because Viv herself has pretty much admitted that HB and Hazbin are just her seething at her religious parents. she doesn't want to depict demons as legitimately evil, just quirky and alternative. what we know about Hazbin proves that she's going for "hell good, heaven bad" in terms of lore. another factor is Vivzie's audience, i.e. 15 year old white girls on twitter, depicting anything truly evil or "problematic" risks damaging her relationship with that very sensitive but profitable group. think of how she later disavowed the Jeffrey Dahmer joke in the Hazbin pilot, or how she rushed to go "nuh uh he was 18 the whole time" on twitter when people thought Barbie was a pedophile. she wants hell to be something safe both in-universe and for her fans to watch
>Make a show about demonic entities
>Don't actually make them evil or malicious
This b***h is just making a pornographic Paradise Lost.
Milton didn't actually make his demons good or heroic, that was just some cope interpretation William Blake came up with 200 years later.
That's not what I said.
Paradise Lost is historical kino though.
What
said. In no way are Satan and demons good. They are humanized, but it's clearly stated Satan is an hypocrite who will try and ruin everything to spite God.
The original word "daemon" in greek was connotatively neutral, with good daemons (eudaemons) and evil daemons (cacodaemons).
Where did she admit this
a couple tweets, I don't have the screenshots on hand but you can probably find them if you go through Hazbin threads in the archive. there was one where she brought up her father's bigotry and another where she stated she was "reclaiming hell"
I'm not a Christian, but it'd be extremely funny if Christianity was true and she ends up in Hell, and Beelzebub takes personal offence with the fact he was turned into a loose fox woman so he skins her and throws her into a pit full of salt
lmao I can't say you're wrong. honestly if these demons are real quite a few have good reason to be pissed at her. Stolas being reduced to a submissive yaoi sad boy, Lucifer being a non-threatening goofy twink, and I don't know how she'll portray Mammon next episode but I doubt it'll be flattering for him
Well good know, get digging now Anon. We will be waiting for YOU to find the tweets
Pathetic.
This is such a smoothbrain take. Instead of rationalizing that maybe bigotry and fundementalism is influenced by hell they just turn to basic b***h contrarianism.
I'm not even offended, I'm not religious and drawing demons as cool or kickass is great. But at one point you have to have some retrospective that trying to rewrite common sense or perception into the opposite is a very long form of cope.
"basic b***h contrarianism" is genuinely all Vivzie is capable of, though I also feel like even if she had the ability to write something meaningful or divisive she'd still stick to what her hell shows are now. clearly the anti-christian cope aspect is earning her an absurd amount of fans
>the whole Zoophobia chapter where is just Vivian shit talking christianity
I thought she loved her wealthy family. She benefited from it, after all.
So she could make her gay relationship stories and cringy music numbers a reality.
that's not what I've heard, besides you can use someone's money without loving them for it
>I thought she loved her wealthy family
I want you to look at every father in Helluva Boss real quick that isn't Blitz or Stolas
Vivzie makes sense when you understand that she's Patrick Bateman but if he was a woman and got into theater and art instead of murdering people. She's a fricking soulless yuppie ex-Protestant.
She's wearing rebellion as a skin, like every other sheltered twee softcore faux-punk of her ilk. It's like how the original Church of Satan, for all its faults, was at least genuinely committed to egoist ethics and the subversion of traditional morality, while The Satanic Temple is just genteel secular humanism in a funny hat.
I find the worship of Satan by ex-Protestants to be so revealing of their ignorance and stupidity because they always forget Judaism and the original context of Satan: God's prosecutor, the Angel with the special appointed role as the Adversary to test mankind. He's not evil, he's just the shoulder devil (or technically, the shoulder angel) offering you the choice of evil. And if you do wrong, he rats on you to God like a divine narc.
But Protestants and ex-Protestants are cringe and would rather read Bible fanfiction and LARP once more about the Divine Comedy or Paradise Lost.
You can tell that she has never known actual subversion or challenge to her fundamental worldview. Straight-laced, middle class morality is the water she swims in, she's so immersed in it she doesn't even perceive it, and rebellion is just fun, kooky aesthetic she puts on to signal that she's one of the cool kids.
