Comfy Cannibal Dance Number | Hazbin Hotel Reaction

[@harleyronco6021]

The "Ace In The Hole" line was a nod to Alastor canonically being aro/ace (Asexual & Aromantic). However, Alastor didn't get the joke as he died in the early 1930's when those classifications of sexuality didn't exist.

[@Airier]

That makes sense. Although now I'm wondering how Rosie knew it since she seemed like she was there longer than Alistor (based on the Victoria clothes).

[@xenodragon6564]

Yeah as he’s not a fan of touching unless it’s from those close to him or he initiates it

[@TriEdge7274]

There's a theory going around that Alastor detests men, but has no problem with women. We've never seen him hard a woman (outside the overlords where there was something to gain). How he treats Charlie, Nifty, Mimzie, Rosie, etc. and compare this to how he behaves with Lucifer, Husker, Vox, etc. I believe it's rumored he was a momma's boy in life and was severely beaten by his father.

In her song, Charlie started by making the call to defend their people, then talked about travel, and camaraderie. Basically, she's using all the strategies used in military TV ads trying to encourage people to enlist.

[@Iezepies]

Damn, we get some military ads here (I'm Dutch) but none that follow most of this formula. They mostly have one overused slogan they really like. But that is so interesting, wonder where Charlie picked that up. Also, I guess the cannibals only came around when they were promised a feast of angel meat, not really for any of the other reasons. Does that suggest most people enlist just to experience the bloodshed of it all? Bleak!

[@CorwinTheOneAndOnly]

It's cool how early you noticed Alastor's demeanor change the instant Rosie was around. Yeah she's 100% his comfort person, perhaps the only person that he truly likes to be around. When she went over not just to forcefully hug him, but pick him up and spin him around and basically manhandle him, which normally he would *absolutely hate,* he instead seemed to be genuinely happy, and the sound effect that played was the noise that a baby deer makes when it is very happy. This entire sequence was also the only time we see Alastor *actively take a back seat as a side character* to not just one, but two whole characters, something he has never once done in the entirety of the show. Alastor's entire complex is that he despises being a side character. His duet portion of the song with Rosie is also the only time he's ever done a duet, and not just a duet, but a duet in the background of the main theme. And, near the end of the song, when singing about Charlie's potential and power, Alastor lost focus and started staring at Charlie with those possessive, manipulative, Alastor eyes of his, and Rosie immediately yoinked him out of it back into the song, as if to say "Down boy, one thing at a time", and not only did he let her do it, but he seemed extremely happy to be back into the song with Rosie. Rosie clearly keeps him calm, and dare I say, mentally stable. Quite wholesome. Apparently they canonically have tea parties on the weekends usually, until he disappeared.

[@DoctorOaks]

He did seem to genuinely like Mimzy, but he's also not willing to let her mess up whatever he has planned. To the point that he's willing to push her away to protect his plans. I wonder how he'd act if Rosie put herself in the way of his plans.

[@sebbescott]

[@downbeatdialga1341]

24:50 before the “reveal” of Vaggie being a former exorcist in episode 6, for as much as I wanted to believe the theory, I had my reservations. The biggest one was why was Vaggie’s hair so long? I say this, because it’s customary for most soldiers to have to keep their hair as short as possible, so it doesn’t impede their performance. So then, why would Vaggie-a presumed exorcist-have long hair that would affect her combat performance? She even complained to Carmilla, “I’m not use to fighting with long hair,” so she knows her technique has suffered with it being that long. But then I came to the conclusion, I think she grew it out to cope with no longer having her wings. Her hair’s length is about as long as her former wingspan. There was also the part where Vaggie sang in “Whatever it Takes” in episode 3, she went up to the ship on the roof of the hotel. My guess is since she could no longer fly, it was the closest substitute for getting to still be that high up. These small behaviors show how she clings to the past. I’m glad she reclaimed her wings though. I did think it was funny though, after she says that about her hair, Carmilla throws shade at her when she proceeds to let her hair down, basically telling Vaggie “that’s no excuse, I can do it just fine” 💀

[@redballoon9007]

I also think her growing out her hair was because she was convinced by Charlie that she didn’t need to fight anymore and so she didn’t need to cut her hair.

[@felixhenson9926]

She might just want to break from her past tbh, she has no need to keep it short anymore and she probably wants nothing to do with the traditional behaviours of exorcists. Obviously she does still have some mannerisms like reaching for drill training in the 3rd ep but it's easier to change your hair than your personality or past.

