Long post with Hazbin Hotel S1 spoilers!

While I don’t think it’ll happen, what I’d love to see from season 2 of Hazbin Hotel is an episode set in Heaven, directly after the events of S1E6 “Welcome to Heaven.” Preferably, this episode will be either the first or second episode of the season, with Adam still alive and kicking as Heaven prepares for the next Extermination Day.

Why do I want an episode like this? Simple. Because after what happened in S1E6, Heaven has to be in a lot of turmoil. I’m talking total chaos, protests in the streets kind of stuff. Think about it from the perspective of one of the winners. Hell, think of it from the perspective of Angel Dust’s sister in Heaven, Molly.

You’re Molly, and you’re dead, and end up in Heaven. Score! So you go searching for your twin brother, who died before you(probably, canon is unclear right now). You two were close, and you had the best relationship with Anthony out of anyone in your family.

You search for a while. A very long while. Heaven is a big place, after all. You don’t find Anthony anywhere. You ask around, and no one has seen or heard of him. Doubt builds up, as this can only mean one thing and you dread getting that answer. Finally, you go to the big name taker himself, St. Peter, and ask politely if your brother has been through the pearly gates, and you hear the worst news since you got to Heaven, he didn’t make the cut and is in Hell.

So now you’re asking around to find out if anyone has ever made it up from Hell and into Heaven. Surely someone has, right? But as you ask the angels and other winners around Heaven, you get a variety of replies, ranging from pity to some straight up laughing in your your face over the very idea that a sinner can be redeemed. The answer, no matter who you ask, is the same. A resounding “No.”

So, Hell is forever(whether you like it or not), and you’ll never see Anthony again. There doesn’t even seem to be a way to message sinners, or visit them. You don’t think he deserved his fate, but you can only hope that Hell isn’t as bad as everyone says it is, and that he’s doing well down there.

Then one day, someone from Hell is visiting Heaven, which is unheard of and is causing a ruckus. The Princess of Hell herself is here! After a song and dance number, you discover she’s here for a trial hearing about if a sinner can be redeemed or not. This is the best news you’ve heard in decades! You might have a chance to reunite with Anthony! You go to the trial, take a seat in the gallery of the courtroom, and what you find out is horrific.

Hell is worse than you thought. Your brother, Anthony, of all people, is the example the princess of Hell is using to make her case, and now he goes by Angel Dust, and is forced to be a porn star. Despite unknowingly passing every test that Adam and the Seraphim place on him, they still deem Anthony unfit for heaven, even as Emily argues against this, siding with Hell’s Princess. Why is the princess of Hell more concerned with your brother’s fate than Heaven, who are supposed to be the good guys?

And even worse, you find out that every year, Adam and a bunch of angels under his command go down and kill sinners, just like your brother. Adam slaughters them, and doesn’t hide his enjoyment of his actions, even proclaiming his intentions of attacking the very hotel that is trying to rehabilitate sinners as his first target for the next extermination. And the head Seraphim, Sera, says and does nothing to stop him. She absolutely condones his monstrous actions.

Heaven has been killing people, committing genocide, for who knows how long? Denying your family, friends, and loved ones who didn’t make the cut a chance to change, and then murdering them? Anthony has only managed to survive by luck or skill, and now his head is directly placed on the chopping block after he’s gone through all this effort to get into heaven in the first place?

And now the courtroom is in shambles, angels arguing over this earthshattering news that Adam and Sera have been hiding from them. Even some of your fellow mortal souls are torn into two camps, one who thinks the sinners deserve whatever is coming to them, and the other like yourself who don’t want their friends and family in hell to suffer even more.

You decide to Hell with Heaven. Torches and pitchforks all around as over the course of a month you do everything you can along with your fellow likeminded angels and Winners to get the extermination canceled. Protests, threats, petitions, you try everything, but it’s all in vain as Adam gathers his troops and goes down.

Thats what I wanna see in the start of season 2, with the Heaven focused episode ending with Sir Pentious arriving in Heaven, proving a sinner can redeem themselves, and putting an end to the conflict. But just because Heaven decides to end the exterminations and work to redeem sinners now that there is undeniable proof walking/slithering among them, doesn’t mean it washes away their own sins. Sera can’t bring back the millions who were killed by Adam and his legions, who now will never have a chance to be redeemed and reunite with their loved ones in Heaven. Molly wouldn’t even know if Anthony survived the last extermination.

Let there be a shake up in heaven, let there be lingering resentment towards the angels for what they’ve done, let there be some kind of conflict or consequences for the actions Heaven took. I always hate when a show glosses over stuff like this. I want the final shot of this hypothetical episode to be Sera and Em sitting in that room, with protests right outside their door, discussing what needs to be done. Sera wanting to continue the exterminations, even if if it angers the winners because she believes its in their best interests, and Em trying to get Sera to change her mind, and call off the attack, only for Sir Pentious to pop in like he did at the end of season one, ending their discussion because now Sera doesn’t have a leg to stand on anymore.

