Shrek 5 In The Works At DreamWorks. Now What?

My fiancé and I were spellbound by the outcome of Puss In Boots: The Last Wish, from the masterful animation that provided action sequences that remind me of Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse to the humour that partially proved that animated films are NOT just for kids in this day and age [36] [64] [69]. Shrek 5 was officially announced at the time new trailers for Barbie and Spider-Man: Across The Spiderverse were released [1] [22] [40] [63] [70] [73]. I recall discussing how such a concept can excel in the near future of animated movies with you back in January [80] [81]. The idea for a fifth Shrek film may have been scrapped after the release of Shrek Forever After, leading to some fans being like, “Like THAT’S ever gonna happen!” [44] [55] [74], but its re-development that began in 2014 has been a sign of nostalgia being put into proactivity for almost a decade aside from a huge demand for Shrek to become a fighter in the fourth Super Smash Bros. game and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate [44], which never happened [68]. Let us expand on our hopes for a quite ironically elevating outcome of Shrek 5 beyond the time I ate green chocolate from a Shrek 2 advent calendar as a child.
Let us simply refer to a fifth Shrek movie in development as “Shrek 5” yet its release title could be something more creative [55] [80] [81]. Speaking of creativity, I enjoyed tweeting a parody of All Star by Smashmouth within a collaboration for the second time [44] [77], despite how Twitter almost caused me to no longer enjoy Vivienne Medrano’s Hellaverse [4] [12] [23]. [57]

Shrek is the cynical ogre who proved that ogres CAN live happily ever after [44] [45], but that might not always be the case if there could be other signs of prejudice against his race out there in Shrek 5, despite his popularity shown in Shrek The Third and the beginning of Shrek Forever After [46] [47]. As previously mentioned, he could reflect on how his parents raised him, especially during a flashback scene of his childhood [80] [81], along with how his love for Fiona made a big difference in society [46]. What if he were to meet a long-lost younger brother or cousin who could be loosely based on an entirely different interpretation of him from the scrapped version of the first film without disrespecting the legacy of Chris Farley who passed away in 1997 [6] [27] [41] [42]? If so, then the relative could reflect on how toxic his parents were and the widespread prejudice against ogres as well [80] [81]. Some new character progression for the one and only Shrek, such as meeting a long-lost relative and reflecting on how his parents raised him as a reference to the book and the musical could make Shrek 5 a little more necessary than it sounds [21] [22] [57].
Dare to challenge Shrek in a freestyle rap battle [32]? He stood out of his own way to undo the alternate reality caused by a big mistake he made in Shrek Forever Ever [46] [47]. A fifth adventure with him could be another tasty grilled green cheese sandwich that is not just for Saint Patrick’s Day [13]. And yes, as previously hinted, food-related marketing for the first two Shrek films was infamous yet fascinatingly bizarre back in the day [61]. Since yesterday was International Asexuality Day [19], I suppose that Shrek could be greysexual or demisexual [3]. [32]
Rumour has it that Donkey will get his own spin-off movie [55]. If so, then there ought to be some further exploration of his ironic yet ultimately wholesome relationship with Dragon that could be set in between Shrek and Shrek 2, possibly along with how he used to be a human during a flashback scene that could possibly be set during his high school years [26] [31] [44] [45] [47]. Could Pinocchio recall such a time as well [30]? Speaking of Shrek 2, what majestic new form could Dragon have been in after Shrek and Donkey took the Happily Ever After potion [45]? A pink pegasus, according to the creators [8]? And what could have caused their relationship to seem on the rocks aside from maternal sass before they resiled [45]? Alternatively, the spin-off film could take place before he met Shrek, much like how the first spin-off film starring Puss In Boots focused on the times before he met our green hero [35]. It is quite sad that Shrek 4D was closed at Universal Studios Florida a year ago [39], but Donkey’s wittiness and positivity can enlighten a new journey in Shrek 5 and Shrek 4D could still be around at Universal Studios Singapore and Universal Studios Japan [54]. 
What did Donkey study if he ever attended a community college [26]? How well would a spin-off film centred around him do [55]? I bet some of us miss the animatronic of him at Universal Studios Florida [39]. [53]