[@willw6504]

After episode 3, given their similar skin color, hair color, character designs, Vaggie's angelic spear matching the ones Carmilla's daughters had in the pilot, and duet from episode 3, I assumed that Vaggie was another one of Carmilla's daughters. After episode 6, my theory is that Carmilla is also a fallen angel - an older one, not as old as the Sins, but maybe around the time when Zestial died, hence their friendship. Which would explain her having daughters in hell since Sinners can't reproduce.

[@joshridinger3407]

long hair might have also been her way of claiming individuality and freedom. it's not unknown for vets to do that, especially those who disagree with the wars they fought in, or otherwise resent the government.

Back in episode 5 you were wondering why Alastor hates Lucifer so much In cannibal town, Alastor says in the song “she’s filled with potential that I can guide” We have no idea what Alastor is really after, but whatever his plan is, Charlie is at the center of it. Lucifer is confirmed to be more powerful than Alastor, so having Lucifer getting close to Charlie again threatens his plan, not only because Lucifer can defeat him in a fight, but also because Lucifer has that emotional connection with Charlie and he’ll keep her from falling down the wrong path

[@Airier]

That makes sense. I wonder what his final plan is, or if it really is to get in good with the next leader. 🤔

[@paigemld8181]

​@@Airiermy interpretation (thus far) is that Alastor sees Lucifer as an irresponsible buffoon. He may not believe that a damned soul can be redeemed, but he does believe Charlie has the chops to be a worthy ruler. With his help of course.

[@p3chv0gel22]

I'd say he likes to see people fail And if the hotel fails completely, there won't be people willi g to even try. So he would be more on the line of "If i help them a bit, i'll have fun for years to come" And he propably wants influence on Charlie+daughter of Lucifer and all)

[@TriEdge7274]

I think that's a ruse. My theory is that he's at the hotel at the request of Lilith to shape Charlie into a proper ruler of hell - Lilith not being impressed with the mopey and depressed Lucifer (probably why she left him). And they kind of hint at this in the song "Ready for This" [ROSIE & ALASTOR] She's bound to pass the test as princess of Hell Like her daddy, she is madly power-fell [ALASTOR] She's filled with potential that I could guide [ROSIE] I concur! [ROSIE & ALASTOR] Stick with her, you'll be on the winning side Alastor's purpose seems to center around Charlie, and he's managed to get an I.O.U. in a deal with her. It just seems odd that Alastor is there for "entertainment" in watching sinners fail to improve when there's only ONE guest - AngelDust.

In episode 2, when Sir Pentious returns the scrap of cloth he stole he stole, Alastor responds with a dirty joke. "Not many people have been able to get even this much off of me."

8:00 "Heavens, no" might just be Hell's version of "Hell, no". XD Okay, I doubt it, but it would make sense.

[@H0r53f7y]

Considering in Helluva Boss there's expressions like "The heaven's wrong with this thing?!", it's not impossible

[@LiMe251]

It's also a phrase used irl, too.

[@darkwhispersstories47]

To be fair the "harming no one" is much more restricting than people believe Charlie herself counts in that "No one" so she can't do anything that can result in her own harm, on top of that if removing the deal harms the person on the other side or Alastor gets harmed as well by the sudden removal of the contract he has then Charlie can't help him there either. Because is such a vague and loose wording it restricts immensely the amount of utility Alastor can get out of this deal and the idea of him endangering Vaggie or someone else with him then using the deal to stop her from helping doesn't hold much utility either because if she doesn't intervene to save the person that person will get harmed thus breaking the terms of the deal

[@SavagePassion666]

The vagueness of the deal is something I think is going to be a plot point. Either Alastor or Charlie can use it to their advantage it just depends on who has the chops to utilize it first.

I think one of the reasons why Cannibal Town was so cohesive is because there were entire societies and tribes where cannibalism was simply a part of their culture. You have outliers like Alastor, who became a cannibal in life after he made a deal with an Eldritch (?) being, or even Hannibal Lector (who Alastor reminds me of). Hell, even people who became cannibals because there was NOTHING left to eat (the survivors of the whaling ship that Moby Dick was inspired by, and the airplane crash where the survivors ate each other) would probably trauma bond. I think the tribal part shows in that the cannibals here all have a similar design to one another, unlike the wide varieties we've seen in other locations. They're also ironically the most "human" looking beings.

