adam went after Charlie. Other thing is also that maybe Charlie told him about it, or he just showed up randomly because we haven't seen where he lives so he could've just seen the portal open above the hotel.
Bro Sir Pentious really displayed the "stick it to the man" requirement and he fucking owned it. He charged at his demise and straight up died to save those he loved. Also, Charlie's transformation moment is literally Gohan going SSJ2
Something I saw pointed out that may or may not have been intended, but is really cool, is that Lucifier only showed up after one of her "pet sacrificial lambs" died.
"Altruist" isn't Alastor's last name; it was capitalized in the subtitles because he was using the word as a title (and thus a proper noun) in a hypothetical headline describing the way it looks like he died altruisticly, protecting others. Alastor the Altruist.
something that I think people don't seem to connect is the fact in hells hierarchy of power Lilith is on the same level as Charlie, just under lucifer. If Lilith is that powerful, and Adam is made the same as her, its logical to assume Adam and Lilith are on the same or similar power levels. Yet everyone seems shocked Adam nearly killed Alastor...
If Niffty had happened to be nearby when Lute was pinned, we could have just completely skipped what I'm going to assume will be the entire plot of season 2.
The reason in the diegesis why they didn't kill Adam and the other angel is because the purpose of the hotel is to rehabilitate the demons. And when a demon proves himself better than an angel, what does that mean for the angel? For the demon? Lucifer didn't kill Adam because Charlie asked him not to. Vaggie didn't kill the other one (yeah, her name really doesn't stick in my memory) not only because it means that the angel will have to live her whole life knowing that she's a failure only being alive because that the one she despised deemed her too insignificant to be killed, but also because she believes in Charlie and that unlike Paradise, she intends to act in accordance with her words. Charlie is sooooo cool as a demonic princess. Lucifer is really adorable and in his full Demon's King form, absolutly gorgeous. Every time he is on screen I am happy. And oh my devil I got my money's worth. What did he do with Eve?! Is it just the apple or did she get fed up with Adam and went to have a threesome with Lucifer and Lilith?! If it's the latter option, who could blame her? My god Alastor! We love you but we fear you. Da fuck was that?! A theory I came up with is like this. For a demon to be redeemed it would take three things: 1) That he dies in hell so he can be re-tried 2) That his soul is “clean” whatever that means 3) That his soul is free, that is to say that he has not sold his soul to another demon. I wonder what the deal is with Lilith. We'll see that in season 2.
The more I think on the episode, the more questions I’m left with. I’m glad they are carrying over the Alastor stuff. Him suffering a defeat is a big deal, so I’m curious what his next move will be. And yeah Lucifer was absolutely amazing in this episode. I’m glad they showcased his power
@@MikeyVenture This allows you to put his power into perspective. Alastor is powerful enough to fight against Adam whose raw power is just crazy, but he remains vastly outclassed. Unless he was just pretending but I don't think that's the case and I wish I was right. Charlie on the other hand does better (and I don't think she has the experience of Alastor) and Lucifer totally crushes Adam. His transformations were just magical, he was watching the duel between Merlin and Madame Mim just before and that's why he was late. I wonder the psychological weight felt by the demons who sold their souls. Because of course, Alastor has always been crazy, but during the song it was particularly blatant.
Adam's death was freaking satisfying. Like none of this wouldn't happen if he all he could've done was just accepting charlie's idea. Charlie tried so hard to do this peacefully since episode one, but adam just kept going with his bullshit talk about being superior and always insulting and belittling charlie as much as he wanted. Now karma got him hard, and man it was awesome. Thank you, Nifty! 😂 Also! Emily's face when she saw sir pentious in his angel form was freaking cute!! Goes to show that charlie's idea really works 😊
Valentino must be glad that he was not stabbed by lil missy in that bar. Now he must watch his back too after he saw her madness, hurt Angel and that lil asasin will gets ya.
Same as the last video, I forgot to comment on these two so i will say now what I would have then. I can’t wait for the show to go on in season 2 and keep redeeming people or give us new villains. Great wrap up to a first season. Great video loved the reaction. It’s january 27th this is part 11/11 for now.
Another thing I can't stop thinking about is how Adam and Lute took Vaggie's halo when she fell, and Lute took Adams halo when he died, as if its significant like the halo is more important to take than the weapons. Which got me thinking about the beheaded angel. Adam and Lute found the body and the V's found the head, but it wasn't with the head when she presented it to the overlords. Do they have the halo and is that significant??
What's nice is you can actually hear husks in the final song, cuz normally you can't hear a lot of deep voices unless there's at least three or more, but the husk is the only one that has a really deep voice and you can actually hear him. I was in choir and when the boys sang unless there was more than three you couldn't really hear the deep notes when we all sang together, there were a few of their voices that did poked through but it was still kind of hard to hear them. Husk is the only really deep voice and you can actually hear him poking through the song
1. Alastor didnt go back to his old radio tower the one he goes back to in the song is the one we see haning off the side of the hotel in a earlier episode also i belive what shook alastor so much is the fact that this is his first true loss cause if you remeber back when penstiouse came to the hotel and handed back the scrap of alastors coat alastor mentiond no one had manedge to get even that much off of him it shows in all the fights alastor has been in he has always come out on top but to struck down by adam made him realize he isent that strong after all and it could be those restraints his deal holds that is limiting his power keeping him in check
a really interesting point that adds onto the theory that vox and alastor use to be close friends is in the last song when vox sings 'overlords hanging by a thread' it shows a picture of alastor in which part of the picture was torn off and you can just about see vox in it
Would be fun if her arc in upcoming seasons was learning to accept Adam newly reincarnated into a sinner demon. It'll probably just be a boring revenge plot though.
