Keep in mind for the next episodes that Stolas is a hopeless romantic with no real relationship experience. And Blitz has a lot of trauma... Communication is key here. Just wanted to throw that out there for context. Also, would love it if you reacted to the shorts!
btw fun fact. This song was a fan-made track from a couple years ago that was liked by Vivian so much it was modified to fit into the story and canon as an official song. And now, it got a music video. :)
I don’t think Stolas is really that much aware of Blitzo’s traumas and past. What he knows is that he put Blitzo in an forceful transactional relationship and that was wrong. He realized that Blitzo gave all the signs he wasn’t interested and that he (Stolas) was basically keeping him in a cage, and that in that situation is obvious that Blitzo could never trust him. Those are the “walls” Stolas was singing about, I believe. Because, aside from being from a Circus, Stolas doesn’t really know much about Blitzo’s life. He doesn’t have any idea about how terrible his father was, the accident, the dead mother, the broken relationship with his sister, nothing, nada. He only knows that Blitzo’s dated Verosika and she hates him. And that Fizz used to hate him too. But that’s it. Keep that in mind, when watching Full Moon! Because the LEVEL of communication these two need are way higher than we thought. Stolas doesn’t know anything about Blitzo’s traumas and Blitzo doesn’t know anything about Stola’s traumas (forced marriage, abusive wife, absent father, etc).
11:19 (spoiler-free) One thing to keep in mind is that while both characters have good intentions (in their own very different ways) Blitz and Stolas are *both* very fallible and have constructed fictional versions of the other in their minds. We've seen this with Blitz in S2E6 (Oops) when he completely misdiagnoses Stolas attention, because Blitz is very focused on the transactional aspect that effectively renders him a prostitute in the relationship - doing sex with Stolas is work and whatever unfortunate feelings he may or may not have developed for his client just has to be repressed and put aside. Building up Stolas in his mind as a rich prick that only sees imps as sex toys makes it easier to stomp out unwanted emotions. Stolas has his own delusions, and he doesn't have any real non-transactional relationship experience outside of romantic fiction. He has sussed out that Blitz has some kind of baggage, but he's kinda framing it in this scene as if Blitz is a Troubled Bad Boy (TM), the kind of romantic interest that would turn into a gentle romantic partner if the main character just loved him hard enough. In reality, Stolas doesn't actually know Blitz any more than Blitz knows Stolas. "Scorned by a world that cannot comprehend what you are" isn't anywhere near the top of Blitz' list of real problems (self loathing, anger issues, survivor's guilt, and ptsd on the other hand...) but "the world hates my misunderstood troubled bean" would be the diagnosis for a character that behaves like Blitz in your bog standard bodice ripper novel, and that's the only sources that Stolas really have available to work with. I could write another three paragraphs easily, but that would venture into spoiler territory so I better save that for the next video.
1:38 Asmodean Crystal, correct So, fun fact, this song was fan made by someone named Paranoid DJ but Vivzie liked it so much she officially canonized it. As for Bryce? He ate and left no crumbs 5:33 And that is why the next two episodes will destroy you I would tell you to prepare yourself for the next two episodes but let's face it here folks, there is no preparation. The episodes will destroy you, like they have most of us.
I love hearing your take on them. Cus the fandom has quite strong opinions about these two and some of them are... well.. spiteful. Some, wrongfully, think that the story is trying to make Blitz out to be the bad guy.. simply because we see Stolas go through it and be very emotional about the situation.. but.. that's just the way he expresses himself and part of what drives his actions. I personally think this show is excellent in pointing out where things went wrong WITHOUT making just one of them the one in the wrong. Both come from a past that molded them into who they are as people. As far as trauma goes (they both have quite a bit of it) they both respond to it differently.. Blitz is aggressive, Stolas avoidant. Blitz has been abandoned, Stolas has always been alone.. they both seek deep connections but they are both afraid of pursuing it. So.. they keep their relationship shallow. Which in turn leads to them not actually knowing each other all that well.. even if they do feel connected. So y'know.. if you care to look into it.. all the information is there as to why things are going the way they are. And it's from both sides. I just.. I love seeing how thought out their whole relationship is.. and their past experiences and their personalities plays such a huge part in both their conflicts and why they actually have a connection to begin with.. it's great. It's awesome seeing a couple treated with this much respect in fiction
I would like to keep this comment in my back pocket for the Apology Tour reaction - I feel a lot of people interpreted it incorrectly and made Blitz the 'villain' like you mentioned.