>atheist because muh parents/school
everytime KEK
Monkeys paw is Viv makes a Jack adaptation with a whole musical holes episode
good Lord anon, for the sake of everybody involved, I hope your monkey paw has shrivelled up already.
>But do it responsibly ok:)
>Remember your rules:)
I don't remember that
The Epicurean school should have been eradicated thousands of years ago.
>Hell
>No rapists, racists or bigots
>Everyone is gay
Huh?
>No rapists, racists or bigots
Who said that this sends you too hell?
Rape is usually adultery, which is a sin, also spousal rape probably isn't aligned with Colossians 3:19.
Racism (most cases) and bigotry are types of hatred, which also makes them sins.
>Racism (most cases) and bigotry are types of hatred
Are they though? You don't have to hold hatred for someone to be a racist, way back when racism was a norm then it was because whites saw themselves as superior to blacks which isn't hatred.
>whites saw themselves as superior to blacks which isn't hatred.
Sounds like pride, which is even worse than hatred according Christianity.
Free Palestine.
Not pride if you are objectively better.
Is it pride to consider yourself faster than a cripple?
maybe not faster, but it's certainly pride to consider yourself better than a cripple
literally yes you dipshit.
It's not hell, it's Tumblr heaven disguised as hell.
Isn't Valentino rapey?
its been retconned. it's too problematic
But they had a whole music video about it.
I'm pretty sure it hasn't, not yet at least. edgy stuff like rape is allowed as long as it's to make one of vivzie's woobies look sympathetic as far as I can tell
>racists or bigots
How is that in one line with rapists or worthy of hell you absolute homosexual?
That's the point, anon. In keeping with the religious obsession of unexisting anything that is verboten (problematic) and making every character a quirky diverse gay, they have inadvertently created a scenario that says that most of the people who go to hell are homosexuals.
If they aren't in hell they are all in heaven. That's the implication
>Queen of gluttony
>Isn't morbidly obese
>Doesn't have a huge apron gut obscuring her legs and crotch
>No fat ass
Exactly. Everyone thinks they eat/drink/party as much as Bee and they'll be fine.
She should've had two forms. One where she's hot and tempting and another where she's nikocado avocado.
Furaffinity got you covered on that. Also if I made a story with heaven and hell i would rather both of them be buttholes rather than one being good and the other bad, frick favoritism.
Why does Gluttony have to be fat? Why can't a character who's supposed to represent Gluttony also be the skinniest most malnourished character you ever seen?
>Why can't a character who's supposed to represent Gluttony also be the skinniest most malnourished character you ever seen?
Because that's Famine.
That's the other way you can go with it, but it really only works for the dire, cautionary side of gluttony. The jovial, tempting, pleasurable side of gluttony pretty much has to be fat, otherwise it might as well be lust or avarice.
Lust is Want of X
Greed is Taking of X
Gluttony is Consumption of X
if it were just someone super hungry all the time that'd fit Lust better
if I didn't know better, I'd think you were expressing disappointment instead of critiquing the character design
You don't know better, anon, you really don't.
Viv is an awful artist that can't go outside her character comfort zone. It's why bee(l) is another generic dog.
>Dog
That's clearly a desert fox
what, Vivzie can't draw fat people? surely she could just look in a mirror and use it as reference
I still remember the upset me and fellow architect had over this insult. It's not even that Viv is incapable of drawing women that aren't stick or hourglass since chubby owl lady exists.
Its probably because Bee is basically her fursona or something and making her fat would hurt her ego so she has to by a skinny hourglass wolf woman.
It's like how in jthm hell isn't actually eternal torment it just sucks because the people there are shitty
Nether her nor Loona ever vore anyone on-screen, what a fricking WASTE
The """symapthetic villain""" trend has been poisoning media once creators found out people want to frick their evil characters and that makes them feel bad for some unknown reason.
If you survive you ultimately can indulge in more
I had a dream the other day where Palpatine showed up in Hazbin Hotel and kinda just took over.
He then sent Vader on a bunch of little quests involving all the demon lords and characters and shit and Vader was really fricking annoyed at them because he found them fricking moronic and annoying and did his stupid vader monologue about the fact that not even in the afterlife he still cant be with padme cos shes in heaven and shit.
I think they ended by building a death star and using it on something but I don't remember what.