I don't think Altruist is Alastors last name. It is the word for a human who always puts others first, a truly good being. That sort of stuff. He was spinning the tale about how he safed his friends there and stated that's not what he wants.
I just have to say I think you’re so good at this, reacting thing. I truly enjoy your commentary. The people who give you shit don’t know how making yt videos works haha. New sub, and rooting for you to keep succeeding 👍🏽 you should be proud of yourself.
A random thing that struck me immediately when they showed Lilith is that Charlie has the same nose as her. Makes sense, given it's her biological daughter, except the woman in the family portraits does not have that nose. Plus, Lilith's eyes were covered by sunglasses so we can't compare those either. Then there's the fact that we don't see "Lilith's" face in the flashback, which now seems purposeful rather than an artistic choice for that scene. Finally, Lucifer made reference to Eve when shit talking Adam, which was played as a joke but could actually important. Given all these little tidbits of information, when I was rewatching earlier episodes it hit me that the woman being referred to as Charlie's mom was never once stated to be Lilith. We've been connecting obvious dots to come to logical conclusions, but what if it was a red herring? What if the woman that Charlie refers to as mom, that raised her before splitting from Lucifer, and that's been missing for seven years is actually Eve? Just my two cents. In any case, I feel like Eve is going to come into play in some way that most people aren't expecting.
One thing i find a lot of ppl FORGET is that Loot mentions in episode 1 that the only reason why Charlie is never harmed during an extermination is because all hell-born, like Charlie, have a pardon. It's part of the deal. I feel like it'll be addressed that Adam violated that by trying to hurt Charlie. Loot mentioned that bcuz Adam is dead the deal with Lilith is done, I'm assuming because Adam was apart of it, along with Sera, Lilith has to leave heaven and deal with hell again because Charlie is no longer off limits.
As far as Alastor and what we know thus far, he's a human sinner, and Angels by default tend to be stronger than human sinners ^It's a bit different with Lucifer since he's an Angel, and hell-born like Charlie who's his daughter
I LOVE that Niffty was the one to take Adam down: after all his bragging about how great he was, he was killed by, as Katie puts it, "a filthy janitor", a nobody with no real power besides a knife and a desire to use it! Just goes to show that he wasn't as great as he thought!
*The subtitles for the episode capitalized the word "Altruist," which led me to believe that could have been Alastor's last name. Thoughts?*

Thays what i thought until I searched the definition. I'm not sure though, maybe it's both?
I don’t think ‘Altruist’ is his last name. He was giving a hypothetical headline for if he had died. They clip words from headlines to save space, but the intended meaning would have been “Alastor the Altruist”, since dying to protect the Hotel members would have been an altruistic act.
I think it was a typo. Think it might more accurately be "Alastor, altruist, died for his friends", calling himself an altruist in the eyes of others.
@@TomSketchit Yeah you're probably right. I got too fixated on the subtitles, but when I really listen to how he's delivering the line, that's what it seems
By definitin it means:
"a person who cares about others and helps them despite not gaining anything by doing this: Altruists have a strong desire to help other people. She was an altruist and idealist. See. altruism."
it could have been just in the context of him seemingly having sacrificed himself or seeming like a helpful soul
but it being hos last name could also be pretty cool
The first one banished from Heaven was an angel that took the form of a snake. Fitting that the first one redeemed back from Hell was a snake that gained the form of an angel.
I have not realise that
That is very poetic
It is no wonder that the snake is the sign of rebirth, some are reborn for good, and others are reborn for evil.
(And by evil, I mean in the vision of angels, of course).
I just realized that you are completely right
That's, crazy
Fun fact: Adam’s design without the mask is based on Alex Brightman, his voice actor.
Oooooh I looked up a picture of him. It definitely is him 😂
Woah! :0 I hope they keep doing that with other characters, is that the same with lute?
Alex brightman was the true first man on earth confirmed
I’m amazed at how epic this entire season was. Lucifer flexing on Adam was definitely the cherry on top.
It really was beautiful to see how easy it was for Lucifer
Lucifer’s flexing on how Adam’s wives left, or betrayed him because of Lucifer’s actions (all while he beat Adam’s ass) *killed me*
“Well, your first wife didn’t mind what I had to offer… or the second.” 😂 peak shit talk
And it makes sense. Yes Adam is the Man but Lucifer is THE Angel, as in one of the highest. So yeah Adam was NEVER going to be a match for Lucifer.
Considering Sir Pentious was initially meant to be a one-time-use character for the Pilot alone, it's pretty cool how far his character has come.
There's a theory going around that Lucifer's deal with heaven was "you can kill sinners and I won't interfere but you can't kill hellborns"
That's why he couldn't show up to help from the start, Lucifer only comes to help when his daughter's life was on the line bc that breaks the deal
Hate to be that guy but it's not a theory. Lute confirmed it with the sentence "the only reason you're still alive is because daddy pardoned you and the rest of the hellborn from an exorcist blade." (Im paraphrasing, but she does use some of those words)
@@burbusburbus8782 except it Is a theory. we do not have a actual full explanation of how the deal worked.
@@lordiedams348 okay technically yes, we don't know for sure HOW it was stopping him, but we know the deal was why he never stepped in for prior exterminations
@@lordiedams348Well the overpopulation problem is cause of the Sinners so it makes sense why Heaven would’ve been like, “Yeah sure whatever.”
So many things to say!!
8:58, Angel in the pilot: Kills an egg
Angel in this episode: Saves an egg.
Haha, Lucifer hitting Adam where it hurt!
Charlie’s battle look and demon form is gorgeous!
Pentious died in 1888. He spent 136 years in hell until Charlie came along, said i can change you... Amd she did. And now he's in paradise
actually he's in heaven. Not paradise
@@Cry_ct are you dense?
