I could go into depth as to why Hazbin Hotel’s pilot was significantly better than the actual series (minus voice acting and song quality) but will I?

Let’s speed run through just how the opening scene of both the pilot and episode 1 differs, and how the pilot is better.

So the pilot opens with Charlie singing solemnly, while we get a brief look into the aftermath of the extermination and how it affects different people (for example the Vees seemingly don’t care, different to the implication of Carmilla having the curtains closed during the extermination), specifically Charlie.

This entire scenes makes clear early on that this extermination thing really really upsets Charlie and makes her doubt herself and the world. It immediately grounds her character as one who has empathy and insecurity.

I would also like to add that I really like how the tower countdown thing resets to 365 so we are shown that the extermination is a yearly, devastating event.

On the other hand, the actual episode 1 opens with Charlie forcing exposition about her parents’ lore and then directly telling us everything that the pilot lets us infer.

> “I get pretty worked up after the extermination happens.” We’re only shown chaos in the background, rather than taken through that chaos. There’s no time to digest just how bad the extermination is and how it impacts hell.

Since viewers are new to the world and series, they don’t know how hell is like. The happy day in hell musical number later on makes it seem like that’s what hell is normally supposed to look despite it being the aftermath of an extermination.

This leads to Charlie’s motivations being weak. We know that the extermination is bad, sure, logically. But the opening scene fails to let us feel it the same way the pilot does.

If the extermination plays such a huge role in motivating Charlie’s actions, why is it only told to us super briefly?

Not only that, “pretty worked up” doesn’t even show through in Charlie’s action well. It’s just there to force Charlie to dump exposition. Compare this to pilot Charlie who cried while singing.

The issue with the Prime Hazbin Hotel is its pacing and the way it assumes you’ve watched the pilot and are a fan who already knows all about the series and characters. But it can’t do that. But it does, so execution wise it fails quite miserably.

Allat just for just the opening scene. I can go much further but I’m too lazy right now.

#hazbin hotel #other than the songs I’m not really enjoying the series #as an ex fan who loved the pilot and watched it religiously #im sorry its disappointing #and the only reason why people like it is because the series is just fanservice disguised as a proper cartoon #is this opinion controversial #what did they do to my goat alastor #or should I say deer ahaha my jokes are lame

uhm

i feel like enjoying a character shouldn't be a competition, like the "i like this character more than you!" stuff

anyone can enjoy and is allowed to enjoy a character, and those that are more educated on a character can educate those that enjoy the character but dont know as much about them. i personally dont think you need to draw tons of pictures or write tons of stories or fics or own a lot of merch of that character to be a "true fan" and "ultimate enjoyer" of the character

#not a vent #is this opinion controversial #sorry if it is #it is how i genuinely feel #fandoms and communities do not need to be aggressive or competitive over who is and isnt a real fan of a character imo

Queerbaiting sucks... but

I find it so affirming as a person who struggles with their romantic orientatation. I just live for that state of not quite friends/not quite lovers.

Like yes, they are partners, yes, they live and die for eachother, yes, every other relationship they have loses all meaning compared to them. But also no, they haven't kissed, and they don't want to kiss, and yet, somehow, every single word, every single glance, every single touch carries so much meaning and conveys so much love because this amount of platonic love is usually unheard of and they don't want the other to misunderstand. And I just- aaah, it gives me so much hope and reminds me that romantic love isn’t the only type of love worth experiencing and showing on screen/paper.

I do wish it was done intentionally and wasn’t just a product of homophobia and capitalism. Like I really, really hate the reason I get this representation. Like, it also leaves a somewhat sour taste in my mouth, because I can see that if the world was more accepting, it would probably be a romantic relationship.

(I sometimes see people calling queercoding queerbaiting, and just to make it clear, that isn't what i'm talking about)

having an offhand vent post go viral on tumblr dot com is a curse, except sometimes it's like the curses from paper mario the thousand year door that are useful and also really funny. you know how many people I pissed off because I suggested basic politeness be utilized when you're emailing a stranger or professional. this has been prime entertainment, would do it again

#like what do you mean this is apparently a controversial opinion #this has been so funny

What’s your biggest controversial ACOTAR take?

Mine is that I think under completely different circumstances, Rhys & Nesta would be so hot together. In a way that can only truly work in fanfic, where the only thing happening is pure, outright smut that doesn’t really lead anywhere. Enemies banging it out? Sign me up😏

(it’s still fuck canon Rhys though 🙏)
