HELLUVA BOSS - APOLOGY TOUR // S2: Episode 9 - After another argument with Stolas, Blitzo embarks on an "apology tour", giving half-baked apologies to people he's wronged in the past. The tour culminates on Earth, where Verosika Mayday is hosting a Halloween party dedicated to slamming Blitzo for his past actions. Stolas is invited to the party and sings a musical number about still loving Blitzo despite how the latter has treated him, which a disguised Blitzo witnesses. Blitzo begins to realize how terrible he's been and extends genuine apologies to both Stolas and Verosika before leaving the party in shame.
Musical number: "All 2 U (Motherfucker)", "Handle Me", and "Over You"

I apologize for how much yapping I did in this video! I could probably talk about these two sad bois for hours without taking a breath! I will try to control myself a little better next time...we will see!
Nah this is how I know it’s going to be a great reaction video
@@talizorahvasnerd Completely agree, it's clear that he cares and has analysed the characters. Quality reaction.
No but we love your yapping! That’s why we watch you! ❤
Nah man let it all loose I wanna hear everything 🍿
Edit: Love the necklace btw
No we love it that is reaction when you discuss things 👍
I appreciate the fact that Verosika doesn't kick Blitzo out. She recognizes that Blitzo absolutely belongs at the gathering of people who hate Blitzo.
that's so sad i didn't thought of it like that now i'm gonna cry again
Yes I have alot more respect for her after this episode I actually dont hate her I felt bad after what she said
And the fact that she calls him Blitz at the end, rather than Blitzo - It's progress!
Truly, no one hates him more than him.
Damn
Ouch. True but ouch, thank you for phrasing this just the right way to cause pain :p
Don’t apologize for talking “so much”. That’s why I am here.
Same
Right? It's a reaction show. Interrupt as much as you want!
@@DarcOne13 Exactly!😆
Sometimes constant pausing irritates me, but Omni only pauses when there's something thoughtful to say, not just for every little random question that occurs to them. My ADHD isn't driven to distraction by his videos, when there are some chronic pausers who I genuinely cannot get through a reaction from.
@@InkyPetrel I know what you are referring to; you're right. Also, it bothers me more when they don't pause the video and start talking over the audio of the video because I notice that they miss interesting details of the video.
Blitzø wants to be Stolas's "someone", but he still doesn't think he's worthy. Until that changes, he can't stop being bad at relationships.
Yeah. I think he’s going to need to work through his issues first- and this will finally motivate him to do that. I’m betting he’s going to have to confront his father and find some kind of closure as to the death of his mother.
Stolas does deserve better; not from someone else, but from Blitzo. Now that Blitzo has finally understood Stolas is serious, he knows he needs to change if he wants to be ready to receive those feelings and reciprocate. Because right now? He’s just not ready.
Sorry, but Blitz giving out his favorite snack as an “apology” was such a cool detail.
Cheese and hot sauce.
Yep because his VA Brandon Rogers eats cheese with hot sauce. 😂
I didn't notice this! HA I love it.
I thought it was bunch of cheeses with a “WINE” 😂😂😂
I think I love Stolas’s song so much because it’s not the “fuck you” song that it could have been or people worried it would be. It was very much just an “I’m hurt” song, which fits
Verosika absolutely fascinated me in this episode, because while her view on Blitzo are probably not too healthy. The fact she showed genuinely concern and care for Stolas and for everyone else that attended the party was an angle for her character that I didnt expect.
it was definitely strange to see her as not "a bad guy" because that was the way she was shown to us until now. Yes there were signs and mentiones that made me question her "villany" but until now we didn't really see that it was caused by being hurt.
She even showed Blitzø care, if you think about it.
She could've easily outted him for the mob to jump him, she could've easily thrown him out..
But she talked to him, she listened. Verosika gave genuine advice and recognized when Blitzø was taking it to heart.
I noticed she said his name right towards the end of their conversation. She always pronouced the "O" to piss him off. Maybe a good sign?
@@ArtsyShikigami I didn't even noticed that detail
Usually it takes me watch it two or three times to see and realize details like this. Again, it shows that Verosika is not really a bad person, just as we seen with others who were presented as such
Fizz, Asmodeus.
Don't take me wrong, not EVERY character need a redeeming story and some characters are simply good villans that we love to hate, like Stella or Vallentino. But showing character's other side makes us question preconcieved notions and think.
If someone bailed me out just after a love confession and put me in debt by buying frickin horse riding lessons (or anything at all, don't put other people in debt ffs) I'd be a little vindictive as well. In retrospect you kinda can't be mad at Verosika in Spring Break episode. The only thing I can really be angry at is her groupies assaulting Moxxie, that was messed up.
Blitzø finally sees what his self destructive tendencies and behavior has done and realizes people DID love him but he shut them out before it got serious. Verosika definitely cares about Blitzø and hopes he can change. I feel our boy needs some SERIOUS therapy.
While he is a jackass. Hating him to the point of throwing a literal party wishing on his death is literally psychotic, and a twisted way to take rejection.
He'd end up killing the therapist
He does. But it also sucks when, if you believe certain interpretations of each ring of Hell, therapy would be as exploitative as the medications they sell.
