Ah, I see you both have seen my favorite episode.
Excellent.
What are your non-spoiler thoughts of the back half of episode 6?
Neon Genesis Evangelion
(Bring tissues)
"He's trying to hypnotize him, but it's not working"
Yep. Val is a moth demon and moths have poor eyesight, so Vox has to talk him out of doing it like it's his own idea. He probably just tried to hypnosis him first out of habit.
You can actually see Vox's screen brighten when he says "VAL" to get his attention because moths are drawn to bright lights.
It’s the little details I love about this show 🤗
I don't think he was trying to hypnotize him though. I think he was just mad
"Stayed Gone" is such a fantastic song. It perfectly establishes Vox and Alastor's dynamic. The fact that Vox was so hot-headed and felt the need to assert dominance in the first place, while Alastor stays collected and nonchalant already suggests who's superior. But the way Alastor just casually tunes in, hits Vox back even harder, and completely airs out his dirty laundry just proves it. And then there's the end, with Alastor giving his own warning and showing his demon form. It's awesome, creepy, and lets us know for certain he's got a hidden agenda. And it's going to change everything. A perfect theatrical number.
And the way that the swing beats come in for Alastor's part is so cool!! I love how most of the "dueling musical numbers" involve shifts in instrumentation and genre to account for the power plays.
the ONLY problem with it is lyrically its a bit scuffed. more than a bit.
@@lazulazu2467yeah, but without actually thinking about it it’s like nothing is wrong. Definitely something to be worked on but doesn’t take away from the enjoyment much so it’s alright.
Here's a tip with Alastor: ignore the smile and watch his *eyes.* They will tell you everything you need to know about his feelings.
Edit: Something else to keep in mind. Based on how you're reacting to Valentino right now, be warned; Episode Four, "Masquerade," gets *intense.*
This! The smile is permanent so the animators take special care to show us his inner dialogue through his eyes
@SaiyanSerenityV The first moment it hit me that Alastor's smile is fake comes in the next episode when he meets Zestial. He looks visibly nervous.
@@FallenOne669 Yup! He also acts deliberately aloof to try and mess with Zestial but I don't think it worked as well as he wanted.
They’ve already reacted to episode 4 on their patreon and they did add a trigger warning at the beginning of the video
"Seeing Val, I feel like we're gonna hate this guy"
It's universal, he's designed and written to be hated on😂
Best character
Love him, he can serve up cunt while keeping himself pimping.
@@VoxiconVoxicolayes he’s just a little guy and I love him.
@@9TrixieTurner6 your reply is everything that is wrong with most fandoms
@@VoxiconVoxicolapeople enjoying characters? Wow that is terrible.
Imagine getting dissed on your own dissed track
I'm so glad Vivienne didn't go the obvious, overused story route of having Charlie believe Sir Pentious when he got caught and kicking out Angel Dust or whatever for the sake of drama. And you know the next episode would've been wasted with Angel trying to clear his name. I can't stand that misunderstanding trope.
@@DanGamingFan2406 Oh my god, word. I was so sure this was gonna happen and breathed a sigh of relief when Angel Dust immediately showed the camera to everyone.
Ya, that's the double-edged sword of Indi projects:
Only so many episodes to tell the story, so there is no time for overdone cliches.
i mean this aint an indi project lol it was literally picked up by a decently big studio
Instead she spent an episode setting up some kind of sabotage plot that did nothing.
@@thegreendragon5390Instead there's time to throw in pointless characters and scattered plots.
“Im glad we didn’t see that”
*sees it in the next musical number*
13:27 I love this shot. While it looks like Alastor is overwhelmed by Vox, most of the colour is Alastor's Reds, with only small splashes of Vox's Blues. Even if Vox and Alastor are equals, Vox spends so much of his energy on bombastic displays, while Alastor only uses what he needs to get his point across.
It’s actually a really interesting dynamic these two have, they really are two sides of the same coins with their insecurities and need for validation from those around them but keeping with the radio vs visual media it’s a lot more visible and apparent in vox. I am curious how they stack up now, vox beat Alastor last time but who knows what’s changed if anything has at all.
I timed it
It is literally “30seconds ago” when he says they’re developing angelic security
God I love attention to detail like that
Velvet thing is social media. She is basicaly Tik Tok demon.
