Considering how Blitz is accidently responsible for the biggest trauma of his life and messing up the lives of his loved ones, resulting on him to always deny himself any chance of being happy as punishment... I will say that self loathing is the very definition of his character.
Stolas and Blitz do not have the healthiest relationship and that song is after them blowing up. They need some serious conversations before getting back together. The song slaps though
@@XFizzlepop-Berrytwist Stolas LITERALLY dismissed Blitzo the moment he didn't IMMEDIATELY believe someone who established a deal involving having sex with him to make his business viable could actually love him. If you actually pay attention to the whole series, Blitzo especially has EVERY reason to believe their relationship is just physical. Like even at Ozzie's Blitzo was just confused when Stolas very poorly tried to start small talk. Then he hid his face when Ozzie called out their relationship. THEN when Blitzo takes him home, he offers Blitzo WINE, a movie, and "cuddling". To Blitzo that means "We can get drunk and fuck, netflix and chill, or cuddle bone." Cause that's all their relationship has been built on. Stolas NEVER asked Blitzo out on a date. The one time he asked him to accompany him somewhere, he hired him as a bodyguard and flirted sexually with him the entire time, in front of his daughter. Now WE know why he's acting like this. He's a romantic that has been STARVED of literally any romantic affection for his ENTIRE life. And at this point in time their deal is actually fresh, so he's like RIGHT in a sort of love high. But BLITZO doesn't know that, how could he? He's just a "thirsty owl". WEEEEEEEE know that Stolas genuinely loves Blitzo. BLITZO does not know that, and BLITZO could never infer that because Blitzo hates himself because he accidentally KILLED HIS MOTHER AND MAIMED HIS BEST FRIEND all because he was self conscious about exposing his love for Fizz. In episode 8 Blitzo literally was shocked he was being serious, when this is literally their designated sex night that Stolas established, and Stolas opened up the conversation by dropping onto Blitzo that he's taking his book back permanently, then flipping to the crystal when Blitzo was afraid the whole day that he was getting bored of him and if that happens he takes back his book, and if that happens Blitzo loses, EVERYTHING. Not just his business, but he loses Moxxie and Millie as well, and IMP is literally the only thing keeping Blitzo together, and they've actually been really positive for him overall. As soon as Blitzo isn't immediately confessing his love for Stolas, Stolas literally dismisses him, Blitzo is shocked he was being serious, and he asks for a minute to think, but Stolas just walks away and then when Blitzo demands he not dismiss him, Stolas teleports him outside, WHILE I'll remind you, basically saying this is all Blitzo's fault. Stolas genuinely cares about Blitzo, but that doesn't mean he knows how to navigate choppy waters. Blitzo is rough seas, and Stolas just kinda assumed boating is easy. Stolas wanted this dramatic, romantic explosion of passion and love, but he failed to understand there's more to this situation than just nullifying their deal. He needs to convince Blitzo that he actually genuinely cares for him, and he's not going to up and leave because Blitzo finds it hard to love anyone for fear they'll realize he's a piece of shit the second he starts to return their affection, then they'll leave him, putting another hole in his heart that he needs to keep people away from just to live. Oh look, Stolas was unhappy with Blitzo's reaction to his love confession, and literally threw him out, breaking all ties and putting the blame on Blitzo. How very positive for Blitzo's mental state. To be clear, I'm on team the two of them becoming a proper couple. But relationships are fucking complicated, and unless one of them has a grand revelation, they need someone else to help them actually figure out what they both want. Fizz and Ozzie would probably be a pretty good team actually. Octavia could probably help, at least help on Stolas' end, maybe help him see how he might be hurting Blitzo and should try to see it from his side? Loona probably wouldn't help, she's not exactly a social flower either.
Even with little to no context i think you read the Stolas/Blitzø situation very well. Lots of people are really firmly more on one side than the other but really they are both at fault and i think you have done a good job at seeing both sides quite well, even from just the songs.