I agree. If you want to wallow and selfdestruct...it is kind of your choice and right
but dragging others into it and then basicly act like they don't matter, that was HIS FAULT and I don't plan to make excuses about it
Hey Collins, um, ya kinda copied my comment on the official episode :/
Verosika is over blitz, but she's not over what he did to her, what she faced. And that's why she's trying to show solidarity and provide a safe space for all the others he hurt. She's GREAT
‘I want to be someone’s someone’ hurts because Blitz wants that too! It’s why he’s so fixated on Millie and Moxies relationship. Blitz wants what they have, what Fizz and Oz have, he just doesn’t feel he deserves to have it 😢
"I don't think you meant to hurt me, 'cause I don't think it meant a thing at all" is such a hard but sad line. I think Blitzø was confused about what it meant to him. There's multiple instances where we can see that Blitzø actually does care about Stolas but he just doesn't believe that he could be cared for by Stolas. It started as pity, turned into earning his way to Earth because he doesn't believe that he simply deserves it, then it turned into a mix of both as well as actual emotion after Western Energy. Then some of the stuff Striker said got to his head and he started to believe that he was just a toy. I'm glad that he's starting to see what's wrong with himself but it's going to be a rocky journey. He's been responsible for so many tragedies in his life and it causes him to create more and lowers his opinion on himself. It's a cycle that's extremely hard to get out of and I know because I'm just like him.
Yeah, I feel a lot of Blitz's self-destructive energy on a personal level as well. You're right, you can change those patterns, it's hard, it hurts, and it's not always forward progress. It's SO easy to fall back into habits and defences that have WORKED for years, when you've spent your life in situations or surrounded by people that meant you had to navigate best you could. Maladaptive coping strategies exist because sometimes they're all we have available to us, and sometimes you're the only person who is protecting you. It doesn't make hurting people right, but you're not a bad person for surviving.
I'm still learning, and I'm not saying this to be a shitty inspirational post on youtube, or to excuse hurting others. I Iust saw your comment and it resonated, so I wanted to say "hey, I see you, keep making those changes, keep holding yourself to account, but... keep being gentle with yourself too" :)
Exist because there's always more to learn, and also because spite is sometimes the most satisfying "fuck you" to shitty things in your past :p May your drinks always be the correct temperature.
Please hear me when I say: you're making SO MUCH sense!
I've been longing, loooooonging for a Helluva Boss commentary channel to seriously discuss the class disparity issue, and how Stolas THINKS it's easy enough to disregard the vast difference in their social station because he has no experience or comprehension of what life is like as a "low class" demon.
When you were talking about it, I swear, man, I thought I might actually cry 🥹
And how they're BOTH coming from such screwed up, complicated backgrounds, how communication is so difficult for both of them, how they're both _trying_ to struggle through it, how they might be coming to understand themselves and each other a bit more. And ALSO yeah, they need to put in the work, they need to earn trust, they need to figure themselves AND each other out, and then they can be endgame. Because I too refuse to believe we live in a world where they aren't endgame.
I absolutely love how invested and enthusiastic you are, and how thorough you are in analyzing aspects of the characterization and storytelling and symbolism and themes and artwork, etc.
Like you, when I'm invested, I'm _deeply_ invested. Gotta pause and catch all the background details, gotta make sure to read all the text, gotta catch the little moments that are actually huge and meaningful. I love seeing that same energy!
This! Omni has to be my favorite reaction channel for this series, he’s so observant and empathy with all the characters
I like that the song said “dont touch the pretty things” just as blitz was about to put his hand on Stolas’ back when they were on the couch
Onm1media, I have seen plenty of great reactors to Helluva Boss and Hazbin Hotel, but I think you have the best media literacy I’ve ever seen! You truly get the complexities of Blitz and Stolas’ relationship! Which is more than I can say about the many haters out there. Keep up the good work!
Verosika was being nice when all she said was he bailed when she confessed. If I remember correctly her credit card was maxed out too😂
That was during the relationship I believe
@@Obsessed.Since_2010 oh I thought that would have ended it
@@Obsessed.Since_2010I think it could have been at the moment they ended it. If i remember correctly Verosika said that Blitz “ran off” with her credit card, so maybe he ran off after she said she loved him. Blitz has always been running from his problems and avoiding talking about feelings and stuff like that so it wouldn’t be surprising.
@@aaazzz8324 Thats pretty much what happened yeah. Its a big character flaw of Blitzo that he kinda seeks himself at the thought of a committed relationship as that means he can get hurt. I can see why hes scared of that but it did her Verosika a lot too and I get why shes angry. Shes 100% right that he can send a bad message in the worst way and that can really hurt people. An example of that is clear early in the episode were Blitz accidentally revealed that he knew Striker was trying to assassinate Stolas. While its likely that he genuinely thought Stolas wouldn't be threatened by that it still clearly hurt Stolas a lot that he didn't tell him and he didn't try to ask if he was okay once he got put into the hospital by Striker after getting tortured.
That does send a bad message unintentionally. We know Blitzo does care about Stolas and that it just didn't occur to him that he could get hurt that bad but Stolas doesn't see that (also he was trying to help Loona which he should of mentioned but he was fumbling his words bad). He just sees that Blitzo couldn't be bothered to come see if he was okay and that he knew about the assassin the whole time but thought that Stolas was untouchable instead of just a person that could get hurt.
These two are such trainwrecks, interesting trainwrecks at the least.
@WeaverOfStars yep
He goes a lot of trauma, and it's not hard to see how much he's struggling because of it and how it affects every relationship his has. I feel bad for him, but at the same time, I also understand why people are mad at him, as they have every right to be. He hurt so many people, no matter if it was intentional or not.
This episode shattered me. I don’t know what will happen with them, but hope this is part of their character development and brings them back together in later chapters. Love them together :(
Same, I love the thought of them being happy together.
Same here. This episode was sad, but a great one. Looking forward to seeing Blitzo trying to change for the better.