@@Cry_ct you realize heaven is commonly referred to as Paradise. They're interchangeable.
@@Kolossus_ There can be other paradises. Amaurot, in Thomas Moore's Utopia, for example.
@@DayleDiamond don't care, not interested.
I like how whoever approved his redemption made him respawn right in front of the seraphs. They also know he was a sinner because he was there when they were watching Angel Dust. There's no misinterpreting that.
I love how happy Em was to see Pentious
She is happy becouse Pentious is a proof she needed that souls can redeem themselfs and shows that Charlies idea works. Soul can change and get into heaven...and I love how God throws it right into Seras face xD
@@Zibi21 Part of why I love it
That squeak is a mood
18:49 I think he was just saying he was altruistic, which means a person who helps others despite not gaining anything by doing it
He was describing what the people would say if he chose to stay and fight.
The little smile adam gave lute when he saw her in his last moments was kinda sad ngl
It’s such a sudden little smile right before he dies. It seems like he genuinely cared about Lute
Screw him, he did it to himself for beign such a d...k, God did not save Adam couse he was a selfsh sinner after all. Like he was ok untill he yelled that they should worship him like a god...I guess he lost Gods gift and protection at this point. Also I love how God rubs it into Seras face with Pentious spawning right in that private room and not in front of the gate.
@@MikeyVenture Well we saw even in heaven on his time off, just around town, he was spending all his time with her.
My guess is he’s glad someone actually cared for him when he died.
@@MikeyVenture i wonder where Adam will go after his death.
Well Charlie can throw that “80% sure she’s harmless” idea about Niffty right out the window
Adam was just unlucky enough to fall into that 20%
I still think she's 80% harmless, this episode just gave us the full 20% 😂😂
She did ask Nifty to stab Angels.
I think the new phrase is gonna be: "We are 100% sure that 80% of the time she is harmless... the other 20% though ? Watch your back..."
They should’ve had a call back.
Lucifer: That little freak show of yours is quite the killer huh?
Charlie: Well we’re about 20 percent sure she’s harmless!
CherriBomb called Sir Pentious "hot"
So he was hot enough for heaven 😅
Lol, that's perfect!
Hearing Alastor`s regular voice was so unexpected, also love that Charlie and Lucifer were in demon mode against Adam. I`m guessing the reason why Lilith has been living in Heaven for seven years is because she probably couldn`t stead living in Hell.
Altruist isn't his last name. He was singing like it was an epitaph. What almost was because he tried to help. The lyrics are "Great Alastor, altruist, died for his friends," Sorry to disappoint, that is not where this ends.
Altruist meaning someone who doesn't see the point in helping others so that it "comes back your way"
@@lakicoza No an altruist means the exact opposite of what you just said. Altruism is selflessly helping others with no desire for personal gain. It's being good for goodness sake. If you look at Alastors eyes he's saying it with disgust and irony. Meaning he hates the thought that he almost died in a way that looked like he was selflessly helping his friends.
@@sardonicus1739 oh, I'm dumb sorry.

@@haileymullican335 and not just knives also guns.
Sir Pentious has to be my favorite character out of all of them, so I’m happily surprised that he made it to Heaven like he deserved!
That war was absolutely crazy. Especially when Charlie started using her true powers and Lucifer showed up. I'm proud of Sir Pentious. His sacrifice will never be forgotten. And he proved Charlie right, that a soul CAN be redeemed into Heaven.
That was honestly the only part that felt shoddily written. Why wasn't he there at the start? It would've been better if Lucifer was trapped by heaven and Charlie defeated Adam by herself, she clearly has the power to do it. Once the head honcho showed up the stakes instantly disappeared.
@@anitaremenarova6662 He wasn't there from the start because he originally wasn't worthy. But he worked on himself and died to try and protect his friends, and all that got him into heaven
Part of me thinks Charlie was still holding back. She stopped Adam's punch in a way she didn't previously so, maybe there's more to her abilities we haven't seen yet?
@@randypants0072 I'm talking about Lucifer here. You always have to be careful when writing overpowered characters because you'll need to justify why there weren't there during an important conflict other than plot convenience.
@@anitaremenarova6662To be fair, it was already established that Lucifer had a very "hands-off" approach about ruling hell. The dude was more busy with making rubber ducks than getting involved with his kingdom's ruling or his daughter's life, and he only patched things up with Charlie VERY recently. Considering that Charlie only told a select amount of people about her upcoming battle with the angels, Lucifer probably didn't hear about it until he happened to look out a window and saw the heavenly portal floating over the hotel.
I love how throughout this episode Alastors shadow is becoming more and more twisted than it was before
This is why I'm becoming more and more convinced that he made his deal with someone connected to the dark entity that was briefly referenced in the intro of ep 1. Not only has his shadow become increasingly more monstrous in form, the fact that he possesses shadow based abilities and powers is incredibly similar to the Disney villain, Dr, Facilier, and BOTH characters are practitioners of voodoo. I have a strong feeling Alastor is in a similar situation that Dr Facilier was in over his deal with his "Friends on the other side". Alastor is desperate to get out of this deal and another thing I noticed is that, he is the only Sinner so far who has a specific power set and type (shadows and darkness). He also never uses it wrecklessly either, unless he needs to. I'm almost certain he was granted this power in his deal, or at least, what power he had was heavily amplified, due to the finale making it clear that his Mic staff is a primary source for his shadow magic. Whether it be this mystery character Roo, the dark entity referenced in ep 1 intro or someone else tied to that darkness, I'm sittin on my theory for now that Alastor is contracted to this Darkness and he wants out badly. But, we shall see, I'm probably wrong xD.