Angel dust family were gangsters and having to pretend to be one brought back memories, he also uses drugs to cope with his own inadequacies
Fun fact: Angel dust's VA voices the eggbois as well
7:43 Val and Vox cancel each other out, Vox can't hypnotize Val because Vals eyesight is too shit for it to work, and Val cant control Vox through pheromones because Vox is a TV that doesnt breathe.
Alastor’s unfiltered laugh at the end there is so good
5:35, REMEMBER THE EYES! When a demon has a blackened eye like that, it means they are in a soul deal. That's why Dusty`s eyes are different.
12:35, just to be clear:
Vox is the TV Demon.
Velvet is a fashionista and the Social Medea Demon.
And Valintino is the ADULT Entertainment Demon.
I love how every song Alastor sings is just a revised version of what was sang earlier and also how all V's represent different aspects of how humanity can be influenced. Vox being cable, news media, Velvette being trendy social media, and Valentino being adult content.
It’s implied that val isn’t necessarily just sex work but by proxy is in charge of every worker there that isn’t directly tied to another V, I.e. everyone desperate, but that the other two actually handle the paperwork because val is actually fairly incompetent lol
everyday we getting closer and closer to episode 4... when that video airs im going to sob.
That's so real I'm really excited for there reaction!
Charlie has never experienced what its like to grow up human so the most she knows is bits on what a good human is meant to be or do and the flimsy reasons that get them in hell but not the in-between. Her heart is in the right place though.
I just love the dysfunctional family dynamic the main cast has. Charlie being the youngest sibling (ironic, since she's probably the oldest out of everyone), Vaggie and Angel being twins, her being the rational emo and him being the fun chaotic one, Alastor being the fun uncle bringing Husker and Nifty, him being the oldest, most responsible of the bunch and drinks cause he hates it, and Nifty being the chaos junkie that love it all. And now Pentious being the new friend that just wants to belong somewhere.
Can we maybe recast Charlie as not the sister? Because she and Vaggie do things sisters really ought not.
@@jimballard1186 step-sister then. They just have a very dysfunctional family dynamic that I find funny.
@@TheMadhatter1313 I'm cackling at this
Charlie has severally underestimated what rehab actually means. And she seems to have a very… black and white view on what to do to get into Heaven.
I love the little looks from Vaggie when Charlie is doing stuff. She adores her so much.
She’s was born and lived in hell for 200 years of her afterlife.
Of course she’s out of touch with rehab.
I love Montana's expressions through this, haha.
The way she reacted to the "put something inside them" line from Valentino, priceless. :'D
I do think the grand humbling of Alastor is one of my favorite things the show does especially after the set up we had from the pilot.
The punishment for them is that they can't die like normal humans, can't trust anyone cause someone could turn out to be murderer raphistt and stuff like that and most of the sinners are like this, they also have acid rain on which Alastor was talking about in episode 3, and they don't have a justice sistem, there's no cops or anything like that.
Hell does have a justice system. But it only affects Hellborn demons, which you would know if you had seen Helluva Boss.
So basically Hell is Tampa?
"I feel like this is Leslie Knope in hell." The creator of the show did say in an interview that Charlie's personality is based on Leslie Knope!
That definitely explains a lot.
I haven’t watched you guys since the arcane reactions and omg i’m so happy to see you guys are finally married!! I’m so glad you’re reacting to hazbin.
There’s this theory out there that Vox and Alastor actually used to be good friends many years go, but whatever happened 7 years ago aside from Alastor refusing to join Vox and the other Vees must have been something really bad that permanently strained their friendship. Going by how the song went with them both trying to one-up each other, I completely believe that theory.
P.S. I’ve seen all eight episodes and I gotta say that Stayed Gone is my favorite song in all of Season 1!
I feel like Vox had a crush but Alastor didn't give a shit
much longer than 7 years I'd wager, but yeah, he was definitely part of the media demons in some fashion.
Then again, I maintain alastor is probably legion (and is or will become envy...well, him or seviathan) and is an amalgamation of many MANY assimilated individuals, not just one, so that complicates things, there is a dominant personality, but that may not strictly be the one Vox was friends with.
I just love how Alastor just fries Vox at the end by default, because he/his face can’t be captured on screens.