My dream is that Blitzø gives Stolas that rainy train station romcom moment. Blitzø still has a way to go so I don’t care if it’s not till season four, I want that for Stolas 👑🦉❤️😈
I think it only go better from now one. They’ve hit the very bottom of their relationship, its at its worst, but at the end of this episode Blitz says he wants to change and he actually leave the party and let Stolas have some space.
In the trailer for the next episodes of season 2, there’s a scene where Blitz is putting himself between Stolas and something dangerous off camera. We’re not done with their relationship yet
YES YOU GOT ON THIS IMMEDIATELY IM SO HAPPY AHHHH THANK YOUUUU (also don’t apologise for yapping, people come here to hear you yap)
Honestly, this episode broke me. I like it, but at the same time I absolutely hate it. I love Blitz so much, and while I'm happy he's able to see the major hurt he's caused people. It fucking stings me to see how hurt and how sad he is. I think what I hated the most was the fact that Blitz had to watch Stolas literally make out with that incubus like he's having the time of his life. The episode ends with Blitz, fucking so down low. Ugh, my heart breaks. I'm crying. I legit had to drink some alcohol after watching this episode.
Same, i genuinely want to hug Blitz right now 😭
But now all Blitz has to do is go up now that he reached bottom. And he's realised it. It's good, for both of them.
Sometimes, especially for Blitz, you have to break your heart more than ever and take accountability for how shitty you are in order to put yourself back together and heal properly
The thing that gets me the most is how many people are GENUINELY heartbroken about blitz at the party. Yeah you see a good amount of "we had a one night stand the bitch" but you also see a whole lot of people who look at so much of a picture of blitz and start to break down. The throwing knife guy, the girl sitting on the stairs, crying and drinking. Verosika herself. Blitz could very well be the best partner you could ever ask for if he didn't hate himself and ditch everyone.
Yeah, he's not a heartbreaker, he's THE heartbreaker. It's kind of shocking to see just how many people cared so much about him.
I dont know why Dennis is at the party blitz only only kissed Dennis once
This episode was very heartbreaking ngl, I really want Blitzø to change a bit and for him and Stolas to be happy together, it’s all I want
Same, I feel like it needs to happen for Blitz, so they can get their happy ever after 🥺❤️💜🦉
It'll come in time, I still believe ❤
This is a growing period for both of them
I've been saying this for a long time, I want them to work on their trauma and get better and have the happy gays
Also when you watch the episode with them at Ozzie's, when Stolas is called out by Ozzie and Fizz, Stolas hides behind the menu when he is called out, and Blitzo's reaction to that was to pull away from him more. That really solidifies to me that Blitzo thinks he is embarrassed by his being an Imp.
Been making the rounds while I process my thoughts, so here we go again:
- The first scene was a roller coaster in itself, as much a mix of steps forward and back as everything else in this episode. Both Blitzø and Stolas did _so_ much better at communicating with one another, and at correcting their own failings in the process -- Stolas was able to express his feelings clearly and stand up for his own boundaries, and even though it took a lot of pushing, Blitzø _actually _*_admitted_*_ to his self-loathing_ and copped to the fact that he's no good at talking things out... but then they both kept falling back into their self-defensive bad habits, Blitzø pushing when he should've backed off and Stolas backing off when he should've pushed, and things boomeranged _right_ back to where they started. It's true what they say: hurt people hurt people.
- The reveal of Martha and Miss Mayberry was thoroughly unexpected, but a welcome surprise. It might be risky to make paying a visit to IMP's targets a regular fixture of the after-mission routine, but hey, it could be a nice touch if they try it.
- Blitzø's repeated attempts to try to find the words to express how sorry he was to Stolas illustrate as clearly as anything how much Blitzø actually _does_ regret what he said and did. It's been discussed before that he's self-taught when it comes to writing, so drafting up apology texts is likely a challenge for him -- but he doesn't go through that kind of hassle for people who aren't worth it to him, and he clearly felt like he needed to do _more_ than just _write_ an apology. Blitzø's going to more trouble to make amends with Stolas than he's done for just about anyone else.
- As much as Stolas _really_ doesn't want to be around Blitzø for the time being (and understandably so, honestly), it's pretty clear from his visible discomfort at the overt animosity aimed at Blitzø at the party that _he doesn't _*_hate_*_ Blitzø._ He's _hurt,_ and he wants _space_ and the time to _heal,_ but it's not hard to see that he's still willing to let Blitzø _earn_ another chance.
- The costumes and decor at the party are chock-full of jokes and references. I have to give points for the Alex Brightman-inspired Beetlejuice costume, that was an excellent touch.
- Blitzø has probably _never_ had as clear a demonstration of how badly he's broken someone's heart as he got by being in the audience for Stolas's song. Stolas was absolutely speaking from the heart, broken as it is, sharing his feelings in a way that he's likely never been able to before -- keeping his eyes closed to keep his anxiety at bay, he was able to help Blitzø see clearly what he really meant to Stolas... and just how _severely_ his actions have messed up Stolas's headspace in a cycle of 'what-ifs' and self-blame. For the first time, Blitzø realized how much he'd fucked up, and it _hurt him._
- The liquor-soaked talk between Blitzø and Stolas was *_exactly_* the talk they _needed_ to have the other night, and while it _sucks_ that it's literally a day late and a dollar short, the fact that it was said is a *_major_* first step in both of their journeys to healing. And honestly, Blitzø made some _really good choices:_ he allowed Stolas space, let him take the high ground in the conversation, let him speak without interruption, recognized that Stolas was likely _not_ in the right space for physical contact when he was breaking down (which is *_HUGE,_* and something _so_ many people get wrong!), and when there wasn't anything left to say in the moment, _he let Stolas go._ He's _genuinely improved,_ even if he doesn't _realize_ it yet.
