Helluva Boss: The Grimoire. Useless, Pointless, Wasted.
Alright so this is probably gonna be my last post on this show, or unless something else happens that REALLY gets under my skin.
Now the Grimoire? This....THIS thing has got to be one of the most wasted, pointless and useless plot devices I’ve ever seen. But let’s go over what it’s supposed to be as per Season 1 hm?
What it’s suppose to be
The Grimoire as per Season 1 of HB, is suppose to be the key in how and why Blitz is able to run I.M.P., he explicitly states in the commercial from the Pilot that this is the reason why the Company is the way it is. That this Company is all about going to the Living World and killing people up top for money and that the only way they can do this, is because they have ‘special access’ to it.
Now in order to do this, Blitz had to go through this monthly deal in exchange for the book. All of this is perfectly fine, it’s set up as something very important and what Blitz needs in order to get a lifestyle that he wants.
What it became
Almost immediately the Grimoire is reduced to nothing more than...a paperweight. Because right at the start of Season 2, were introduced to something called Asmodean Crystals, which enable travel to the Living World and these Crystals can be in the form of various jewelry or whatever that can be worn.
Oh but then it gets even worse as right in EP 3 of Season 2, Blitz states to Crim at least twice that I.M.P. doesn’t do killings in Hell anymore, they used to...but now they don’t anymore. He also says this to Stolas in EP 1 of Season 2 BEFORE he gets the Grimoire that he’s killing people.
These 2 things bring into question the WHOLE point of Blitz’ deal and the entire show. The WHOLE SHOW falls apart because of this.
A show functions by having a coherent plot/story. Season 1 gave a reason as to why Blitz needed the Grimoire and why he had to be around Stolas.
Season 2 meanwhile just threw all that out the window, Blitz doesn’t need the Grimoire anymore, he has no reason to be around or even talk to Stolas....so why?
Here’s a thought, remove Stolas and the Grimoire entirely from HB. Aside from no gay stuff involving Blitz and Stolas, what changes overall with regards to I.M.P.?
I’ll tell you...NOTHING.
The characters are still the same, hell you can still basically have all the episodes with perhaps a couple of adjustments, but you could still have them.
In fact you could make far more interesting episodes, because as I said in a prior post, you could easily make both character building and world building with just revolving around the Asmodean Crystals.
Or I.M.P in Hell? Maybe they take out contracts from Hellborn, maybe lower Nobility, hunting targets throughout the Rings. Because I’ll tell you what, those Earth centric episodes haven’t really been that great to start with. If I.M.P was taking out contracts BEFORE Sinners with Hellborn clients, then nothing changes other than location. Oh and look at this, you expand upon your world building in Hell this way too.
You could even still have male/male stuff too, if you really wanted as well. This isn’t rocket science, if you can remove the Gromire and Stolas completely and nothing really changes because there’s other alternatives that can basically make the story go the same way or in another interesting direction? Then there’s an issue.
The Grimoire in of itself has also not been used to its full potential I feel as well. Here you have this fantastical book that clearly has some powerful magic, yet the only thing it’s used for is....portal opening. There’s so many different ways that the Grimoire can be used for various episode shenangeins and yet on its own, is just wasted.
Despite my last couple of posts, I do like this show. ....For what little I like, I like this show. It’s just stuff like this bothers me and I don’t wanna have to just “deal with it or go with it” because it’s a show made by a small studio and on Youtube. Audiences shouldn’t have to be like that, the studio sets the deadline, the studio does the writing, they have all the time in the world. I mean just look how long we had to wait for episodes folks, stuff like this shouldn’t be happening, at least not something so huge.
Anyway now that I got that out of my system, I can relax and enjoy the show...well as much as I can.

Something that confuses me in helluva boss is the white marks on imps, are they scars or birth marks?
Blitzø didn't have them as a kid
But now he has loads.
Moxie only has white freckles, and that's it,
But millie has some on her body and a white spot in her hair, which I don't think would be a scar .
Or do they appear over time like vitiligo 😭🖐

Loona, about the Cherubs: We need a plan to beat them.
Blitz: Okay, listen up. First, we fill their shoes with wet cat food.
Loona, Millie and Moxxie:
Blitz: Judge me all you want, I get results.

I've had an idea for a Helluva boss/little shop of horrors au for a while now so here's who I think would be who and why bc Im bored asf
Cast:
Moxxie is Seymour
Millie is Audrey
Blitzø is Mr mushnik
Striker is orin
Asmodeus is Audrey ii
And Keenie,Cletus,and Colin are the street urchins (Chiffon,Crystal,and Ronnette)
Reasons:
Moxxie - moxxie is HEAVILY nerd coded in my opinion along the fact that he's just a dork in general
Millie - she's moxxie's wife so it makes sense (also she's hot asf)
Blitzø - 1, he's M&Ms boss and 2, he has greedy traits from his dad (at least I think)
Striker - 1, he's KNOWN to be very aggressive. 2, moxxie was OBVIOUSLY jealous of striker in s1 ep5. And 3, he acted SO much like orin scrivello in s2 ep6
Asmodeus - 1, he has a very soulful voice which is PERFECT for the role of Audrey ii. 2, he's sassy asf. and 3,he LITERALLY ATE CRIM'S LAWYER IN S2 EP6
Keenie, Cletus, and Colin - I honestly couldn't think of anyone else
Extra:
Another reason for Moxxie AND Millie as Seymour and Audrey is that they have basically the same ship dynamic