Surely, Donkey’s significant other could receive some backstory in either Shrek 5 or a spin-off film centred on him. Could she be referred to as “Elizabeth” at some point [49]? And please ensure the return of Eclair, the Dronkey who has been missing since Shrek The Third [45] [46] [47]! [49]

Anything new for Puss In Boots as he makes the most of his last life, mis amigos [36] [69]? As unlikely as this sounds, perhaps the ending of
 Shrek 5 could feature him FINALLY marrying Kitty Softpaws to make up for how they BOTH left the altar at some point throughout their relationship in contrast to Shrek marrying Fiona at the end of the first Shrek film [35] [36] [44]. Perrito, his companion from Puss In Boots: The Last Wish could be his best mammal [36]. But before that, he and Donkey ought to make jabs at each other as usual but ultimately remain noble in perhaps a new moment of character progression. I also believe there can be a moment of him speaking Italian as Antonio Banderas is also fluent in Italian [48] [80] [81] [82] [83]. Perhaps there could also be a call-back to The Adventures of Puss In Boots, the animated series that takes place before his first spin-off film [28] [29] [37]. Even when the focus is back on his boss, Puss can still be our favourite fearless hero, especially after releasing that he did not need to wish for eight extra lives in his second spin-off film [36]. Let us hope that none of his previous eight lives was responsible for the murder of Sonic the Hedgehog [62].
Who is the writer of this new article?
Who is the writer of this new article [36]? [69]
One of the franchise’s plot holes is how Fiona’s parents both have British accents, yet she speaks in an American accent [45] [46] [47]. No offence to Cameron Diaz who played her role amazingly throughout the four Shrek films [44] [45] [46] [47]. Aside from a flashback of Fiona being cursed by a witch as a child [80] [81], she can learn some of her kung-fu skills from Queen Lillian and further develop them, along with her hope for a handsome prince to rescue her during her time in the tower [45] [47]. As for her life as an ogre, she could help further eliminate persecution against ogres alongside her husband - Zootopia style [85], which would be consistent with how she led a tribe of ogres in the alternate universe in Shrek Forever After [46]. However, this new ambition must not be overly preachy as there would need to be some room for humour and the overall structure of a new adventure beyond the swamp. As proud as I am of my homegirl Princess Peach striving through an obstacle course in a new sneak peek of The Super Mario Bros. Movie [65], I would be quite infatuated if the caring and rational former princess of Far Far Away were to have a new goal and some new character development in Shrek 5.
An engaging new goal for Fiona in Shrek 5 could be campaigning alongside the other ogres who appeared in the alternate universe in Shrek Forever After to further prove that ogres, including those who used to be humans, can live happily ever after too [46], much like how young autistic adults like me can prove that they deserve to be happily employed whilst receiving support from employers and colleagues. [57]
It may be a bit too late to reboot the Harry Potter franchise [10] [15] [38], but I believe that a certain aspect of a new adaption of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets ought to further tackle prejudice against wizards who are related to muggles, such as having a professor call Draco out for calling Hermione a “mudblood” [14] [16]. Quite similarly, Fiona can help deal with prejudice against ogres in Shrek 5, leading to an effective new role for some of the other ogres from Shrek Forever After [46], possibly fleshing them out a little more. [56]
Surely, there ought to be some engaging new antagonists in Shrek 5. How come Prince Charming did not notice and acknowledge the absence of Dragon before finding out Fiona had already been rescued at the beginning of Shrek 2 [45]? If Charming was a better person, he would be a good sport, not vow to seek revenge on Shrek in Shrek The Third and go find another princess to marry and another kingdom to rule [47], right? If only he and Rapunzel ruled their own kingdom without resorting to villainy. Since that never happened, a new antagonist for Shrek 5 could be Prince Charming’s father who may have divorced Fairy Godmother at some point yet had another child with her and possibly had the ambition to rule Far Far Away too [7] [80] [81]. Could a sibling of Prince Charming vow to avenge their mother and brother despite a possible divorce? If Shrek and Fiona’s children were to be aged up a little, perhaps Lancelot can return to confront an older and experienced Arthur Pendragon after graduating from Worcestershire Academy [47]. Aside from the possibilities of villainy in Shrek 5, I still wonder if Fairy Godmother and Prince Charming ever found out about Lord Farquaad’s plans to marry Fiona [44] [45].
Goodness me, Lord Farquaad! You dirty rascal [44]! [26]
The Shrek franchise is jam-packed with witty interpretations of storybook characters [44] [45] [46] [47]. I am sure that Shrek 5 could provide some new explorations for them, no matter how minor they seem. Suzie’s, Gingy’s girlfriend who appeared in Shrek The Halls could make an appearance alongside him [75]. Could Grumpy mention being Lord Farquaad’s father as a reference to the musical adaption [51]? How about letting the Headless Horseman play the flute on stage and the Evil Queen run her own spa during the era of Far Far Away being ruled by Arthur Pendragon who could eventually join Shrek on a new quest [47]? The Big Bad Wolf can provide some positive genderfluid representation for today’s society as he was able to transform into a human woman under a full moon in The Pig Who Cried Werewolf [75]. And let us not forget about THE MUFFIN MAN [44]!!! Lastly, why not establish a new version of the fortune teller who was scrapped during the first movie's long, troubled, and complex production as another reference to the book by William Steig [21] [22] [41]? Just like onions and ogres [44], Shrek 5’s outcome could have layers, including one involving some small progressions for the supporting characters. 
Would Grumpy also recall his relationship with a princess who could not sleep because of a pea before disowning his son as a call-back to the musical [51] [52]? [51]
What? [53]

