The silly!!!!!!11!!!

[gingebreadbeetle]

Dont interact with me if you support/are friends with chai

i dont care how "nice" the fuck is.

Dude editted a survivors comic about grooming within the pr-ship community to be positive about pr-shipping and hes completely fine with simulated child exploitation material along with bestiality (he himself labels his interests as bestiality, fictional or not its wrong)

Interacting with such paraphilias makes everything worse for everyone and is literally discouraged by psychologists.

pr-shipping isnt a good coping mechanism, sure its a coping mechanism, but its also a form of self harm that leads to reckless behaviors, poorer mental health and rumination on trauma.

Oh my god that kid is literally a baby what the fuck.

Viv: "My shows aren't aimed at children, they're only intended to be seen by adults and adults only!"

Also Viv: *literally interacts with a child fan in a supposedly adult only space for an "adult" show*

Wow, such a role model and completely not a hypocrite, am I right?

[gingebreadbeetle]

Wanna know why this is so fucking bad?

These demons started out as so insufferable, terrible, sinful, when Stolas actually acted like an actual Demon Prince and now they act way too much like Humans and honestly this is like a mess of dark mature themes, y'know stories that put in dark mature themes just to seem cool about it, I don't think they have actually solved anything

Blitzo shouldn't have even QUESTIONED anything at all about his kill mission, apparently Vivzie thought he should cuz if he didn't, it would make him a hypocrite cuz he was in a similar circumstance, even though Demons would not even care what hypocrisy is cuz they ARE hypocrisy

I mean sure I had good faith in this show, Helluvaverse of Vivzie did have a great start, but now it's just so boring and I wanted a show of demons, not humans acting like they're Demons

Man I was so obsessed with Hazbin Hotel when its trailer first came out, now it's just sad

I’m in the same boat man.

Hazbin and Helluva came out, ( pilot hazbin, I should clarify) and I was a big fan.

I was excited that there was a show that tackled demonology and hell because! That’s my jam! And the shows seemed very interesting!!!

But it’s clear that Viv doesn’t care for interesting. Hell is a backdrop, her characters are puppets to further a hollow and inconsistent story which is animated by either underpayed workers or artists that Viv favors that are total creeps.

[gingebreadbeetle]

Blud doesn't know what a joke is.

Hold up guys go easy on me I just came back for the Christmas special what joke are we talking about because I thought jokes were supposed to be funny

[gingebreadbeetle]

Chat it’s so fucking over that’s insane

WAIT A FUCKING MINUTE

WAIT ONE FUCKING MINUTE

VIVIENNE ARE YOU TRYING TO SAY ITS OKAY FOR A MAN TO CHEAT ON HIS SPOUSE IF ITS WITH ANOTHER MAN BUT IF A WOMAN CHEATS WITH A MAN SHE DESERVES NO MERCY?

I need help paying for a tooth extraction 🦷

$0/200

paypal.me/AsterSpiral30

The back molar in the bottom left side of my mouth needs to be extracted.

My dentist had put on a cap to cover the tooth— and I mistakenly thought that it wasn’t as serious as time went on (from my last examination this spring).

I brushed regularly as usual, and the cap did help me.

However, the tooth started bothering me over the past four days when I eat and drink (particularly cold things like chilled water). I haven’t eaten anything sweet this week (The sugar makes me nervous).

I hope that I can get this tooth removed ASAP before it becomes far more painful.

Every little bit helps.

Please reblog.

[gingebreadbeetle]

Yeah guys we can critique Viv for a lot of actions but it’s never okay to say someone needs to or should die js because they’re a shitty person. Should Viv be held accountable? Absolutely. Is death a form of accountability? No.

Can we not say that Viv needs to ‘fucking d!e’ over a vinyl figure that has unfortunate implications? I hope we all can agree on how that is not an okay thing to say right?

[gingebreadbeetle]

I can’t believe this is a fun fact. More like a ‘Facts that are commonly known from the poor writing but for the dense gatekeepers in the back it’s new information.’

Someone more clever than me will make this funny

(derogatory) We could tell

[gingebreadbeetle]

Hazbin hotel critics that rewrite or redesign the show have my heart. This is an appreciation post. I love you all. Any time someone redo’s sir Pentious? You BET I’m eating that up. FEM SIR PENTIOUS?? WAITER, MORE PLEASE!!!!