You know the song is good when it’s the thumbnail of the video
The songs in “Hazbin Hotel” are a true marvel to behold, in so many different ways besides the animation and lyrics. Take “Stayed Gone” as an example. Not only does it establish the rivalry between Alastor and Vox, it also gives us a good look into their personalities just the way they’re singing their lyrics. Vox’s aggressive diss-track may give the impression that he has the upper-hand but you notice that he sounds nervous and really unsure of himself. A sharp contrast with Alastor whose every word just oozes with confidence despite his calmer demeanor. Ending the song with the radio demon using Vox’s opening lyrics against him to really drive home his superiority is just musical poetry and perfection! I can’t even imagine how the next three seasons will be cooking when it comes to gracing our ears with their impeccable songs.
Stayed Gone is in my opinion either the 1st or 2nd best song in Hazbin Hotel. And that is a HIGH BAR because many of them are fantastic. It blew me out of the water, dunked me in again, and blew me out ANOTHER time. (Let's pretend like I didn't describe waterboarding as positive now that I reread that.) It's so good I straight up tried to learn the piano parts for this song (wip) and it took me no time to try singing both parts. I wasn’t at all ready for a villain song THIS SOON. (Though I shouldn’t have been surprised. We’re in hell.)
The introduction of the Vee’s absolutely SENDS me, (they are just a hilarious bunch together) and anything Alistor does is beyond freaky but they also just let him 100% steal the show.
The other parts of the episode I was fine with but the villain dynamics are just OUTSTANDING.
Oh man… they hate Valentino now, but just wait til ep 4… I cannot wait to see how they react 😬
6:48 How am I just noticing that Kitty is a Robo-Fizz? Damn he's popular
23:52 i love Charlie's bed hair, it's so fluffy 😍
*coughs in knowledge of what’s coming*
You might like Helluva Boss too. Same universe and creator as Hazbin Hotel. Free on youtube. Currently on season 2. New episode at the end of this month.
13:50, ROUND ONE, goes to Alaster.
You know, for all his talk of professionalism and control, he REALLY went overboard as soon as he heard Alaster was back in town.
Pentagram City is basically the hellish version of NY City and is the biggest and most important city of the Pride Ring, being home almost exclusively to sinner demons, with Charlie being one of the few hellborn demons living there. Just like NY, Pentagram City is divided in different districts, each for each part of the pentagram: Uptown (upmost location where the hotel is located), Downtown (the center, where the Heaven embassy is located), Doomsday (the most chaotic part of the city), Cannibal Town (where the cannibals live), Industrial (where Carmilla lives) and Entertainment (where the Vees live). Pentagram City is also the biggest and most important city of the Pride Ring and is home almost exclusively to sinner demons, with Charlie being the only
Being in hell is punishment itself in this world. Sort of a "if you cant behave you cant go to heaven" kind of thing. So youre trapped in hell for eternity where you can only die by an angels hand locked in politics of contract overlords that make the world around them worse
But Charlie is setting out to show the possibility that people aren’t always straight out evil and have some regret and could become better if they decide they want to and be given the opportunity to get a better life.
The show’s main theme is about redemption while Helluva Boss, it’s sister spinoff, it’s main theme is about relationships.
@@Otisboy121 yes I know. I was answering the question of why there's no actual punishment that they asked
@@infiniteshay8660 and I was corroborating in what you said.
@@Otisboy121 sorry I thought you were answering my post like it was a question
@@infiniteshay8660 it’s Al right
i love it.
Vox goes all Alastor boooo, nobody cares. boooo i say!
While Alastor retorts with style and class and razamatazz.
Fi Fei Fo Fum
i smell the fear of a flat faced man
be he alive or be he dead,
i shall grind his bones to bake my bread.
love this show so much
10:29 i just realized this show is a play on the phrase corporate hell
Hell may look like just a darker version of Earth, but that doesn't mean it's not a torment to the sinners that are sent there. Sinner demons are (in a loose and black-and-white term) bad people who are confined to a single part of Hell (the Pride Ring) from where they cannot escape. This causes them to enter in conflicts, fighting and "killing" each other. As sinner demons can only be killed by angelic weapons, they always respawn painfully whenever they are torned apart. Not just that, but the fact demons can make deals to own souls shows how some demons can submit others to them.
Yes my ultimate best baby girl is here, I love you Valentino. God he’s such a shitty little moth and I love everything he does, the way he squeaks when he gets so wound up and how he was just bedazzling his gun what a little goober. The Vees are the best power throuple.
I love how every reactor I’ve watched all pronounce Alastor wrong. It’s hilarious. No diss, it’s just funny.
It goes to show how powerful Alastor is that he was able to disappear for a *long* time and still be able to inspire that much fear when he returned.