21:23 Matthew has literally only listened to the songs and fucking NAILED why it’s both their fault and they need to apologise *to each other* instead of just one side, goddamn. Love these videos so much.
U analysed the songs way better than those who are alr in the fandom for quite long and I’m VERY IMPRESSED 🥰. U get both sides very well and knew the complexity of their characters. 😊
I love how Mathew's trauma after Chazz was just so strong he blocked it from his memory immediately. He just be like "that one goes into The Vault" and forgets it ever existed. but his nightmares won't :)
I know everybody and their mother's said it already but MY GOD the way that he understood and articulated both sides of the Stolitz situation better than most reactors/video essayists & commentors from just listening to the songs (and I'm assuming at **best** he's only actually watched through the end of S1? Or maybe he hasn't even gotten to like Ozzie's or anything??) is kinda crazy. Like, good on him fr
Making this more depressing, for the first & (technical) third song, Blitzø is at a party hosted by Verosika for all the people who hate Blitzø and who were hurt by him like she was. So Blitzø is at a party surrounded by all the people who hate him and now Stolas is among those people, and even tho Stolas doesn’t hate him he feels less alone and that is just painful to see🥲
@@LiMe251 can’t really say he missed that detail, since that is a detail not established during a song (right before a song). He also never stops to watch frame by frame and it was a split second scene
Dude, you actually get these characters and their emotions better than most of the fanbase who watch the show! xD I have nothing to add because you were spot on.
You are correct, most people are team stolas, it's like 1:5 on teamBlitz: team stolas But almost everyone agrees that it's both of their faults in some sort of way
Are you sure? UA-cam is full of "Stolas is an hypocrite" compilations since when Apology Tour was released. People seem much more forgiving towards Blitz, also because Stolas is the one who acted in a less reasonable way in Full Moon. And I agree, in this specific case (the breakup of Full Moon) I think Blitz has basically no fault. Sure, he screamed at Stolas, but Stolas wasn't willing to listen to anything he had to say. Edit: but, yes, most people believe that tgey are both at fault in some way.
@@elora512 If you go to reaction channels, then yes, I also have noticed that most of them sided with Stolas. But if you look for video analysis or other places in the fandom, then there's A LOT of complaining regarding Stolas. From people still protesting that Stolas called Blitz "my impish little plaything" in his grand entrance in ep 6, people saying that he didn't care about Blitz being in danger wheh he set the arrangement, and many other things. The common opinion among youtube essayst is that it's crucial that the series acknowledges Stolas' flaws, too. Most of them believe that both Stolas and Blitz are at fault, but regarding Full Moon they tend to side a bit more towards Blitz than Stolas. Those compilations I've mentioned are so many at this point. People start from Stolas' line "I don't look down on you" and then make a compilation of scenes where you might say that Stolas looked down on Blitz. Sometimes they also criticize other things, like Stolas' speech about wanting "someone to care" (they say he isn't actually in love with Blitz, because he doesn't really know him, but he's just in love with romance). They also get angry for Stolas saying that he always supported Blitz because all he openly did to show he cared was using pet names in public, while in Ozzie's he couldn't stand up for their relationship. Oh, they also get angry for Stolas wanting Blitz specifically to save him even though Blitz alredy sent the M&M, considering that that day Blitz had to be there for his daughter. It's a lot. Personally, I think sometimes those videos and accusations towards Stolas are unfair, but they're right in saying that Stolas can't act like he's the only one wounded in this relationship, and someone needs to make him reflect on how much he actually knows about Blitz. Stolas is always so focused on his own feelings, he has to learn to consider the other's point of view more.