Far Far Away Idol was an amusing bonus feature for Shrek 2 on DVD that featured a parody of Simon Cowell [50], but I still recommend reducing the number of pop culture references for the sake of providing more effective forms of creativity and referencing aspects of social media may not fit in a crazy world of fairytales very well [80] [81], even though I would be up for more bizarre parodies of television shows and such [26]. Moreover, I remember the information booth at Duloc parodying itself in Scared Shrekless, which resulted in a little role reversal [60]. But aside from a new dose of wittiness, there still needs to be some depth to show that the film will have layers, just like onions and ogres [44]. As previously mentioned, Shrek and Fiona ought to reflect on the insecurities they developed as children and possibly use them as motives to fight prejudice against ogres and ensure that they can find their happy ever afters just like how they did [44] [46]. The plot of Shrek 5 might not be as deep as not knowing what you have to be grateful for until it suddenly disappears in Shrek Forever After [46], but there is still hope for it not being another Shrek The Third to some brogres [11] [58].
There also could be a new location that would be considered more creative than the boarding school Arthur Pendragon was constantly bullied at in Shrek The Third [47], even if it would be a bizarre interpretation of Wonderland as a reference to characters from Alice In Wonderland from Shrek: The Musical [80] [81], but obviously not as gritty and disturbing as Alice: Madness Returns [30]. [59]

In conclusion, the hopes for a fifth Shrek film are held as high as a flock of Dronkeys flying in the sky [46] [47]. As a result of it being successful in about a lustrum, there might as well be a new tidal wave of Shrek products, including some that could be considered less favourable than others, yet two mistakes that were made to promote Shrek Forever After should not be made again [61]. In the meantime, our Poké players ought to watch out for Friede and Captain Pikachu in a blimp above Paldea in Pokémon Horizons later this month [5] [66]. This Summer, I could swing into the full potential of Spider-Man: Across The Universe with my fiancé and relish in the feminine flair and elegant empowerment I sensed during my childhood if I go and see Barbie as a full-grown woman [63] [72] [73]. Shrek 5 and Toy Story 5 could be two examples of getting the best of both worlds when you merge proactivity with nostalgia [70] [71] [80] [81], even though that may not always work out as some things are better off left in the past [2] [24] [76], but it is at least worth a try under certain circumstances. And yes, The Simpsons is STILL running [67].
Anyone up for a mud bath later [74]? The mud can be melted chocolate or chocolate icing! Try not to end up like Augustus Gloop though [9] [84]! [59]
Defend your swamps like castles and have a Happy Western or Eastern Easter, brogres [20] [25]! I know a certain merc from Marvel will with two baskets full of grenades disguised as chocolate eggs [79]! [43]

Even More Hopes For Helluva Hotel In Hell

Disclaimer:

This is an article reflecting on two cartoon pilots and a first season set in the same fictional universe that contain content aimed at mature audiences, including:

  •        Strong cartoon violence, including blood and gore
  •        Moderate drug references
  •        Strong profanity
  •        Explicit sex references
  •        Hellish and disturbing imagery
  •        Other mature subjects, including suicide

There will be also a theory about a fictional character regarding signs of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. Reader discretion is advised.