- Blitzø's talk with Verosika was the best way to cap off this episode. The party being a form of group therapy, Blitzø's admission that he _realizes_ he's screwed up, is _genuinely_ sorry for it and _wants_ to be better, Verosika giving him unironically good relationship advice despite everything he's put her through before giving him an 'eat your heart out' slice of cake and heading off to start a song about how, even if she's not over what happened between them, she's gotten over _him..._ as bittersweet as the ending was, it's a perfect denouement.
Part of my routine after these past few episodes, it seems, is to take a few hours taking the thoughts and feelings I jotted down during the episode and compiling them into these over-long analyses, then making the rounds of the reaction channels to get others' takes while I try to keep the conversation going. It's a bit scattered, but it helps me process, because _holy _*_hell_* has this season been a lot so far.
On your fourth point, even on their morning meeting it's clear Stolas was willing to talk if Blitz dropped the act and spoke honestly with him, like when Blitz gives his 'example apology'. At that point Stolas turns to face him, drops his stiff posture and has an open expression, waiting to hear if Blitz will continue being emotionally vulnerable and giving every indication he's willing to listen. When Blitz reverts to his usual anger, that's the point where Stolas turns his back and leaves, with an expression that suggests he feels foolish for even thinking Blitz could be genuine for once. That *was* Blitz's second chance and he completely blew it, which is probably what convinced Stolas to go to the party despite dismissing it as 'petty' earlier.
Once there, of course, Stolas is taken aback by the level of hostility and doesn't fit in with the rest of the exes. Having the opportunity to express his pain to a sympathetic audience was huge for him though - Stolas really doesn't have anyone in his life he can talk to, let alone anyone who would be supportive. The extreme negativity of the party along with Verosika and Tex's insistence it was *all* Blitz's fault also probably helped Stolas sort out his feelings. Saying it was all Blitz's fault obviously didn't feel right to him, even if it was cathartic in the moment, and his song shows him finally starting to have some (literal!) self-reflection on their relationship and how he ignored Blitz's signals even as he criticized Blitz for not picking up on his.
It did look like things were about to go south again right before the incubus interrupted though. Stolas had a hard angry expression as he wiped his tears away, like he was about to tell Blitz to go away again, and Blitz looked like he was about to speak sincerely to him, which could have gone very badly if Stolas reacted harshly or rejected him in that moment. It could have been a repeat of Blitz's 'apology' that morning, just in the opposite direction with Blitz being the one to storm out. Hopefully the next time they have this conversation Blitz will be able to try being sincere again and Stolas will be in a mindset to listen to him (and hopefully also not drunk out of his birdy little brain).
Loved that moment of Blitz giving Stolas the permission he sought to dance with someone else. Does Stolas *need* his permission? No. Does he *want* his permission? Yes. Also the little detail of drunk Stolas pulling Blitz's disguise over his face and sheltering him through the crowd was adorable. They do both still care about each other deeply, if only Blitz would let himself accept that. I also had to laugh at the fact the incubus who praises Stolas's singing, treats him sweetly and gently and then gives him the swept-off-his-talons romancing he craves *literally* has "Better Than Blitz" written on him! XD Are we sure he isn't actually Blitz's worst nightmare come to life?
@mgatwood42 What we've been seeing over the past two episodes is a couple who are discovering, perhaps _way_ later than they _should've,_ that they have _no goddamn idea_ how these 'relationship' things are supposed to _work._ It's clear that they still _want_ it to work, but don't have much of a framework to build off of, and they've each got a lifetime of emotional baggage that they simultaneously can't sort out alone and don't know how to help each other with yet.
They both still have growing to do, though they've made strides, and putting their relationship on hold might be the best move for right now. Blitzø is just now starting to recognize the impact he's had on those he's left in his wake, and we can see that he _regrets_ it, but he needs to take the time to figure out how he's going to be _better_ about that and learn how to let himself be vulnerable like he briefly was that morning (because you're 100% right, that would've been the _perfect_ opportunity if he'd let himself take it); and while Stolas clearly still wants to be part of Blitzø's life, he still doesn't seem to know what that would _mean_ on a practical level, and he's only just started acknowledging the effect that the difference in their status has been having on Blitzø (just because _Stolas_ doesn't care about it doesn't mean nobody _else_ does, but Stella's aggressive superiority complex has trained Stolas to see even _admitting_ the power difference _exists_ as a _bad_ thing).
It's definitely going to come to a head once Andrealphus's schemes enter the endgame. I've suspected for a while that he's aiming to co-opt the aspects of Stolas's Goetic domain that overlap with his own (Stolas has power over _astrology,_ while Andrealphus has _astronomy),_ using the divorce as leverage to get the rest of the family (or a majority, at least) behind his plan; while we don't know what will happen to Stolas's abilities if he's stripped of his position as a Prince and disowned by the Goetia family, it's reasonable to think he might be diminished to some extent, which would narrow the gap between Stolas and Blitzø and potentially give Blitzø another chance to play the hero by protecting Stolas from his half-brother; on top of that, Stolas would probably need a job to help support himself in the event that he's cut off from the royal coffers... and luckily for him, I recall a certain Imp telling him 25 years ago that, if Stolas applied at his dream business, he'd hire him.
14:42 the best part about this to me is that this was a head canon of mine since the first episode 😆
That’s some crazy pre-manifestation I tip my hat to you
Yeah, some people were imagining them as a crackship and it turned out canon, i find that really funny and cool.