I think the reason why people call Stolas a hypocrite is because he would often be very demeaning with Blitzo and call him a "plaything" or something like "tiny little imp", and honestly 95% of the time they both interacted Stolas was just very horny and not serious, even when Blitzo showed that he disliked some of the things he did or said. It always seemed like an act and a non serious relationship to Blitzo because Stollas made it look that way, so on the few times Stolas actually genuinely expresses feelings for Blitzo it was once again taken as an act. And in their grand fight when Stolas proclaimed his genuine love it made sense that Blitzo would get angry and felt like his feelings were being played with because Stolas never seriously showed that the relationship was serious to him (he even got embarrassed to be called out on it at Ozzie's), and now he seemingly did a full 180 and told Blitzo he cares about him, so it's like make up your mind ya know, do you want to have a genuine respectful relationship or do you want to call Blitzo 10 times and pretend like you're being kidnapped while you call him basically racial slurs by hells standards hoping to get boned. We as viewers see a lot of scenes of Stolas genuinely caring but they rarely ever happen with Blitzo actually around so of course he wouldn't know about it.
People are just impatient, like the song itself shows that they're gonna address Stolas's mistakes but nooo they can't wait for another episode as if the show is over
4:14 I'm upset at the spoilers ur getting. He's always in the middle of depression. Edit: The second part is about Blitzø because he asked it as I typed
That last song really set up how they went into a situation with VERY opposite expectations, stolas with a big change and blizø with a return to normalcy, that the argument mentioned was inevitable.
Thank you for picking up on the 'we'll just stick with what makes sense', because people quickly overlook that. Blitzø is _not_ able to deal with his own emotions. Dude is looking at the mess that is his feelings and schedules disecting that for 'later'. Again and again.
22:50 You think Stolas' voice is great for that musical sound? FUN FACT: Bryce Pinkham (Stolas' VA) was on the Tony's as Monty in "A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder" So if you want to hear him singing beautiful and funny songs about him killing his royal relatives then check it out! It is criminal how many of the Helluva Boss fans I've talked to had no idea he was actually a Broadway actor.
People call Stolas an hipocrite because he tried to fix a situation that he himself created, that he played with Blitz's feelings onlt to then expecting for him to keep on wanting him after freeing him from the deal they had. But the point is... both Blitz and Stolas f**ked up their relationship big time. Stolas was the one that started their agreement over the grimoire. He wanted to have Blitz around, to have him close and try to build a relationship with him, but he didn't know how because he never actually had any romantic experience. But, by doing that, he led Blitz to believe what they had was nothing but a transation: Blitz got to use the book, while Stolas would get him s**ually. Despite the two actually got to develop feelings for each other, they didn't know how to make things work properly. Once Stolas realized what they had was not healthy, he tried to fix it, but, by doing that, he caused Blitz, who has a great insecurity regarding relationship commitment due to his self-loathing, to think Stolas was just using him for being a low-class him to satisfy his desires, leading to him to snap at him viciously.
PLEASE REACT TO "SPIRIT: STALLION OF THE CIMARRON"! It's a story about a strong, beautiful horse with a spirit that can never be broken. I cry every time I watch it! It's a INCREDIBLE film, and the songs are so cool! But it's not a musical and the animals can't talk. 😭💔🔥
Honestly my response to everyone hating on rather Stolas or Blitzø is that they're both in the wrong in different ways, they both suck at communicating and messed up in different ways and they also have completely different thoughts and POVs with everything
I'm not even going to say anything about the party itself and I hope no one else does because you finding it out for yourself is gonna be priceless. Suffice to say, Stoliz is teetering on the edge right now 8:31 Yeah, that's pretty much everyone's reaction to Chazz All 2 U is one of those songs that you can kinda her bands like Nirvana singing, it's definitely a very similar style. Except, you know, way more sad. 21:23 And now you're seeing the big picture and the reason for the break up
Tbh you actually had a really good read on the situation! It's really complex but I'd recommend Sarcastic Chorus's video on the subject if you're interested in deep-diving once you catch up to the episodes! There's a lot of nuance on Blitz's end that tends to get lost, and a lot of things that fly under the radar for stolas, but people have been pretty good with breaking things down!
You should totally react to alien stage! It's under 30 minutes. It has such good songs and so many things going on at the same time that I'd consider it reaction-worthy.
