Is no one gonna talk about how absolutely wild it is that VOX DEI includes the word “furor”?

2025-11-25 20:09:03 +0000 UTCI think my favourite part of watching Mortius is when he gets super excited about something and does his lil spin. I just smile every time <3

2025-11-24 00:42:24 +0000 UTCI consider "Easy" to be the best song in the show, no contest (maybe recency bias, but I don't think so). Semi-related, I really wish Lucifer had a full song of playing up his bluff, because that part was awesome, but I hate how the Vox part makes me feel. Unrelated, TIL chipotle is a pepper and not just a restaurant in America.

2025-11-22 20:26:12 +0000 UTCSo not so fun fact the contact above Lucifer's at the end is the welsh spirit of death. And everyone else on the list in that scene is dead other than Lucifer which might imply he might get really hurt next episode

2025-11-19 05:14:40 +0000 UTCOkay, I don’t see anyone having said it outright so, the Sinners in question during “Bad With Us” are all the other Overlords from the meeting with Carmilla and Velvette in Season 1.

2025-11-18 14:44:20 +0000 UTCVox Populi literally means The Voice of the People
Marcia
2025-11-18 13:10:15 +0000 UTCVox calling Lucifer Lu was also an indicator, as this is what Lucifer said V should call him

2025-11-15 16:12:51 +0000 UTCStill convinced that Vox was some kind of televangelist in life with the “movement/cult” thing
King Clownbot
2025-11-15 13:38:58 +0000 UTCI think a lot of those characters we're seeing at the beginning of episode 5 are the overlords from season 1 of Hazbin Hotel.
White Tiger
2025-11-15 08:09:02 +0000 UTCAt the end of 6 Vox says "we have our power source." And from what we saw carmilla is building some kind of cage. My theory is that Vox is gonna trap lucifer and when Lu tries to break out Vox is gonna use that power as an attack. It would be an angelic attack and carmilla was using angelic steel to build it so the cage would hold Lu. Just a theory

2025-11-14 13:54:44 +0000 UTCMortius: "Imagine that in your childhood, growing up, you were *obsessed* with mustard." Me: "This is the chipotle rant isn't it" /lh
Felicity McDonald
2025-11-14 13:27:58 +0000 UTCAlso I would have been a lot more fascinated if they went the route of “lets try to convince hell that I actually could be a God” vs “lets trumpism my way into becoming ‘king’ of hell” because the first one feels like it fits 1. his cult leader past and 2. the fantastical nature that is hazbin’s world.

2025-11-13 23:35:37 +0000 UTCI have to say, I was a little disappointed by this episode. Even though Vox is definitely doing this for his own gain, throwing all the nazi references and casual racism into his songs felt honestly very forced and truly did not make much sense. He IS starting an uprising so he can gain from it, but the uprising itself is the result of a genocide, and painting that as equivalent to real life nazism and manifest destiny shit feels very… off. I love him being an actual villain, the power and cruelty is fascinating, but I feel like if Vivzie is going to put allusions to real life genocides and facism that we are actually currently experiencing, it needs to be done in a way that thematically makes sense. Comparing hell fighting back against heaven to nazi germany really does not fit the themes that have been established last season and in the first four episodes of this season (in terms of hey, maybe heaven was wrong to exterminate hell and they owe hell a lot more than an apology).
Ratatosk Clarke
2025-11-13 23:33:57 +0000 UTCThe overlords in the first song are from the meeting that Vee crashed where they find out angels can be killed. The one where Carmella kicks everyone out after Vee asking if she had a disclosure.
Mimi
2025-11-13 23:25:17 +0000 UTCI’m not trusting anything out of Vox’s mouth on principle so I’m with Charlie on the Lilith thing. Also what’s Baxter and Nifty’s ship name? They are perfect for each other Edit: I’m pretty sure the casino Husk is in is the one he had as an overlord, it’s themed around him. Also I’m seeing a theme of gambling addicted sinners having cards in their designs. Freaking love Keith David’s singing in this
Indigo
2025-11-13 22:23:47 +0000 UTCI was fully ready for him to go “PSYCH! It wasn’t an analogy! This was about mustard all along! Because that’s what mustard was for me lmao.”
Ink Inc
2025-11-13 19:54:52 +0000 UTCWhile Zeezi and the other overlords aren’t from Helluva Boss, Mammon’s bribe and the other gifts are from the other 6 sins from Helluva Boss. The deal to have Helluva Boss come to Prime (making it possible to have crossovers) was only announced to us about 6 months ago, so I suspect that none of the Helluva Boss characters are going to show up this season (unless they do something in the final 2 episodes)
Mittens Zora
2025-11-13 18:30:44 +0000 UTCmy take away from the ad rants: 1) mustard does not sound like a real word anymore now 2) I wasn't aware chipotle was anything other than a name, much less a type of pepper. Ya learn something new every day I guess lmao