When Alastor called himself, 'Alastor Altruist'. That wans't his last name, the deffinition for altruist is "showing a disinterested and selfless concern for the well-being of others; unselfish". My current theory being that Alastor is on someone's leash, forcing him to stay at the hotel, but he's actually grown accustomed and attached to the members.
Subtitles fucked me up. Simple mistake. I promise I’m not dumb 😂
@@MikeyVenture Okayokay! Just making sure lol :)
Don't worry they're messing with a bunch of people 😭 @@MikeyVenture
@@lucid_3938 IM NOT TRYING TO, I SWEAR :(
@@StarpulseSJ huh? I mean the subtitles 😭 not you
Fun fact: We had 2 kisses this episode! Vox and Valentino had a kiss scene during the very end of the song. I have a feeling they will be a large part in Season 2.
Doesn't that make 3 kisses?
Charlie and Vaggie
Pentious and Cherri
Vox and Valentino
The way I was screaming and all hyped up throughout the episode 😂 Especially at the end there. Like, what????? Also. Alastor is still a big freaking mystery but I think we can definitely see him growing attached to our crew and actually caring about them genuinely.
especially with carmillas song abt how fighting for love makes you more powerful, i think its possible he could become powerful as fuck if he started actually fighting for charlie - im a bit doubtful he'll turn out good but im holding onto hope lol
His little talk with Nifty definitely makes it sound like he's become at least somewhat attached to the hotel, or even just to Charlie.
@@corvieus Yeah, I'd honestly be more surprised if he turns to be good rather than becoming a villain or an antagonist
@@quartzninja Oh, yeah. At the same time, he's also very difficult to read. I can never understand what goes through that mind of his 😂
@@alastor3609I don’t think he’ll ever be fully “good” but MAN am I hoping for antihero and not complete villain, I don’t want him to have a bad ending ;-;
On some level you kinda feel bad for Lute and Adam. The fact that she cried over him and Adam’s last action before dying was smiling at her face (almost as if he’s happy there was at least one person who actually cared about him, given his obvious complex). It’s kind of like Kingpin in “Daredevil/Echo”. They’re monsters but are still capable of love. It actually does make them more evil in a way, that they can be kind and good, but CHOOSE not to be
I been saying this about Adam. I know a lot of the fanbase hate him and write him off as a chauvinistic, self-centered prick (which is very true), but I found myself feeling sorry for him when he was ranting, completely unmasked, beatup and ragged and he sounded confused, scared and desperate. It almost sounded as if his worldview and what he believed was cracked and he was grasping so hard to cling to it. In a way he honestly did believe what he was doing and what he knew, was right and it seems a bit tragic. Some part ofme kinda wishes that he might come back as a Sinner and maybe try to attempt redemption the proper way, but it probably won't happen. I'm not excusing his actions, oh no, but it just seems a bit more tragic to me that he clung so deeply to what he knew, especially after that tragically serene smile he gave before he died. But these are just my ponderings xD.
@@DarklightNamari He was given Mercy by sinners and that must sting a lot, mercy something he never gave to anyone as he was murdering then and laughing. He mostly lost Gods protection when he yelled that they should worship him as god, Adam was seen as a sinner.
@@Zibi21 God as a character doesn't exist in the show, it was the angels themselves who made the universe and mankind. I get what you mean but I disagree on the statement.
@@DarklightNamariBut then again if God doesn't exist in this universe what "God" as a word on itself would mean? If there's no God, then there shouldn't be the word "God" too.
@@DarklightNamari Right? It's the "Don't cry, it's alright" smile that made me think that about him.
He's up there with Kingpin, Darth Maul, & Ultron as pure evil villains that, while not so much being sympathetic, manage to be very humanized
Seeing Sir Pentious being reborn as an angel warmed my heart! Very amazing season finale!
Between his little bit with Rosie last episode and his speech at the radio tower here, I think it's looking a lot like Alastor might end up being the ultimate villain of the show.
I dont think so. I think hes the ultimate redemption.
@@Virginny Again, judging by what I've seen so far, I'm not sure... but giving him the ultimate redemption *would* be in line with the main themes we've seen in the first season. We'll just have to wait and see!
@@thomasmuscat6527 Yeah i'm really excited to see what they take his character either way.
Lilith owning Alastor’s soul made so much sense when we were looking at it from the perspective of a mother who wanted her daughter’s dream to have extra protection. Now we know she’s just a jerk who constantly tore Charlie from Lucifer during childhood, and ultimately abandoned her family.
People have started to theorize that Eve might have Alastor’s soul. I’ve been wondering where she was this entire time, because we haven’t seen her in Heaven or Hell. Why Eve could want Alastor’s soul is murky to me. All my mind keeps going back to is ep 5 when Alastor said “It’s time I remind everyone why I’m here.” He earlier claimed it was to watch people fail, but he proceeded to protect the hotel. Either he was acting of his own desire to defend them, or it’s in the deal… I don’t know. There are so many theories buzzing through my mind.
Why do I get the vibe that Alastor is disgusted that he nearly died for others?
Hence why he wants freedom after that experience but he's deal won't allow it and he is searching for a way out.
His deal has to have something to do with him being stuck to the Hotel.
Lo mas probable es que tuvo que pelear por obligación de que charlie aun confie en el, no por que su trato lo obligue
So it's a strange thing to consider when you stack facts:
1. Alastor doesn't ever seem to underestimate others, and is confident in his power but is aware it has a cap.
2. Alastor knew that only angelic weapons can kill Heavenly or Hellish souls, yet he didn't wield one against Adam, and was so confident he outright stated he was going to end his life.
3. His deal indicates not only servitude, but also a restraint on his power; hence, why he was so confused as to why Adam was able to nearly kill him. As he sings, "unclip my wings", meaning his "wings were clipped", i.e. freedom taken away and ability to do what is natural taken away.
