YEAH LETS GO I'm most excited for this because I love seeing outside reactions, and getting new perspectives. or people seeing stuff I missed. absolutely amazing it should be noted the pilot had different VA's than the actual show does! Y'ALL TRAUMATIZED HIM WITH VERBALASE? 😭 29:53 he just has a lot of fluff
Well, that's interesting. The eggs that said #A1 and #13 together was a reference to a studio code and an inside joke in media. It refers to the classroom number of the Character Animation Program at the California Institute of the Arts (CalArts). It appears in several Disney and Pixar properties.
@@Opmehh124he says in one of the first episodes on Amazon "the chest fluff everyone thinks are tits" when he's talking about having the legs, and stamina, lung capacity, etc.
Fun fact: Niffty is 22, died in the 1950s(hence the poodle skirt) and is one of the only characters Alastor considers a close friend and allows to touch him! There is a theory that she died in a lobotomy, hence her 1 eye. It would also make sense given that most lobotomy patients in the 1950s were young women. But that’s just a theory- a GAME THEORY
TIL. i thought angel dust referred to cocaine, since he's shown snorting it in the poison MV and katie killjoy called it "booger sugar." it also looked like a baggie of white powder and i thought it came in a gallon-sized jug of liquid (WKUK reference)
40:22 “There’s not a single hint…” moments after he had paused on a scene where picture frames in the background showed her with the name plate saying, “Lilith” lol
The sister show, Helluva Boss, explores more the hirearchy of Hell and the different layers along with who lives within them and who rules them of course. Sinners cant access the other layers so I doubt Hazbin is going to go there.
Well Charlie or Lucifer might for some buisness, it's also possible they could bring some of the other characters since they can quite easily pull strings
@@brucejedilee5290 It's not that Sinners (human souls) aren't allowed to go to the other rings, but that Sinners can only exist in the Pride Ring. The list of people Charlie could bring with her on business trips is extremely short.
@edilee5290 It make sense really. Lucifer is directly responsible for Sinners going to Hell as he gave Eve the apple. They are his responsibility. This just make sure it stays his responsibility. Hellborn also can't respawn like Sinners. If they are killed, they stay dead. With the weakest Sinners being ranked higher than Hellborn (with nobles being the only exception), limiting them to the Pride Ring also mean they can't mess with the other rings. Edit : I said "apple" because that's what's popularized, but really it was an unnamed fruit. I do believe that it was an apple in this show, though.
@@MastarNinja Well rank isn't just about power from what I've heard? There are many Imps who would rip your average sinner a new one in a fight. It's more a matter of status
So those symbols around Alastor are from voodoo. His background includes that he's creole, from New Orleans, and was a practitioner of voodoo among many other things.... including being a serial killer. He's belongs in he'll but it doesn't stop me from loving his character 😊
Interesting, because the snake wrapped around a cane is a symbol I recognize, both from modern hospitals and hebrew mythology, it's supposed to represent healing or the occult (which were often one and the same back in the day)
@@RistaakSimilar meaning in voodoo kind of! The snake coiled around the staff is the vèvè of Loko, the Loa of plants, including, you guessed it, medicinal herbs and poisonous plants.
Part of why Alastor is so scary is that he is always in control. He is calm and just exudes authority. He doesn't scare. He doesn't run. He saunters. Through hell. He almost never swears. He is charming to a fault and extremely well spoken. All of that adds up to this dude is scary as fuck.