Hello and buongiorno, fellow Hazbeans! The potentially official Italian dub for “That’s Entertainment”, the pilot episode of Hazbin Hotel premiered today after being teased on Twitter and the solo YouTube channel owned by its creative team over two weeks ago [7] [8] [28]. Accordingly, the team’s Italian dub for the pilot episode of Helluva Boss will be established during the next Christmas break, further enhancing the Vivziepop circles of Hell’s appeal to Italian viewers [15]. Surely, an official Japanese dub of the sister series’ pilot and the French dub of the first episode of its first season are highly likely to eventually be established [42] [87] [88], even though how the characters only have four fingers on each hand could negatively affect the appeal in Japan [1]. With the sixth episode of Helluva Boss taking an extra month to produce, according to a tweet and a promotional video for the Spring sales of new merchandise [32] [51], I thought I might wedge some more hopes for both properties in between the release date of “The Harvest Moon Festival” and the rest of this Summer when the sixth episode will be established after the appeal of the Italian dub of “That’s Entertainment” spawned [8] [47]. Besides, there is plenty of Angel Dust’s fluff for every Hazbean to go around [36].

Congratulazioni to the Hazbin Hotel Italiania Team for successfully establishing the seemingly official Italian dub of the pilot [8], just like how the Hazbin Hotel Version Française team worked diligently on establishing the official French dub back in May 2020 [22] [75] [76]! I thought the Italian dub was going to be uploaded onto Vivienne Medrano’s YouTube channel, but I suppose the Italiania Team must be aware of how busy her schedule must be currently. Furthermore, I could still classify it as an official dub as the team even took some time to translate the show’s logo for the thumbnail. [8]

Let us investigate what we could expect from future developments of other characters of Hazbin Hotel. I would be highly interested to see how Alastor evolved into an overlord after being dammed for his sins [8]. After all, he is one of the most recognisable characters besides Angel Dust. Perhaps that could be established in a flashback during the run of the hotel’s business. He is quite the antihero as proven in the comic series named “The Radio Demon” [2] [3] [4] [5], so we are yet to see how he would either assist in helping a sinner be redeemed or cause the personal progress to backfire solely for entertainment. Some of his antiheroic tendencies are highly similar to Venom’s mannerisms in his live-action film that was released in 2018 [4] [5] [69], especially when the overlord slaughters a butcher who was assaulting a sheep-like sinner. I still do not think the radio demon can be trusted with driving without running over a pedestrian, but perhaps he can go on a “second date” with Angel Dust at the bar in a new episode of Hazbin Hotel [41]. I also thank him dearly for making me lose my appetite in a speed drawing of him from Summer 2017 [49].

We know that Alastor only wants to help Charlie run a hotel for sinners to become better people just for his own amusement. I am pretty sure he would still violate her privacy by using Angel Dust to break into her room [35]. Other than that, could there be a flashback of how he was a radio show host when he was still alive that will expand on his character development? [8]

Could there be a softer side of Husk in an episode of the first season of Hazbin Hotel? Surely, he is grouchy and apathetic as shown in the pilot [8], but I would be interested to see the reason why he is often like that. Perhaps that can be established in a flashback in a new episode. I am sure he could eventually get along with Angel Dust at the bar at some point during his road to redemption. After all, he is hinted that he is pansexual [17]. There can also be examples of how he can speak in a different language, such as Italian and Mandarin Chinese in some new episodes. Niffty ought to receive some development outside of her cleaning duties in the series, speaking in Japanese, being a hopeless romantic and playing either the guitar or tambourine in another musical number [19]. Perhaps she can develop a relationship with a fellow cleaner or a guest. During the gradual success of the hotel’s business, there ought to be some fascinating developments of the employees besides a variety of sinners doing their best to be considered decent enough to start a new afterlife in Heaven.

