-----------
Let's take a tally, shall we?

>>42811921
>implied to have lost a sister, the other one is in rehab - he's completely alone, as far as family goes

>>42811965 (You)
>the current "relationship" he has is toxic to both parties, costing Stolas his marriage and family life (he and Stella have divorced, since he mentioned Octavia is staying with her)
>all the while, Blitzo refuses to believe that it is anything more than sexual services for his continued usage of the book

>>42811976 (You)
>his relationship towards his employees is vicarious and borderline parasitic - he's a constant third wheel, and, in a cruel twist of fate, his clinginess, voyeurism and negativity while at work may be why he couldn't have became a true friend for the couple, with whatever added benefit that may come with

>>42811989 (You)
>his relationship with Moxxie in particular shows signs of both paternalism, and, unhealthily, sexual attraction
>all the while, he constantly berates him and uses him as a verbal punching bag - if the above notion about paternalism is true, this may mirror his own relationship with his father

>>42811997 (You)
>his actual attempt at parenthood is disastrous and one-sided - he doesn't really know how to treat Loona, and possibly adopted her at such a late age because it meant he could avoid the more meticulous, challenging parts of ACTUALLY being a parent, and caring for a child's wants and needs
>even so, he's VERY hands-off with Loona, until she actually starts to grow independent of him - at which point, he becomes possessive

>>42812009 (You)
>he sabotaged his past relationship - a fact that even he is aware of on some level, and feels guilty because of it
>all it does is add to his ever-growing mountain of self-loathing


Continuing...
-
>>42812024 (You)
>has clearly grown apart from his old friend, who had made it big (at the cost of his integrity, given that he's now partially robotic), while also remaining somewhat happy and cared for by a VERY powerful higher demon, Asmodeus - a straight (pun not intended) contrast to his own, paltry relationship with Stolas...

>>42812031 (You)
>...and this appears to have been a childhood friend, meaning their relationship was far longer than any he had, barring his own family


Blitzo is not a happy chappy.
-
ep 8 could be the redemption ep for blitzo
---------
So what I'm getting from this is

>be Blitzo
>living in the Lust circle of hell
>Live your life as a circus clown
>Freak accident
>>Mamma Tilla dies, take her neck thing
>>best friend Fizz loses half his body (now a cyborg imp)
>>Sister starts abusing substances because of the loss (now in rehab)
>Feel bad about it all
>Leave
>GF leaves you
>Adopt a Hellhound cuz feels lonely with no family
>because used to be a degenerate slt in Lust, get yourself involved with some royalty as a fk toy
>Become a homewrecker
>Whoops but not your problem
>Steal a cool book
>Busnessplan.jpg
>Find some cheap employees
>They a couple
>a very cute couple
>get jealous and obsessed
>cope by inserting yourself in their privet lives
-
Seems about right.
---------
Love.
-
Imagine if Verosika was actually a decent person but Blitz broke her heart badly so now she's a slt trying to get that feeling of true love back
>I don't have to imagine its probably true
-
I'd say her boozing is probably related. She strikes me as a nice lady when Blitzo isn't around.
----------
>Blitzo is not a happy chappy.

Aptly put
I like how you illustrated how actually fked Blitzo is.
------
So with canon Asmodeus now revealed lets do some sht with Asmonon
>Asmonon has to deal with Fizzarolli
>Asmodeus believes his son is going through a phase with his lack of rampant fking
>Asmodeus constantly pishing the idea of picking up the family business onto him
>[spoilers]asmodeus possibly sabotaging asmonons relationships believing he's protecting him[/dont work]
-
>asmonon had fizzorollibots as nannies
>develops a deep dislike of the fakes and the original
--------------
>first episode that's written by Viv instead of Brandon/whoever else usually does it
>Moxxie isn't constantly getting sht on
>Blitzo doesn't swear in every single sentence
>Blitzo doesn't constantly spew one-liners
>when Blitzo gets knocked down he doesn't immediately get back up/win in the end
Hmm, suspicious.
-
Brandon Rodgers sucks at fking writing.
-
Honestly he shouldn't really joined in the first place, I could had hired him to help pay his bills and sht. But nope, he picks the most laziest idea and still is in debt.
-
I think Brandon is good at coming up with isolated jokes and quips. The issue is that they're so fking constant+rapid fire in HB and 90% of them are coming from Blitzo.
-
Even the animation gags were funnier.
Looks like my faith in Viv is restored.
-
He really should just stick to do the voice
------
If the final episode is gonna be about blitzo accepting his problems with stolas and his life in general...
then the Striker's plan to kill stolas and the agents having a lot of footage of them killing everyone are gonna be plots for a future season?
------
Frizz and Asmodous are the biggest hypocrites in the room, they go on a long rant about being against sentimentality or love, yet they clearly seem to care for each other in a way beyond just being acquaintances.

Maybe everyone is jealous of the steady relationship Moxxie and Millie enjoy?
-
i didn't get that impression personally, they seem to be business partners only. actors in the same play
-
It's probably a "Rules for thee, not for me" thing going on. In any case they can go fk themselves, though they probably already have but you get what I mean.
-
they can be in love without singing an acoustic ballad about holding hands in front of a strip club
--------
cute pic, why did blitz even adopt her again? so he could get free cheap labor and a tax write off or something right?
-
Probably to feel like he has a family.