Seriously the creative ideas artists and writers use from the base of the show — idk how to explain it I wish that those rewrites WERE the real show because i LOVE them.

Also, if you’re someone who is a fan of Hazbin hotel and you find a blog that is rewriting or redesigning the show and go out of your way to attack them, you suck lmfao. ( I’ve seen this happen before, like, girl?)

Conclusion is support artists and writers even if they don’t like your show because they’re great and so creative and they carry so hard.

Yhhhh goodnight tristate area because im barely hanging

[gingebreadbeetle]

[gingebreadbeetle]

Because they themselves are misogynists, who have been convinced this show is feminist when it is not. All they have politically consumed is what their liberal twitter feed has fed them. They are the mass to mass cancel for racism or homophobia, while being those things themselves. They are leftists, but only advocate for their own ‘communities needs’.

But here’s the truth, these stans have no community. They don’t even have community with each other over their favorite character. They are just what Viv is, self serving and selfish.

Or maybe just teenagers in their fandom phase enjoying objectively garbage media

Either or tbh

How can these stans love Charlie Morningstar and not loathe her?! How can they approve of her overly positive attitude and spinelessness?! She is literally the embodiment of a stereotypical woman who is passive, spineless, unintelligent, and emotionally irrational because Vivienne Medrano herself is a massive misogynist!

I choose this image of Rena from Higurashi because that's how I'm feeling right now.

Yesterday, I watched the Spiderverse (2023) for the third time just for Hobie Brown. And I noticed something.

Nearly all of the Spider people has red in their design, (Gwen being an exception) but since they never exist in a fully red enviroment and the way other colors are used in their design, it never looks "way too red". But hey, guess which show has characters with dominant red colors? Hazbin Hotel. So I decided to compare the way colors are used in them.

See where Im getting? In these shots, the characters always pop out from the background because of the way lighting and backgrounds are used. Yet it never looks eye straining despite the colors are very vibrant.

And another problem I wanted to talk about, in Spiderverse, the colors are used to represent emotions and they do this pretty well. The first scene where Gwen hugs her dad has a really soothing and nice vibe, which its probably how Gwen feels too at the very moment. The second scene, well I actually didnt get to watch that scene so I dont remember the context crystal clear but its when Miles gets sent to the other universe, where he gets tied to the punching bag by the other Miles. The scene is primarily red to show the danger and threat. This is how well the color red is used in Spiderverse. Its special and they saved it for these kind of scenes.

Now, for Hazbin Hotel.. Hmm, I guess the color red is special in this show too. The characters all have red, white and black in their designs with some of them having a little bit of yellow. Maybe use some cool colors to balance that like they did in Spiderverse? Or dont put your characters in red enviroments unless its necessary to show a certain emotion or mood? Its always the same tone of red used in every scene and every character, its looking bad and unorganized.

You dont need to make the Hell all red to show its Hell? If you wanna keep that, then design your characters with different colors so they can stand out from the background. Otherwise, youre gonna end up having these clustred images.

And another thing Hazbin Hotel needs to learn from Spiderverse is designing POC. Spiderverse has a really diverse cast of characters with all kinds of different personalities. It doesnt have any stereotypes unlike Hazbin and has great written poc characters like Miles, Hobie, Miguel, Jessica and so much more. ALSO surprisingly, despite Spiderverse not having any canonic queer character, with the "Protect trans kids" poster in Gwen's house, I think it also has better queer represantation than Hazbin too lol. It was pretty casual, not forced or anything stereotypical, it was just there. I just love the theory that the Peter Parker in Gwen's universe may be trans, which it makes sense for me.

So yeah folks, thats pretty much it. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

XOXO 💋💋 HUGS!! ^_^ :3

OP I adore you you broke this down so well and concisely.

I think Viv doesn’t know how to make characters likable and evil. She almost had it with striker … then season two happened.

So to make them likable she gifts them good morals or silly character traits that … doesn’t really apply to their sin? And don’t get me wrong, you can totally make a goofy character and be someone powerful and the embodiment of lust/pride/sloth ect ect, but at their CORE the thing they represent is not who they are. Which is the biggest mistake a writer can commit, loosing a grasp on the concept of their characters.