So my determination is that whatever the case may be, he is frightened by his power being limited, and therefore, making him more vulnerable than he likes.
Crazy theory time: I think that Alastor wants, above all else, as an end goal, to be the ruler of Hell. In life, he was a serial killer kinda along the lines of Dexter, which indicates that he wants people to get what they deserve. He THRIVES on the suffering of those who deserve it, who cannot better themselves. What better job than to be the one who torments the deservedly damned for all time? To achieve this, he needs to have the throne. How to have the throne? Marry Charlie. Not for romance or anything, just so that he could be heir to the throne, and take said throne when passed to him. This also would explain in part why he has something against Lucifer; he's not really a great ruler for Hell. To Alastor, this could even be seen as insulting and offensive when the throne should rightfully be his, as he's of the opinion he's the best for the job. Remember the pilot, what he enjoys most is to see people, essentially, suffer in hell with no way out who fail to better themselves. He may have initially believed that those who are in Hell deserve it, but he has not once actually sabotaged anyone's attempts at it. Never tried to trick or mess with Angel, nor did he ever try to ruin anything for Pentius, and he EASILY could have. And that might be where things get tricky; how the hell is Charlie heir to the throne when they are, essentially, immortal beings in the afterlife that cannot die by natural causes? Welp. That means Lucifer's death, by his hands or machinations. So... Yeah. Crazy theory I've developed, but I think it fits what we know and have seen.
Edit: regarding his deal with Charlie? I think all it's going to be is "Marry me." of which, he isn't asking her to harm anyone, but Alastor knows that she loves Vaggie, and would probably argue that he DID make her harm someone with the favor, to which he could then allow her to then separate and divorce the marriage, wherein he keeps the throne, and she can marry Vaggie. That's under the supposition that Charlie and Vaggie want to get married or if that is even important to them as an act. Buuuuut given that she's a Disney Princess of Hell, it probably is, lol.
@@magustobias8827 Honestly I had a similar thought.
Something happenes to Lucifer that forces Charlie to take the throne of Hell. (dies, goes away , retires to build a duck caste ... doesnt matter )
Alastor comes in to the new Queen of Hell for that "favor without harming anyone".
A.k.a "Abandon your throne and let me have it."
Thus making Alastor the new ruler and maybe this way he can escape his chain.
@@magustobias8827 Alastor might be cocky with his power , but he is calculated and in it for the long game.
He waited months for Charlie to be at her lowest emotionally to strike that deal with her in exchange for that intel he had for months.
Sir Pentious was a maniacal inventor in life. He died a villain. But died HERE a hero.
And yeah, Lucifer is a secret Keyblade Warrior.
There was so much in this episode. Lucifer’s fight was hilarious and awesome. During Alastor’s skirmish, it was so cool to see his burst of power, and his *final song* . OmL. Short but great. You can see the insanity and desperation in his eyes.
Also, I love they chose Niffty to taken Adam down. She finally got to put her stabbing tendencies to the ultimate test. I just hope Pentious’ eggs join him up there. His anti-climactic death is the only thing I think could’ve been better. At least let him get *one shot* in.
26:08 Pretty sure he went to the hotel radio tower
Once you watched this show once, our best way of re-watching it for the first time is to watch good reaction videos. Wanted to say I watched many and enjoyed yours the most :)
there's an art to series reaction videos and I think you nailed it in the best way possible, I re-lived the fun of this show through your reaction thank you for that!
Oh my goodness thank you so much! It’s very appreciated, and I’m glad you found a lot of enjoyment in my Hazbin Hotel reactions. It was a ton of fun to watch
Funny joke theory but what if Lilith ran off with Eve 💀💀
Oooooh now that would be a twist
What if Alastor stops the overlords being reborn by keeping them (and their power) inside his head or inside him. Their souls are part of him, that is why he can broadcast their screams, becaue they are inside him. But in so doing he is living with the voices and agony of his fallen enemies constantly. He cannot release them because they would be reborn, but keeping them inside him is driving him mad, for 7 years he hid away, slowly having his mind broken by the constant wails and screams of those whose powers he has absorbed, the souls he has taken, before he could not take it anymore - so he made a deal with someone out of desperation, in my opinion one of the sins - this deal silenced the voices, but also held back their power, an unforseen consequence or perhaps a badly worded deal. He cannot get his true power back without the insanity returning, this has left him stuck in limbo while also being in service to another.
But now a different kind of insanity is starting to take it's toll - being controlled by someone else. Now he is the prisoner. he is with Charlie because he sees it as the best way to unshackle himself - not because he has been ordered to be there.
Nice theory but it doesn't make any sense, he already had all the power pretty much instantly after he got into hell which means he made a deal for it BEFORE he started kidnapping overlords. He also quote "tears your soul apart" to get the screams for his radio broadcast which would destroy it in the process. He made a deal with a more ancient evil than the sins to have the power to erase souls.
@@anitaremenarova6662 That could be down to the fact he practices voodoo while he was alive and already had a handle on his demonic soul - an advantage not many others have.
tearing a soul apart doesn't mean it's gone forever. Sinners are just reborn. What if he could trap them in an endless cycle of being reborn into him, using his own power to tear them apart over and over.
It is also possible he was simply lying to husk, using his reputation as a weapon to get him to shut up.
@@Whoami691 Could be but that seems like a copout answer, he wouldn't be the first sinner in history to practice voodoo, far from it.
Sinners reform when their bodies are destroyed, not their souls. If that were the case all the overlords Alastor erased would be plotting his downfall with Vox rn.
The one thing i know that's going yo happen in S2, it would mainly go about a character who was fun to write in S1, and they admitted that Adam was fun to write. So my theory is that, he will be back as a sinner
Not hard to predict, the show that's all about redemption wouldn't make any sense if he didn't get the chance just for being a racist asshole. Alastor will be the real irredeemable evil by the end of the series.