CalvinTheCat
2025-11-13 16:32:15 +0000 UTCI think that is what Lucifer is for. They know that. But Lucifer is an angel, fallen yes but an angel nonetheless.
CalvinTheCat
2025-11-13 16:31:14 +0000 UTCsince there will be cross overs i hope Mortius gets to catch up soon. All the little hints already being dropped are fun
CalvinTheCat
2025-11-13 16:30:26 +0000 UTCWell, I liked the Spies are Forever ref :) The third episode really is so tightly written. Every V.A. is doing a stellar job, to be clear, (Keith David and Blake Roman in the second episode especially,) but man, Christian Borle’s back must be breaking from carrying this season. I’ve been a fan since Legally Blonde so I’m not surprised, but the range on this man is stunning, and this season really hinges on Vox being as incredibly well-acted he is. Also the animation??? Like yeah, all the wild tracking shots and spinning cameras and the insane ending to Vox DEI, but even just the character acting is so, so good. The animators and boarders have been putting their whole hearts and souls into it this season and it really, really shows. I feel like the only thing that would have made it tighter in ep three is if they did mention Pentious being redeemed and the crowd essentially went “why would we want to rub elbows with the people who’ve exterminated us?” Because, like the “you’re apologizing for genocide with gift baskets” thing, Vox may be using this all for his own awful means but there is a point at the core of this all that even Sera kept saying, which is “why should they ever want to forgive them, why should they want to live amongst angels anyway?” Carmilla and Vaggie obviously touch upon it, but it would have been cool to see that from the general populace, yanno? Also totally a nitpick but while the ending twist was an absolutely brutal gut punch that recontextualizes everything in such a chilling way, especially after how wonderful Losing Streak and the convo after was, I just keep going “then why did Vees hire Pentious to spy on the hotel season one of Angel was already under their hypnosis? That was the whole reason he joined the hotel.” I’m happy for any explanation they give, tbh, I just wish there was one. But hey, two episodes left, they may mention it, and it doesn’t really take away from how nauseating that was unless you’re a pedant like me. Despite the nitpicks, though, great episodes! Also yes the steam announcement!!! I already have a deck so I probably won’t pick it up, at least not for a while, but it looks like such a cool console, I’m so psyched that it just exists in general.

2025-11-13 16:26:45 +0000 UTCNever been to a Chipotle (not sure there are many in western europe) but i fully support this rant. I think?
CalvinTheCat
2025-11-13 16:18:45 +0000 UTCI just need you to know that in the german dub, Vox called Val speaking spanish "Taco language". Also i personally laughed so hard when Val hit him with the "I'm from fucking Florida" But man Hazbin is brilliant and writing Villains. They make you feel for them and underestimate them only to turn around and slap you in the face. Also did you notice that Val was upset about Angel being used like this by Vox? Its really fascinating that he has no problem abusing Angel but this is something he dislikes

Megan Smith
2025-11-13 15:42:44 +0000 UTCAll of the gifts on Lucifer's bed seem to be gifts from the other Deadly Sins, the rulers of the other rings of Hell, in Helluva Boss! And you can see their silhouettes in the pictures on Lucifer's wall! They collectively govern the Hellborn folks with this whole court thing, and Lucifer, despite being their leader, has not attended in a REALLY long time.
Paradoxgavel
2025-11-13 14:31:13 +0000 UTCDo you wanna know what’s really funny to me, even after these last batch of episodes, I still can’t fully take box as a serious threat against heaven because we’ve already established that you sinners cannot get up to heaven, unless you are either redeemed or an angel comes down via a portal. So, maybe I’m too much of a realist who loves this show, but literally the angels don’t have to do jack. They could just stay in heaven and let the sinners just run around honestly. Even Val asked how they were supposed to get to heaven and Vox didn’t even answer him so like is this really a threat? Even after the last episode, it didn’t even feel like this was much of a threat because you still have no guarantee that you can get to heaven. That’s also low-key why I find his colt background to be so good and very interesting because there’s a reason why still exist even today, because they’re effective even if the court leader is literally spewing nonsense

