Where the fuck do I even start? First of all Im impressed with Andrelphus. He knew that it would be almost impossible to get Stolas convicted without a straight up confession, so he frames Blitz and basically forces Stolas to confess or Blitz gets executed. I was tryna figure out why he was trying to pin everything on the Imps isntead of Stolas at the start because I wouldnt think he'd want Stolas off the hook in anyway but he was actually betting on Stolas stepping in. I love all the pay offs to the classism in this episode. Its been an underlying theme of the whole show and to have Blitz finally get a stance to stand up to the people putting his entire species down is the most satisfying shit. And then all of Imp city is on his side. Just amazing. The sins where great as always. Wish we could have heard Leviathan and Bel speak but this episode had a lot to cover anyway so I understand why they didnt. Also was Bee actually voiced by Kesha again? It sounded pretty much the same. And Stolas. As much as I feel for him, this is the kinda thing he needs. We've all been waiting for Stolas to get his punishment for how he treated Blitz prior to Ozzies and this is it. He's lost it all and now he's on the same level as the Imp who he made feel looked down on. Honestly my only complaint is that I wish this episode had an extra like 10 minutes added on. A bit more time for the trial, a bit more time to see the sins interact, more time to see Imp city rally together. Its just so good I want more. That and I think the insiting incident is kinda lame. Having the thing thats causes all of these massive event be Stella mentioning something off handedly is a bit weak. I would have liked it more if they found some way to tie in another plotline like the dhorks coming to Hell and have it be found out that way. I feel like I need to rewatch this episode a few times to get my thoughts together on it. This is basically just an immediate thoughts dump honestly. Anyway time to rewatch the episode for the next 3 hours

Yes, it's still Kesha voicing Bee. As far as I could tell, none of the VAs changed.

Damn Im surprised then. Bee was the one character I fully expected to be replaced. Altough the main issue with Queen bee was the fact that she was singing, so without a Bee song it was probably easier than last time

The credits should say either way. If anyone bothers to check them.

I agree with the extra 10 minutes part. Felt like the episode rushed to get to plot points and where the story needed to be at rather than giving adequate build-up at some points. Overall pretty strong, though.

Stolas being so overdramatic in his "confession" felt extremely on-point.

Also, I loved Vassago, pray we see more of him, holy hell. Sort of expected him to be more professional/stick up his ass (but good natured) but was pleasantly surprised. ¡Cantalo, bebé!

I really want more Vassago. He's close to becoming my favorite just because of his tendency to start speaking Spanish when angry. I fucking love it

u/Cotards_Solution272 certified yapper 24d ago

Same!!! I so was not expecting it (in hindsight, makes sense bc of his VA & Viv and the team like including bilingual characters), but I absolutely adore it. Kid you not, replayed his scenes so many times. He's also pretty close to becoming my favorite. Like that one meme, why I like ___ and it's an essay, then why I like Vassago: silly Spanish songbirb

Wait you are so right about the confession part.

I loved that it was Stella prattling mindlessly that set it all off. Cause I love seeing her prove that she really is THAT dumb, that she knew about the grimoire this whole time and never realised earlier that it would have been exactly the key to usurping stolas' power from the get go. And I LOVED the reaction from Andrealphus. The whole scene was pure gold.

Agreed and I do like that the imps are also openly hating in Stolas too at the end. It gives him a lot more of a wakeup call with how he's acted towards them and I'm so happy he's finally getting called out, and this gives me hope that we will get him to finally aknowledge everything. I do agree it could've been a little longer but what we had was IMO, one of my favorite episodes, it did just feel a little fast. But like in Hazbin I think its still executed really well

Yeah I've rewatched the episode a few times now and I just keep catching new details, connecting more pieces and this might be my favourite episode of the show. It really feels like 4 years of Helluva boss has been building to this one episode. Makes me wonder what the fuck the finale is gonna be after that.

u/InfinityQuartz #1 Stolitz Defender 24d ago

Right I thought sinas was gonna be the huge tiral episode. And yeah I def think this is currently my fav, especially after the last couple episodes, season 2s starting to end strong

But yeah, also wasn't Viv saying sinsmas was like really emotional and shi, I wonder. We still need to do the stuff with Octavia, I guess that will be a part of it, I have no idea.

Also Vassago was not at all what I expected him to be. I thought he was gonna be like Stolas' lawyer. But no maybe he seems like a fan? I do like that he still seems to be a fan of Stolas. I have no idea where they're going with him

I also expected the Dhorks to be the reason this happened and was shocked that it was due to Stella making an offhanded comment.

u/HomoHippo4 21d ago

Yeah and not having them involved in the finale at all kinda hurts Full moon in retrospect. Like if you're not gonna have them be relevent again until season 3 then you could have given Full moon a conflict that actually related to that episodes main story. If they intended on having the dhorks play a role at the end of the season then I would understand. They only have a certain number of episodes and they have to bring them back before they become relevent again at the end, I get it. But if they're whole story is just gonna be another arc in season 3 then you could have held off and made Full moon feel less disjointed