If you do enjoy the singing voice of Stolas, he is voiced by Bryce Pinkham. He is an incredible performer and stars in a musical called A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder. They are incredible songs if you’re looking for something else to react to! Songs I would rec are Poison in My Pocket, I’ve Decided to Marry You, and Stop! Wait! What?!
I legit skipped the video just to get to all 2 u because that song is so frikkin addicting and heartbreaking at the same time that I can’t stop listening to it but I can’t get happy
"Chaz Time" was the first time I actually regretted there being a song in every Helluva Boss episode. (In hindsight it's just funny, though.) Stolas doesn't just wildly romanticize "Blitzy", he constantly condescends to him and treats imps as lesser generally. He doesn't realize he's doing it, but it's been stinging for Blitz all along. Now that you've been spoiled, I guess it'll be easier to notice that when you watch the full episodes. Which you should, it's practically sadistic that you stopped right before S1E6. Felicity clearly knows how to inflict maximum pain and anticipation on your channel audience. :)
Oh man! I was kind of hoping that you would react to the version of "When I See Him" that has the studio recording videos. Seeing Brandon and Brice's different acting styles is crazy!
Always love watching Mat going through the emotional rollercoaster of not knowing what's going on in the show by listening to these out of context and out of order. All 2 U has been playing in my head rent free and I love it though.
Tbf most people think both Blitz and Stolas messed up, but there is also a lot of people firmly team Stolas while there is basically nobody firmly team Blitz
@@jizaidieausserirdische1511 I think after understanding both characters better and analyzing everything a bit, me too... Though I feel sorry for Stolas and I hope they both get their shit together and maybe will be happy together
Ppl always seem to side with stolas in the drama between those two, I end up constantly reminding ppl that Stolas sexually abused/traumatized Blitzø point blank period.
You don’t need to remind it because I almost don’t see the other point of view in this little conflict For me, Both of them fucked up, it would be better to focus the plot on their business, at least There Blitzo’s assholness looks funny
I think the reason people are siding more with Blitzø and calling Stolas out is (without giving anything away) mainly to do with Stolas’ approach to what happened, he completely sprung it out of nowhere and didn’t give him any time at all to respond - just sort of decided it went a certain way and then completely shut it off. ALTHOUGH it’s fun to see the tables turn - with Blitzø chasing Stolas and Stolas being closed off rather than the other way around. Hopefully this helps them understand eachother a bit better and they can sort their shit out 😂😂
Considering Mathew said that Stolas' voice is so fitting for musicals, I'd love for him to do a reaction to A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder. A murder comedy musical which has Bryce Pinkham (who voices Stolas) as the main character. Their Tony's performance was great and I'd also like to mention Poison in My Pocket and Sibella as a few suggestions.
The backstory is that Blitz LOVES horses (we don't know why, actually) but Brandon Rogers, Blitz' VA, actually doesn't like them very much at all. Also, unfortunately, in the first couple of scenes here? Stolas has RUN OUT OF HIS (possible) ANXIETY/(possible) DEPRESSION MEDS.
When are you going to watch episode 6?!??! It's the best episode, debatably. Plus I really want to see your reaction (especially to the one scene from the out of context)
Bro, I saw Stolas on the cover, and I. CAME. RUNNIIIIIING!!! Edit: 8:48 --> same brother. I forgot about this and I'm desperately trying to forget it again!!!
I recommend everyone who thinks that blitzø is in the wrong watch sarcastic chorus' videos on these two. It explains the reason why Stolas is a hypocrite and how both of them are very wrong about their approach to this
I'd love to see you react to A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder. Stolas's singer does an incredible job in it and its a delightful dark comedy. I recommend Sibella and I've Decided to Marry you!
