Carmilla Carmine, Zestial & Vaggie Full Song "Whatever It Takes" Hazbin Hotel Season 1 Episode 3

[@e.c.sherman4749]

And this is why Carmilla is my favorite overlord. She didn't kill for power, she killed because she wanted to keep her daughters safe. She's smart enough to know that a war with Heaven could mean the end of Hell, but her daughters come first. She's such a fascinating character, I hope we see more of her!

I love these two Overlords. Carmilla is just a mother who did what she needed to do to keep her daughters safe. How can you not love a protective Mother?

You can see her expresion in the pilot she had enough of the exterminators for centuries. Shes just like Charlie she cares about Hell and everyone, but she broke the rules.

[@clemdarkangel]

I find it extremely interesting that of all the overlord, the 2 considered ancient are the most human. They are cautious, know when not to yield to their desires, they trust and support each other, their link going beyond the simple mutual interest that seems to link the 3Vs. That Carmilla chooses to hide a feat as impressive as the elimination of an exterminator (the natural enemy of sinners, enough to become a "hero" in hell and be feared and respected at least as much as Zestial) for fear of losing loved ones in a far from won war is very impressive.

[@drewlowe8312]

I’m so glad they gave the part of Carmilla to Broadway legend Daphne Rubin Vega

[@fedjamrndic4017]

​@@clemdarkangelme too, I think it might just be because they have been in hell longer than any of the other overlords. The Vees were only in hell for a few decades and even alastor hasn't been here for a full century. So since Carmilla and Zestial are older they had over a hundered years(maybe even more) to think about their actions and what kind of people they are and why they are in hell. I don't think they're seeking redemption but I do think they figured what were their sins and since they were already doomed they decided to just make the most of their afterlife as overlords

SHe's trying to say "Zestial please keep this secret for me." In a way that explains why it needs to be kept secret, regardless of who would harm them.

[@katesullivan4707]

I got that too. And it also seems a reasonable chance (if her daughters aren't twins) that Zestial might be one of their fathers after one night that they agreed went too far and never spoke about again but he is more or less how both kids think of as a favorite uncle if not dad. But also that this might be the weakest point in like Alistor's plans because the girls might be the only othet true born Hell children that Charlie might have if Heaven moves up its extermination like she fears as they seem to avoid the true born and also that Camilla might have acted when she didn't need to).

I love that Carmilla is not only protective of her daughters but also of Zestial as well. It really goes to show that they really trust each other and have a long history if he is considered part of her family. Zestial was even surprised to hear her say that when she looked at him and I genuinely think it's just sweet how big of a heart Carmilla has despite being an overlord who develops weapons. She even didn’t want to start a war with heaven because she knew the consequences would be many sinners throwing their lives away for a losing battle thanks to misplaced confidence.

[@AkoyaMacmac7281]

Yeah, shes definitely one to keep her guard up and act tough until she's around people she trusts. Then those walls come down showing how vulnerable she can really be. Like when Zestial asked her to tell, she did. When Vaggie came to her, she opened the door quickly and theatened to silence her forever if she didnt convince her other wise. And we all know she could have. She has the means and the motivation to keep the secret safe. But once Vaggie earned her trust and that she genuinely wanted to learn to protect the hotel,l and those in it, you could see the change in how Carmila interacted with Vaggie, she lets her guard down just before vaggie jumps over and gets new wings, you can see the shock in Carmilas face. Its a very interesting way to write a character.

[@nightmarearcade2663]

You know at first I kept finding it weird how a lot of overlords seemed to be rather chill and almost nice individuals from some of the interactions we've seen, but I think I get it. Most of them have been in hell for so long that they've probably just mellowed out over time, Zestial having been around the longest no doubt explains his polite behavior, he's seen it all and simply chilled out because of it.

[@SunlessSage]

It also makes sense, you're there for eternity. Might as well make it a bit more comfortable. Overlords being chill towards eachother means they don't have to be as paranoid. And a trigger-happy maniac won't get nearly as far as someone who can work with others towards mutual benefit.

[@saralovelace7219]

The ones we see at that meeting are also all the most powerful ones. They are all the kingpins of their own territories, yeah? And they all have a lot more to lose by infighting and more to gain by consolidating power and uniting against upstarts and new sinners who threaten their power. They're chill because they're the peak of the power dynamic. That's why the Vees are not nearly as chill. They're still fighting for a place at that big table. They may be the "new money", but this meeting was the "old money". I would imagine they act much differently around others that are not at their level.

