"Blitzø, I think so highly of you. I didn't know you thought so low of me." That line and Stolas crying is so heartbreaking. What a gut punch to end the episode on.

[@SukunaIsHim]

W line

[@waterbullstudios9195]

100% agreed. The range is Stolas' voice is amazing.

[@thusnameddigital9397]

We expected to cry hard, and we did. Hard. I can only imagine how heartbreaking Apology Tour will be.

[@Dustrin]

That line and blitzø's scene before that had me in shambles 😭 also w PFP too

[@tgdm_show]

The line is tragic. And the hurt in Stolas' voice is just so sad and real. Fantastic voiceacting from Bryce on this one.

[@HoneyQueen346]

Notice how when Stolas gave him the crystal, Blitzø wasn't excited or happy. He just kept saying he could do better. Even after being told what the gem does, Blitzø doesnt want to end the relationship with Stolas. But he has no idea how to express that. 😢

[@Noor-sl5ep]

literally just the word 'yes' would have saved everything

[@alessandrofigueroa8909]

​@@Noor-sl5ep I'm sorry but realistically, u meet a rich person who wants u just for ur body, barely shares his genuine affection for u (Because no matter what, we see more what Stolas acts like alone or in his mind instead of directly with Blitz. I honestly think there's more scenes with Stolas n Blitz alone then together.) As much as I don't condone Blitz's behavior, it's like a literal prince keeps u around for sex. Why would u trust any person in power? That's just my take.

[@Noor-sl5ep]

@@alessandrofigueroa8909 i see and understand your point of view man. but honestly even since day one stolas was genuine. he was genuinely happy and he tried to contact Blitz as much as he can but in a lot of those scenarios Blitz was neglecrful towards him. yes i acknowledge that Blitz has thos self-worth problems and it was beautifully shown to us. but hearing stolas offer everything like that to be misunderstood is just painful. great episode anyway 10/10

[@HaifaaAmni]

@@alessandrofigueroa8909 in the fizz episode, blitz described how stolas behaved w him and fizz sarcastically said "oh yeah that's definitely how someone who doesn't care about you acts" and blitz was like "IKR" when Fizz wasn't being serious so everyone around blitz saw that stolas cared more than just abt s**. Stolas has shown how he cares but this is the first time he expressed it so seriously so it's understandable that Blitz needed more time or even a warning about it. like telling him beforehand that stolas wanted to have a serious conversation instead of springing it on him. but blitz was definitely the a-hole here for what he said to stolas. his own views and self esteem issues but he blamed stolas

[@alessandrofigueroa8909]

Yeah or maybe he is moving away for some time. Wjen some people who have multiple homes and go to vacation houses or some other place for a long time. They cover up their furniture and valuable stuff to protect it from bugs and dust.

Yeah i noticed it too! Rewatching it i noticed all the photos were covered and the only ones that showed had Octavia in them and only she showed in the photos. It reminds me of blitz when he scribbles himself out of the photos he has

[@hybonesdx]

Also, Blitzø enters the same way with a sack like when he was a kid, trying to rob him, via the balcony

[@hannahpinson4361]

I think the true breaking point for Stolas was Blitzo's "The Reason You Suck" speech near the end. He can handle Blitzo not having feelings for him outside of sexual ones, but all that stuff he said in the end made it sound like Blitzo hated his guts. I can't imagine how much it hurts to realize that the person you love hates you.

[@irkenpony17]

Stolas i think feels he tries to treat Imps more kindly than other royals and even sins and other beings of higher power to their subjects, which makes sense as the Butler honestly seemed more Dad fitted than his own dad. So the imp he lives telling him he is just like the other right and powerful scum who treat the imps so shit, well, that's just low.

[@pillowvibes]

if you notice his facial expression, it changes when blitzo screams ‘Well, I’m not letting you, bitch!’, which I think was the real final nail in the coffin for stolas. we should be used to him calling him that by now, but the tone and circumstances (saying it in response to being ‘dismissed’) directly mirrored a tell-tale abusive relationship, where one person tries to end it and another verbally degrades them and refuses to leave. I wouldn’t be surprised if blitzo’s behavior at the end reminded him of the way stella treated him. 21:52 in case anyone wants a timestamp. he flinches on the ‘bitch’.