If you like Christina Vee's (Verosika) voice, I'd reccomend listening to a few of her covers. She has one of the Miraculous Ladybug intro with NateWantsToBattle, and one of Other Friends (she goes nuts in that one)
15:22 Ok, great explanation but missing out the bit where Stolas made it sound like he was ending things between them for like a Hot second which freaked Blitzø the fuck out and how Blitzø totally dismissed his feelings as them roleplaying or something cause he is incapable of having serious emotional conversations without making light of it Its gonna be fun when Matthew gets around to reacting to the actual episode, 16:46 very wise decision
6:43 they I both clicked my tongue against the roof of my mouth while having my jaw drop but grinning oh _man_ I actually love it and have looked it up outside of the show reactions 7:50 why aren't they having you watch the regular (I love that he stumbles over it) also having Over You before 2 U and...what order is this aa 11:16 the orderrr (12:26 ah correct him, ma'am) 18:48 initiated by him 23:52 yep bc the conversation was...cut short
Ice cream dumplings: they’re a thing and they’re called mochi. Target has them for sale and lots of Asian markets. They’re spectacular. Also I’m a superb fan of Daifuku (refrigerated red or mung bean rice cakes in different flavors) they can also be found in Asian markets
on the surface, i think it’s really easy to sympathize or side with stolas but the relationship is VERY nuanced. i think you got the gist of it in When I See Him! i’d go on a ramble but that means emotions and i’m emotionally spent at the moment. you ought to watch to know more about how deep each of their characters go 🤣
Check out the webseries I’ve been working on: youtube.com/@sttop2030 😌💙

It always seemed like an act and a non serious relationship to Blitzo because Stollas made it look that way, so on the few times Stolas actually genuinely expresses feelings for Blitzo it was once again taken as an act. And in their grand fight when Stolas proclaimed his genuine love it made sense that Blitzo would get angry and felt like his feelings were being played with because Stolas never seriously showed that the relationship was serious to him (he even got embarrassed to be called out on it at Ozzie's), and now he seemingly did a full 180 and told Blitzo he cares about him, so it's like make up your mind ya know, do you want to have a genuine respectful relationship or do you want to call Blitzo 10 times and pretend like you're being kidnapped while you call him basically racial slurs by hells standards hoping to get boned. We as viewers see a lot of scenes of Stolas genuinely caring but they rarely ever happen with Blitzo actually around so of course he wouldn't know about it.

I tots agree that's why I've always been on the blitz gang 😂 but I love stolas too tho. Mathew should for sure
People are just impatient, like the song itself shows that they're gonna address Stolas's mistakes but nooo they can't wait for another episode as if the show is over
@@Autumn-xs1bt Peoples opinions aren’t set in stone. People are allowed to have thoughts on something, and then change them with more information
THANK YOU OMG so ,any people miss these facts holy shit we see sooo much of stolas side but never of blitz
Stolas is his own worst enemy sometimes, and Blitzø is his own worst enemy all the time.
They are truly perfect for each other /shot
4:14 I'm upset at the spoilers ur getting. He's always in the middle of depression. Edit: The second part is about Blitzø because he asked it as I typed
Yeah same...
4:52 She's over Blitzø
10:09
"Chaz - no."
Crimson: And I took that literally
That last song really set up how they went into a situation with VERY opposite expectations, stolas with a big change and blizø with a return to normalcy, that the argument mentioned was inevitable.
I love how he immediately was nervous about Chaz😂☠️for your information no one likes chaz
In universe, yeah. But I think he's fun
Really? I mostly saw people liking him at the time the episode dropped, he's funny and stuff I guess, I wasn't one of the ones who liked him
except me, he is hilarious 🤣
@@substandardnerd he'd definitely be in and out of jail irl if he was real idk about that 😂
i love chaz omg
Thank you for picking up on the 'we'll just stick with what makes sense', because people quickly overlook that. Blitzø is _not_ able to deal with his own emotions. Dude is looking at the mess that is his feelings and schedules disecting that for 'later'. Again and again.
22:50 You think Stolas' voice is great for that musical sound? FUN FACT: Bryce Pinkham (Stolas' VA) was on the Tony's as Monty in "A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder" So if you want to hear him singing beautiful and funny songs about him killing his royal relatives then check it out! It is criminal how many of the Helluva Boss fans I've talked to had no idea he was actually a Broadway actor.