Alastor (and also Rosie) seems to be purposefully putting Charlie into a leadership role and train her to be the the leader hell does not have. Like despite saying he wants to watch the hotel fail miserably, I think Alastor used it as a mean to motivate and train Charlie to grow into a leader.

Alastor is confirmed to be ace and theorized to also be aro, hence the 'ace in the hole' joke. Alastor and Rosie are unironically besties and have known each other for a while. So yeah, they do like and probably really trust each other, which is why Rosie says he never did her wrong in deals/favors and also why Alastor doesn't get annyed by her teasing. It's also why Alastor flatters her so much, though it could be argued that Rosie is terrifying for having established a true unity among her people (the cannibals) to the point that they are either all in together, or none of them would participate.

And the thing is carmilla also sold striker his weapons!

[@kraaiwaker8312]

Gonna be honest, I have absolutely no experience with how the youtube copyright system or any of that works, but I felt compelled to let you know if you didn't already that part of the intro wasn't cut out and shows what seems to be pirating website but maybe I'm mistaken. Just don't want you to get into trouble incase for some reason some amazon person sees this and makes a fuss about "advertising piracy" or something and give you issues on your end. Hope your day is going well tho! Excited to watch this reaction!

Rosie saying Alastor is an ace in the hole means that he is both aromantic and asexual

cannibals are my type of people.

[@SilverScribe85]

Not to mention that Cannibal-Town looks like a nice place to live...provided that you stick with their 1900-1920s aesthetic. I read a theory that if you come into that town with modern clothes on, the cannibals will (literally) eat you alive

[@KingZolem]

"A favor where you DON'T HURT ANYONE" is the part of that I fixate on. Because him having Charlie fulfill her promise by preventing her from fighting someone. Such as not fighting against Lute when she next tries to kill Vaggi for example.

[@heavenlydemon5994]

Alastor is always trying to accomplish more than one goal at a time. He is helping Charlie, getting her indebted to him, and testing her to see if she is worth his time and effort all at once.

[@DarcOne13]

I never thought Alastor's radio voice coincided with how fake he was being. That's brilliant!

[@adriankuban2904]

Vaggie Motha and her new wings. Similar things with wings has happened in life action Lucifer serial when angel come true some mental "redemption". Razzle and Dazzle are like Keekey they are toys Lucifer bring to life. Rosie's talk reminds me of Franklin from Pilot episode who was moust likely her friend maybe even.

[@Adir-Yosef]

fun fact: in episode 5 of helluva boss (the one to introduce striker) one of his propesition to Blitz is "you could be slaying overlords" aka- you can be killing sinners and when you consider all of these exorcists are winners (dead humans that gone to heaven) you can find the logic

[@iamalbertwesker2]

"20:00 - TF you mean, 'Nuh-Uh!'?"

[@aokhoinguyenang3992]

I like the "Out of love" song but I think there is a missing scene somewhere, Vagie has been fighting only for love this whole time, everytime she threaten violence it's to defend Charlie or the hotel, she has never attack anyone out of hate(out for blood). I think there should have been a scene where she tackle Lut or Adam after they reveal her secret

[@nicklopez3133]

She got Susan on board. You can see her nodding.

"Wouldn't it be nice to see more of hell" "Do you want to travel, come on boys hop on saddle" She's throwing all enlistment slogans out there

[@pie1o1morris46]

6:09 well I mean, Moxxie swore by heaven once or twice too. In ep 2 he says "the heaven's wrong with this thing?" when trying to win the carnival game

[@Riconort]

25:00 a very common theory is that helluva boss takes place after season 1 of helluva boss, mainly because Moxxie talks about how angelic weapons changed demon warfare to Millie's parents, and now all of hell knows about the power they hold. And Moxxie even says that Striker's gun is "carmine crafted" meaning that after the information went public, Caine started selling angelic steel infused weapons, but to very few and probably an insane price.

[@steelplasma256]

She definitely lost her wings, they just grew back due to the "Power of Love" tm.

[@_ideatrash]

I wonder how Vaggie didnt relize angels can be harmed based on she is also an angel but she literatly brutally attacked and lose an eye by a former weapon-friend angel, by an angelic weapon...

[@Barret9559]

By another angel. She may have honestly believed it was only because Lute was another angel that she could be hurt and not the weapon that did it. Remember, Lute ripped her wings off, it was only the eye that was stabbed.