[@solsystem1342]

​@@irkenpony17 The thing is... blitz isn't wrong exactly. We do see Stolis physically abusing other imps during his fight with stella (the one where she's moving out). Up until this point, even though Stolis does love Blitzø there's been a hugs gap in who has the power in the relationship up until this point. I think Blitzø' s actions are still super messed up as well. Like, you can't yell at your lover instead of telling them your actual feelings. Especially after such a misinterpretation of Stolis's intentions... there really needed to be a "I need time to process my feelings." Somewhere instead of all the ramblings. Tldr: I love our problematic gays, I just hope Blitzø can pull himself out of his self destructive spiral in a satisfying way. Hopefully he'll actually take some advice from M&M along the way too 🤭

[@Ravioactive09]

Stolas genuinely believes he treats imps well but at the same time, he's living in a fantasy world and doesn't realize how he mistreats them (his butlers for example). It also doesn't help that Stolas heard the same kind of words and arguments coming from Striker, who nearly killed him. To think that both Striker, his assassin, and Blitz, his love, think of him the same way would absolutely ruin him.

[@minoassal]

And its probably what his ex wife would yell at him too before

[@babykillingcadillac6719]

the "fizz is a certified forklift driver?" comment is so funny to me because that's implies that hell, notorious for murder and torture, draws the line at driving a forklift without proper licensing 💀

[@EnbyLink]

So many people are immediately pushing Blitzø in the wrong here when honestly, Stolas kind of did spring a lot of this on him at once, and it’s reasonable that Blitzø would freak out. This was a massive, massive revelation for him and he wasn’t even given a second to process it before he was dismissed. Both parties involved are in such a heightened emotional state that no one’s right or wrong, it’s just heartbreaking for both of them.

[@niccilefevre]

Fr, and the way he presented it. He could've offered the crystal right off the bat but it felt like he was dragging it out. Brought Blitzøs insecurities to the forefront.

[@EnbyLink]

@@niccilefevre there’s ways both sides could improve this whole interaction but it was almost thrust to be an instant thing, so neither side really had a chance to breathe and explain anything

[@plus9775]

@@EnbyLink Stolas was nervous, clearly this has been a long time coming and he just wants an answer so he could move on, not have to live in limbo wondering what his life is going to be like going forward.

[@Jonathan_Collins]

The rage of Blitzø and the sadness of Stolas... Brandon and Bryce did an amazing work here. The last 8 minutes of this episode were a masterpiece. The absolute culmination of they entire relationship. Brutal. Man, Stolas being Self Depricating, and Blitzø being Self Destructive sure is something.

[@TheRibottoStudios]

This episode is definitely bringing "Moxxie's Bad Trip" back to the forefront of my mind. *Moxxie:* Why does it seem like a recurring thing...That you alienate with your toxic routine? *Blitzo:* I don't know, eventually everyone goes! *Moxxie:* Cuz you're thoughtless and cruel, and you'll end up alone!

[@thestellarvoid7077]

It's his inner cycle of self-destruction. In Blitz's trip he is depicted as being on Stolas' leash. And while you can see there is some comfort in seeing him, I think it's more a painful reminder that he is bound to only bring suffering as a killer or entertainment as a toy. Stolas did the right thing by letting Blitz make his own choice, but Stolas was clearly not ready to have his heart broken. Blitz meanwhile is accustomed to the torment and seems content believing he is worthless--it's the only thing he knows. Neither of them are ready to make a commitment--whether it's to break off their relationship or to actually get together. And rather than accepting that they arent mature enough to have this conversation, they decide to go through the motion as one-sided as possible; Blitz angry and Stolas betrayed. Stolas taking charge in divorcing Stella and giving Blitz the Asmodean crystal shows some growth on his part. But he is still, at the end of the day, naive to think either of these actions will change his situation for the better. Yes, he doesn't have to endure Stella's cruelty but it drove a wedge between his relationship with Octavia.