[@Watcher8559]

It's easy to be chill when you are at the top of the mountain. Don't get it twisted. The horrid things you see Valentino do to Angel dust, ALL OF THEM are or have done the same things to others. It's why they are Top Dogs.

For all we know, Camilla may have the soul count she does because she defends and protects those under her influence rather than abuses them. Zestial may allow his to live normal afterlives, like a farmer tending a herd, until it's dinnertime. (He eats souls, I heard.)

There’s so much to unpack in this song, the fact that Zestiel bows to her as a mark of respect, her holding her daughters as she belts out her lines, the way she looks as Zestiel as she does so to show that even if there was a chance her daughters would get hurt she would never take the chance. What a scene!

[@abbers0737]

I’ve seen a few people say this now and I think it’s an interesting idea, I hope we get more info on exactly how she killed it. I’ve also heard people say that it might have been one of the Angelic Weapons introduced in Helluva Boss, which were named dropped as being produced by Carmela.

[@neutronalchemist3241]

During the past exterminations, demons collected many angelic weapons, and Carmilla markets items obtained with them (see the "Carmine-Crafted Blessing-Tipped Rifles" seen in Helluva Boss, the only ones in Hell able to kill sinners and high ranking demons). It's possible they are able to kill angels as well. That's why Velvet immediately pointed to her.

[@HoaTruong-km9rk]

Nah, you don't need special weapon or power to kill angel. Sinner and overlord just normaly didn't fight back. Overlords want to avoid war and normal sinners were too weak to win against a angel.

​@8eyes It's a weird sort of hypocrisy on Carmilla's part. She's a weapons dealer who has actively profited from the angelic weapons left after each extermination. Her weapons fuel the endless turf wars and killing of powerful overlords and demons. This seems kind of a weird line to draw, except she'd hardly be the first human to have a change of heart when confronted with the possibility of direct consequences of their previous actions.

[@benlevan5645]

Judging by Carmilla's reaction to Zestial's hand on her shoulder, I'm guessing that such an act is unheard of from him. For him to make such a gentle, concerned physical contact with her speaks volumes of how much he values her friendship as a person.

[@KAIJUKING123]

Well zestial is one of the oldest overlords in hell to date and the oldest current ruling overlord to date there were probably other overlords just as old as zestial but we’re quickly dispensed with by alastor. So he’s had a pretty long time to think things over and have valuable advice and wisdom. That and Carmilla’s the only one zestial can really trust and count on as a friend and ally and vice versa with Carmilla. But I bet zestial doesn’t show this soft side of his to often.

[@gregoryosbun4141]

This song hits very deep. She did what she did to protect her children, but also expresses fear if she told the truth. In real life, the truth goes both ways: for best or for worse. In this case, she fears the truth will be for the worse for everyone in Hell and lying doesnt help it either given what happened with a shorter time til the next Extermination Day. She only have very few people who really cares about her: her children and Zestial, and a potential war if the truth came out would be too much for her to the point that she'll lose everyone she cares the most.

[@saralovelace7219]

I also have a sneaking suspicion that some of that fear may be because she honestly doesn't know *how* she killed it. The leading theory seems to be that the only reason she was able to was because she was doing so to protect her daughters, out of love and selfless sense of protection. Many in Hell would not be able to harness that same power, even if she was able to articulate how she killed the Angel.

He's been nothing but nice or respectful to all the other overlords, even not stooping to Velvette's level when she practically insulted him directly in his face! it actually wouldn't be entirely too surprising if Zestial was actually the very first overlord to exist in hell. Thus knowing entirely what the consequences could be if everyone were to just suddenly rise against the angels in an abrupt manner without knowing exactly what can or can't harm the angels first.

[@coralcrown562]

The thing I love about this song is that even though it is Vaggie and Carmilla singing, it begins with the Oldest and Wisest Overlord offering an ear. The fact that Carmilla holds Zestiel in such high esteem that she's willing to be vulnerable and share her weakness (her daughters) with him shows how deep their bond and their trust runs. What's more, is it's clearly a very loving bond, and one Zestiel is not unaccustom to. As old as he is, he must have seen dozens of overlords, and friends, rise and fall so now he is willing to do "whatever it takes" to keep them safe, as shown by his caution in that meeting. EDIT: OMG Something I just noticed! The tea set Carmilla has on her desk matches the cup Zestiel used at the meeting. And there's only three cups on the desk, one for her and her two daughters. Is that like saying he always has a seat at her table?

