The Second Trailer For The Second Season of Helluva Boss

Disclaimer:
This is an analysis and review of a trailer for the rest of the second season of an animated series that contains strong profanity and moderate cartoon violence, including a stabbing and one moment of gore. Reader discretion is advised.
 
During the Christmas break, four animated sneak peeks of a new episode of Helluva Bosswere summoned just before the reveal of official sneak peeks of Hazbin Hotel [49] [50]. Something sinfully delightful rose from the depths of diligence after many tomb raiders finally got to play Tomb Raider Reloaded on Valentine’s Day, also known as Lara Croft’s birthday [91] [109] [110]. While my fiancé and I were in Liverpool, loyal hazbeans witnessed the second official trailer for the second season of Helluva Boss in Las Vegas [4] [6] [30] [35]. It has been announced that four new episodes will be released throughout this Spring and this Summer, which means that the second trailer has made up for how the first one turned out to be partially misleading [26] [51]. Just like the previous trailer that was released in late 2021, it consists of incomplete animation sequences, which still shows the dedication to continue the second season throughout 2023 [4] [6]. Relishing in hellish proactivity [46], let us discuss what we can expect, according to what it seems in the second trailer for the second season of Helluva Boss, along with a bit of what was revealed during the Christmas break, some reflections on the previous trailer and a few concerns and hopes regarding some of the previous episodes.
This year’s Valentine’s Day-themed merchandise sure is hot, like the flames and desires in the ring of Lust [52]. [59]
Realistically and consistently, the title for the first trailer for the second season should have been titled “HELLUVA 2022/2023 TRAILER” to prevent a few accusations of partial false advertising [26] [51]. Nonetheless, the second one has pretty much made up for that. Credit for the screenshots of the recorded footage at LVL UP EXPO goes to Dani Draws, Mistress Mercury, DionneVestal and Iron_Icarus on Twitter [17] [20] [39] [60]. [6]
Before the trailer, members of the audience at LVL UP EXPO got to see a fully animated sneak peek of the upcoming episode that was teased near New Year’s Eve [4] [6] [49]. A new imp character is Crimson or "Crim" for short, Moxxie’s father is introduced in a similar manner to how I.M.P. met Millie’s parents in “The Harvest Moon Festival” which debunks the theory of him being dead outside of Moxxie’s dreams [53] [57]. He seems rather gentlemanly, most notably by how he kisses Millie’s hand, which is a little awkward as she is his daughter-in-law [4] [6]. However, the reason why Moxxie has never introduced his wife and boss to his father before could be quite troubling, even though the problematic father trope has already been done with Paimon and Cash Buckzo in “The Circus” [56]. Perhaps the trope can apply to Crimson, but for different reasons to avoid the trope being recycled and causing predictably. No offence to Richard Horvitz, but for the voice of Crimson, he could have deepened his voice [4] [6], just like how he did for Harold in The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy [12]. Crimson’s portrayal so far in the sneak peek has sparked my curiosity and I wonder how he will be compared to Millie’s parents, as well as Paimon and Cash Buckzo [4] [6] [56].
It looks like the place Crimson resides is in the Greed Ring. His uniform and the fellas who appear to be guards at the front door just reek of mafia boss vibes, much like Mr. Big from Zootropolis [115]. Real gangsters respect their mothers. Capiche? [6]
I almost knew Andrealphus would seem to be an anti-villain as he confronts Stolas for cheating on Stella whilst being quite…bitter witchy to him [4] [6], hinting at his arrogance. However, I know that many hazbeans will still root for my owl daddy [82], considering how controversial Stella became in “The Circus” [56]. Furthermore, I would not be surprised if Andrealphus turns out to be almost just as nasty as her. I did not notice that the faint laugh on the phone at Stolas’ mansion was from him in “Seeing Stars” [54]. His voice reminds me of Stolas’ old voice performed by Brock Baker from the pilot [53]. Perhaps Andrealphus’ debut could take place before the events of “Seeing Stars” to fill in the inconsistency of Stolas and Blitzo’s relationship in the second season so far due to the delay of the second part of the Season One finale [8] [19]. As for Andrealphus’ character in general, he could have supernatural abilities too as predicted in fanmade comics [1] [37]. If you recall a boss battle in either Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night or Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon [10], put up thy controllers because this interpretation is way different [4] [6] [48]. I will be expecting some ASMR roleplays starring the icy Goetia marquis very soon, even though he probably roasts on the Hell equivalent of Twitter Blue.
It will be quite exciting to finally see Andrealphus in action after his reveal last year [8]. Now, why would he look like an ice warlock when Hell is a fiery place of eternal damnation? Well, there is a bottom layer that is absolutely freezing, according to Dante’s Inferno [41], so I guess it makes sense to have a new character capable of striving in an icy climate. While Andrealphus indeed seems arrogant [55], a Disney devotee can technically classify Elsa from Frozen as an anti-villain [23]. [4]
It looks like Stella is still unforgiven by the majority of the fanbase as arguably the most controversial character of the series [56] [57]. The fact that Stolas has a lot of siblings, according to his father and old butler has led to his arranged marriage seeming pointless, which is quite a plot hole unless many of his siblings have been in arranged marriages as well [5] [56]. Looking back at Stella's villainous portrayal as an abuser in “The Circus”, there was hardly any subtlety in it at all [56] [68], leading to the episode being called out for lacklustre writing. Quite thankfully, there was not any terrible advice on how to deal with an abuser, unlike “The Girlfriend”, the twenty-second episode of the fourth season of The Amazing World Of Gumball [88]. I doubt that Stella would take kindly to pineapple on pizza [58] [95] [96], but at least I would be quite fascinated to see her married to a second husband who is likely to be another Goetia royal in association with revenge cheating [71]. Maybe there can be a redemption arc for her in a third season, despite how unlikely that sounds [44] [78] [99]. At least I had fun briefly spoofing “Santa Baby” during the Christmas break [71] [100] [101].
What can I say? Stella is pretty much the polar opposite of Princess Elise from Sonic ’06 [13] [56] [80]. I am not saying that the writing in Helluva Boss has been as thrilling as the writing in Squid Game in terms of developing characters [78] [93], but at least Stella’s old design from the pilot can be an alternate costume for her in a Helluva Boss fighting game [102]. [4]
Will everything be okay for Sutorasu Ouji [106]? Well, not exactly. Being kidnapped by Striker in another scene, he is calling someone on his phone [4] [6]. Could it be Stella after he forgot to delete her number after the divorce [56]? If Stolas is so powerful [58], then how come Striker managed to hold him hostage [4] [6]? Could he seduce him before doing so, quite like how he almost convinced Blitzo to join him in “The Harvest Moon Festival” [57]? This would be quite similar to how Vincent Brooks was seduced by a mysterious vixen in the game named after her [70] [108]. The battle between I.M.P. and Striker might as well be the gay R-rated equivalent of Mario rescuing Princess Peach [4] [6] [67]. But wait! What is this?! Striker STABS my owl daddy?! It is no wonder many hazbeans suspected that the hand at the end of the previous Season Two trailer is his [51]. Despite the show’s dark humour, I have a feeling that many tears will be shed during a near-death experience [4] [6]. On a lighter note, seeing him offer food to Gunter from Adventure Time on Twitter was just undeniably adorable [83] [97]! My owl daddy told me that I will be okay [84] [107], but will he be after the battle of the imps [4] [6]?
Although Stolas is still my owl daddy and I desperately hope that he will survive after getting stabbed by Striker [4] [6] [82], I am afraid that he has to be called out for his attitude towards imps aside from his Blitzy at some point [21]. The influences of his father would be partially to blame [56]. One new lesson for him could be to not let being a victim of verbal abuse and a kidnapping be an excuse for unintentional classism, along with the flaws of his parenting [21] [28]. On a lighter note, at least he has not once used what can be considered a slur against imps. I am looking at you, Val-Yor [42] [89]. Maybe the same “I’m not always the victim mentality” can apply to Princess Elise if she can be given a second chance in the future of the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise [13] [80]. [6]