[@Kimmie6772]

The more and more episodes come out, the more it seems that this show is really about Blitzø and his character development. The episodes shift the focus on different characters but it all eventually ties back to him and how he treats the people around him. I'm assuming there will only be more and more focus on Blitzø and his inner turmoil the longer the show goes on for.

[@Moonlight.Howlings.666]

Only a Helluva Boss episode could start out with an amazingly fun musical number, give us a bunch of whacky bullshit Zim-like shenanigans, and then punch us directly in the gut emotionally by the end. Blitzø and Stolas's argument broke my heart. I broke down crying when Stolas said "I think so highly of you... I didn't realize you thought so low of me." F*ck who ever wrote this line bruh. I'm still crying.

[@Narutocoolcat]

Literally. So good dialogue

[@njivwathomassilavwe2056]

"I think so highly of you, I didn't know you thought so low of me" genuinely heartbreaking. Going from IMP being badass to that emotional gut punch

[@LivingFire_BurningFlame]

When this show first came out I thought "Oh haha, gay horny owl. Its funny". But by the end of the first season I am genuinely invested and want them to be happy! This free cartoon on youtube is making me feel more than anything I've seen from Holywood in years!

[@burningfox4974]

Other peeps mentioned it before, but when Blitz raged on Stolas, his first words where “give me a moment to organize my thoughts”. He never got his thoughts organized, if Stolas waited maybe a minute for everything to set in, things might’ve happened differently

[@tomfougstedt]

No they wouldn't. Sure Blitz probably would've come up with something better to say, but the end result was always going to be the same. Blitz simply isn't able to offer what Stolas is looking for at the moment.

[@alansmithee419]

What do you want Stolas to do? It's Blitzo who just goes off. Stolas doesn't make, or even do anything to encourage, Blitzo to speak at that moment. He could've had a minute, he just doesn't take it.

[@ghostlyexe]

Yes, this is something I see a lot of people ignoring, Stolas assumes that Blitz wants to break it off when Blitz is just trying to process and then walks off. It was what Stolas thought was the right thing to do, but he basically jumped to conclusions and assumed the relationship was already over, when Blitz was just confused. And him walking away and ending it triggered Blitz into becoming defensive and antagonistic towards him

[@tomfougstedt]

@@ghostlyexe I don't think he assumed that. Stolas didn't want to continue their transactional relationship anymore. Either they start a genuine relationship or go their separate ways. Since Blitz didn't seem ready to take that step, he decided it was better to end it completely.

[@Cryptid_in_the_Cellar]

​@alansmithee419 he goes OFF because Stolas instantly took his misunderstanding as his answer and WALKED AWAY, he didn't give Blitz a fair chance by 1. Springing it on him 2. Not cutting straight to it and "give me my book, I'm taking it back permanently" with out INSTANTLY explaining why just that he is taking it and never giving it back which of course would set blitz off after what Luna said earlier 3. Walking away instead of sitting down and have a legit adult convo about it 4. Not allowing blitz to apologize despite it clearly being him about to apologize They both fucked up and I'm tired of people (seemingly, maybe you aren't?) Fulling blaming blitz, no matter how pretty you word something doesn't matter if you pussy foot around it and then not let the other person have a long hard think about it, the better thing for stolas is to give him a week or two to just think on having a relationship, they both handled this VERY poorly.

[@Shippou011]

Blitz's response to the crystal being "I can always do better" and that hurt on his face. Ughhhhhhhh my heart.

[@jubileebaby0]

If you look closely at the pictures at the mansion, as Stolas trying to explain himself, it's noticeable that all of them are smudged or covered, except parts with Octavia. That completely shows that Stolas hates himself as much as Stella, just like Blitz, with all pictures at his house with his own faces shaded.

[@teamvlcn6820]

They don't focus on them, but you can see the pictures of plants uncovered as well. Stolas has pride in his daughter and his gardening.