[@xryeau_1760]

I still wonder if he has ulterior motives, as it seems to me like he respects power and those who aren't afraid of using it. He bowed to Carmilla while discussing the possibility that she was capable of killing an exorcist, and it also seemed like he was implicitly threatening Alastor when he was questioning Alastor's involvement in the Hazbin Hotel. It's entirely possible that he's simply just formed a bond with Carmilla though

@@xryeau_1760I don’t know. You would have to think that Zestial is stupid powerful, almost prince of sin levels even, if even Alastor respects him. I think he’s more reserved since he didn’t off Velvette on the spot for her brazen, yet popping display, when he very well could have

[@wilberwhateley7569]

There’s certainly merit to this, but on a pragmatic level her secret is already in jeopardy - Velvette has all but accused Carmilla of slaying the angel and suspicion abounds: she needs allies with her in case the worst happens - and in this case she made an ally of a trusted friend and partner-in-crime who likely has a lot of experience dealing with intrigue like this.

[@medd-lee]

I can't get over a duet between these two actressed. I almost cried. and missed the plot ngl I couldn't get over how fantastic Daphne is... then I realized who voices Vaggie... and holy shit... wow

[@saralovelace7219]

I can't even lie; hearing Daphne again after 25 years took me straight back to my senior year of high school and the emotional place that RENT left me in. I was crying even before the end of the song.

[@FinnSkidmore]

I loved Daphne in Rent, I am honestly glad to see her here.

[@medd-lee]

@FinnSkidmore she had to stop doing roles like this for awhile because Rent did a number on her voice iirc! but she's a total powerhouse and I'm so glad for more

[@saralovelace7219]

​@medd-lee RENT did a number on everyone's voice in the original cast. But Daphne and Adam and Idina definitely had the hardest vocal ranges to consistently sing healthily.

[@medd-lee]

@saralovelace7219 that's what I remembered yeah! thank you for helping me

[@thestruggler340]

The nuts thing is this song literally made me think deeply on the concept of hell, spending forever in a place without being able to redeem yourself is a crazy concept

[@ashlynwolff]

2:36 "Whatever we go through" harmonizing between Vaggie and Carmilla too perfect 💖 1:40 - 1:56 Vaggie's line foreshadowed the 6th episode

[@gavingaming5381]

She the nicest overload

After watching Episode 6, Vaggie's words such as "But there's so much I wished that I could say" hits even harder knowing through what she has went through

[@BLAZECALLER64]

Carmila's voice is incredible, and I would listen to this on loop more than willingly.❤

[@LeCaNiVideos]

So cool to have a duett work this good, without the participants knowing or singing to each other. So rare and genius!

[@andrewhinkle7961]

Carmilla's voice just hits home. I have a vocal/choral background and I'm trying to dissect it technically but it hits me in me heart regardless.

[@saralovelace7219]

Man, hearing Daphne Rubin-Vega singing again is making me emotional. Mimi forever.

[@DarkDreamsAndMoonlitNights]

I want to sing Vaggie’s part to my husband on our wedding day. I vow to be his armour. To make his dreams come true and to support him no matter what. He’s saved my life more than once. ❤

[@renthewizard]

Congrats 😊😊🙏

[@natasapateli1521]

Months passed and i still feel shivered everytime i hear this song, a mother struggling to keep her family safe in hell....gets me emotional each time ❤❤❤

[@razumnygerstein2448]

Listening to this again after the episode 6 reveals….vaggie’s lines make SO MUCH SENSE NOW

[@ScionStorm1]

Waiting for Carmilla to be revealed as another exorcist who abandoned her duty. Maybe even one that Vaggie knows personally.

[@zaxbitterzen2178]

This song legit sent shivers through me. Carmilla kicked me right in the feel's with those notes by the gods. Vestial and Carmilla together so briefly but you can feel how close they are.

[@whimsicalgolde]

I love how her daughters understood why she did not say anything in the meeting. This was a really sweet scene here with the song 🥲🥲

[@StoryDrop]

I don't know why, but this song was the most important thing to me.

