    The fact that Belos killed his own brother and revived him only as a means to serve him over and over again shows how hypocritical he is when claiming witches are evil when stuff like this is 1000 times worse than anyone could do. His “quest” to defend humanity ultimately cost him his own humanity and left him as a monster

      That’s why I see Philip and Belos as two separate beings
      Philip Wittabane was a man who wanted to be a hero in a world vest left in today’s history books
      Belos is a monster that embodies all of Philip’s own evil
      Philip died the very moment Belos killed his only friend, only remaining family, his care taker, his older brother Caleb Wittabane

      Actually I agree because they appear to have the same features as Belos in some images but if clones that would mean he at one point as an villain engaged in some ancient cloning process, but the clones weren’t as evil or as smart as him as an villain…?!??

    It's a real shame we never got a full third season. We could have had a bit where Hunter formed a spiritual connection with the previous Golden Guards and Caleb, which could have been very interesting and dove more into their backstories. We could have seen Evelyn and really had some nice character moments.

      It would have been awesome (yet depressing) if Hunter appeared in the in-between, when he tried to drown Belos, before Flapjack brought him back. That would have been an excellent moment for Hunter to meet Caleb and the other grimwalkers. And then it ends with Flapjack landing on his shoulder, showing how,"he already knew."

This program is so extensive and invasive that even if Hunter sides with the Witches, the program will control him to carry out Belo's/ Philip's mission in the event of the latter's death. Even now, Hunter doesn't realize that he has compromised the Palismans that he has painstakingly created and gifted to a good majority of the Witch population to this day. Even in death, Belos/Philips is dedicated to causing the Boiling Isles residents as much suffering as possible.

So you could say he wanted the humans to suffer the same fate after what Belos did to demon realm.

    This video is weirdly unsettling. (Not a bad thing because I dig it!)
    For me it's the unsettling ambience combined with the golden guards' somber faces....
    Anorher disturbing thing I found were some golden guards' descriptions.
    For example:
    "Guard 27:
    Killed during a failed prisonbreak from the conformatorium"
    "Guard 13:
    Drowned."
    First of all: all descriptions begin with a word tying to death. Like death was their beginning and their end
    Secondly: it's brutal how some, much like guard 27, have detailed descriptions while someone like guard 13 don't.
    Thirdly: I love how they're all just called guard __, it gives off the sense that they were all just numbers to belos but also that being the golden guard was all they knew.
    Fourthly: having Caleb front and centre was a BRILLIANT choice considering that it conveys how he was the source of their beginnings... Yet also their ends...
    Might I be spewing crap? Yes. But do I love how morbid some details are? YES!
    The art as well is gorgeous and the editing is brilliant!
    I'm glad i found this :D

      Guard 13 is particular, since the water in the Boiling Isles is boiling, acidic, to "drown" you need a container of normal water, a container filled by someone... perhaps Philip surprised him in the bathtub and kept him under the surface of the water until the bubbles stopped...
      Now some context!
      Then guard 6= Belos: "That was an accident! A strange object came from the human world, how could I know that when used it would throw flames!"
      Guard 22= Belos: "I thought I'd just whip him... but then I thought the next one would be better"
      Guard 19= Belos: "That time the grimwalker did everything by itself... no one pushed him or anything, it was his conscious choice... weird"
      Claeb= Belos: "He slipped 37 times on my knife"

    I'm curious about the golden guard before Hunter, who was Darius's mentor and friend. Cause Darius held him in high regard of admiration and respect. According to that memory in the fake hall of memories, Darius looked sad at Hunter's promotion as the golden guard, and Hunter wondered why he looked sad.