I never thought of this myself but I recently watched a video ranking all kinds of HB ships and this was one of them. I laughed so hard at this
@@rinsana7304 thanks :)
I don't know what's sad, the episode itself or that episode 10 is coming out in october.
Both lol 😔
Don't remind me
We’re getting more shorts though!
Ehh, the wait for the last episode was atrocious. 4 months is nothing
@@tylere.8436 I think for some of us newbies to the fandom, it's pretty rough 😂 June to October is a long wait when we'll only get three episodes in three months
I don't want to be this way not forever.
Great to see that Blitz really wants to change for the better.
Also we have a 3 month gap until the next episode ghostfuckers.
But we'll be getting 3 more shorts and they'll fill up the gap they will be released in
July
August
September
Then the remaining episodes of season 2.
Ghostfuckers - October
Mastermind - November
Sinsmas - December
Damn, i forgot that there’s a 3 months gap now. Thank god there’s the shorts coming to fill up the gap (and also fanfics lol) cause I’m holding onto that show like it’s my only lifeline.
You've become one of my favorite reactors when it comes to this show. Keep doing what you're doing!
I love cleaning my house while listening to your thoughts about Helluva Boss lol 😅 it's so calming. You mention that nobody but us the audience know the real Blitz and his insecurities except maybe Fizz, and I wanted to point out Loona also has a pretty good idea. She's seen his pictures on the wall and she's heard him say he's going to die alone while drunk and crying. I think they're the only two characters who have the slightest idea about the depth of Blitz's trauma and self-hatred
I haven’t finished the video yet but I can’t stop thinking about the implication of Blitz calling the succubus that asked out Stolas “Bird stealer” implying that Stolas was HIS that he’s been taken away from him?? BCJSNS he’s so down bad for Stolas and he does not know how to genuinely start a relationship with someone that he loves ARGH
Liked immediately for what you said about the affects Buckzo had on Blitz and his messed up view of people, of the world, of relationships. You're the only commenter so far who caught on to it. Good stuff!
This episode made me so unbelievably sad. It’s so hard watching a character you love acknowledge the damage they’ve done and be absolutely crushed by it, so man this was a tough watch. Fantastic, but tough.
Yeah, it was heartbreaking and sad, but also very hopeful in a way. It’s the first step he took to become a better person. He didn’t realise (or at least he didn’t acknowledged) all the harm he’s caused until it was put up in his face, so this was probably necessary for him to finally understand that he needs to take that first step and start to change. I’m very hopeful. I really enjoyed this episode.
Something I noticed when I watched this episode is that the moment at 8:50 weirdly parallels a moment in The Circus where Blitz and Stolas first reunite. Back then, they were on Stolas' bed with the grimoire knocked to the floor - and Blitz's priority was the book, and any flirting on his end was done for the sake of that book. Now, he's purposefully knocking a book out of his way without a second glance all so he can devote more of his attention and energy towards Stolas (even if it's a little misguided)
As a side note! Don't be sorry for talking so extensively, that's why so many of us love watching your reaction!
ohh i understand it now. tbh I was wondering about why it was necessary to focus on a random book that blitzø pushed out of the way. Now it makes sense to me! thankss
i am glad i made it in time, 3 months till the next vid from H.B
Actually there will be a helluva short once per month till the next full episode.
My favourite shot from this episode is such a quick moment - when Blitzø is descending the staircase and sees the poor girl sitting on the stairs drinking and crying and he flinches, just driving it right home that he really did hurt her. Like that's the point of the party but it seemed like it really hit in that little nonverbal moment. Love it
MY MAN!!! Out here posting with PROMPTNESS. I love it!!! My poor lil imp boy is hurting 😢
I cried during this episode
Georgia and Danny mentions omL. I love Georgia’s videos and cosplays. I’m excited for her to examine the growth in this episode. Danny’s breakdown to examine Blitz’s character the other day was great.
I love your analysis so much. It's clear you truly UNDERSTAND these characters and their dynamic. Everything you say is straight up facts. Stolitz is so so complex and I love that so much
I didn't notice it the first time, but when Verosika was giving advice to Blitzo about Stolas, she called him Blitz and not Blitzo unlike how she usually does when hating him in front of everybody.
So something I noticed here that really sucks to me....
Blitz is telling Stolas that he is the only one that Blitz actually wanted to apologize to. Blitz told him that he wasn't understanding how Stolas could love him.
Stolas responded with he just wants someone to want him. Not that he wants Blitz but that he wants ANYONE to not make him feel alone. To make him feel wanted.
It was poor wording, drunen wording. But that had to hurt Blitz.
Especially after those words him picking just a random imp to make out with.
That must of solidified in Blitz eyes (after he finally opened up!) that hes EASY REPLACABLE. Any random dude can be in his place. Stolas will take ANYONE.
i dont think it was poor wording, it was the truth. Stolas knows Blitz isnt his "soulmate" and isnt the only one who can make him happy and feel loved as this is really never the case ever for anyone. soulmates arent a thing. What Stolas is stating here is that he NEEDS to feel like he is loved and he doesnt know if Blitz truly feels that way towards him and he isnt willing to wait around for Blitz to make up his mind and SAY IT. This man has been married for many years to a woman who never loved him, he's done with that crap as he should.
@@zacharyjackson1829 Yes, but up until just recently he has made no real show of wanting any of this from Blitz(not until the end of season one at least). And even then he never tried talking to blitz about it.
Heck his family BOUGHT Blitz at one point. My point is Stolas and Blitz are both attrocious at communication.