[@VermillionStallion]

So even in Hell, a Mother is still a Mother, literally NOTHING could change that, not even Death itself apparently.

[@KAIJUKING123]

You can see the shock in Carmilla’s eyes as zestial puts his hand on her shoulder to provide comfort. This is probably one of the very few times zestial has ever shown kindness and sympathy towards a dear friend hence Carmilla being surprised. Remember as one of hells oldest living and most current ruling powerful overlords zestial has to set that nasty example to all to show who’s top dog and that you don’t wanna mess with me. But he shows this rare soft side of his in private because if anyone knew about his softness then other overlords and demons can easily over throw him as overlord thinking that he was to weak and hell needs a new nasty overlord ruling.

[@robertschmus9943]

Such a beautiful song. The emotion of fear and love of those the two characters love shed greatly. Honestly one of my new favorite songs. Not to mention that the arrangement reminds me of rock music from the late 90s and early 00s.

[@saralovelace7219]

I mean, they had to let Daphne Rubin-Vega shine. When you have the original Mimi from Rent singing for you, you give her rock.

[@DarkDreamsAndMoonlitNights]

Carmilla is also singing that she’ll keep Zestial safe. The way she defends him in Respectless as well shows how deep their friendship is. Maybe they’re a couple? I wouldn’t hate it.

[@YomiChan.]

Vaggie's voice has two sides: Vaggie's voice when singing: 😳✨😭🥰😍❤❤ Vaggie's voice when talking: 🗿

[@autumneagle]

Vaggie's voice when angry: 🌶

[@Velbsy]

WHEN SHE SAID ILL KEEP YOU SAFE AND LOOKED AT ZESTIAL AAAAGHHHHHH,,,

[@Kamirykun]

This song is fire, been hearing it on repeat for the last hour

[@ItsMr_Blank]

After this episode, zestial is now one of my favorite characters

[@CapyMartinBara]

If that ends up being the case that she could kill the Angel cuz she was doing it to protect her daughters, that might just end up making the Hazbin Hotel a massive danger zone for any angel. Should the hotel succeed in at least giving sinners empathy and selflessness they'll be able to slay angels that try to harm their friends/families who might also reside in said hotel too. I don't see Charlie succeeding in reforming anyone in 6 months, but I do see her at least creating the only place in hell where Demons can kill or push back exorcists, while other places, such as VVV would be absolutely destroyed cuz of their own selfish and prideful desire for expansion

[@greyworld6242]

Same here.

[@Somedumbassemokid]

Everytime Carmilla started to sing I’d tear up she has such a BEAUTIFUL and POWERFUL voice it makes me wanna cry

[@Suicidalcat-420]

"Mom could you sing that again but with all the words this time?" Carmilla:I would but,- Vaggie on the other side of the city: too busy plotting a defense!

[@Mr.G52]

Vaggie's line about being your armor makes sense now since the angels seemed unkillable to the demons

[@strwberrik1ll]

I love how Vaggie's voice gets higher when she sings, it fits her character sm 💗😭 Also this is def one of my most favorite Hazbin Hotel songs so far

[@Skullbane]

Never knew vaggie had such a high pitch voice when she sings till watching this

[@Naveen-js9dr]

This song goes really hard is a beautiful song i love it i like vaggies voice her voice is so pretty!

[@AvaBella_TD]

Vaggies voice is so sweet! It needs more attention!

[@Lottie-x2u]

I know right

[@LadyCanu]

I'm blown away by the talent these two have. Specially Carmine's VA. This is my favourite song so far and it lives rent free in my head.

[@saralovelace7219]

"rent-free". Ironic phrasing lmao. Camilla's VA is Daphne Rubin-Vega, the original Mimi in the Broadway show RENT in the late 90s.

[@itz_dahlia]

this made me tear up but I'm so obsessed with this song I've been singing this for days screaming in my room it's just to gooood

[@BenGTheSun]

I like how we got some scenes about 2 of the overlords mainly, Zestial and Carmilla and i'm super invested in both of their characters. Can't wait to find out more about the green spider boi. Also love how during the "keep you safe" line she's looking at Zestial, I wonder what kind of relationship they have.

[@Night-wolf-of-doom]

I’m also wondering what relationship they have plus if it romantic ill ship them full full 🛑

[@TeddyShark3]

Ive got 2 daughters 17 and 21 and this is our new favourite show! The lyrics are so heartfelt. Great harmonies.