@@Tey_TXthe comment is neutral, but the fandom lets one of them play the innocent perfect victim toooo much. I dont think i need to even mention who it is...
One thing I'm sad you didn't notice is how in the queen bee episode, when they were at blitzø house. On all of the pictures he has, his face was crossed out which shows his hatred so much for himself
The part that gets me every time is the line "Unless it's me..." and his tear turns into a shooting star. If you remember earlier in season 2, Via left to go chase Azathoth's Tears; the last gasping cries of something that would never be, seen as a meteor shower. The visual storytelling in this show is *cheff's kiss*
I played this video on repeat for WEEKS after it came out, @Mattables. The first time I listened to it I clasped both hands over my mouth so I would not make ANY noise while watching it because I wanted to hear every delicate nuance, tiny sound effect, and Bryce's emotions coming through the headphones. The original fan-written and sung song was longer and at the time was written while Octavia was worried her dad would leave her for Blitzø (Loo Loo Land). Viv heard the song, contacted ParanoidDJ about using it with some edits that applied to the latest storyline and PDJ was also hired as the official Sound Designer for the video. I definitely caught the edits while listening since I knew the original song but this version works so well with what is going on in the storyline and it crafted so stunningly. Bryce (Stolas) recorded it nine months before actually seeing the final product and was gobsmacked by the artistry the animators put into this music video. Note: that 360 spin around Stolas while he holds the tiny moon was an animation masterpiece in of itself. I suspect you will watch this a LOT and start picking up on all the nuance the animators put into this masterpiece, and I encourage you to do so. The crystal box closing sound is subtle and on the beat, Stolas walking through the water puddle with those sound effects sending chills up your spine, the reflection in the water of the star-Blitzø touching Stolas but that is not what is happening when you pull to the real scene, the Red String of Fate binding them together - all these little moments to cherish. FYI: Viv has said Stolitz is the end-game, but the fans know these two goofbballs need to get their shits together and have some honest reality checks with each other. Also, note how the moon started off small and accessible in Stolas' hands, and ended being so large and just far enough away Stolas could not even get close enough to touch it anymore. And did not that water toward the end rock your socks off? Whoa! Yes, I have analyzed this video a LOT.
@@MattablesBlitz wants to love someone, but he doesn't know how. Which is connected thaton his head with #Symbol of Heartlessness and in series have others characters fate with this symbol have changed. For example, Verosika loved him, but Blitzo broke her heart. [She has a tattoo of the name Blitzo crossed out on her arm.] #Blitzo is Pansexual Plus, being younger, he has some kind of love interest in Fizz. #S02 E06 Flashback Circus Fizzy has a birthday
7:03 funny you should ask that... This was originally a fansong from ParanoidDJ, to octavia. Vivzie loved the song so much, she worked with him to make this version and made in canon to the series, much as she did with Addict for Hazbin Hotel.
I would like to apologize in advance for the next two episodes. I barely survived Full Moon. It's some real deep in your soul hurt coming. I'll be here when it comes. Stay strong. Crying is good for you.
Mattables, I gurantee that you are not emotionally prepared for Full Moon or Apology Tour. Bring tissues. Also, the short after this is called Hell's Belles. In the visuals of the song, the moon growing larger represents Stolas' love for Blitz growing out of his control and becoming a larger part of his life; Blitz is no longer merely a plaything for Stolas, but someone Stolas cares deeply for. And the moon growing further away from Stolas could represent Blitz pushing people away and seeking emotional isolation due to his self-hatred, trauma, and depression. He feels like he makes the lives of everyone around him worse.
So I showed my music teacher husband this song, and he pointed out that it uses an Andalusian Cadence, the same sort of stepping down minor/major chords as you see in Sultans of Swing and Stray Cat Strut, another couple favorites of mine. I had no idea the three songs could be connected in such a way!!
Mattables, there's one character in ep 9 that i think look exactly like you. Well i just thought immediately of u when i saw him. Anyway, looking forward to your reaction to ep 9 😌
For the bext episode, Full Moon there is a music video you should watch. After the episode. It's for one of the songs in that episode but has the VA's recording their lines.