To clear up some confusion: Lucifer *is* the king of Hell, as hell was created when he Fell, but there are other powerhouses at play. He has the most control over the Pride ring (due to being the prince of pride as well as the King of hell). The other rings are ruled by their respecvtive sins as well (these get explored in the sister series Helluva boss). So Pride is ruled by Lucifer, Wrath is ruled by Satan (mentiont in Helluva, hasn't appeared yet) Gluttony is ruled by Beelzebub (appeared in Helluva) Greed is ruled by Mammon (appeared in Helluva) Lust is ruled by Asmodeus (appeared in Helluva) Envy is ruled by Leviathan (has not been mentioned or appeared in Helluva) and Sloth is ruled by Belphegor (mentioned in Helluva, hasn't appeared yet) Other then the princes, we also have the Ars Goatia, which is a powerful movement of hellborn princes and princesses, they seemingly seem to rule over the universe more-so then over hell (also explored in Helluva boss) And then we also have the Overlords, which are sinners. The overlords can be seen as being closer to Mayors then as actual rulers. They cannot leave Pride due to being Sinners (only Hellborns can visit the other rings of Hell), so they're ruled by Lucifer, but they can have a curtain power over areas within the Pride ring. If we look at Hell's hirarchy, it looks like this: 1. Lucifer 2. Lilith and Charlie 3. The other deadly sins 4. The Ars Goatia 5. The Overlords 6. Regular sinners 7. Most known Hellborn demon species (such as Succubi and Incubi) 8. Imps and Hellhounds (also Hellborn demons)
There is a hierarchy for the powers in Hell, in the Hazbin Hotel Universe. Most of this was clarified by the creators of Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss offscreen. At the top of the hierarchy is Lucifer the King of Hell, and his family. Just below Lucifer is the Seven Deadly Sins, powerful beings who each rule one of the rings of Hell. Lucifer is both the King of Hell and the Deadly Sin of Pride, meaning he is in charge of the Pride Ring. The Pride Ring is also the Ring where Sinners manifest when they die, and Sinner Demons are not able to leave the Pride Ring and visit other Rings of Hell. Below the Seven Deadly Sins, are the royals and nobles of Hell, also known as the Ars Goetia. They are powerful Hellborne Demons. Below the Ars Goetia are the Sinner Demon Overlords, whom are powerful Sinner Demons. Just Below the Overlords, are other Sinner Demons. Below the other Sinner Demons are the lower ranked Hellborne Demons, like Succubi, Imps, and Hellhounds. We don't quite know all the races of Hellborne Demons, or how they are all ranked, but we do know that Hellhounds are the lowest in the hierarchy and Imps are just one level higher, whereas Succubi are relatively high ranked compared to other Hellborne Demons. The reason Sinner Demons are more highly ranked than non-royal Hellborne Demons, despite being confined to the Pride Ring, is because they just continue growing in strength and power the longer they exist and by collecting souls through making deals and contracts (which are enforced by the magic powers of Hell, and therefore cannot be broken). Sinner Demons take on forms based on their sins, personalities, appearance while alive, and how they died. Additionally, Sinner Demons do not age, cannot reproduce, and if they are killed, their consciousness is scattered in pain but will eventually remanifest. So, Sinner Demons are effectively immortal, with one exception. If a Sinner Demon is killed by an angelic weapon, they will just be scattered in everlasting pain, unable to remanifest (and that is one of the reasons we see eyes and mouths everywhere, those are the remains of Sinner Demons killed by angelic weapons). Hellborne Demons do age (though slowly over the course of centuries and millenia), but they do not die of old age, and they can reproduce (and it is possible for there to be hybrid race Hellborne Demons), and if they are killed they are just gone as far as we know. The Angels are only allowed to kill Sinner Demons, to control overpopulation and prevent uprisings. They are not allowed to kill Hellborne Demons. Also, Angel Dust is gay, Vaggie is Lesbian, Charlie is bisexual, Alastor is aro-ace. Charlie and Vaggie are girlfriends. We do not know the canon sexual orientation of Husker, or Nifty, or Sir Pentious, or Cherri Bomb, but we do know that at the very least Nifty and Cherri Bomb do like boys, and that Sir Pentious does like girls, so they are either heterosexual, bisexual/pansexual, grey-sexual, or abrosexual.
Where did you get the information about where the dinner demons go when they are killed by angelic weapons? Is there a podcast or Twitter post talking about it? Cuz I’d love to see it!
@@frowny_face2349 Mostly a series of twitter posts over the last few years, since the Pilot released and during the airing of Helluva Boss. RU-vid does not allow comments to link away from RU-vid, but you should be able to find all the twitter posts and other content in the references on the wiki page for Demons on the Hazbin Hotel wiki.
16:41 "He's a handsome dude". Yeah Jeffrey Dahmer was that. Charismatic and seemingly harmless too from what I understand. I'm sure the many people he killed and ate would tell you what he was really like if they could.
I feel like I'm the only one who's really not into his looks. They hella played him up in the image (which is really well drawn). Anyway, rip any real world mentions of awful people after this and the one time in S1E1 of Helluva.
48:13 A113 is an animation Easter egg, that lots of media, notably Pixar films, have in their animations. If I recall correctly, it is the room number to an animation classroom at Cal-Arts.
So yeah, Alastor's voice is naturally like that, and the more genuine he is, the less of a Radio filter his voice has. That doesn't mean he isn't being genuine at all normally, but it does mean that in the moments the filter is gone is when he's at his MOST genuine. Also, love this. Charlie: "Inside of every demon is a rainbow~" Alastor: "Inside of every demon is a lost cause~"
The pace of the series slows down to a more normal speed. The pilot is so jam packed because animation is expensive and time consuming (without big studio money), and this was the proof of concept. They were trying to showcase as much of Vivienne Medrano's vision for the show as possible, in just 30 minutes.
