It's all about the feelings. Bryce Pinkham was crying during the recording

Blitz is represented by the moon because, in episode 1, during the the cannibal hillbilly chase, Stolas called and laid out the agreement for Blitz using his grimoire, "Once a month, on the full moon, you return the book to me followed by a night of 'passionate fornication'. and you get to keep it all the rest of the time."

Different symbolism thing, but someone smart pointed this out on Tumblr: Blitz's forehead insignia looks a bit like a heart that someone took bites out of. If you look at his bad trip in season 1 episode 6, while he's in the clown outfit, it's a broken heart. And when you look at it in this MV, from Stolas's perspective, it's just a heart. Stolas doesn't see Blitz as damaged goods at all 😭

when one of your fav songs for a show is a FANMADE song that was so good the creators made it canon

Its not that song itself is... tear forcing. Its more what visuals in this song suggest coming next. "We" all know that will be devastating.

I love how the moon starts off small enough to be held in Stolas' hands, then grows ever larger and farther away so Stolas cannot hug the moon or even touch it anymore. It is so heartrending. Bryce did such an excellent job with this song and I played it nonstop when it first dropped. The first time I watched it, I had both hands clasped over my mouth so I could just listen and watch without interrupting it with any sound from me. Yes, I got a little misty-eyed, too. I also noticed the lyric changes from the original fan song that was already posted on YT and on Spotify. About the fan songwriter Paranoid DJ, the lyrics originally were about how Octavia would feel if Stolas left her behind for Blitzø, per the Loo Loo Land ep. Then PDJ was invited by Viv to come in and rework the song to fit the latest storyline. By then, Octavia already knew about (and begrudgingly accepted) her dad's affair with Blitzø (because her dad was finally happy) and was becoming friends with Loona, so the dynamics had definitely changed. Viv also made Paranoid DJ the sound designer for the music video. That is why the music and filler sounds are so epic. And the song is now CANON! The red string of Fate really killed me - they are meant to be together!

Blitz and Stolas' agreement is to meet once a month every full moon in exchange for the book and sex. That's why I think he represents the moon

“I’ll save us both before we grow cold” Till this very day, that’s one of my favorite lyrics from the whole song.

The most beautiful thing about this song is the fact that it was created by a fan. Paranoid DJ published it 2 years ago and it became canon after adjusting a few lines. I already loved his version but after hearing it from Bryce, I fell in love with it again. His way of singing is so touching!

the fake tears lmao 😭😭 I love u

I watched this (the MV) while at the gym... I forgot about it after I caught up with the series, and my youtube recommended it as I was looking for stuff to listen to while working out. Well, suffice to say my workout was shot there and there, I watched and rewatched it while sitting on a mat for 15 minutes, wiping my tears from my face, before I gave up and just went to change :D

You got me in me first half ngl 😂😂😂

This was originally a fan song, and they thought it was so good and fit the character so well. This is essentially when Stolas gets the crystal from Asmodeus and he's supposedly going to try to give it to him in the next episode. The next episode is also called "Full Moon". Stolas and Blitz have a lot of symbology with the full moon because that's when they meet up.

"it's a big gold nugget" got mE CACKLING

I think there is a chance that this is how episode 8 will start with, but you still needed to see it now. You would have been spoiled for it otherwise...

8:37 Blitz is the moon because their contract was that once a month on the full moon they will sleep together as an exchange for the book. Also the next episode 8 is called "the full moon" so its gonna be about Stolas giving the Asmodean crystal to Blitz and breaking the contract.

10:38 "These balls are getting a little moist" has got to be the worst way of saying you're tearing up

Listen dude with all honesty, stop taking the comments of "why you stopping the video" to heart. It's a reaction video! You suppose to react! To notice thing and talk. If they want to simply watch the video they can go watch it without stopping. You are completely fine I enjoy watching your reactions.

Hey Alex, I really appreciate you going through this series and not monetizing this series so you didn't have to blur it. like you said in your last video. I just wanted to say that as a viewer I really appreciate you doing this and it definitely drives up engagement. And you know you rambling on is honestly what I'm here for. I want to hear your thoughts and reactions so don't feel too bad for letting your videos go on for long periods of time!!! Thanks again! And look forward to what you have to offer in the future!

it's also an interesting analysis to think on how stolas was entrusted to study the cosmos, he's got to have a great understanding on the moon and stars, and yet here is blitz, a moon that remains a fixed point in his life, someone whom he sees every month but that he cannot reach or truly get to know. I also think its a great detail how the moon keeps growing bigger just like his love for blitz has, but despite having become such a huge presence in his life blitz remains enclosed within the moon.