I'm seeing someone already commented that you should have in mind Stolas is hopeless romantic with no real relationship experience and Blitz has a lot of trauma BUT I hope you also keep in mind this season is not yet over and the show's planned to have 4 seasons as far as I remember from the interviews I've listened. So things between the two of them might go on a wild rollercoaster but there should always be hope as Vivienne said she likes a happy end. And yes, please do all the shorts in one video - they're not to be missed.
This song is what made me watch the show. I watched this and was mind blown and went to watch everything just so I could get Stolas’s story. A beautiful piece of art
the MV showed us what was coming, some of us saw it some of us didn't The song is incredible, Bryce's voice is absolutely haunting in the best ways imaginable... UGH the beauty of this song. . Matt, I so look forward to these videos even if I'm way late getting to them. Your takes are great and even if you lose the tiny details sometimes you always have a great perspective.
Idk how i didn't realize sooner how pretty your eyes are ...so very pretty :) Also can't wait for full moon reaction, I just know that it's gonna be great. And thank you for the extra, appreciate it :}
Just keep in mind that two people can be having completely different conversations at the same time. What you believe and what you think is going to color the way you hear the other person's words
Don't apologize for your 'ranting' or whenever you get on a tangent, it's what I (and I'm sure many others) watch specifically for! I think the new quality is great, I kept getting mesmerized by the way your nails catch the light when you talk. They look so cute, btw. I wait with anticipation for Full Moon and I will have my Stolitz (Stolas/Blitz) pillow at the ready for hugging. I'd love to see you react to the shorts after the next two episodes! :)
This song is beautiful and says so much about what's in Stolas heart and mind but you have to keep in mind that Blitz hasn't heard this song. Because we see next episode in the context of this song but Blitz doesn't.
personally, the Antartica short can go before or after the Apology Tour. Hells Belles can go anything before. As I don't know that Hell's Belles has a direct link between two episodes or not
We all feel the same way, Stolas loves Blitz so genuinely and truly wants to do right by him, it's impossible not to root for him. I want them both to be happy. And this is a necessary first step! They can't have a relationship as equals with the book in the way. But this music video made me nervous, because the Blitz in this beautiful song is an imaginary one inside Stolas' head. I'm not sure Stolas remembers that the real Blitz hasn't been on this journey of romantic self-reflection with him. The real Blitz hasn't talked to Stolas in months. (And may not ever have shared his feelings honestly, beyond that painful exchange after Ozzie's.)
I love Paranoid Dj so much and I was so happy when Paranoid and Vivzie came together to release this video, so happy to see your reaction to it. Love your reactions, can’t wait to see more!
He called us a good little fanbase... 😊 I know I have such a praise kink 🫣

Hey after catching up there is one fan animation I really recommend, It’s called “Foolish To Think - A Helluva Boss Animatic” The artist made this animation with a song Stolas’s voice actor has sung for one of his plays (sorry for my English)
The fun/tragic aspect of this relationship is that both Stolas and Blitz are very deeply damaged, but in completely different ways. Neither of them is to blame fully for how the relationship is, and yet neither is completely blameless, either. A very well-written situation.