This episode broke me💔 I watched it an hour after it was put up, and I rewatched it twice. Blitz was finally sering the consiquences of his actions.. but i dont think it was entirely his fault either. He doesnt really understand love and neither does Stolas because of how shitty their lives have been. Im glad Blitz finally talked to Stolas though even if it was brief. I hope eventually they can work things out and be together. They need each other❤
Edit: Also I got here 14 minutes after this was posted, love your content man👍
Tex probably got a raise to sing background
Good for him, deserved !
I appreciate all the extra details this episode, specifically the costumes other demons were wearing at the party. There's Kill Bill, Freddy Krueger, Beetlejuice, and a couple dressed as Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy. Probably others i missed. Makes the Halloween party feel more legit to me. Great episode!
Really can't wait for the covers of both songs of this episode, total bangers, it's a shame we don't have an official Helluva Boss Soundtrack like Hazbin's
I was worried that the show would gloss over the fact that Stolas has, unintentionally so, played up the fact that he was an Imp, and, in Blitzø’s mind, perpetuating what he already thinks about their relationship. Thankfully, I don’t think that will happen, as Vivzie herself has said in Twitter posts and in the description of Apology Tour that Stolas being in his own head causes him to not be as self aware as he probably should be
9:10 DANNY MOTTA MENTIONED
IKR
Don't apologize for all the talking!! It's fun to hear your thought on what's going on, and it's awesome to see your genuine reactions and appreciation for the show.
Omn1Media I love your content. Never apologize for talking "so much". All of us fans are here to listen to what you have to say. I love your understanding of both sides of the relationship between Blitz and Stolas.
Give it up for Verosaka giving Blitz the time to talk and having a conversation with him and getting him to open up
HOW DID YOU GET THIS UP SO FAST- the episode dropped like four hours ago-
Verosika being the person who actually got through to Blitz finally was something that just delighted me on so many levels, from a storytelling "subverting tropes" level, to the character development level. *chef's kiss * She's been framed as a "bitch" since we first met her, but here we get to see that in a lot of ways her aggression mirrors Blitz own, it's all an act, a defence mechanism because the one time she let herself be vulnerable, she got hurt badly.
The way this show gives characters nuance, and allows the audience to see things in ambiguous or even contradictory ways, is so rare. It really gives us as an audience credit for having the emotional intelligencer to understand that very few things are EVER clear cut. Like, there ARE characters in the Hellverse who are unambiguously pieces of shit. Valentino slithers to mind. And Mammon. Crimson. But they're few and far between, the rest of them are, like real people, complicated. Even Striker and Verosika, who have been put firmly in antagonistic roles, aren't unsympathetic, and here Verosika shows Blitzo far more grace than he's earned.
I've been pretty solidly "team Blitzo" just because I tend to struggle to sympathise with people with Stolas' level of privilege and casual power. But Stolas IS a sweet birdie boy a lot of the time, and a LOT of his faults come from being oblivious to the framework he's a part of. He IS trying, and he is slowly starting to have his eyes opened to some of the larger things in play, and I do think he cares for Blitz. It's a beautifully messy, fucked up, complicated thing, full of nuance and contradictory things that exist at the same time. It's SO FUCKING GOOD. *gnaws on the entire show * I wish writers gave the audience this much space and credit more often because it makes the viewing experience so much richer. These characters live rent free in my brain and I've been thinking about them SO MUCH from every angle, like delicious sparkly magic for my brain.
[/waffling] POINT IS, Verosika is the standout for me in this episode. Blitz and Stolas are both just a fucking mess, I think we're going to need a bit more time for them to actually start working shit out properly (and by "working shit out" I genuinely do not know if they will, or SHOULD be together, I mean emotionally working out stuff instead of just reacting like a hurt creature, which is what all of THIS is. Verosika is the one in this episode providing the strangely balanced and focused lens, set a little ways back to let us view the wider picture.
Also, both songs are absolute BANGERS. I love Motherfucker (and Tex being there providing backup support for his boss is just funny af, and I love his voice.) but the final song is my favourite I think. The ability to distinguish between being "over someone" and Over the situation that someone caused" is one that it can be really hard to recognize, and I feel like the fact she has been able to move past/move on from being in love with Blitz, while still not excusing his shitty actions, is something Blitz should take cues from. She's clearly in a much healthier place than when we first meet her, when she was... well, acting like Blitz.
Wow I said I was wrapping this up and then ...didn't. Uuuuhhhhh... Sorrynotsorry? *Blitz grin *
NOW I'm done. Great reaction, I always enjoy your thoughts :)
Also yeah I saw Danny's video about Blitz too, very cool when people have the confidence to come back and say "I've thought about this and I have changed my opinion" especially on the internet. Much respect. It's so good that there are a lot of reactors who are engaging with the complicated layers of these characters in a thoughtful way. I hope Viv sees it and is proud of what she's creating!
EDIT: One more tiny thing, I meant to react to 34:03: it reminded me of something I read (I cannot remember where from, it might be just a common saying?) "The opposite of love isn't hate, it's apathy". and that really applies here. ALL of these people cared enough to be there, connecting over shared hurt. (I went on a google search but so many people have this attributed to them, and I'm pretty sure I heard it watching a ttrpg anyway, lol.)
SHIT one more thing. Stolas literally has only had two "relationships" in his whole life. He's working with incomplete information, because so far he had an arranged marriage lasting at LEAST 17 years of miserable or indifferent ohabitation (we don't know how long they were together before Ovtavia hatched, so I'm just saying at least the time she's been alive...wait you're right, you reminded me later, 25 years. OOPS), and then literally the first person who he falls into bed with awakens something in him and that's been it until now. When the succubus guy aks him to dance it's his first real indication that anyone might want him outside of arrangements. It's hard to believe you will ever be "someone's someone" when all you've had is the first two people to ever be put in front of you.