This premise sounds funnier than the actual show.
I would watch the shit out of this if it was a show
Guys c’mon stop acting crazy. Does she look like someone who would hate Christianity?
well between you and me, she at least looks like someone who has personal reasons to not corelate being fat and the sin of gluttony
I hate dykes for making the middle-finger cringe
Is this the zoomer version of the peace sign? She looks like one of those weebs at a comicon trying to make an "Ugoo am I kawaii sempi-desu" pose.
THIS IS MY FIGHT SONG
TAKE BACK MY LIFE SONG
Why does Vivzie REFUSE to draw fat characters? What is she so fat that she can't have a character bigger than her? (Not that I'm complaining)
She literally doesn't know how. In all my years following her she never really deviates from a single body type.
>no racists, nazis or rapists in hell (the worst are murderers)
>full of gays and people who did drugs in past life, though
>incarnation of gluttony advises everyone against overindulgence
>incarnation of lust says rape is bad
>arch demon Stolas is just a normal middle aged guy, and even adultery isn't his fault(stella's is a b***h)
>imp supremacist striker is villain because.....because he is bad ok?!
The supposed demons are basically normal people who have little vices here and there lmao. Facilitation-tier writing jesus christ.
Were you really expecting a 20 something year old middle class white girl to write something that would trigger people? These people can't even use the word rape, they're like literally scared from words and still dare to write a story, that's how pathetic they actually are. Characters in Sartre's novels have more vice and potential towards evil than the "demons" of viv's depiction of hell which is just California with gay furries.
These threads were funny when people were being ironic. But sincerely. There are two reasons why Nazis / Rapists / Racism will not make it to the script
1. it's unnecessary. Imagine the convoluted writing that one would require to explain how racism still works in a world where no one even looks the same as their human form. Some things, no, a lot of things are better left to the imagination.
2. It's too in-your-face. How do you write about a rapist? Genuinely, what does a rapist even look like? do you expect some anime tier bastard to cackle about how much he loves drunk pussy? if none of the main characters are Rapists then there's literally no reason to write about them. We do know of rapist characters (Valentino) but only when they're relevant
What this writing looks like in practice is like that one scene in Beauty and the Beast live action when the servants explain why they're also condemned. it gives off Who asked vibes.
Tbh this show already has enough stuff like that, at least with Ozzie it served to characterize him a bit
Viv is in her 30s now.
Oof that’s just sad
When she reaches 40 the window for kids and a family is gone unless she’s fine raising Chris Chan
You make me wonder what Vivziepop's offspring would turn out like.
More specifically she's going to be 31 in a few days.
>What did Viv mean by this? Why is Hell so watered down and plebbit?
I think what Viv was trying to go for is that the real monsters in hell are the former human sinners, not the hellborn demons who are only a bit less moral on average than most humans.
Its why majority hellborn areas are just slightly nastier versions of earth whereas majority sinner areas are dsytopian anarchist nightmares.
I originally thought she was just loona in her super saiyan form. What a fricking lazy ass design. Why not just make her a bee?
Hurts like hell when you step on lego with your bare feet.
Oh! So that's where I put it.
I've felt that pain. You deserve this..
She wouldn't have a chance if I pull out a lego knife on her!
Lego Butterflyknives are now on sale: Stabs like a knife but amplified by the pain of stepping on legos. Call now to get 25% off.
Heh
Post her bare feet.
They could've had her turn into a fricked up bug monstrosity rather than just get bigger in size. I can't believe b***hboy Stolas has a cooler true form than the second-in-command of Hell
If Viv really wanted to be subversive, she should have made the lords have the opposite virtue of each sin they represent (i.e. the lord of Lust is a total prude) as some form of punishment.
Tell a story about the day-to-day life and shenanigans of Queen Bee.
I think the idea around Bee is that she's more an adaption of how the kind of people that get you addicted to drugs or other things actually act IRL. She's addicted to partying and tries to seem like someone "responsible" but the episode clearly shows her multiple people ignoring her and still going to the extreme, one of the main characters included. She's someone that wants to seem like the "chill vibey girl" but she's still making everyone take part in toxic behaviors without realizing, which is much more of a realistic portrayal than the "hey kid u want some drugs?" thing.
