Hazbin Hotel Ep 5
Ok wow Ep 5 (and 6) was such a ride.
It's so fun to dissect Alastor since he's pretty much the only one who's character is hard to pin right now.
I can easily believe that Lilith is the one he has a contract with (hence the on a leash comment). I can believe that he might or might not be there because of Lilith (either he's obeying Lilith or he's getting close to Charlie because that in some way will help him get rid of his leash). I can also believe that he is intentionally pissing Lucifer off.
BUT
The thing is, even with all of this, I really thought that the Alastor we would see was the same Alastor we saw who handled Vox with so much class. Someone did a mini analysis about their face off. Alastor was completely unbothered and in control of the whole situation. He didn't bother interrupting Vox and the whole encounter with Vox losing his top and Alastor keeping his cool definitely showed that Alastor won that round.
But with Lucifer, it's different. Lucifer is pathetic and desperate. It would be so easy for Alastor to rile him up while still being calm, but there's none of that here. Where's the manipulative persona? Rather, it even seems like Lucifer brought Alastor down to his level of pettiness.
There's visceral rage right from the beginning when he sees the welcome banner, and the uncontrollable twitching of the eye when he sees Lucifer hug Charlie. The funny thing is Alastor is the first one to react to Lucifer while Lucifer is completely focused on his daughter. Twice we saw this petty eye twitching - when he was annoyed with the Egg Bois and when Carmilla could care less about where he disappeared to. So we know Alastor is capable of it. He's not as high and above everyone as he thinks he is.
Lucifer's lame comeback was enough to get him to swear?? It was such a whiplash from what was established about Alastor so far. But for him to show his annoyance at Lucifer in such an obvious way, shows that there's something about Lucifer that just pisses him off, enough to slip his usual control.
Same with his final encounter with Mimzy. They're established as good friends, but the hotel is a red line. He's not all lofty like in the past episodes when Mimzy confronts him about whether or not he actually cares about the hotel. We as the audience are supposed to be sure that he doesn't, but I was expecting at least a smirk or his usual pleasantness and I-know-something-you-don't attitude. But he was as serious as he ever has been when he gives Mimzy an ultimatum. And the thing is, it's not a show he puts on to get on Charlie's good side or to piss Lucifer off since neither of them see it.
Again, I could easily interpret the entire sequence between Lucifer and Alastor as Alastor still being on top, and willfully manipulating and using Charlie just so he can have one over Lucifer if not for those two things. His uncontrolled reactions - swearing at Lucifer and the uncontrollable eye twitching when Lucifer and Charlie hug - because what benefit even does that get him??
So maybe he is taking this step-dad thing seriously because Lilith and him are involved somehow (which, yikes in so many ways), maybe he hates Lucifer for a separate reason unrelated to Charlie and/or Lilith or his hatred of Lucifer has everything to do with Charlie (even if it started with a deal with Lilith initially) and Charlie (as well as the hotel) are starting to have more of an influence on him than he expects.
Either way, it was awesome and this was exactly the found family chaos I was hoping for and I sure am glad to get it.
#hazbin hotel#alastor#charlie morningstar#lucifer morningstar#like ep 5 and 6 were both great for found family feels#the fact that Alastor near says it verbatim in the song and shows their f'd up li'l hotel family#(except Sir Pentious) no I correct myself Sir Pentious was in the kid-friendly drawing!#but no nifty so I guess height? or because she appeared in the song already. but the drawing itself is funny though it's so pg haha#ep 6 was so great#I am so so proud of Angel Dust#how he always gets the courage to fight against Val when he's fighting for his friends#first Charlie then Nifty#like he is probably the most selfless to endure everything#as long as none of his friends are hurt#and perhaps it's saying something that he's protective over the girls#because he remembers molly#it's even in the little things like watching out for nifty's drink#or wanting to actually commit on going on the straight and narrow#husk being proud of angle dust#the grayness of morality#I'm glad we got emily#and that charlie isn't just a naive optimist#it's what makes her so admirable#AND THE FORESHADOWING WITH VAGGIE#I am late to the party#I didn't realize about the pilot outfit#BUT AGAIN duh it would make sense even in the pilot people were wondering why vaggie would be in hell#but I mean even that throwawayline in ep 4 about vaggie learning to trust through military drills which didn't make sense#from her earth background but we know now is because she was an exorcist#and even the obvious and not obvious origin of her name