[@aquelgamermexicano]

A little fun fact based on what Erick is saying at the end in 26:10 , the creator talked about how they barely made it to May due to extra tweaks, so it's possible Erick WAS RIGHT, and they were planning to release this on May 24-25, which would have been actually Full Moon in real life. And the closest we've got to having "Loona's backstory" is that she was already in a Dog Pound and Blitz found/adopted her there because she was going to get killed soon.

[@bryanmoberg8408]

yeah, with the merch videos etc i just figured she was trolling the fans, but it does sound like it just straight up wasn't done. Meaning the next episode is probably late june too, after that they have a couple months off so hopefully it'll be less of a crunch to get the last 4 episodes out.

[@aquelgamermexicano]

@@bryanmoberg8408 She implied that the rest of the episodes were smoother in production than this one, because this one was like the one that got the most attention put into it. But ultimately we'll only know once they're out. Because i argue the same as Ruff, this was probably meant to always a be a 2-part episode and that's why Apology Tour is the only one coming right after.

[@sabrinaduckett5057]

#1 - STARTING with a song, and a duet at that? Fabulous! #2 - I was surprised that the Cherubs and DHORKS were in the same episode as the "Stolitz disaster," I was really not sure how much of the episode was going to be focused on their heartbreaking conversation, but I truly didn't expect it to be at the VERY end and to cut off like that. But Eric's right, it is perfect because however they start the next episode, Blitzø has to deal with this new situation SOMEHOW while interacting with his employees and other people, so I'm curious to see how that's going to go. He's definitely going to be angry and he explained why, but I don't know how he's going to handle/interpret his sadness and how he comes to terms with his feelings for Stolas. I also agree that I hope he is able to at least vent to Fizz, and get some insight into the Venn Diagram of a relationship that can contain "romance & sex," because Fizz & Ozzie's relationship has BOTH, and Stolitz is hopefully going to navigate those waters. #3 - I am extremely surprised at how Stolas handled Blitzø's reaction to literally everything - I was 100% convinced that Blitzø was going to be the one to walk out on Stolas after receiving the explanation of why Stolas gave him an Asmodean Crystal, but instead they twisted it a bit so that it was actually Stolas who "ended it" completely. Very interesting take. - Yes, there is definitely miscommunication on BOTH their perspectives, but Blitzø's was absolutely valid in that from HIS perspective, Stolas just "dropped feelings" onto him and expected an answer right away, and THEN Stolas didn't give him a proper opportunity to explain himself; we could clearly see that Blitzø was actively trying to communicate with Stolas once he realized he was serious, and even after Stolas told him goodbye, Blitzø wanted to continue talking. - I think Stolas' biggest missed opportunity was at the end of the night from Ozzie's, after suggesting they could do non-s*xual things and simply hang out with each other, when Blitzø says "don't act like what we have is anything more than you wanting me to f**k you, okay, you make that really clear all the time," Stolas just replied with "Okay," and then "goodnight, Blitzø." I think that's when Stolas decided he would give more concrete signals (letting Blitzø not have sex with him but still let him use the Grimoire), but he SHOULD have just said (maybe not right then and there, but definitely in plain language) "I don't feel that way anymore / I want more than sex, because I'm developing feelings for you." - I get that Stolas felt dismayed when Blitzø responded with demeaning "role play," but I really feel like Stolas should have simply said "Blitzø, I'm not joking / I'm serious / I meant what I said," rather than interpreting it as a rejection. Stolas was so hurt by THIS as well as Blitzø's rage rant that he decided to shut Blitzø out completely rather than take the time to work it out. - I don't think Stolas truly understood that his signals of letting Blitzø not have sex with him for the Grimoire was NOT properly interpreted by Blitzø; for Stolas to admit that he's had feelings for Blitzø for a long time, and for Blitzø to say Stolas just now dropped this information from out of the sky, means that Blitzø was unaware of Stolas' true intentions during all this time of not having sex but still using the Grimoire for work, and Stolas does not understand that. So sad.

