#theeispode was called oops

My friends thought I should see the new Helluva Boss, and I did, so here's what I thought:

-I don't really follow the series so I don't know most of what was going on, but it was surprisingly intuitive

-There's a clown! A robot clown! A gay robot clown! They sound like Beetlejuice

-They ARE beetlejuice.

-The robot clown has this really tall boyfriend with a really nice voice but they're secretly dating. They have to pretend they're not dating for reasons?

-Wait I know the tall guy, that's Asmodeus, from the episode I saw once with the weird song

-This clown is kind of a, well, a clown

-Oh, that guy I don't like much is back. Only, they're making him sympathetic with a sad backstory so I don't hate him anymore, I just find his voice kind of agitating

-It took, like, 2 seconds for that cowboy (he was in the episode with the married couple I like that shoots people) to grab that clown

-There's a paperwork subplot. Most of the episode is fighting, dancing, or dance fighting and there's a PAPERWORK SUBPLOT

-I like the animation. It's very smooth.

-There's a whole scene that's mostly just vague innuendos and I don't know how that makes me feel

-Current mood is the goon who dropped his stack of cards, pulled out a comically oversized gun, and shot a go-cart, triggering a chain reaction that freed his prisoners and started a song number

-There's a song? This is a musical show! Sick!

-Hey if I post about this the bad fans will rip me open for my dumb opinions

-OH NO THE POOR CLOWN IS AN AMPUTEE. AND NO ONE VISITED HIM IN THE HOSPITAL.

-After he sings a song and the annoying guy (Blitz, no o) welds though the ceiling?

-Bro this clown has so much trauma I swear

-The lust guy cares about consent! Very important! Love him

-The owl was back for literally no reason. I like him.

-The scene where our clown guy is back at home and he feels bad about how he made bad decisions and broke his arm? And his boyfriend who is literally the embodiment of lust is all nice and sweet and helps fix his arm? That melted my heart.

-Seriously, I almost cried. the ships are surprisingly, refreshingly healthy for a show about demon assassins

-I cannot believe I, the stone-hearted, loveless aro I am, who has sworn off all fandom activity, kind of definitely ships those two.

-It's because they remind me of Victoria and Tabitha

-IT'S BECAUSE THEY REMIND ME OF VICTORIA AND TABITHA

-I love that dynamic of "reckless and smol" and "chill and tol"

-Literally. It feels like Victoria and Tabitha. Vic reminds me of the clown, since she's small and mortal and gets into trouble, and Tabitha is the lust guy because she's protective and powerful and immortal

-I swear, I love that dynamic of "I think I'm unloveable" and "I love you anyway"

-Why is everyone in this show so horny all the time. Do they sleep