Presenting: The Great KinnPorsche Fashion Showdown (nobody asked for)
A few weeks ago, I made a poll about the best dressed KinnPorsche character. Tankhun won that one, followed by Vegas and Tay. Legitimate results - but the tags had some really interesting arguments for a bunch of different contenders. So why don't we take a closer look? Why don't we go through all the characters and their outfits one by one, choose the best one for each of them and repeat the initial poll at the end?
Sooo...that's exactly what we're doing right now.
*For the characters with more than 10 outfits - like Vegas here - I'm going to make multiple polls and put the best voted ones into a final one
** NO, the birthday suit doesn't count as an outfit, it's literally the opposite of an outfit, don't you dare complain in the tags.
You can find the links to all the polls (as I gradually post them) HERE (pinned on my profile).
LET'S GET VOTING! 🎉

OTTO Motives is one the funniest Ben 10 episodes I have ever seen. Kevin takes Rook, an officer of the space police, to a car show that is tiptoeing the lines of illegality and both him and Argit instantly try and jump their old boss who double-crossed them back in the Null Void. They didn't know he was there, they just saw him and started kicking his ass. Then this all turns out to be a part of said ex-boss's master plan (how did he know Kevin and Argit were going to be here? who fucking knows) to get near the expensive cars and sell them off. Rook and Kevin then have to call Ben, who is in the middle of dealing with a device that could EXPLODE THE UNIVERSE, to come in and stop this plot of a sci-fi comedy movie, while he has no idea what's going on or who the fuck he's even fighting. It's so funny for no reason.