Sinner Adam would certainly have an affect on Lute. And Angel(potentially even Seraph) Ser Pentius is gonna have heaven questioning a lot about their decisions.
Yeah that would be interesting but Adam was killed by an angelic dagger. So it’s possible his souls just got destroyed. Unable to go to heaven or hell
@@kay-jay1581 If this turns out to be true, it will be untapped potential

@@MikeyVentureyeah apparently the official lyrics have a comma and _don't_ capitalize Altruist
I like how you laughed at all the parts I laughed at. Hazbin Hotel has been quite a ride. I'm normally not a fan of the overdone cursing and sex jokes but somehow it works (perhaps cuase it makes sense in hell) regardless, I found the season enjoyable. Alastor's New VA grew on me and his last chorus in this episode really strikes home. This is the one time we see him going crazy and actually kinda losing it. Other then that, i do wish we had more of the V's but what we got we great. Overall, i enjoyed it
"Why`s everyone such an amazing singer on this show?" `Cause they all started out on Broadway, that`s why!
Hmm 🤔
Today... a hero has fallen. Nothing less then a knight. A shiny one.! Someone who believed in an ideal. But more than that, in his friends.🐍♥
Imagine in the second season Charlie having another meeting with Sera and Emily, and Em is like "Someone wants to see you again." only for Charlie to meet up with Sir Pentius and realize that everything they're doing at the hotel works. That would only help her to double her efforts in rehabilitation of everyone she can.
First she needs to understand the rules, what gets you in heaven in the first place. I guess this will be something Charlie and Em will be working on...and Lilith will mostly try and talk doubts into her to make her stop.
I didnt notice how alastor lost the radio effect in his voice when his microphone or whatever broke
It was so shocking!
Yesss my girl did the FINISHING BLOW!!!
I’m so proud of her!
When you said 80s metal singer, I would have LOVED for Ronnie James Dio to voice Adam. Just...MY GOD-
A shame the great Dio is gone. =(
Alastor having a full mental crisis was something i was hiping for and i got my wish 😂
(Fingers crossed it leads to more character diving)
*Rest in Peace Dazzle*
RIP :(
Lucifer mostly created them so why not revive him. It would be funny if Dazzle respawns in heaven too xD
13:12 you zoomed in so you can't rely see it, but. the snake and apple on Lucifer's hat become his halo when he goes full demon form.
My highlights of this episode, not counting the fight scenes, were Vox’s “ho-ly sh*t” (it was easily his quietest line of the episode he was so stunned but it made me laugh hardest) and Emily’s reaction to Pentious arriving in Heaven, just that whole scene from his confusion to Emily’s “oh dear God, _yes!”_ face and Sera’s “oh dear God, _no!”_ face … this was just a Chef’s Kiss moment for me. And you posting your reaction today is a great start to my Cake Day 😄😄😄
Thanks for the reaction Mikey and hug your furbabies all 🎁🎂💙🐱💙🎂🎁
Is no one gonna talk abt how good Alastor’s actual voice sounds like
Now all we need.is an instance him briefly dropping the transatlantic accent and having a Cajun one
The word altruist just made me think about the altruist cult in GTA V, who are also cannibals just like Alastor :D
I keep laughing at all the folks who, like, forget that _altruist is a word._ I _really_ don't think that was a name reveal.
Cause it'd be like if he was Alastor Garbage Disposal or something. Ain't nobody named that.
See what threw me off was that it’s capitalized in the subtitles, so I took it as a name. Whatever. It’s getting people to comment 😂
The freaking wiki people are among those folks and it is amusing
GOODBYE FRIEND 😭🐍
RIP 😢
If Alastor did make a deal with Lilith it explains why he had so much freedom within hell. If it is true seeing her come back to Hell may be very interesting and we may see Alastor drop his smile
I’m calling it now, it’s Eve. Alastor made a deal with Eve.
Alastor's first man next to die quote gave me chills
Getting stabbed by Niffty has to be the most humiliating way for Adam to die.
best moment in all of hazbin hotel season imo.
The leading thoery regarding Lucifer's involvement or lack thereof & the original deal with the extermination, was that Luci agreed not to interfere with the exterminators as long as they stuck to Sinners only, & didnt kill Hellborn. When Charlie's life came under threat, the deal broke, & all bets were off, which might explain why he only showed up at the last minute, despite being the strongest one there!
That battle was better than any of the last 3 seasons of Game of Thrones!
I wonder how Pentious will do in heaven and if we will see him in season 2
Also,with Niffty I love her moments in this episode especially killing Adam,Rosie with her cannibals,Vaggie versus Lute was epic and I’m curious why she spared Lute instead of killing her permanently.
Here's what I've been thinking for a few episodes now, and what I thought might actually hold some ground during episode 7. I don't know if anyone else proposed this, I'm assuming someone must have but I haven't really followed theories.
But Alastor brought up his deal explicitly this episode and while there's no way to know the full details of his contract, one thing I'm becoming more and more suspicious of is this: What is his deal forbids him from making any more deals for souls? *Specifically* souls.
We've seen he can still make deals, but he laughed off the idea of making the deals for their souls each time, and even brushed off Rosie's offer when it would have been easy pickings. That last one especially was interesting, when it would have been an easy detour for him. And then saying how once he's free of his chains, he can start pulling all the strings. What if he's not taking any more souls, because he CAN'T anymore?
Call back Joke to the first episode of Helluva Boss aka missed joke here..
Lucifer: "You messed with my daughter and now i am going to f*ck you!!"