[@dj_kringo]

I don't know how there aren't more people talking about this one, it's my favorite song in the show by FAR

[@smashy1806]

Vaggies part makes alot more sense now that we know she is an Angle 😢 also who cannot love carmilla this song is underrated ❤❤❤

[@Darkness_2012-g1v]

I always think that Carmilla was the only person in hell that doesn't always swear especially in her songs, that's why I like her

[@Jjh_6]

At 2:30 I got chills from the “And I” part Vaggie was singing and it does sound similar to that lyric line “Make up your mind” from that evanescence song “Call Me When You're Sober.” Honestly Vaggie has a sweet rocking voice and a total baddie. 🖤❤️

[@sbskiii]

Mine was the last part, “whatever it takes” I just love it sm, and it gives me the chills

[@AndreDW1983]

I love the thousand yard stare of unprocessed, fresh, trauma, transitioning into anger and hate, during the "when that... thing... attacked..." from Carmilla. The details and insights put into the animation and, in this case, lyrics, in this series is astounding.

[@SirToaster9330]

Zestial's singing voice sounds like a Preacher and I love it

[@KestralKuthule]

Personal headcanon, Zestial is actually really similar to either Carmilla's brother or the Cartel's second in command (I headcanon that Carmilla married into a cartel speciallising in weaponry after having a ballet career). She has strong platonic feelings towards him, but i also think Zestial helped her get established in hell and thereby protect her daughter's.(I think they arrived together after being killed by a rival gang)

[@HiddenSorrow15]

The best part of this is showing her humanity. She wasn’t bad . She loved deeply to the point that they were damned with her .

[@victoriamclennan8928]

2:41 I know iiiiiiiiiiiiiiii I’ll be you keeper I’ll be you armour whatever it takes

[@RemingtonVernon]

I'll make the mistakes (I'll make the mistakes) whatever it takes

[@AdamTheJaiden-er]

I don't know why but this song is really nostalgic for some reasons, It feels like I've heard something like this back in 2011 or 2013

[@PaoloRodas-vd8kx]

I love Vaggie's voice whens she sings

[@DarkDreamsAndMoonlitNights]

Vaggie is such a great girlfriend. She has her doubts about the hotel but fully supports her girlfriend in her hopes and dreams despite this. ❤

[@nguyentobaokhanh54]

"..at a brand new place" now we know what she was talking about

[@HoneyTheCat]

The most underrated song of the show.

[@11212ilovemovieswaytomuch]

Frfrfr

[@animesoundaffects5915]

1:36 After seeing the most recent episode this part brakes my heart even more 😢

[@AlastorNahIdWinRadioDemon]

This somg actually gets better after seeing episode 7 and seeing the two characters singing it meeting, plus the song that happens there.

[@AriaGrill]

Honestly she's the best version of 'bad person, good parent' and hope she becomes the standard for that character type. Can't even imagine what it's like to know your daughters are in hell with you and you created the problem that could kill them so you do whatever you can to protect them

[@ruth2023]

I love how Carmine looks at Zestial at the part "I'll keep you safe," and he totally misses she is including him in those she has to love and protect lol. Too cute.

[@jamesstone6582]

It was probably the funniest fucking thing to me this year so far when the egg guy recaps: "so that guy told the lady, 'you killed the angel,' and she's like 'uh whatever it takes'"

[@Potato_Tomato-od2lz]

Good old camero carfight’s singing

[@_lLexa_l]

I can't stop thinking about Frank's "And then she was all like 'wHaTeVeR iT tAkEsSS~'"

[@g-dashgaming4904]

Man, I love Carmilla’s face at 0:18, every time I rewatch this video I see a new detail, She looks so worried, like she wants to tell them the truth, but she’s worried it will end up hurting them more.

[@RoseWagner-wi2wz]

This song is so freaking good! It gave me goosebumps

[@KestralKuthule]

Interesting fact about Carmilla's daughter there named Oddette and Clara. Both are also the first names of female ballet protagonists who are transformed by an evil entity. Odette being the Swan princess of Swan Lake and Clara the protagonist of the Nutcracker. Makes me think that maybe Carmilla was a retired ballerina who may have married a mob boss or cartel leader. I will say i think she didn't realise who she married until she was pregnant though.

[@mythicalmadness3511]

Holy fuck, the chills mamacita carmine is giving off, I love it