I cant sing stayed gone without alastor's meme: lets be gayyy😂
Hating Valentino is the greatest understatement of the century. I'm pretty sure the entire fandom wants that Moth-bastard double dead
they skipped my favorite part! "this isn't stupid! it is the game! Sir Pentious did it well so please try to do the same!"
I wouldn't be too hard on Charlie for putting Angel to play that role. She doesn't know anything about his problems and he's always wearing a mask of nonchalance around the others in the hotel.
She would've asked him, but he said himself that he's here just because of free rent, not for redemption.
He's not "struggling" with drug addiction either.
It's HELL. They are in HELL. He's HERE because of drugs and whoring and being a degenerate. Everyone Charlie wants to save is.
They mentioned briefly like the fire and brimstone kind of hell, but this seems like just a place people live. Like yeah, the punishment of Hell is EVERY shitty person from earth ends up there and by extension makes Hell a shitty place. Hell is where all the serial killers, the criminals, the people that want to torture people for entertainment go. The people that just don't give a shit about anyone else. Turns out when you shove everyone like that into one city, it's not great as a community.
Angel is only upset because Pentious is getting Charlie's admiration, rather than him being upset about the drug part. If anything he's complaining about how bad the script is.
Basically Angel's just jealous.
@@haku8135 Yes also considering angel kept saying he's not interested in redeeming himself but only because of free rent while pentious directly says he wants to be redeemed(which is fake at that time) and participates in her project with passion. I kinda understand why she favored pentious over angel tbh. And the fact that charlie has never experienced humans' life and has been probably sheltered also makes her hard to understand the concept of sin. However, charlie's kindness and forgiveness seems to work with sir pentious since he always wanted to be respected and acknowledged by someone.I think charlie's character development will be along the line of understanding sinners from their perspectives and she seems to acknowledge her mistakes and try to fix her problem so there's more possibility.
(sry i didn't know this will turn out to be essay.)
The punishment is everyone. In this iteration of hell some of the worst people are brought together and do horrible things to everyone else. A majority of the suffering in this hell is what they do to each other. If they werent mostly horrible people i figure things would be fine aside from the extermination every year. So much of hell you see people partying and such. I mean hell there even seems to be a currency system in hell..its all a self powered suffering machine.
Its also kind of funny in a fucked up way when you realize that the worse of a person you were in life the better time you have in this hell. Either it enables you to accumulate power easily and have the strength and will to fight for yourself or it straight up gives you a powerful form to start off.
Charlie clearly doesn't understand what redemption really means. However, her lessons actually help sinners to develop the bases and tools they need to actually find redemption. She teaches them notions like kindness, forgiveness, trust... that alone are not enough, but enables sinners with what they need to actually improve themselves and face their sins. Not just that, but the fact the hotel harbors different demons, it allows them to form bonds with one another.
Yeah yeah we all dislike the angels and the extermination.
But with Val it's on sight.
28:10
Now I get why a sweet girl like Charlie exists in Hell. She's filled with good intentions!
Alastor was gone for 7 years like charlie's mother
vox I'm totally over him I have a whole musical number about how much I hate him me for sure mate
Bojack Horseman, best adult animated series i ever watch, please give it a oportunity
Little tip for you! You can find out the time when demons died by how they speak.
Little spoiler: Alastor died in the 40s, Valentino is spanish and died probably in the 70s, Velvet is british and probably died in the XXI century
I think a thing with this series is Charlie doesn't really know what she's doing also so this is a learning experience for her as much as the others.
14:50 The three V's together run all of Hell's Television, Social Media and Porn Industry. The amount of souls they own or control together puts them on the level of an "Overlord" which you know from the next episode.
Basically any one of them only counts for 1/3rd of an Overlord and Alister is one of the strongest even by Overlord standards. Vox has no chance against him.
IT STARTS WITH SSSORRYYYYY
You do NOT want to look up a donkey show just know that it relates to angels work
In this episode Vox got completely played by Alastor but I wouldn't underestimate him. At the end of the day, it's his rage that blew up the whole electrical grid of the pentagram and the fact that he's in this position while Alastor is coming back from sabbatical is telling. I don't actually know if Vox is a more powerful demon than Alastor, but it's certainly possible. Alastor is better at concealing his emotions, but he was wrathful when he first saw Vox on this clip, his smile remained but his eyes were killers.
THIS IS MY FAV EPISODE
7:30, when it comes to weapons, generally, BIGGER, is ALWAYS better.