OKAY now I'm done for realsies. I promise this time. Sorry.
ALSO: Justice for Dennis!
Your pausing and talking is literally the reason why you're my favorite reactor 😭❤️
I love seeing Verosika and Blitzo talking to each other..
I really appreciate how much you discussed what is going on between these characters and broke down even just a portion of the big picture in the episodes. Its a nice recap and moment to process what we watched, especially because sometimes it helps catch things that might have been missed or a perspective that we the audience may not have thought of. Personally i enjoyed listening to the breakdown portion at the end of the video, so well done all the way around!
I hate how people say Stolas never tried to show anything more than physical sex till Ozzy's when the very reason why Blitzo turned around instead of just running away with the book during "Circus" was because he heard Stolas saying how much it meant to him to be wanted by someone he cared about aka "my first friend". Blitzo has known at least in some small way since the beginning that Stolas had feelings for him.
Beautiful "Thirsty Boy" mug x)
As others said, you pausing is not a problem, on the contrary, I SO prefer you pausing to speak rather than speaking over the episode and missing stuff.
I loved the episode, yes it hurts, but it was necessary, like Full Moon. From now on, I think it should only get better (hopefully!)
The fact that you hear Verosika's voice shaking when she gives a little explination about how they broke up really adds more emotion to how much she really loved him before he dumped her after she said I love you
I just noticed that you got blizøs necklace
I LOVE your breakdown of the situation- so many reactors don’t pay this close of attention and the fact you do makes these videos so fun to watch because it feels like im listening to a peer with a shared interest!
And I think that Verosika (and Tex, but he’s probably being paid to be here) trying to convince Stolas he did no wrong really speaks to how much she’s seen and experienced while hosting these parties- there probably are a lot of people who genuinely didn’t do wrong in their relationships with Blitz and yet still totally blame themselves. She totally assumes Stolas is one of those cases.
But even then, it’s healthier to take a step back and think about, so shooting those thoughts down is her offering a “feels good but could hurt you in the long run” solution to the situation. Not that I blame her. I think we’ve all been in that position in our lives. Sometimes a friend really does just need you to say “no. Fuck that guy.”
Love your reactions and had to see what you thought after the episode went up. Didn't notice it the first time either but the guy who asks Stolas to dance has a shirt that says 'Better than Blitzo' and it really is the icing on the cake for that scene. A stranger is able to make Stolas feel more wanted in that moment than Blitz can
What if he betrays stolas he can murder him
I watched this video all the way through, always so excited for your reviews at the end and you did not disappoint. Amazing as always, I love how you see both sides and talk in depth about both. It’s so fun to hear people agree with my own opinions as well as discovering new views I didn’t even pick up on before, very interesting as always. Thank you so much
Love that you're wearing the Blitz necklace!
Fiz and Ozzy met mostlikly because of Mammons Sex Robots.
And I have a theory that it was also connection to Fizz's prosthetics.
Thing is Stolas was clear but he was still holding the grimoire, which is exactly why Blitz kept thinking it's just an extension of his act. And Fizz calls Blitz out, but Fizz doesn't know about their deal. It's going to be interesting to see how Fizz is going to react when he learns the full truth about how Stolas' and Blitz's 'relationship' started
And blitz probally still lives with the guilt of starting the fire that took his mother's life and turned his sister against him.
YESSSSS NEW OMN1MEDIA VIDEO!!! Excited to watch :3
Can I just say that as a brand new Helluva Boss fan who was hungry for reaction content, watching your vids has been really something special. It feels so rare to find a channel I vibe with so much, and can really feel how invested you are both emotionally and with damn good analysis
Having to wait till October for the next one is gonna suck
At least we will get short episodes in between
Just wanna mention that I appreciate it alot that you are going out of your way to rewatch the show and make notes to make sure that your commentary is as insightful and factually correct as possible. I totally understand that reactors dont always have the time or energy to do that, but that also means that because of the releasing schedule they often forget about important details or mix it up.
So your extra effort is very, VERY appreciated. Thank you! ^^
"When have I ever looked down on you ?"
...
"My Impish little Plaything" - Stolas
Stolas doesn’t know those words hurt blitz
Stolas VA KILL All 2 U song was brilliant
Right? That song was amazing
Blitzø does actually belong at the “I hate Blitzø” party.
Bro, the way you accurately analyzed Blitz, so well. You would make a psychiatrist and therapist clap.
Who knew Stolas could sing a pop ballad? He usually sings grand musical numbers with soaring vocals.
I love your reaction videos!! I truly enjoy the way you are able to see and comprehend both their situations and feelings and why they act the way they do.
I feel like often times in this fandom and others people tend to choose sides or only see things from their favourite character's point of view perhaps because they relate to them more and are thus protective of them(witch is understandable) but I really wish more people tried to understand both sides and how they both have their mistakes and flaws but they're trying; cause you know, there's also the thing that we as the audience, know things that the characters don't. People blame them for not underestanding each others behavior when in reality this is the first time their really trying to communicate and they really don't know much about each other besides the complex relationship they had and thus are unable to recognize each others trauma response and defence mechanisms and end up accidentally triggering the others trauma
Also, another small comment, I love how when something emotional is happening on screen you can SEE IT on your face. You get that little crease between your eyebrows and your lips turn down. You look so concerned and sympathetic and it's a genuine balm on the emotion of the show.
this episode really hit hard. I was thinking past three weeks about how this may turn out, but I certainly didn't expect something like this. I somehow expected Blitzo to make a great performance with apology to Stolas as a centerpiece, and it was sort of completely opposite. shows that creators can really surprise.