Awkward silence
Charlie: "It is called I f*ck you up, dad"
Lucifer: "Mine's better"
I like to think that when razzle/dazzle (i can't remember which one died) died Lucifer sensed it, since he's the one who gave them life and started heading toward charlie
I don't understand why Charlie didn't call her dad and explain the whole, some one is coming to murder her thing. Even more so in Episode 1, we were told she had a pardon from the exorcists as part of a deal Lucifer made. So Adam was breaking a contract, also going to murder Charlie, and what not. It feels like a, he should really have been informed of the situation.
A simple line like, "oh shit was that today?" or something like that could have been the lantern so it didn't feel like a bit of a plothole.
@@TheJadeFistI like to think that he knew it was happening, he told Adam if he forgot he's in his house, so I think Lucifer should've been partially aware that this entire fight was going on but couldn't butt in until Adam went after Charlie. Other thing is also that maybe Charlie told him about it, or he just showed up randomly because we haven't seen where he lives so he could've just seen the portal open above the hotel.
Bro Sir Pentious really displayed the "stick it to the man" requirement and he fucking owned it. He charged at his demise and straight up died to save those he loved. Also, Charlie's transformation moment is literally Gohan going SSJ2
I was thinking about that well after I finished the video. He really checked off everything on that list, and I’m annoyed I didn’t connect it
Something I saw pointed out that may or may not have been intended, but is really cool, is that Lucifier only showed up after one of her "pet sacrificial lambs" died.
I’m fully convinced that Brandon Rogers was involved in the writing for specifically Adam cause that dialogue is too perfect
Good news!!! Ghe cast confirmed season 2 is finished and in post production. Coming up in 2025!!! 😃🥳
"Altruist" isn't Alastor's last name; it was capitalized in the subtitles because he was using the word as a title (and thus a proper noun) in a hypothetical headline describing the way it looks like he died altruisticly, protecting others. Alastor the Altruist.
👍
something that I think people don't seem to connect is the fact in hells hierarchy of power Lilith is on the same level as Charlie, just under lucifer.
If Lilith is that powerful, and Adam is made the same as her, its logical to assume Adam and Lilith are on the same or similar power levels.
Yet everyone seems shocked Adam nearly killed Alastor...
If Niffty had happened to be nearby when Lute was pinned, we could have just completely skipped what I'm going to assume will be the entire plot of season 2.
So many things to say so only one word
AWESOME !!!❤
Very excited to see season 2
I love that all my theories were proven
The reason in the diegesis why they didn't kill Adam and the other angel is because the purpose of the hotel is to rehabilitate the demons. And when a demon proves himself better than an angel, what does that mean for the angel? For the demon? Lucifer didn't kill Adam because Charlie asked him not to. Vaggie didn't kill the other one (yeah, her name really doesn't stick in my memory) not only because it means that the angel will have to live her whole life knowing that she's a failure only being alive because that the one she despised deemed her too insignificant to be killed, but also because she believes in Charlie and that unlike Paradise, she intends to act in accordance with her words.
Charlie is sooooo cool as a demonic princess.
Lucifer is really adorable and in his full Demon's King form, absolutly gorgeous. Every time he is on screen I am happy. And oh my devil I got my money's worth. What did he do with Eve?! Is it just the apple or did she get fed up with Adam and went to have a threesome with Lucifer and Lilith?! If it's the latter option, who could blame her?
My god Alastor! We love you but we fear you. Da fuck was that?!
A theory I came up with is like this. For a demon to be redeemed it would take three things:
1) That he dies in hell so he can be re-tried
2) That his soul is “clean” whatever that means
3) That his soul is free, that is to say that he has not sold his soul to another demon.
I wonder what the deal is with Lilith. We'll see that in season 2.
The more I think on the episode, the more questions I’m left with. I’m glad they are carrying over the Alastor stuff. Him suffering a defeat is a big deal, so I’m curious what his next move will be. And yeah Lucifer was absolutely amazing in this episode. I’m glad they showcased his power
@@MikeyVenture This allows you to put his power into perspective. Alastor is powerful enough to fight against Adam whose raw power is just crazy, but he remains vastly outclassed. Unless he was just pretending but I don't think that's the case and I wish I was right. Charlie on the other hand does better (and I don't think she has the experience of Alastor) and Lucifer totally crushes Adam. His transformations were just magical, he was watching the duel between Merlin and Madame Mim just before and that's why he was late.
I wonder the psychological weight felt by the demons who sold their souls. Because of course, Alastor has always been crazy, but during the song it was particularly blatant.
What a season finale. ^^
Am really interested by that unclip wings statement. Oo.
Honestly, getting F'ed by Lucifer is probably worst than getting F'ed up by Lucifer.
I really feel like Niffty and Millie would be instant best friends if they met 😂😂
Adam's death was freaking satisfying. Like none of this wouldn't happen if he all he could've done was just accepting charlie's idea. Charlie tried so hard to do this peacefully since episode one, but adam just kept going with his bullshit talk about being superior and always insulting and belittling charlie as much as he wanted. Now karma got him hard, and man it was awesome. Thank you, Nifty! 😂
Also! Emily's face when she saw sir pentious in his angel form was freaking cute!! Goes to show that charlie's idea really works 😊
Alastor owns Niffty’s soul, too. They just have a much better relationship than Al does with Husk.
No I do know he owns her soul, but I was wondering if she was also an overlord, since those seem to be the souls he likes to acquire
They have a better relationship because in her own words Nifty likes to be forced.
Valentino must be glad that he was not stabbed by lil missy in that bar. Now he must watch his back too after he saw her madness, hurt Angel and that lil asasin will gets ya.
@@Zibi21 It wouldn't have killed him, she didn't have a holy weapon yet.
Imagine if Charlie knew her full power and had battle experience.
