Here me out!

These are two individuals with low emotional maturity who entered into a transactional, codependent relationship solely for escapism and financial gain. And when they try to be more, they cause harm to everything and everyone around them.

They are not ‘destined’ for each other. Even if we really want them to be. And it hurts to say that out loud because it makes it real.

Friendship isn’t a bad thing. At least until they get their MULTITUDE of personal issues worked out…

This topic is mainly going to be on the last episode.
I am gonna butcher a lot of these names
People are actually insane. They are hating on Stolas when Blitzo did the exact same thing in earlier seasons. Stolas is depressed; he is genuinely tired of life. And that is when Blitzo finally wants to have an actual relationship. All through season one and season two, Stolas was begging and asking Blitzo to communicate his feelings and have a real relationship that was not just sexual. That was when Blitzo was like, "No" and went through a whole thing about that.

Now that Stolas has stopped begging Blitzo for attention and for an actual relationship commitment, Blitzo wants him. In seasons one and two, Blitzo was not only with Stolas, but he was also being with other people sexually while being with Stolas.

Fans are so mad about what Stolas did in the last episode. I can empathize with Blitzo because he genuinely is trying, but it is just too late. He is trying, but Stolas does not need that right now. I can also empathize with Stolas a lot because what he did is a trauma response, and I cannot blame him for it at all.

The part I am not getting is: how can people be mad at Stolas? At first, I looked at it and I was mad too. Then it took me about five minutes to realize that it is kind of hypocritical to be mad at Stolas when Blitzo was doing the exact same thing for no reason. At least behind Stolas's actions, he is genuinely depressed and really needs some kind of temporary comfort.

People don't have the comprehension to understand what was happening, or the maturity to even understand. And I'm not a "glazer". I'm not a big fan of Helluva Boss, but I do watch it. It's like people are actually so immature.

Look I don't think Stella is a bad character, is she a bad wife and parent yea but so is Stolas and dare I say Stolas is worse because he has more power and influence then her and I'm really starting to see that even more after Ep5. I don't like that Stolas never used his rank for anything he feels like a damsel in distress even though he is such a high goetia prince but for Stella every time I see her she looks kinda stuck and frustrated at Stolas because he's not doing anything and it looks like she has no real power even before she got married and it feels like she didn't even like Andrealphus before she got married.

"Stolas didn't really communicate to Blitzø how he was feeling before he decided to start seeing other people."

What the hell do you call this then?!

Ok I know I didn't put too much detail in title but holy shit stolas x vassago (stolago) is FUCKING PEAK!!! Like I know "aww poor blitz" but genuinely idgaf. In all seriousness tho after the newest episode I and my sibling both agree that this genuinely should be the main ship. Like it has so much more chemistry than stolitz and its not forced by sex. Like I know its kinda the point but genuinely... THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE SHOW! Vassago is climbing in charecter ranks for me and I think hes tied up there for first with Ozzie. Also their song was genuinely sooooo good. Anyways byeeeeee

Anyone else think that Stolas will either be kicked out by Blitz (to someone elses place) or will move out? With ep 3, I get the feeling they won't be able to live together anymore, especially considering how bad they both are at communication.

I had a lore too..

I'm just kidding lmao.

Let's see... child neglect, sexual trafficking, child endangerment, marrying off a minor, etc

Absolutely love the show!
It's Amazing!

but-

I'm on episode 3-4 of Helluva Boss and I can feel my insides turning inside out in-
"Oh my gosh, Would you just tell 'em HOW YOU FEEL?!" in the number of
choices, Stolas, Loona and especially Blitzo- DEAR HECK Blitzo-!

Spoilers:

Why would you casually invite Stolas, (The man clearly in love with you!) to a fancy place, just to make him the third wheel because you needed one-!

Long form shows like this have always been a struggle of mine. Since drama like this eats me up but its such a good show, And I want to see what happens next, Just the Anxiety is getting in the way of that, Ya know

So thought I'd do something the peeps in this show seem like their actually allergic too,
'Ask out right'

Peeps with Anxiety watching "Helluva Boss," Any tips on keeping it down while watching, Dood?

I might be the only one, but I ABSOLUTELY hate that Verosika and Wally Wackford are a couple and honestly hope that they separate in a future episode.

To be fair, there’s no legitimate reason why they shouldn’t be together and it was probably being hinted at for a while, but for some reason I hate this pairing. I think it may come from me being in the fandom so long and building up really strong headcanons that when I see something that might go against it throws me off.

For example I was really hoping for Verosika to be in a sapphic (wlw) relationship, as up until this new season I don’t think there were any in the main show (aside from Barbie and Kendra, but that was revealed in a short) or that I was hoping for Wally to be asexual.

Anyhow, this is just my opinion, I’m open to hearing what other people think!