[@aquelgamermexicano]

To answer Boom's comment. Helluva Boss is meant to have 4 seasons, while Hazbin is the one that can have as many as Amazon and A24 allows Vivziepop to have. Idk if she actually DOES have a clear ending no matter what tho, yet she did say her ideal goal would be 6 seasons because Bojack had 6 seasons LOL

[@teamvlcn6820]

I've heard Hazbin Hotel is supposed to have three seasons, but that is old information, and it might have changed.

[@RockinAfr0]

It was "foreshadowed" in the song they released before: Blitzø doesn't believe anyone can love him and Stolas doesn't know that because Blitzø never talks about his past. I've been in that situation once: where every piece is on the table but you just comunicate past eachother until it is too late... And I cannot wait to see where the story goes from here!

For clips of ‘Apology Tour’ (the next episode in the line up), we see Verosika and Stolas on stage in front of a sign saying “Fuck Blitzø”. I think it’ll be an episode of Stolas trying to move on, with Verosika’s aid (?), and Blitz slowly, _finally_ , comprehending what this all means.

[@CrazyJabberwock]

the transactional nature wasn;t healthy, but it served as an emotional safety net for Blitzo, something he could lean on to make it feel believable to him through his self loathing, and Stolas didn't exactly help with that, calling him demeaning pet names, or a plaything at times. Now on Stolas's end, Bltiz's entire blow up likely reminded him of the scolding he got from Stella and the Hatred he got from Striker. Neither side is exactly in the right here, both of them had some rather scathing and legitimate points made to eachother here.

[@FrostyFyre]

Stolas thought Blitz thought low of him when it’s the exact opposite! Blitz hates himself and couldn’t imagine anyone, let alone a royal big shot like Stolas having genuine feelings for him. Stolas “setting him free” just feeds into his abandonment trauma, it’s a self-fulfilling prophecy: Blitz expects people to leave him so he detaches and doesn’t admit his true feelings to them which in turn causes them to eventually leave because they get the wrong perception of him not having feelings for them 😭

[@HeraclesN-fp1bw]

It started with a song but ended with dead silence - Notice that there is some references in the D.H.O.R.K.S. underground base like that they are cloning Catholic bishops making an army very much like the Clone Troopers from “Star Wars: Episode II: Attack of the Clones”, there is a silhouetted creature which looks like the Mothman, the portal machine to Hell is simalar to Stargate, & the tracking device looks like a Gameboy

[@williamharmon4039]

Ultimately this needed to happen. Blitzo and Stolas' deal was always exploitative and unhealthy on both ends. Blitzo is a self-destructive mess who pushes everyone away and demolishes his own relationships because of his insecurities and implusively lashing out, but the harshest part is that he really isn't even completely wrong. As we saw throughout season 1, Stolas was constantly only thinking and talking about sex with him and ignoring Blitzo when he showed he was uninterested or uncomfortable with the flirting and Stolas really was coercing him into a a deal where he didn't have the option to refuse at first as seen in the first episode. There were plenty of times we as the audience saw the deeper feelings behind it, but none of those moments really happened in front of Blitzo so he doesn't know how Stolas truly feels the way we do. Their relationship was inherently unhealthy because of the severe imbalance of power and the fact that even though on some level Blitzo does like Stolas he was being made to feel trapped and unable to have his own boundaries because losing Stolas' favor would mean the destruction of his business and livelihood. Even if it wasn't what Stolas intended to do, it's still what happened because Stolas was overcompensating hard for having gone so long starved for affection and didn't realize how complicated the situation and feelings really were for Blitzo soon enough.

[@sedarue123]

One thing I noticed is that Stolas might have done that confrontation without his medication. Considering how many he takes at once, that could be a contributor in how both Stolas and Blitz took the worst of what each other said and ran with it

[@Gaterman]

28:47 Loona and Millie deftly got a lot less backstory though Millie is a pretty standard early life but we'll probably get more in ghostf****** considering it looks like a flashback with her having long hair fighting Blitz. All we really know about Loona is Blitz adopted her from a horrible place that is also owned by Beelzebub (you can see the adoption paper signed by Bee when Blitz starts singing and back in s1e7 before Bee even appeared).