Maybe Blizto really needed to be shown not told, how his behavior affacted others, to realize the truth
omn1, my guy!! i just want to say your reaction to s2e9 is by far my favorite. you giving the time and care to study the characters and understand them instead of just giving an initial reaction - i REALLY appreciate it!! because helluva boss is so nuanced that it deserves this kind of breakdown / analysis
that and it really really sucks right now to relate to blitzø. it’s been really easy for most people to see his faults vs the faults of stolas - so hearing you explain where *both* of them could do better was such a breath of fresh air. seriously dude, you dont know how much this means to me
im not mad at stolas or anything like that. my heart just bleeds very very deeply for blitzø 😭💔
Georgia Dow has amazing videos! The only reason I started watching Hazbin and Helluva was because she made a video about them. Now im obsessed
Blitzø really is the definition of "you can't love others before loving yourself first"
I appreciate that you go so much into Detail and give the Show the Attention it deserves. Love These analysations❤sorry if my English isn't perfect, I'm from Germany
If you were wondering hy tex was a backup singer with verosika its cuz he's her bodyguard so he goes where she gose
Great reaction and review!! Can’t wait to see this keep going!
I did hear that on the months that don’t have a full episode we will be getting a short. So there’s a short for July, August and September.
Thank you for talking lots at the end you helped me feel a bit better about this... Im not ok with this! Im super invested in these 2 aswell and this episode was so much harder then full moon 😢 I know they need to go through the hurt to grow and like you said for Blitz to heal but my heart went into my stomach after that succubus kissed Stolas I literally felt sick 💔🥺 however I also feel like if Stolas wasnt wasted that wouldnt have happened and like you said they were actually talking and in that split second just as Blitz is about to comfort him ahhh so frustrating Im so sad Im hoping one of the shorts will give us a glimpse into these 2 making there way back to each other 😢❤
I love that blitzo has stolas saved as stols in his phone they both have nicknames for each other 😭😭😭😭
Can we all stop and appreciate the DOPE blitz shirt! The necklace AND the “THIRSTY BOY” mug😂❤️
Yap away, good sir! You're one of the first reactions to this episode that I've heard break down the complexities of the relationship between Blitz and Stolas in this way, and it blew my mind. Really solidified some of the qualms I had in the episode, and helped me get a better understanding of the dynamic between the two. I hope we get a good episode analyzing and breaking down the parts Stolas had to play, so that way it's not all one-sided. Maybe a full Blitz song in Stolas' style? Anyways, I know who I plan to bounce back to once I've steeped in my episodes!
I adore your commentary - it makes me feel safe to know that I'm not the only one crying over this couple.
This episode gave us Blitzo hearing things that he needed to hear because for once he was forced to listen instead of fighting back. What needs to happen for the relationship to heal is for Stolas to hear what he needs to hear. Yes, he needs to know about Blitzo's trauma, but more important I think is that he learns that their relationship was literally transactional from the beginning. Stolas sees Blitzo as his first friend, but he hasn't internalized, if he knows at all, that Blitzo's dad sold him for that purpose.
I love your analysis on this relationship. A lot of people focus on the way that Blitz has denied every step that Stolas has tried to make, but you pointed out that the way Stolas acted in the beginning also played a part. Like how Stolas says "My impish little plaything." and calls him an "Itty bitty imp." Of course Blitz is going to feel like a toy and smaller by comparison when Stolas calls him things like this. They're both at fault for the rockiness of this relationship but I LOVE how this episode went. I think they both had incredible revelations this episode and I can't wait to see what happens moving forward.
I haven't even watched the video yet but i can already see the tears, stay strong omn1!!!
SAME I'm both avoiding and looking for spoilers, I don't think I'm powerful enough for this one
oops my bad, you meant the reaction not the episode 😂 i'm the only one stalling haha
When they were arguing at the start about blitz not bothering to save him from striker, if he said i was with my daughter when she needed me id like to think stolas would would take it back as he himself cares deeply for his daughter. But even him sending moxxie and millie it does show he wanted him saved as they are the best people he knew to do the job.
Blitz literally tells Stolas exactly what he's busy doing with Loona, and Stolas agrees with him that it's important, but he still wants Blitz to rescue him - during the phone call from the back of Striker's horse. And Stolas doesn't even realize he might actually be in danger until after Striker gets all menacing and crunches the phone. He was being a hypocrite expecting Blitz to know how serious the situation was.
Something to remember: Blitz asked Stolas to Ozzie's. He made the first move. He was using Stolas, but Stolas didn't know that.
The "everyone but you" line i took as blitz saying he can easily apologize without meaning it to everyone except stolas; because he cant do it he means the apology to stolas and he isnt ready to be vulnerable
Verosika literally went from someone who I couldn't give a sh*t about, to a new favourite of mine. She's not a dick, just another victim. Would be nice to see more of her as herself.
The eyes of a blitzy billy idol 😨😨
Im so happy you reacted to this so fast, i needed this. Great review of the ep!!!
3:16 I wonder if that was Verosika's way of saying to eat your heart out
When I tell you I was waiting for you reaction 🙌🏼 You watch your shows like I watch my shows.
I feel like Verosika understands that no one at that party hates blitz more than he hates himself
This is the episode we've needed for SOOOO long, I am SO satisfied by this!! It's about time we get more genuine and realistic with Stolas and Blitz!!