Imagine if they just had holy flak cannons, that battle would have ended really fast.
Dazzle was the one that died so I hope we see how his death effects Razzle in season 2
21:30 It could still be Lilith, he was theorized to be in Holy arms and got shifty
“Arms”meant weapons. The line “falling to holy arms” meant being killed by angelic weaponry
@@hyponiax I know but it made me think of falling INTO holy arms
13:56 I laughed pretty hard when someone said Val was having a crisis because THAT was on him (and ripped out some of his fur) a couple episodes ago.
Same as the last video, I forgot to comment on these two so i will say now what I would have then. I can’t wait for the show to go on in season 2 and keep redeeming people or give us new villains. Great wrap up to a first season. Great video loved the reaction. It’s january 27th this is part 11/11 for now.
Another thing I can't stop thinking about is how Adam and Lute took Vaggie's halo when she fell, and Lute took Adams halo when he died, as if its significant like the halo is more important to take than the weapons. Which got me thinking about the beheaded angel. Adam and Lute found the body and the V's found the head, but it wasn't with the head when she presented it to the overlords. Do they have the halo and is that significant??
What's nice is you can actually hear husks in the final song, cuz normally you can't hear a lot of deep voices unless there's at least three or more, but the husk is the only one that has a really deep voice and you can actually hear him. I was in choir and when the boys sang unless there was more than three you couldn't really hear the deep notes when we all sang together, there were a few of their voices that did poked through but it was still kind of hard to hear them. Husk is the only really deep voice and you can actually hear him poking through the song
1. Alastor didnt go back to his old radio tower the one he goes back to in the song is the one we see haning off the side of the hotel in a earlier episode also i belive what shook alastor so much is the fact that this is his first true loss cause if you remeber back when penstiouse came to the hotel and handed back the scrap of alastors coat alastor mentiond no one had manedge to get even that much off of him it shows in all the fights alastor has been in he has always come out on top but to struck down by adam made him realize he isent that strong after all and it could be those restraints his deal holds that is limiting his power keeping him in check
a really interesting point that adds onto the theory that vox and alastor use to be close friends is in the last song when vox sings 'overlords hanging by a thread' it shows a picture of alastor in which part of the picture was torn off and you can just about see vox in it
Lute is actually unhinged
My fav character!
Would be fun if her arc in upcoming seasons was learning to accept Adam newly reincarnated into a sinner demon. It'll probably just be a boring revenge plot though.
That is what Id want too.
When Charlie and others have celebrating Alastor have mental breakdown 😢
Can't wait for an episode where alastor stops smiling it's back to the lobby for everyone
The day Alastor stops smiling is the day we all know we’re fucked 😂
Fr Alastor is strong but adam is the leader of The Exterminators for a reason Now that he is gone alastor hasless to worry about@@MikeyVenture
Nifty really had the properly executed Arya Stark moment lol.
Alastor was having a mental breakdown..I wannted to hug him so bad.
Even Adam was like _Chill Lute, fuck_
I don't think Altruist is Alastors last name. It is the word for a human who always puts others first, a truly good being. That sort of stuff. He was spinning the tale about how he safed his friends there and stated that's not what he wants.
I just have to say I think you’re so good at this, reacting thing. I truly enjoy your commentary. The people who give you shit don’t know how making yt videos works haha. New sub, and rooting for you to keep succeeding 👍🏽 you should be proud of yourself.
Sera is like WTF and Emmy looks like she won the happy lottery.
His Implication about Eve is because he convinced her to eat the Apple from the tree of knowledge even though Adam told her never to.
A random thing that struck me immediately when they showed Lilith is that Charlie has the same nose as her. Makes sense, given it's her biological daughter, except the woman in the family portraits does not have that nose. Plus, Lilith's eyes were covered by sunglasses so we can't compare those either. Then there's the fact that we don't see "Lilith's" face in the flashback, which now seems purposeful rather than an artistic choice for that scene. Finally, Lucifer made reference to Eve when shit talking Adam, which was played as a joke but could actually important. Given all these little tidbits of information, when I was rewatching earlier episodes it hit me that the woman being referred to as Charlie's mom was never once stated to be Lilith. We've been connecting obvious dots to come to logical conclusions, but what if it was a red herring? What if the woman that Charlie refers to as mom, that raised her before splitting from Lucifer, and that's been missing for seven years is actually Eve? Just my two cents. In any case, I feel like Eve is going to come into play in some way that most people aren't expecting.
One thing i find a lot of ppl FORGET is that Loot mentions in episode 1 that the only reason why Charlie is never harmed during an extermination is because all hell-born, like Charlie, have a pardon. It's part of the deal.
I feel like it'll be addressed that Adam violated that by trying to hurt Charlie. Loot mentioned that bcuz Adam is dead the deal with Lilith is done, I'm assuming because Adam was apart of it, along with Sera, Lilith has to leave heaven and deal with hell again because Charlie is no longer off limits.
As far as Alastor and what we know thus far, he's a human sinner, and Angels by default tend to be stronger than human sinners
^It's a bit different with Lucifer since he's an Angel, and hell-born like Charlie who's his daughter
yeah, he was hoping he could outskill Adam since Adam's apparently 'sloppy', like someone trying to do a no-damage run in a video game.
@@lawrencelopez9839 Ya then you miss one dodge roll, and the boss 1 shots you.
I LOVE that Niffty was the one to take Adam down: after all his bragging about how great he was, he was killed by, as Katie puts it, "a filthy janitor", a nobody with no real power besides a knife and a desire to use it! Just goes to show that he wasn't as great as he thought!
Not Lucy being a dad while fighting Adam 😂😂😂😂😂😂
LUCIFER SMASH HIS HEAD TILL HIS BRAINS DONT EXIST