When you forget there’s sin in Seven Deadly Sins

[I guess this could be treated as part two of my rant about Hell’s ruling class.]

The Seven Sins are the embodiment of their vice, in a modern setting, they will probably be seeking to indulge in harmful activities themselves since they are immortal and can’t face consequences and influence others into falling into dangerous lifestyles. I can even see a scenario when each of them tries to make propaganda through the internet with platforms like Instagram or TikTok, like Beelzebub promoting Bezzle Juice except that it’s purposely made to be extremely addictive and one shot of it gets you hooked forever.

We’re gonna start with Lucifer, the only angel of the Seven. He’s a dreamer quirky cutie patootie with dePwezIOn that just wanted to give humanity Fwee Wil🥺.

What were Lucifer’s plans/dreams for humankind in the first place? He was dismissed as a troublemaker, okay…? What portrayed him as such? He’s a socially awkward silly guy but honestly, that’s all there is to his character. But I won’t get too deep with these questions maybe we’ll get more answers in Hazbin. However, what I can ask is…

How did Lucifer manage to find himself so close to The Garden of Eden? If I’m making something important I ain’t letting the petulant kid get close to it because… you know he might ruin it.

Elder or not Lucifer is still a Seraphim, did he not know that giving Free Will to humans would mess up everything? Even if HE didn't know what about the others? Were the angels even aware of Evil as a whole? If yes, why didn't they warn Lucifer before giving him access to Eden? Like “Hey dude the glowing red Tree in the middle of the Garden is bad news don’t let the mortals near it.” was it that hard?

Can someone explain to me how is this the embodiment of Pride? I personally don't see anything prideful in his attitude at all. Pride is the belief that you don’t need God in your spiritual journey, in a worst-case scenario, you think yourself above him. In the Bible, Lucifer was too Proud to bow before mankind and tried to overthrow God which led to his banishment. But since Viv totally changed the story and forgot to add the Pride elements, there’s nothing justifying Lucifer’s title as Pride incarnate.

TW: Mention of sexual assault/rape and a brief mention of other sexual practices.

Following with Asmodeus, why is he like this? Don't get me wrong, I can understand why he isn't a fan of rape as a whole, rape is rarely, dare I say never, about sexual craving, it’s about control. Val doesn't rape Angel Dust, and his employees because he feels needy, he assaults them because he knows that’ll break them psychologically and physically which makes them vulnerable to manipulation. Sexual assault as a whole is never about lust.

It makes sense if we drop out of the fact that Lust isn’t just physical but religiously speaking just an intense craving for something, like power or control. Viv took the easy way and reduced it to a physical craving so Asmodeus could be anti-rape I can’t blame her for that, it’s her ✨interpretation.✨

So Asmodeus is Pro Concent and it kinda makes sense. Since he’s the Prince of Lust, he technically should have influence over the culture in the Lust Ring and other species like Succubus should at least be weirded out by innuendo of non-consensual sex.

Well, shit.

“OooOoooOOH But Tiz is Not Rape!”

Compare the succubus’ abilities to aphrodisiacs and it all makes sense. Increasing someone’s libido without their consent alone is sexual misconduct proceeding to have sex with them later is rape. And it’s not the only instance of succubus assaulting people.

[Context: Ep3 S1, Verosika’s crew basically made condescending comments on how Moxie was cute and how they wanted to kiss him despite his discomfort and the fact that he mentioned being married. They still eventually kissed him by force and it was treated as a joke. “I care about male victims.” Sure we believe you.]

So Asmodeus is a hypocrite for giving succubus and incubus a way to get to Earth while knowing they are raping as many humans as possible.

“D3mOn @re BAAAAAAD Pweple So |t makse sense.☝️🤓”

I know, I wouldn’t complain that much if Asmodeus wasn’t painted as this cutie patootie lovely doe who is so in love with his lovely cute good boy partner.