Your fr so emotionally intelligent it’s crazy ❤❤
You should watch the behind the scenes video to "when i see him tonight", watching the actual voice artists!
People call Stolas an hipocrite because he tried to fix a situation that he himself created, that he played with Blitz's feelings onlt to then expecting for him to keep on wanting him after freeing him from the deal they had. But the point is... both Blitz and Stolas f**ked up their relationship big time. Stolas was the one that started their agreement over the grimoire. He wanted to have Blitz around, to have him close and try to build a relationship with him, but he didn't know how because he never actually had any romantic experience. But, by doing that, he led Blitz to believe what they had was nothing but a transation: Blitz got to use the book, while Stolas would get him s**ually. Despite the two actually got to develop feelings for each other, they didn't know how to make things work properly. Once Stolas realized what they had was not healthy, he tried to fix it, but, by doing that, he caused Blitz, who has a great insecurity regarding relationship commitment due to his self-loathing, to think Stolas was just using him for being a low-class him to satisfy his desires, leading to him to snap at him viciously.
PLEASE REACT TO "SPIRIT: STALLION OF THE CIMARRON"! It's a story about a strong, beautiful horse with a spirit that can never be broken. I cry every time I watch it! It's a INCREDIBLE film, and the songs are so cool! But it's not a musical and the animals can't talk. 😭💔🔥
Oh man l loved that movie so much as a kid and honestly it still holds up amazingly, l just watched it again this year and had a blast
Seriously awesome movie 23/20
0:01 the set up looks cool, I like it
*Mathziepop*
Sounds like if Helluva Boss was made by a math teacher.
✨IT'S CHAZ TIME✨
Honestly my response to everyone hating on rather Stolas or Blitzø is that they're both in the wrong in different ways, they both suck at communicating and messed up in different ways and they also have completely different thoughts and POVs with everything
I'm not even going to say anything about the party itself and I hope no one else does because you finding it out for yourself is gonna be priceless. Suffice to say, Stoliz is teetering on the edge right now
8:31 Yeah, that's pretty much everyone's reaction to Chazz
All 2 U is one of those songs that you can kinda her bands like Nirvana singing, it's definitely a very similar style. Except, you know, way more sad.
21:23 And now you're seeing the big picture and the reason for the break up
7:08 He's definitely on some lists
Tbh you actually had a really good read on the situation! It's really complex but I'd recommend Sarcastic Chorus's video on the subject if you're interested in deep-diving once you catch up to the episodes! There's a lot of nuance on Blitz's end that tends to get lost, and a lot of things that fly under the radar for stolas, but people have been pretty good with breaking things down!
Love it already
Real
The video didn't even come out 2 minutes ago 💀
You should totally react to alien stage! It's under 30 minutes. It has such good songs and so many things going on at the same time that I'd consider it reaction-worthy.
You are going to make him cry
Yess, he should totally react to alien stage!!
He will probably watch it out of order 😂
@kieranthewolftiger alien stage is already in a playlist, so he doesn't need to make his own like he did for this
THIS. YES.
I NEEDDDDDDD YOU TO LISTEN TO “ON MY OWN” FROM TEEN BEACH AND ITS ROSS LYNCH AND ITS SOOOO GOODDDD HIS VOCALS ARE AMAZINGGGGG
please watch the actual episode its sooo UGH. the drama. SO PLEASE WATCH
If you do enjoy the singing voice of Stolas, he is voiced by Bryce Pinkham. He is an incredible performer and stars in a musical called A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder. They are incredible songs if you’re looking for something else to react to! Songs I would rec are Poison in My Pocket, I’ve Decided to Marry You, and Stop! Wait! What?!
Honestly so excited for Matthew to catch us with this show, so many good episodes in season 2
I legit skipped the video just to get to all 2 u because that song is so frikkin addicting and heartbreaking at the same time that I can’t stop listening to it but I can’t get happy
Half-ish of season 1🤧. And also I always tear up when stolas sings the line when he is in the bathtub
Can't wait to see his reaction for All 2 U before he even reacts to it 🙏🙏
Now that I saw his reaction I can definitely agree that I love Bryce's vocals in that song 💗
20:27 Matt misses a key moment, Stolas being out of his antidepressants right before a big moment.