Edit: Btw I don’t hate anyone who ships it, I just wanted to share my opinion. Also I will be transparent in saying that I’m a simp for Wally (yes, him) so that probably plays a part in my dislike.

Not sure how hot of a take this is but I am genuinely surprised to see nobody hating on this episode other than me. I’ll even go as far as to say this is my least favourite episode by a long shot.

My biggest complaint is that this feels like a Helluva Short more than the Princess and the Pupper. The concept of killing a shitty influencer is really interesting but all the jokes fell flat, and the ones that actually work just drag on forever until you don’t find it funny anymore. The “jokes” from JJ and his friends are so unbelievably unhumorous (coming from someone who doesn’t mind Chaz as a character and enjoyed Chaz’s Funeral). Take the song (I’m Sorry) as an example, when it first started I actually chuckled because I didn’t expect them to reference shitty YT apologies. Then the noise-pollution ass song starts playing and you just wish it had never actually played. I get every episode needs a song. But it just makes me wish they made this plot into a Helluva Short, because it’s just not a story that can be stretched into a full episode.

Another thing that really bugged me is how annoying Moxie and Blitzø were. I like to see them facing similar issues and arguing over whose situation is more important. But their dialogue when arguing is just so cringe and humourless. Instead of being like adults panicking over a bad situation, it’s more like two manchild crying over the tiniest thing. I love Moxie and Blitzø as much as everyone else, believe me, but they are just pathetic in this episode.

All that being said, there are some great elements to this episode. Stolas congratulating Millie is literally the cutest thing ever, the ending part when Blitzø and Stolas finally decided to “communicate” was a breathe of fresh air (although it became irrelevant after e3) and Loona’s self doubt plot line is something I’d like to see get explored. Which is what makes me even more upset to see these great scenes being placed in such a horrible episode.

As to why I said I dislike it more than e3. It’s mostly because of how irrelevant this episode felt. As controversial as e3 was, you can’t deny it heavily influenced the plot. Not only did e1 not really do that, but it also didn’t give any characters any more relevance and backstory (i love s3e2 soooo much). Because of this I can’t understand why nobody complains about this episode.

I still have quite a lot to say about this episode but I don’t really have the time to lay them all out. I’d like to hear others’ thoughts on this episode tho. (Be civil please)

I’m poor

Hi!

Last week, while watching Episode 3 with my boyfriend, we had to pause so he could explain the "traffic light system" to me—since I’m not really well-versed in this sort of thing, I hadn’t understood what the big red lizard meant 😅. When the song started and the strap tightened around Stolas’s neck, I immediately wondered: wait a second—if it gets too tight, won’t he end up suffocating, and then he wouldn’t be able to say "caramel" 😶?!

As the song went on and the restraints became more intense, Stolas ended up with a gag—a ball gag—in his mouth, and I got really worried about his ability to communicate. If the code is a spoken word, how is he supposed to say it with that in his mouth? And even if there’s an alternative, like clapping twice, how could he possibly do that while tied to the ceiling with his hands behind his back?

Can someone explain this to me? I couldn’t really enjoy the song because I was too preoccupied with whether Stolas’s consent was being respected in that scene. Did he accidentally go beyond his own limits?

Note: I’m not a prude when it comes to sex—please don’t judge me for my lack of knowledge! I’m just curious to understand how communication works during these kinds of BDSM practices. Thanks!

Enough about Stolas, we're not talking about the real problem 💔

Hellborns have red blood now suddenly. In episode 2 mostly I suppose, in Millie's flashback. They all just have red blood. I guess Hellborns don't have their silly black blood anymore? Maybe animation error, I don't even know.

Spoilers: Season 3, Episode 3.

**SPOILERS**

I am going to do a dive into everything that happened in season 3, episode 3, because it has been getting so much talk.

To start, I am not a huge fan of Helluva Boss; it is just not my cup of tea. But I do watch it, and I am not a hater. Let's talk about everything (and fair warning, I am going to butcher a lot of these names).

1. The art style and Stolas's appearance:
   I feel like the reason Stolas's appearance changed is simply that he is depressed. His mental health is not great, so his physical health reflects that. He might be under-eating; he is just going through a lot.
   
2. The relationship dynamics (the main part):
   Stolas did nothing wrong. Throughout all of season 1 and season 2, Stolas has been begging, craving, and wanting an actual relationship with Blitzø, and Blitzø did not want that. But now that Stolas is depressed and going through hell, that is when Blitzø suddenly wants a real relationship and wants to be close. To me, that seems really messed up and weird. I can't even put into words how I feel about what Blitzø is doing and the way he is trying to shape the situation around to reflect back to him.
   
3. The "Dirty Bird" BDSM backlash:
   People are hating on Stolas over the whole BDSM aspect of "Dirty Bird" (I think that is what it is called). Ever since episode 1, he has been into BDSM and a masochist to the core. How are you surprised? Did you not watch the same show I watched?
   