"i know people will be annoyed at the pausing but... is the moon blitz?" RIGHT before they reveal blitz- oh dont worry, im not annoyed. thats funny and entertaining to me 😆

So the reason Blitz is the Moon is because their arrangement is that Once a month, on the full moon, Blitz returns the book so Stolas can do his magic duties, and then they have a fuck, and Blitz gets to keep the book the rest of the time. That's why Stolas calls out "Those dazzling moonlit nights."

Bruhh the fake tears killed me! I actually cried fr watching that video for the first time but I cry easily so im not the standard at all😂😂😂

My eyes are red, I can't with this song. I love this song, it is heartbreaking and so sad, yet so gorgeous!😢

Blitz is represented as the moon in this music video because his and Stolas’s agreement is that they meet up every full moon and also, in the words of Romeo and Juliet, “O, swear not by the moon, th’ inconstant moon, that monthly changes in her circle orb, lest that thy love prove likewise variable.” Meaning that, just like the moon, Stolas and Blitz’s relationship is on and off like the moon.

Blitz is the moon to Stolas because they have there meet ups during the full moon but Stolas being into astrology views the moon the same way he views Blitz he holds him in high regard. I love this video so much it makes me tear up everytime. Bryces voice is incredible and conveys so much emotion ❤

It’s not once a year they hook up, it’s once a month on the full moon, hence the moon symbolism.

Forgot to add, this song was originally a fan made song! Viv made it canon and animated it with Bryce singing

this song always rips my heart apart

The way EVERYTIME without fail, i let out an anguished wail and find myself sobbing whenever i listen to this song. I bet you cant tell stolas is my confort character and seeing him cry hurts me. Now way you can tell.

The thing I think is interesting with Helluva Boss and Hazbin Hotel is that HB shows us the graph of increased quality through the episodes, while HH has a much more even quality across the season. Presumably because HB episodes are released whenever they are ready rather than gathered up for bulk release. HB always had good quality for a KZfaq show, but there is a world of difference between the early episodes and the new episodes. I'm sure it has been very useful for the creators to have HB as a relatively free space where they have less restrictions and can test out what hits home with the fans. (As well as of course generating interest in the Vivsiepop Hell and gathering+retaining a fanbase)

my demon stolas

The agreement they made was once a month on the full moon blitz has to bring the grimoire back and then spend the night with him. Also referenced in the song when he mentions 'Yet, I find myself drawn from that path On those dazzling moonlit nights'. So you have blitz, the symbolic moon, luring him from the planned path of his responsibilities.

The symbolism of the moon being blitz is because they meet to hook up every full moon.i believe

What is that opening bruh :D :D :D how are you so funny

"Call me Dora." 🤣......new fear unlocked tho.

What's really heart-wrenching beautiful about Stolas and Blitz to me is that I think Blitz is trying to fix himself because he wants a relationship with Stolas. Maybe it's me being delulu, but what he did in happy campers has me thinking this way.

After weeks of finding this song im still fully hooked and obsessed with it. The instrumental. The voice. The ANIMATION QUALITY??? literally eye and ear candy

I feel like that last shot of Stolas tearing up is the same as when he First saw Blitzø as a child in the circus in the flashback during S2E1 But instead of happiness and the feeling of love back than, it's now just the dooming knowledge that this love may be gone for good soon

I love that this was a fansong at first and now it became canon, paranoid dj is amazing

I actually saw this on TIKTOK for the first time and I just sat there, SOBBING , taking this in. Bryce is such an incredible singer and he put so much emotion into this song. And the animation is absolutely stunning. I just want them to be happy, gdi -sob-

This song is just a knife in the heart is so good in tearms of visuals and you can ear real emotions. And yes the moon represents him and basically a resume of their relancion in beginning blitz was just a little moon around him because of the deal but as it goes on it grows into something that stolas cannot unsee or ignore but he got to let go if nedded (let go in case blitz just takes the cristal and never talks to stolas again)

The stone he got at the beginning was a crystal that can open portals to the human world. He want’s to give it to blitz so he isn’t bound to stoles anymore and so that he can choose what to do next

I believe in episode 1 on his phone call, he makes the deal that every full moon they have passionate fornication and Blitzø can keep the book the rest of the time. But I also can see the moon being a distraction or an obsession from his studies and knowing prophecies. Also the moon being something he can’t reach ..but maybe he can idk he portals to dying stars to get his kid to sleep. So idk it could mean anything but yes Blitzø is his moon! Great reaction, so happy you watched it!