[@Sanguimaru]

Yes, heavenly weapons are useful that way, as shown in Helluva Boss. The Carmine name is dropped when Moxie talks about the blessing-tipped rifle that Striker uses, because Carilla Carmine is the only dealer of angelic weapons. The two shows can't cross over directly, but they do still clearly share a universe.

[@Posyopues2007]

Definitely the hottes character I agree 100%

[@H0r53f7y]

Fun note: Susan's outfit is the same one Al put Vaggie in during his song in the pilot.

[@FireheadLazzo]

Had to go back and check for this one. It's not quite the same, but it is very similar. The hat and dress are very different. That would be a really deep cut if it were identical.

[@DarthWolfen077]

24:30 Easy target? that's what the Roman Legions thought about the Berserkers and they got decimated in the battlefield... there is nothing more terrifying than skilled warriors who are not afraid of dying.

[@thebeardedbrony9586]

26:47 correct, when moxie pointed out specifically a "carmine-crafted blessing tipped rifle".

[@jasmine9581]

00:00 WOOOO ROSIE ROSIE 3:47 mm 4:19 It's one of the few things I heard about him between the Pilot and the Show - about seeing not smiling as a weakness. As far as comics... I read like 2 pages, if even that, of one of the comics, and I only remember that he was walking down a street and some cannibal ladies were all waving at him or smth. 6:50 Harm no one -- that sounds so NO It's worse bc he says "harm no one" and then pushes "do we have a deal?" without even pausing, so it's almost like a slip from my POV Cutting my comment into so many parts -- and deleting or striking through some things I see covered in comments

[@jasmine9581]

p3 20:28 yOOO I haven't heard anyone say that and I love it 21:00 with the one opened eye, I'm pretty sure it was a dig, given the conversation before the deal, and the unsuccessful attempts 21:16 the way his ears flatten because _Susan_ I just keep watching the ears --- like part of episode 8, actually 👀just for a moment 22:12 because of the towns designs, some think they're a whole town that was starving, resorted to cannibalism, and still starved to death. Hence ending up together and with similar character designs that seem less personalized.

[@gavingraham9565]

The goat attendants are named Razzle and Dazzle, and are plushies brought to life by Lucifer

[@rasgrizrevelations4145]

The best part I found in this episode? The excuse for the exterminations was to prevent hell from rebelling against heaven. And here it's those very exterminations which got a small part of hell to actually start fighting back instead of running and hiding.

[@jasmine9581]

p5 I need to start learning to pick out the most important thoughts /// 27:17 I figure she didn't think she did, and/or hadn't tried. Also, the color is faded, so no longer black-striped. (Her hair has a faded strip as well). 33:40 "Passing the test" would probably be context dependent, because usually I hear "passing the test" as in, for your role. As in pass the test as princess, show that she has the leadership and motivation skills, etc. Also I just love their little side moment in this song. It's one of my favorite things. Al and Rosie. (Also when the cannibals join in, I always wave my arms with them, maybe do a little choreo beyond that, but at _least_ the L-R-L Susan approves~

[@KEWLAID81]

Vaggie had her eye removed by an angelic weapon. How did she not know This?

[@vamperjr1376]

I like how Alastor has beef with some random karen

[@thebeardedbrony9586]

16:13 he did include the caveat "this side of the pentagram", which might include the five points and the central hub as the "sides".

p4 23:30 Yess this is why you're one of my favorites. I always see it in comments but I don't see reactors also verbally acknowledge the _why_ , just complimentary, like "oo her hair" 24:58 "oh my crumbles, a genuine Carmine-Crafted Blessing-Tipped Rifle" (I always just think...why were they outside, though? -- if the Pilot had held that would've meant they were out when it started, rushed home, then hung out with Zestial until it finished 26:03 oop well...maybe this will be smooth enough for it not to feel awkward when she doesn't sing. I hear other people also thinking it's interesting that they're getting another connected moment like you mentioned

[@jdogx211]

Carmilla said she killed the Angel, she NEVER said how she did or what she used.

[@meganshaw1949]

It’s possible that Rosie and the cannibals are a reference to the urban legends of Black Eyed Children and Black Eyed Adults. Although the references to Hello Dolly and Sweeney Todd are dead give aways.

[@Zikkar]

You are the first person I have way he’s that noticed Carmila out here hair down when Vaggie mentioned her hair.

[@the_godbodor7026]

Alastor using "heavens no" and the like really isn't that odd when Lucifer himself says things like "by god" on multiple occasions.
