Helluva Boss

This show started out with jokes made by a 13-year old that just learned about sex and an animation frame rate that was never really on point. I decided to keep watching to see where this would go, because I loved vivzie's comics. Boy does this show know how to make you LOVE their characters. The later episodes stopped overusing sex and cursing and started focusing more on the story. With all their characters being a lovable mess and the beautiful backgrounds you can just feel the ambition and love put into it! This show is definitely worth the wait (and I do mean wait because there is a long period between episodes)!

"Helluva Boss" is a great show for what it is. It is completely free to watch on YouTube and has animation on par and even better than most modern adult animations. The characters are all very easy to like, despite most of them being horrible people. It is a fun and original show that I feel deserves more acknowledgement. The only minor complaint I have is the somewhat formulaic episode structure and the long waiting period between the episodes. Otherwise it is a great show deserving of praise.

Firsto off, I want to say that it is impressive that this series is entirely independent considering the quality of animation, voice acting, desings, and overall quality. I fully support this series and will continue watching it while valuing the effort behind its production. With that said, I think theres a lot that could be improved, mainly a lot of the jokes and the tone. The series is mostly episodical and tries to be funny at all times, and while some times they do achive this, its not the rule. There are some episodes and some scenes were there are some jokes that just feel out of place and not on time, while also depending a lot in swearing, blood, absurdity and shock. And Im all for it, its just that at one point it gets very repetitive and unfunny. Its the same with the violence and blood. Im perfectly fine with that and there is some very good implementation of these elements in some episodes, but just as the jokes, the fact that its very continuos makes it tiring, repetitive and it makes them to lose their impressiveness. Still a good and overall funny show, but that could be much better.

We didn't expect an animation this detailed from Vivziepop since Hazbin Hotel was released literally a few days before. This hit us by surprise. It is only a pilot, but it is amazing.

All of the main characters were likeable and I found the humor hit better with me from this show than Hazbin's humour did. I would probably say I ended up enjoying this a little more than Hazbin Hotel. I would recommend you check this out if you like dark humour. Stolas and Loona were two characters which make me chuckle uncontrollably, and Moxxie and Millie's relationship is so sweet! Definitely a pilot I would love to see be turned into a show!

My spouse loves this show, but it's really not my cup of tea.

Creative world-building, but the shows attempts to strike a range of emotions with its audience through music, humor, emotion, action. It can often be a hit-or-miss.

The plot feels a bit scattered with each episode contributing little to an overall plot. I don't see much character development & don't feel connected to the characters.

The humor isn't too clever and seems to heavily rely on comments being as vulgar/sexual as possible. Which becomes predictable and lackluster within a few episodes.

Ultimately, I think it's worth checking out the 1st episode. But there's no need to keep watching if it doesn't capture your interest from there.