Love the fake tears, it was a genius detail, I subscribed to your channel a few weeks ago -since Hazbin Hotel reactions- and it was so worth it. I love how you are honest with your reactions and everything, and your jokes lol 😂 I don't buy other creators that have cried with this song, there are some who haven't seen the show yet and were sobbing ffs 😅 P.S.: sorry about my English, it's not my first language

Ah, I just love binging reactions. I watched you going through it all in one sitting. And watching someone go from ahahaha, what is this sex crazed bird going about in episode one to THIS, is really entertaining and also really speaks about the quality of writing on this show.

Blitzø is represented as a full moon because thats when they do the exchange! Once a month in the full moon Stolas needs the book to do his Guardian work and thats when they do an exchange of gains. At the start he has the asmodeus crystal hes going to give Blitzø he doesnt need the book anymore to travel to the human world nor do exchanges with Stolas. So yeah this is technically after episode 6 because Fizz tells Ozzy to go ahead and do the favour for Stolas because he knows his intentions.

It's was soo sad one time blitz said he don't care about him like this is soooooo emotional

The thing I think is amazing is that while the emotion is so much deeper, they kept it pretty close to the way the original youtuber/fan wrote and sang it.

Didn't expect you to cry, just catching you up to the current moment in the story lol.

The moon also pulls the tides… that’s why in the water scene as stolas is getting farther away the tide is still affecting him. Aka blitzo

"imma bout to do a rewatch." literally ME ALL WEEK MAN

Notice how small the moon is in the beginning of the video and how it gets bigger and bigger until it is enormous.

also i think its cool that the moon starts off as this small little thing. And as he gets more into his feelings it becomes larger and more important. the moon also orbits its planet - Stolas takes it/him from its place, wants him to stay tied to him. But as Blitz grows more important to him Stolas finds himself desperate to stay close to him, and now hes drawn into blitz's orbit instead. There's a lot of beautiful symbolism in the video.

Literally Noone got it right in the comments! Blitz is the locked dark side of the moon that never looks at the earth THAT'S WHY HE SAYS LOOK AT MY WAY! Stolas is the earth and most specific the ocean and blitz is the dark side of the moon that never faces the earth!!!

I need my tears WHERE TF ARE U?! *proceed to use eyedrops* 😂

Several of the actors in one are often writers on the other…(and vice versa)That also makes them both really good!

love these videos!!

This song just hits all those feelings then you just get to the end and remember we are still waiting on the latest episode being released and it’s like they are edging us with when this fucking episode is actually being released….

9:18 had bro flabbergasted I’ve never seen him this shook before

Damn I bawl everytime I hear this damn song

I think the songs are stronger in HH (apart from this one), but I am more invested in HB… there’s so much depth to the characters and their relationships. I love that sad horny birb, and I need him to have a happy ending (heh) with Blitzy. I prefer the smaller scale storyline too - “will they fall in love” vs “will they save the world” I also find HB much funnier - the humour is darker and snappier, in some way? Anyway, I just love this series and it’s been fun watching it again with you! Off to plan a Stolitzø themed tattoo now 🥲 Hope you had a good Dead Guy on a Stick Day!

Also the crystal at the start, is a gift fro ozzie, it's his symbol on the box, so that's for blitz to go to the human world. This is about making that decision, will blitz want to keep seeing stolas when given that freedom of the crystal, so not needing to sleep with stolas under their contract.

Made another man cry😢

I cant wait to see ur reaction of the next chapter (it will take a long time a know but i know that ur reaction will be good)

Murder drones is another indie show you should watch next, though it only has 7 episodes right now

As a stolast kin, this song made me cry so much

This song is really great considering that its a fanmade song. I love it so much and the music video!

I’m balling my eyes out😭

This was originally a fan song, with only a few lyrics changing to fit the characters situation better. It really shows the development of their relationship Ex: Come now, my little impish plaything. We both made our choice -> But, dearest, I know better now. I must give you this choice

Typical Capricorn reaction in the beginning. I relate. Im a Capricorn too. This series is so emotionally charged but i just can't cry lol.