Funny I should mention Husk’s ability to speak Italian considering the release of the potentially official Italian dub of the pilot. [8]

Perhaps Husk, Niffty, Mimzy and Angel Dust can form a team if the hotel is put at risk of going bankrupt, even if it resorts to them being in a provocative car washing montage. What a team they would be [50]! As for the solo development for Niffty, I am sure that it will be utterly adorable. [8]

Any other characters who only made cameos in “That’s Entertainment”? Perhaps a new episode can feature how Rosie feels about Franklin’s tragic fare and how it could affect Rosie’s Emporium in a side plot [21]. We are yet to see how Lucifer Magne, Charlie’s father is a completely separate character from Satan. No! Not Satan, otherwise known as “Dark Prince” outside of Japan from the Puyo Puyo series [62]! I just wonder how functional the relationships with his wife and daughter will be, compared to a certain family of royal birds from Helluva Boss. Ugh! How I wish for karma to kick Valentino in the nuts for how abusive he is to Angel Dust [24] [89] [90]. Vox and Velvet may also be considered awful overlords as well, but they would need to be guilty of deplorable crimes at some point in the television series [25] [26]. Crymini is apparently into pornographic media at the age of nineteen [13], but could that lead to some consequences? Aside from how I wish some of these cameos the best when it comes to getting a new voice and some focus in the television series, how I want to see Katie Killjoy get fired from 666 News at some point [8]!

Featuring what character developments will be in other places besides the hotel in subplots, including Rosie’s Emporium can prevent the prime premise from gradually going stale. [8]

What can I say about the rest of Angel Dust’s family and peers beside his twin sister and Cherri Bomb [91] [92]? Arackniss, his older brother does not seem to be a very nice fellow [10]. The same could apply to that one-eyed fellow in the music video for “Addict” with Cherri Bomb showing signs of disapproval towards him [89] [90]. Furthermore, he might be an antagonist in a new episode of the first season of Hazbin Hotel. The name of Angel’s father appears to be a play on the word “heroin” [16]. I think establishing that he and his wife have been divorced at some point would make the cast a bit more diverse. Could a half-toxic family be another part of the four-armed frenemy’s desires to enter Heaven besides how his boss is abusive [9] [73] [74] [89] [90]? Perhaps the first appearances of his father and brother can be loosely based on the popular animatic by Medrano that was uploaded onto her YouTube channel back in early 2015 [39]. On second thought, there could be a sudden appearance of a certain Bryrin, the four-armed frenemy’s creepy fanboy, as long as some security guards will be involved [8] [75] [76]. You know, just in case. Lastly, could Travis eventually leave his wife for Angel Dust in the forthcoming season [23]?

A multilingual fetish request. Very welcoming indeed. [8]

Another sign of Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss being set in the same fictional interpretation of Hell is how Travis from “That’s Entertainment” made a cameo in “Spring Broken”. I wonder how the rest of his sinful love life…or should I say “lust life” will be in the rest of the Hazbin Hotel series? [8]

The first season of Helluva Boss has been outstanding so far, even though the fourth episode would be considered my least favourite one for specific reasons [43] [87] [88]. We are yet to find out what will happen at a restaurant in the Lust Ring named “Ozzie’s” that was revealed in the trailer [73] [74]. I still must urge the creative team to establish a second season for 2022 as publicly referring to a series so far as “Season 1” would be ultimately pointless if there are no plans for a second season. What if there could be a tribe of hellhounds who are pirates who steer their ship across the sea in a ring that has not been established in the series yet [80] [81]? Could one of them be the girlfriend of Vortex, the male hellhound who Loona seemed to have the hots for in “Spring Break” [46]? How my fellow Hazbeans would yearn to see the depths of a second season after the completion of the first one, similar to how our English-speaking fellow kitties will look forward to the English release of the sports-themed third season of Hello Kitty Fun, otherwise known as “Sweet Moments With Hello Kitty” is undoubtful [29] [30] [31].