You can even keep a comedic angle by having the Winners be terrible at civil protests because they’re all so goodie two shoes. They don’t want to throw a brick through a window, that would be rude and mean!

If you love video games and care at all about their preservation, watch and share the video, and make sure to visit Stopkillinggames.com to do something about it.

To try and sum up the video for those who don’t have the time: Ubisoft is a French company killing their video game “The Crew,” a game that needs online access to play, despite having plenty of single player content.

There will be no patch to make it playable offline. This is not a subscription based game. Ubisoft is breaking something you may have legally purchased.

France has some of the best consumer protection laws available. This is a chance to establish legal protections of games you own so that no company in France will be able to kill/destroy a game you legally own.

If this passes in France, gaming companies will basically be forced to not do this anymore worldwide. You have the chance to help get this taken to court, even if you are not French. There are even options if you never even owned the game. Do your part, please.

If there is no options for you to take, share the video, reblog the post, just getting the word out helps.

I know that by this point, I’m super late to the party when it comes to opinions on the Live Action Cowboy Bebop, but I was thinking about it recently, so I figured I’d shout into the void while it was on my mind.

I liked it.

Was it a good adaption? Nah, not really. I’ve seen worse, but this wasn’t a very good retelling of the story or the characters. They changed a lot that didn’t need to be changed, and it pissed a lot of people off. But I frequently hear it touted as one of the worst of the worst when it comes to LA adaptions, some even saying it’s just as bad as Dragon Ball: Evolution and the Last Airbender movie. And that just isn’t true.

DB:E and TLA weren’t just a terrible adaptions. If you removed Dragon Ball and Avatar from them, stripped that from their identities, they would still be terrible movies. Where LA Cowboy Bebop would be good, dare I say better, if you stripped away the Coybow Bebop from it.

If it had been set in the world of Bebop with a different cast of characters, or “inspired by Cowboy Bebop,” or didn’t have anything to do with Bebop, it would likely have been regarded as a fairly good, 7-8/10 show. But it also likely wouldn’t have been greenlit if that were the case since it seems everything needs to be a remake, adaption, or reimagining these days.

TLDR: Live Action Cowboy Bebop is not a great adaption, but is a decent enough scifi series in a void.

Case in point, while I went in knowing about Cowboy Bebop, and loved the anime, my Dad, an old school scifi nerd who doesn’t watch anime(outside of whatever I watched on Saturday mornings as a kid, so mostly Yu-Gi-Oh) and had never even heard of Cowboy Bebop before, really enjoyed the show for what was there when we watched it together, and was really disappointed it got canceled.

So, I’m glad it got made, because even if it was a terrible adaption, I still had a good time, and anyone who hadn’t seen the anime already probably would as well.

The anime is still better, though. Do not get me wrong. But I can like both, for different reasons. Should I have started with that? I feel I should have started with that…

As someone who always plays as Luigi when I have the option, this is honestly what it feels like.

I watch a lot of anime with my sister, and this was something we had a revelation about the shows we had gone through that week.

I don’t remember which one of us yelled out “girl!” Just as the other said “overactive imaginations” for Bocchi and Anya, but I couldn’t not add it.

Paper Mario? More like Clay-per Mario, am I right?

With the remake of The Thousand Year Door on the horizon, I really wanted to make something to commemorate it, and after playing through my copy on GameCube again to get in a good Papery, Marioy mood, this came to me.

I’ve been experimenting with clay as a medium lately after wanting to for years, and the first thing I decided to make was figures of my latest obsession: Bocchi the Rock!

I learned a lot about shaping clay during this project, and it’s become a medium I hope to experiment more with in the future! I might redo the clear coat on them in the future, I wanted a semi-gloss, but it came out super glossy instead.

Oh, and a bonus:

Bocchi sobbing as she’s tormented by the faceless effigies of her friends.

Careful, Carlos! You spilled your ubon! Nobody likes wasted food, not even Outer Gods.

Remember, kids: don't read by moonlight. It'll strain your eyes and lead to vision problems. The last thing a cycloptic outer god needs.

I wanted to post more pictures of my model of Link’s totk house. You can check out my previous posts on it here.

Once more, the full model.

Here it is opened up, so you can see all the rooms. Each room is removable, and can be switched around with any of the other rooms. I made it as full customizable as I could.

What do you mean I can’t put my stalhorse in the paddock? I don’t know who’s fault this is, but I blame Grantèson!

This is about the configuration my in game house has, with the 15 part limit. You can see a tour of that house in the next link.

Basically any configuration works. Look, this one even uses the study! One of the most worthless, and hardest to place pieces available!

And that’s it. Just another post to gush about something I’m really proud of, and happy to have made.