I have been wanting to see the official debut and portrayal of Barbie Wire, Blitzo’s twin sister in the show for quite a long time after a mention of her from “Spring Broken” [55]. How identical she is still to her brother after some progression from the events of the pilot reminds me of the female equivalent of Rayman who was unfortunately scrapped alongside the outcome of a Super Nintendo Entertainment System version of his first game that sadly never happened [4] [6] [52] [77]. What could she possibly mean by her brother ruining her life? She is also seen fighting Moxxie in his disguise, leading to something more than a sibling rivalry. Speaking of disguises, she can disguise herself as convincingly as Stolas and Loona can [54], which ought to be explained in the episode she will make her debut [4] [6]. Admittedly, I made up a twin sister for Rayman and named her “Stacy” when I was a preteen. As an adult, I am glad to see the portrayal of Loona’s imp auntie will soon be brought into action with a few alternations of her design as hinted at the end of “Ozzie’s” [4] [6] [52]. Besides, I strongly believe that Mimmy White, Hello Kitty’s adorable identical twin sister needs more appreciation too [31] [79].
Barbie Wire’s portrayal could provide a little more depth than Verosika Mayday’s portrayal in “Spring Broken” [55]. One of the series’ criticisms is the very little or mediocre development for the female characters, but I believe Barbie Wire’s portrayal in her debut could be the most complex if he ultimately still sees the good in her brother, which would be a sign of some reasonable criticism being taken. [4]
Being the antiheroic protagonist of Helluva Boss, Blitzo might just earn some more progression. In the sneak peek of the third episode of the second season, he earns Crim’s respect regarding his business [4] [6], like how he gained approval from Striker before he turned out to be an aspiring hitman hired to assassinate Stolas in “The Harvest Moon Festival” [57]. I recall asking myself, “If the Blitzster came from quite a poor family, how was he able to afford to attend college [56] [58]?". Did his parents eventually get divorced, leading to his mother becoming happier and wealthier? I am pretty sure that he attended a community college as community colleges are less expensive to attend, compared to universities [114]. Perhaps there could be a flashback in a new episode of his time at the community college, along with his relationship with Verosika Mayday before an intense breakup [55]. There also appears to be an argument between him and a certain jester in the trailer that will be briefly discussed a little later [4] [6]. I shall expect more of the Blitzster’s vulgarity and snarky nature in the four new episodes of the second season [33], starting with the third one, but will he come to terms with his sister in another [52]?

