Hazbin Hotel discourse is so weird because it seems to be far more people complaining about the problematic unhealthy sexual dynamics - the most interesting choices in the damn thing - and far less people pointing out the storytelling is actively incompetent.

I've held back on criticizing it because the fandom/hatedom are so exhausting. The sister show on YouTube is better though, so I have to wonder how much of the problem stems from it being a DeviantART teen's dream project vs from them working with Prime and not knowing how many seasons they'd get.

It really shows its roots yeah. Its storytelling feels more like a bunch of concept art for a passion project than it does a plot.

It's like every episode has another Glup Shitto with their own fan base going back years, haha. Ironically, I thought the pilot handled it just fine! So it was a real surprise when the first episode opened with 2 monologues of set up and SO many characters at once.