2025-11-13 13:28:46 +0000 UTCYes. I very much want to know why snek boy can't go visit hell.
NoBody
2025-11-13 10:55:50 +0000 UTCYea vox is literally using the name of someone that can't contradict him that the other sinners look up to to prop himself higher...
Phoenix Mackenzie
2025-11-13 10:37:44 +0000 UTCZeezi and Maestro were at the Overlord meeting in Season 1, when we first met Carmilla and Zestial! Vox is getting some heavy hitters for his movement. Also, you'll have context for the name Mammon and a bunch of the silhouetted portraits in Lucifer's room (and contacts on Charlie's phone) when you watch Helluva Boss. :)
Artist Deco
2025-11-13 10:04:14 +0000 UTCVox Populii into Vox Dei (voice of the people/voice of god) are some of the best lyricism in Hazbin. I love the homonym of furor/Fuhrer, they're not pulling punches by making Vox the awful awful AWFUL person he is.
Louise Rigg
2025-11-13 09:50:06 +0000 UTCThe Prime Video youtube channel posts all of the songs; it might be worth putting links to them in the descriptions of the videos to make it easier for the audience to follow along with the analysis.

2025-11-13 09:05:51 +0000 UTCAlso, not a joke but another piece of foreshadowing: angel missing therapy because he's "had a headache" then E6 the reveal of vox making him an unwilling spy...

Leilani Tuala
2025-11-13 07:04:23 +0000 UTCObsessed by the implication that Velvette brought Alastor into the dressing room to hang with her & Val— Al is FOR SURE talking smack to drive that wedge further between the Vees. Vox can’t be the most powerful with a team shenanigans fr

2025-11-13 05:29:17 +0000 UTCThe dinosaur lookin girl isn’t from Helluva! however there’s a good few references to it in Lucifer’s room. I’d love to see you react to Helluva Boss but idk if that’s in the cards or not, I’m admittedly very in and out as a patron and am not in the discord or anything
SleepyEliArt
2025-11-13 05:26:18 +0000 UTCI saw someone point out on twitter that the first hypnotizing scene looks like it’s likely from Poison (since Angel is wearing the exact same robe and has drool on his face), and that’s why they showed Vox shaking Valentino’s hand near the end of the song when Angel’s singing “I’m filling up my glass but it’s always hollow”🥺💔

2025-11-13 03:14:26 +0000 UTCAfter a rocky midseason what an absolute banger set of two eps, two of the best in the show
Myeh
2025-11-13 03:11:47 +0000 UTCVox Populi might genuinely be my favorite song this season. This song is exactly what I wanted from a Vox villain song. Having him commandeer Lucifer’s song, and turn it into a Propaganda message to his audience was so good! Also, Vox Populi literally means “The voice of the people”! Then when Vox Dei starts, it’s exclusively a reprise of Lucifer’s King of Hell solo, but with Vox in the center! It’s just so peak! Episode 5 is so peak!

Kalyn Hanixman
2025-11-13 02:28:10 +0000 UTCMinor things I appreciate about the Chaggie stuff this episode. Like, yes there's still some petty stuff happening, but Charlie immediately gets Carmilla's attention off Vaggie when she sees Vaggie is triggered by Carmilla's words. While Charlie is still trying to hold onto her frustration, she does finally seem to realize that she's being the jerk here after that scene. And then of course I love when Vaggie tries to brush it all aside ("Its okay I still love you") Charlie flat out says that no, it's actually not okay that Charlie's been doing this. Which side note: Vaggie I know you love Charlie but your self esteem needs so much work honey.
BGTitan
2025-11-13 02:26:57 +0000 UTCI do appreciate that this show has the courage to, however hamfistedly, show the dangers of populism and propping up a charismatic despot who unites under fear with the promise of punishing a perceived enemy. It's particularly prescient at this time in the world, and it's good for the generation that's coming into the voting age to have entertainment media that might make them consider politics beyond a surface level
G_Rez
2025-11-13 02:07:02 +0000 UTCAlso something to notice when Vox is talking to the crowd and getting them further riled up, you can see his eye doing his hypnotic thing. So hes not just charming them, he's essentially brainwashing them.
Trash Goblin
2025-11-13 02:05:35 +0000 UTCOof. Yeah, Gambling and substances are things I too have to be careful with (family history) . I feel like that tension of the thrill of a possible win floods the dopamine in my ADHD brain. I do have safe outlets like virtual gambling that has no stakes beyond a ranked ladder and TTRPGs for that.
BronzeDionysus
2025-11-13 01:57:08 +0000 UTC18:17 This is a reference to someone in Helluva Boss. 56:25 Vox is once again bending the truth when talking about Lillith. Charlie says in Season 1 that she used her song to empower sinners so they could be stable/strong IN HELL, not to the point of rebelling against Heaven.
Jt Scott
2025-11-13 01:40:43 +0000 UTCSo the ones Vox is singing and recruiting are all overlords, we saw them for a bit at the last overlord meeting in season one before Velvette and Carmilla had their song.