[@outrider2177]

Bro this episode was a masterpiece and SUCH an explosion for Blitzøs characterportrayal Like from what we had up until now he's always been that saracstic cynicn smug little fucker and we probably got hints (especially with Fizz) that there's more to it. But damn that Stolitz scene?Christ; Blitz is going through so much in the span of 6 minutes and his soft and insecure side is SO present in this one. Like how he instantly went to 'I can do better' even though he didnt have to just to not lose what they have. And the moment he's about to realize where Stolas is going at he instantly switches to that usual cynic attitude b e a u t i f u l l y portraied in the shift of his eyes. Also love that him being an angry/angsty crier is now officaly canon lmao

I love stolas lines, especially him saying he doesn't want to weather blitzø to him not knowing how blitzø feels, stolas has been there already, he has been with someone who he had no say in and he didn't love who didn't care about his feelings, and blitzø set him free so now he just wants to return the favor, he wants to know what blitzø feels, if he wants to be there and won't force him to be if he doesn't, and ending it with " I think so highly of you blitzø, I never knew you thought so lowly of me " blitzø confirmed his worse fear that he might be as bad as Stella, he's not but still that is his fear and what he believes now, blitzø makes sense too and I see why blitzø thinks the way he does based off being treated as second class all his life, and the fact every love he's had he's ruined, he doesn't think he deserves love at this point so he pushes people away, but he also craves it so he gets in these weird situationships so he can be close but not have to feel attacked, in all honesty they need time apart to learn and grow before they get back together, they will both be much healthier for it.

[@thestellarvoid7077]

I think an interesting thing about Stolas and Blitz's relationship is that the abuse, if you want to call it, goes both ways. Stolas wants someone to love him for who he is--something he was deprived of by his family. Even Octavia seems to have a hard time actually liking him, despite the reconciling they've done. Stolas divorcing Stella has evidently driven a wedge between Octavia and him. Blitz can only expect the worst outcome. Stolas was clearly hesitant, even hurt, by the notion of setting Blitz free, but did so believing it was the right thing to do. Blitz being confused tells me he's never expected anyone to actually consider him a friend, and certainly not a lover. But he's also grown accustomed to their transactional relationship and it's possible he believes it's the best outcome to remain enslaved by that transaction. Then he goes and makes everything worse by rejecting the idea he can be happy.

"I think so highly of you, I didn't realize you thought so low of me." im actually gonna cry a river.

[@Jonathan_Collins]

The rage of Blitzø and the sadness of Stolas... Brandon and Bryce did an amazing work here. The last 8 minutes of this episode were a masterpiece. The absolute culmination of they entire relationship. Brutal. The parallel of Blitzø now being left alone, at night in front of Stolas’s home. The same thing Blitzø did to him, is heartbreaking.

[@Katx2_XD]

This reminds me of Good Omens, season 2 ending so much

[@SytanOfficial]

Its also important to remember that Stolas ran out of his anti-depressants. If you go back and watch the song, you can see the moment he says "Oh dear", is when he starts manic spiraling and seeing through his rose tinted glasses, noticing how not OK the whole situation is. There is a level of clear headed-ness that shines through after that moment, and I think thats what allows him to realize just how far things have gone, and that no matter how much it hurts himself, he needs Blitz to make that choice and pick it on his own. Its almost an effort to make up for all of the things Stolas chose for him, rather than letting Blitz be in control of their interactions. The most important choice they have ever made together ended up being the single one Stolas let Blitz decide for himself

[@Moonlight.Howlings.666]

Not even a day into Pride Month and they broke the gays up. Stolas voice cracking at the line "I didn't realize you think so low of me" was real stab to the heart, not just to me but to Blitzø too as he immediately regrets his outburst. What a way to end the episode. 😭

[@eagleangel5568]

20:11 i didnt even noticed the first time i watched it but look at blitz here after what stolas said he was literally like no wait i do want to stay with you/i dont wanna lose this connection we have even if its a transactionnal thing

[@LocalPunkKid204]

I was like "yeah they gon cry"

[@scarletpsychowolf3578]

Ah, Helluva Boss back at it again with "Had fun? You DIIID? GOOOD *Emotional damage to the solar plexus* "

[@Crovan_corpseknight]

I just noticed the plug thing made the same sound as the mall Santa in the episode. The cherubs were introduced. Which could mean something, but I don't want to think about that, ignorance is bliss 👍

[@Purple_694]

I was in the car scrolling through yt when I saw the episode 2 minutes after it came out, and let me just say, it was one helluva ride for me.