"Chaz Time" was the first time I actually regretted there being a song in every Helluva Boss episode. (In hindsight it's just funny, though.)
Stolas doesn't just wildly romanticize "Blitzy", he constantly condescends to him and treats imps as lesser generally. He doesn't realize he's doing it, but it's been stinging for Blitz all along. Now that you've been spoiled, I guess it'll be easier to notice that when you watch the full episodes. Which you should, it's practically sadistic that you stopped right before S1E6. Felicity clearly knows how to inflict maximum pain and anticipation on your channel audience. :)
💯
Hi Mathew!! The notification immediately made me smile just wanted to let u know. I hope u have a great day
The blue nails are so iconic, love them
Oh man! I was kind of hoping that you would react to the version of "When I See Him" that has the studio recording videos. Seeing Brandon and Brice's different acting styles is crazy!
I knowwwww it was so cool!! Honestly it reminded me of how much fun I find voice acting to be😅
Sir, those are not buckets of lube. Those are _industrial drums_ of lube.
2:13 im not sure about ice cream dumplings, but both fried ice cream and ice cream mochi exist, the mochi comes in several flavours too!
The way i was flinching every two seconds during the chaz time song lmaooo
6:20 When I saw the background I IMMEDIATELY knew what song was here 😰
WATCH THE SHOW! xD (Stolas is a hypocrite cuz he only talked about sex half the season, and now he's mad at him for thinking its all 'bout sex)
Always love watching Mat going through the emotional rollercoaster of not knowing what's going on in the show by listening to these out of context and out of order. All 2 U has been playing in my head rent free and I love it though.
Matthew's community watching him get a taste of what he's in for in upcoming episodes like oh NO
I need to finish watching Helluva Bosssss
Tbf most people think both Blitz and Stolas messed up, but there is also a lot of people firmly team Stolas while there is basically nobody firmly team Blitz
I was on Team Stolas before but tbh after Full Moon I am 100% team Blitzi ... poor guy really :'(
I've been pretty much on "Blitzøs side" the whole time.
@@jizaidieausserirdische1511 I think after understanding both characters better and analyzing everything a bit, me too...
Though I feel sorry for Stolas and I hope they both get their shit together and maybe will be happy together
HOLY SHIT LOVE THE ENVIRONMENTALISM!!!!! Good job man 🫶🏻
8:56 The squishy hat makes it worse
Ppl always seem to side with stolas in the drama between those two, I end up constantly reminding ppl that Stolas sexually abused/traumatized Blitzø point blank period.
You don’t need to remind it because I almost don’t see the other point of view in this little conflict
For me, Both of them fucked up, it would be better to focus the plot on their business, at least There Blitzo’s assholness looks funny
I think the reason people are siding more with Blitzø and calling Stolas out is (without giving anything away) mainly to do with Stolas’ approach to what happened, he completely sprung it out of nowhere and didn’t give him any time at all to respond - just sort of decided it went a certain way and then completely shut it off. ALTHOUGH it’s fun to see the tables turn - with Blitzø chasing Stolas and Stolas being closed off rather than the other way around. Hopefully this helps them understand eachother a bit better and they can sort their shit out 😂😂
Considering Mathew said that Stolas' voice is so fitting for musicals, I'd love for him to do a reaction to A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder. A murder comedy musical which has Bryce Pinkham (who voices Stolas) as the main character. Their Tony's performance was great and I'd also like to mention Poison in My Pocket and Sibella as a few suggestions.
11:19 Best song
The backstory is that Blitz LOVES horses (we don't know why, actually) but Brandon Rogers, Blitz' VA, actually doesn't like them very much at all.