Blitzo is impulsive 
He cannot spell, 
Yet he’s a boss in 
The depths in Hell 
He may be reckless, yeah! And not a pimp… 
But the one thing he’s not is a scaredy imp [24]. [6]
And now, back to Moxxie. In a scene of the second work-in-progress trailer, he is ordered to leave Blitzo’s office that seems to have a slight visual upgrade, yet he seems delighted as he closes the doors [4] [6]. He is seen disguised as a teenage girl in another scene and trying to act peppy and stereotypical to go along with it, which potentially makes up for how he and Millie did not wear disguises in “Seeing Stars” [54]. And of course, this is not the first time we saw him in drag [58]. What issue could he have with Crim? What about his mother? Was she the one being murdered in a dream of his, resulting in him gaining Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder [53]? Aside from how the reason for his panic attacks ought to be explained at some point with a little subtlety, I still hope he and Millie will remain in love with one another, despite how he can be distracted by art, quite like me [54]. Aside from his faithfulness, something about a new character who asks him a sexual question will be explained later as there must be something that would push him into committing a theft with him as hinted in the previous work-in-progress trailer [49] [51].

All those preps from the Club Penguin days ain’t got nothing on Moxxie [9] [15]! [4]
What can I say about Millie and Loona? It looks like Millie is just as brutal as she has been during her duties as Moxxie’s right-hand queen [4] [6]. She even goes as far as to spit out what appears to be a blue beating heart in the trailer. As for her marriage, I would be delighted to see a flashback of the time Moxxie popped a question, much to me and my fiancé’s empathy [98]. In the trailer, Loona is seen being carried by Blitzo [4] [6]. Her advice to Octavia in “Seeing Stars” may not always be recommendable in real life [54] [76], but I am up for her softer side popping up in a new episode or two, especially when it comes to making up for an argument with the Blitzster. However, the stunt that was pulled when he reunited with her after his live performance in “Seeing Stars” should not be pulled again to help her likability be maintained for the rest of the second season [18] [74]. As a sucker for female empowerment who would love to see an official crossover with Lara Croft and Wonder Woman [2], I would be pumped for some more girl power in any of the four upcoming episodes of Helluva Boss [4] [6]. 
 
That does NOT look nutritious, Mils! [4]
We are also yet to see if Loona is still crushing on Vortex from “Spring Broken” or not [55], which would have been possible for those outside of SpindleHorse by now if it was not for the legal issues regarding the eight episode’s postponement [8]. Maybe the next adoption anniversary gift for her from Blitzo can be better than a flock of spiders [53]. [4]

Anything to say about some other demons? We get to see Fizzarolli and Asmodeus and a mysterious new character who was previously revealed in a preview for the new episode being hinted at in the sneak peek [4] [6]. The new character’s name is “Chaz”, yet the design of his jacket made me refer to him as “Bones” at first and he seems to have the hots for Moxxie as previously hinted in the previous trailer [49] [51] [66]. He could be his ex-boyfriend, even though he spelt his name wrong in one of his signs. What connection could he have with Crimson? As for Fizzarolli and Ozzie, it appears that they reside together and must be in a relationship as hinted in “Ozzie’s” [4] [6] [52]. There also appears to be an argument between Fizzarolli and Blitzo possibly before a moment of them performing together, leading to some further character progression for them in terms of what happened to cause their childhood friendship to be destroyed. Lastly, the official design of Mammon was revealed during the Christmas break, along with a hint about the way he talks, leading to the likeliness of him speaking in an Australian accent [38]. I would be interested to see some exploration of Fizzarolli and Asmodeus’ relationship, along with the portrayals of new fiends [4] [6] [49].
Fizzarolli’s expression here is pricelessly adorable. He also appears to be pulling a stunt as he is surrounded by an audience near the end of the trailer [4] [6]. How functional will his relationship with Ozzie be in general? [4]
Aside from the portrayals of Chaz and Mammon, I am also curious about Adam, an exterminator who is yet to appear in Hazbin Hotel [29]. [38]