Please excuse my strange ideas for a new episode of Helluva Boss, my fellow murder professionals. I am not one of the show’s writers, but I am always up for outstanding fanfiction. [42]

Surely, there ought to have been an official name for the pilot of Helluva Boss. Perhaps that can be established for a somewhat remastered version of it as a new episode as that worked for an episode of Regular Show titled “First Day” that was basically the pilot, but with some extra footage to make it look like a new episode that takes place on the first day of Mordecai and Rigby working at the park [64] [65]. [42]

Surely, the I.M.P. business ought to keep running for the second season of Helluva Boss. Blitzo may not act professionally to Moxxie and Millie [42], but I believe there can be a sign of him gradually softening up to Stolas, not just because he needs his book to access the human world [47] [95] [96]. Too bad his father was unsupportive of his dreams of being a musical actor [42], but maybe a new episode could establish how he could have the determination to become one again. We are yet to see the portrayal of his sisters as one of them was mentioned in “Spring Break” by Verosika Mayday [46]. Speaking of the succubus who has the voice of an angel, I believe there can be a flashback of how she and Blitzo used to have the hots for one another before things got cold, possibly during the times when the hell of a boss had a job at Loo Loo Land [44]. I would be thrilled to see any of the Immediate Murder Professionals in new outfits in the last three episodes of the first season, quite like how I would be delighted to see Angela in some dazzling new outfits in future updates of My Talking Angela 2 [93] [94].

There may have been a report of Moxxie and Millie being rather out of character in “C.H.E.R.U.B.” [63], but at least there can be more moments of more faithful portrayals later in the first season. I do not hate that episode as I recall mostly reviewing it positively, but it would still be considered my least favourite one so far [87] [88]. But as for Moxxie, I think I have an explanation why he only has a panic attack during specific assignments. [45]

Even though Helluva Boss is full of quirky adult humour, I have gained a theory that Moxxie could eventually be diagnosed with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder during the last day of Spring sales of new Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss merchandise [48]. In the pilot, he wakes up from a bad dream about his parents getting killed and feels awful about harming Eddie during an assignment. His panicking and loss of focus in “Murder Family” could have something to do with the dream he had in the pilot as he could not bear to see two parents in the human world meet their fate [45], possibly in the same way his parents did [54]. Furthermore, the reason why he does not seem to be hesitant about killing a suicidal greedy man in “C.H.E.R.U.B.” is probably that he is only fully willing to do his job if nothing particularly reminds him of his parents’ deaths during the assignment [43]. There must be some legitimate reason for a moment that would be considered out of character [63], right? If Moxxie truly has PTSD, a new episode ought to feature a scene of him having a flashback of his parents’ deaths that does not heavily affect the usual humourous tone of the show but make him more sympathetic [54].

It is still unknown if Moxxie’s parents are dead or not but identifying specific signs in his development throughout the first season so far, I would say he could have PTSD and that his parents might be deceased. This is quite similar to how I theorised that Sam-I-Am from Green Eggs And Ham could have bipolar disorder [77] [78]. I know it is silly how he would rather have a nightmare about his parents meeting their fate than encounter his boss stalking him, but how he possibly deals with PTSD could be such a memorable aspect of his character. [42]

I still question why Stolas has an affair that greatly angers Stella besides how it is part of Blitzo’s deals with him when it comes to accessing the human world. I would be interested to see another heart-warming flashback of when Octavia was a child. Perhaps if Stolas and Stella’s marriage never became loveless, they would have had a second child. Could the fact that Octavia does not have any siblings be part of why she is often moody and rather cynical at times? We are yet to find out how often will Stolas be protected at Ozzie’s and see if Striker will try to assassinate him once again. To an extent, I can see that it is possible to root for a character without condoning their questionable actions, especially if the chunks of gold in their heart shimmer when it comes to other aspects of their portrayal. Perhaps after Patina Wainscot from the trailer for The Sims 4: Dream House Decorator dies, she can help revamp some rooms of Stolas’ mansion or the rooms in a new luxurious royal villa for him after he and Stella finally divorce [68], but without him leaving Octavia behind [73] [74]. Me and my weird crossovers [85].

