The only critique I can agree with on Asmodeus is that he's just kinda been delegated to being Fizz's lover and boyfriend and not so much as the lord of Lust.

Of course even if the show focused more on that, they'll still complain about it, because it's a Vivziepop show.

And yet were also mad that Val was some horrible abusive pimp.

These people stand for truly nothing, and change their beliefs on the fly.

Anti-hellaverse people don't try to look for flaws, they just look for things to be bitch about.

And it's not like Beezlebub is totally innocent either. It's been theorized in the fandom that she's willingfully signs off on the horrid conditions and management of hell's hellhound adoption centers.

People are shallow and take things at face value and just roll with it.

Flanderization used to be scoffed at, now it's celebrated and even highly RECOMMENDED or else you're writing is incredibly undecisive and waves of accusations of "retconning" will be thrown aside you and you're a pussy who can't commit to writing true evil and yada yada.

And to alot of people, that's a bad thing.

Since this show takes place in Hell™, all nuance and complexity must be thrown out the window. Everybody must be some super duper angry eldritch edgelord or else the show is "babified" and an "incorrect" interpretation of hell.

Not only that, but they cannot be bothered to show any respect or decency in any of their critiques, while demanding the artist they harshly bash to do the same towards them.

I'm pretty sure they just want EVERYBODY in both shows to be some super duper edgy Eldritch monster.

Satan to them doesn't count because he has a therapist on his shoulder that helps cool him down.

It's actually crazy how shallow and unimaginative alot of Hellaverse critics are.

What character? Did we even watch the same pilot? 😭😭😭😭

Lmaooo I thought this poster was the real deal for a second

The thing about posts like these is that they all feel like a psy-op for some kind of weird slander campaign.

Alot of misconceptions about the hellaverse could be cleared up if people actually WATCHED the show, not just memes and out of context clips.

Stereotypical "I'm one of the good ones" talk we see from these pseudo-progressives.

Not once does Hazbin ever make a big deal out of any of the characters being queer, it just happens to be who they are.

You are not a real fucking ally if your support for us is ultra-conditional.

Ao3 is free to use btw

He... wasn't much of a character in the pilot. He didn't even appear at all in it if I remember right.

Is this another case of people getting overly-fascinated with a headcanon and being disappointed he didn't end up being this person that was never once hinted in the show?

Modern media critics would never be able to get that, though.

EVERYTHING HAS TO BE HAND WAVED TO THEM, or the show is actually justifying their actions.