[@ImVeryWholesome]

Think so lowly of me he says as when we go to the trip that he had with moxie we all know that Blitz actually places Stolas in a GOLDEN THROWN

[@leaderlamby]

As a Blitz kin, i am so mad at myself in this episode

[@SauceyRedHN]

The "I think so highly of you. I didn't know you thought so low of me." line is the most heartbreaking line in the whole show so far, and also my new favorite. That hit hard. Fuck, man.

[@mrsfahrenheit]

well.. that was depressing guys 🥲 and we did see a flashback of how Blitz and Loona first meet in the adoption shelter and Blitz decides to adopt her

[@Khadharphak]

We saw Blitz adopting Loona but we haven't seen any of her background beyond that, and although we've seen Millie's family we don't really know much about her backstory either, the family gives some insight but not all of it, given the trailer clips I think we are gonna see how she and Blitz met

[@bryanmoberg8408]

I don't think there is much for millie, I think she's just a farm girl who moved to the city when she grew up.

[@j1unepi.]

luckily they’ll be doing shorts in between the eps so hopefully that’ll fill in gaps for us !!

With the "just look my way" and this episode ...

[@MitchellWebb09]

You can tell Blitzø knew he was serious, and that his sex talk was just a defense mechanism 😢 he only had such an outburst because of how personal stolas got with him. Just like Veronica, he pushes him away. 🥺😔

[@montydavid1252]

I love your guys reactions❤ I dont know why, but i makes my day, and helps my emotions after watching this episode😢😢

The Disney villain part of the opening song is great.

[@jojoal7115]

Thank you for the reaction my heart is broken I need the other episodes fast 😭 😭. The episode was still amazing can’t wait to see more ❤ ❤.

[@LiMe251]

Over halfway in, still waiting for when they see the omnitrix logo on Cletus's mech.

So much emotions in one episode- OH GOD! WHY! BRANDON AND BRYCE TYY

[@ammash3000]

“Wait… he can be *hurt…?”* Yes, Blitzø… he can be hurt…

[@adventuresinbasicreality219]

I’m convinced these two were meant for each other

[@arnavmekala4578]

The trailer wasn’t lying when they said the rest of season 2 is gonna be a rollecoaster of emotions. Seriously I didn’t think they were gonna go this hard this season.

[@LiMe251]

Before the episode came out, we heard the "You [$&@>]s think you can do this every time" part and onward, and we assumed it was about Verosika, but now, with the episode out, we know he was specifically referring to royals.

[@bryanmoberg8408]

I always thought it referred to the royals, but I figured it was aimed at Stella and/or her brother, given they disapprove of stolas and blitz's relationship and have been trying to kill stolas. (since it looks like blitz is fighting her brother later in the trailer) I figured a breakup was coming, but thought that would be from after they presumably made up late in the season.

[@BaiWuxiangsWorshiper]

I always assumed it was towards Stolas lol it was pretty obvious this was gonna happen, pretty heartbreaking tbh

[@LiMe251]

@@BaiWuxiangsWorshiper Except it was always referring to multiple people and multiple events, even in the trailer, and now that it's specifically about royals, we can't cite Verosika as the other demon.

[@isdelicious7119]

Let's be real here, Stolas waited and waited for a sign from Blitz, which never came until this moment. I think Stolas knew what the answer was and just wanted to confirm it once and for all. I really understand Blitz, but he still could have listened to Loona and especially the signals that Stolas was giving him, and then been less of an asshole. Now I think he can maybe change that. And Stolas is always in a worrying state of depression and I really hope that now he heals a little from so many bad things, I feel sorry for him 😢

[@shadowking1380]

This was probably one of the most painful breakups I’ve ever seen 😢

[@emilyschomer6715]

Next is June, there's only 5, 4 now

[@HazbinCovenWitch]

The next episode is, "Apology Tour," it comes out in June I think. Verosika will be in it.