My sweet summer child, we will be here after new moon for you 😅😅 Also, to turn the knife inside a little, owls just fall in love once on their lives. Also, if you see the credits, this was a fan song before (it got a little make over to fit the narrativ) but yess check all the song by paranoid dj, he has done MANY fan songs before for both helluva and Hazbin ... My favs, get hooked (Valentino's), and the ringleader (Fizz's before ep6 happened)
both sides are understandable because we - the audience- are shown way more than the 2 interact and tell each other. The actual interactions and dialogue are actually pretty small so far regarding their intentions and feelings and remember how Stolas behaved towards Blitz in the beginning - he showed at the beginning only interest in satisfying his needs from Blitz's POV (all the beep dialogue of what he wants to do with Blitz). We see in recent episodes that he tries to soften this with proposals like cuddling but the way Blitz responded to that shows that he is deeply traumatized and therefore can not accept Stolas offer at the time responding with: "Stolas don't act as if what we have is anything more than YOU wanting ME to f*ck you". Stolas did not correct that in any way at the time. He hears the words but can not believe in it - thinking these are lies. Also Matt I don't know if you are familiar with VRChat(on steam). There you can go into 3D worlds as a first person and interact with other people around the globe in amazingly created worlds - it is also really nice to schedule meet ups with your gloobal friends. There you find a lot of cool galaxy like worlds and also if you are interested they've rebuild a Hazbin Hotel. They even include games you can play in some worlds. I think it would be awesome to experience this with your girlfriend. It is pretty cool - it is literally like virtually cosplaying with either a standard avatar(free) or a customized avatar. You can do this as trial on PC or use the VRCHAT gear where you can gear up to all your joints to move like a real person in these worlds. Just wanted to share this with you since you said you would like to visit galaxy like environments. This is the closest you can get at the moment and VRChat exploded during Covid since a lot of people put their everything into these worlds where they can hang out with their friends. FYI: here are some really informative videos to have an overview of VRChat on youtube - The Wonderful Worlds of VRChat by Yomarda - Best VRChat Worlds you MUST visit! (Quest & PC) by VRelity - NIFFTY IS THE IMPOSTER in Hazbin Hotel VRChat Among Us by VRChat - Hazbin Hotel MURDER MYSTERY in VRChat by Hazbin Hotel by VRChat
Blitz thinks that Stolas doesn’t love him and that Stolas only uses him like a play thing deep down blitz haze fellings for Stolas and Stolas does too❤❤❤
If you think about it this story is about two “people” that want to be together but because of multiple reasons such as class system, daddy issues, trauma, lack of understanding relationships, self worth/self loathing, communication skills and more. It will be hard for them because what a lot of people forget is that we the viewer gets both sides of their stories and past. Stolas, outside of being married to Stella seems to have had a good life while Blitz has so much wrong things happen in his life with most of it being his fault.
Oh we've finally come to the Look my Way video :') Stolas' VA said it made him feel like a Disney Princess and it's kinda true :') Thank you for another delightful reaction video, see you soon 😊
i love that you are going through allot of my favorite series’s. hazbin was amazing, helluva boss is great. and gravity falls (maybe) has been my all time favorite since i saw it
This song got me crying the most. I've re watched it too many times now lol. I hope you and your partner find ways for you to be overly emotional. It sadly really dragged me down that my ex didn't want any affection and felt I was smothering them but now the person I'm with I can release that energy happily and I pray you two can work that out because I feel us overly affectionate souls need to be able to release that without someone telling us its not something they want. I feel like your partner is probably more accepting than mine was (they introduced you to theses series if I remember right) so I pray they have a bit of that hidden in them. I will say I'm guessing its maybe my settings but the video seemed fuzzier, thought maybe it was focusing on the background more than on you so may just need some tweaking on its field of view but I'll play around with my own settings later. Love seeing your reactions and have been waiting for this one because it hit me so hard.
This music video is so wonderful with its story telling. The moon represents Blitz. First small and no more important than the rest of the stars. Then Stolis noticed the moon and it revolved around him as Stolis ignores everything else in the galaxy. The moon leaves the orbit getting bigger and bigger. Blitz becoming more and more. Til the final part, "I will try to make amends, for making you means to an end", and the moon is so big that Stolis can't even reach it anymore. The small insignificant moon that revolved around Stolis has become a large presence that won't be controlled by him any longer.
I've been waiting for this one ! Thank you for listening to those of us who asked you to watch it now 🙏 it's a little thing but if you hadn't you woudn't know what the cristal was (not to mention the psyche of Stolas at this time of course) Anyway, if you love emotions and drama you're gonna LOVE the next episodes 😂 Bisous and love from France ❤
If you do watch the shorts (I definitely think you should, they're amazing and so funny. Also definitely watch them after you finish the main series as the 2nd short came out last) there's only 2 at the moment, there should be another one coming out I believe either this month or next month
I think they said it would be this month and next month. The main question would be, to wait until they are all out and cover them in one big video or not. Important note, the prerequisites for the first short have been met, but for the second, he needs to wait until after episode 2-9. Since the one short came out at a convention at the same time as the 2B trailer, but the second was after the recent set of full episodes.
Going forward you need to remember the only reliable narrator in this is, well, us, the audience. We're the ones who see the situation clearly. The characters, not so much.