Talking about partners, why does the Prince, no… why does LUST INCARNATE have ONE partner? The dude’s sex drive should be higher than the Olympus Mons and you’re telling me he doesn’t have a harem at disposition and he’s FAITHFUL?!! No free relationship, no hookups, no polyamorous relationship, and no mention of orgies he organizes to test the efficiency of his toys! Hell, we’re talking about Lust shouldn’t he be more inclined to have exhibitionist behavior (In recent episodes Lust’s citizens were desensitized about voyeurism so showing a bit of skin shouldn't be a problem)? Or, I don’t know, the ability to change his appearance and sex to appeal to a larger audience. Maybe the smoke secreted by his fire can serve as an aphrodisiac he only uses to put his partners in the mood (With their consent if she’s so attached to that idea.)

Viv, with two shows whose humor is mostly based on sex you certainly lack representations in terms of positive sexual activities, every time sex is mentioned in both of her projects it’s either a joke or diabolized. I’ve seen teens on Wattpad and AO3 writing foul smut with sexual practice so taboo it’ll make you gasp out loud! Take an example! (This was obliviously a joke but seriously, smut’s writers scare me with their tags.)

This leads us to Beelzebub, she’s supposed to be…. an animal tamer? She did not give off this vibe at all, she’s a party girl at best, stop saying things on Twitter Viv, and show it in your shows!

Is there a reason for her to be so nice? What do you mean you don’t want Bliztø to lose himself in alcohol and sex, you’re all about overindulgence. If anything she should actively invite people who are mentally distressed as they’ll be more willing to drink excessively in a “forget my life’s issues” type of way. This could also explain why so many people in her parties are minorities, Hellhounds and Imps are treated like shit by Hell’s society so being invited to one of Queen Bee’s parties will be a great honor and a way for them to forget how difficult their life is.

“E3RmS Actoualli, Bee ite the Viiiibe! S0 ze kant let Peple b3 s@d or ze will be sad too. ☝️🤓”

Ah… okay, still don't explain why she can’t be a bitch about it. Since she “eats the vibe” and feels for her people she could be affected by Blizt's destructive behavior and be absolutely furious someone is ruining her parties for her! Then she could have gotten to Loona and been like “Look your dad doesn't have the vibe I’m looking for so get him out unless you wanna learn what happen to party pooper.” implying that she will most likely kill him (or eat him) and that this isn't the first time she offed someone for that. But I guess we can make another EMBODIMENT OF SINS a decent girl, it’s Viv ✨interpretation.✨

Going forward with Mammon, Viv humanized the Sins mentioned up there, so you would think Mammon would also get the humanization treatment?

“T3re Is NOO g0od s|de to GrEed!!!!! 😡”

Okay.

What’s Greed, it’s a selfish desire for more than what you already have (money, fame, etc...) The mention of selfishness doesn’t give Greed a positive connotation but you forgot…. This is Viv ✨interpretation✨ she reduced Lust to craving sexual intimacy just so she could make Asmodeus Pro Concent. Beelzebub doesn't need food she eats the Viiiiibe so she can’t let people self-destruct! Here she’ll politely ask you to go away because she caaaaaares. And Lucifer isn’t Prideful at all.

She removed part of the definition of each Sins so she could make them good people and you’re telling me that she couldn't do the same for Mammon?!

“But H0w can ze posibli m@ke Greed Pozitif?”

If you remove the selfish aspect, Greed is wanting something more. There’s nothing wrong with that, like wanting more recognition, and more money when you’re poor. Mammon could have been this guy who worked himself at the top and his money could have been the fruit of his hard work.

So why, of all the Sins that got turned down was Greed the only one who got the “I’m pure Evil” treatment?

The Seven Deadly Sins aren't supposed to be decent beings. They represent the worst of what humanity can do and they are embodied by equally bad entities. With a setup as shitty as the Hellaverse, where there are little to no rules, slavery, classism, and drugs available everywhere I was expecting them to be a tad bit vicious, purposely making the life of everyone worse for their benefit. Mammon could have been the reason for this capitalist society as it’s the perfect environment to develop other sins and his. Yet, Beelzebub is friendly to the Hellhounds while letting them be treated like lesser than how we treat dogs. There’s even rehabs in Hell, Verosika and Barbie were in the same one.

Asmodeus will sue you if you rape someone unless you’re a succubus. Ironically he said that he’s against love potions when that’s literally what the succubus do with their abilities, get you in the mood without you knowing.

Lucifer is the number one silly guy and he even has an attraction parc for others to have fun.

