Title: Hazbin Hotel: Animated Pilot Episode
Post by: aintnobuffalo on November 14, 2019, 01:53:53 PM
Has anyone season the indy pilot animation episode of Hazbin Hotel? I think it's so fun and cute while stil dark and adult- audience focused. I love all the characters. What do you guys think? You can check it out on YouTube. The creator shared some surprise for the over 10 million views.

I thought it was cute! It's pretty well animated and I like the potential that the characters have. I think Husker is my favorite design!

I’ve been anticipating the pilot for a while-and I’m quite proud of everyone who worked on it. Most large scale projects like this are the result of a company. I liked the pilot, and it was obviously well worth the wait and accepted by the community. I feel that even if you didn’t like the pilot, one can’t deny the amount of dedication, blood, sweat and tears that went into it.
My favourite character personally is nifty. There’s just this charm about her, and the fact she resembles my first dnd character. Short, overly happy, quick...ah memories. When sir pentious (pentous? Pentius? The snake guy with eggs) blew off the door, taking down nifty in the process...that was honestly how I expected my character to die in some silly accident.

Yes! I love Husker and Nifty! I think they are going to bring a lot to the hotel and are one of the reasons I'd be so excited to see more.

I think my favorite is Charlie. I relate to her idealist spirit and struggle to get people to buy in. She also would totally be a DND character I would make, so it's interesting you say that about Nifty Mewtwofan1. And Charlie's design is amazing; makes me want to cosplay her! Alistair is a close second though; so scary! His design is so fun, and I love the Vaudeville voice. What an interesting motivation. The drama that can can come from the creators' setup is exciting!

I saw it yesterday, and I enjoyed it.  I'm actually surprised that (unless I'm wrong) only one episodes seems to have been done, because I kept seeing so much tweeting over it (I'm following someone involved in it) I thought it was a full series, or at least had more than one episode.  Either way, I hope they keep going with this, it looks fun.

Among other things, I found it a nice touch that Alastor's voice was recorded differently, due to him being "The Radio Demon".

I've watched it and I like i5. ^^ I've watched Helluva Boss as well and it's pretty nice too. ^^

I've watched and re-watched so many times it's embarrassing. I absolutely adore Alistor; a villain that is malevolent, sinister, creepy, malicious, vicious, and can turn his threat on or off when he wants? HECK yes. Plus, he canonically asexual (see his reaction to Angel's proposition, plus creator confirmation) and most likely aromantic, as he's confirmed he won't have a love interest if the series is greenlit. The radio sounds when he moves or expresses himself, the unrelenting smile, the overwhelming red theme, notice the moments when the radio effects go away and he speaks closer to his 'true' voice? I think that's him expressing genuine sentiment and is not the 'act' voice, if that makes sense.

I really like Niffty as well, the ambient sounds in it are great, love the artstyle! I'm already a fan, and can't wait to see if it gets picked up.

A lot of people already pointed out Charlie has a very good chance of getting into Heaven; she's born in Hell, and therefore didn't have a past life to sin in. Plus, well, look at this rosy-cheeked cupcake.
