I like how you cut the music but keep the singing to avoid copyright. I'd rather have a capella singing than none. 4 years after the pilot, and the wait was so worth it. I'll miss the old voices, but the new voices are amazing. Lots of famous voices and Broadway stars. Also, I love the hypocrisy of Adam saying he's never made a mistake, when he's the one who committed the original sin. If anyone should be stuck down there it's him. Alex Brightman nailed it with "Hell Is Forever," though.
That moment you realize that Lucifer sent his daughter to the meeting instead of going himself was probably because he didn't want to deal with his wife's ex.
Alastor is a product of his time really. It's assumed he died during a time when TV was just starting out and radio was still dominant, hence his attitude towards the fancy new technology
@@Ashurman666Yeah, I didn’t think a Cannibalistic Serial Killer would be tolerated towards new ideas and technology. Alastor is basically just a Boomer.
@@dominator1914 He's not a cannibal, just a serial killer. The cannibalism idea was abandoned I think after the pilot. People gt the idea of him being a cannibal due to his planned appearance in Viv's previous project Zoophobia and a comic but it was never officiallized that he is indeed a cannibal. But yes that's exactly what Alastor is, a radio boomer. With enough power to subjugate all of hell if he wanted to.
Imps are the lowest of low in hell just (barely) above hellhounds and yes they are hellborn but they are counted as lower than them because other hellborns are higher status than them.@@sadisticspirit1460
@@missahippyplays It’s kinda strange to hear these songs without music and I don’t really think Vivzie herself would be bothering about uncensored songs in reactions, it’s more of an Amazon concern but they can still use more close-ups on faces with toned down volume on the background
@missahippyplays it's unnecessary for copyright since the only requirement is that they cut through it, and there are reactions that cut through it a lot less and could keep the music fine. But it is nice to hear the lyrics more clearly.
@@skylofter6840my head Canon is that the only thing actually there in the scenes is the singing and that's how it sounds to the characters in the show
So there's a lot of Broadway talent in this cast now because that's the vibe they're going for. There's also some crossover with Helluva Boss, which is a companion series that looks just as good as Hazbin but is more of a weird romance soap-opera story about imps and a few other types of hell-born demons. Vivzie's got a whole complicated social hierarchy for Hell worked out.
I find it amazing that you two having no previous info about this universe and you have the most interesting and enjoyable discussion after each episode.
Makes sense since her voice actress also played Cady in Mean Girls the musical, who starts out like Rapunzel in a way with being an optimistic, sheltered teen suddenly thrust into the real world.
very unlikely that the shows are going to crossover. Helluva boss is independent and Hazbin is A24 and Bento Box. While Viv still has control over what goes into the shows there prob wont be any cross over just easter eggs and voice actors. @@sugaxshyxtype
I actually find it really confusing, cause Katie's original voice actor plays Glitz and Glam on Helluva Boss, Viv's other show, which Brandon is on as well, so why didn't they just get her to return for that if they still work together?
I love how Roxy really loved Alex Brightman’s voice as Adam. I such a huge fan of his and I’m beyond excited he plays not just Adam but as the snake guy! ❤
Erika Henningsen (Charlie) played Cady in Mean Girls on broadway and Alex Brightman (Adam) played Beetlejuice on broadway, and Kimiko Glenn (Niffty) played Dawn in the play Waitress ( you might know her better as Penni Parker)!
Yeah, Charlie and Vaggie are together! Angel is a cis guy and is gay, plus a femboy and drag queen so the chest fluff confused people a bit sometimes, yeah. I don't think it's a spoiler bc I doubt it'll be brought up at any point and has been confirmed/discussed by Vivzie but Alastor is canon AroAce which finally some rep for us even if it's a crazy powerful scary deer overlord lmao! Actually I'm pretty sure Niffty, the little maid one, is the only canon straight character at the hotel right now. They don't really make a big deal out of discussing the sexuality of characters it seems or go out of their way to make the relationships extra super obvious, they just exist which is really nice! But Charlie and Vaggie are already confirmed and dating at this point and canon, and they all have canon sexualities already known: Charlie (bi), Vaggie (lesbian), Angel Dust (gay), Alastor (AroAce), Husk (Pan), and Niffty (Straight)
@@nstorm2415the aroace people I know (and I'm ace myself) are actually very outgoing! Not wanting to have sex with people has nothing to do with your sociability.
It’s funny how different Hazbin Hotel’s Hell is compared to something like Devil May Cry’s Hell. Also Dante would probably be one of the powerful mfs there like he would be way beyond Overlord status if he was actually evil and wanted power like Vergil.
@@enterthekyuubi Oh for sure. I’m pretty sure Dante already killed Lucifer and used him as a Devil Arm to defeat Berial in Devil May Cry 4. (Idk I haven’t played that one yet.)