Also, unfortunately, in the first couple of scenes here? Stolas has RUN OUT OF HIS (possible) ANXIETY/(possible) DEPRESSION MEDS.
17:48 she just knows what brings more watchers... your suffering mathew, u will have to accept ur fate
Chaz is someone you'd want to call a scumbag, but he'd drop the S and take it as a flirty compliment.
When are you going to watch episode 6?!??! It's the best episode, debatably. Plus I really want to see your reaction (especially to the one scene from the out of context)
He’s actually already seen it! Go search in the highest rated episode of helluva boss. I still hope he rewatches it though
@@thefitnessgrampacertest5732 True, I forgot about that. He should still watch it tho. He probably forgot most of it, and it's good for continuity
Ice cream dumplings exist. They're called mochi
Bro, I saw Stolas on the cover, and I. CAME. RUNNIIIIIING!!!
Edit:
8:48 --> same brother. I forgot about this and I'm desperately trying to forget it again!!!
I recommend everyone who thinks that blitzø is in the wrong watch sarcastic chorus' videos on these two. It explains the reason why Stolas is a hypocrite and how both of them are very wrong about their approach to this
12:45 He's a hellhound I think? Him and Luna.
5:17 ... that's new info for me whaat? 😂 I already have enough with Inosuke in Demon Slayer since his dub VA voices Adrien
Well Verosica's VA being Marinette's I've known for a while, but I didn't know about Inosuke's being Adrien's
@@georgelee2989 good luck living with Eren Jäger and Inosuke in ypur head from now on.. or Adrien in their place, idk
Check out the Behind-the-scenes of "When I See Him" video
Felicity was a vibe this whole video
on the topic of stolas having a "musical style" voice, his VA (Bryce Pinkham) is actually a broadway actor!
WATCH IT IN ORDER 😢😢
I'd love to see you react to A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder. Stolas's singer does an incredible job in it and its a delightful dark comedy. I recommend Sibella and I've Decided to Marry you!
If you like Christina Vee's (Verosika) voice, I'd reccomend listening to a few of her covers. She has one of the Miraculous Ladybug intro with NateWantsToBattle, and one of Other Friends (she goes nuts in that one)
Thank you!!!! People got so hard on Blitz, but he can't control Stolaz expectations. And they are sooo heavy!!!!
Okay felicity was so real hahahhaha
The fandom is so split, even tho the only correct answer is they both fucked up, and they both need to qork on themselves
15:22 Ok, great explanation but missing out the bit where Stolas made it sound like he was ending things between them for like a Hot second which freaked Blitzø the fuck out and how Blitzø totally dismissed his feelings as them roleplaying or something cause he is incapable of having serious emotional conversations without making light of it
Its gonna be fun when Matthew gets around to reacting to the actual episode, 16:46 very wise decision
I NEED YOU TO LISTEN TO “ON MY OWN” FROM TEEN BEACH AND ITS ROSS LYNCH AND ITS SOOOOOOO GOOD HIS VOCALS ARE AMAZING
I didn't even notice the blue pancakes, its like she literally added a blue waffles reference but super super subtly.
6:43 they I both clicked my tongue against the roof of my mouth while having my jaw drop but grinning oh _man_
I actually love it and have looked it up outside of the show reactions
7:50 why aren't they having you watch the regular
(I love that he stumbles over it)
also having Over You before 2 U and...what order is this aa
11:16 the orderrr
(12:26 ah correct him, ma'am)
18:48 initiated by him
23:52 yep bc the conversation was...cut short
Ice cream dumplings: they’re a thing and they’re called mochi. Target has them for sale and lots of Asian markets. They’re spectacular. Also I’m a superb fan of Daifuku (refrigerated red or mung bean rice cakes in different flavors) they can also be found in Asian markets
on the surface, i think it’s really easy to sympathize or side with stolas but the relationship is VERY nuanced. i think you got the gist of it in When I See Him! i’d go on a ramble but that means emotions and i’m emotionally spent at the moment. you ought to watch to know more about how deep each of their characters go 🤣