I know it’s Viv ✨ interpretation✨ but you have to make it make sense. You can’t have demons this high-ranked being nice portray them as good people in the narrative when they are responsible for Hell being so unfair to the lower class.

As for the other sins…

Traditionally speaking Wrath isn't just unjustified violence but hatred and a desire for revenge. I think that’s one of the main reasons Satan and Lucifer are treated as the same person as Lucifer is both prideful, hates God, and seeks revenge. I don't see how Viv’s Satan could be vengeful as they were no war with Heaven to begin with.

Envy isn’t wanting something that someone else has (it’s jealousy), it’s hating someone because they have something that you don’t. Which often results in trying to make the life of this person worse but that’s another thing. I didn't see anything about Sloth and judging by the Sloth Ring, Beelphagor is going to be medical-themed, we know he makes drugs and has a brand of anti-depressant named “Happy Pills.” (Nothing to do with the circus aesthetic she was going for.)

I don’t know if Viv really has a good grasp of what these Sin are traditionally as she claims but we have to see in future episodes. My guess is no.

[gingebreadbeetle]

I think Mammon and Queen Bee should swap like he has the lamp tummy that never allows him to be full, and Queen gets the chubbness

Real tbh.

Though, I do have to concede I do think Viv would be given backlash for making Beelzebub ‘chubby’ because I think many would argue she would be simplifying gluttony to ‘haha fat people’

But seeing how she treated mammon … she did it anyway so like that defense burned and died quickly LMFAO.

Treat your characters with respect Viv, part of design isn’t just how cool they are, it’s subtle storytelling too.

[gingebreadbeetle]

It isn’t even representation, it’s poorly tacked on ‘quirks’ for Viv to use to make her characters more interesting and appealing and give them some sort of conflict. ( Spoiler alert, doesn’t work. )

The queer representation in Vivzepop shows are the most funniest and saddest things I ever seen in media because why most of it is literally just bad😭

all the gay men are twinks basically sexual harass their love interest (cough angel cough stolas) or need some strong man to save them *side eyes frizz*

the lesbian characters is a angry Latina stereotype who hates men and needs to always protect her white girlfriend and the other character is not even part of the main cast and only had two animated appearance

The bisexual character doesn’t even show interest in the opposite gender hell you can’t even tell their bi because they either act straight or pan

SPEAKING PANSEXUAL I hate how all of them are stereotypes like wow they will fuck anything that moves great we still haven’t let go of that shitty joke in 2024

the acesexual characters are a 17 year old girl who gets called a cock blocking slut by a grown ass man a supposedly “black men” is a serial killer who only cares about himself and the fat villain… that’s it

and oh yeah the trans character who is also the lesbian character which again only has two animated appearance and not even in the main cast

Good queer representation my ass

[gingebreadbeetle]

You’re all so very nice I am so very glad

Ugly, over designed and unimaginative. Probably a scrapped design for the joker at some point during Batman’s long comic career. Once again Viv fails to tie in her themes of religion and ‘ the circus act’ of the sins. He looks like a Christmas tree, he doesn’t look threatening and the overuse of green is uninspired.

Overdesigned, colors are too bright and the concept at its core is flawed. Idk what this girl is supposed to be but it is NOT Beelzebub. Please normalize making Beelzebub ugly. Guys they are Lucifer’s right hand man idk why she was turned into a frat girl. Viv give women in your stories use and purpose challenge instead of stripping their identity down to white women. … again no idea for the circus theme.

Not sexy, deserves the bad quality image above. The outfit is confusing, the visual direction is everywhere and the boots are ugly. His face is too similar to Mammons and he doesn’t really stand out. The shape langauge is all over the place. ZERO cunt was served. If you asked me what his role at the circus motif was I’d say freak show.

More bad images. How do you over twink the first biblical twink? Dunno, ask viv. Milton and Dante cry over this design. Poets pour their hearts into the mourning of the Morningstar and Vivziepop returns this empathy by giving another generic thin white guy who she gives 19272829 billion excuses to baby. The apple and snake connection are bare bones. The theme of circus is barely noticeable.

Guys is this a safe space to complain about how Vivziepop portrays the physical form of the 7 deadly sins because I have so many thoughts and none of them are positive