"I didnt realize you think so low of me..." This episode ran me over like a train, fuck whoever wrotr that line I was straight up sobbing.

[@JustLife176]

This episode had me almost crying

[@CatalinaLinal7710]

I love to see how strong of a grasp Helluva Boss has on the Internet, even if people wanna deny it. Cause the moment a new episode airs everybody just drops whatever they were doing to watch it x)

[@eilzabethsstudioslifeonyou]

Also I didn’t notice the first time watching but I’m pretty sure stolas covered all his photos of him specifically,there’s a photo of him and his daughter when he’s walking away from blitz and you only see her and the side with stolas in the photo is covered,I think he really hates himself at this point and I feel bad for both bliz and stolas🥺

Oh no, he's doing the blitz thing 😧

I was waiting for y'all reaction ahh 14:27 LMAO what a quote

[@poggy2904]

This episode felt so good, I felt like it took inspiration from alot of older animated shows with the gags and jokes. Feels much better when adult animated shows don't ignore what made more family friendly animated shows so great, this was a great mix.

[@zaxbitterzen2178]

The guilt in Blitz's voice at the last second before Stolas sends him away hits so hard I just can't.

[@twist58]

This episode also marks the first time Loona has formally met the Cherubs as she wasn’t present when IMP fought them previously.

[@starace4031]

I adored Full Moon and after watching it I was so excited to see you all react to it. 😊 It's awesome being able to share the excitement and emotions that we all have from a series we all love and appreciate so much. 😊

[@47ratsinahoodie]

Little correction on Viv's statement about Hazbin; she wants it to run as long as it's allowed-not forever, with plans for about six seasons. So since she's only on two, she wants to see if her planned story can get told. However she's not opposed to a Hazbin movie or spin off series

[@sebasdasebas]

any episode focusing on Stolas and Blitz ends up with a heart break

[@monty3646]

This episode was much more sad than I expected from the first season of Helluva Boss.

[@alyssabullock6421]

Blitz and Stolas' voice acting is TOP NOTCH We needed this episode SO badly

[@tbh_isa]

literally had to go on my phone to distract myself while watching this otherwise i wouldve started crying fr!! im not okay!!!!!!!!! IM CRYING

[@logandoesthingss]

I absolutely love how they actually saw Blitzø’s side of things, usually people are like really mad at blitzø for snapping at Stolas and stuff and it always makes me angry, this reaction was SO f-king amazing I love this, keep up the amazing work and I can’t wait for the next episode!

[@nakicastanuela3360]

Yeah the new helluva boss episode today bros and helluva boss is the best show ever

[@dirac_dydx1830]

Can we just appreciate that Blitzo actually challenged a royal demon to throw down (even if it was in an argumentative context as opposed to physical confrontation), because he was just that upset? What a legend. They both fucked up, in many ways. I hope they manage to reach an understanding.

[@trannhan2383]

The trouble with being loyal to the cause, is that the cause will ALWAYS betray you. Loyalty can be measured, happiness is just an illusion.

[@Darklordlel]

i feel like literally everyone had that same reaction when the end credits rolled

[@Blockyraps]

I think the media literacy is crazy because I think that people are giving blitzo a lot of shit. Yeah he’s shitty and yelling at stolas FELT bad. But Blitzos reasons for not IMMEDIATELY just accepting what Stolas thinks about him, is partially justified. Because that’s what their relationship has been for all this time. Especially how stolas was prepared to just LEAVE him with these feelings without giving blitzo time to even process it when he doesn’t even ask how BLITZO feels about it. (Not saying blitzo is right either for throwing stolas’s feelings in his face

[@rainethewitch6096]

I think it would be very poetic if Loona pulls him out because she was the one that made the comment about him throwing Blitz away