Remember that Stolas isn't ready either. You forget that Stolas needs to learn to treat imps equally before he can get into a relationship with one. He thinks he's ready, but he's not. He has been squeezing servants and demeaning to Blitz multiple times. He doesn't mean to, but he talks down to Blitz a lot throughout the episodes if you go back. Blitz has plenty of reasons to doubt him, even if he don't count his trauma and self hate. Stolas looks like he's trying, but he's not doing a good job doing so. Also, you are still doubting Blitz's feelings? You do need a rewatch lol. There are hints all over the place. Rewatch for Stolas mistreating imps and rewatch to see how Blitz feels.
I have a feeling that they need a proper sit down to communicate instead of what they did, and also before getting together (since they most likely will) they should have to sort out their own problems
Oh no-...The Full Moon is coming.
Full Moon is going to be a rollercoaster. 6 returning minor characters! new characters! new locations! secrets! lore! and .....

The fact your partner has gone all this time without spoiling anything for you is a level of self-control that I definitely do not have. XD

I'm seeing someone already commented that you should have in mind Stolas is hopeless romantic with no real relationship experience and Blitz has a lot of trauma BUT I hope you also keep in mind this season is not yet over and the show's planned to have 4 seasons as far as I remember from the interviews I've listened. So things between the two of them might go on a wild rollercoaster but there should always be hope as Vivienne said she likes a happy end.
And yes, please do all the shorts in one video - they're not to be missed.
This song is what made me watch the show. I watched this and was mind blown and went to watch everything just so I could get Stolas’s story. A beautiful piece of art
the MV showed us what was coming, some of us saw it some of us didn't
The song is incredible, Bryce's voice is absolutely haunting in the best ways imaginable... UGH the beauty of this song.
.
Matt, I so look forward to these videos even if I'm way late getting to them. Your takes are great and even if you lose the tiny details sometimes you always have a great perspective.
Idk how i didn't realize sooner how pretty your eyes are ...so very pretty :)
Also can't wait for full moon reaction, I just know that it's gonna be great.
And thank you for the extra, appreciate it :}
This was originally made by a fan that Vivzie made cannon. The OG artist is Paranoid DJ
This song hits every time. 🥺 I also watched your 4 minute preview on Patreon.
2:32 Fun fact: This song was originally a fan made song by Paranoid DJ, but Viv loved it so much that she changed a few lyrics to make it cannon.
Just keep in mind that two people can be having completely different conversations at the same time. What you believe and what you think is going to color the way you hear the other person's words
Beautiful song and beautiful show
Hella good song honestly, orchestral usage was really well done along with an amazing voice and production
1:37 Asmodeon yes.
Don't apologize for your 'ranting' or whenever you get on a tangent, it's what I (and I'm sure many others) watch specifically for! I think the new quality is great, I kept getting mesmerized by the way your nails catch the light when you talk. They look so cute, btw.
I wait with anticipation for Full Moon and I will have my Stolitz (Stolas/Blitz) pillow at the ready for hugging. I'd love to see you react to the shorts after the next two episodes! :)
This song is beautiful and says so much about what's in Stolas heart and mind but you have to keep in mind that Blitz hasn't heard this song. Because we see next episode in the context of this song but Blitz doesn't.
I think everyone made that same face when they saw the Stolas leap at 15:20
Well, get ready for a movie 😂
personally, the Antartica short can go before or after the Apology Tour. Hells Belles can go anything before. As I don't know that Hell's Belles has a direct link between two episodes or not
Nah, there's a spoiler that's just not as obvious to some. So it's more after Apology Tour.
3:46 This song is an edited rendition of a pre-existing fan song by Paranoid DJ.
We all feel the same way, Stolas loves Blitz so genuinely and truly wants to do right by him, it's impossible not to root for him. I want them both to be happy. And this is a necessary first step! They can't have a relationship as equals with the book in the way. But this music video made me nervous, because the Blitz in this beautiful song is an imaginary one inside Stolas' head. I'm not sure Stolas remembers that the real Blitz hasn't been on this journey of romantic self-reflection with him. The real Blitz hasn't talked to Stolas in months. (And may not ever have shared his feelings honestly, beyond that painful exchange after Ozzie's.)
Their scheduled night together is always scheduled for the full moon unless something comes up. So the moon is his symbol for Blitz.
YES! Please do react to the shorts.
I love Paranoid Dj so much and I was so happy when Paranoid and Vivzie came together to release this video, so happy to see your reaction to it. Love your reactions, can’t wait to see more!