LOLLL these balls were getting a little moist 😂 great reaction

4:09 that the Asmodean Crystal Stolas asked for. It lets it user open portals to earth and can disguise the user as a human. Blitz wont need the book anymore and will not be bound to their deal.

the moon is about that they meet up every full moon to sleep together.

Before watching: Is it bad if I don't cry... After watching: I didn't cry....why

Its already been said but blitz is represented as the moon because the full moon is currently what connects blitz and stolas

Are those tears and fake crying an April Fool’s gag? 😂😂😂

Regarding the moon represents them and their meet up cause they meet every full moon.The stone he received at the beginning is from Ozzie so if he give blitz the stone they no longer will need to meet and huge fan of the pausing

Blitzø is the moon because it was only on full moons they would meet up

first i love ur content sm!!

Im not sure if anyone noticed, but the instrumental is the same as in s1 ep6 when he takes true demon form.

The moon symbolism is LOADED in this. It's a reference to Romeo and Juliet, their contract, and is full of its own meaning. The moon is a meteor that crashed into earth billions of years ago and got stuck in our orbit, much how Blitz crashed into Stolas' life when they were kids and never quite left it, especially after that first night together as adults. He fears the moon leaving his orbit (Blitz leaving him) and when it does he chases after it, desparate to keep their connection. Stolas looking at Blitz in the dark side of the moon represents the rarity of catching a glimpse of Blitz's true feelings, and the "walls he's conjured up to live." Hence him asking "Is this what you feel?" Then he finally concludes "if you love something, let it go" and pushes it away himself. My favorite line in the song, thematically, visually, and sonically is when he leaps forward and promises "I will try to make amends for making you a means to an end," meaning he understands now why their relationship is doomed to fail as it is, and what he needs to try to do, whether it ends in them being close or him drowning in his own despair at the loss of Blitz.

you should react to the murder drones series, its made by the same people who made the amazing digital circus

You should listen to Ringleader too, a really good fan made song made by the same talented people that made this one. Though isn’t canonical It is really good

Meanwhile Earth: WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO THE MO-

Blitzø=the moon because they meet up on the Full Moon for their “night of paaaasionate fornication” so Stolas associates the moon with spending time with Blitzø

My heart always cry~

So... You ready for the next episode? 😁

I still believe the best helluva boss song is the monsters ball

Thankfully we shouldnt have to wait that long for the next episode, which is called full moon. So it will deal with this. It most likely with air in May.

D!$ney: oh no, romance is icky and wrong. we can't write songs about that for our leads in our big-budget animated movies anymore ;^; Viv and the Hazbin/Helluva crew: Hold my Beelzyjuice

that intro to vid broke me

Hey Alex! A little bit of a different comment on this video's comment section, but on the Patreon community chat, I drew some fanart of you! I don't know if you saw it yet, because nobody has replied to it.

I think Hazbin and Helluva are both good but you get so much more time with certain characters in Helluva Boss, hopefully Hazbin slows its roll I think they had a plan just incase they didn't get a season 2, hopefully now they've proved themselves to amazon they will slow it down and we'll get more time with the different characters, 8 episodes to finish a plotline is not a lot of time to squeeze a lot into.

Pain :(

You did the whole fake crying bit after finishing the song, right? XD

9:16 has beautiful artwork and motion. who did the animation ti's gorgeous?!

To be honest, it'd be better if you'd first watch the whole song for us to only show your emotional response, and THEN went through it with as much pausing as you wish to catch everything you want to elaborate on. It was just 4 minutes, and your reaction is 18, you could've easily start with a full uninterrupted watch and then analyze as much as you want, but it was really annoying to see you pause in the middle of the melody turn or lyrics sentence, talk for 2 minutes and resume from the same place completely losing the perspective of each part where it happened. Music is supposed to charm you, to be perceived fully, its much like speech, melodies have their own sentences, and your approach just doesnt let you hear what the MUSIC is trying to tell you. You can see the lyrics in the subtitles, but you cant see the tone musical phrase started with 2 minutes ago when you started talking. Its especially devastating in such a masterpiece video that was made to work in all of its layers: the melody, the visuals, the lyrics - in conjunction.

so you pick the 1st of April for fake tears...appropriate 😀

you actually fooled me with the fake tears
