In retrospect, it shows that Lucifer is not a soulless, selfish monster, but, he became more human than ever when he met Chloe. She changed him into a better man. Someone who is willing to put other's needs before his own. He truly has a soul and he's only a monster if he allows his self hatred to let be one.

mrgameroomvideogametruck Lucifer and Teen Wolf are two shows that have underrated underlining messages. Lucifer is about creating your own fate, and not letting the past define you. That you can be a good soul despite being the ruler of hell. Teen wolf is similar in the way that it’s entire show is a metaphor of that when teens get older, they get shouldered more responsibilities, and those responsibilities become more and more confusing as you age through teenagership. Dunno why I’m comparing hen honestly, just occurred to me that they both are similar in certain ways

The actor plays lucifer so well and the show wouldn't be the same without him, it's an amazing series and it really puts the devil into a different light, I'm really attached to this show and despite it all being acting it feels extremely real and I dont think I'll ever be addicted to a show this much, its so touching and I really can't get over how much I love this show