A younger Octavia dressed up as the Big Bad Wolf with her father cosplaying as Little Red Riding Hood is utterly brilliant! But will the true Big Bad Wolf be her mother all along? The ending of “The Harvest Moon Festival” was a big red flag [47]. [14]

Will Brock Baker eventually decide to voice Stolas once again [42], but in a fanmade project? It worked for the previous voice actors of certain Sonic the Hedgehog characters in Sonic and Tails R [33] [34] [67], right? [45]

Perhaps a character who had only appeared in one episode could return in a new one for some further development. Striker has gained quite a lot of popularity in the Helluva Boss fandom. Due to his manipulative nature, arrogance and lack of remorse for how he tried to secretly kill Stolas [47] [95] [96], I would say he could eventually be diagnosed with Antisocial Personality Disorder or simply sociopathy [72]. I personally ship him with the one and only Verosika since they both offended a member of the I.M.P. during a musical number and how they both have a highly prideful sense of self-worth [46] [47]. As previously mentioned, I would be interested to see how the demonic vixen was still smitten with Blitzo during the times he was working at Loo Loo Land in a new episode as that would lead to some further character development in a new episode [44] [46] [79]. As for Mrs. Mayberry, will she still have a passion for teaching and such [45]? If so, could she be a new teacher for Octavia during some new homeschooling sessions? Making a one-note character return in a new episode can provide a great opportunity to develop said character even further and provide some new exploration within a new and engaging plot.

Will Striker get him next time? Could he really have Antisocial Personality Disorder? He has to appear in the next episode after the shocking ending and cliffhanger, right? [47]

Perhaps Verosika could sing another song about promiscuity in a future episode, but there will be more on what kind of music we can expect in the future of both cartoons later. Stay alert, sinners and hellborns! [46]

Could the other six rings be established in Hazbin Hotel, despite how sinners can only access the Pride Ring [20]? Despite how the Pride Ring is the largest, I am sure that it would be convenient to let sinners access the other six rings to try and somewhat solve Hell’s problem with overpopulation without an extermination? I believe that Vaggie, a sinner being able to access Hell outside of the Pride Ring under the supervision of Charlie, a hellborn would be part of keeping their relationship strong [8] [95] [96]. The back of a long-sleeved shirt based on Verosika’s Hell Tour hinted that a city in the Greed Ring is named “Mint City", along with a city in the Wrath Ring named “Los Satanio” and a town in the Sloth Ring named “Dreamsville” [71]. It would be important to establish those locations eventually, otherwise, the design of the shirt would age like milk. Somehow like how I believe there can be more locations based on cities in real-life for Angela to travel to in My Talking Angela 2 [90] [91], I would be fascinated in seeing what lies in the Lust, Sloth, Gluttony and Envy Rings of Hell. Oh. And do not forget to give those rings their own uniquely coloured and stylised skies [95] [96]!

Wouldn’t it make more sense for the food supply of Hell to be produced in the Gluttony Ring instead of the Wrath Ring [27]? I guess Medrano did not want make where certain aspects of Hell occur too obvious. [47]

How us Hazbeans would love to see what lies in the Lust, Sloth, Gluttony and Envy Rings is quite like how plenty of Sailor Moon fans would love to see more Sailor Moon compact playsets that would feature other prime settings in the anime series and the other sailors, including Sailor Mars and Sailor Jupiter [52] [57] [61] [66]. [71]

So far, we saw what Heaven looks like in more detail in “C.H.E.R.U.B.” [43]. Firstly, it was only depicted briefly in the pilot of Hazbin Hotel as a very small view in the sky of the Pride Ring [8] [14]. In the first season of Helluva Boss, we notice that there is a town for cherubs named “Cherub Towne”, along with a business that is the polar opposite of Immediate Murder Professionals [43]. There is still some speculation that rehabilitated sinners will have angelic forms once they enter Heaven, quite like how we may expect the banished cherubs to have hellish forms in a new episode they may return in. Another expansion of what Heaven is like could potentially make up for how “C.H.E.R.U.B.” would be my least favourite episode of Helluva Boss so far [87] [88]. As a supporter of gay marriage and same-sex adoption, I would love to see a petition to stop homosexuality from being considered “sinful” become successful in a new episode of Hazbin Hotel or Helluva Boss. I bet Leon Starlight, a character from one of my short stories would sign it [86]. Aside from that, I still wonder how Lisa Cooper can enter Heaven and receive glossy eyes and light brown hair [84].

