- I think the design choice was deliberate. CHERUB itself is a reference to the way cherubim are described in genuine texts. The plush-doll nature of the rest of them is probably for the irony of having a pop-culture heavenly hug doll be a heartless bureaucrat. I kind of want Lucifer's rosy-cheeked china doll look to be the standard design for humanoid angels. Imagine one of the characters knocking the mask off of an exterminator who's covered in so much demon blood you can hardly see the soulless gunmetal grey of their armor anymore and they look like fuking Charlie underneath it.

- My problem with the episode wasn't any one single part, its the fact that the episode didn't end up being greater than the sum of its parts. It was disjointed, a little out of character, there were easily patched plot holes. We got a good lore dump, but the plot arc of an episode that on paper could be summed up as
- >Angelic guardians and demonic assassins battle over the fate of a living person's soul
- has no business being as underwhelmingly mediocre as it was. Oh well, it gave the trend chasing porno artists an inordinate amount of material to squeeze a few bucks out of. That's good right?

- In-between the bad jokes, horrible out of character moments (Millie ignoring Moxxie almost dying twice, demons caring about Human social issues, seemingly being apprehensive in killing a potentially innocent person, thinking that someone wanting to live is enough to go to Heaven, etc, etc), Humans once again being so retrded they ignore literal demons and the overall bad way the plot was advanced. I still find one thing I'm perplexed over is how the show is portraying dead Humans, Sinners and how some Sinners amass great magical powers.
- Some rich old guy who was a bastard dies and 30 seconds later he's in Hell wielding techno-overlord powers and suddenly also has enough money to instantly order an assassination.
- There have been endless discussions on how people like Alastor and co acquired their powers, yet the robot waluigi brother knockoffs somehow acquire theirs despite no obvious demonic interventions and we're all left wondering how this all works.
- If Jeff Bezos or Bill Gates die do their massive fortunes convert 1:1 to Hellbucks, and they can exchange hellbucks for demon level 10 powers??? Was Alastor just some rich guy who bought his powers at the respawn shop?