I really love you guys for reacting to this 😭 I'm glad youre enjoying this so far 💖 I love your post commentary as well. Not all people actually try and understand the story they're trying to tell.
a good way to know more about the lore and how their universe works would be to watch the spin-off of hazbin hotel "Helluva boss" which is also really fun to watch and has already 2 seasons
I can say that the episode one seems to let us the audience view some aspects that Angels are the true villain and not demons. As Charlie’s Crew are the good guys with a goal in the life of changing souls. Also it seems quite adorable to compare Charlie and Vaggie to Harley and Ivy. 😄 Since the Pilot Ep explains on Charlie and Vaggie relationship to be canon of being lovers is a nice thing. So I can’t wait for next episode as it’s going to focus on Alastor. Then I believe 3rd is Vaggie, and 4th is Angel Dust and Husk story. So last the 5th Ep going to be a good one till 6th episode going to be coming in March with Invincible S2 continuing from the halfway point of the season. Also I have to state that Vaggie’s Name is shorten from Vagatha. 😅
The voice actor of katie killjoy is brandon rogers a youtuber and voice actor in another viziepop work Helluva boss. Helluva boss is is a spinoff of hazbin hotel and brandon voices the main character in that show.
The universe vivziepop made is so well done, but there’s already so much of it available on RU-vid with this spin off show called helluva boss, i highly recommend it if you wrap up hazbin and have an itch for more
Hii Reel Rejects I'm a huge fan by the way I love your Harbin Hotel reaction so much, keep up the good work guys, the characters and the animations are amazing, the voice actors did a great job voicing the characters.
I'm back again to recommend HELLUVA BOSS!! It's a spin off of this show free on RU-vid! I can't emphasize how funny it is. Brandon Rogers, a RU-vid og, is heavily involved in it and voice's one of the main characters.
I’m sure other people have pointed this out, but I love that in the initial commercial he made, the screen always goes a little staticky whenever Alastor’s hands come into view. Another cool detail is the animation style of the prologue. Some of the earliest animated films ever created were done with paper cut-outs (e.g. The Adventures of Prince Achmed by Lotte Reiniger), and it’s such a clever method to allude to that style to illustrate the beginnings of Hazbin’s world.
17:05 in case you are wondering, that's Brandon Rogers. He is a comedy skit creator who is also good friends with Vivienne. He also played Blitzo in Helluva Boss, Vivienne's other series
Alastor is portrayed as a Wendigoon, because of how he died in the swamp area and cannibalism. But he was a radio host and serial killer, but he got caught.
9:10 Love the little note you threw in😂 And don't worry it isn't the most clearly built relationship. It's there but it's not like they say the word girlfriend or partner yet so more people missed it than I think was expected😅 Looking forward to see your other reactions
Angel dust IS a drag queen but the way he looks now is just how he normally looks, he's not in drag for what you see in these eps, that's why the guy from the pilot as roxy said called him a "dragshow" because he is also known for his drag. His "boob" fluff is just part of his body as his "hell body" is based off of a spider
I’m looking forward to the rest of the reactions! I also suggest checking out Helluva Boss and its pilot, somewhat similar in tone and setting but with a lot more humor.
Los subtítulos 😢 me hacen llorar casi no hace eso para nosotros los que hablamos aún español muchas gracias por ese détalle me suscribo y gracias por tomarse la molestia y poner subtitulos en español
Yeah, I'd imagine the reason Katie's voice changed (and I mean silly reason, not realistic reason) was that Charlie inadvertently struck her in the throat during the scuffle in the pilot, permanently altering her vocal chords. 😆
I wish they had included the pilot with this premiere; it woulda helped in introducing this world and characters better. I had no idea that this was a thing from 4yrs ago. I just happened to see that the Reel Rejects were reacting to a new animated series. I knew nothing about this show. When I watched the premiere I felt something was off like I had missed something. 😂
“Angels don’t make mistakes” So we’re just going to ignore that Lucifer was an angel? Okay “I’ve never made a mistake in my life” You were just listing your mistakes
It truly blows me away with how much work, time, passion and love is put into this incredible series and the fantastic skill and world-building talent of Vivziepop herself, the cast, animation crew, music and production and studio that helped produce Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss. As an amateur artist myself, I can only be genuinely mesmerised with how far Vivziepop has come. I cannot wait to watch the show tomorrow and finally see her magnum opus come to life. ❤😈👼
"Cause Hell is forever whether you like it or not!" "But why?" ...uh...cause that's the punishment? That's kind of the rules from like...thousands of years ago XD Once Adam and Eve ate the fruit from the Tree of Knowledge that tainted humanity, so unless they're saved and go to Heaven they end up in Hell.