Don’t know if you’re interested but the guy who did the singing voice for Alastor in the pilot made a song called Insane that is well worth the listen.
@@kaylaschropp7503 Gabe Brown, also known as Black Gryph0n, is the singing voice of Alastor in the pilot, and yes, made Insane, along with Thank You and Goodnight, and many other songs.
The pilot is an amazing way to see the overall difference in quality between an indie production and one backed by a big studio with good direction. The writing is better, along with music, SFX, character work, art, and the rest. This is no means a jab at the original pilot and its ideas, but truly 5 years or so of experience does make something better. Enjoyed the reaction Matt! Can't wait for you to see the rest!
47:25 Oh definitely, I absolutely adore the way the show is structured for that reason, nothing exists for no reason and there’s no “filler”-it jumps to the next plot point right away. Part of that is probably because the creator happens to be ADHD herself.
@Mattables Omg! Hallo! I just finished telling my husband you're my favorite reactor. So genuine and astute. I hope you have a great rest of the week.😊
YESSSS! A new adventure! And knowing that you absolutely ADORE Charlie, this is gonna be SO much better! 1:28: No no! That's good! I love that! 17:18: RIGHT!? It's like they forget who she is! XD

I prefer the reactions that are more thought out even if they are longer. Some of the reactions I have seen for this is also an hour long. Also if I am not mistaken the symbols always surrounding Alastor is voodoo symbols. Your reactions are fantastic. Thank you for posting!
2:20 I'm Always Chasing Rainbows is a song from an old Broadway show called Oh Look! in 1918. It fits the open scene sooooo well, and Charlie's VA is very good.
A1 13 = A113. The classroom at CalArts where most people in animation started learning animation. Pixar puts it in all of their films. It's in Disney films. DreamWorks. Mission Impossible 4 has a reference to it because Brad Bird (The Incredibles) directed it.
Longform content is my jam so don't even worry about it lol. I loved watching every minute of this. Parry Gripp is the one who wrote the music for the pilot and for season 1 they brought in Sam Haft from The Living Tombstone.
I absolutely love the fact that there are No cuts or anything just a full reaction to everything, and your focus on details🥹 youre my fav person to watch reactions now, cant wait for more hazbin
So happy you are enjoying the show! You are going to have so much FUN watching the first season! It also zooms by quickly and has two songs per episode, for a total of 16 songs for eight episodes.
Bro this just came out as I- like- JUST finished binging through you watching the songs- you have a new subscriber btw, I love your positive energy and how invested you are in the show lol
A113 is an animation joke most commonly associated with Pixar. Most of the animators that started the studio met in that classroom, so they hide it in films as an easter egg.
Here we go!!!! Oh my gosh I am so exited to see your reaction to the whole series!!!! I found you through the "Poision" reaction and I instantly fell in love with your content. As Alastor once said, "This is going to be very entertaining!"
I can only speak for myself, but i say that the long run time of this is a win! You're one of the better reactors ive seen, and you take the time to analyze the details, acknowledge and catch on to things some others don't, and have a happy balance of praising and talking yet playing it through as well. I'm excited to see more as you discover this show and maybe helluva boss (the sister show here on RU-vid). Super stoked!
honestly alastor is WAYYY scarier in the pilot than the show like id be shitting bricks if i saw what vaggie was talking about in comparing to the show
I mean he's still a serial killer, cannibalistic sinner demon, who's also a overlord. And he's very scary and mysterious, he might also be the "Next big villain" along with the "Vees" and "Lilith" and "Lute"
yeah, just mainly the pictures and how he's portrayed is so much scarier than what they did with the show. still LOVEEE what they did, just wish he was a bit scarier
I am glad to see you finally digging into these because I'm super excited to see your reactions! You picked up on soo much more than I did on my watch through of the series. Can't wait for more!
Yes, I was already waiting for it!!!, you did very well in watching the pilot, now you have a little more context about the series and its plot. Now I'm dying to see you react to the series, I guarantee you will have a lot of fun, and you will enjoy the incredible songs.
The original cast did one more song kind of recently called “Thank You And Goodnight” because sadly they did not make it to the full series. While that was controversial, they seem cool with it saying it’s just showbiz, but it’s a nice sendoff for them!
with THIS alastor his voice becomes more radio like or more normal depending on his sincerity(at least that's one theory if i remember right), also you NEED to watch "thank you and goodnight after this", not everything from the pilot carried over to the actual series btw
For anyone who did not catch it, the #A1 and #13 on the eggs was an easteregg (yes, they did...) A113 is a call back to the animation classroom where many animators learned the finer arts of the craft. It can also be seen in almost every Pixar movie, along with some Disney. It's snuck in by a LOT of industry insiders.