The prime colour palette for Heaven that consists of several tints of blue and yellow is absolutely…heavenly. I would love to see a redeemed Angel Dust as an angel, free from Valentino’s abuse [88] [89]. [12]

I have saved one of the best things about both cartoons for last. I believe that new songs for Hazbin Hotel ought to be in different genres of music [83], just like how notable songs in Helluva Boss are in different genres [95] [96]. We are aware that the genre for “Addict” by Silva Hound is electronic dance [6]. I would love to listen to a smooth jazz ballad either about Charlie and Vaggie’s relationship or Mimzy’s materialism [8] [18]. A classical theme song about Sir Pentious being evil would be witty. Could a song for Vaggie be in any subgenre of metal to enrich her self-empowerment? Some of the new songs might be covers of already-existing songs as there was a cover of “I’m Always Chasing Rainbows” in “That’s Entertainment” [91] [92]. As for the future of Helluva Boss, I would love to listen to a jazz ballad sung by Stolas dedicated to his feelings for Blitzo. As stated in my review of “The Harvest Moon Festival”, a death metal number performed by Stella would be wicked [58] [95] [96]! Different genres for different songs in more episodes of Hazbin Hotel can increase their individuality and help the television series appeal to Hazbeans with different musical tastes [59] [60]. The same ought to apply for a second season of Helluva Boss.

As much as we adore the hell out of “Addict” [6] [88] [89], I think Angel Dust’s next song should be an R&B song to increase Hazbin Hotel’s appeal for providing different music genres [38] [59] [60]. As previously mentioned, there could be another pop song sung by Verosika if she returns in a future episode of Helluva Boss. Could her next song be sung in a specific subgenre of pop, such as country pop? If I ever get the genre of a song in Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss wrong, my fellow sinners are free to correct me. [9]

As previously stated in my review of “The Harvest Moon Festival”, there could be a reprise of an already existing song with a different set of lyrics [95] [96]. For example, there could be a second version of the C.H.E.R.U.B. jingle performed by a different team of the C.H.E.R.U.B. on a TV channel in Hell and watched by the former members [87] [88], leading to a plot about them ending up in Hell and possibly trying to seek revenge on the I.M.P. for how they were banished from Heaven. [43]

In conclusion, there are many hopes I have for the first season of Hazbin Hotel and the second season of Helluva Boss, such as new songs in different music genres and amazing portrayal and development for new characters, along with already established stars [91] [92]. Even though I miss the simpler times during specific years, I can still admire and appreciate brand new things in 2021, such as the new flaming heart emoji and the surprisingly mostly faithful revival of the Rugrats franchise [55] [56] [82]. I do not doubt that some new Italian Hazbeans have enjoyed the hell out of the seemingly official Italian dub of “That’s Entertainment” produced by the Hazbin Hotel Italiania Team that was uploaded on their YouTube channel [8]. Can a second season prevent the sinister sister series from jumping a demonic shark that swims in lava [70], taking Jaws to a whole new level [53]? Will the longer wait for the sixth episode of the first season be worth it? I have been analysing Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss since the release of the English pilots in late 2019 and I am proud to consider myself a Hazbean who has an impsona named “Gora Killiams” [22] [91] [92]. Arrivederci! Stay sinful!

I would highly recommend that the whole first season will be released on DVD soon as that can make the series still accessible just in case there is no strong internet connection in your house…or just in case Medrano’s channel suddenly becomes a victim of YouTube’s corrupt system. Other than that, I am sure that we shall look forward to the potentially official Italian dub of the pilot this December [15]. [42]

As for Hazbin Hotel, perhaps there can be another language dub of the pilot in the future [8]. Can Charlie’s dream of solving Hell’s overpopulation problem in a new way come true? There will be more hopes and theories from my fellow Hazbeans and I in the near future of both franchises, especially when the last three episodes of the first season of Helluva Boss get released. Now if you will excuse me, I need to give Lady Dimitrescu from Resident Evil Village a call [37]. [11]