I hope that the four new episodes can be written better than “The Circus” and “Seeing Stars” and help the second season excel even further [4] [6]. The writing of “Seeing Stars” may have poked another plot hole regarding the power of his grimoire, considering how powerful he was without the use of it in “Truth Seekers” unless the apparent limitations might be caused by his human disguise [54] [58] [105], but it seems like some extra effort will be put into the rest of the second season as it has been five months since the release of “Seeing Stars” [4] [54], which would be unmistakably enlightening. Surely, some of the jokes in the series seemed kind of like playing Cards Against Humanity [25], but there can still be some new depths and meanings throughout the rest of the second season. I have held onto the optimistic hope of the second season’s writing becoming even better for many viewers, but no matter how much I hope, I shall not use leaked information as part of research to respect the hardworking team at SpindleHorse and if a hazbean prefers the continuity of the pilot and Voxtagram stories from 2020 that consists of Stella’s old design, that is absolutely okizay [7] [16] [43] [53] [73]. 
It is okay to point out what you personally think is flawed in an episode [18] [68] [76]. Just because an episode is a little flawed to a degree, does not mean you cannot enjoy a new season at all. Besides, there have only been two episodes of the second season of Helluva Boss so far and there is a lot of potential for it to become even better. [56]
Before the reveal of the trailer, I felt like nobody wanted me to be happy with being a hazbean anymore [69] [75] [76] [104]. As previously mentioned, I vowed to not use any of the leaked information for research out of respect towards SpindleHorse [7] [73]. Just because I adore Helluva Boss, does not mean I am its “simp” or “hive-minded” or that I am giving bad writing a "free pass" [69] [103]. I found the writing of the first season of Mr. Pickles choppy with over-reliance on shock value [86], but I found it better in the second season. I may sound like I have no idea how production works when hoping for improvement and the number of perspectives in “Seeing Stars” was not as impressively handled as “Crime After Crime”, the eighth episode of the third season of Foster’s Home For Imaginary Friends [27] [36] [54], but opinions are opinions and you do not always have to agree with a critic. I am always up for witnessing further progression, despite minor issues, such as inconsistent marketing [26]. After all, I have watched animated television shows with some episodes that had better writing than others as beloved shows can still have their weaknesses, such as the weakest skits in Stupid being the character Vince trying to get his parents divorced [61] [62].
I still stand by my warning to the Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss fandom after the release of “Seeing Stars” [54] [94]. On a lighter note, I had too much fun tweeting a parody of All-Star by Smashmouth back in October [22]. Moreover, I bet there will be another fan zine to read the hell out of [45]. [54]
In conclusion, a new trailer for the rest of the second season of Helluva Boss is even more promising than the previous one [4] [6] [51]. There will be more stories to tell in Storytellerthis March [3] [112] [113]. Will the second season’s writing improve for some fellow critics? And will Agent Elvis be a thrilling escape from Heartbreak Hotel on Netflix [64]? As much as I do not want Stolas of the Ars Goetia to die, I am curious to see how Blitzo and Moxxie would count their kikigai [63]. Regardless of a show slowly losing popularity [32], there can still be a crowd who admires it almost unconditionally. Besides, even as a former creepypasta fan, I understand that creepypasta is still relevant to some readers to this day [34] [64]. I also hope my fellow simmers continue to enjoy celebrating twenty-three years of The Sims [90]. As much as I do not want Stolas of the Ars Goetia to die [4] [6] [51] [57], I am curious to see how Blitzo, Moxxie and Loona would count their kikigai [63]. I swear that being a fan of Helluva Boss does not make me “easy to manipulate” or “a butthurt idiot” [76], much like how letting Deadpool break the fourth wall in my articles on him did not break my sanity [40] [111]. Stay sinful, fellow sinners.

I would like to thank a few fellow hazbeans for their own artworks of Lisa Cooper, along with those who took a liking to my song parodies [11] [71] [92]. There might be a time when I eventually “grow out of this phase”, but I will always be grateful for Medrano’s hellish creations have helped me cope through some troubling times [104]. [4]
Medrano’s decision to not upload the trailer onto her YouTube channel must be to make it extra special [14] [47]. As much as I bet that the episode will be worth the wait, especially some new musical numbers [81], I hope Stolas will have a nice slice of rooibos apple pie on his birthday this year [86]. [4]