I'm living vicariously through you being able to experience this show for the first time again. ❤ I've seen the show 10 times already and I'm still obsessed. How you react is literally how I was when I first saw the whole thing. I loooved the details and lore around the show!! Can't wait for the next one!!!
A little detail that you picked out a few times. X's on people - X's on sinners are showing the spots where the lethal damage was done from which the sinners died. For example, Alastor was shot in the head by a hunter that mistook him for a deer when Al was doing his voodoo ritual in the woods (that is also why he has antlers and hooves btw)
16:40 - "It's Dahm Good" Wasn't Jeffrey Dahmer a Cannibal serial killer? Can't help but wonder if that's a reference. EDIT: Now that I checked the hair better, yeh I think it is absolutely a reference!
Just found your Hazbin song reactions the other day and was so looking forward to this! I love the stopping to point things out that I didn’t notice. Thank you for reading the whole cheating husband and ape story on the news show XD I’ve been wanting to know what that said but haven’t made the time yet. This was great, excited to see more!
YES! I am SO excited! I found you through the Poison reaction and have been Eagerly Awaiting you delving into the show ( as well as enjoying the other reactions that led up to it ) since then. I love your commentary and how excited you are about the show and characters and the AMAZING music!
I want nothing but long episodes. Genuinely and truly. Just subbed - found you like 2 hours ago and just binged all the hazbin content. So very very looking forward to more!!!
After watching the pilot and all s1 eps, Alastor has shown to be an ambiguous(though savvy, sophisticated and cunning) and somewhat terrifying and antagonistic character though not the main villain. Despite the many red flags and few scenes showing his somewhat humane side, I as well as many others(Alastor fan or not) can't help but want to have faith that Alastor won't hurt and be an enemy to Charlie and the hotel which he has poured so much effort into and probably grown attached to maybe.
The A1 and #13 eggs at the end are a reference to the classroom number (A113) where many Pixar employees studied at the California Institute of the Arts.
Oh man oh man I'm so excited!!! Don't worry about a longer reaction I absolutely love it when you pause and share your thoughts!! I found your channel a few days ago and I absolutely love your reactions and I've been really looking forward to you starting the show. Excited for you to get into it : )
Ive been so excited for more reactions!!! Youre one of my fav reactors of Hazbin stuff, you seem like youre having so much fun and its so nice seeing new and fresh reactions to it!
Loved this video sm!! I’ve literally been rewatching anytime i can until episode 1 comes out! How are we supposed to wait A WHOLE WEEK for new episodes!!??
41:00 im pretty sure its voodoo symbols (i could be wrong, i tried to look for a comment mentioning but no one did so) Bc i know hes seen with voodoo symbols in an artwork from Viv (bc some people tried to get mad about it)
Loved your reaction! And don't worry about the videos being long, I think it's so much better watching you break stuff down, rather than just glancing over a lot of it :) Keep it up!
Yeess!! 🎉🎉 I've been waiting for this. I would scream with happiness, but everyone in my house is asleep And God, I hope I understand you, because without knowing English, I will watch without translation from neural networks.. (I remember the pilot's translation by heart, so it's okay :))
You got so many things right but so many wrong too lmao i love your reactions and i love to see how you analyze all the details, it makes me happy that people notice them! I'll be waiting for the the other episodes, i know that you're going to love all season! I really want to see your reactions to some specific moments ❤❤❤
There is one more song I do recommend, it came out about 1 week before the release of the show, “Thank You and Goodnight” it’s the farewell song from the pilot voice team (the voice cast was changed from the pilot)
I'm so excited for you to watch the full show! I think you'll love seeing more of all the characters, especially with four years of development behind them.
I enjoyed your reactions to the music videos, and I'm glad to see this was just as fun. I've been kind of binging reactions to this, and you've got a fun, unique commentary style. I also love that you stop and enjoy all the tiny little details - there are a LOT in this show, just like in its sister show Helluva Boss. Thanks for making it, hope you keep enjoying the show, and I'll look forward to your next reaction.
I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but I, for one, don't mind the longer videos bc I'm just super excited to see a reactor take their time with this show and look at all the little details it has to offer!
I'm personally down to watch super long reaction videos from you. Your commentary is so fun and it's really nice seeing the way you engage with the show. Also you have paused on and talked about elements of the show I never noticed before and probably never would have if not for your videos, so thank you!
At 48:11 - the '#A1' and '#13' is a nod to the Pixar Code- their first studio was Room-A113 at the University of California [if I recall], and the code 'A113' appears in every Pixar movie. A lot've indie animations like to reference that