My eyesight've improved! Seriously great picture, congrats with figuring out that camera stuff. I also love your outfit!
He called us a good little fanbase... 😊 I know I have such a praise kink 🫣
Hey after catching up there is one fan animation I really recommend, It’s called “Foolish To Think - A Helluva Boss Animatic”
The artist made this animation with a song Stolas’s voice actor has sung for one of his plays (sorry for my English)
I'm a sucker for this type of music too! Thanks for reacting to the music video, I cried when I first saw it
YOU SHOULD ALSO REACT TO BLITZO VS GRANDPA!
Seconding this!
The fun/tragic aspect of this relationship is that both Stolas and Blitz are very deeply damaged, but in completely different ways. Neither of them is to blame fully for how the relationship is, and yet neither is completely blameless, either. A very well-written situation.
Yay tysm!1 Ur an amazing UA-camr especially with the fact that u actually take feedback from fans:D
Yes its a asmodius cristal with that people can travel leagaly to eart
My sweet summer child, we will be here after new moon for you 😅😅
Also, to turn the knife inside a little, owls just fall in love once on their lives.
Also, if you see the credits, this was a fan song before (it got a little make over to fit the narrativ) but yess check all the song by paranoid dj, he has done MANY fan songs before for both helluva and Hazbin ... My favs, get hooked (Valentino's), and the ringleader (Fizz's before ep6 happened)
this was such a great song
both sides are understandable because we - the audience- are shown way more than the 2 interact and tell each other. The actual interactions and dialogue are actually pretty small so far regarding their intentions and feelings and remember how Stolas behaved towards Blitz in the beginning - he showed at the beginning only interest in satisfying his needs from Blitz's POV (all the beep dialogue of what he wants to do with Blitz). We see in recent episodes that he tries to soften this with proposals like cuddling but the way Blitz responded to that shows that he is deeply traumatized and therefore can not accept Stolas offer at the time responding with: "Stolas don't act as if what we have is anything more than YOU wanting ME to f*ck you". Stolas did not correct that in any way at the time. He hears the words but can not believe in it - thinking these are lies.
Also Matt I don't know if you are familiar with VRChat(on steam). There you can go into 3D worlds as a first person and interact with other people around the globe in amazingly created worlds - it is also really nice to schedule meet ups with your gloobal friends. There you find a lot of cool galaxy like worlds and also if you are interested they've rebuild a Hazbin Hotel. They even include games you can play in some worlds. I think it would be awesome to experience this with your girlfriend.
It is pretty cool - it is literally like virtually cosplaying with either a standard avatar(free) or a customized avatar. You can do this as trial on PC or use the VRCHAT gear where you can gear up to all your joints to move like a real person in these worlds. Just wanted to share this with you since you said you would like to visit galaxy like environments. This is the closest you can get at the moment and VRChat exploded during Covid since a lot of people put their everything into these worlds where they can hang out with their friends.
FYI: here are some really informative videos to have an overview of VRChat on youtube

So many people who reacted to this didn’t pick up on the “moonlit nights”. He meets with Blitz on the full moon.
Blitz thinks that Stolas doesn’t love him and that Stolas only uses him like a play thing deep down blitz haze fellings for Stolas and Stolas does too❤❤❤
1:08 I love the beginning of this song 😭
Yes I'm so excited, I love this song and I'm interested to see what you think of it
Yes that is the crystal he asked for which is why we told you to watch it now it is important for next episodes
If you think about it this story is about two “people” that want to be together but because of multiple reasons such as class system, daddy issues, trauma, lack of understanding relationships, self worth/self loathing, communication skills and more.
It will be hard for them because what a lot of people forget is that we the viewer gets both sides of their stories and past. Stolas, outside of being married to Stella seems to have had a good life while Blitz has so much wrong things happen in his life with most of it being his fault.
Oh we've finally come to the Look my Way video :') Stolas' VA said it made him feel like a Disney Princess and it's kinda true :')
Thank you for another delightful reaction video, see you soon 😊
i love that you are going through allot of my favorite series’s. hazbin was amazing, helluva boss is great. and gravity falls (maybe) has been my all time favorite since i saw it
12:30 "The song is fantastic as it is... I... AM A SLUT." XD I've never laughed so much in my live dude XD
First time seeing this again since seeing the next two episodes. Seems to be hitting harder now.