a definitive ranking of every not me episodes
since I have done a full rewatch of not me, I decided to do what I’ve always wanted to do, rank every episode from best to “worst” (let’s be honest, there’s no bad episode lol.) this was incredibly hard to decide, but let’s go!
1. EPISODE 13
Tumblr media
it’s really hard to choose a number one bc as you will realize I literally ADORE every single not me episode & don’t consider any of them less than perfect, but... if I had to choose, ep 13 is my number one. this comes from many reasons: first of all if you ask me which not me episode I randomly remember during my day and die over, it’s definitely this one, simply bc it’s just TOO much and TOO iconic. secondly, it’s the climax the whole show has led to, so of course it’s an extra important episode. thirdly, the emotional impact of this episode is one for the history books. not only is this entire ep hella stressful as we watch the plan become more & more unpredictable, but dan’s betrayal of the gang, man. top 5 favorite scenes of ALL TIME. I cry like a little bitch every time, like... the acting is on point from everyone & I’ve never felt a betrayal more in my soul. it’s just executed perfectly, and ep 13 for me will forever be the not me episode in front of which I’ve felt the most emotions.
2. EPISODE 9
Tumblr media
this ep is kind of the last calm before the storm with seanwhite having the softest most soulmate-y moment ever recorded in existence & danyok finally getting together, but honestly it’s not that calm bc black comes back & we learn the truth about todd, which makes this ep one of the most important AND enjoyable of the show thanks to all the cuteness <3
3. EPISODE 8
Tumblr media
I mean... no one can watch this ep & tell me it’s not pure perfection. we get sean opening up to white before eventually confessing his feelings & them having their first kiss, we have dan being vulnerable with yok in one of the most moving scenes from the whole series, we have sean confronting tawi... an effortless slay across the board, this episode ENDED me when it aired & it ends me every time I rewatch it, 1000/10.
4. EPISODE 6
Tumblr media
I’ve loved this episode since it first aired, even prompting me to do a full blown essay about its significance for seanwhite’s relationship at the time. so I will try to not repeat what I already said there, but this episode is not only one of the most suspenseful like all mission episodes, but it’s executed so well and shows so much growth & change for sean & white. it functions as an arc within the whole story, of sean finally trusting white & white betraying that trust (for ultimately the greater good.) it also has some of the most impactful moments of the first half of the show imo, with the fight at the end which is conducted incredibly, and sean admitting he’s scared too during the mission. overall that episode is a masterpiece & I love it WAY too much!
5. EPISODE 14
Tumblr media
while this is definitely a kinda rushed ending, it’s still one hell of a good episode. the emotions are here, the good ending for everyone is here while still being open-ended so you can imagine perfectly how the characters’ lives are gonna be, and there’s some of the best cinematography of the whole show as well with the scene with the gang at the back of the van & tawi looking at the protesters from the top of his tower. really great ending!
6. EPISODE 2
Tumblr media
this episode is divided into 2 parts, the first one being the burning of tawi’s house which is not only visually stunning & incredibly impactful, but also very significant to the plot with the introduction of dan & also seeing sean be vulnerable for the first time. the second part, back to normal, is still great but less incredible than other episodes that are more well-rounded imo, which is why I’m only ranking it here.
7.  EPISODE 10
Tumblr media
 this ep has two of the most iconic scenes from the series (though there’s like 20 iconic scenes, let’s be honest), the black beating sean up scene & white coming to sean’s rescue as he’s given up on life scene. but the whole episode slays so hard, and shows us white’s relationship with his mother as well as namo being a great friend with sean. it’s just stressful enough before the real pressure starts & has incredible entertaining value. truly a great episode!
8. EPISODE 12
Tumblr media
on paper it’s a calmer, less crazy episode, but honestly so much shit happens; we have dan revealing the truth to sean, seanwhite officially coming together, white telling the truth to the gang, and some heart to heart between the twins. it’s such a good episode for that, and one of the chillest ones which is good bc the other ones are fucking tornados lol
9. EPISODE 7
Tumblr media
 this ep is just SO fucking great, not only with the flag scene which is definitely the best lgbtq+ scene ever imo, but also with the beginning of danyok being in love, like... ICONIC!!! but imo, if you exclude the flag scene, it doesn’t have that many super impactful scenes. like I still love that episode but compared to others, it is definitely less crazy good. the flag scene does raise the grade of that episode significantly though bc it’s just perfect <3
10. EPISODE 11
Tumblr media
such a great episode but compared to the others, not that much happens, which is why it’s ranked here. the toddblack & seanblack fight scenes are iconic though!!!
11. EPISODE 1
Tumblr media
for a first episode, it’s truly great, as it lays down just enough information to get you hooked but keeps most of the mystery this series thrives on intact. also white getting dropped in a mission he knows nothing about & the reveal that it’s against tawi is truly incredible! but the reason I’m ranking it low is that it does have some slow moments, notably in the classroom scene, but also bc it’s confined by its role as a first episode: nothing much can happen compared to the later episodes no matter what.
12. EPISODE 5
Tumblr media
sort of a filler episode but it kickstarts so much shit, including ep 6 which is a fucking masterpiece. the only annoying thing in it is all the gramblack bait that will lead to nothing, but otherwise the scenes are all super enjoyable & the real start of seanwhite & danyok’s relationships.
13. EPISODE 4
Tumblr media
also kind of a filler episode, but a bunch of super interesting things still happen so it’s still hella enjoyable. I would say I wish the classroom scene was a bit shorter, but apart from that this episode lays the ground well for ep 5 & 6.
14. EPISODE 3
Tumblr media
this one is also more of a filler episode, even though every scene is still super captivating. it’s the beginning of white slowky changing the way he thinks about politics, and him cutting contact with his dad & moving to the garage. the reason it’s ranked last is bc, compared to other eps, it doesn’t have the most important scenes.

fascinated that ForceBook had pretty nice chemistry in episode 1 but by now I really don't feel TopMew - not only because they are the two characters I understand the least - but ForceBook actively try not to have chemistry
very solid acting in my opinion but leaves me watching the trainwreck of SandRay through my fingers as my heart hurts, giddy about BostonNick as the heat starts to burn them, while feeling like I am poking some curious looking sludge with a stick to see if something happens when TopMew are on the screen

I'll give buddy daddies the biggest kudos for the one thing that no media has done to me before in such a long time.
it made me cry, as someone who holds in their emotion's alot in a very un-healthy way even with cartoon's i love, it gets big kudos for that.
very much shows how good this show is, watch it.

There's a lot to say about this week's RnM ep (such as that apparently I get to see this shit 2 days after half of my favorite rnm blogs, so I'm stuck skipping far too many spoilers) but putting aside my actual thoughts on the new shift of toxic dynamics in the family and the way that improved relationships in the Sanchez-Smith clan appears to constantly depend on having someone to blame for anything going wrong:
I am so glad they gave us shirtless no abs rick and all of his weird funky robot limb gadgets