4. "Losing the plot":
   People are complaining that the show is losing the plot. First off, I don't think there actually is a rigid plot. It is an episodic storytelling adventure about Blitzø and Stolas's lives and relationship. It is not necessarily built around a set plotline, so it can't really lose something it never had.
   
5. Accusations of over-sexualizing Stolas:
   People saying they are over-sexualizing Stolas makes zero sense. They are not over-sexualizing him at all. That behavior is genuinely a trauma response to everything he is going through; he is just looking for temporary comfort.

If there is more, I will continue in the comments, because I only just finished the episodes.

What the actual fuck was that ending of episode 5 they are pulling this shit again after just having Blitzø and Stolas make up and say they wanna work things out in previous fucking episode! like it genuinely feels like they are fucking with the fans now doing shit to purposefully make us dislike Stolas and piss the fans off cause there is no reason for this shit.

Blitzø needs to fucking do something cause this is actually bullshit at this point

before anyone starts down voting me they have had Stolas multiple times tell Blitzø he's never been with anyone like this and says he hasn't felt like this with anyone else they literally made Stolas a liar and an asshole cause they said in episode 4 the literal previous episode they wanna work things out

They posted images today with striker and barbie what the fuck?

Spoilers for the season, obviously.

Episodes are being released in sets of two (besides the first bunch, but still technically the same premise).

Episode A: Oh, see? Blitz and Stolas love each other! They're so cute! Don't you wanna cuddle them?

Episode B: Doomed yaoi becomes more doomed.

Is this just how the entire season is gonna go? A constant cycle of getting so very close and then just throwing it all away? I understand the point of the show at this point is the emotional drama between these dumbasses, but I wish we could at least let it be a slow burn and makeup rather than constant supernovas every other episode.

We got 10 more episodes of this. 😭

Sú tu nejaký češi , slováci alebo proste fanúšikovia českého dabingu? Tešíte sa? Ja áno, a to tak veľmi že som sa o to s vami musela podeliť. Na Youtube na kanáli "dabing všeho druhu" je malá ukážka, a hoci je to len pár sekúnd, znie to naozaj dobre. A ja už teraz viem že to bude benger tak ako všetko čo Michael naspieva. Už som to hovorila v inom príspevku, ale češi pre Stolasa nemohli vybrať lepšieho dabéra.

Are there any Czechs, Slovaks, or just fans of the Czech dub here? Are you excited? Because I am, so much that I just had to share this with you. There's a little preview on YouTube on the channel "dabing všeho druhu", and even though it's only a few seconds long, it sounds really good. And I already know it's gonna be a banger, just like everything Michael sings. I've already said this in another post, but the Czechs couldn't have picked a better voice actor for Stolas.

His actions made blitz upset. But him having sex with other people would make blitz upset. There’s no way it wouldn’t. But Stolas wanted to blow off steam and go through his traumatized-person-sleeping-around phase, and that’s not a morally wrong thing to do if you’re single. Having unresolved trauma and having iffy coping mechanisms isn’t morally wrong. People are upset he gave away blitz’s address, sure, I’ll give you that, but that’s really the only “bad” thing he’s done here. Don’t know if any consequences will come out of giving blitz’s address out, but who knows.
I don’t see how stolas deserves to be hated for this. Let the middle aged gay man have his mid life crisis “slut phase” and we can feel bad for both him and Blitz.
Personally, I think it’s a great direction to take things. They weren’t going to be happily-ever-after THAT quickly.

Not only does it have the best drama, but it's also fucking hilarious. I laughed out loud so many times. They were on fire.

The episode was alright, but I feel like Helluva Boss focuses so heavily on the relationships between the characters that whenever it introduces an external conflict, it ends up being as shallow as possible. I get the point that Millie and Cassity had a toxic friendship, but I kept asking myself: why on earth would anyone be friends with Cassity in the first place?

Maybe I’m oversimplifying, but the character was so pathetic that I never understood how on hell Millie let that woman make so many decisions for her. It feels like whenever the writers create villains or antagonists for Helluva Boss, they end up being as shallow and one-dimensional as they can possibly be. They’re just "evil for the sake of being evil," and we, as the audience, are simply expected to hate them.

"Well, what about Fizz, Asmodeus, and Verosika?" I’d argue that you can’t really call them villains, since at no point did they ever pose a genuine threat or anything of the sort. Maybe I’m being a drag, but it would have been much more interesting if Cassity had at least been clever when it came to making plans—to compensate for how bad she was in a fight—and if Millie had felt close to her because of that. Then, perhaps, Cassity could have become overly arrogant due to her successes, leading her to devise a risky plan that resulted in what we saw.

I’m not saying this because I liked her character; I just think it would be more compelling than yet another "character number 3,472,891" who’s essentially just an asshole meant to be hated, existing solely to justify the beatdown they inevitably get from the main cast.