This song got me crying the most. I've re watched it too many times now lol. I hope you and your partner find ways for you to be overly emotional. It sadly really dragged me down that my ex didn't want any affection and felt I was smothering them but now the person I'm with I can release that energy happily and I pray you two can work that out because I feel us overly affectionate souls need to be able to release that without someone telling us its not something they want. I feel like your partner is probably more accepting than mine was (they introduced you to theses series if I remember right) so I pray they have a bit of that hidden in them. I will say I'm guessing its maybe my settings but the video seemed fuzzier, thought maybe it was focusing on the background more than on you so may just need some tweaking on its field of view but I'll play around with my own settings later. Love seeing your reactions and have been waiting for this one because it hit me so hard.
Grab your tissues we're going to be crying during Full moon 😭😭😭
This song is delightful! I hope you’re ready for the next few.. HOOHHHH
This music video is so wonderful with its story telling. The moon represents Blitz. First small and no more important than the rest of the stars. Then Stolis noticed the moon and it revolved around him as Stolis ignores everything else in the galaxy. The moon leaves the orbit getting bigger and bigger. Blitz becoming more and more. Til the final part, "I will try to make amends, for making you means to an end", and the moon is so big that Stolis can't even reach it anymore. The small insignificant moon that revolved around Stolis has become a large presence that won't be controlled by him any longer.
1:02 Mattables, you are just the sweetest 🥹 Don’t cry
yes to the shorts btw
Yes, I would indeed love a complilation. I've loved your reactions for both Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss!
I've been waiting for this one !
Thank you for listening to those of us who asked you to watch it now 🙏 it's a little thing but if you hadn't you woudn't know what the cristal was (not to mention the psyche of Stolas at this time of course)
Anyway, if you love emotions and drama you're gonna LOVE the next episodes 😂
Bisous and love from France ❤
Reminds me of London theatre ❤
If you do watch the shorts (I definitely think you should, they're amazing and so funny. Also definitely watch them after you finish the main series as the 2nd short came out last) there's only 2 at the moment, there should be another one coming out I believe either this month or next month
I think they said it would be this month and next month. The main question would be, to wait until they are all out and cover them in one big video or not. Important note, the prerequisites for the first short have been met, but for the second, he needs to wait until after episode 2-9. Since the one short came out at a convention at the same time as the 2B trailer, but the second was after the recent set of full episodes.
@@karlthorkildson4650 right, well I think he did say he would cover them after he finishes the series but definitely important that he does
Full Moon next!! Good luck!
Excited for the discussion around these next episodes. I have all the thoughts and too many for a comment section so I can't wait to hear ur thoughts
Yes, watch the shorts after the full moon episode.
I love this song sm i nearly cried watching this haha
For as mane times i watched the music video i just noticed that the stars are upside down crosses
Welp... get ready for a movie boys
Going forward you need to remember the only reliable narrator in this is, well, us, the audience. We're the ones who see the situation clearly. The characters, not so much.
💯
Remember that Stolas isn't ready either. You forget that Stolas needs to learn to treat imps equally before he can get into a relationship with one. He thinks he's ready, but he's not. He has been squeezing servants and demeaning to Blitz multiple times. He doesn't mean to, but he talks down to Blitz a lot throughout the episodes if you go back. Blitz has plenty of reasons to doubt him, even if he don't count his trauma and self hate. Stolas looks like he's trying, but he's not doing a good job doing so. Also, you are still doubting Blitz's feelings? You do need a rewatch lol. There are hints all over the place. Rewatch for Stolas mistreating imps and rewatch to see how Blitz feels.
Absolutely 💯
You are so not prepared for what's coming. 😁😁😁
Sooo, Full Moon is gonna be next ... o boi, this will be brutal. :/
oh yes, the full moon is coming! 🎉❤
Oh no.. the Full Moon..
Noo im not ready for tomorrow 😭😭😭
11:20 Blitz has a hard time communicating especially with his self deprication
Can we do a UA-cam live for Helluva Boss? 🥹 9:58
Have fun with the next two episodes! There will be some of the greatest songs ever! :D
I have a feeling that they need a proper sit down to communicate instead of what they did, and also before getting together (since they most likely will) they should have to sort out their own problems