Respectless next episode 🎉🎉
Just a tiny bit of information: I know they represent Alastor as being the most powerful demon and blah blah but he is NOT, like not even BY FAR
He's just an overlord in the end of the day, so most of the princes and members of demon royal families (the Goetia family on top of all of them) are more powerful than him, not to mention Lucifer, the other Deadly sins "below" Lucifer (Asmodeus, Leviathan, Beelzebub, Mammom, Belphegor and Satan), and Charlie (that as the daughter of Lucifer and Lilith, two incredibly powerful demons, has an absurd potential)
Just for the record because I don't think it's ever really stated but as Lucifers Daughter, Charlie is technically far far more powerful than Alastor. The Hierachy should be smt like Lucifer, then Charlie and her Mom, then the Deadly Sins that rule over the seven rings of Hell (Hazbin takes place in Pride. Thats the only Ring Sinners get sent to), then Overlords like Alastor, Vox, Valentino etc and then Sinners
You are really sure you hate Val now? Without Spoil: That will get waaaaaaay more.^^
Please react to Amphibia, Kipo, Young Justice, or Vox Machina after Hazbin Hotel.
10:46
I had a hazbin hotel OC that was the book demon!
So a demon's true form is usually related to how they died, or lived. Still not sure on that. Also my own personal theory is that the X's on a demon's body is related to their fatal wound.
I think you'll appreciate this, but I always imagine "It Starts With Sorry" as Adora singing with Catra
Next you guys need to finish the disney channel trifecta. Which is amphibia!
This should be fun.
They originally wanted to have Mark Hamil to voice Vox
Vox always reminds me of will arnett, kinda surprised it's not him
YES! Love this one! 😆
Vox vs Alastor
Off topic from the video, but I'm hoping after Hazbin Hotel you guys will watch Amphibia!
Dont forget the free on TH-cam sister show helluva boss
Their comment about Fat Nuggets looking like Waddles is so funny if you know the ridiculous drama in this fandom😂 (do yourself a favor and don’t look into it)
Ohhh the bad boys are here.
is it only me or was s4 ep11 of korra removed from your channel?
Careful Kenny, mispronouncing Alastor's name, makes people in this fandom to go feral. Same thing happened to Danny Motta lol
Alistor is extremely dangerous.
Velvette’s mean 😂 ? That’s a first ..
You guys should do a reaction to addict
Man i hope you guys react to Helluva Boss or Murder Drones/Cliffside/TADC
I think you guys are reading to much into that deal between Alastor and Vaggie, they didnt even shake for that. It was a simple deal, he would help her with the commerical as long as she never asked him to do anything involving TV, he hates TV and all technology past 1930s.
Did you guys catch the “7 years” bit?
It just occurred to me that by the wording, Vox probably is more powerful than Alastor. *SPOILERS*!
Overlords get their power via influence. Currently, especially after his 7 year absence, TV is far more popular than Radio. And the wording “He almost beat you THAT time.” Altogether implies that Vox is stronger in raw power but Alastor is just tricker.
Definitely check out the addict music video if you haven't already
you guys HAVE to watch edgerunners when ur done with hazbin
Edgerunners episodes are already posting to Patreon now!! Coming to TH-cam later this month once solo leveling ends!
@@LettsReact LETS GO IVE BEEN ASKIGN FOR SO LONG 😭😭🙏❤️
There is a power structure in hell.
Top is Lucifer
2 is Charlie and Lilith
3 are the 7 Princes (each control one of the seven rings of hell based on the seven deadly sins (Lucifer is one as well))
4 Ares Goeita royalty
5 Overlord Mortal souls like Alastor and Vox
6 Regular mortal souls
7 Hellspawn like imps and hell hounds
Mortal souls get more powerful depending how many other mortal souls they own and control
and technically i think hellhounds are below imps, they seem to primarily be a servant class, at least looking at the two hellhounds we know well in Tex and Loona (and I don't think queen bee is technically a hellhound) .
@@bryanmoberg8408 I wasn't sure. From what I could find hell hounds are on par power wise with imps, succubus, etc. Loona was adopted and Tex is a body guard so they didn't seem lower. Status wise I don't know
Leeeeeet's begiiiiiiiin~
I hate Vox but his voice makes my knees weak.
Alastor the Radio Wendigo
Alaster is based on a Wendigo. A Native American spirit of HUNGER associated with CANABILISM!
Can you react to cardcaptor Sakura
